DREAM FACES.
sbndowy Couptensnc That Pass Before
People Even when wide Awake.

| ebndowy Counter ances That Pass Before
People Even when wide Awake.
II may be serviceable TO remark that
visions sometimes present themselves to
as in the dark when we are awake, per-
fectly sane, unaware of any sort of
physical disturbance and without any
effort of the imagination. They are
dream stuff, so to speak, and the pro
cursors of the dreams that fill our minds
when quite asleep. In this way lady
used to see showers Of red roses, which
turned into fight of golden speckles or
spangles; and not only were the roses
presented to her vision as distinctly as
real flowers in broad daylight might be,
but she could smell their perfume.
There is nothing like that in my ex-
perience, except that at infrequent times
of fatigue share the sensations of those
who are said to have discovered a rose
scent flowing from and about them.
An evanescent but very distinct violet
scent fushes from my hands, or so |
fancy. But MN. Maury and Galton
relate stories of faces seen in the dark
in like manner-faces seemingly stand
ing off upon the air and coming and
going, as if with will and purpose of
their own. M. Maury's experience
seems to have differed from mine in
this particular. In his case these phan-
toms nearly always represented persons
known to him.
In mine it has never been so on sin
gle occasion, and the difference is
noticeable one. AS look at these faces.
asking myself who was like that or that.
fnd no answer except in fancied re-
se,nblance to some historical or myth

view as entirely strange and surpris-
ingly original" Possibly Blake's Wis
ions were some such faces as these, pre-
sented to his eyes in broad daylight.

wonderful, dreadful drawing, 1.-THE
Ghost of Flea" is precisely such a
transcript as l could have made by the

Under my own eyelids l have seen

astir with animation. But the greater
Va thCbi diO icU VI buc bOO bcIIl-
bic kind. After the fact that nothing
foreknown or familiar ever appears
among them, the next most remarkable
thing about these visions is that they
often look like the feeting embodiment
Of some passion or mood of the mind;
usually not the bettermost. Some faces
expressive of great nobility and seren-
ity appear, but have never seen among
them the mask of pity, of love or any
soft emotion. Grief the most despairing,
scorn, cunning, pride, hate, inquiry, en-
vious or triumphant mockery--no hu-
man face that ever was seen, feel
sure, displayed these emotions with
fullness and intensity.
II is not the characteristic of all, but |
It is of some to an almost appalling ex-
text: and If Blake did see these faces,
either in daylight or in darkness, he

Where Alligators Are Harmless.

Though very numerous, alligators
are not generally regarded as danger
GUS in Paraguay. have often seen
the young negroes and Indian boys
swimming within a few yards of
them, and the reptiles paid little at
tention to their play. Cattle, too,
wade about the flooded grass lands
in search of pasturage and are rarely
molested by alligators. In fact, un-
less driven to bay or ravenous with
hunger, they dare not attack man or
the larger animals, but they are al
ways on the watch for smaller prey.

The green color of ocean water in
high northern latitudes depends upon
the number Of medus@ and other minute
animal forms which inhabit it. The
deep green northern seas literally swarm
with these miniature creatures, in some
places as many as 1873 of them having
been found in single cubic inch of
water. In this proportion cubic foot
would contain 221 ,1S4; cubic fathom,
47,775, ,744, and cubic mile 47,776, ,00O,-
100000. From soundings made in the
vicinity where these creatures are found
in such immense numbers it is probable
that the water will average mile in
depth.
Whether these forms occupy the whole
depth or not is uncertain. But whether
they do or not gives us a stupendous
idea Of the immensity of creation, for, if
the number Of these little living things
in the space of one single mile be 80
great, what an infinite number must be
required to give color to the hundreds
of thousands of cubic miles contained in
the oceans of the globe!-Philadelp

the officeholding class alone which
is willing to spend these. and,
having spent them, they get the
Offices. Thus in every city is produced
a coterie of men who are always thought
of when vacancy occurs in a public
position, just as other ones are thought
of when medical service is needed. and
again others when lawyer is wanted.
These men are apt to be skillful in the
discharge of their duties, and If no
weightier charge can be brought against
them than that they are politicians,
they are not liable to suffer much In
public esteem. Gentlemen like those
who compose the ''divorce party" can
do very valuable work in watching and
criticising their methods, but wnen an
attempt is made to do away with them
entirely, the chances are thousand to
one that it will prove abortive. The

THE DIVORCE PARTY.

There are some good names attached
to the so-called .'divorce party's" call
for Saturday night mass meeting, and
some Indifferent ones If they have no
higher object than to divorce municipal
affairs from party politics. as they de-
clare in their call, theirs does not seem
a very serious purpose. If their idea is
really to raise the standard of honesty
and efficiency in the public administra-
ton, anything they undertake which is
calculated to this end will receive the
GLOBES hearty Endorsement. Popular
movements of this sort are not
very promising enterprises. however,
as rule, because they usual
ly content themselves with passing
resolutions and making speeches. Their
leaders have neither the time, the incli-
nation nor the patriotism to do much
besides. They have to disclaim all am
bition to hold Office in order to show
their sincerity, and if they do not hold
Office they have to earn their living
some other way, and this generally
leaves them little leisure for anything
else. The truth of the matter is that
politics is business, and people learn
it as they do any trade. The rousing of
voters, the selection of candidates, the
manipulation of campaigns consume
energy and long hours of work. 1t is

f. Lyons, Local Forecast Official,
A REPUBLICAN DANGER.

1t is given out upon Democratic au-
thority that combination arrangement
has been agreed upon in Kansas be-
tween the Democrats and Peoples
party. Confidence is expressed that
this will insure the loss of the state to
the Republicans. On the basis of the
most recent votes, the Kansas Repub-
Hcans have plurality; but the two
other parties, voting together, form
considerable majority. The Democrats
are to be allotted about one-third of the
congressman and part of the state
officers. They have no chance to get
anything by themselves, as the smaller
of the three parties; but, if by this CO.
operation they can gain membership in
congress, they will be effecting some
thing toward the promotion of the prin-
eiples of the party. 1t is question for
the political casuists how far parties
with principles not altogether harmoni-
Gus may work together. The practical
politician fancies that his persuasion
has accomplished something when it
elects part Of its representatives, and
has defeated the main army of the OPP
position. At all events, such combina-
tons have been had at times by all
parties, and the Republicans propose to
combine in the Southern states. if they
can. with the Peoples party, to
defeat the Democrats. 1t is not
surprising that they are alarmed
at the prospect Of losing the
electoral vote of Kansas. They
cannot spare it and have any chance for
success. They expect such action there
will be followed by a similar co-opera-
tion in Nebraska, Minnesota and the
Dakotas. There are no possibilities of
success for them without these states.
AS far as the final result is concerned,
1t is Of no moment to the Democrats
whether the electoral vote of these states
is with them or the third party. Taking
it from the Republicans is the only ma
terial point. If the election is thrown
into the house, they have the states then
to elect. 1t may well be a matter of alarm
to the Republicans to see any pooling
projects i'll vogue among the two other
parties in their states.

Silver Contrasts.
New York World.

New York World.
The Republicans of the East are pos
ing as the peculiar champions of honest
money, though two-thirds of their con-
gressmen voted to fix day for taking
up the Bland free coinage bill.
In President Harrison's own state the
Republican convention declared in favor
of dollars ''of like value in the payment
of debts" In 1890 the Republicans of
Indiana Endorsed the Sherman act as
"a long yet prudent step towards free
coinage"
The notes issued under the present
law, redeemable in Recent silver dollars,
are legal tender for all debts and for
government dues. Silver dollars issued
under a free-coinage law would be of
''like value with gold in the payment
of debts" And it is for this reason that
the debtor classes" of the West and
South cIamor for them. They think
they can scale down their debts by pay
ing them In ''cheap money"
This is the kind of money that the Re-
publicans of Indiana favor.
Contrast this dishonest declaration
with the hOneSt-mOney resolution of the
New York Democrats:
We are against the coinage of any silver
dollar which is not of the intrinsic value of
any other dollar or the United States.
Or with this equally explicit utterance
of the Rhode Island Democrats:
Every dollar of American money, whe Their
of gold silver or paper, ought to be of equal
value the world over.
The fat of the government makes
dollars ''of like value in the payment Of
debts" but it cannot establish intrinsic
values nor reach to other lands. The
Republican professions in favor of
''honest money" are fraud.
