How's This For Twins?

The census figures of the town of
Tompkins, Delaware county, Conn,
disclose the remarkable case of Abram
Osrom, who is the father of twenty
seven children, of whom twenty are by
one wife. Mr.. Ostrom's first wife, to
whom he was married in 1855, bore him
four children. At her death he married
again, and his second wife presented
him with three children. After her
death, and in 1878, he took for his third
wife young woman of IS years, who
has already born him twenty Children
ten pairs of twins of whom eleven are
living. Inasmuch as Mr.. Ostrom is
only "a and his prolific spouse is not
yet 35, the possibilities of the case are
bewildering.

Mary's Claim.

A little girl is reported to have died
near the imaginary line in Oklahoma
which divided the recently opened res
servations from the remainder Of the
territory just as the signal was given for
the grand rush for lands. The child and
her father were alone and unknown, but
the beauty Of the one and the still, deep
grief of the other moved the strong men
of the frontier to acts Of admirable SYM
pathy.
A runner on swift horse located a
homestead, and returning placed the
father of the dead girl in possession of
it. The body of the child was trans
ported to the claim and buried upon it.
Afterward it was discovered the re-
naming one of the unfortunate couple
was absolutely penniless, and purse Of
money was given him with the hope that
the claim will prove haven offest to
him and that the homestead shall al
ways be known as "Mary's claim

To Find Your Railway

To Find Your Railway Car When Abroad.
Every traveller is aware of the trouble
and annoyance that is often experienced on
long railway journey when, after alight-
ing for few minutes from ones carriage,
the bell rings and the driver blows his
whistle, while the bewildered traveller is
frantically running up and down trying to
recognize his carriagefrom a dozen others,
all built alike and painted the same color.
Here he cannot, as IN England, jump into
an empty compartment, for in France the
practice of overflling prevails, so that he
must either find his place or lose the train.
The Paris-Lyons company has adopted an
ingenious device which will put an end to
all this worry and also make it easier for
trains to start punctually from intermedi-
ate stations.
1t is due to an engineer, M. Edouard Gros,
and was to be seen working for the first
time last evening on the Marseilles ex-
press. M. Gros remarked that the number
painted outside the carriage, often running
into five figures, is the very last thing that
will strike a passenger or fix itself in his
memory. His device consists in placing
outside the carriage an enameled plate
with, as he calls it, symbolical figure in
black and white.-Paris Cor. London Tele-
graph.

Women who Talk Only of Their Aft

Women Who Talk Only of Their Affairs.
AS plea for the women who can talk
enly of their own affairs, one may quote
DIR. Johnson's words:
MADAM" he said to a woman who was
complaining that women could talk of
nothing at all outside of their own four
walls, "why blame the woman for the only
sensible thing she could do-talking of her
family and her affairs? For how should a
woman, who is as empty as a drum,
talk upon any other subject? Ifyou speak
to her of the sun, she does not know it
rises in the east; if you speak to her 81 the
moon, she does not know it changes at the
full; if you speak to her of the quee6, she
does not know she is the king'swife. How,
then, can you blame her for talking of her
family and affairs?"

We are obliged to Mr.. Platt for let
ting the public know through The
World what he thought he wished the
people to think he thought about the
situation at Minneapolis. But we are
compelled to say that, sorry as we are
for Mr.. Platt's impending retirement
from politics, the reputation he has
earned for accurate reporting will not
secure him permanent job on The
World.
Our compliments to Mr.. New for his
very accurate work in reporting for The
World the situation at Minneapolis.
News newspaper training has stood
him in good stead. Should he wish to
retire from the consular service or from
partisan politics he can obtain steady
job in the news department of The
World.-New York World.

n utter trairorous words.

The close of the campaign found
the Democrats distinctively on the de-
fensiye. They started out with loud
and vigorous onslaught upon the al
legged iniquities of the protective tariff
They closed with an earnest disclaim-
er of any intention to harm the pro
tectiye tariff, and with industrious ee-
forts to divert the minds of the people
from this and their demand for the re
peal Of the State bank tax. For this
purpose the bugaboo Force bill,
which is no issue at all. was held up
to brighten back into the ranks the
wavering lines of the party in the
South. The position Of the Democrats
at the last was that of seeking to evade
every prominent issue which has been
precipitated by themselves.

A pretty spectacle to the All Seeing
eye, or to any one who paused to COM
prehend it, was that last Tuesday. A
prettier one cannot be painted, or inn
agined. God, in giving birth to this
Republic, intended on each recurring
fourth year that it should be picture
for all other nations to gaze upon :
unequalled and sublime. The Re
public was vast amphitheatre
twelve million freemen, and million
or more women were the participants.
From the rock-ribbed coasts of Maine,
from its pine clad forests, came the
freemen III the exercise of their suf-
frages; from the hut of the fishermen
on the banks of the Hudson; of the
miner in wealthy Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Illinois; from the farm, the anvil
and the boom of the center of this vast
empire, from the hut of the trapper in
the snowy Sierras, from the gold and
silver mines, and from the orchards
and vineyards OF the Pacific coast,
could be seen issuing the voters to
their respective polling place, and
dropping their choice into the ballot
box. Each and all were part of this
government, free and independent
right that their forefathers gave them
in the declaration of independence
and the constitution of the United
States. 1t was a right of all the peo-
pie, by the people and for the people
-imperishable from this earth, and as
long as the proper safeguards are
thrown around the ballot box, this Ma
ton will continue to be Nation of
freemen having a government of the
people, for the people and by the
