The Democrats will surely have {
plurality Of the United States Senate
after the 4th of next March. 1t il
absolutely certain that the Republi.
cans will be in q decided minority
The present Senate stands AZ Re
publicans, 80 Democrats and 2 third
partyites. By the recent election the
Democrats have lost not one OF their
States, but will gain a Senator from
each of the hitherto Republican States
OF California, Montana, New York
aud Wisconsin. The representation
will then aggregate 40, or one less
than half the Senate's membership.
The third party in the Senate is rep
resented by Feffer, of Kansas, and
Kyle, of South Dakota. To these
there will be added another from
Kansas and one from Colorado, max
ing the number four. In addition the
fusionists will control the Legislatures
OF Nebraska and Wyoming, with the
aid of the straight Democrats. This
will make the coming Senate stard
Democrats 43, Republicans 80, third
party and fusionists 6. Kyle now
votes with the Democrats and others
OF the four new anti Republicans are
llkelyto do SO. In any event the
Vice Presidents vote with Kyle's aid
will make the Senate Democratic and
the majority win soon be increased by
the admission OF three or four new
Democratic territories.

After a good deal of uncertainty
Ohio finally dropped into the Repub-
lican column by sl6 majority. The
work Of finding "errors' enough to
save the State was done in Cincinnati,
California also slipped through the
fingers of the Democrats in the same
way, though they have the Legislature
all right The loss OF these States
leaves Cleveland 266 votes, or AZ
more than enough.

A friend, who is noted for her excel
lent serving of asparagus, gives the fol-
lowing suggestions for its preparations:
"The bunch should be plunged into boil
ing water which is well salted, set down
ON the root end with the tips well out
of the water, as the steam cooks them
quite sufficiently. Almost any aspara-
gus will be well cooked after twenty
five minutes boiling. 1t can then be
taken into collander and drained, the
strings carefully cut and the vegetable
arranged on toast TO serve. There are
several sauces used with it--either plain
butter, pepper and salt, or yet sauce
Hollandaise being quite popular, OF
drawn butter may be poured over it.
sometimes, when the tips of aspara-
gus are served with toast as an especial
ly dainty dish. the stalks are well boiled
and strained for soup. Asparagus soup
may be made with either stock or water.
If stock is used the white is preferable,
and cream is frequently added to make
the soup still richer. II is a delicious
soup Asparagus can be steamed to
warm it over, and can be cut in small
bits and stirred into an omelette, If any
happens to be left over from dinner. -

The Reward of Judge Woods, Who Shtekd-
ed "Blocks-of-Five" Dudley.
Judge Woods, of Indiana, the man
who shielded Dudley in the nefarious
blocks-of-five political game of 1888, has
received his reward. President Har-
rison's appointment of this man TO be
circuit justice has been confirmed by the
senate. But the confirmation was Of a
character 10 seal the presidents action
with the stamp of infamous political
jobbery. He had the debt 10 pay, and
hesitating long he at length met the OBJ
legation. But when it came TO the SEN
ate we note with pleasure the unmistak-
able evidence that a few--a very few, TO
be sure-of the Republicans of that body
entertained a sense of honor that would
not bend, even before the ignoble impor-
tunities of the administration.
Harrison was in tight place. A fail
ure of the senate to confirm his appoint
ment would compromise him hopelessly.
Something must be done. The matter
was accordingly made a strict party
measure, the Democrats opposing 20 "a
man, and PETER voted with them. Nor
did the administration give full party
vote, several senators absenting them
selves, not willing TO oppose, but unable
to support the measure undertaken by
the president.
Where have we else such spectacle?
On what page of our nations political
history is TO be found blot like thisg
A base and shameless plot for political
prestige in campaign is not alone
winked at by the man who owes in part
his victory to it, but that same outrage
figures afresh at the opening of a new
campaign, and we, the American people,
are treated to the inspiring spectacle
of our nations chief executive STOPPING
from his high place and, potent through
his proud position, rewarding with hon
ors the man who shielded this cowardly
crime.
A grand picture this-the principles of
political party perverted, the American
presidency prostituted to ignoble trick
cry. The case has had no parallel since
the appointment of Wanamaker to a
cabinet portfolio in consideration of his
raising a campaign fund of $780, 900 for
the Republican party.-Columbus (O)

An Embarrassing Predicament of Man
chester England Shipowner.
A good story is told of shipowner of
Liverpool, Quaker named Jacob, who
prided himself ON his honesty. He
would not have told downright false
hood TO save the value Of his best craft.
sacob suffered one OF his best ships 10
set sail from Calcutta for home without
any insurance upon either vessel or
cargo. AT length he became uneasy
He was confident his ship had encount-
cred bad weather, and he feared for her
safety. In this strait he went TO his
friend Isaac
He called him Friend, though Isaac
was one of the children of Israel Friend
Isaac, he said, II would like for thee TO
insure my ship which is at sea. should
have done it before, but have carelessly
neglected it. If thee canst have the pol
icy signed all ready for delivery at 3
o'clock ON the afternoon Of tomorrow, l
will send and get it, and send thee the
money in full.
Isaac did not seem 20 be anxious TO in
sure the ship, but, being told thatv no
unfavorable intelligence had been heard
from her, he said he would have the pol
icy made ont to take effect on and after
3 o'clock of the following day but 10
cover the ship and cargo from leaving
India. Early on the following morning
Jacob received a message by the hand
of captain just arrived to the effect
that his ship was stranded and her cargo
lost. This was very unfortunate.
Should friend Isaac happen 10 hear
the news before the policy was made
out he would not make il out at all or
if it was made out aud not signed he
would not sign it. What was TO be doney
Jacob wanted to act honestly. IL would
not be right TO let Isaac go on and make
out the policy under such circumstances.
Finally he hit upon plan. He sum
moned his confidential clerk and said:
Tell friend Isaac that have heard from
my ship, and if the policy is not signed
he need not sign it," The clock was
close upon the hour of 3 when the clerk
arrived at Isaacs Office. Friend Jacobs
message was delivered; the ship had
been heard from, and if the policy was
not signed he need not sign it,
II think / am in season 10 save it, ;"
the clerk said. mo, SIR" answered
Isaac promptly and emphatically. In
truth the policy Of insurance had not
been signed, for the insurer had been in
doubt. When Isaac heard the message
he judged at once that the ship was safe
and that Jacob sought TO save the heavy
item of premium he had agreed to pay.
mo, sir, he said, you are not in time.
1t is past 3 o'clock, the policy is signed;
will go and get it,
He slipped out and hastily finished and
signed the policy, and having dried the
ink he brought the document TO the
clerk, demanding in return the sum
which had been agreed upon. The money
was paid and the policy was taken home
to friend Jacob, who received it very
gladly. The end can be readily inn
agined. Manchester England Times.

charge that his administration of the

age and uses the functionaries of the
bureau ''for all they are worth in pol
itics, and, with a pleasing contempt for
Mr.. Harrison's pretenses of regard for
civil service reform methods, proclaims

aBaby is dead" Three little
words passing along the line. copied
somewhere and soon forgotten.
But afterward all is quiet again, one
leans his head upon his hands and
falls into deep reveries of all those
words mean.
Somewhere a dainty form, still
and cold. unclasped by mothers
arms to night. Eyes that yester-
day were bright and blue as the sky
of June, dropped tonight beneath
white lids, that no voice can ever
raise again.
Two soft hands, whose rose-leaf
fingers were wont to wander low
ingly around mothers neck and
face, loosely holding white buds,
quietly folded in cofined rest.
Soft lips, yesterday ripping with
laughter, sweet as woodland brook
falls, gray as the trill of forest bird,
tonight unresponsive to kiss and
call for love,
A silent home-the patter of baby
forever hushed-a cradle bed un-
pressed. Little shoes half worn
dainty shoulder knots of
blue to match those eyes, eyes of
yesterday, folded with aching hearts
away.
A Tiny mound, snow w-covered, in
some quiet graveyard.
A mothers groping touch, uneasy
slumber, for the fair head that shall
never rest upon her bosom. The
low sob. the bitter tear, as broken
dreams awake to sad realities.
The watching of other babies,
dimpled, laughing, strong, and this
one gonel The present agony of
grief the future emptiness of heart,
all held in those three little words.
