Irish Times.l


An inquest was held at Dover recently
on the body OF a young lady named
Margaret Dawtry Doig, aged %, belong
ing to London, whose body was found
on the rocks near Dover early on Mon
day morning. According TO the evil
dence, the height OF the cliff from

washed out to sea had it not been wedged
between two rocks at the base Of the
cliff. The following letter to brother
of the young man with whom she kept
company was read by the coroner
Your letter destroyed the last hope

You are very kind when you offer to

What beautiful shroud for the dead Old Year,
Which Is gone from us past all recall;
Emoalming in purity all its good deeds
For the bad 1t Is Charity's pail.
Let us bury the bad In the grave with the year,
And remember them never n day;
While We cherish the good through the ages to

They will bless US for aye and for aye.
What beautiful gown for Old Times new bride,
In her loyeltness, beauty. aud youth.
Is this mantle % innocence, softness, and grace,
The emblem OF love and OF truth.
May the VOWS OF the day which are warm on the

With a prayer that the Father might hear,
Be treated not lightly and soon cast aside,
But be true and performed In His fear
What beautiful robe for the infant New Year.
For the stranger bur Just come to earth;
Untainted and guileess the beautiful babe,
And nations rejoice at its birth.

There be some act recorded above,
Some kind word be spoken, some burdened soul

And made % rejoice ia Gods Iowa.

THE RICHMOND DIsPATcH's CORE
spondent is correct in his statement con-
corning the manner in which ex-Gover-
nor Wilson, of West Virginia, came by
the title of Windy" but the DISPATCH
is wrong in assuming that it was con-
ferred uIou him by the Republi-
cans. At the time he delivered his
famous speech on the railroad ques-
ton the Legislature was overwhelm-
ingly Democratic, and there were many
members of the q ority who ridiculed
the views set forth by Mr. Wilson.
They changed his middle name, Will
lis. to Windy, and he has since been
known III the State as Windy Wilson.
A few years later, when he became a
candidate for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation, his Democratic opponents used
his railroad views against him, and
in some localities with considerable eff
feet. The Hon. +. Boyd Faulkner. a
brother of the present Senator from
West Virginia, was known throughout
the contest as the railroad candidate.
The Governor was strongly opposed by
the late Senator Kenna, by Attorney
General Watts, and other distinguished
West Yirginisns, who spoke of him and
wrote about him as Windy Wilson,

did say on last Sabbath evening, but to deny
some things was accused of that l did not
say. did not mention pianos or piano play

with saying is this: All whisky sellers, all
whisky drinkers, gamblers and all proud,
fashionable church members with all Sabbath
breakers are going to hell unless they repent
have the Word Of God to bear me out in
this. If any honest soul will take trouble
enough to find the 2nd chapter of Habakkuk
and read the fifteenth verse, and the 4th
chapter of AIalachii and the first verse, they
find out whether it is abuse or truth that
have said. Surely | haven't got that Woe
