porter throws out gems of thought,

Did you ever see poor fellow-un-
fortunate, sick, discouraged, blue,
respondent, cross, dyspeptic, friend
less, foolish in his conduct toward all
tho world and himself in particular,
and pity him from the bottom Of your
hearth Feel sorry for him7 Wish
yourself in his place for while so
that he might enjoy some of the sun
shine of life and the happiness of the
universe7 If you felt like changing
places with him you are good deal
of good fellow yourself. You ought
to be we'll remembered when the
final judgement comes for this feeling
of charity. This excites your COM
passion. It's case of human suffering.
But what kind of a feeling does it
excite in you when you run across a
fellow who can not read or write7
Don't you pity the poor fellow little
bit and feel that nothing on earth
would induce you to swap places
with him, even for little while7 But
what of the fellow who can read and
won't read? Doesn't he mingle pity
and contempt in your mind' Think
of such man as political leader in
a vast wilderness of fiat money, and
see how long you can choke down
swear words. The Listen
er saw just such fellow
the other day. It was when l
went down to the Reporter Office to
get my pointers for this budget. The
old man of the Reporter asked a

year. NO." said the young man, II

the old man asked. "Yes,' he said,
IL can read, but never do. 1t is a
rule with me not to read. l hate to
read" There is nothing so disagree
able to me. But that is not the worst
of it,. The air with which he said it
was that of boastfulness, of
superiority, of accomplishment,
of pride and of glory. Would you
change positions with him to give a
taste of the beauty of the universe SO
freely given in newspapers andperiod-
icals? Lwouldn't. I can feel for the
poor and suffering. I could suffer
something for them, but for this
smart Aleck l have the deepest and
the most contemptuous pity, unworthy
of hate, too contemplate for sympa-
thy.

President Cleveland and Secy Car
Isle told a certain U. S. Senator, soon
after the repeal bill passed, that the
republican senators had acted like
sensible men, while the democratic
senators had, with one or two excep-
tions, ."acted like lot of d. fools. -
Mr.. Cleveland further stated that he
would never have signed repeal bill
that was not in accordance with the
wishes of the republican members.
What do our democratic friends think
of that? Isn't Cleveland getting to
be pretty good republican,? The
truth OF the remarks quoted above
can be verifit d-and they did not come
in by grapevine telephone, either.

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 13.I was out at
at the State Experiment Station, the
Agricultural college Of the state, To-
Gated between State Paul and Min

it a most interesting place from more
than one standpoint. I found il in
teresting from the aesthetic as we'll as
the unitarian point of view, but one
of the things which most interested
me was the statement made to me by
Prof. Green, of the chair Of horticul-
ture He told me that
fully ninety per cent of the young
men who came to the school-from all
parts of the broad state, to avail them
selves of this opportunity to gain a
practical knowledge of the best
methods for tilling the soil of Mime
sofa, went back to the farms when
they were through with the school.

does not seem to realize that there is
a difference between skilled labor and
common labor. Well, that does not
surprise us much; there are
some other things he does
not know, but he is power
fully wise, though. This is accounted
for from the fact that his hair and
liver are of the same color.
The Slayton Gazette says: "The
Worthington ADVANCE, under the new
management, is a thing of beauty

Worthington is a good town and de-

the ADVANCE is no better as a paper

is very doubtful complement to the

better papers published in the west,

A Poets Passing.

Albert Kercheval, we'll known Texas
Poet who is in the early sixties spent
many months in San Antonio, and was
well known to the Old settlers here, died
recently at his home and vingard near
the forty Miners who went to Califor-
MIA during the great gold fever and de-
termined in 1868 to settle in that state.
He wrote some admirable verses which
gave him high place in the literary
world. He was very modest, however
and avoided appearing in public. For
the past decade he had not woed the muse

culture and was as widely known In that

He Pleads Guilty.

Bud Powell, alias Charles Thompson,
who about five years ago with four Others
held up a Southern Pacific train and rob-
bed the Wells Fargo express of $4,000.
and who escaped the clutches of the Off
GERS until recently, was arraigned before
Judge MaXey. at Austin, Tuesday to an
Swer to the charge. He pleaded guilty
and is now awaiting the sentence.
Since the time of the robbery PowellhaS
changed his ways. He joined the Metho-
dist church in Arkansas and has since
lived a true christian life. He made the
acquaintance of a highly respected young
lady in Arkansas to whom he was to be
married about the time of his arrest.
She still clingS TO him and their marriage
will take place as soon as he is released
from prison.
On account of the manly way in which
he has acted and of the grand success
which have resulted from his activity
during his christian career, it is general
ly thought his sentence will be light
one.
