My Triumph.


The autumn time has come;
On woods that dream Of bloom,
And over purphng vines,
The low sun fainter shines.
The aster flower Is failing,
The hazel's gold is paling
Yet overhead more near
The eternal stars appear
And present gratitude
Insures the futures good,
And for the things I see
I trust the things TO be;
That 10 the paths untrod,
And 1 he long days OF God,
Ny fest shall still be led,
Ny heart be comforted.
Oh, living friends who love me
Oh, dear ones gone above me
Careless OF other fame,
! leave 10 you my name.
Hide II from idle praises,
Save II from evil phrnses
Why, when dear lips that spake IL
Are dumb, should strangers wAkeit2
Let the thick curtain fall
] better know than all
How little have gained,
How vast the unattained.
Not by the page word-painted
Let life be banned or sainted
Deeper than written scroll
The colors Of the soul.
Sweeter than any sung
Ny solgs that found no tongue,
Nobler than any fact
Ny wish that failed Of act
Others shall sing the song.
Others shsll right the wrong
Finish what begin,
And all fail OF win.
What matter, or they2
Mine or,another's day,
So the right word be said
And life the sweeter made2
bail 10 the coming singers
Hail 10 the brave hght-bringers
Forward reach aud share
All that they sing and dare.
The airs Of heaven blow DER me
A glory shines before me
OF what mankind shall be-
Pure, generous, brave and free.
A dream Of man and woman
Diviner, but still human,
Solving the riddle old,
Shaping the age Of gold
The love OF God and neighbor;
In equal-handed labor;
The richer l.fe, where beauty
Walks hand in hand with duty.
Ring, bells, In unreared steeples,
The Joy Of unborn peoples
Sound, trumpets, far OF blown,
Your triumph is my own
Parcel and part OF ali,
keep the festival,
Forereach the good 10 be,
And share the yictsry.
feel the earth move sunwaTd,
IOin the great march onward,
And take, by faith, while living,
My freehold Of thanksgiving.

ALIENS AND CITIZENS

A decision by Judge Sanborn In the United States Circuit Court of Appeals sitting in Minneapolis will be interesting to all practical politicians, to all patriots, ard to all aliens who wish to take adysn- tage of the loose methods of conferring the suffrage upon foreigners which prevail in some of the States Minnesota allows aliens to vote after spending one year in the United States, upon their declaring their intention to become citizens, and a number of other States are quite as loose in thie matter. But Judge Ssnborn holds that an alien-born remains a foreign sub ject until he has fully complied with the provisions of the federal statutes re- garding naturalization, one of which Is as followe: "He shall, at the time of his sp- plication to be admitted, declare on oath that he will support the Constitution of the United States. and that he absolutely and entirely renounces and ahjures all allegiance and fidelity to every foreign prince, potentate, State or sovereignty; and particularly, by name, the prince, DO. tentste, State, or sovereignty of which he was before citizen or subject" This oath. of course, can be made only when he presents himself to the court for ad- mission as citizen, at which time hs must also show that he has resided within the United States five years at least, and within the State or Territory where the court is held one year at least Minnesota and many other States have proceeded on the assumption that an aliens declaration of his intention to become a citizen and renounoe his allegiance to his former gov ernment is sufficient, but Judge Sanborn holds that 1t k not In tho power of State thus to denationslizs foreign subject who has not fully compiled with the terms of the federal statutes as to naturslizs- ton.
 It is to be hoped that this important decision will find favor with the Supreme court It is high time something was done to check the making of citizens who have not had reasonable probation.

COMFORT IN APPLES.


 Comfort me with apples" said very wise man thousands of years ago, and to- day many wise men, many wise women and many email boys make the same re- quest. There are those who do not ask to be comforted with apples, but they are people who have stomachs of such weak ness that apples will not comfort them. People who enjoy good health, or reason able degree of poor health, find comfort in apples. And 1t now appears that there may have been different meaning than the generally accepted ore in the request of the wise man. It will be remembered that before asking to be eomforted with apples he had asked to be stayed with fsgons. This, we suppose, was sn elegant way of asking for what is now known as Ca drink" It has been discovered in Germany that after man has been stayed with fagons until his nose is very red and he is known as 8 common or uncommon drunkard, he can get out of his poor and disgraceful condition by eat ing appies at every meal. It is asserted that apples, if eaten in large quantities, posses properties which entirely do away with the craving which all confirmed drunkards have for drink. Many bad cases have been cured by apples, the patti ents gradually losing all desire for alcohol.
 This is cheering, if true. If drunk ard can be cured by eating apples it will pay society to furnish the apples, if the drunkard cannot or will not If the apple cure turns out to bs reality perhaps by and by the State will provide apples for use at the jsils and drunksrds be sentenc ed to eat them.

THE RERING SEA COURT.

Pen Sketch of a Scene During the
 Hearing Personality of the
 Judges.
 Baron de Couroel, the president of the arbitrsl court, occupies the central place behind the horseshoe table and sits in the widest and highest of the gilt-frsmed arm chairs, says writer in the Pall Mall Ga- zette. That chair has history. It was made for the president of ths congress that met in Paris at the end of the Cri- mean war. Its back risss high above the baron's head, which is a compactly formed one. He looks ouick and still thought ful man and has not the blase air which one 80 oftsn sees in diplomatic company. Counsel for the United States sit on tbe left facing the horseshoe table serving ss the bench. and counsel for England to the right. did not hear Sir Richard Web ster, but like his countensnce.
 Sir Charles Ru.sell strikes me as sn abls speaker and excellent in form. A lady st the press table said that che had heard him at the "Vic" thsster orsing to elt e. ors, pleading before s jury and in the House of Commons, aud that his manner differed a good deat according tu the plscs in which he was. Shs spoks of this as showing tact. He was strong but coSoili- atory in addressing the arbitral tribunal Judge Harlsn's would be fine hesd for a painting. Grieg-r Gram, the represeuts- tive of Norway, eits beyond the American judge and ia on the fsc- Of him unsophis- ticated. HiA .uItensncs exor-ases sim pie character aud sweetness. He does not know any French, and I thought hs was at sea when lawy~rs' English was being spoken by Ihs hnur Now and aSain he looked to me to be writing private letters, az also. indeed, did the Italian arbitrator
 The attention of the American arb;tra- tors was unfisgging. Quite at the end, on the same side of the chair, sits Sir John Thompson, prime minister of Canada, @ thick-s=t, honest, unaffected looking, mid die aged persoo. His appearance pIepas- sessse nl- in his favor. To the left of the chair and next to l. site Lord Hanusn. He is in all respects fine looking, sDd has easy, genial manners Cleans of humor often shoot from his eyes He must have learned deal of life in one phase of his judicial carer. Senator Morgan Is the lsst srbitral judge on the left eide of the horseshoe table. He Is a silver-hsired and hale old gentleman, tough az hickory. 6 close listsner, and "ht" in all respects to represent the United States on this great occasion. His remarks are pointed and pungent. Judge Harlan sometimes be- trays weariness at the hsir-splItting of counsel-Senstor Morgan never. Count Viscont Venosts comes after Lord Han nen, and Is an Italian patricisn of wide ex- perience of life and of international poli- tios. Victor Emmanuel, who was no | mean judge of character and talents, took | him into his confidence after he lost Ca your, relying on bis advice, and almost | entirely in questions relating to foreign | nolioY.

 SAFETY FOR THE CoUNTRTMAN. A Contrfvance Which Prevents As-
 phyxiation When the Gas is Blown

A Contrivance Which Prevents As-
 phyxiation When the Gas is Blown
 Out.
 A machine for the prevention of suicide by the light and airy method commonly alluded to ss ''the gas route" has been in vented, and accidental deaths by Asphyxia- tion are to be avoided by the use of the same device. No more will there be need of the hotel plsesrds which tesch the "rus- tic morslist" not to die, and in their stead the thoughtful landlord will invite patron age with the sign: ''Blow out the gas If you like; it won't hurt you" No longer will the conservative old gentleman have to explain that somehow he can't get over his ooyhood preference for candles. Nev- CT again should coroner's jury be asked to conjecture whether the turning out of the gas was accidental or intentional. The odd device that is to keep down the nor | tslity rate is the invention of c. L. Ewers train dispatcher at Third and Townsend streets, San Francisco. It Is 6 burner so constructed that when the gas is ''blown | out" or the flame in any manner becomes extinguished the burner acts automatically and stops all further outflow of gas Its | principal feature, according to the Exsmi- ner, consists in a supplemental valve con | trolling the outflow, the valve being opera ted by expansion and contraction of the
 burner through heating and cooling, and the gas can flow through 1t only SO long as the burner Is in a heated condition As
 sooR ss the gas ceases to burn and the bur
 ner begins to cool the supply valve closes tightly and stops sll further escape. There
 have been twenty four deaths from gas ir

 The graduation dresses show that they are

 simpler and more 'old-fsshioned" Q girl
 can make herself, the more modish she re- alizes she is; SO we have skirts to little
 below the ankles, made prettily full, with big saahes, yokes and big sleeves. Then, too, the girls part their hair and let 1t fall in old-fashionsd quaintnsss back of their
 ears. It is 6 wonder the old professors ever let the girls leave the school at all. Gold is used on yachting dresses again. The very best quality is imperative, CT the first bit of sea wind will take all the brightness away. The very best gold even will tarnish, but, Q fact not generally known, the best gold braid or embroidery | will cleanse at 6 regular cleansing estab- 4 lishment.

Haschisch in Turkey.


 note by Nr. Fawcett, of the British embassy iu Constsntinople, on the mode of preparing Indian hemp for the market in Turkey, has lately been publIrhsd by the foreign office. He describes the hemp as vegetable, and its preparations are called by the name of haschisch. This word i- Arabic and really mssns herb Bang" "bssug," bangle" Is the Per sian. In Algeria |; is called ''RaschIsch al foksrs," or h.scbisch of the fakirs. The than the preparations which are made from 1t. In some countries, like Turkey, Egypt, Tunis and AlgsTia, it is smoked or chewed like tobacco, either alone or mixed with the latter. or with other substances Ir Asiat'c Turkey, hzschisch Is kuowu un- der the name of ''ssrsr," and Is consumed like syrup, with aromatic snbstance added to 1t, and is smoked as a pasdlie of about four grammes weight, made of paste formed of "esrar," slightly roasted, and with a strong infusion of coffee
 It is said that hsschisch smokers are ex- empted from rheumatic pains Mad joun," of Algeria, is e mixture of honey and haschisoh powder, slightly roasted. Infusions, decoctions and various bsyer- ages are also prepared directly from the plant Water distilled from hsschisch has no stupefying sction. The thick extr.c. of haschisch is usually made in the east by boiling the fowery extremities of the fresh plant with butter and a little water. When this has evaporated, and the butter has become sufficiently impregnsted with the active principle of the drug, it is strained. When prepared it is 6 sticky ointment, yellowish green in color, of c | nauseous taste, and smells both of butter and hsschisch together. This Is the strongest preparation that is made in the | east. It Is taken either in the form of | pills or mixed with black coffee, but, ou account of its pnugent taste. 1t is rarely used by the Arabs in these forms, They | prefer making 1t into psstes or pastilles adding sIl sorts of aromatic spices, such as cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg, essence oi rose, of musk, etc. The cultivation and uee of hssohisch, or esrar, was largely car ried on in the Ottoman empire in forms years, but 1t has of late been strictly pro hibited by Imperial Trade, on account O |
