Gladstone In Danger.

A sensational dispatch comes from
London, to the effect that an attempt
was made to shoot Gladstone at mid
night Wednesday night as he was
walking through st. James Park on
his way home from dinner party.
The truthfulness Of tie report is
not credited, though man By tbs
name of VIM. E. Townsend was ar
rested by policeman who saw him
mount the steps Of Gladstone's resi-
dence shortly after Gladstone entered.
When the policeman ordered him
to descend he fired at him and des-
perately resisted arrest. Townsend
says the discharge Of his revoi"er was
accidental. The following is from
his note book:
"The Irish home rule bill passed

including Saunders. Talking does
not convert. Now is the time for
action. might murder; nothing of
the kind would be moro justitiable.
Now to prove what he says. Sir Henry

night. What says Saunderson?"
Notwithstanding tho statements
that Gladstone is in no danger of DO.
ing shot and that no Importance ia
attached to the affair, thore is grow
ing suspicion that Gladstone is nearer
imminent danger than his friends IRE
willing to admit.

SILVER AND THE FARMER.

The loss to silver producers be-
cause Of the financial crime OF 1873 is
not worthy of notice when compared
with its effect upon the agricultural
and the working classes, says Farm,
Stock and Home
'"rhe characterization OF silver de-
stroyed about one-half the money
basis of the nation, thereby nearly
doubling the amount Of all debts.
Since the date Of characterization
staple products Of the farm have de-
clined in price as gold has gone up.
The consequence has been to entail
mortgage debt Of many billions of
dollars upon farming property, and
to drive many farmers FROM their
homes, displaced by the tenants of
the money lenders. The ability of
English merchants to pay for India
wheat in deprecated silver has built
up a comparative wheat market in
Liverpool that else would have been
ulpO6SlOlS o6LOto
India could not transport wheat to
England without loss, but III recent
years she has been able to place rail-
lions Of bushels upon tho English
markets, the markets that fix the
prices Of American wheat; a result
made possible only by the difference
between the bullion value of silver in
England and its mintage value in
India, difference produced by de-
monetization only.
add to the direct loss sustained
from this source, that resulting from
the generally Improbable prices aris-
ing from the scarcity of money, the
stagnation of industrial activity and
development, undue consumption
and unhealthy economy and priva-
ton, the result of hard times, con-
slider the effect of these conditions
upon agriculture, and one may read
lily account for the burden it is carry
ing because Of the insatiate greed OF
the money power in vastly augment
ing it's own resources at the expense
OF the productive forces of the coun-
try by outlawiDg silver"

One of the most persistent suitors who
tver proposed and was rejected was the
eccentric Cruden, compiler of the con-
cordance to the Bible. Mrs Abney. who
had inherited large fortune. was the
subject of his attentions. For months
and months he pestered her with calls
md letters. When she left home, he
had papers printed, which he distributed
in various places of worship, asking the
congregation to pray for her safe return,
and when she returned home he issued
others asking the wolshipers to return
thanks. Miss Abnoy never became Mrs.

1t was in Paris. A lot of high rollers
were talking about tobacco. Howell
Osborne was there, Wilkie, the retired
dentist, and several other fellows who
had hard work to spend their income.
Wilkie, who didn't smoke, offered to bet
dinner that he could fool another
member of the crowd on a cigar. Man
swore he couldn't. He'd been cussing a
blue streak because he couldn't get Per.
fectos on account of the government
monopoly. So they blindfolded him, and
Wilkie lighted cigar after cigar and
handed them to him. "Pooh," he would
say, "another Partisan failure"
By and by like lighted cigar,
which he had obtained with some mys.
terry, extinguished the flame with quick
stroke of his penknife and handed il
over. The cigar was still warm. The
expert took several puffs and threw down
the cigar, exclaiming, French, and

Breaking u Wishbone.

The divining rod is feature in all
early mythology, especially so among the
Hindoos. As the forked branch of tree
it indicated in various parts of Europe,
Asia and Africa where treasures were
hidden or where water might be readily
found. From the forked branch of a tree
it was but a step to the forked clavicle of
bird, and this bone was soon invested
with the power of securing the gratifca-
ton of the wishes of those who in break
ing it retained the forked part, for it was
the fork that was possessed of msssic
power.-New York Telegram.
