Wards Words.

Tuesday of this week is the day set apart
by the solons of the House at Lansing to
consider bill allowing justices of the peace
authority to sentence chronic drunk to the
jag works" instead of the Jail. The bare
idea Is enough to make horse laugh,
especially since the Kelley gold cure has
been exploded, barring tho gold it brings
the institution or individual who practices it..
Still 1t has done good in certain eases. But
it is founded on fraud, and that is why the
profession left it alone. Give the secret
which by the way isn't much of secret to
any well informed doctor-to the public,
and the cure would be robbed of its power
No one knows of course what the present
Legislature will do with the bill any more
than we can surmise the verdict of petit
jury, but we can only hope that they will
lay it on the table, well knowing that no
future legislature however imbecile, will
ever take it off.
Speaking Of imbeciles reminds me that
there has for years and years been attempts
made to foist another beneficiary onto the
state in the shape of "Home for the feeble
minded" but it was left for this legislature
to do the deed. Now, it would be pleas
ure to know who is going to draw the line.
If they will authorize me to do it, l will
start for Lansing OH the first train, sell off
that 600 acre agricultural farm, turn that
college into a ''Home" for such people and
move the legislature right down into it with
out further delay or nonsense. The people
of the state would gradually grasp the idea
of where we were at, and other states and
territories 'catch on" after while.
The poor taX-ridden people of the state
and it is the poor who pay the taXes-are
driven to the wall by these utterly useless
state beneficiaries. l have it from first
hands that when Jay Hubbell introduced
the bills for tthe U. p. Prison and the
''School of Mines" he did it with the hope
of getting one of the two passed. Instead
of that he got both of the useless append
ages through and the prison stood empty
for two years, or until they imported some
overflow from Jackson. Mining car be
taught at the state University as well and at
less expense, provided person wanted to
learn it, but as rule the successful miner
has got there with pick and shovel.
1 hate to give this whole thing away,
especially as am republican from 'under
the oaks" but never loved the truth well
enough to have it stay right with and loiter
around me, and shall probably shoot my
mouth off regardless of party lines, for am
like the devils in hell, politically speaking,
as have nothing to hope or expect, or in
fact that would take in the way of prefer
ment.
1t was really my hopes that the legisla-
ture would junket themselves to Chicago
and back at the expense of the state, but
their gall seemed to have run out, and so
they took to their passes and skipped. What
pow-wow they will make in the ''windy
city," 1t is to be hoped that no one will
give them away. According to reports the
Governor and Mr. Weston did themselves
proud at the opening of the Michigan build
ing and everything went along as per pro-
gram, barring the weather.

How to Live 4 Century.

First, live as much as possible out
of doors, never letting day pass
without spending at least three or
four hours in the open air.
Second, keep al the powers of
mind and body occupied in congen-
ial work. The muscles should be
developed and the mird kept active.
Third, avoid exc sses of all kinds,
whether Of food, drink, or whatever
nature they may be. Be moderate
in all things.
Fourth, never despair. Be cheer
ful at all times. Never give way to
anger. Never let the trials of one
day pass over to the next.
The period from so to rs should
not be passed in idleness or
abandonment of all work. Here is
where great many men fall. They
throw up their business and retire to
private life, which in too many cases
proves to be suicidal policy.
During the next period-the Pc
riod from rs to 100 years, while the
powers of life are at their lowest
ebb--one cannot be too careful about
catching cold. Bronchitis is most
prolific cause of death in the aged.
During this last period rest should
be in abundance.
Anybody who can follow these di-
rections ought to live to be 100 years
cid at least. There is always this
comfort, however-if we cannot live
up to our ideas always, we can at
least try our best to do so, and the
steady effort will be bringing us con-
stantly nearer them.

nine men out of a hundred. He
performed an act of bravery a little
over a year ago that might seem
simple enough to one not acquaint-
ed with the horrible consequences
that might have ensued except for
the prompt action of the, then,
gunner's mate.
This man is Harry Eilers. At
the time spoken of, the Philadel-
phia was at Baltimore. A sham
battle was being fought, and
Eilers, who was in the hold of the
vessel with several others, was
experimenting the hosting of
ammunition. They were busy at
work, when a premature explosion
of gun on the upper deck took
place. Some pieces of the burning
canvas which wrapped the powder
charge fell down the chute into the
small compartment where Eilers
and the others were at work, and
where tons and tons of powder and
thousands of shell were stored.
This, of course, threatened in
slant destruction to the ship. If
the slightest spark had have
touched the powder the Philadel-
phia would have been blown out of
the water, and not man would
have been left to tell the tale.
Every man in the hold except
one started for the deck, shouting
fire in the magazine" The one
that remained was Eilers. Death
stared him in the face, but he did
not hesitate. He fought the flames
with his hands and his feet, he
stamped out the burning canvas,
and when the last spark was ex-
tinguished he reported on deck.
As soon as the alarm of fire was
given the fire hose was manned,
but before it could be brought to
the scene of action Eilers had ac-
complished his work and the dam
ger was over. 1t was as cool an act
of heroism as has ever been per-
formed.
Soon after his brave performance
Eilers was promoted, "for extraor-
binary bravery in the line of his
profession" from gunner's mate to
gunner. He was also presented
with gold medal by the Secretary
of the Navy, and the officers of the
ship gave him handsome sword.
Eilers is young man, being but
% years old now. He has been in
the service nine years.

ANOTHER STEAM LINE.
The Messaeeries Maratime Boats
to Call Here.

MELBOURNE, Nov. 23.-Comte de
Douville Maillefeu arrived in Bris-
bane on Monday, the object of his
visit being to study the possibilities
of making Brisbane the Australian
terminus of the Messageries Mari
times steamers and connecting them
with line of vessels to New Gale
donia and San Francisco. 1t is
understood the company will aban-
don the ports of call in the South
ern colonies, run their steamers via
Torres Straits to Brisbane, and ex-
tend the service from this port
across the Pacific to San Francisco,
calling at Noumea, Honolulu, and
probably FIJI. The Comte's in
quiries so far are altogether favora-
Bile to the scheme, as he is much
impressed with the possibilities of
trade between Queensland and
France. It is believed that his re-
port cannot fail to have great infu-
ence in the settlement of a question
which has engaged the attention of
the Messageries Company for con-
siderable time past. The Comte
strongly disfavors transportation,
and believes the practice will come
to an end at an early date.

A RINGING LETTER.

We have been permitted to copy
the following paragraphs from let
ter received by the last mail from
DR.. John F. Ely, citizen of Iowa
who has been lifelong friend Of
Hawaii and an ardent advocate Of
the annexation of these islands to
the United States. His views will
be read with interest:
There is not doubt that at the
present time vast majority of the
American people are in sympathy
with the Provisional Government,
and, too, in favor of annexation.
cannot diVest myself of the opin-
ion that both Gresham and Cleve-
land are at heart favorable to either
protectorate or annexation. If
the revolution had been deferred,
say two months later, or until Mr..
Cleveland's Inauguration, so that
his administration would get the
prestige of it, treaty of annexation
would have passed the Senate by a
large majority and been signed by
the two Gs. But that the Republi-
cans should have that prestige was
uncomfortable to Grover, and that
Gresham should heartily sympath-
lie with him was but natural from
his well known personal hostility
to President Harrison. And now,
after waiting several months, comes
out the development of this secret
plot to restore the old, corrupt
monarchy.
Thanks to Mr.. Thurston and
others, who have been watching
closely, this wicked scheme has
failed. Why all this long secrecy?
Why was Gresham's letter sup
pressed, so the people at the islands
could not see it till it was believed
at Washington that Willis had Ger
tainly placed the ex-queen again
on the throne? Willis should have
the credit of being an able diplo-
mat, but he found his match in
President Dole, and has done the
next best that he could, finding his
original scheme thwarted. l ina
CINE there is a most intense feeling
of amazement, disappointment and
dissatisfaction just now among the
powers that be- in Washington at
this result. How they will get out
of their miserable fasco with any
credit to themselves or their party
it is difficult now to see. Gresham
would give anything doubtless if
able to retrieve his mistake in writ
ing that letter, or lift had never seen
the light. But he will say he could |
do no less on the report of My Com
Blount. | often wonder
what will be said at the islands, |
and what will be thought of him
when that letter reaches there, and |
not only of him, but of the whole |
gang of schemers at Washington
and elsewhere who have attempted |
such wrong against the good gov
eminent of the islands when all the
'acts shall come to light. But what
Else could we expect of the party of
mistakes. 1t has done simply moth
ng for the honor or prosperity of
