THOUGHTS READY FOR USE.

Time that writes wrinkles on the
lace smoothes away the wrinkles
from life.
Not out of the fullness of the
heart the mouth speaketh," for the
fulness of the heart is often silence.
The more we study human nature
the less we know about it. Each
new discovery is contradiction to
the last.
Tears are sometimes better
happiness than smiles.
The letters of propriety should be
worn as an ornament, not a chain.
We love the body Tor the souls
sake, but never the soul for the sake
OF the body.
The soul has depth that Joy can
never fathom. Suffering is the lead
that sounds the deep waters.-

SEEKING TEMPTATION.

The man who deliberately goes
where he knows he will be tempted,
unless he has a call of God to 90
there, virtually makes an appoint
ment with the devil. The Arabs
have a proverb: ITO think about
vice is vicious There is a great
deal said in the newspapers about
the fool who blows in the muzzle of
loaded gun, or attempts to light a
fire with kerosene oil can, but
neither OF these is to be compared in
folly with the young man who makes
and keeps an appointment with wild
and dissolute companions, whom he
knows will 20 to places, and deal
with forms Of sin, which he has al
ways been taught to shun as he
would a reptile. He cannot even
plead the excuse of the man who
thought the gun was not loaded.
Everybody knows that Intoxicating
drinks are loaded. Every sensible
person knows that bad company is
loaded. Yet there are hundreds Of
boys who have been taught from
their youth up that the billiard
saloon is loaded, that the knot of
street-corner loafers and the village
owl gang are loaded, that the novel
which they read under their desk at
Shool is loaded, and that the cigar
and pipe and barrel of hard cider are
loaded yet they persist in blowing
down the muzzle of the gun.-[Union

Fair young Hannah,

And the waves are laughing so
For her wedding

For the mild Southwestern mischief brews.

Roses white and roses red:
rose vines tangled overhead;
iune her floral treasures filings;
while above n robin sings.
prowsy bees hang on the rose;

BREAKS THE WILL.

Grand Rapids, Mich, April 22.-The
decision of the supreme court yesterday
in the great Jockey" Brown will con-
test. breaking the will, practically ends
noted case. 1t was tried in the
circuit court in this city last summer,
and the sensational details were such
that the interest was at fever heat
all the time.
James II. Brown was an eccentric but
wealthy old character who was we'll
known in this city for many years.
He had two daughters, Mary and
Alice, and was always very fond of
the latter. while for the former he
etertained a decided aversion. Alice
married and went to Colorado. and the
old man went to live with his other
daughter, who had also married and
lived few miles south of the city.
Brown died in 1891, and the surprise
was great when it became known that
he had left the great bulk of his prop
erty, valued at about 100000. to the
older daughter. Suit was at once be
gun to set aside the will on the ground
that the old man was unduly inf1u
enced.
During the trial the defense set w
several sensational points which ma

STRUCK A POOR FIELD.
Advocate of Racial Equality Finds
Scant Hospitality in Arkansas.

Little Rock, Ark, April 21.- A
woman giving her name as Mrs. Anna
Webb and claiming to come from
British India has created considerable
excitement among the negroes along
the line of the Little Rock & Fort Smith
railroad.
For several days past she has been
preaching outdoor sermons to the ne
groes, advocating social equality and
intermarriage between the white and
black races. She said she had an oppor-
tunity of marrying while she was
preaching in Texas q short time ago.
The citizens of Atkins, Ark, egged
her out of town yesterday, and today
she was delivering one of her TRADES
at GAINESVILLE she was roughly handled,
put on the train, and told not to get
off of it until she reached the state
of Missouri.

WASHINGTON. April 2@.-Postmaster-
General Bissell yesterday notiftdS ). j.
Watt, the postmaster at Columbus,
Ga, that he would remove him from
office as soon as he had selected a
successor. MIR. Watt has been post
master at Columbus for eight years
and is now in Washington seeking re-
appointment. He was appointed by
Mr.. Cleveland eight years ago After
the defeat Of the Democrats party in
1888 or. Watt changed his politics and
reorganixed the entire clerical force OF
his postotfice on IA thoroughly Republi-
can basis E"waS thereupon reanpoint-
ed by President Harrison. When the
Republican party was defeated last No
vember Mr. Watt again changed his
politics and became one of lhc most
ardent Democrats in ColumbGS. A
month ago he sent note to every
clerk and lettcr-carrier in his office
stating that since the adm n'@tration
is now Democratic it was proper that
the Columbus poStottice should be en-
tirely reorganized on a Democratic
basis, and therefore requested their
designations. One of the clerlS sent
the note he received to the civll-service
commissioners at Washington. They
found this note in plain violation of
President Harrison's order OF
last January placing all free
delivery offices within the classi-
fed service. They made report to
this effect and recommended Mr..
Watts removal. Yesterday Mr.. Watt
called on Postmaster-General Hissell.
After introducing himself and stating
the purpose of his GRAND Mr.. BiSsell
inquire Of him how he had succeeded
in holding office under Mr.. Harrison.
To this Mr.. Watt replied: - am
business man and view matters philo-
sophically. When Mr.. Cleveland was
defeated | promptly turned out the
Democratic clerks and put in Republic
cans. When Mr.. Harrison was de-
feated last fall | determined that [
would turn out my Republican clerks
and replace them with Democrats. I
have already asked them for their res
| ignations."
Yes replied Mr.. Bissell, l know
all about your Office. Here is the re-
port of the civil-service commission.
Your story saves me the trouble OF
reading it,
81 am glad to hear that, replied
Mr. Watt: 81 am glad | have come"
YES, l, too, am glad you have
come" said Mr.. Bissell, because your
being here saves me the trouble OF
sending you notice, formally, that
shall remove you as soon us l can Sc
| lect your successor.

Chicago arranged.

"It;l@o. April 22.-Again the south

DENY ALL CHARGES.
Nebraska's Accused State Officers
Speak for Themselves.

Lincoln, NeD., April 22.-Attorney-
General Hastings, Secretary of State
Allen, and Land Commissioner Hum
phrey, the three impeached state Off
GERS, filed lengthy replies to the arti-
cles Of impeachment yesterday. For the
most part the answers are the same,
differing only where they refer to the
duties of their several offices. Secretary
of State Allen says for answer to the
article of impeachment:
The duties appropriate to the office
of secretary of state during the time
it is charged he was guilty of said
alleged misdemeanor in office required
the issue and record of over 5000 no
tarial and other commissions and en-
tries therefor; records of 754 articles
of incorporation, making over 1,666
pages; 200 official bonds, making 3O4
pages; compiling and publication of
rosters of former soldiers and sailors
of the United States resident in Nebras
ka, comprising over $4,000, and much
investigation and correspondence to
make it complete: publication and issue
of laws and legislative documents; eN-
animation and record of 522 series of
municipal bonds, aggregating about S.
7S9, 700; all of which, except the duties
of purely clerical character, he must
discharge personally, and in addition he
is required to attend as a member the
following state boards, to wit: Board
of educational lands and funds, board
of pharmacy. board of public lands and
of public lands and buildings, board
of canvasSers of election returns, board
of state printing, and board of state
library.
| OF the last four of these boards he
records. Each and every one of said
boards have varied and important du-
; ties, the board of public lands and
| buildings during 1891 and 1892 being
charged with supervision of construc-
ton of ten new buildings for the sew
| eral public institutions, costing about
| $4,000, besides the general charge of
| the current expenditures in maintaining
such institutions, which was over $780,
! 600, 50 that it was neither practicable
nor possible to give contracts 4 close
supervision in person to the detail and
minutiae of the business of said board,
nor to do more than to exercise a gen
eral legislative and judicial supervisory
control over the various institutions, TO
make circuit of which would require

!. secutiye lays.

JIM HILLS MISSION.
Cleveland Sends for the Great North
western Railroad Man.

Washington, D. c., April 21.-Jim
Hall, of st. Paul, has been summoned
to Washington to talk with the presi-
dent about the financial crisis believed
to be impending. The rumor is abroad
tonight that he was closeted with the
president, but he HilD has not regis
tered at the prominent hotels. Inquiry
at the white house indicated that he
had not arrived.
The treasury plot thickens. Carlisle
is now regarded as laying the founda-
ton for a boom in 1896. He is forced
into the position against his viii by
the logic of events, and he may be
forced to leave the cabinet in order to
save himself for that occasion. The
fight is really between the bankers rep
resented by Wall street and the silver
interests in the south and west. The
two senator's from Missouri have told
Carlisle it is imperative for the preser-
walton of democratic supremacy in
Missouri to stand by the silver men
against Wall street. Wall street wants
bonds issued and is plotting continually
to drain gold from the treasury to force
the issuance of bonds. Wall street
does not want panic any more than
the administration does, but threatens
the government by continually drawing
upon the gold reserve. Carlisle is
forced to choose between issuing bonds,
thus damning him with the outh and
west, and a panic. If he holds to his
ruling that the $4S,OOO,OOO in the $780,
100000 gold reserve placed there to
make good the amount used in the re-
dempion of greenbacks is available,
it will start panic just as quickly as
If he orders that only gold certificates
shall be redeemed in gold. Cleveland
and the entire cabinet are said to be
against Carlisle. They want bonds is
sued and will excuse it ON the plea that
the Harrison administration felt the
treasury impoverished and omething
was necessary until congress could pro-
vide other means. There is talk OF
Carlisle resigning and I'm that case 1t
would be no surprise to see the treas
ury portfolio offered to J. J. HILL In
fact, Hill is regarded as one OF the
presidents most trusted advisers on
financial matters.
