his genius undoubtedly nlerited but now he
had hit upon an idea which could not fail not
only to make him rich beyond his widest
dreams, but to send his name down through
the ages along with those of Gutenberg, Steph-
enson, Morse and Edison.
Eyes Maria" he remarked to his wife in q
bigh-pitched nasal tone, which betrayed his
Yankee origin, I've struck it at last, an it's
very simple when you once get the idee. Men
have been s-trying all these ages to navigate
the atmosphere, hut they have failed because
they either depended on bag filed with hot
air or hydrogen gas, or on mechanical wings.
Now, balloon is unwieldy, dangerous an
mighty uncertain. You start in balloon to
90 to Jimson's Corners an jest as like as not
you'll fetch up in Belibuckle, Maine, or King
dom Come. You can't steer one of 'em any
more than you can steer cyclone, an when
you git ready to come down you're jest as liable
to land in the middle of an alder swamp as on
a cushion of roses.
AS for wings, there amt no man got
strength to work a pair that's big enough to
raise his weight. A birds lighter'n man in
proportion TO his bulk, an muscled different.
Moren half birds muscle is ia his breast, an
the muscles across mans chest amt only
about one SEVENTEEN Of the whole Of course,
he can't work wings big enough to hist him
self
"Now. my idee is to combine the balloon
an 1ying-machine Make a small balloon, say,
big enough to raise the wings an I40 pounds
besides. Now. Il the operator weighs 145
pounds. he's only got to exert enough force On
the wings TO h'st five pounds. See2"

sHCLAHD'S BLUFFiNC.

II England does not stop her
bluff about the Siamese affairs Of
France, there will be war. Eng.
land, ty her intri gnes, had pushed
Sism to invade AMMAN, which is
under French protectorate. W hen
the invaders had been repulsed by
Franco. Annamite troops Eng and
ackno wledged the right of France
to the Mekoeg bound ary and when
everything was apparently settled
an Annsmite mandarin, claiming
to be afraid of the population, asked
an es sort TO make safe his return
into Siam, when, having performed
this office, the Franco Slamtse small
company va resting before starting
back, when the same mandarin
went carefully behind the French
commanding officer, Grosgurin, and
without saving a word blew his
brains out with a revolver.
At that signal band of cut
throats, directed by him, massacred
the sleeping Annamite soldiers.
When France asks separation Eng
land wants to interfere and seems TO
try to bluff France into leaving the
blood of Grosgurin and her national
honor unavenged. Never were such
offensive pretensions and over
bearing seen before and we
wonder what England can ex-
pect from it, for she must very
well know that France possesses a
very fine and strong navy.
Besides the dispatches tell us this
morning that Russia backs France.
So if England intends not to back
out from her bluff, there will be a
big.~naval war, probably followed
by continental war.

insisted upon the pledges of his
party. He committed himself ex-
pllcitly and in set terms to the duty

II will take more than the inter-

whether these are timld republicans
or compromising democrats who
care more for protection than they
care for the good faith Of their
party, to outweigh Mr.. Cleveland's
deliberate and unequivocal protes-

made solemnly and publicly to the
whole country; the denials of it
come from the back stairs and the
back kitchen.

CleveIand's inaugural Pledge

Cleveland'S inaugural Pledge.
From the New York sun
Those lnjudicious lrields or Sc
cret foes of Mr.. Cleveland, who are
industriously engaged in sowing the
report that he is opposed to the
democratic tariff doctrine, and in.
clined to a mere revision Of the tar
if upon lines essentially protection.
list and republican, seem to have
forgotten the earnest and solema
language in which he affirmed that
doctrine in his inaugural address.
"The people of the L nited States,
he said, "have decided that on this
day the control OF this government
in it's legislative and executive
branches shall be given to politi-
cal party pledged in the most posi-
tive terms to the accomplishment of
tariff reform. They have thus de-
termined in favor Of more iust
and equitable system of federal tax
alton. The agents they have chos-
en- are bound by their promises, no
less than by the command Of their
masters, to devote themselves IN
remittirgly to this service
"When we proclaim that the
necessity for revenue to support the
government furnishes the only
justification for taxing the people,
we announce truth so plain that its
denial would seem to indicate the
extent to which judgment may be
influenced By familiarity with
perversions of the taxing power"
We cannot see how there can be
any doubt about Mr. Cleveland's
meaning and position. His language
is plain and unambiguous, with no
trace of the somewhat colorless
generalization which sometimes
pervades his official style. He
could not have put more strongly
the fact that the democratic party,
! and consequently his administration
and the democrats in congress, are
"pledged in the most positive terms
to the accomplishment of tariff 1e.
reform" Here are these most
positive terms:
1--WE denounce republican pro
lection as fraud, robbery of the
great majority Of the American
people for the benefit of the few.
We declare it to be a fundamental
principal of the democratic party
that the federal government has no
constitutional power TO impose aud
collect tariff duties, except for the
purpose of revenue only; ard we de.
mand that the collection of such
taxes shall be limited to the
necessities of the gov ,rnment when
honestly administered
The tariff for revenue only is the
more just and equitable system of
federal taxation" to which Mr.
Cleveland refers; and this demo.
cratic proclamation that the federal
government has no constitutional
power to impose and collect tariff
duties except for the purpose Of
revenue only seems to him plain
truth. The democratic legislative
and executive branches care bound
by their promises, no less than by
the command of their masters. to
devote themselves uuremittingly TO
this service" of setting ny Just aud
equitable system of federal taxation,

LINCOLN Us a iVersiiier.

II. j. McMunn, of San Antonio, Tex,
says: IAN old friend of nine named
Cabaniss recently told me that Abra-
ham Lincoln worked for his father in
1882. AT that time great rise occurred
in the Sangamon river. and steam
boat, taking advantage of the high
water, came up the stream. My friend
was then child. and the whistling of
the boat frightened him. Lincoln, then
a tall, angular young man. took him IN
his arms and carried him aboard the
boat. After the departure of the craft
Lincoln wrote some rhymes about the
incident, one verse of which the Cab
aniss family preserved. 1t runs thus;
1.-THE Illinois Suckers, green and raw,
Collected on the Sangamaw
To see n boat come up the stream;
They surely thought 1t was a dream.
"For this doggerel he invented a
melody, and he and others sang it. The
song never found its way into print.
The elder Cabaniss always told his chill
dren that the amiable. kindly Lincoln
would develop into great man."

as circumstances allowed. His life in
Kentucky and Indiana has been given in
minute detail because his son was still
with him then, but very little has been
said of his various removals in illinois.
His first location was in Macon county
few miles from the present city Of
Decatur, "in the timber" an the phrase
was, for in those days no one imagined
that the prairies would be settled in the
lifetime of living man. Indeed several
of the early gazetteers of illinois stated
that "those broad grassy plains would
remain for ever as common grazing
grounds for adjacent farmers" In a
few years, however, 1t was discovered
that the prairies were more fertile than
the woodland, and Thomas Lincoln was
all in a fever to move again, and did.
In 1S4l he made second removal. but
to what place is not recorded, as he did
not remain long. "He still listened" says
Herndon, "to the glowing descriptions
of prosperity in adjacent counties
His third and last move was to the new
est part of Coles county, then called
0ooSe Nest prdlrie' near tho Preoeht
hamlet of Pennington and eight miles
south of Charleston the county town
His last plaintive utterance to his ia
nous son was that his little tract OF
land bore "the usual incumbrance--a
mortgage for $500"
On the 18th of January, 1851, he died
there at the age of seventy three years
and eleven days. From letter written
the following November by Abraham
Lincoln to his stepbrother. Johnston we
learn that the writer paid the mortgage
and secured "the eastern forty acres for
mother" There the president elect saw
her early in 1861 for the last time, and
there she died April 10, 1869 A hand.
