cool, and supposed that everybody had
gone inside, but presently, on the other
side of the pillar, il heard man and a.
woman TALKING didn't intend to be al
listener, but didn't feel like running
away and so could not help hearing
what they said. They were discussing
spiritualism and the future state. The
man said; Il do not believe in the pop

that we merely become resolved again
into the lump of the essence of life, what
ever that is, without any distinction one
from the other, or any chance of recog-
milton. do not believe we retain our
physical outlines, or in fact have any

It was in the last days Of the reign Of
terror-the year 1898. Hundreds and
thousands had perished under the French
guillotine. France groaned with the
tyrannies Of Robespierre and the Jaco-
bin club. The last group Of sufferers
had had their locks shorn by Monchotte,
the prison barber. go that the neck might
be bare to the keen knife Of the guillo-
tine.
The carts came up to the prison, the
poor wretches were placed in the carts
and driven of toward the scaffold, but
while they were going toward the scaffold
there was an outcry in the street, and
then the shock Of firearms, and then the
cry: "Robespierre has fallen! Down
with the Jacobinsi Let France be freeE
But the armed soldiers rode in upon
these rescuers, so that the poor wretches
In the carts were taken on to the scaffold
and horribly died.
But that very night these monsters Of
persecution were seized, and Robespierre
perished under the very guillotine that
he had reared for others, all France clap
ping their hands with Joy as his head
rolled into the executioner's basket.
Then, the axes of the excited populace
were heard pounding against the gates
Of the prison, and the poor prisoners
walked.out free. Ny friends, sin Is the
worst Of all Robespierres. 1t Is the ty-
rant of tyrants. II has built prison
house for our soal. It plots our death,
It has shorn us, for the sacrifice; but.
blessed be God, this morning we hear
the axes of Gods gracious deliverance
pounding against the door Of our prison,
Deliverance has come. Light breaks
through all the wards Of the prison.

THE ORATOR is DEAD.

1t is question whether Demosthenes
or Cicero would move this generation
with their tongues; whether Clay,
Webster and Henry could sway the
Americans of today by their matchless
oratory and imprisoned appeals. But
one minister in dozen of today really
effects an audience in a visible manner,
and the minister has the advantage of
united and sympathetic hearing.
Mr.. Ingalls, recent discussion of
orators and oratory has attracted atten-
ton and called out many expressions of
opinion, the majority being to the effect
that the orator has had his day; that his
occupation is gone, and that men are
no longer affected by his art This
theory is based on the belief that some
thing has occurred to change the char
acter and disposition of the human race;
that the man whom God made in the
first instance has been supplanted by an
other sort of creature, who, for instance,
no longer loves. but is rapidly drifting
toward universal celibacy; who is no
longer governed by "senses, affections,
passions" but by what he reads in the
newspapers.

WHAT DOES PRE- DENT CLEVELAND
PROPOSE?

1t is none of our political business, pre-
sumably, of course it IS not, but the
average American citizen, without re-
gard to his party affiliations, must be
growing weary of the posing and mani
festos of the individual whose availa-
biiity and power came Of opportunity
rather than of any kind of greatness,
especially when the whole country is
confronted with threatened commercial
disaster, not to say with financial revolu-
ton. Il might be all well enough, with
a large gold surplus in the treasury, and
millions of reserve balances in the banks
of the country, for president TO snub
his party followers and leaders, in or out
Of congress and to proclaim from the
White House that ''ofiice-seekers would
best conserve their own interests by leav-
ing him alone" but the same wires that
flash this pompous ukase over the ccun-
try also bring tidings of shrinking secu-
rites, of falling stocks and of falling
banks. Whether this is a nation of
office-seekers or not, its president Is
charged with great and grave response
bilities. The people at large are more
interested in the industrial and CONNER
cial status of the country than whether
Tammany is snubbed or the Populists
recognized. 1t was not expected under
the policy laid down in the Democratic
platform, that Dir. Cleveland could go
on, as NJ. Harrison did, paying off five
millions of Indebtedness every month,
but they hoped that the business interests
OF the country would rather be conserv-
ed than threatened. We submit that
the people Of the United States have rot
the faintest idea of the intentions of Mr..
Cleveland and his administration, touch
ing the silver question, the tariff prob
lem or national finances. His harmless
may be, in the estimation
Of bis partisan admirers, flashes from
very jove, but they are chaf to the I'M
easy and embarrassed men of the great |
centers who do not know
but that the premonitory tremblingS felt |
beneath their feet is a vertable earth |
quake. They don't care whether Mr.. |
carries out his threat against |
his hungry crew of late supporters or
not; what they want, and what the /
country wants, is an Indication Of ey-

EAST AND WESf

notwithstanding the blow and buster
made by eastern inventors-some of
them-over the mortgage business in
Kansas aud the west, the situation is not
nearly so bad here as it is in some of the
eastern states, all the circumstances and
conditions considered. Bulletins Nos.
40 and 43 issued from the census bureau
are devoted to statistics of farms, homes
and mortgages in Rhode Island and
Vermont respectively. In the first,
among one hundred farm families,
twenty-five hire their farms and four
teen own with incumberance: while in
latter, eighteen of one hundred hire and
thlrty-siN own with iucumberance, the
annual interest charge per family be-
ing $50 in the latter, and $50 in the
former. The liens on the farms IN Yer
mont amount 10 a fraction less than 40
per cent. OF their value, aud III Rhode
Island to little less than IS per cent. of
their value. In new ana undeveloped
country 1t is matter of necessity in
most cases for the settlers to incur debts
in order TO equip their farms and make q
start. Such conditions do not exist in
the states named, but the rather they
have had the advantage of centuries of
improvement aud should long since have
attained 10 the highest degree of de-
velopment, reinforced the while by good
markets at their doors.

THE CROP OUTLOOK IN WESTERN
KANSAS,

A gentleman who travels extensively
over Kansas returned to Topeka, Wednes-
day, from trip to northwest Kansas,
and gave the Press an account of exist :
ing crop conditions which strikes hap
py medium between the highly colored
reports Of enthusiastic newspaper cor
respondents and the rather gloomy tale
sent out by the secretary of the sta te
board of agriculture:
sit is only within the past week" he
saws. 'that the wheat has had ghost Of
a show to yield anything like a fair crop.
The winds in the west part of the state
have been worse this spring than any
year since the seventies. This, added to
the scarcity of rain. caused al! prospects
OF rich golden harvest to vanish into
rapidly moving air. But during the past
week ccpious showers have given new
life to the languishing small grain and
created well founded hope of an ex-
cellent corn crop.
''Raal estate in mos: localities is boom

days and 100000 on Sunday and it is
said that tickets of admission, originally
one franc, or a little more than 10 cents
in our currency, were often sold at sec
ond-hand for amounts ranging from to
- cents.
So far, the attendance at Chicago, in
Guiding the abnormally large attendance
on the opening day, has averaged less
than a 600, or 1000 less than tie atten-
dance at Philadelphia, 81, 900 less than
the attendance at Paris, and from 100,-
600, to $50, 900 less than the attendance
deemed necessary to make the fair a
financial success.
Very great allowance must be made,
of course, for the incompleteneSs of the
fair and for the unreasonable and dlsa-
greeable weather-two important rea-
sons why tourists should not go 10 Chi
cago now--but after due allowance IS
made on these accounts only very
doubtful prospect of success remains.
The probability is that the managers
of the fair will seek to avert disaster by
opening the gates on Sunday.

That's the Way to Do 1t.

From the Newton kansan.
The Kansas City, Mo-, banks have no.
titled the business rien OF that city that
they will not accept at par, the personal
checks of their customers on local banks.
This mears that the Kansas City dealers
do not care for their Kansas customers
trade any further than it is to their in
terest in dollars and cents. As there is
no articles of merchandise sold in Kan
sas City that is not sold by wholesale
dealers in Kansas, at practically the same
price, the way TO bring those fellows to
their senses is to purchase from Kansas
dealers exclusively, all of whom receive
personal checks at par.
