You hesitate, with the little lines COM

WEAKNESS stretching out indefinitely
before you. You are tired of teaching
music. Your voice will fail you one
of these days, and your position as first

Then she sat down before the fire

sensible to the mate rial advantages of
fered to her in this letter from Mr..
Browne, wholesale dealer in canned
goods and groceries. She loved ease
and beauty and luxury. She could use
them to the adorning of any position
that might be offered her She was
tired of work and the continual strug.
gle for bread.
Fifteen years before she had
come to the city to join the
great company of women who
unexpectedly find themselves thrown
upon their own resources for q
living. A natural musician, she taught
and studied with such faithfulness as
soon gave her place in musical cir.
cles, and at last secured her Il modestly

something approaching home in this
little suite of rooms. Her friends
dropped in of a Sunday or now and then

gregarionsness of the boarding house
or restaurant, but in her secret soul
she felt it to be a narrow and lonely
lie. She despised the makeshifts of
light housekeeping, and being of very
social nature often found her solitary
roll and coffee lacking in flavor.
But these are among the truths that
are not to be spoken at all times, or to
all people, and when Alices friends
said that her little menage was quite
the most delightful and charming
thing in the world she smiled sweetly
upon them and said it was quite charm

Economy wlth a Yenrennce.

What wonderful change has been
produced in all our habits by the ready
means of obtaining light out of the
material formerly extracted from
human effete matter, and now from
old bones! Before its application to
matches it is calculated that every
man, woman and child spent ninety
hours yearly in getting light and fire,
or rather that they would have done
so if they had used such means as
freely as we do now. At present the
consumption of phosphorus matches
per head of the population amounts to
eight daily, and, as each match con-
sumes fifteen seconds in it's use, two
minutes are spent for the whole day,
or twelve hours for the year. If we
calculate the economy of time to the
population of the United States by this
simple invention, each person saves
seventy-eight hours yearly, or, say, ten
working days, which, represented in
labor cost at half dollar per day for
the sixty-two millions of the popula-
tion in the United States, gives an ag-
gregate economy of three hundred and
ten million dollars yearly. -Nortn

And we'll mind the snowy winter morn,
When artless pride and earnest Joy were mine,
When first chose, after much careful thought,
For one loved, pretty valentine.
With fragrance OF the rose twas sweet, and in
Each corner shown tiny silver STAR
And snowdrops pale and Maybuds pink en-
wreathed
The love song that wrote to -grandmamma.
This winter day another little girl,
With sparkling eyes and wavy golden hair,
Sings, laughs and dances through the merry
hours,
Unshadowed yet by sorrow or by care.
And She too sends pretty valentine,
Deckcd with forget-me-nots and violets blue,
And holding graceful verses which begin
With kindly praise, and end with: II love
you"
And to my door il straightway comes. All, me,
How short how very short, lifes seasons arel
Time flies indeed The grandchild now is she,
And lit follows-am the grandmamma.

terdsy by Teller asking for informa-
ton as to tho anticipation Ct interest
onRovernment bonds was taken up
Voorhe, 50 said a compliance with
the [Ssolution would involve great
labor and asked Teller TO define the
scope of the resolution, asking
~ nder what circu instances" interest
had been anticipated.
Teller sad the Administration was
installed largely because its party
found fault with the financial policy
OF the Republicans. He asserted 1t
meant radical reconstruction of the
financial posicy'cf the country. He
did not see how a party in the next
campaign could ask the support OF
the people unless it dealt with the
money question. And a repeal of
the Sherman act was not dealing with
it.
Teller expressed amazement that
Republican Senators should tie their
bands by voting against the resolu-
tions calling for Information never
denied during the Republican ,ad
mihistration. The resolution was
adopted.
The repeal bill was taken up by
Hoar who read an editorial from tn @
Peoria, Illinois, Journal, relative to Il
controversy and'to the part taken by
Ernest Seyd of England in the legis-
lation of 1873. The Journal printed
what supported to be quotation OF
Hooper's'speech in the House to con-
tradict the letter Of Seyd's son. In
this quotation the words, referring to
Seyd, "who is new here" was attrib-
uted to Hooper.
Hoar had that part of Eooper's
speech read from the Congressional
4 Record in which the words "who il
now here" did not appear. "These
Words" said Hoar, "are u deliberate,
audacious,unscrupulous and infamous
forgery.
Cullom Of Illinois knew the editor
of the Peoria Journal, Barnes, aud
while he was astonished at the mis-
quotation he was sure Barnes was
not personally responsible for the for
gerry in the sense of having commit
ted or being cognizant of it.
Teller also knew Barnes and felt
sure he would be guilty Of no improp.
or conduct in connection with the
statement.
The debate contin ued for more than
an hour, and then PETER addressed
| the Senate. He read from the Presi-
dents letter to Governor Northern OF
Georgia and said it dia not dissipate
the conclusion in the public mind as
to the Presidents real opinion on
monetary questions. He might be a
monouetallist or he might be q bi-
metallist, but there was nothing to
show in his letter what kind of a met
alist he was.

Morse in his speech attempted to
justify bis Course in fiAibustering yes

being solely responsible for the re-
fusal OF the House TO permit him to

The house was then in an uproar.
The Speaker pounded vigorously for

This closed the incident.
The debate on the bill to repeal the
federal election lave Was resumed
General j. @. Black of Illinois, ex.
Commissioner of Pensions, spoke in
support of the bill. it was his maiden
speech in the House, and he was ac-
corded the closest attention. He
said he would not discuss the ques-
ton from q constitutional point OF
view, but would try TO show his reso
lutions for favoring the repeal OF
these laws enacted in 1865. The
most that could be said for them was
that they were designed to operate
under circumstances which no logger
exist. 1t was following a fierce de-
moralzing struggle. The system, was
child Of force, hatred and dread OF
men long arrayed on sectional lines
against each other, and, il ever eff
| fcient, their time had gone and the
thing needed now is the elevation OF
the franchise. II men are not tit TO
exercise this. right they should be
deprived OF the privilege. He did
not mean ignorance of books, but of

The corrupt veual voters constitute a
danger to the country that the cleo
ton laws do not meet, and they are
not designed to meet this condition
Their purpose is to protect and ele-
vate the unfortunate race by support
ing them with the strong arm of the
governm emit. They appealed to force,
not reason, and in a race issue he
would vote any amount of tax money
and any force to uphold the dignity
of the government and the rights of
it's citizens, but these laws did
neither.

A BIG ENGINEERING PARTY.
They Have Been to work In the
Lower End of the County and
Were Driven out by Cold.

Wednesday there arrived in the city
from the lower end of the county party
Of fifteen engineers, who have been to
work for some time past in running lines,
but were forced to quit on account OF the
severity of the weather. They registered
at the Hotel Yakima as from Tacoma,
and all left tor that point on the first
westbound train. They were a close
mouthed set OF men, and would say alb
solutely nothing rs to their plans or the
work they had been doing, simply giving
out that they would return as soon as the
weather would permit them to take the
field. There is much quiet speculation
as to their object, aud while no one seems
to have any definite knowledge, the gen.
eral opinion is that lines are being run
for the promised system of narrow gauge
roads which is to gridiron this county and
tap all the fertile valleys. II project of
this character is to be carried out this
coming season, we can all confidently
look forward to times of prosperity that
will put those of the past modestly to the
blush. With extensive internal improve
ments Of railroads, irrigating canals and
bridges, increased acreage and assured
big crops, Yakima will be the cynosure
OF all eyes.

EDITOR HERALD-We have received,
from q reliable source, information to the
effect that young gentleman in the en-
ploy Of the railroad company at Pasco
has made statements that he is an aspir-
ant for the Indian agents Office at the
Yakima Indian agency, and that he had
the endorsement of leading democrats OF
the state of Washington, and expressed
the belief that he will be our Indian
agent. We have no desire on our part to
have the democratic party choose for us
man who has had no experience outside
of railroad Office. Such individuals
can never have the ability or force Of
character to manage the business that
devolves on an Indian agent. Such an
office requires an experienced man to fill
it; one who has the reputation OF wear
ing no corporation collar; a man who
will abide by the regulations Of that Office
conscientiously, regardless of corporation
or political influences, to the welfare OF
the Indians and the United States Indian
department.
There are men residing in Yakima and
Pasco who would be suitable to fill the
official seat at this agency - men
whose integrity, ability, experience and
character would befit them to manage
the reins OF government-without look
ing into railroad offices for them. will
suggest the names of some of our
old friends for the position: Matt Bar
tholet and Joseph Stephenson. These
gentlemen are old residents; have had a
great deal of dealings with the Indians !;
have previously held offices OF public
trust and are tried and faithful servants,
and either OF them would beyond doubt
prove the right man in the right place.
Hoping that the authorities having the
appointing power will install one or the
other OF these honorable gentlemen as
Indian agent Of the Yakima reservation,
Very respectfully,
FRANKLIN p. OLNEY.
