Run Down BALLolssox SUFFERS

The excitement consequent to elee
ton is now over and other matters
naturally come before the people for
their thoughtful consideration, among
these will come, at this time, the punish
ment of those individuals who were
Indicted at the last term of our county
courts for ballot-boX stuHing at Lans
ford, at late primary election. The
District ATTORNEY, we understand, is
pushing the case and will make an
earnest effort to convict and have
punished those who perpetrated this
crime against the people, notwithstand-
ing the obstacles placed in his way by
the abettors or accomplices of the
roures who are under indictment.
Some valuable and very necessary links
in the case are said to be missing since
the Democratic convention. They are
the certificates Of the election of dele
gates Illegally issued by tine corrupt
election board and which, according to
the party rules, should have Teen

chairman. This gentleman must have

There is in Galloway, Scotland, an an
Client ruin known as Sweetheart abbey.
Within its ivy covered, storm battered
walls lies buried the affecdonate and de-
voted Dervorgill, with the heart Of her
husband, John Baliol, embalmed upon
her breast. Lovely in their lives, in
death they are not divided. The crum-
bling masonry is still and must ever be a

cay, telling every day, as it has for 900
years, the thrilling story Of a woman's
tender love and devotion.
DO Swans Sing Before They Dis9
The story that tells Of swans singing
before death is very old, and Of course Is

Speaking Of the swan, she gave it as her
decided opinion that this bird was in the
habit Of singing or making a plaintive

for entertaining this belief was that on

sweet and exceedingly sad noise. some

Many delicious and economical ONE
lets can be made by the addition Of cold
fish or minced and cooked vegetables.
Take cup of any cold fish, preferably
salt fish, although fresh fish can be pal
atably seasoned and used. Free it from
bones, and heat in white sauce made
from half a pint of milk and table
spoon each of butter and flour. Break
into this three eggs, and stir until they
are properly cooked. Serve all on toast.
Another way of combining eggs and fish
is to spread the fish, heated in sauce, on
a buttered dish that has been well sprin-
kled with fine bread crumbs. Break on
top an egg for each person, and set in the
oven until the whites are set.

> THE KING OF BEASTS.
He Is Merely Big Cat, After All. and 9
Coward at Heart.

He IL Merely "A Big Cat, After All, and Q
Coward at Heart.
II we quit heraldry for fact and go by
the testimony of travellers and hunters,
1t Is very doubtful whether the lion de-
serves his magnificent reputation. It is
his appearance, no doubt, which has
gained for him the appellation of "lling
Of beasts" with all the regal honor per-
tanning to it. Certainly he looks "every
inch king" Nothing can be finer. The
fancy itself could conceive nothing more
6ttingly representative of majesty than
the full grown male lion, gazing with
great yellow eyes, which seem to know
no fear, and the ample honors of his
shaggy name wrapped round his massive
front and forearms. He looks like the
embodiment by nature of loneliness and
magnanimity, and he has been adopted
as such in all literature and poetry from
Homer and Eschylus down to the "lion
eomique" Of our music halls. Yet he is
only a cet-a great cat-after all, and
those who know him in his native wilds
give a very different character of ''felis
leo" from popular conceptions.
We do not wish TO calumniate a crea-
ture so intimately connected with Brit
ish story and SO dignifed in bearing and
behavior, for nobody can deny that the
lion Is a great gentleman in his manners.
Nevertheless, African sportsmen relate
that he can show himself as cowardly as
he is cruel; that he will abandon his
consort and cubs in a moment of ex-
treme danger, and that he scarcely ever
charges straight home upon anybody
who, armed or unarmed, has the pres
ence Of mind TO await his onset. He is
described as very nervous and very cum
ming, and dreading beyond everything
the superior proves of the white man.
The early Dutch settlers at the cape
speak of lions prowling round the fort
at night "in such numbers as though
they would take it by storm" Now one
must 20 very far into the African
'veldt" to see a lion, and strange fact
is that he has learned the craft of silence
and is seldom or never heard to lift up
his mighty voice except in the far wilder
ness, where the hunters have not come
except singly. Thus it is written in an
African guidebook: Though his foot
prints may frequently be seen near the
mountains Of Lokaron and Boatlanama,
and he will sometimes venture to carry
away an OK from a wagon span there
abouts, he rarely or never makes his
presence known by his roar, having
learned apparently that it will only have
the effect of frightening off the few timid
antelopes upon which all hopes of re-
plenishing his larder depend, or, worse
still, Of betraying his position to his in
veterate enemy and prosecutor, man" ~
