cratic party, then we must count in
the opposition also Mr.. Carlisle, Mr..
Bayard, Mr.. Palmer, Of Illinois, Mr..
Whitney, Mr.. German, and nearly
every one of those who are recog-
nized as the ablest of the party's
leaders.
There are honest differences among
Democrats as to the policy we should
pursue after the Sherman act has
been repealed, bnt it IS the sllliest
twaddle to impugn the Democracy
of those who ale opposed to the cons
tirued coirags Of silver at tbe pres
ent ratio.
Such stuff might be expected from
the silver mine owners or their paid
lobby at the Capital, but when il
comes from Democrats it is a symp-
tom of arrogant imbecllity.

THE ANGEL OF PATIENCE,

To weary hearts, to mourning homes,
GODS meekest angel gently comes;
No power has he to Danish pain,
Or give US back our lost again.
And yet in tenderest love our dear
And heavenly Father sends him here.
There's quiet in that angels glance,
There's rest in his still countenance,
He mocks no grief with idle cheer,
Nor wounds with words the mourner's s
ear.
But Ills and woes, he may not cure;
He kindly trains US to endure.
ALs.-1 of Patience! sent to calm
Our feverish brows with cooling palm.
To lay the storms ef hope and fear,
And reconcile life's smile and tear;
The throbs of wounded pride to still,
And make our own our Fathers will.
oh, thou who mournest on thy way,
With longings for the close of day,
He walks with thee, that angel kind,
And gently whispers, "Be resigned;
Bear up bear on, the end shall tell
The dear Lord ordereth all things well.
John Greenleaf Whittier.

TO A MOTHER ON THE DEATH
OF Il LITTLE CHILD.

The following txquisitely beautiful
and touching lines have been sent to the
Observer by a Salisbury lady who says
she does not know whether they have |
ever been printed before, and adds:
"They were copied out of rector's wade
mecum' of the late Rev, Pr. 1T. heat" !"
1 know in grief like yours how more
than vain
All comfort to the stricken heart ap-
pears.
And as the bursting cloud must spend
the rain
So grief its tears.
l knew that when your little darling's
form
Had freed the angel spirit fetteEeo
there,
You could not pierce beyond the break
ing storm
In your despair.
You could not see the tender Hand
that caught
Your little lamb 20 shield him from
all harm;
You missed him from your own, but
never thought
Of Jesus arms
You only felt those precious ejes were
dim;
You only clung to what remained of
him.
Beneath the mould.
But oh! dear mother! look the gate
unbars!
And through the darkness, smiling
from the SIX les
Are beaming on you, brighter than
these stars
Your darling's eyes,
'Tis said that when the pas ures down
among
The Alphine hills had ceased TO feed
the focks.
And they must mount TO where the
grass is young
Far up the rocks.
And lifts him gently to his care full
breast,
Aud with its tender bleating leads the
way.
For all the rest;
That quick the mother follows in the
path,
Then others go like men whose faith
gives hopes,
And soou the shepherd gathers all he
hath
Far up the slopes.
And on those everlasting hills He feeds
The trusting fold in green that never
pals.
Look up, q. see your little darling
leads,

THE LITTLE FEET.

Across the lonely chamber floor,
And down the passage, through the
hall,
The.little feet resound no more?
There cometh through the open door
No merry voice, no laughing call
Across the lonely chamber floor,
But where the sunlight flashes Ger
Gray tapestry and pictured wall,
The little feet resound no more!
Perchance upon distant shore
They wander now, no more to fall
Across the lonely chamber floor.
Why comes the summer to restore
Bright hollyhocks and lilies tall?-
The little feet resound no more
Alas for Hopes deceptive lore!
Her words are desolation all;
Across the lonely chamber floor
The little feet resound no more.

The Crank Harmless and Crank Dan
9GrOuS.
The Shepard calls.
Charlotte Observer.


There are two varieties Of crank,
the harmless and dangerous.
The crank who has machines
and who can show you how
to make fortune, the crank who
lives on water or who is willing to
be buried alive, are men OF the
class who injnre 10 one but them :
selves.
Just now, however, the country
is burdened with crank of more
harmful kind. He is the financial
crank, whose turgid theories are
instilled into the minds of the igs
norant. These men ally them,
selves with men wose demagogism
will make tools of them. Such was
the ''Silver Convention" gathering
in Chicago with such men as Gov.
ernor Waite, Of Colorado, who has
counselied bIood-shed. a. Buck, of
Arizona,' is another. This indi-
vidual declared. eff these gold bngs
press US too closely there'll be a
fight as sure as Satan, and We'll
thrash them until they don't know
where they stand"
Demagogues like these two util-
ize the silver cranks for the detris
ment of the entire country and
demagogueB like these should De
weeded out.
These men harp much on the
"gold bugs" 1t is time for them
to tell us something of the silver
mines and want the United States
Government to buy their product
at their prices, whether it is worth
it Or not. It has paid to be silver
bug The business has had more
sure profits than any. amount OF
goldism. If this fact is realized by
the wellsmeaning but deluded sil-
yer crank he will realize how he is
imposed upon.-Richmozad State.

THE man who knows all about
the silver question could save the
country toaday if he did not hap
pen to have a twin brother who
also knows all about it, and un-
fortunately the two hold exactly
opposite views on the subject.
Meanwhile Mr.. Cleveland, who is
neither ''goldebug" nor ''silver
lunatic,' as gentlemen of the OPP
posing parties are fond of styling
each other, may be trusted, with
the assistance of Congress, to carry
out the policy best adapted to the
existing crisis.

CORAL BLA STING.
The Rock Near Brewers Wharf
Blown Up Saturday
Afternoon

Blasting on the coral bed at
Brewers wharf was commenced
last Saturday afternoon by Mr.. w.
E. Rowell, superintendent of public
works, and the work will be con-
tinued during the week. Over ten
holes have already been drilled.
In four of these holes Mr.. Rowell
put from twenty-seven to thirty
cartridges of No. 2 Hercules powder
in each, while insulated wires con-
nected the cartridges TO a No. 2
Victor magnetic blasting machine
placed on the wharf. President
Dole promised to be present to see
the coral bed blown to pieces, but
as he did not arrive at 4 80 P NJ,
Mr.. Rowell, after warning small
boys swimming to keep their heads
out of the water, moved the handle
of the battery and the charges went
off with loud report, the water
being greatly agitated at the same
time. Captain J. A. King, minister
of interior, was one Of the interested
spectators. President Dole arrived
about three minutes after the blast
ing. For nearly four minutes after
the blasting, a strong stream of
water was thrown up from the
bottom which was mistaken for
artesian water. Mr.. Rowell ex-
planned the cause of the upheaval
of the water as being caused by
escaping gases. The work of blast
ing was considered very successful.
Several more holes will be blasted
this week, but just when has not
been decided as yet.

SHOT By A BROTHER CELES-
TiAL AT HOAEAE.
The Murderer Escapes and is Still
at Large, Supposedly at
Waianae.

Lung Yao, a Chinese burglar,
shot and killed another Chinaman
named Tong Hoon Hoo, otherwise
known as Tong Yong, in a taro
patch at Hoaeae early Sunday
morning. The murderer es-
capped, and is still at large, but
his probable location is known to
the police, and he will probably be
captured today.
The facts of the murder are as
follows: At l o'clock yesterday
morning the wife of Tong Yong,
who was sleeping, was aroused by
a slight noise in the room back of
the one in which she and her hus-
band slept. She suspected burglars,
and awakened her husband, who
Immediately got up, and called out
to the intruder, asking who was
there. The man made his escape
by the back door, and struck across
the fields, with Tong in pursuit.
Just as Yao got outside the door,
he turned and fired two shots al
Tong, neither of which took effect.
Not daunted by the fusilade,
Tong still followed his assailant,
who started to cross taro-patch,
dropping a box containing some
valuables that he had taken from
longs house. Just as Tong en-
tered the taro- patch Yao fred again
at him, the ball taking effect in the
body of the unfortunate man.
Tong managed to crawl almost
back to his house, but died before
he could reach the door. The MUIR
derer is supposed to be on the road
to Waianae, and is probably in
hiding in the Waianae hills. His
capture is looked on as almost GER
tain by the police.
Deputy Marshal Brown went to
Hoaeae yesterday and held an in
quest on the body of the murdered
man.
