His clothes were of the cut and pat
tern which stamp the habitual race
track gam bier; but they were worn and
shabby now, and, as is usual in such
cases, denoted a season of hard luck.
Frederick Clifton-for such was his
name-had been very wealthy man,
but his money, like that of many an
other of his class, had gone with more
or less regularity into the pockets of
the bookmakers; until now, after years
of anxiety and misfortune, he found
himself at the end of his tether. All
the money he had left, and all that he
could borrow, was staked upon the race
about to be started, and well he knew
that unless the black muzzle of Bodach
Glas first caught the eyes of the judges
rs the horses passed under the wire, an
other gamblers career would he ended
and another gamblers wife would have
to pay dearly for her husbands folly.
He raised his field-glass-the same
through which he had so often seen
vast sums of his money take wings
and turned 1t toward the post, where
fifteen speedy thoroughbreds were
plunginG and dancing about sideways,
waiting for the signal from the starter
Bodach Glas the horse he had backed
to retrieve his lost fortune or ruin him,
was almost an outsider in the betting,
but his tremendous raking stride and
his magnificent condition, together
with the tempting odds of forty to one
against, had made him the bearer of
the broken gamblers hopes Another
thing in his favor was the fact that

During the excitement of the race no
notice has been taken of the shabbily-
dressed gambler, but now, as the OUT
sider's number goes up, he is seen to
reel and fall forward on his face, his
field-glass still tightly grasped in his
right hand. Before the customary
curious crowd has time to gather, kind
ly hands bear the prostrate man to the
Jockeys quarters, where he is laid upon
a cot.
Presently he opens his eyes. The
hight of fever is in them, and he looks

is seen the pale, drawn face OF Archer,
who, with his light body moving In
perfect unison with the stride of the
thoroughbred, sits down and rides as
though his life were staked on the re-
suit. There is frantic cracking of the
cruel whips, flash of bright slken
Jackets, and amid the laundering
shout of ''Timour wins!' "Bodach
Glas winsI"-thc horses dash under the
wire.
So closely has been the finish that nc
one besides the judges are sure of the
winner, until the number of Bodach
Glas is slowly hoisted above that OF

f#IiE1llP long anu Well
Oh, was 1t not his hand that brought
The springtime's wealth of green
And flung into the lap of May
Fit garlands for queen?
And though among the blossoms fair
He dropped some sprigs of rue,
Wen take him by the hand and give
The poor Old Year his due!
When summer held high carnival
Among her sylvan bowers,
Was not his hand the one to strew
Her onward path with f1owers2
And when, in billowy harvest fields,
The reapers' song went round,
Did he not loiter on his way,
Till all the sheaves were boundP
And If among the bearded grain
Some blighted stalks there grew
We'll winnow out the gold and give
The good Old Year his duel
A. was he not our comrade still
Through many glade and void,
When all the autumn trees were gowned
In crimson, dun, and gold?
And when his hair and beard grew white
With fakes of wintry snow,
Did he not bring the Christmas Joys
To set our hearts aglow?
And If the trimming cup he held
Was mixed with sorrow, too
Wen drain it to the dregs and give
The kind Old Year his duel

When man is so conscience
stricken, as this one was, on &C
count of some desplicable act or
injury that he has done his fel-

the most abject misery known.
The gulpingsssensation which he
experiences in trying to swallow
the lump in his throat when he
unexpectedly finds himself in
the company of those whom he
injured, is not any more embar-
RAISING to him than when he is
compelled to gaze upon the pub

foul means he adopted to secure
an advantage over those who
are his superiors.

Many Intellectual attempts
were made during the miners
strike to solve the scab problem,
but all ended in failure. Hot
heads advocated questionable
measures, while { others of a
more conservative nature advis-
ed moderation, claiming that a
worthless man is not only a load
to himself, but to those who en-
ploy him, and insthe end would
fall of his own weight, pulling
others down along who might
attempt to hold him up.

In speaking thus l have ref
erence to some of those who
have secured good jobs on
the Lehigh Valley, and who
may be seen occasionally on
trains coming into Freeland.
There is probably no place jim
the state where these worthless
hirelings received so much at
tention as they did in the i'm
mediate vicinity of Freeland
during the strike of 1SS71S8.
At that..time they came from all
quarters and serpent-like crawl
ed into positions of trust that
their sloven nature never would
permit if merit received it's Just

AT one of these collieries east
of Freeland about eighty-three
of these excuses saw the oppor-
tunity of their Lives, selected
their jobs and went to work.
Today but two remain. At the
collieries south of Freeland
these battered specimens of hu-
manity received a similar fate.
Where they have gone no record
has been kept, presumably ma
ture has thrown her mantle over
them and henceforth their home
is in oblivion. Such | predict
will be the end of those who
went on the Valley and love to
talk so much.
On no part of the Valley sys-
tenn were good jobs" so eager

on the Hazleton division, and
apparently all had their eye on
a fire box. They succeeded
very we'll, but these accidental
promotions have very little sta
bility and are always the out
come of some great necessity,
and the fact that many of them
have been sent to the rear on
former occasions, their incom
potency for the time being is
overlooked. In the end they

Experience has shown the
latter method of reasoning to be
the only true solution of the
question which is such vexa-
ton to laboring men. 1t is slow
in operation, but nature does
its work we'll. An example of
this may be found at several of
the collieries nearby where, a
few years ago, farmers We're
turned into engineers, wood
choppers into tiremen and pump
men, clay diggers into miners,
etc., and it is evident that retri :
button came upon them as swift

DEATH LOVES A SHINING MARE"
This time it is the ''Pfnmed knight"
who is called for by the Grim Messenger
whom all must obey. For more than
twenty years James G. Blame was as
much the idol Of the Republican party
as ever Henry Clay was of the old Wing
party. A striking parallel exists in the
history Of these two men, which mast
occur to the minds of the old men OF
today as they recall the events that
transpired during the later years Of the
first half Of the nineteenth century, say
Tor the fifteen years prior to 1850.
Like has great prototype, Clay, Mr.
Blaine's ambition to be president could
not be gratRed. As with Clay, more
than once did the prize seem within his
grasp, but as ereached for his hand,
like the tabled apple Of Tantalns, it re.
oeded from him. The causes that pre-
vented him from reaching the goal Of
his ambition were not the defects in his
own character so much as the envy and
jealousy that his great successes engen-
tiered in his own party. His defeat al
the last Republican national convention
was . fortunate event in more than one
respect. Had be been nominated il Is
certain that the weight Of responsibility
would have been too much for frame
whose vital forces were even then fast
sueeumbing 10 the insidious disease that
finally ended his earthly career.

80 HaKAnAN REH0LUTT0N.

An event which may be Of great i'm
portance to the United Btates happened
few days ago. This event Is nothing
less than revolution in the Sandwich
islands, in which the queen, Lilinoka-
lani was depOsed.
The islands are largely inhabited by
Foreigners, many Of them being natives
Of this country. The queen has been
growing Jealous Of the foreign element,
which has heretofore been granted equal
rights and privileges with the natives,
ana ID order 20 abridgs these rights and
privileges ahesletermined to promulgate
new constitution which should practi-
oally destroy all their civil rights and
probably result eventually in the combs
cation Of their property. On Saturday,
Jannary 18th, the queen attempted to
promulgate her new constitution. which
was resisted by the foreign element,
who acted quietly but with the utmost
celebrity, called mass meeting at which
we're assembled about 1850 people who
immediately proceeded to organize Q
proviaional government which pro-
claimed the reinforcement Of the queen
10 which she very nngraciously and
under protest submitted. The pro-
Yinional government immediately sent
d depnsation 10 Washington desiring
The United States 10 exercise a pro-
tactorate over the islands and to annex
Che territory to the United States with
territorial form Of government.
There are many and cogent reasons
Why these islands should belong 10 this
country. lying as they do in q direct
line between San Francisco and the
poFts Of the Orient, and naval station
on the islands is Of the greatest possible
moment 10 this country. Again, from
commercial point Of view, annexation
Ii mot less desirable. President Harri-
son is said 10 favor the project aud will
probably send neaaage TO congress- in
d lew days expressing his views on the
snbiect.
There Is however, another phase 10
the question which must be taken into
confederation, and that is treaty atipu-
lations that may now be In existence
between this country and The nations Of
Tho old world and which may demand
the autonomy Of the islands, Il is not
10 be supposed that England would
consent to the absorption Of this rich
territory BY this countryiF within her
power 20 prevent il.
II on occasions Of this kind that
tho want Of an adequate navy assumes
large proportions. Sufficient time has
not Set elapsed Tor MS to give an intelli,
opinion Is 10 what will be the ont.
come of Che matter.
