Tho Democrats Showing Up in Great
Shape.
CoMProN, Oct. 17.-After the last Re-
publican explosion here We were in
doubt whether Democrat and more es-
cially Populst would ever dare to
hold up their heads. but it turns out
that they are all alive and able to be
out. At the Democratic rally last eve a
good audience greeted them and instead
OF gunpowder, brasa band and bombast.
we had logic, hiatory and some surpris-
ing comparisons and facts that all good
Republicans should have heard. These
present at both meetings could not help
but contrast them, greatly to the credit
OF the Democrats, and several Republi-
cans and Populists went forward to con-
gratulats Mr.. Harris on his masterly
speech. He did not atoop to ridicuie or
invective, but found sufficient argument
in demonstration of facts.
Frank Palomares seemed to be greatly
admired, his words and manner inspir-
ing confidence.
Mr.. Ardis said he had not word to
cay against his friend Mr.. Steele. but
wanted TO be elected, and proceeded to

cinct, but many from neigh boring places
were present, with great many Popu-
lists and quite a sprink!ing of Repup-
licans.

Populist meeting 10 arranged for the

be the result. The Populists. too. are
not 30 badly squelched, as one would
naturally suppose, from being so terri
bly, battered by such greatness as is
supposed to be embodied in General
Campbell and Mr.. McLachian. They
really held large meeting at Gardsna
Saturday evening, notwithstanding O
water meeting at the same time and the
Perkins affair in Los Angeles. Messrs.
Steele and Savage addressed them. The
Democrats there erected q fagpole the
same day. the Populiats wickedly say,
with our assistance"

Waiting For Dead Mems Shoes.

Waiting for dead mems shoes is an
old proverbial expression and in con-
nection with army officers and their
wives still has a remarkable signifi-
cance. Said an officers wife few
evenings since: II do dislike to take
up an army register and scan theper-
sonals to see if any one outranking
the captain is i'll or to keep an eye
upon the old officers and figure out
when they will be retired. But I'm
not as bad as some others. Why,
they get life insurance tables and
study mortuary probabilities to see
when an officer may be promoted by
reason of death among officers out
ranking him. If some officers die as
they should according to rule, the
captain will be a general before he is
80 years old. Isn't it mean business
to think about2 But we get paid
back, for when my husband is old
all the rank and file will be indulg-
ing in tho same kind of speculation
and wondering why old General
Blank doesn't die. ."-Cincinnati Irib-

James Russell Lowell CrOwns Homer,
Dante, Cervantes end Goethe.
There are certain books which it is
necessary to read, but they arc very
few. Looking at the matter from an
aesthetic point Of view merely, I
should say that thus far only ono
man had been ablo to use types so
universal and to draw figures SO cos
mopolitan that they arc equally true
In all languages and equally accept
able to the whole Indo- European
branch, at least, Of the human fami-
ly. That man is Homer, and there
needs, 1t seems to me, no further
proof Of his Individual existence than
this very fact Of the solitary unap-
proachableness of the "Iliad" and the
Odyssey" The more wonderful
they arc, the moro likely to be the
work Of one person. Nowhere is tho
purely natural man presented to us
80 nobly and sincerely as in these
poems.
Not far below these I should place
the "Divina Commedia" Of Dante, in
which the history of the spiritual
man Is sketched with equal COM
mand Of material and grandeur OF
outline. Don Quixote" stands upon
the same level and receives tho same
universal appreciation. Here we
havo the spiritual and the natural
man set before us in humorous con-
trast. In the knight and his squire
Cervantes has typified the two op-
posing poles Of our dual nature-the
imagination and the understanding
as they appear in contradiction.
This is the only comprehensive satire
ever written, for it is utterly inde-
pendent Of time, place and manners.
Faust gives us the natural his
tory Of the human intellect, Mephis-
topheles being merely the projected
impersonation Of that skepticism
which is the invariable result of a
purely intellectual culture. These
four books are the only ones In
which universal facts Of human ma
ture and experience nre ideally rep
resented. They can therefore never
be displaced.
have not mentioned Shakespeare,
because his works come under diff
ferent category. Though they mark
the very highest level Of human gen
ius, they yet represent no special
epoch in the history Of the individual
mind. The man Of Shakespeare is
always the man Of actual life, as hc
Is acted upon by the worlds Of sense
and Of spirit under certain definite
conditions. We all of US may be in
the position Of Macbeth or Othello
or Hamlet, and we appreciate their
sayings and deeds potentially, so to
speak, rather than actually, through
the sympathy Of our common nature
and not of our experience.-James

When Ye Think Not.

This anecdote is told of Rev. Mr..
Kidd, a Scotch minister, who was
very eccentric and had his own way
of doing things. Just as the year
was opening" says one of his parish
toner's, II was very busy in my shop,
when, right in the midst of my work,
in stepped the parson. Did you ex-
pect me2' was his abrupt inquiry,
without ever giving OF waiting for a
salutation. No, sir, was my reply,
Il did not What if I had been

North Carolina Icmeralds.

In Alexander county, N. c., the
farmers in blowing used to turn up
pretty grass green prisms which they
called -green bolts" Professor W.
E. Holden identified them as ene>
aids, and in July, 1880, he started in
to mine for them. He got many en-
eralds, Rut also discovered another
kind Of emerald green stone unknown
until then, which he named hidden
ite." Ifoccurred in slender prisms.
Digging for it has since been carried
on very, proftably in that locality.
BY lapidalies it is highly esteemed,
and it has found much use in jew
elry. Seventy-four emeralds were
found in single pocket" but most
Of them were too badly f1awed to
have much value. - Boston Tran

Gas Versus Theology.

One of the oldest mistakes that
ever occurred it is safe to say, in
Chicago or anywhere else, happened
to South Side druggist, Mr.. j. H.
Hogey. His servant, Bridget, was
washing the steps of his house on
Vernon avenue. Along came an en-
ployee of the gas company, who
wished to enter the house to read the
gas meter. lie had a thick book un-
der his arm in which he is wont to
register the figures of the various
meters which he examines. Unfor-
tunately he is an Engllshman, with a
pronounced cockney accent, and
Bridget is not overnight. This is
what the inspector said as he took
his book from under his arm: Good
morning, madam. All would like to
read the gaas bill" This is what
Bridget said:
"I've to culle the breakfast an have
no time now to listen to the gospel.
But it's mo juty, my good wom-
an. must read the gaas bill, and you
must let me. Allow me to enter"
"Diyil a sthep," said Bridget,
"Como agin, when I've no worruk, an
III listen to yer gospel.
Tomake a long story short, the man
couldn't make Bridget understand
T. =, and he didn't understand her
and reported to the company that he
was not allowed to look at the gas
meter, and the company took the
meter out of the house before the
mistake was found.-Boston Tran
