IN THE VALLEY.

To-day, when the sun was lighting my house
on the pine-clad HILL
The breast of bird was rufled as 1t perched
on my window sill,
And leaf was chased by the kitten on the
breeze-swept garden walk,
And the dainty head
OF dahlia red
Was stirred on its slender stalk.
Oh, happy the bird at the rose tree, unheed-
ing the threateningstorm
And happy the blithe leaf-chaser, rejoicing
in sunshine warm!
They take no thought for the morrow-they
know no cares to-day
And the thousand things
That the future brings
Are a blank to such as they.
But I, by the household ingle, can interpret
the looming clouds,
For the wind ''soo-hoos" through the key
hole, and shadow the house en-
shrouds;
And know must quit my mountain, and
go down to the vale below,
For my house is chill
On the windy hill,
When the autumn tempests blow.
My mind is forever drawing an instructive
parallel
'Twixt temporal things that perish and eter-
nal things that dwell
When pillows and waves surround me, and
waters my soul orhow,
descend in hope
From the mountain top
To the sheltering vale below.
go down to the Valley Of Silence, where
the worldly are never met
know there is 'balm and healing" there
for eyes that with tears are wet
And find, in its sweet seclusion, gentl
solace for all my care,
For that valley pure,
With its shelter sure,
Is the beautiful Vale of Prayer

The opening of the Manchester ship
canal, which has been arranged for
the LIST Of January, is a very important
matter in the South, declares the At
lanta Constitution. Three-fourths of
the cotton consumed in Great Britain
is taken in the Manchester district,
and within carting distance of the
Manchester docks. The cotton spin
ners of that district have signed, or
are signing, circular informing the
growers and shippers of the United
States that in purchasing they will
give preference to cotton shipped
direct to Manchester. In addition to
this the saving in charges, as COM
pared with Liverpool, will amount to
thirty cents a bale. Two steamships
have already been placed to sail from
New Orleans and arrangements are
making for steamship to leave Gal
weston. Later there will be steam
ships placed at Savannah and Charles
ton for the shipment of cotton direct
to Manchester.

Says the Washington Star: War.
burton Pike, an Englishman and an
explorer, has just returned to civiliza-
ton after lengthy soiourn in Central
Alaska, which, by the way, is more of
an uncertain land than was Central
Africa prior to the advent of Stanley
on the dark continent. Mr.. Pike is
satisfied that except as game preserve
the interior of Alaska is worthless,
and at present anything like dispute
over that allegation is not possible be-
cause there is no one who can argue
with Mr.. Pike, but it will be we'll to
remember that English opinion as to a
country's value is not always reliable.
Great Britain might still have pos
sessed much of the northwestern terri
tory now belonging to the United
States-the States of Washington,
Idaho and Montana-had not the
brother of the then Premier of Eng
land been travelling in the disputed
region. He was a sportsman, and be-
cause the salmon in the Columbia
River would not rise to fly he said
that the country was not worth quar-
reling over. His testimony was ac-
cepted, but in view of later develop
ments seemed to be rather ridiculous

The report from South Africa that
the British recently slaughtered the
Matabeles like sheep is probably well
founded, says the San Francisco Chron-
ical. The English have never been
noted for their tender regard of the
aborigine. The pioneers of South
Africa, like those of Australia, regard
the natives as hindrance to the develop
ment of the country, and any pretext
which can be used to justify killing or
driving them out of district is eagerly
Welcomed.

Plenty of Food in Sight.

According to Mr.. Urquhart's figures
the 1000, 900 tons of cotton seed pro-
duced by this country annually, after
yielding an unlimited supply of oil,
would yield 100000 tons Of meal.
No attempt to utilize this flour as food
for the human race has yet been made
except experimentally. At a we'll
known public institution in Brooklyn
the newsboys were fed for several
months free of charge on johnny cAttee,
bread and cookies made of cottonseed
-four. 1t ranks in nutriment next to
wheat -four, but it never has been
used for food because it has not been
needed There is such an abundance
of wheat and corn that the waste cot
tonseed cake is sold to feed cattle and
chickens. Cottonseed -four can be
produced at less than half the present
cost of wheat flour, and it is calculated
that the country is producing sufficient
cottonseed cake to fill, if ground, 49,
600, 900 barrels. Our wheat crop this
year apprenticeship , 900, 900 bushels,
and figuring four and a half bushels
as equivalent to a barrel Of -four this
would yield about 83,300,00O barrels.
If we run short of wheat we need not
go hungry, for we can still fall back
on our cotton fields Wonderful is
the cotton plant that gives us clothing,
oil and food for man and beast. New

Mr.. O. Chanute, formerly President
of the American Society of Civil En-
gineers, who has devoted much atten-
ton to arial navigation, thinks that
the chief problem that still remains to
be solved is the mastery ofthe practical
art of managing flying machines-the
art of starting, balancing, navigating
and alighting. There is much reason in
this view, comments the San Francisco
Examiner. If nobody in the world
had ever sailed even a canoe, and an
inventor, by native ingenuity and the
application of sound mathematical
principles, should design a full-rigged
ship, he might have trouble the first
time he put to sea in her. Yet his
situation would be less precarious than
that of the first adventurer to launch
himself into the uncertain air. Prob
ably the labors of the engineers will
have to be supplemented by good
many broken necks of practical navi-
gators before we sail the blue as com
fortably as the birds.

The zone system of railroad rates
which is so successfully operated in
Hungary, has made deep impression
upon James L. Cowles, well known in
railroad circles. He says Distance
costs practically nothing in the
transportation of freight or of pas
sengers, and, therefore, distance
should be disregarded in the dis
elimination of rates. The rate now
charged for the shortest distance for
any particular service is the rate that
should be adopted for all distances.
When once train starts from Boston
to San Francisco, there isn't man
living that can tell the difference in
cost of running that train, whether a
passenger leaves the train at the first
station out of Boston or goes through
from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast. "
Mr.. Cowles further says that there is
not ten dollars difference between
running train from Chicago to New
Leo1k, full OF passengers or empty.

Near the little village of San Jose,
Peru, on the bleak and barren shores.
of Lake Titicaca-the most .elevateae
body of water of any considerable size
in the world-are three large pillars of
stone. If they were not of unequal
height they would resemble gate-posts
or piers upon which at some time in
the far past great arches had been
erected. To the different tribes of
Peruvians they are known by words
which signify standing stones" and
"tall stone gods" Upon the north
side of each of these huge powders the
rude features of human face have
been deeply carved, the other three
sides of each being chiseled with de-
signs of various shapes, kinds and
sizes These carved symbols are all
supposed to have some reference to sun
worship, which the ancient Peruyians
are known to have practiced. All

country were highly civilized, and

William J. Bryan of the First Nebraska
District has sent letter 10 the chairman
OF his Congressional committee, Judge ].
II. Proady Of Lincoln. declining to be a
candidate for reelection. His reasons
for retiring from Congressional life are
that he is unwilling to enter a contest
which, 10 be waged successfully, would
coDfine him to his district during the cam
paign. The district is Republican by 1000,
and in the last election Mr.. Bryan won by
the majority of 40, and as he wants to
take a more active part in the State cam
paign than he could do with doubtful
Congressional campaign Oh his hands he
has decided to decline denomination. In
his letter he expresses some doubts a. to
the future of the Democratic party, saying
IF the Presidents financial policy be-
comes the policy of the patty do not see
any reason for the continued existence of
the party, because the Republicans, hav-
ing followed that policy longer, are better
prepared than We TO support it. On the
other hand, if the party repudiates Mr..
CleVeland's financial policy and renews its
devotion to the common people it may yet
become an effective instrument in the Sc
curing of good government"
Mr.. Bryan states that he will resume his
law practice in the city of Lincoln.
