snid that Mcbride had not informed
him that he intended to take any such

dustriai condition 10 inclte violence

is moving to tho accomplishment Of
that for which its power was delegated
to the people, the preservation Of order
and the safety Of lie and property. At
Chicago, in conjunction with the state
and tho municipality, 1t has already
brought peace out OF the condition Of

its purpose, and tho judicial arm to-
day took up tho orderly courso OF its

crime and tho fixing Of the puuishmohts
thereto.
The first step in this procedure was
the assembling Of the federal grand Jury
and the delivery OF the charge TO it by
Judge Grosscup, as set forth In extenso.
That the national authorities arc not to

quiry into the questions which they

explorer had been travelling with tho
rear guard of the caravan and had
been called suddenly to the front,
where two rhinoceroses were bar

There, directly in the path, stood
the two huge beasts perfectly mo-

their meek little eyes, looking like
two Cerberi forbidding the passage.
Opposite to them, at a distance of
some 300 PAGES, were all the men,

A Delicate Compliment.

OF Bovles, poet, parson and
pamphleteer," Mrs. Andrew Crosse
tells somo amusing stories. One OF
these Is OF % dinner party at Bowood,
when Canon Bowles, then past 60,
was introduced to an elderly lady,
with whom he sat chatting pleasant
ly about things of the day:
Bowlcs was perfectly oblivious
that this was the very lady To whom
he had been engaged to be married
when he Lad very little income be-
sides his curacy. The marriage had
been broken off in consequence of
their mutual want of means. The
lady, of course, was perfectly well
aware that she was talking TO her
quondam lover, but her married
name had in no way enlightened him
as to her personality. After time
sho said, having touched upon old
days:
But, Mr.. Bowles, don't you re-
member mo?"
'No, ma am, don't"
Then she added, smiling: You
used TO know me and pretend to be
very fond of me. i was Miss
"Oh, what wreckl" was tho
spontaneous exclamation of the poet.
Happily the lady enjoyed the joke
immensely for she was n remark
ably handsome woman for her age,
and ms burst of surprise was really
only compliment to the extreme
beauty of her youth.
