Oyer in the town Of Wrentham, Mass,
everyone is agog with excitement a child
who had been physically detormed for four
years, and who was the object Of the pity Of
the entire town, has had her limbs straight

strengthening OF her neck, and is running
about town now with the freedom and aban-

Mary $, Fuller is the name Of the little

hopelessly crippled. Rheumatic fever four
years ago attacked the nerves and cords of
her lower limbs and neck, so that the former

the cords Of the latter were SO frightened on
one side as 10 draw her head down on her
shoulder. Her arms too, were helpless. and

her TO q skeleton, and the poor mother has
almost given her own life for that Of the child,
IN her untiring watching at the little ones

vindicated. Formerly the surgeon would
have been called on in this case to straiphten
the limbs. Now the idea is to work in har-

nature, supplying to the weakened parts the
chemical properties they need. For instance,

Progrsssive Disappearing Of Gas.

From the New York World.
A bill has bsen reported favorably in
the Assembly to securs tho progressive
cheRpsulngiot gas and electric light In
titles Of the first class. The bill has
European experience TO support t. 1t
provides that cities may enter into
fifteen year contracts for gas or electric
ty at lower prices to begin with than
those now charged. and that in consldera
tion of the length OF the term the price is
to be progressively lowered year by year
X Is also 20 be stipulated ia the contracts
that light shall be- furnished to private
persons at lower prices than now and
that these prices shall decline upon a
dxed scale each year. The idea under
lying the measure Is that for the sake Of
permanency Of tenure the companies eau
afford to do what is required OF them.
The sy stem commends itself to judg-
ment, and a careful scrutiny OF the bill
fails to discover anything Objectionable

Notwithstanding the Supreme Court
decision, ths income tax stil remains a
mystery, especially to those who do not
want to understand It. According to the
New York Herald, There has been some
question as to whether persons whose
incomes, exclusive Of rents and interest
on bonds. exempted BY the Supreme
Court which are not more than 81, 500.
win be obliged. under the law to make
returns. It makes no difference how
large an income may be, as long as that
part Of It derived from taxable sources
is no more than s.. $500, the person re.
csiving it will not be required to make a
return" This Interpretation seems to be-
reasonable and sensible one.

From the st. Louis Globe- Democrat
The collapse Of the Cuban revolution
adds another TO the list of repeated fail
nres on the part of the people Of that
unfortunate country to throw off the
Spanish yoke and achieve the blessing Of
independence THIS disastrous result
Was anticipated from the start By all who
were acquainted with the condition of the
situation and with the history OF the
preceding struggles of the same kind. It
is easy to say that Cuba ought TO be free.
Spanish rule in her case. as 1t has gener-
ally been in other cases, is tyranny Of an
order which is q reproach to civilization
She is exorbtantly taxed and otherwise
shamefully oppressed and when she asks
for justice and fairness she is answered
with reproof and mockery. Certainly
there Is justification for revolution whore
such stats Of things exists, and in every
instance Of that kind OF an attempt to
solve the problem, Cuba has had the
sympathy Of good people in all Countries

THE MERCHANTS DAUGHTBR.

Alfred Perceval Graves. in The Athenaeum
Her father was a merchant bold
Who o'er the wild Biscayan water
Sill brought back the good red gold
To richly dover his only daughter
Radiant she as rose on tree.
But though full many a gallant sought ner,
No, no, no. on all their woe
FroWned back the Merchants daughter.
Until effulgcnt from the fight ,
That shook the shores from France 10 flahoeis'
Shone upon her patriot sight
The kingest Of our sea commanders,
Looked her through, and from her view
Vanished smiling. the morrow
All! but she her laughing glee
Forsook for signing sorrow.
Fair blows the wind, the skies are blue;
wilt sail with me. my winsome daughter!
THAT will !! Dear friends adleu.
And Ger the wave her sire has caught her.
Southwark far. by sun and star.
His good ship fleets the ocean over.
When alack, across her track
There strikes a Salee Rover.
But as the pirate pressed them sore.
And deck and hold red with slaughter,
Sudden round the headland hoar
noble warship sweeps the water.
Heavens above! 'tis her true love
That hath this great dev'rance wrought her.
Grief farewell, wake. marriage bell
For our blest Merchants daughter
