did not care to vote or were absent on
election day The question that is
Rgftating the late candidates is what

as to whether the Australian law is a
success or not The Eagle gives the
facts and lets its readers figure out the

A Hard Working Monarch.

The activity of the German emperor
is well known but it will probably sur
prise many to read the following table
of his movements during the year end
ing August Is. He was in Berlin or
Potsdam, SO the table states, 1G6 days
and travelling 1919 days. He gave TWEEN
ty-seven days to maneuvers and re-
views in twelve different places, from
Kiel and Salzwedel to Stuttgart, Stras-
burg and Metz; he went for state cere-
monials to four cities; to the funeral of
Duke Ernest and to the wedding of the
grand duke of Hesse; he hunted in
Sweden, Wurtemberg, Upper Silesia,
Baden and Hungary; his trip to Abba
zia, including visit to Pola, Venice
and Vienna, occupied three weeks. He
visited the North Fjord and England,
travelling altogether during the year
over 1880 miles, or an average OF
ninety-five miles for each of the 199
days he was away from Berlin. Lon

min order, eat three square meals day
three hundred and sixty-fve days in
the year, keep his head clear and his
heart light and his hand steady and
live right on for a hundred years. For
after all, when you come right down to
the plain naked, unwashed facts in the
case, what can any man get out of this
life eXceptin his victuals and clothes
sometime to smooth out the wrinkles
and keep his body warm in winter and
cool in summer ?
Whereas, | am bound to stick to it
that hard times is u mighty good thing
in their place. They give man some
thing TO think about and somethin to
do. They feed him on plain grub and
give him plenty of exercise and keep
his liver moyin, and that is the mainest
thing yet. And if you wait for hard
times to kill you, you will live long,

Two drummers had scraped an ac-

Saved From Death and RuinatIon.

Let man have money plenty
money enough to go and git anything
and everything he wants--and he will
be powerful strange human bein if he
don't want somethin now presently
that he don't need and somethin that he
hadn't ought to have. Oncst upon a time
l knowed bright and promisin young
man that was saved from certain death
and everlastin ruination by hard times.
1t was Rams Milligan, which the same
he afterwards went out west to grow
up with the country and was runnin
for congress the last news | got from
him. Well, at that time Rams was
standin ON the very brink of ruination,
and hard times come along and snatch
ed him from the jaws of death by the
skin of his teeth and the hair of his
head. as it were You see Rams was the
onlyest boy, and the onlyest child. in
that branch of the Milligan family.
Old man Lish Milligan, his father, was
farmer, and a farmer right. He had
lands and niggers and mules and cot
ton and money till you couldn't rest.
When the war come on and set the mig
gers free that was too much for old
man Lish, and SO he took and laid down
and died. Two or three years later on
the old lady likewise also died, and
that left Rams alone in the world with
a good plantation and twenty thousand
dollars to run on. BY this time Rams
was full grown young man and as
wild a buck as ever left his trail in the
southern woods. He put right in then
to have good time and for the next
few years he let his money go fast and
free and furious and reckless. Before
he was twenty-five years old he had
run through with the twenty thousand
dollars and didn't have nothin but the
plantation left. Everybody for miles
around was sorry to see Rams runnin
away with himself and everything he
had, but it want nobody's business.
He was full grown and white and free,
with no family to raise and no poor
kinnery. 1t looks like old man Lish
had made the money and piled 1t up
there and left it. There want nobo Nv
to spend it but Rams and he was doiu
his durndest to tend to that part of the
business. He went right ON drivin fast
horses and wesrin fine clothes and
drinkin whisky and gamblin till finally
at last he sold the plantation and paid
off his debts and had five thousand dol
lars left But he had been Twin so
monstrous high and rapid till by now
he was breakin down in his general
health, and breakin mighty fast. He
had set the pace too swift, and he
couldn't stand up under it forever He
took down with somethin like gallopin
consumption and it looks like die he
would in spite of all that could be said
or done. The doctors would patch him
up and pull him through one of them
bad spells, and soon Us ever he get on
