A Victory With Pitchers.

Years ago ! was to summer in the
Adirontlacks, and my wealthy friend,
who was great hunter and fisherman,
said. 81 am not going to the Adiron
dacks mis- ason, and you can take my
equipment md will send it up to Paul
Smith IS. Well, twas there when ar
rived i'll The Ad. rondacks, splendid
outfit, that cost many hundreds Of dol
lars, a go1 yeous tent, and such elabo-
rate iishinf; apparatus; such guns of all
styles Of exquisite make and reels and
pouches and bait and torches ard lunch
baskets and many more things that l
could not even guess the use Of. And
my friend of the big soul had even writ
ten on and engaged men who should ac
COMPANY me into the forest and carry
home the deer and the trout If the
stood it at the time there would have
been panic among the antlers and the
fins through all the John Browns
Tract +" Well, am no hunter, and not
a roebuck or game fish did injure.
But there We're hunters there that sea
son who had nothing but plain gun
and rug to sleep ON and coil of fish
ing line and box of ammunition and
bait, who oane i'll ever and anon with
as many of the captives of forest and
stream as they and two or three attend
ants could AIRY. Now, I fear that many
Christian workers who have most elabo-
rate educational and theological and
professional equipment, and most Won
derful weaponry, sufficient, you would
think, to capture whole community or
awhole nation for God, will in the last
day have but little except their fine
tackling to show, while some who had
no advantages except that which they
got in prayer and conservation will, by
the souls they have brought to the shore
of eternal safety, prove that they have
been gloriously successful as fishers of
men, and in taking many who, like the
hart, were painting after the water
brooks
What made the Amalekites run be-
fore Gideon's army? Each one of the
Lrmy knew how much racket the break
ing of one pitcher would make So 800
men that night took 800 pitchers and
lamp inside the pitcher, and at given
signal the lamps were lifted and the
pitchers We're violently dashed down.
The fash of light and the racket of the
500 demolished pitchers sent the enemy
into wild flight. Not much of weapon,
You would say, is broken pitcher, but
the Lord made that awful crash Of
troekery the means of triumph for his
people. And there is yet to be battle
with the pitchers. The night Of the
worlds dissipation may get darker and
darker, but after awhile, in what watch
of the night ] know not. all the ale

beer pitchers, and the whisky pitchers

Justices jackson and Fields, of the
United States supreme court, should be
retired at once, the former because he is
physically unable to perform the duties
of the Office, the latter because he has
degenerated into a senile scold and is
little better than a yirago. When a
justice of the supreme court can find no
better reason for declaring a law uncon-
stitutional than that it taxes his income,
and compels him to give up portion oi
his salary, it is time to fire him. We dc
not attempt to criticise the opinion de-
livered by the court. only the reasons
advanced by Field.

The reporter who wrote up the result
of the trial of Rev. ]. G. Read, near the
end of his report says, in speaking of the
defendant: "His eyes were filed with
tears and while the verdict of acquittal
from fear of the penitentiary must have
been cheerful tidings for him, if he had
any mental force left at all, the almost
certain prospect of confinement in an in
sane asylum could not have been very
cheering" That reporter knows but
little of American Jurisprudence, or he
would have known that the acquittal of
a criminal on the ground of insanity does
not justify the sending of the acquitted
to the asylum. That would seem to be

England is evidently spolling for a
fight. She has managed to pick up two
quarrels with this country by following
the same course she is pursuing now,
and If she desires it can be accommo-
dated with third. When she has got
ten what she is looking for the northern
boundary of the United States will be
the Arctic ocean, and her merchant
marine will not be largest in the world.
England is so used to bullying countries
weaker than herself that she OCCASION

wrong person. She argues like gander,
but she has no business in America and
will find it out if she persists, in her at

the logical result, the common sense
but common sense and com.
mon law are two distinct breeds of cats.
A criminal who is caught and tried, does
not enter the plea of insanity in all
things, but in that particular one thing.
The dethronement of reason was like
Saxe's Vestal's s.for that occasion only"
In all other things the man is sane. He
is sane in selecting good lawyers, and
surely sane in pleading insanity. Rev.
Read may be sent to the asylum for a
short time, but that is extremely prob
lematical.

The celebrated overlap case has been
on trial before Judge Gilbert at Portland
for several days, and after being argued
by some of the leading lawyers of the
state, was submitted yesterday and is
now under advisement. The suit in
wolves about 100000 acres of land. In
1854 the government granted to the
Northern Pacific the lands in question.
Later the government granted lands to
the Oregon & California Co., lands on
both sides of its road from Portland
south, ''not otherwise disposed Of" 1t
would seem clear to the non-hair-split-
ting mind that the Oregon & California
could not lay claim under this provision
of the grant, to any of the lands already
granted to the Northern Pacific and that
in fact it would be forever precluded
from any right to the land reserved by
the implications of the exemption. IF
the Northern Pacific had been built, the
contention would never have arisen, but
as it was not built the Oregon & Cali
fornia at once began the usual tactics of
the Southern Pacific and set up claim to
the lands because it now transpires that
they are not disposed of. Common
sense would demand that this grasping
corporation would be bound by the con-
ditions existing at the time the grant
was made to it, and that it could not
take advantage of conditions arising
thirty years later, and which at the
time the grant was made could not have
been foreseen.

CONE AND SEE Us.

Mr.. Cleveland over rates his power in
making fight for gold, and he also
shows that his perspicacity in political
and personal matters at least, is con-
spicuous by its failure to materialize.
He does not seem to be aware of the fact
that he is at present held in such esteem
by the American people that they gladly
listen to what he has to say, in order
that they may know just what not to do.
What Mr.. Cleveland should have done
was to have accepted that Chicago in
vitation. He should get on this side of
the western boundary of New York. He
should learn from this that the United
States is much larger than the District
of Columbia, or Kings county. He
should cease his introspection, and dis
cover that there are brains and talent in
the country outside of the Cleveland
family. He should become cognizant of
the fact that the father of Baby Ruth is
not necessarily as great man as the
"Father of the Country" He ought to
learn that the Mississippi is larger than
the Hudson and that Puget sound is
larger and more beautiful than Butter
milk channel. He really ought to visit
the Pacific coast and size up Hood,
Shasta or Rainier with Katahdin or
Bunker Hill. He should broaden his
mind, deepen his intellect, and lengthen
his knowledge; for he is deficient in
three directions.
The president has really a good mind
if he would give it chance, but he
should cut the strings on it and let it ex-
pand. His thinker has become hide
bound and like Alexander, he wants
more worlds to conquer without having
seen half OF this. We should like to see
him, the people of the coast would like
to see him glide across the continent in a
Pullman car for five days, SO that he
might understand that Schenectady was
not really such a vast distance from
Skeneatsles, or Tarrytown hopelessly re-
mote from Sackett's Harbor. The people
here will give him joyous welcome, the
anvils will shoot, the local democracy
will spout and everybody will turn out
to do honor to the occasion, and wher
he goes home to Washington he will
know more and feel better than he eve1
thought possible. He will realize thai
as president, he is really at the head o
one of the biggest things in existence
the whole United States of America; a
country that can exist within itself
furnish its own supplies, create its owr
money, and snap its fingers at either
Wall street, the world or-the president

Only One of Thousands Of Victims Of Exist
Ing Conditions.
Early this morning the janitor at the
city hall found a shivering man seated
on the cold stone steps Of the great build
ing. The man was As or so years old,
with a high forehead under a tattered
hat. He sat there on the steps of the
palace of authority in wretched rags and
silence. He said he was sick and the
janitor admitted him to the city physi-
clans anteroom.
When DR.. Watson came the man said
he ate seven frozen apples last night to
allay his hunger and complained of
cramps. The Doctor gave him medicine
two Ur three times and he lay down on a
settee in the anteroom and became quiet.
He gave the name Of Joe Williams when
asked, and his case was entered in the
big book on the desk.
There were other sick wretches seated
about Williams, and he was simply a
little more ragged and dirty than the
others, and he attracted no especial atten-
ton. Another man who sat dejectedly
on the settee in front of him, waiting bis
turn, noticed that his comrade in misery
groaned now and then. When the groans
ceased none of those who sat around
thought of it. The doctors went on with
the patients and the squslid men and
women were duly intent on their own
sufferings. Busy people who walked
through did not look to see whether the
man stretched out on the settee, with
one arm over his head, and his sad eyes
turned to the ceiling, was sleeping or
dead. About II o'clock, when DR.. Smythe
came to see about sending him to the
hospital, the man was dead.
The Coroner came, took charge OF the
body, and sent it to Stewards undertake
ing rooms. Not a scrap Of paper or
earthly possession was found in the
clothes. A post mOrtem examination
