Not inviting.

A thrifty old farmer from Loudoun
county, Virginia, came down to Washing
ton during the session of the last con
gress accompanied by his daughter. an
extremely attractive young woman, says
the Detroit Free Press. 1t was a day of
sightseeing, and father and daughter had
a. jolly time getting around from place to
place. 1t was practically new to both of
them, for they didn't get to the capital
often, and very much less often for holt
day entirely to themselves.
The last point to be seen was the capitol
and the couple, after a hurried visit to the
other points of interest about the great
pile of marble. found themselves in the
House gallery. The old farmer had been
reading the papers pretty closely. and he
knew wh2t he was looking at as he cast
his eyes over the aggregation on the floor.
but the girl was thinking about something
else. AT last she nudged her father.

asked after the manner of daughters on

He looked at her moment and then at
the crowd below.
What! One of them?" he said scath-
ingly. and taking her by the arm he
walked out of the gallery in hurry.

The Broken Pitcher.
From the Baltimore News Dem).

The Massachusetts, legislatures commit
tee on mercantile affairs has just made
its report to its parent body. The COM
mlttee was the one that made a tour Of
the southern states to examine into the
causes which are leading to the exodus
there of northern manufacturers. The
report of the committee is doubtless very
reassuring to the people of Massachusetts
and contains comfort and a pat on the
back for almost everyone, including the
southerners. There is a striking SINH
larity, though, It must be confessed, be
tween the report and the three excuses
of the woman who returned a broken
pitcher to a neighbor. It Will be remem-
bered that she asserted first that she had
not borrowed the pitcher; second that
the pitcher was not broken. and. third,
that the pitcher was broken when 1t was
loaned. The Massachusetts committee
asserts, first. although a large amount
of Massachusetts capital has been sent
into the south for the erection of cotton
mills, there is no immediate danger from
southern competitions: second. that four
Massachusetts corporations have recently
asked for legislative permission 10 move
south, hut have not decided 20 make use
of the permissi0n and, third, figures are
given 10 show that IN 1892 sixty-eight per

AaOny nous.
Behold this RUM Twas a skull
once of ethereal spirit full.
This narrow cell was hfe's retreat
This space was thoughts mysterious seat
What beauteous visions filed this spot;
What dreams of pleasure long forgot!
Nor Hope, nor Love- nor JOY, nor Fear
Have left one trace Of record here
Beneath this Wondering canopy
once shone the bright and busy eye;
But start not at the dismal void
If social love that eye employed.
II with no lawless fire IL cleaned
But through the dews of kindness beamed
That eye shall be forever bright
When stars and sun are sunk in night
Within this hollow cavern hung
The ready swift and tuneful tongue;
If falsehoOd's honey it disdained
And when 1t could not praise, was chained
If bold in virtues cause il spoke,
Yet gentle cOncOrds never broke
This silent tongue shall plead for thee
When Time unveils Eternity.
Say, did these fingers delve the mine?
Or with It's envied rubies shine?
10 new the rock or wear the gem
Can little now avail to them.
But if the page of truth they sought
Or comfort to the mourner brought,
These hands a richer need shall claim
That all that wait on Wealth and Fame
Avails it whether bare or shod,
These feet the paths of duty trod?
II from the bows Of ease they fed
To seek Affections humble shed:
II grandeur s guilty bribe they spurned,
And home to virtues cot returned
These feet with angels wings shall vie
And tread the palace Of the sky.

VIII YenerueIn Firhtr

The government and people OF Venezu-
Ella are reported TO be in favor Of going TO
war rather than submit to
Great Britains arbitrary attitude
with regard to the disputed
boundary between Venezuela and Brit
ish Guiana. Venezuela claims that British
Guiana has usurped Venezuelan territory.
She wishes the claim arbitrated. TO which
Great Britain objects. with the old asser-
ton that there is nothing 10 arbitrate II
may be that the insistence by the congress
Of this country that Great Britain should
submit the matter 10 arbitrat ion, in con-
nection with their understanding OF the
meaning of the Monroe doctrine, has had
a good deal 10 do with screwing the cour-
age of the Venezuelans up to the point OF
desiring TO fight so powerful an enemy as
Great Britain. The Venezuelans no doubt
feel pretty certain that If they were TO get
into trouble with Great Britain they would
have an ally and protector in the United
States. That, however, is far from as
sured. It is unreasonable that picayun-
ish little land quarrel, in which this gov
eminent has no interest whatever. should
involve 1t in a war with a friendly country
with which its greatest commerce is car
ried on.
The Nenezuelans say. however that the
question Of material support from the
United States in the event of war is a
secondary consideration. They insist that
the territory claimed belongs to them.
and that self respect viii not permit them
to remain passive an instant after it be-
comes clearly evident that Great Britain
means to retain possession of it, The
spunkiness of that position is striking.

army OF only about 5000 men. With "A
population of 250O,C00 10 draw upon. it is
said she could put 10000 troops in the field

Americans are trained soldiers. from par
ticipation, on one side or the other, in the
numerous rebellions. such force would
be formidable, especially when fighting
upon its own ground. Nevertheless, in
comparison with Great Britain's strength,
Nenezuela's forces would be weak. La
Guayra, Maricaibo and Port Barima, the
chief seaports Of the republic, would be
at the mercy Of the heavy guns Of the
British navy. and their destruction would
be merely a question of whether Vene-
zuela submitted or not.

No Wholesale Movement.
From Boston journal of Commerce dnd.)

The impression that has been abroad
in some places in the SOUTH namely, that
the eastern manufacturers are about to
move their mills bodily to the south, has
been very much modified, if not done away
with, by this visit 1t is not that the man
ufacturers of the east are going to make
any wholesale movement in this direction,

"NO Returns Ends the Matter"

If any man with an income between
s., 500 and $4,000 should fail to report to the
worry about the penalty to be imposed.
He is required to make a report. but the
penalty for neglect provided in the act
does not reach his case. Fifty per cent.
is to be added to the amount of tax ascer-
tanned to be due. But so per cent added
to nothing makes nothing. and that is
all that the individuals with incomes he
tween $500 and $4,000 can make to pay
if they should neglect to make returns.

free" has a mighty power to charm. 1t
is the embodiment of the idea of getting
something for nothing: That idea has al

followed it up. The hope and desire to get

1t may be that the desire to get some
thing for nothing is instructive At any
rate 1t is possessed by a large percentage
of the human family; and it IS upon that
desire that the soph!sts OF silver monome-
tallism work. They do not say in so many
words that free silver means that under
free coinage silver would be given gratis
to all who would take the trouble to ask
for it. But by their very scphistry they
lead the more ignorant classes to believe
that in some mysterious manner the white
metal, in dollar coins of the value OF one
hundred cents each, would be showered in
the laps of everybody Immediately upon
the passage of free coinage bill.

''expenseless coinage or "untaxed coin
