The ceaseless restless tide of years,
Its joys and SORROWS, hopes and fears,
Have dinimed the eyes, whence genius shone
And DER lifes sunset shadows thrown.
But tell Us not her mind has fled
That memory, reason thought, are dead
But worn and weary, sweetlv sleep
Beneath the years 50 dark and deep.
For in their turn, lid they place,
That Of the last can leave not trace
But far beyond the weight Of years,
A beanteous ray of light appears.
II beams from childhood's sunny land,
And fancy, with her magic wand
Reveals, beneath its frightening rays,
Sweet scenes Of home and early days
Rest thought! when memories melt in shade
The dearest are the last to fade,
But when these too, shall pass away,
Oh, call it not the minds decay.
Soon from Her night Of rest and dreams
With brighter fairer, morning beams,
Her soul in rapture will awake,
OF higher, nobler joys partake.
When lifeless lies the hand that thrilled
The nations heart, ana JOY distilled
Ger sadtlened lives, to many a home
Her thoughts, like angels. Still will come
When Years have flown to heights of fame
The world Will turn to bless the name
That led from dark ness into light
From woe t" JOY, from wrong to right.

Amos ]. Cummings was elected on
Tuesday to fill a vacancy for one of
the New York city districts in the
house OF representatives. He has had
three or four terms in congress. but he
ran last year and was defeated. This
year he had a handsome matorhy-it
had been given out that the opposition
30 him would not be strong. The
business men of New York know
that Mr.. Cummings is a good man in
congress and they are glad to have him
there.
This genial man is the product of the
printing office: he was setting type be-
fore he was fifteen years old, and he
made the round of the United States
while working at his trade. He did
editorial work on the Tribune in
Greeley's time: he stood on guard all
night. rifle in hand. helping ITO defend
the old Tribune building at the time of
the New Yorw riot. in 1868.
After one term in congress Mr.
Cummings declined ito be a candidate
for a second term. but later on he was
elected to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of Sunset" Cox. The news
paper world knows Mr.. Cummings as
the editor of the evening issue of the
New York Sun.

He Was Hit Hard.

Senator German comes out a good
deal the worse for the wear and tear
of the political revolt in Maryland.
The results there are the years great
est surprise. 1t was known that many
Maryland democrats took deep offense
at the manner In which the nomina-
ton of Hurst for the office of governor
was brought about. but the Testimony
of the count is that the feeling of re-
sentiment was deeper than had been
supposed.
Mr.. German keeps his seat in the
senate until 1899. AS far as office
holding Is concerned. Tuesdays result
may not affect him. but that 1t will
mar his prestige there is little doubt
The voters in MARYLAND made no OBJ
lection whatever to Hurst; their vote
was designed to be a direct censure
OF Mr.. German and his methods.
The opposition to the senator was
helped out by the administration
forces. Undoubtedly. when President
Cleveland heard the news from Mary

Ii Mas Buried.

Late Tuesday night there came from
Boston a message which announced
that "the hopes of the friends of fe-
male suffrage have been buried under
an avalanche of ballots" That is no
new experience for female suffrage in
Massachusetts-it has been battling
with legislatures in that state for more
than a generation. Finally the project
has been taken to the polls, and its de-
feat is reported to be inglorious.
Women have the right to vote at
school elections in Massachusetts,. This
year, by act of the legislature, they
were empowered ITO vote on the propo-
sition that IT is expedient that munich
pal suffrage be given to women. This
| furnished the women of the state an op-
portunity to go on record in their own
behalf. The issue was earnestly cam
! lpaigned. Mary Livermore, Julia Ward
Howe, Elizabeth stuart Phelps and
other advocates of woman suffrage did
what they could to rally the forces.
Colonel Thomas Wentworth Higginson
and Senator Hoar lent aid and COM
fort to the movement. 1t was reported
"a week ago that the female registra-
tion was surprisingly small in the state.
The event proves that the advocates of
women voters are more noisy than nu-
merous even in Massachusetts,.
The legislature in New York must
vote on the female suffrage question
during its next session. Early in this
years campaign an effort was made to
awaken among the women of the state
an interest In the election of members
of the legislature-they were asked to
oppose all candidates who refused ito
pledge themselves in favor of the re-
form. Not much came of this appeal.
Many serious questions engaged the at
tention of the New York voters and
the suffrage scheme was virtually lost
| sight of.

The Census Fiqures.

Governor Richards lately made
figures which led him to the conclu-
sion that the population OF Montana
is 10000. The Butte office OF the Stan
dard has been at work at the problem.
and IT reaches the conclusion that the
states population reaches 100000.
BY ithe census Of 1890. Montana's pop
ulation was marked at 132.152 Noto-
riously fhe census work in many parts
of the state was done in slovenly style
the state did not get credit for the
number of its actual inhabitants. An
aconda was put down at 3,975-the
figure was known at the time to be
wrong. A very careful census of Ana
conda was taken a few weeks ago. 1t
gave the CITY a population approaching
1000. Probably the governors estimate
on the state is nuae low; It Is a reas-
onably good guess that 100000 people
are living in Montana.
In spite of the series OF bad years
since the census Of 1880. many OF the
states show gratifying gsins-several
Of them are in the habh Of taking a
census midway between the years In

to a hunt for squirrels in the oak woods

joaquin Miller passes a great deal OF
his time in the wild canyon of Dry Ferns
which is near to his mountain home in
California. Sometimes he spends a

bay tree branches with nothing but a
blanket for a covering.
Prof. Charles C. Everett, who was one
OF. the prominent figures in the Unitarian
conference at Washington during the
last week, has been connected with Han
over college for many years. Nearly a
third of a century ago he was a profess

1t has become known among Lord
Rosebery's friends that the Forthcoming
speech at Scarborough is to be one of
great Importance so far as the future OF
the liberal party is concerned. His lord
ship is determined to make 1t clear that
there is no vacancy in the leadership.
Senator Sherman is said to be growing
younger as the years go on. He is vigor-
Gus and alert, straight as an arrow and
his step is elastic. 1t is also alleged that
the venerable senator is living down his
reputation for frigidity. He has thawed
out noticeably in the last year.
1t is said that Herbert Spencer has
been giving some of his leisure to a criti-
cal examination to the address Lord Sal
isbury delivered before the British asso-
citation last year, and that the premier s
opinions on evolution will form the sub
ject of a treatise which the eminent So
ciologist is preparing.
Thomas Nelson Page went to Washing
