THE DEAREST ONE IN ALL THE EARTH.

Mother.
In line or language there 10 no other
Word that tells 30 clear . story
OF life and love and living glory
Like that sweet word,
eo often heard
And yet 30 little known
Until into our soul life grown,
As that which names the precious one
Who only knows her duty done
When she has folded TO her breast
Her offspring for q longed for rest;
She who has fought the prize to win
For noble life and an entering In
Through the gates Of heaven,
By promise given,
OF yielded life for life, Of love for love,
For bringing blessings from above.
Lifting her offerings up on high,
Ready for them to do and die.
And this brief verse
Would fain rehearse
The virtues and the modest worth
OF the dearest one in all the earth,
Mother.

senses had become what may call, fer
want of better word, entangled.
With what startling vividness such
sensations thus took bodily shape before
him we could only surmise from his ex-
cited manner. Sensitive to an extraor-
dinary degree to every breath, every
whisper around him, his staring eyeballs
too plainly showed how the faculty Of
vision was exalted, in his case, to pre-
ternatural extent.
PLEASE, sir, said a maidservant at
the door; please, sir, DR.. Clifford
wants you up stairs at once"
Clifford and the attendant were hold
ing down the patient by main force
upon the bed. He was struggling to rise,
and the expression of his face was one
Of terror. His eyes seemed as if start
ing from their sockets.
Something has induced q violent
paroxysm, whispered Jim. "He can't
last long if it continues.
The sick man sank back on his pill
lows. His lips moved. By STOPPING over
him could catch some of his words.
"They are coming-coming now," he
see them! Something moves before them
something darkl I can't make it out
Something about to break! Will it save
poor Octave? Will it,
"Visibly worse" said Clifford aside
to me, land the pulse abnormally high.
If this goes on, he will be in high
fever before long"
1t was breathless summer evening,
but the sky was overcast with murky
clouds, foreboding tempest. The room
already grew dark with the shadow Of
its coming
Suddenly there was loud knocking
at the front door. Presently heard
voices in conversation, then heavy foot
steps began to ascend the stairs.
At that instant q rose colored flash
cleaned through the darkness Of the
room, terrific peal of thunder follow
ed, its echoes crashing and rolling as
if the building were about to fall upon
our heads. The sick man sprang con-.
vulsively to an almost upright position
in his bed, then fell backward-dead!
The door opened. There was pause,
and two plainly dressed men slipped

the foremost politely.
Jim nodded assent wonderingly.

"My patient" interposed Jim very
quietly, "has just obeyed another sum-
mons. The man died while you were
coming up stairs"
From the explanations which ensued
it seemed that our late patient had long
been wanted by the police ON no less
a charge than that Of murder. Doubtless
his unwillingness to be removed to al
hospital arose from his persuasion that
he was safer from detection in private|
dwelling.

mckinley and the Bosses.

Mckinley was nominated because
in the minds OF the workmen, the far
mers. the merchants, the clerks and
in fact the great mass of the people
of the United States his name had
become associated with Mckinleyism,
and Mckinleyism was interpreted to
mean the exact opposite of democrat
ic hard times and deficiency Of reve-
nue., and bond issues, and idleness
and starvation.
In New England Mckinley had
the opposition of the bosses and the
tie party machine. New England
cast its votes generally for Reed and
Mckinley was in the minority. In
New York the machine was against
Mckinley and for Morton, yet Nc,
Kinley won IL votes in spite of the
boss. Pennsylvania was for Boss
Quay. Iowa was for Boss Claikson
aud his favorite, Allison. In Illinois
Tanner and Cullom were beaten by
the Mckinley men. Michigan aud
Wisconsin were won for Mckinley
against the party machine.
In nearly every State of the Union,
with tho exception Of Ohio, the party
bosses and the party machinery
was employed for some favorite son,
in the effort to beat Mckinley, and
the triumph of Mckinley was such a
defeat for the bosses as they have
not encountered within the memory
of this generation
The head OF the Mckinley cam
paign was Mark Hanna, man whose
name had previously been unknown
in the domain of national politics
He was neighbor and friend of
Mckinley's, man of ability TO be
sure, successful man in business, a
man Of wealth all crimes in popnlist
eyes-but man who could be called
boss only by the livliest stretch
of the imagination or the most reck-
less disregard of the trnth, His sue
cess, indeed, has elevated him to ma.
tional prominence, and has proven
beyond dispute his political sagacity
and ability, and yet his success has
been chiefly due to the fact that the
people were back of him, and that
he was seeking to follow their wishes.
McKinley's nomination was due to
the peoples revolts against demo
cratic hard times. His election will
be due to the same reason. Colorado

rock and earth and demolishing the home
of Donald S. Mcdonald, situated near the

killed. Mcdonald and his wife and young

and no warning was given the inmates of
the house. Mcdonald, foreman of the

been sick for several weeks with typhoid

night to sit up and render the family as

sleeping in the parlor during his sick

the women of California will profit by the
experience of the women of Kansas in
1894 and keep party politics out of their
campaign.
In their work among the Democrats the
women expect to have the active support
of Governor Budd, who is an advocate of
woman suffrage. 1T is not expected that
any political party will put out "a declaration
of principles until after the national con-
vention shall have been held and there
fore the women will have ample
time for a campaign of education
1t is proposed to circulate petitions
asking the party conventions to endorse
woman suffrage and Miss Anthony be-
lieves that the names of 100000 or 300,-
secured. Fully half of these will be the
names of men, and as the total vote of the
state is only about a quarter of a million,
the politicians will hardly ignore "A petit
ton signed by one.half of the entire voting
population.
Miss Anthony will be joined in a short
time by Miss Yates and Anna b. Shaw,
who will speak in every county in the
state. 1t is proposed to hold two days
convention in every one of the fifty-seven
counties. Miss Anthony will speak in San
Diego, Los Angeles and other large towns
in the state. finally establishing herself in
San Francisco, where she will be the guest
of Mrs. A. A. Sargent, the widow of the
United States senator.
