I've labOred from day to day

Twas that when / was laid away
I'd leave a void behind
Something, You know,
TO always show
That had lived and wrought.
But now at last.
That dream Is past
I've got to share the common lot
I've thrown a fever of to-day
And risen from my bed.
For I've been but helpless Clay,
With wild thoughts in my head.
I'd f0ndly thought
The mill would not
Run Il I not there to see.
But It's kept right on.
Though I've been gone.
And that's the thing that saddens me.

TIE nomination of Joe Bailey by the Democratic caucus for Speaker of the House, which carries with it the leadership of the minority party, is very high compliment to the brilliant young Texan. Bailey is only B. years old and is a very eloss quent orator and close student of public affairs. But after the decli- nation of MT. Bland, the honor, we think, should have been conferred upon Benton McMillian, of Tonnes see, who by his past services in the House, his skill as parliamentary leader, and by reason of his prece- dence as next in the order of rank on the Ways and Means Committee, deserved the honor and the place. Next to Wilson and .Breckinridge, both of whom are now out of Cong ress, McMillian was the best inform ed member of the committee on the subject of tariff, and since this ques ton will be put to the fore in the extra session of Congress called by President Mckinley, McMillian was unquestionably the man to lead the minority party. By virtue of his familiarity with the details Of tariff legislation, McMilIian's services will be indispensable to the Democrats when the tariff question comes up, and for the good of his party it is to be hoped that the brilliant Tennes- seean will .notsulk in his tent because of any disappointments in personal preferences and ambition.

At the last meeting Of the Political Equality club of Lewiston, Pa, the fol lowing statemont was made: Tho tax payers are in the cast ward, 127 mon and 103 women; in the west ward, 137 men and So women in the south ward, 46 men and I3 womon; whole number of men paying tax. 810; whole number of women paying tax, s05 The number of women paying tax in the borough is almost two-thirds the number of men, yet they are not supposed or expected to know how this money is expended and have no voice as to how it shall be used. Is this taxation by representation?

ONE OF WILSON'S CAPTAINS.
A New Yorker Commanded British Ship In the Battle of the Nile.

In tiAe Battle of the Nile.
 The fifth ship was the Theseus, Cap tain Ralph Willett Miller This gentle man, whom after his premature death Nelson styled "the only truly virtuous man ever knew, was by birth Now Yorker, whose family had been loYalists during the American Revolution. A let ter from him to his wife gives an ac. count of the fight which is at once among the most vivid and from the professional standpoint the most satis- factory of those which have been trans nitted to us, Of the Theseus' entrance into the battle he says:
 In running along the enemy's line in she wake of the Jealous and Goliath, I observed their shot sweep just over us. And knowing well that at such mo. ment Frenehmen would not have cool ness enough to change their elevation, I closed them suddenly, and, running under the arch of thoir shot, reserved my fire, every gun being loaded with two and some with three round shot, until had tho GueIrier's masts in a fine and her jibboona about six feet clear of our rigging. We then opened with such effect that q second breath could not be drawn before her main and mig zen masts were also gone. This was pre- cisely at sunset, or 44 minutes past 6. Then passing between her and tho zeal- ous and as close as possible round the off side of the Goliath. we anchored by the stern exactly ill line with her and abreast the Spartiate. We had not been many minutes il action with the Spar tiate when we observed one of our shipa (and soon after knew her to be the Van guard, place herself so directly opposite to us on tho outside of her that l desist cd firing on her, thRt I might not do mischief to our friends, and directed ey- cry gun before the mainmast on the Aquilon {fourth Frenoh) and all abaft it on the Conquerant, giving up my proper bird to tho admiral.

Evolution Of Women.

MT Gleeson White discusses in Cas- sells Family Magazine the subject of the evolution of women. Mir White appfs1aches the matter from an artistic standpoint. There are, be re- marks, several distinct aspects of beau ty-beauty of form, beauty of colos, beauty of wit and beauty of pathos. But the ideals embodying them have not been evolved ill the above, nor in any order, nor has any one preserved it's en- tire supremacy for long The matchless head of Aphrodite still appears absolute Y ssetisfving to o.esalltsfgd taste today, but when you sec it translated to color, as Albert Moore often re-embodied 1t, then is something lest. At the best Mir White considers the Greek and Roman types are unconditional and do not awaken more than aesthetic rapture, for i'll those days even portraiture aimed to elevate the individual to type.
 He would have us go back to Reyn- olds in order to find the highest type of the modern ideal Sir Joshua's DOT trait of Laay William Gordon caught the pathos of the Madonna ideal with the intelligence that has become the womanas share In the Bottieelli vir- gins, or the Raphael, a sweet forgive ness is absolute. In the types of Reyn- olds and Gainsborough, to this charm is added a sense of justice and distinct substratum of wit and yivacity In short the lady" has been evolved, not the saint or the ehatelaine, the minis tering angel or the bluestoaking, but the true woman who can be all these

This Is a New Style Fish Story, and It's a
 Good Ono.
 Lew Emmett. proprietor of grocery store and fish market in Greensburg, Ind, while angling in a creek Saturday caught three peculiar fish the like of which he had never before seen, but which resembled the pickerel. He hur- ried with them to his store, where he has in his show window an aquarium. and launched them again in watery home Previous to their occupancy of the glass tank school of goldfish and silver sinners wore i'll undisputed sway. The following morning, however, all the old inhabitants were dead, and the surface of the water was covered with small bubbles. But the newcomers were as lively as ever.
