UNATTAINABLE IDEALS.

There are poems which stand like monu-
ments grand
OF the poets wonderful thought.
But he never can pen for the children of
men
The best that his mind has wrought.
For the wonderful visions which pass
through the brain
Are so grand that his efforts to write
them are vain-
There is music that thrills with it's deep
notes and trills,
Enhancing our soul with the strain.
But the genius whose song has delighted
the throng
Seeks to give his hearts echoes in
vain,
For oft is his soul with melody stirred.
Whose grand rhythmic music will never
be heard.
With a rapturous gaze we admiringly
praise
A painting whose fame is worldwide.
But the artist could tell, though all he
excel,
That sorrow is mingled with pride,
For he knows that the canvas will never
receive
The highest and noblest his brain can
conceive.
There are hearts touched with grief, that
have found sweet relief,
And have beautiful thoughts unex-
pressed.
And to souls bowed with care, like an
answer to prayer,
Come the dreams of a sweet. lasting
rest,
There are visions of wonders that earth
has not chained
Bright glimpses which show us the yet
unattained.

Tacoma. Wash, Jan. 21.-Major Ed
ward J. Turner. an English army Of
ficer stationed at Bombay. now on his
way to England on a furlough. gives
a graphic description of the horrors of
the plague now devastating Bombay
and other cities of India.
The natives are so wasted by
starvation, said he, that they have
no power to resist the plague. but,
panic-stricken, they fall prey TO the
horrible death. In the outlying dis
tricts, | found the bodies numerous
in the roads. On the banks of the
Ganses, where the CHATS are all lo-
Gated. hundreds of bodies are lying.
waiting their turn to be burned. The
CHATS are small, raised burning piles,
made of stone. The victim is brought
TO the river, if possible, before death,
that he may die by the sacred stream;
then. when he dies, his body is dipped
in the stream, taken out and laid on
the CHAT with a pile of wood under and
above it, and is soon reduced to ashes,
which are swept off into the river.
THE natives look upon the plague as
a scOurge of their god that cannot be
helped, and will look upon any inter-
ference with their religious rites and
superStitiOnS as they looked upon the
regulations requiring them to bite the
cartridges coated with tallOw from their
sacred cattle. which brought on the
SepOy rebellion.
L look for some outbreak, and do not
expect to more than reach home before
being summoned back to my post. The
situation is becoming alarming. The
proposition is being seriously cOnsid-
cred of setting fire to the entire native
quarter of the city. as well as the bar
racks of the native troops, in the hope
of thereby burning out the contagiOn. I
don't know what will be done, for the
whole earth seems laden with the
poison. and it is carried by rats and
other vermin everywhere. Nothing eX-
cept a furnace heat can purify the
quarters where the plague is raging

THE UNION PACIFIC.
Plan of the Purchasing Syndicate
Meets Opposition.

New York, Jan. 21.-The plan of
syndicate bankers recently formed to
purchase the government interest in
the Union Pacific, met unexpected OPP
position today from Russell Sage and
Union and United States Trust COM
panies who declared themselves I'M
alterably opposed to any plan which
contemplates the elimination of the
government in this property Mr.. Sage
considered the interest of the United
States government in this road the
most valuable asset. Sage owns $780,
600 worth of Union Pacific securities;
George Gould represents 100000. two
trust companies control $4,000. 900. AS
Pierpont Morgan holds the same views
as Sage, he believes the plans of the
syndicate will fail.
1t is said that there was serious
disagreement between Mr.. Sage and
George Gould on this matter, and that
the latter has sided with the syndicate.
1t is also said that the views of gdr.
Sage and those of President Fitzgerald,
of the Mercantile Trust company, were
so different on the subject that both
men separated in anger.
Mr.. Sage believes in letting Union

are until the Mckinley administration
is in office and he believes negotiations
can be consummated that will be salts

Interesting Debate by the Mem
bers Concerning the Question.

bers of the house of representatives,

ton of the majority of the committee

ported by MeSsrS. Dearmond (Dem.
MOI, Walker ,(Rep. Mass.) Tucker (the
contestee) and Mccall (Rep- MassO
chairman of the committee reporting
the case.
The recommendation of the minority
that Mr.. Yost (who is the represent

was advocated by Messrs. Grow (Rep.
Pa.) Taylor (Rep. Ohio Lacey (Rep.

Va) and Walker G4ep. Va, the latter
of whom with Mr.. Thomas (Rep. Mlch-)
constituted the minority of the cleo
tions committee. The vote in favor
of Yost was 120, Mr.. Thomas having
changed his vote in order to move a
reconsideration, and this closeness in
duced the friends of the minority, led
by Mr.. Hepburn Rep. Iowa. and Mr..
Thomas to make parliamentary
fight lasting two hours, to force an ad-
journment, in the hope that different
result might be reached tomorrow. But
their efforts were futile and the reso-
luton declaring Tucker entitled to the
seat was adopted at $50 o'clock by a
vote of 119 to Al, IA members being
present and not voting. The result
was clinched by the adoption of mo-
ton to consider the vote and lay that
motion on the table, and the house
