MERRlE HENGLAND, AGAIN.

indianapolis Sun.-Quite au-
thentic advices from Europe con
vey the intelligence that our mawk.
ish friend, dear hold merry Heng-
land, is extending aid to Japan in
the latter's opposition to the an
nexation of Hawaii DO the United
States.
We can hardly do otherwise than
regard the report as veracious.
Past history indicates that when
ever any country tries to extend its
powers, no matter what the reason,
England usually attempts to stop it.
1t would be an odd situation, indeed,
if England should in the present in
stance attend to her own business.
She seems to expect all other ma
tons to stand still, with closed eyes
to her outrageous deeds in endeav-
ors to secure more territory, yet she
almost invariably exercises her coer-
Give powers against other countries
when they seek to enrich themselves,
or even claim their own. She
claims TO stand as the christianizer
of the world, yet she smiles upon
and condones a dirty filibustering
expedition in south Africa, deliber-
ately attempts to steal from the
Venezue.ans, stealthily tries to filch
part of Alaska, deals with the devil
ish Turk with soft words, and her
most powerful papers virtually up
hold the hellish hidalgo while he ir-
rigates Cuba with human blood.
These are few samples of British
christianity. Now she adds to her
chaste record with opposition to
Hawaiian annexation, on the basis
that size wants the island as a sup
ply st ton. But what's the matter
with Uncle Sam having it for the
same purpose?
The attitude of England, despite
her numerous, ELUSIVE protestations
of steadfast affection, is the same
old England Of Others years, the hog
Of the world, with whom might il
same o!d enemy as of
civil war times and the identical, i,
despot of the stamp-act
period. Her plagued insolence is
a red rag before the American eye,
and, in the face of the cry of lingo
ism, great big section of America
would enjoy nothing more than ty-
ing knots in the lions tail.

JASPER. INDIANA. FRIDAY. AUGUST g. 1897.

This was the first time in the
history of the county majority OF
voters presented a petition of this
nature before the Board of Com
missioners.
"We should praise the Lord, for

The outlook for the coming year
is most encouraging.
There is plenty of work to be
done will we do our part?
Ifelch one does her whole duty,
the results will take care of them
selves.
Trusting in our God for guidance
may we able to say:
whichever way the wind doth blow,
Some heart is glad TO have it so,
And blow it east, or blow il west,
The wind that blows, that wind is best
My little barge sails not alone:
A thousand crafts from every zone
Are out upon thousand seas.
What proves for one favoring breeze,
Might dash another with the shock
OF doom, upon hidden rock.
And so il is, dare not pray
For winds TO watt me on my way,
But leave it TO higher will,
To stay, or speed me, trusting still
That all is well, and sure that He,
Who launched my barque, will sail Will
me
Through calm or storm, and will not fai
Whatever breezes may prevail
To land me safe, all dangers past,
Within the sheltered haven at last.
Then whatsoever wind doth blow
My heart is glad TO have it so,
And blow II east or blow it west,
That wind that blows, that wind is best. ,

Quite a sensation was caused at
the little town of Afford two miles
east of Petersburg by the actions OF
John VanMeter, q young married
man. John had enjoyed q life OF
single blessedness until short time
ago, when he married the daughter
of John Wolvin, it being consid-
cred the best thing for his health
that he could do.
Evidently, however, the union
did not yield the unalloyed pleasure,
the free, wild, hilarious Joy, and the
pure, beautiful, excruciating happi-
ness that Johns poetic soul SO fond
ly prayed for-and, indeed, it seemed
that he would pray on in vain till
the COWS come home-but John saw
the fair daughter Of Perry Coonrod
and from the ashes Of his old love
sprang up stout, vigorous and ex-
hilirating attachment, warm as a
July rabbit, for Miss Coonrod.
Thus the new love drifted on un-
til John was completely yanked in
to the vortex of wild affection, from
which none escape without scorched
wings. This was no Venus ard
Adonis affair, so last Monday John
committed his last rash act by elop-
ing with Miss Coonrad, and leaving
his wife to mourn his departure.

GENERAL HARRiS0Ns BOOK.

The Indianapolis Journal prints
this interesting story concerning ex-
President Harrison's forthcoming
book: Gen. Harrison has Just com
pleted the revision of his articles
which have appeared in The Ladies
Home Journal, making extended
notes and additions to them. There
is little story in connection with
both parties and publication. When
the arrangement for the articles was
made with General Harrison by
Edward w. Box, editor OF The
Ladies' Home Journal, the Gene raj
was paid for them, with the under
standing that when they were put
into book form the magazine was to
share the royalties accruing there
from. Mr.. Box, however, Of his
own accord, generously released
General Harrison from paying him
any royalty, for the reason, as he
states, that by the publication of
the articles by General Harrison the
subscription list Of his magazine was
enlarged many thousands. The
profits to The Ladies' Home Jour-
nal were more than the publishers
anticipated, and in view Of this Mr..
Box asks nothing further. General
Harrison placed the disposition Of
his book in Mr.. Bok's hands. The
best offer came to the editor from
the Scribners, and to them Mr.. Box
gave the book for his distinguished
contributor. General Harrison's
revision Of the book has just been
completed, and the volume will ap-
pear in the autumn.

drew J Stott, young attorney of
this city who was recently discharg-

the Insane at Indianapolis, again
became violently insane to-day,
and it was necessary to return him
to indianapolis.
He was found up tree two miles
east of here this morning, without a
stitch of clothes. He had slashed
his body with a razor in a horrible
manner. In his mad flight he ran
into a barbed wire fence, and added
new wounds to his already badly
lacerated body.

My darling's heart is tender:
III her ways are passing sweet.
She's radiant ray Of splendor
From her topnot TO her feet;
There's look OF sweet, sweet sadnes Q
In her great, big, liquid eyes,
And she deems il awful badness
To enmesh and torture fies.
Yesterday she saw q fellow
Plying fearfully his goad;
She implored in accents mellow
That he might decrease his load.
All, her heart In true and tender
Yet she wears bluebird's wing
Just to gain little splendor-
But that's quite another thing!

Not long ago great numbers of Australia's
huge army of unemployed were attracted by
stories of fabulous gold panning at Papua and
other interior points in New Guinea. Their
ranks have been thinned by murder, starva-
tion and fatal swamp fevers.
To make matters worse, every native who
helped a white man was marked for the toma.
hawk. The remnant of these white pioneers
went to vanapa for final effort to make
their fortunes and return. Their stores gave
out and for months they lived on "damper"
and tea.
