THE.FRozES BREEzE-Did you
ever see a frozen breeze: You
might have seen one IL you had
gone with me into the country one
winter morning.
This was the way it came to be
frozen: All night long the air had
been laden with mist. Over the
fields. in the hollows, all through
the woods, even on top Of the hills,
the fog hung heavily. All that
time the wind blew steadily, but
not fiercely, from some northern
quarter.
AT nightfall the mercury fell be-
low the freezing point, so that this
mist, as it drifted through the
trees, was frozen upon their branch
es and twigs. The elms, the oaks,
and the other leafless trees took
their ice coating quite evenly, but
the thick, impenetrable masses OF
the needles of the pine trees were
covered noticeably only upon the
sides toward the north or north.
west, from which the wind came.
The strong, steady breeze bent the
branches to leeward, while it was
icing them, and when the wind
went down in the morning they all
remained just there, leaning to The
southwark, iced and frozen TO i'm.

the wind were still steadily blow.

Even the afternoon, when the
rain began to fall and wind came
from quite another quarter, thai
north wind of the night before still
remained white and frozen over the
piny woods, the pale, rigid corpse
of thing once keenly alive.-List

4 FATHERLY AssURANCE.-Mr.

of encouragement in his voice as
he remarked

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
The more people agree with us the
more use we generally have for
their opinions.
Some women seem to think they
can influence a man in about the
same way they shoe chickens.
When girl has been told that
she has spiritual face she begins
to try to put on a dreamy, rapt ex-
preston.
A woman never feels the real jey
of shopping till she has mussed
another woman's hair at bargain
counter.
A girl will give o man silver
flask with monogram on it for a
Christmas present and then get mad
If he uses it.-New York Press.

Why don't-they, papa?'

ONE HUNDRED YEARs.-Judge
Ewing, of Chicago, has pronounced
one of the most peculiar sentences
upon Thomas jackson, colored,
that has been heard in the Crimi-
nal Court for several years. He
gets 100 years in prison.
He sentenced the man on five
different charges, directing that as
soon as Jackson has reached the
limit on one he shall begin the SER
vice of another. The charges
against the man were burglary, and
the limit of punishment in each
case is twenty years. Judge Ew-
ing said that Jackson deserved the
full penalty in each case and that
he would SO recommend to the pris-
on authorities.
jackson broke into FIVE different
residences on the night of Decem-
Der %, last. At the home of C..
Christensen he was heard by Dena
the sixteen year old daughter. She
screamed and Jackson slashed her
across the face with a razor. In
the residence of Herman Suhr he
was attacked by Mrs. Suhr who, in
the struggle, had one of her fingers
nearly bitten off.

THE NEW LIBRARY.-The new
Congressional Library, which 10
now being completed, is the finest
building that ever has been built
in the world for Library purposes.
The body Of the building is of pure
marble, the steps, porches and bal
ustrades are of granite and marble,
and the interior decorations of gold
and fresco, adorned lavrshly with
paintings, busts and stataary. The
great dome of the building is cover
ed with beaten, pure gold. 1t is
estimated that the amount of gold
that was put upon the dome exceeds
$4,000. The building is the most
complete, perfect, convenient and
beautiful Library building in the
world, and has cost exceeding &c.
100000.
The frs. Public Library, of which
we have any record in history, was
situated in Babylon, Il. G.. about
$50 years. In those ancient days
books were made by writing and
kept in manuscript. There were
fine Libraries oil. Athens and Rome.
Alexander, the Great. founded q
Library at Alexandria, in Egypt.
IL was one Of the greatest that had
been founded prior to that time.
1t is estimated that there were over
700, 900 volumes in the Alexandria
Library. This Library was burned
up by the order of the Mohamme-
dan Caliph, Omar, in the 18th GEN.
tugy.. A. d., and an iufinity of
treasures were destroyed, which
doubtless gave much information
of the worlds history that is now
lost.
The large Libraries of modern
times now number 1871; there all
have exceeding 100000 volumes.
The largest Library in the world is
the National Library at Paris,
which has 2,701,9 volumes at the
latest report. The British Museum
Library in London is the next in
magnitude; it had 1850, 900 VOL
nmes; the next in magnitude is at
Munich, Germany, having 1,200,-
600 volumes. The Imperial Libra
ry at st. Petersburg has / JOG, 900
volumes, while our Library has
something over $4,000 volumes.
To describe our Library properly
would require a volume. 1t has
been growing in Importance for a
great many years under the imme-
date supervision of Mr.. A. II. Spot
ford, who has been in charge for 80
years, and for the last % years has
been ably assisted by Mr.. David
Hutcheson.
To Senator Voorhees,, of Indiana,
more perhaps, than any one else, is
due the credit of the present mag
nificent building, for he worked for
years persistently and indefatigably
to obtain Congressional sanction to
the plans of the Library and the
necessary appropriations for its
building. The whole construction
and entire responsibility under
Congress was given to Gen. Casey,
who took charge October, 1888.
Gen. Casey died March 25, 1896.
This work will stand to his credit
as the browning glory of useful
and valuable life.

Of gold. measured IN gold. Is exactly
par. The value Of gold dollar, meas
ured in silver bullion, is two dollars
and twenty-five cents. The effect of
bimetallism would be to speedily in
crease the value OF silver fifty-fve per
cent, which would bring it up to one
hundred cents on the dollar, while it
would reduce the value OF gold about
forty-ive per cent, bringing it down
to one hundred cents on the dollar In
other words, it would squeeze out the
extra value which has been legislated
into gold, and would restore TO silver
the value which has been legislatad out
of it.
We ask those who speak and write
n this campaign to preserve this ex-
sract from the Englishman's letter. It
ought to be impressed upon our people
everywhere, that this leading English
monometallist, speaking for his class,
both in England and America, opposes
bimetallism because it would restore
the parity between the metals, and be-
cause it would enable debtors to pay
their debts with honest money, either
Of silver or gold dollars at par with
each other, instead of discharging them
by the payment of forty-five cent silver
dollars or two hundred and twenty
five cent gold dollars.
