A figure by my fireside staid.
Plain was her garb and veiled her face.
A presence mystical she made
Nor changed her attitude nor place.
Did neglect my household ways
For pleasure wrought Of pen or bookf
She sighed murmur of dispraise,
At which methought the rafters shook.
Me young Delight did often win
My patient limits to outgn
Thereafter, when l entered in,
That shrouded guest did threatening
show
The SHOWS Of life to chill me fell
Where many gracious mate lay dead
And moved my heart to break the spell
By that ungracious phantom laid.
Now, who art thou that didst not smile
When my maddest jest devised2
Who art thou, stark and grim the while
That men my tune and measure prizedf
Without her pilgrim staff she rose,
Her weeds Of darkness cast aside,
More dazzling than Olympian SHOWS
The beauty that those weeds did hide.
Most like solemn symphony
That lifts the heart from lowly things,
The voice with which she spoke to me
Did loose Contrition at its springs.
o Duty, visitor divine,
Take all the wealth my house affords,
But make thy holy methods minel
Speak to me thy SURPRISING words
Neglected once and undiscerned,
pour my homage at thy feet.
Till thy sacred law have learned
Nor Joy nor life can be complete.

Lengthy Session. ~

The President and His Advisers Hold
Lengthy Session.
Washington, Sept. 15.-Great interest
was attached to the cabinet meeting
Tuesday on account of variousimpor-
tant questions which are impending and
the fact that 1t was the first meeting
in some weeks. Every member Of the
cabinet, except Secretary Lohg, who is
out of the. city, reached the White
House promptly at II o'clock and each
had with him an unusually large num-
ber of papers and documents relating
to matters pending in his department.
Owing to the volume of business to be
considered 1t was decided at 1880. after
the session had lasted two and a half
hours. to take a recess for lunch and
continue the session at o'clock. The
morning session was devoted almost en-
tirely to the consideration of the Union
Pacific question, presumably the ad-
visibility of taking an appeal from the
decree of the United States court at
Omaha for the sale of the property
under foreclosure proceedings. The
members Of the cabinet were very re-
ticent, an injunction having been placed
on them not to talk of the matter at
this time, but Ii was stated that an
announcement relative to the course the
government would pursue might be ex-
pected in the course OF ten days. The
cabinet also discussed the San Pedro.
Cal, harbor project and Attorney Gem
eral McKenna rendered an opinion
which will be formally promulgated
which is to the effect that Secretary
Alger should proceed under the law to
carry out the project of building
breakwater and making other improve
ments at San Pedro. The civil service
decision in the Wood case and it's effect
on the law was also informally talked
over. Neither the decision on discrim-
mating section % of the tariff act nor
the Cuban or Hawaiian questions were
mentioned at the meeting.

A Slight Accident
Often Causes Severe Kidney Trouble-A
A Muslxegon Lady's Experience.


How often sudden accident, a slip or fall
gives the back twist and deranges the deli
cate fbers Of the kidneys, which have their
duties TO perform and must be in condition
to perform them. They carry off the poison.
GUS acids from the blood, and if they get out
of order and refuse to do this, the whole system
is affected by the poisonous uric acid carried
to all parts in the blood. So it is that slight
accidents a strain, a fall, or little twist in
the back amounting to very little of itself
often results disastrously if neglected. Doan s
Kidney Pills are designed to restore the kid
neys to healthy action. That they do this is
easily proven by the statements of the public.
A well-known lady of Muskegon is Mrs.
Emily j. Andrus, whose comfortable home is
ut 16 E. Diana Street. She spoke of her ex-
perience as follows:
"Some time ago had a terrible fall and 1t
affected me in the back and kidneys. Oh, how
It hurt me in through the back got so
lame and sore could hardly stir. suffered

Saginaw, Mich, Sept. 13.-J. II. Griffin.
a travelling salesman, was arrested at
his house here Saturday by Deputy
Sheriff Mike Garvin, of Isabella county.
Just before his arrest Griffin told that
he had hidden away from the officers
because he feared to tell what he knew
of the death of Banker Struble. He
said: II know a little about that Shep-
herd affair, but / will not disclose what
1 know until the proper time. l have
been warned by one Of the occupants
of the mysterious rig which went away
from the bank that morning saw them,
that If 1 opened my mouth about the
affair 1t would cost me my life.
IT know that If any burned books
were found in the furnace under the
bank they were placed there more than
a week after Struble was killed. If
the Shepherd authorities will search the
basement of the Catholic church they
will find things that will create sem
sation, unless these things have been
removed" Beyond this Griffin refused
to talk, and he left Saturday night in
charge of Deputy Sheriff Garvin for
Mount Pleasant. The facts brought out
at the coroner's inquest weaken the
suicide theory.

the justice has granted them this
time to pursue their Investigations. No
new developments turned UP. except a
showing of a deficiency of $629.51 in the
