THE DYING EDITOR
Delivered a Last Message 10 His City
Man.

"The owner Of a paper lay dying
In his lair, and the dew Of death |
had gathered on bis brow so calm
and ialr; but a printer knelt beside |
him, as his life blood ebbed away, !
aud asked the dying editor 1t he |
had a word 10 say. The doomed
man murmured softly as he grab
bed the printers fist, We'll, at last
the struggles over aud l never
will be missed
Take a message and token TO
that city man Of mine, that all his
woru-out chesnuts he had better
put in brine. There's his joke about
the weather, which he has used
these many years, aud the gag
about the fellow who is always
hunting beer. And the item he's
so fond Of, on the man who peddles
books, and the chestnut based on
people who 20 fishing in the brooks
Just to save the papers credit, and
TO cast no slurs on mine, l would
ask him as favor to put such
gags in brine. Aud the lies he's
fond of telling Of the street cars
and the tracks, and the one about
some dandy who will meyer pay for
clothes, aud the one on women
cleaning house-it's weary, heaven
knows
"Oh, / know III slumber happy
IN my grave beneath the vine, If the
man who does the city work will
put these Jokes in brine. Tell the
man who tends to business not to
weep when l am dead, but to buy
himself a club, aud hit the first man
on the head, who comes in with
strings of items and requests them
printed free, when the regular
rates are cheaper than they really
ought to be. Tell the foreman
when he makes up not to turn a
rule for me, but to simply print an
item saying that my soul is free;
for want no eulogistic tahy of that
kind IN mine, and l think such
hoary chestuuts should be picked
well in brine,
"Have that gay and fresh re-
porter I engaged the other day put
a stop to saying 'Selah, also We
have come to stay, and il he
should say 'Ye local you must
trample in his gore, tor you know
I'd ne'er allow it in the happy days
of yore. And the man who comes
to tell you how to run the paper,
we'll should be greeted with q
chestnut bell; and you'll print the
paper promptly, be the weather
full of storms, and the foreman
must be careful when he is making
up the forms, that the beauty o.
the paper may through all ages
shine, and not be like its neighbors,
only fit to put in brine"

The majority Of people will find
the work o. life near at hand. 1t
may be perhaps, to correct the
faults in ones self, to sweeten the
atmosphere OF home, TO bless the
local church, to consecrate ones
business, or to purify the political
atmosphere. Trite and true as IS
this statement, it is a difficult one
TO apprehend. II we set0urselves
to master it, the task is soon aban-
doned; and we are looking far
away for some other and greater
work to do. The most successful
and useful minister is the man
whose labors are confined strictly to
the cultivation of the one vineyard
committed to his care. The minis
ter's best helper is that member OF
hls church who finds duty near at
hand, and can always be relied up
on to sustain the home church in
its regular, constituted work.

American Securities Abroad.

The sales OF American securities
have been, according to London,
advices, very large abroad of late,
and there appears to be tendency
toward increase in the sales. If this
state of things holds, there will be
an increasing influx of British gold
into this market. This is good news
and demonstrates the faith abroad
in the stability of our credit. There
is another point OF faith for which
the people not only OF this but
foreign countries have good grounds
for credence, and that is, belief in
the efficacy of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters for inorganic maladies
which affect the stomach, liver,
bowels, kidneys and nerves. Dys-
pepsia, biliousness, constipation,
rheumatism, and a tendency to
insomnia, are counteracted and
conquered by it. 1t rallies failing
appetite, hastens convalescence,
and diffuses a generous warmth and
sensation of physical comfort
through the system. A wineglass-
full before retiring promotes health

Of them At this rate he will en-
tirely wipe out and abolish our pen
iteutiary in less than four years, II
he happens to get second term.
Yet some few say they think Gov.
Jones has not liberated a single
criminal where he thought it was
not deserved Then he shows very
poor Judgment and is to be held ac-
countable therefor. Do not forget
the fact, Gov. Jones went into Of
flee on the 18th Of January, 1885,,
aud to January 18th, 1898, he par
doned 297 convicted criminals. No
other Governor has a record half
so bad as this, yet some have been
turned down for abuse Of the par
doning power; but tor that we be-
lieve Hughes would have COTTON a
third term. If Coy, Jones is to
keep his pardoning mill grinding
he should call the Legislature IN
extra session at once, and ask it to
abolish our criminal courts, as they
are, under his administration, a
useless expense. We like Governor
Jones, personally, but positively
cannot endorse his official record as
Governor.

heavily on Democrats, Let every
good Democrat first consider the

the first requisites. Let us never

Mr.. Moody advises Christians to
starve rather than work on Sun

evangelist is both sincere and cour-

his own advice if occasion should
ever arise. But his host of friends
all over the world will hope that the
occasion will never arise. In the
meantime the men who run the
cars that haul people to church on
Sunday show no disposition to give

Balzac never uttered a greater
truth than when he said: ITO live
in the presence OF great truths and
eternal laws, to be led by perma-
nent ideals-that is what keeps a
man patient when the world ignores
him, and calm and unspoiled when
the world praises him" Our ideals
essentially mold our characters,
and only those who have permanent
ideals, can hope to plant their feet
upon the lofty summit, and battle
their brows IN THE eternal sunlight

The New York Tribune very just
ly asserts: No one seeks to with
draw pensions from those soldiers
who are entitled to them under
even the very liberal laws now in
force. What is sought is first, to
purge the pension list of fraud;
second, to limit payments to sol
diers entitled to them and to those
dependent upon them when the
pension was earned.

fact that volunteers who have served

PEELED, hungry and sick, to beg their
way home"
The Washington Times says:
" Never was the press more unani-
nous, never more severe and sincere
in ita comments, and never less actu-
ated by political or personal animus,
Most papers would rather praise than
blame and they were strangely patient

and neglect, 1t was not until huPG'
reds OF the lives of the soldiers who
had entered the army after rigid ex-
animation had been sacrificed, and
thousands Of the most robust had be-
come physical wrecks, that the cry
became fierce for an inquiry that
would place the blame. II is true that

lives of many more, but the proVoea-

"The most distressing aud the most

"The errors and crimes Of which
the heroes Of our army have been the
victims are SO many and SO great as to
render it impossible for the president
