There is not Anan in this house to-
day so isolated in life but there is some
one in Heaven with whom he once
shook hands. AS a man gets older, the
number of his celestial acquaintance
very rapidly multiplies. We have not
had one glimpse of them since the
night we kissed them good-by, and
they went away; but still we stand
gazing at Heaven. AS when some of
our friends go across the sea, we stand
on the dock, or on the steam tug, and
watch them, and after awhile the hull
of the vessel disappears, and then there
is only patch of sail on the sky, and
soon that is gone, and they are all out
of sight, and yet we stand looking in
the same direction; SO when our friends
go away from us into the future world
we keep looking down through the
Narrows) and gazing and gazing, as
though we expected that they would
come out and stand on some cloud, and
give us one glimpse of their blissful
and transfgured faces.
While you long to join their compan-
ionship, and the years and the days go
with such tedium that they break your
heart, and the viper of pain and sorrow
and bereavement keeps gnawing at
y
Stephen, gazing into Heaven You
wonder if they have changed since you
saw them last. You wonder if they
would recognize your face now, so
changed has it been with trouble. You
wonder if, among the myriads delights
they have, they care as much for you
as they used to when they gave you
helping hand and put their shoulder
under your burdens. You wonder if
they look any older; and sometime in
the eveningtide, when the house is all
quiet, you wonder if you should call
them by their first name if they would
rot answer; and perhaps sometimes
you make the experiment, and when no
one but God and yourself ate there you
distinctly call their names and listen,
and sit gazing into Heaven.
Pass on now, and see Stephen looking
upon Christ My text says he saw the
Son of Man at the right hand of God.
Just how Christ looked in this world,
just how He looks in Heaven, we can
not say. A writer in the time of Christ
says, describing the Saviour's personal
appearance, that He had blue eyes and
ngnu complexlon, amt a very grace1ul

GOV. Adams, Rni1road Pass.

Gov. Adams acquaintance with the
conductors on the Rio Grande Railroad
saved him from paying fare or walking
into Denver the other day from Sedaha, -
said a fellow passenger, according to the
Denver Times. "He had entered the coach
at the station and when the conductor
came along produced the pass he carries
all the time.
GU do not have to attach revenue
stamps to railroad passes, ventured the
collector of fares.

utiVe of the state. What makes you sug-
gest that L have attached stamps TO my

Because you have done So replied
the conductor.
I guess not" answered the Governor;
I know better than that
Then look here. Who has had your
pass?' and with this statement the con-
ductor handed it back to the Governor.
THE face of the pass was covered with
revenue stamps. They were sticking to ii,
having been attached by the dampness
gathered in a sweaty pocketbook.

A Damper on Pntriotism.

Dodson is very patriotic. When the first
call to arms resounded through the land he
was consumed with burning desire to
hasten to the front. But the thought that
he had a wife dependent upon him babe
him pause.
With the second call for troops came the
Old desire to fight for his country, but he
did not dare face the tears and pleadings
of his wife.
Then came the glorious news from San
tiago which inhamed him anew with pa
riotic enthusiasm, and he resolved to de-
lay no longer. He felt that his country
needed him more than his wife did
TO fortify himself against his wife's
tears he took her gently in his arms, and,
resting her head upon his breast, where
he could not see her eyes, he told her that
he was going to the front II was a duty he
owed TO his country, he said. He pictured
the glorious life of the soldier fighting for
the flag he loves so well. He babe her be
brave. He showed her how she could do
her duty at home While he was lighting
at the front.
She lay very still and quiet in his arms
when he had finished. Dodson felt it was
a solemn hour for both of them. Stnl he
would do his duty.
Finally his wife raised her head from
where she had pillowed it and looked calm
iy and trHstingly into the eyes of her nus
band
John" she said, in a low. sweet voice
that made him thrill John, how much
pension does widow draw?''
DodsOn Is very patriotic, but neverthe-
less he has resolved 10 stay at home.

MIR. Plant Looking Ahead.

There has beeh considerable speculation
as TO the purpose of MIR. H. b. Plants
visit to England at the present time. There
is a report to the effect that it is to in
terest English capital in the building of a
railway throughout the entire length of
the island of Cuba.
There are quite a number of short lines
of railway in the island but there is no
general system of railways by which an
the important points of the island can be
reached. The roads which are in operation
are an owned by English and Spanish com
panes. About three years ago. or about the
time that the insurrection broke out, Mr.
Plant tried to get these English and Span
ish companies to join forces with him and
give Cuba first-class railway system, but
they declined TO accept his proposition at
that time, because of the troublesome po-
lltical outlook, and Mr.. Plant was inclin
ed TO think little later on, that the time
was not propitious for the undertaking. His
idea was to establish a fine railway sys-
tenn in Cuba and connect it with the rail-
way systems of this country by means of
his steamship lines running between the
principal Cuban ports and Tampa, and
meeting his railway system at the latter
place.
He doubtless thinks the time has arrived
for carrying out his original scheme. Of
course, his intention Is 10 interest the own
ers of the Cuban railways in his project. In
that there is no reason TO doubt that he
VIII be successful. If MIR. Plants idea were
carried into effect the roads now in oper-
alton in Cuoa would be Immensely more
valuable than they are.
If Mr.. Plant should be successful in his
! undertaking his steamship line between
Tampa and Havana would assume far
greater importance than 1t now has. 1t
would become a line of many steamers, the
| chief of which probably would be the
Grand Duchesse, and it would connect the
! Plant System of railways at Tampa with
the principal ports Of the chief islands of
the Greater Antilles.

sion lasted all the way to church, through
the sermon, home to dinner, from CLANS
to coffee, and was seething when the
night parting came. On Monday it was
renewed and every acquaintance they met
was held up for an answer. 1t begins
to take on the awful proportions of an
endless chain. Up to last night no decis-
ion had been reached, as the yeas and
nays were even. II happens that there
was only one chair in the shop. The

The Man with the stamp to Sell.

The 2-cent stamp racket is the latest
scheme of clever street fakirs for separat-
ing people from their money, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch A weather beaten spe-
cimen of the genus tramp viii hold up a
man on the street, or in a business office,
exhibit 2-cent stamp in good condition.
and ask for the money, saying he needs
the coppers worse than the stamp itself.
Nine times out of ten he gets the money,
and the other man pockets the stamp.
One merchant, who was thus accosted,
felt there was something behind the appar-
emily simple scheme, and followed the
tramp when he left his office The hobo
went across the street TO another office.
The man behind him entered the door just
in time to see the tramp, with dirty and
weatherbeaten enVetop in his hand, earn
estly explaining to the clerk that he want
ed to write to his dear mother, but did
not have the necessary money. A stamp
was forthcoming instantly. Then the anna
teur detective stepped aside until the hobo
came out, following him once more, and
saw him trying to sell the stamp in a store
a little farther down the street.
When accused of the swindle the hobo
merely grinned and said a man had TO live.
He said anybody could spare two cents,
and it was better to get IL from him artis-
tically than to knock him down and rob
him. 1t is thought he made from 81 to So a
day by industriously working this new
scheme.
