A Correspondent.

Robertsville. April 9.
On the pleasant Sunday morning of
March 25th when all nature seemed in
harmony and the birds were merrily
warbling and singing their wedding
hymns the quiet little hamlet of
Mapleton was surprised by the an
nouncement that a wedding ceremony
was being performed at the residence of
Henry Martin. Henry Burlin who has
made his home with Henry Martins for
some time, married his former wife,
from whom he has been separated for
some time. May joy and happiness
attend them the remainder of their
lives.
On Thursday evening, March 29th,
after Prof. II. Clark Thayer dismissed
his class in music, number of the lads,
about 16 in number, called on Henry
Burlin. The lads must have been well
treated, for when they returned to Ma
pleton, gave three cheers, and each
returned to his home with a smile on his
face and singing "Oh, when 1 was sin
gle how the money used to Jingle"

do with the Mormon question. They
knew he had picked UP and carted away
a good deal of filth from the streets
of Canton when street commissioner
but they didn't know there were any
polygamists in the refuse. Henry Leo
nard had also been street commissioner
but 1t seems that the boys were not
smoking Utah tobies during his term
and didn't throwawaS any Mormon stubs
for him to sweep up. That road to fame
had not been discovered at that time
anyhow, and IL there had been any
polygamist butts laying around loose
Leonard would probably have
overlooked them. At any rate that
feature of the campaign was entirely
lost sight Of by the partisans Of other
candidates and Hill played the dodge
for all 1t was worth. 1t is said that he
had lot of Utah butts made over into
real cigars and handed them out during
the campaign. Every Fellow that got
one Immediately got a stroke of morality
and saw visions of Mormon invasions
and the capture of the Eighteenth dis
trict by the progeny of the distinctly
plural Brigham Roberts. Every fellow
that got one of the cigars got up and
howled for Hill, who had administered
the treatment, and for Tayler, who was
one of the beneficiaries by contract. Hill
had not forgotten to put a contagious
germ in each cigar. The effect was seen
in the result of the primaries. 1t was a
strong cigar-a veritable Josiah Strong
cigar. 1t was more potent than any
letter any Canton preacher ever receiv-
ed from anywhere.
Hill carried every precinct in Canton
but two, and he got a fair share else
where. Henry Leonard was next high
est in Canton. James Valleley was turn
ed down cold and Ellis Lewis got the
frosted hand in many places where he
had been promised support. 1t is said
that some workers he had supplied with
certain matters he considered relevant
to his candidacy did not show up at
the polls at all and some others just
stood around and did nothing or work.
ed quietly for some one else. All the
votes Lewis got was on his personal
popularity. Those who were to have
done the most for him did the least.
But while Lewis did not get all the
votes he needed he secured one of the
finest collections of experiences that has
been displayed in this city since the
glorious days of Abe Either.
The claims of Alliance did not get
much consideration in Canton. An ALI
ance man goes out of the commissioner s
office. Canton has one commissioner,
Summer, and Massillon one, Crawford.
But the Alliance men got into wrangle
among themselves at the outset. which
weakened their opportunity to win and,
besides, the managers of Tayler would
hardly have cared to combine with a
candidate in the home town of Tayler's
congressional opponent. So the claims
of Alliance got no recognition to speak
of and that city will just have to keep
on furnishing the majorities and let
the remainder of the county furnish the
candidates Total vote in Canton

While the British secret service Sys-
tenn as a whole is hopelessly ineff1-
cient, having been brought to that
state by parsimonious Parliaments. In
the matter of spies at foreign courts it
is more successful than the system Of
any other nation in the world. To a
nation in England's position of "splen-
did isolation" it is of the most vital
Importance. that her government
should be kept aware of everything i'm
portant that occurs, or is likely to oc-
cur, in foreign courts, especially courts
of monarchs whose pledges and assu-
RANGES of good faith cannot be relied
upon implicitly. England has eyes and
ears in every court in Europe, and
rarely are these spies British subjects.
It must have been noticed, for instance,
that Great Britain has frequently of
recent years "intelligently anticipated"
important moves which were secretly
contemplated by foreign powers, and
slipped in day or two before. How is
it done? How does the government of
that country learn of the contemplated
moves in time to "steal the march?"
Probably no one person upon earth is
aware of the identity of all Great
Britain's spies in foreign courts, and
they do not all come under the control
of any one government. The Foreign
Office is in touch with the majority of
these valuable servants of the crown;
others are sent out by the Indian Gov
ernment, independently of the India
office. OF these latter the most inn
portant is the spy whose duty is TO
keep the Indian government informed
of the doings Of the Ameer of Afghan
istan, who requires careful watching
not so much because he is inclined to
be crafty as because it is eminently
desirable that he should not be drawn

\ Justice. 3a5s5 3 Z !

About eighty years ago a gawky boy
Of twelve arrived at a country academy
in Ohio. He had been three months
on the road, having come all the way
from New Hampshire. In those days
there were no railways, and it is doubt
full If he could have used one. had it
existed, for he was very poor. His
father was dead, and his uncle, away
of in Ohio wilderness, as it was then,
had offered to give him home if he
would come for it. and he had accept
ed the offer. His uncle was pioneer
bishop, who kept school and at the
same time carried on a farm. Salmon
for that was the boys queer name
was given the chores to do, and on
holidays and vacation times he worked
upon the farm. One of his schoolmates
says that at tnat time he was. about as
awkward a boy as was ever seen in
place. He was very near-sighted, he
stammered, and he was SO stoop-shoul-
dered, shambling and slouchy in his
appearance and gait that he was gen.
eral laughing stock. And worse, for
his STOPPING habit had cramped Ibis
lungs, and he was already feeble and
consumptive. There is told of him
about that time a funny story, which
gives an idea of his character. One
day his uncle was called away on busi-
ness, and before starting he told Sal
mon to leave school early enough in
the afternoon to kill and dress pig.
After much trouble Salmon caught the
pig and killed it. But now could he get
the hair off? He had heard that the
farmers usually scalded hogs, SO he
heated kettle of water and soused the
pig in. But the water was too hot, or.
the pig was kept in too long; at any
rate, instead Of being loosened, the hair
was set and would not come out at

the roof of the theater, says recent
issue of the Pail Mall Gazette. This
signal is full of meaning. 1t is the
nractice of French masons when they
have finished their share OF building
to crown it with flags, so that the ap-
pearance of bunting on the summit Of
the Theater Franchise indicates that
the heavy work is finished, and that
the field is now clear for the ca:ren-
ters and joiners. Nor is this the cnly
