Their away from her and presently when
she sank down exhausted in a swamp
the light disappeared altogether.
Whatever truth there may be in the
story, it forcibly illustrates the career of
many a woman who has followed the
marsh fire of love in the belief that it led
to home and comfort and found herself
at last exhausted and deceived.
IT'S BITTER LESSON
learned by many a woman who thought
love all-sufficient, that love alone cannot
be the foundation of the home. 1t needs
health. Strange as it may seem the
beautiful loving woman who is weak
may lose the love of the husband for
whom she broke all home ties, while on
the other hand a woman who has no
greater dover than robust health may
win and hold the love of her husband
past all possibility of loss. The first re-
quisite Of marriage is health. The wife S
first necessity is health. Health must
be the mothers or she will know no
happiness in her children. What makes
ill-health so common among women
Why do they suffer with headache, back
ache and pains past description? These
sufferings are in general caused by dis
ease of the delicate womanly organs, and
they are in general durable by the use of
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.

DURBlN AND KENTUCKY.

The refusal of Governor Durbin, of
Indiana, to honor the requisition of
the governor of Kentucky for the sur
render of Ex-Governor Taylor of the
same state does the Indianian credit.
1t may be that Taylor is guilty of
completely in the murder of Governor
Goebel, but it would be no part of the
object of the trial to find out whether
he is guilty. The object for which
the governor asked that Taylor might
be delivered up was that he might be
convicted, and either imprisoned for
life or executed. Had Governor Dur
bin handed over the ex-governor for
trial he would be party to his con-
viction. He would not consent to be
this. He refused, as he says, because
the court before which Taylor would
be tried would be partisan to the
very extreme of vindictiveness" and
the jury "organized for conviction in
its personnel and impeachment
That is pretty hard arraignment
of the court methods of Kentucky by
the governor of a neighboring state,
but there is little doubt of its justice.
The courts appear to be about as
partisan as do the politicians. In
fact, the courts are presided over by
politicians, and decisions are rarely
given there now that involve political
interests but are given in favor of the
one side. 1t is all politics, and polit-
zeal life in Kentucky, as well as in
some of the other states, has fallen
very low.
The constitution of the United
States provides that"A person charged
in any state with any crime, who
shall flee from justice and be found in
another state shall, on the demand of
the executive authority of the state
from which he has fled be delivered
up, to be removed to the state having
Jurisdiction of the crime. /"
This is most important provision,
but it is not more important than
that other one which pnovides that
SIN all criminal prosecutions the
accused shall enjoy the right to a
speedy and public trial, by an impartial
jury of the state and district wherein
the crime shall have been committed. y
Persons who may blame Governor
Durbin for his refusal to comply with
the first provision will be compelled tc
acknowledge that he has good grounds

Illustrative of the baneful power of the
marsh fire, there is told the story of a
woman who lost her way. She turned
in this direction and in that, hopelessly
puzzled as to her Whereabouts in the
murky night. Presently ahead of her
she saw the CLEAN of light At once
she saw in fancy the picture of home, the
lamp in the window, the coy comfort of
those under the shelter Of the protecting
roof, ucurtained and closed and warm"
Steadfastly she moved towards the light.

its position. 1t was always little far

OUR MILITARY ACADEMY
New Buildings Necessity at West Point

The most important feature of the
report of the board of visitors to the
West Point Military academy is a
recommendation that the academy be
rebuilt. The report says: sit has
been nearly 100 years since West
Point was founded and from the
birth of the institution nearly
all the improvements have been on
the patchwork plan. There is but
one building constructed by the gov
eminent at the post that is in har-
mony with this day and generation.
All the others are old, uncomfortable
and entirely inadequate for present
conditions. Few of them are equipped
with any of the conveniences to be
found in the average public building
in the country districts of many of the
states. 1t can be truthfully said that
there is pressing necessity for COM
plete tearing down and a new building
up. The policy pursued in this re-
gard at Annapolis should be speedily
adopted at West Point. Nothing can
be gained by postponement. Indeed
it seems to the board that almost
every dollar spent in the future for
enlarging here and altering and patch
ing is so much money thrown away
The enlarged duties and responsible
ties of the military as related to the
recently enlarged sphere of American
influence and power is such as not only
to justify but force congress to proper
recognition of the demands of the
military academy. Putting the mat
ter IN few words, itcan be truthfully
said that the barracks in which the
cadets sleep and study and live when
not in recitation room on the drill
ground, are little better equipped than
the barracks at the average county s
poor house. In many Of the rooms
three cadets are crowded. The ven-
tilation of the rooms is in accordance
with the hygienic notions of cen.
tury ago and is simply execrable. -

The time has come as is evident
when halt must be called. Yellow
journalism must be restricted if the
lives of our Presidents are to be pre-
served. The holding upof the chief
magistrate to public contempt, the

conspiracy organized for the purpose
of destroying the welfare of the labor
ing man, the iminal and dastardly
excitatiOn of weak minded crankS and
marplots-all this is to stop.-Syracuse

seems to be sort of fatality in the
fact that when the Democrats Use

Is there not high precedent for such
occurrences and such shiftings? Does
it not stand recorded in the book of
books that the stone which had been
rejected was afterwards selected for a
corner stone? Let the editor of the
Plymouth Tribune turn to his Bible
and study the why's and wherefores of
these mutations. 1t is true. the
names of Senators German, Hill and
Smith were Kissed at the state conven-
ton of 1894 by excitable and irascible
disciples of Grover Cleveland, but in
two short years afterwards the shoe
that pinched was on the other foot
and the admirers Of Cleveland had the
cup of bitterness held to their lips.

happen. Up one year and down the
next. There is nothing more tickle

"What does a lion weight" Ask that
question of any acquaintance, and see
what he will say. Those who know
the look of the king of beasts best, and
how small his 1.-THE body really is. will
probably come furthest away from the
truth. About 300 to $50 pounds is a
usual estimate. But this is below the
mark. A full-grown lion viii tip the
scale at no less than 500 pounds. Five
hundred and forty pounds is the rec
ord for an ordinary lion. His bone is
solid and heavy as ivory.
The tiger runs the lion very close. A
Bengal tiger, killed two years ago by
an English officer, scaled $50 pounds.
A tiger OF this size has, however, con-
siderably greater muscular strength
than the biggest lion. Few people
know that a grizzly bear can give
points to any other carnivorOus animal
in point of strength. A grizzly bear
weighing just four hundredweight has
been watched carrying a heifer of
more than twO-thirds its own weight
for two miles up the most steep and
rugged mountain side, and this with
out pausing for one instant for rest
The grizzly bear is the largest and
most powerful of all the bear tribe, but
his cousin, the cinnamon bear, runs
him very close; and the big white polar
bear, though not really so dangerous
a customer, is capable of performing
the most extraordinary feats OF
strength. A polar bear has been seen

men had with difficulty put in position

that he should cry-that he should be so
sorry when she was so glad. She took
her little handkerchief out of the pocket

CHAPTER XVIII.

The garden of the hotel at Sydenham
had originally belonged to private house.
or great extent, it had been laid out in
excellent taste. Flower beds and lawns,
handsome fountain, seats shaded by
groups Of fine trees at their full growth,
completed the pastoral charm OF the place.
catherine was alone in the garden. She
quietly seated herself under the trees and
watched in solitude the decline Of the sun
Ia a cloudless sky. The memory Of the
happy years of her marriage had never
been so sadly and persistently present to
her mind as at this time. Suddenly she
observed some one approaching her-a
woman.
In the dim light and at the distance be-
tween them recognition Of the woman was
impossible. Strained to the utmost point
OF tension, GATHERINGS nerves Quivered at
the sight Of that shadowy, silent figure.

few miles Of the market town OF Tx
bridge.
Within two days of the time when they
had left the hotel at Sydenham, Catherine
and her little family circle had taken pos
session of the cottage.
Lingering here and there to gather flow
ers from the beds as she passed them,
Kitty was stopped by a shrubbery, with a
rustic seat placed near it. which marked
the limits OF the garden on that side.
Choosing flowers and then rejecting
them, trying other colors and wondering
whether she had accomplished a change
for the better, Kitty was startled by the
sound of a voice calling TO her from the di-
reetion of the brook.
She looked round and saw a gentleman
crossing the bridge. He asked the way
to Brightwater Cottage.
There was something in his voice that
attracted her-how or why, at her age, she
never thought OF inquiring. Eager and
excited, she ran across the lawn which
lay between her and the brook before she
answered the question.
The gentleman approached her and sud
denly stood still. kitty said. ''This is the
cottage, sir; do you want to see mamma p
His sorrowful eyes rested kindly on her.
The child ventured to say: do you know
me, sir?"
He answered in the saddest voice that
Kitty had ever heard. My little girl, what
makes you think know youy
She was at loss how TO reply, fearing
to Distress him. She could only say, you
are SO like my poor papa"
