THE MURMUR OF THE WORLD.

receive her smiles and repay her with nameless fatteries which for a time bear for her the disguise of truth. Yet she was lovelier with the unlengthened raiment! A beautiful young maiden is superlativs- ly, bewilderingly attractive To look up- on her is lesson of life. She doesn't reason; she would be dull if she did; doesn't think, and Is therefore saved from stupidity. She Is the impersonation of sweet inconsistency, the promise of things mysterious. She perceives imperfeotly without knowing; hopes for things indef- initely; sings her little heart out In the sunshine as the birds do, and as careless of the morrow. She bouts and frets and loves, and now and then pays to sigh the tribute of tear which falls upon a smile fragrantly. She plays hide and seek with her flowers in the daisy carpet ed border-land of life. Suddenly her little feet turn into an opening in the green hedge with the white blossoms, and 10! she is amongst the roses of the maturer years. Music that is not the song of birds breaks upon her, and waves of emo tion surge through her soul and the flush of the peachblow mantles the fair young face as the woman Is led to the dancel There is pathos in the passing of the child. What there may be in the coming of the woman none shall say until the years have told their story unto the last syllable of the last chapter and the lamps are lighted In the even-time.
 The burden of years rests heavily upon the heart that loves not youth because it is youth; that bows not to beauty be- cause it is beauty He Is sinful who would rob either of an hour of joy. Ring the bells sound the music on with the riot ous dance! Throw flowers to the young. Heap the violets and the roses about them. and clasp them to thy soul as something precious beyond all the wit of man to surpass Love with them-laugh, shout, dance, grow mad in the intoxica- tion of innocent companionship. They will lift your burdens and cast them aside, holding you as cherished play fellow. these lovers of the young years. An old woman is beautiful when she loves beauty, an old man youthful when he loves youth. To wound the young, to grieve their hearts, is a sin for which there Is no power of pardon in the stat utes of humanity The love of the young weighs more in the balance of God than all the treasures ever mined from the deeps of the earth. E.. -s=tfs.
 Hail, beloved Dance and sing and be glad, and the world Is your own. l.ss-

month. The Painter mill is even larger. Both are located in Pittsburg. where police protection is abundant. Both have in the past been non-union mills. The Lindsay-McCutcheon mill is another of this lot All had been non-union mills, but in all three the Amalgamated Association had been able to organize lodges, and to close them.
 The steel trust shows its teeth in the case of the W. Dewees Wood plant at Mckeesport, town about twenty miles from Pittsburg. It has ordered the removal of the plant to point near Pittsburg. This order is intended to intimidate the merchants and others in the lesser mll towns. Removal to Pittsburg" is held up before them, and 1t must be confessed that it is by no means a weak card.
 This week will be one of developing events, and of great efforts on the part of the trust to start up mills through the introduction of non-union men. Such efforts will, it is to be hoped, be met by peaceful persuasion only. Force and bloodshed will not conquer in this struggle. Peaceful persuasion is the thing, and the indications are that the Amalgamated Association will adhere to 1t if the methods of the trust are fair and reasonable.

 each cup, Where'er my path lies, be 1t gloomy or

 that night; Shall join in your revels, your sports and
 your wiles, And return to me, beaming all o'er with
 your smiles Too blest if it tells me that mid the gay
 cheer, Some kind voice has murmured, 'I wish
 he were herel' Let Fate do her worst. there are relics of
 joy, Bright dreams of the past, which she cam
 not destroy; Which come in the night-time of sorrow
 and care. And bring back the features which joy
 used to wear. Long, long be my heart with such mem

 vase, if you will. But the scent of the roses will hang
 round it still. N

Your Health and Fools.

The discussion of two or three who were gathered together turned upon the ois- agreeableness, and frequent rudeness' or ill-mannered and thoughtless persons n commenting upon the personal appear ance or physical condition of others 10 their faces. You may have been SICK or suffered from an accident, or something untoward may have happened 10 you when some blundering lout comes along and says:
 You look mighty bad What is the matter with you?"
 You are worn-looking and nervous What can the matter be?"
 Such frank expressions as those no re- fined person ever forgets or forgiyes!
 Illustrative of this perfectly natural spirit of resentment against too-personal remarks as to one's appearance, Hon. w. P Pinckard told this story on the famous old Gen. Michael L. Bulger of Taliapoosa' whose death at 100 years of age occurred a few months ago:
 General Bulger had suffered from a protracted spell of fever. and being then a very old man the sickness sadly told upon his personal appearance. This was noticed by his admirers on his first Vlsit to Dadeville after his recovery, but only one of them dared say anything about 1t to the redoubtable general. This one was Uncle Bob Goodman. an old friend. MT. Goodman was driving in his buggy when he saw General Bulger. and at once he stopped and said:
 "'General, come and get in my buggy. I am sorry to see you looking so badly.
 "'You don't look so damned well your self, damn your was the old general B naughty response as he strode on."
 Another story-one of a thousand on General Bulger-is told by one of his grandsons
 General Bulger had sent some cotton to market, and had followed it himself to see that it was properly sampled.
 A cotton man. seeing the aged general trying to sample his own cotton, ap- preached him, with the remark:
 General, let me sample your cotton; l have had a great deal of experience"
 'Yos," responded the hostile general. and the more experience you have the damneder rascal you are!'
 These are very characteristic stories of the famous old veteran of three wars.

LEGISLATURE COMPLETES AND
PASSES THE C0NYEN-
TI0N BILL.
Abstract OfPrOvisiOns.

1t is all over now. That great con-
stitutional convention bill which for
weeks has engrossed the public at
tention at last has assumed a tangi-
BILE form, and now looms up before
the public in its entirety. 1t is a COM
paratively short measure, despite the
amount of talking which has been
done about it, and to a disinterested
person is most innocent-looking af-
fair.
The bill, as it now stands is the
original Flood measure, with a few
amendments which do not materially
change its structure.
1t provides for 100 delegates just as
the original bill did; it provides for
an election on the fourth Thursday
in May (the 23d) just as the original
bill did; it provides for the assem-
bling of the convention on the 18th
day of June just as the original bill
did, and, moreover, it provides the
machinery for counting the vote be-
tween the 23d of Mag and the 18th of
June.
After the delegates are nominated
the respective county and city cleo
ton boards meet and certify the vote
to the Secretary of the Commons

If CanvasSers meet and send to each
delegate chosen a certificate of cleo
ton.
The pay to the delegates to the
constitutional convention, as pre-
scribed by the Legislature, shall be
"a per day, and the members shall be
entitled to the same mileage and
privileges as members of the General
Assembly.

new draft must be published four
times in such newspapers as the Ex-
ecutive sees fit to select. That being
done the new Constitution comes up
for ratification or rejection by the
qualified voters" under the present
Constitution, either as a whole or in
separate articles or sections, as the
sees fit to submit it
The measure provides the election
machinery-that is to say, the So
called Australian ballot system-for
ascertaining the result OF the election |
upon the ratification OF the Constitu-
lion in its entirety or by it's different |
articles or sections.
But if the convention shall not
propose an amended constitution on

measures as it may deem proper for
