A Trout twenty seven Years Old.

Recently at Cory, PENN" said a
Chicago travelling man, 81 made the
acquaintance of lake trout that was
in It's twenty-seventh year.
cit was born in Lake Erie in 1876,
and was in the spring of that year
transplanted to the waters of the
state fish hatchery at Cory where it
grew and thrived, and in prime had a
weight of sixteen pounds.
1T has shrunk in it's old age,
though, and Superintendent Butler OF
the hatchery told me it had all it
could do now to pull the scales down
to the ten. pound notch.
Notwithstanding that it is now as
blind as bat and hard of hearing. it
seems hale and hearty, and takes its
three meals a day with the regularity
and gusto of q hired man.
There is snotter lake trout in the
same inclOsure that is two years
younger than this veteran, but it
shows its age more. These trout
would not have been any older if they
had been LETT in Lake Erie of course,
but they would have weighed more.
Superintendent Butler said There
may be older lake trout than these
somewhere, but they are nowhere in
evidence chicago Inter Ocean.

Cambridge lastspring and spent some
time at the Randall before resuming
his duties. He was well liked here
and his untimely demise is much re-

Stepped Against a Hot Stove.

A child of Mrs. George t. Benson,
when getting his usual Saturday
night bath, stepped back against q
hot stove which burned him severely.
The child was in great agony and his
mother could do nothing to pacify
him. Remembering that she had q
bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm in
the house, she thought she would try
it. In less than half an hour after p
plying it the child was quiet and
asleep, and in less than two weeks
was well. Mrs. Benson is a we'll
known resident of Kellar, Va. Pain
Balm is an antiseptic liniment, and
especially valuable for burns, cuts,
bruises and sprains.

Rapid Letter Opener.

Emery Powers, of st. Johnsbury,
whose inventive genius has appeared
in several useful devices of various
kinds, has invented a little machine
that promises to be of considerable
value commercially if it is put on the
market. The invention is known as
"Rapid Letter Opener" which sug-
gests it's use. 1t is a simple affair,
the cutter being a steel disc under
which the letters are carried by a
milled wheel. 1t will open letters of
any size and shape, and it's capacity
per minute is limited only by the
ability of the operator to handle the
letters. 1t is patented, the patent be-
ing owned jointly by Mr. Powers and
l.. M. Fullington, who conceived the
idea that Mr.. Powers carried out.
The machines are fitted either for
foot or electric power. One has been
in use at the store of Jordon, Marsh
& Co., in Boston, for several weeks,
and has proved very satisfactory.

Eius and ThlstIes.

The genius of the church depends on
it's genesis.
Foes without are less to be feared
than faults within.
Men are valued by Others in about
the inverse ratio of their own valua-
ton.
To take the fuel of lust into the
heart is to invite its fires to consume
the life.
The star of faith will shine long af-
ter the comet of fame has disappeared.
Happiness depends not on the
things the heart has but on the heart
that has the things.
The first thing some people do when
troubles fly into their lives is to clip
their wings.
Almost every fool thinks that he is
bright enough to throw dust in the
eyes OF the Divine.

The Domain OF Despair.

There are various kinds and degrees
of deserts in this country, but the
most utterly hopeless are found in
the so-called Great Basin, between
the Rockies and the Sierras. This is
vast region of deserts, with here
and there an area where nature in
prankish mood seems actually to
have made an Effort to produce spec.
tacular effects of horror. From the
Wasatch Mountains to the Sierra
Nevada extends a CHASTITY stretch of
territory, which is intersecred by a
series of high mountain ranges, run
ming parallel north and south, with
valleys between.
A bird's-eye view of the landscape
shows three principal ranges, two of
which are known as the AmargOsa
and Panamint, and between these is
Death Valley, sO-called because it is
the very abode of death.
Imagine a narrow strip of arid
plain, shut in between two mighty
mountain walls, the peaks stretching
up 10000 feet into burning sky.
The surface of this plain, which is
IT'S feet below the sea Level, is a mere
crust of salt and alkali, through
which a ridden horse breaks up to
his knees into a horrid paste that
eats both hair and hide.
A gray haze that never lifts makes
everything indistinct and puzzling to
the view. No vegetation is to be seen
save very scanty sagebrush, with
leaves that are not green but gray,
and here and there a sort of cactus
that grows to five or six feet in
height, with extended branches. 1t
is called the dead man." because in
the night each stalk looks like a
corpse by the wayside.
But the supreme horror of the place
is the heat, which is unspeakable.
There is breeze, but it is SO scorch-
ing hot as to blister your face.
Streams flow from springs down
toward the valley, butnever reach it,
because the heat dries them up on the
way.-Sat urday Evening Post

can party has been in control of the
lower branch of Congress the East
has had four Speakers, William Pen
nington of New Jersey, Galusha A.
Grow of Pennsylvania, James 6.
Blaine and Thomas B. Reed, both oil
Maine. Blaine and Reed both served
as Speaker for three terms and Pen

the east has had the Speakership
under Republican rule. The west
has had three Republican Speakers,
Schuyler Colfax of Indiana, Joseph
W. Keller of Ohio and David B. Hen.

three terms, Henderson for two and
Keller for one, making a total OF
twelve years that the west has had

Speaker over four Congresses. Henry
Clay, Schuyler Colfax, James 6.

George W. Morrow, of the Anti-Saloon
league, is taking a hand in the matter Of IL
cense at Montpelier these days, and cOnse-
quently he is being Jumped on" by the adyo-
Gates of license, as well as by newspapers OF
like feeling. Bless you, hasn't he right to
do so? He is hired by the anti-saloon folks
to do their work, just as Alex Dunnett was
hired by Cltment to appear before the COM
mittee on elections at the opening of the leg
slature. Dunnett wasn't ridiculed neither
should Morrow be, even if his heart is in his
work. which we think is more than can be
said of Dunnett when he appeared in the in
terest of Clement.
This from the News AND CITIZEN
contains considerable good sense. 1t
has been quite fad to criticise Mr..
Morrow, often uniustly. Men too
timid to give expression to their own
convictions have ridiculed a man who
is not. The cause of temperance
needs good men at Montpelier just
now. Mr.. Morrow is not the only
efficient worker in the cause, but he
is one of them and as longas he holds
the official position he does he would
certainly be neglecting his duty did
he not keep a watchful eye on all pro-
posed temperance legislation Bel

May Break Solid South.

Politicians in Texas and Louisiana
have begun to figure on the influence
the homeseekers' movemnt from the
Northern states is destined to exert
on political affairs of these two states
In the last five years many large and
prosperous colonies of emigrants
from Illionois, Iowa, Ohio and other
Republican states of the North have
sprung up in the rice and sugar belts
of Louisiana and Texas, and already
the vote of these new citizens is suffici-
emily large to carry weight.
The railroads leading into Louisi-
ana and Texas are now spending
large sums of money in turning
homeseekers into these states, and
the fact that nearly 1000, 600 acres
of land in the rice belt have been pur-
chased sirce January 1 by farmers
and investors of the north central
states alone is evidence of the heavy
southwark movement, for these lands
reall being cOloDzed from the North.
There is already strong Republi-
can party in Louisiana, and this add
ed assistance may, in few years,
prove sufficient to turn the tide and
send Republican congressman to
Washington from the low lands of
this state.
All the sugar planters are Republi-
can in national politics, and all the
rice planters, with the exception of
the native element, now fast broom
ing minority, have come South
within the last few years, and it is
easy to see the political tendency in
Louisiana.
Over in Texas the same conditions
prevail. There is no danger of either
state being controlled by Northern
settlers, but it seems certain that
some of the seats in Congress now
controlled by the Democrats will
eventually be controlled by the Re
publicans, because the homeseekers'
movement, which every dav is be-
coming heavier.-ChicagO Tribune.
