a head tax of 81 on all aliens coming

passenger should be landed from ship

"Swarred fer @ Livin'."

Here is a favorite anecdote which
Abraham Lincoln was in the habit of
relating: James Quarles, distin-
guished lawyer Of Tennessee, was one
day trying case and, after producing
his evidence rested, whereupon the de-
Tense produced a witness who swore
Quarles completely out of court and
a verdict was rendered accordingly.
After the trial one of his friends came
to him and said:
why didn't you get that Teller to
swar on your side?"
Il didn't know anything about him"
replied Quarles.

said the friend, ''for he would swar

Saved by Her Dog.

Mrs. William JONES' who made her
escape from the dwelling house fire on
Boston hill in Fairhaven, Mass, early
the other morning, owes her life to her
coach dog. But for him Mrs Jones
would never have been able to leave
the building. The canine, aroused by
the smoke, it is supposed, began bark
ing, and not getting response from
his mistress, he went to her sleeping
apartment, where she lay on the bed
fast asleep. The intelligent animal
stood up on his hind legs and licked
Mrs Jones' face and partially reused
her, but only sufficiently to cause her
to push him down. But the dog was
not discouraged. Again he made a
attempt to awaken her, and this time
he used his paws. He succeeded, and
Mrs. Jones, being thoroughly aroused,
took in the situation and made good
her escape-New Bedford (Mass) Ev-

A WOrnan's Way.

Life constantly turns up facts which
are beyond all fiction. A few days ago
a case Of restitution enlisted the atten-
ton of the police. The husband had
stolen in order that his wife and child
might have food. Sympathy was
quickly enlisted and work was offered
20 the man.
But the poloce discovered a little too
much. The man, who had first seemed
to be a hero, was a bigamist and a
thief with a record. His claim that he
could find no employment was false.
He is now behind prison bars.
Still there was heroism in the Incl
dent. The second wife, whom he had
deceived, was an honest and honorable
woman. She refused to appease her
hunger from the profits of any crime,
however desperate the circumstances
were. Her principle stood out in the
face of the severest temptation and she
still believed in her husband.
Heroism is fine, but it seems a bit
finer when it is shown in an humble
instance and when the one who shows

Something Up Growers Sleeve,


Says Mr. Cleveland to Mr.. EckelS on
the subject of the speech scheduled for

word of politics will cross my lips, and
that my so-called address will be sim

Nothing is more likely, however,
than that, emphasize it as he may on
it's social side, Mr.. Cleveland will not
be able to convince the public that his
speech will have no political bearing.

ton, held office under Mr. Cleveland
from 1898 to 1897, and favors his for
