Ex-Governor Frank s. Black became governor of New York through his elo- quence. When he took the gave1 as temporary chairman of the republican n state convention of 1896. his name had not even been suggested for the nom ination. After his opening speech. however, the whisper went around among the delegates: What's the matter with Black for governor" The following day the regular. candidates were dropped and MT Black was nom mated, says writer in Success. After the convention Mir Black told some friends how he acquired his eloquence. When was a young man. he said, T went down from Troy. to New Eng land to make my fortune. I soon found that fortune was not running after me, and, when my funds ran low. I took the only job in sight. that of agent for sewing machine. I travelled through the country districts selling machines, and, in that way, built up whatever eloquence possess. You have no idea how hard it was to sell machine in the backwods in those days Some of the farmers thought they were inven- tions of the devil while others regard ed them as swindling devices. Holding a convention spellbound is einch conn pared to the difficulty I had in con vincing a farmer that a sewing ma chine is a good thing.

LlrTLE Rgp MoRocco SHOE.

The little red morocco shoe,
 A-gap where baby's toes peeped through Here tiny pigs to market went
 Tn the old days of sweet content. The buttons dangling by a thread Once touched by fingers, with the dead-~ Each struggling one it brings to ma A perfume from life s sacristy This tiny shoe without heel,
 Where little piggies used to steal. To me is more than priceless gem Plucked from a royal diadem
 It brings from amaranthine shore The face my loving eyes bent o'er: IT brings. dear heaven! from the night> Her Kiss, her voice, her smiles delight. An what may not mother list Whose ears are pended to the mist Inat rises out of shadow land
 Made glad by the angelic band? Their voices come on wings of air To greet her, patient, waiting there, Enrapt with this morocco shoe A-gap where baby's toes peeped through There comes no sweetness like the song Of loves Invisibies. who throng The sacred cloisters of the heart, Unknown to all the world apart. So, may list the whispers soft, Wait to me from the throne aloft- Ahi only heard by me, the while y mind recalls the baby's smile. --HorAes Seymour Keller. in N. Y. Sum.

there are many who take to the woods for an outing. The air is balny; the beautiful variegated foliage of the trees; the pleasure of poking among the leaves for ripened nuts, watching the lively squirrels and chipmunks playing about the trees: listen to the screeching and wf1istling of the birds returning home; enjoying the gorgeous sunset through the hay air; laden with nuts and richly co1ored leaves, arriv- ing at the house 1t is often cold and cheerless.

is built so that the lake is eighty-five fleet in 8 straight line from the lower end Of the platform. The diver starts on his bicycle from the upper end and by the time he has reached the edge of the lower part of the platform he has acquired q fearful momentum. The wheel falls to the ground, but the di- yer sails through the air until he lands in the lake.
 When this act took place the grand stand was crowded and many who saw the fall of the bicyclist believed that it was the last time they would see him alive. Last fall at the tIue of the carnival a great many people who watched the high diver fall after mak- ing the most careful calculation, held their breath, yet that was a very sim pie trick in comparison with the fall of a man from a bicycle going at full speed in midair.
 The cowboy events will be continued today. So also will the high diving. and the latter event will also be repeated on Sunday.

There were the usual num- Der of accidents attending events of this kind. and the interest Of the au- dience was kept wound up to the high est pitch throughout the performance.

It is also seldom that the sports have gone off so well, or that so great skill has been shown. For the steer tying there were twelve entries. The steers were of a good class calculated to test
