CHAPTER TX.
THE KING AMUsEs HIMSELF.

With savage energy the Great Com
moner pressed to trial the first i'm
peachment Of a president Of the United
States for high crimes and misdemean-
ors.
His bill to confiscate the property
OF the southern people was already
pending on the calendar Of the house.
This bill was the most remarkable
ever written in the English language
or introduced into a legislative body
Of the Aryan race. 1t provided for the
confiscation Of ninety per cent of the
land of ten great states Of the Amer
lean Union. To each negro in the south
was allotted forty acres from the es-
tate Of his former master, and the re-
naming millions Of acres were to be
divided among the loyal who had suf-
fered by reason Of the Rebellion"
The execution Of this, the most stu
pendous crime ever conceived by an
English law-maker. involving the ex-
lie and ruin of millions Of innocent
men. women, and children, could not be
intrusted to Andrew Johnson.
No such measure could be enforced
so long as any man was president and
COMMUNICATIVE chief of the army and
Navy who claimed his title under the
constitution. Hence the absolute ne
cessity of his removal.
The conditions of society were ripe
for this daring enterprise.
Not only was the ship Of state In the
hands Of revolutionists who had board
ed her in the storm stress Of civic
convulsion. but among them swarmed
the pirate captains of the bo!dest Grim
inals who ever figured in the story OF
| a nation.

| - ,Nalr I.nA AGraT

A Wonderful Automaton.

In the year 1870 the most wonderful
automaton that has ever been con-
structed was exhibited at Exeter ex-
change, London. This automatic won
der represented a country gentleman's
house, and was Of such intricate and
elaborate construction that no one dis
puted the claim Of the exhibitor when
he declared that he had worked twen-
ty-seven years in perfecting 1t. 1t
showed the regulation English coun-
try house, with parks, gardens, cas-
cades, temples, bridges, etc., besides
over 100 appropriately clad human
figures in the gardens, on the bridges,
chopping wood and at various build
ing operations. In the park were sew
eral deer moving naturally about and
four horses and a coach following the
meandering road Besides the above
the figures Of boys were seen fishing
from the bridges, while boat load
Of ladies and gentlemen regularly
rowed across an enhancement In the
brook, much to the consternation of
the natural looking figures of geese
and ducks which were padding about
in the water The whole OF these an
innate and inanimate figures were In

half feet square.-Exchange. Il.

his own; he can make 1t as bloody as
any recorded in history, or he can re-
serve the privilege Of acting on the I'M
pulse Of his private passions In eacn
case that arises.
Here Is a bill of attainder agalnst
nine millions Of people at once. 1t Is
based upon an accusation so vague as
to be scarcely Ineligible, and found to
be true upon no credible evidence. NOT
one Of the nine millions was heard IN
his own defence. The representatives
even of the doomed parties were exclu-
ded from all participation in the trial
The conviction is to be followed by the
most ignominious punishment ever In
fiicted on large masses Of men. 1t dis
franchises them by hundreds Of thou
sands and degrades them all-even
those who are admitted to be guiltless-
from the rank of freemen to the condi-
ton Of slaves.
"Such power has not been welded by
any monarch in England for more than
five hundred years, and In all that time
no people who speak the English ton
que have borne such servitude."
When the last jeering cat-call which
greeted this message Of the Chief Mag
istrate had died away on the floor and
in the galleries, old Stoneman rose,
with a smile playing about his grim
mouth, and introduced his bill to Inn
peach the president Of the United
States and remove him from office.

HANNA AND THE PIcKPocKET.
Ohio Statesman Was Convinced That
Piekpockets Really Exist.

Ohio Statesman Was Convinced That
Piokpoekets Really Exist.
The late Edwin Cowles, editor Of
the Cleveland Leader, numbered
| among his plishments that Of
pocket picking. or course he picked
| pockets as an amateur only, but 1t Is
doubtful whether there ever was a
professional who could play the light
fingered game more skillfully than the
able editor did occasionally for fun.
It was during the administration Of
| a mayor who had been elected as a
| protege Of M. A. Hanna, who was then
starting I'm Cleveland upon the polit-
| ical career which gave him national
prominence, that the Leader began
crusade against vice. Articles were
published daily in which 1t was as
serted that the city was full Of thieves,
| gamblers and other crooks. and the
mayor was taken severely to task for
not having them driven away. Han
ma. being the power behind the mu-
nicipal throne, came in for censure,
in an indirect way. and meeting
Cowles in the street one day he ex-
postulated with him concerning the
Leaders style Of warfare.
Look here, Cowles." he said,
| whats the use OF all this racket?
| You're making a mountain out of
molehill. There are no more crooks
| in town than there have been right
along. and 1t would be foolish to ex-
pect any mayor to drive all the law
breakers out, no matter how hard he
tried or how good his intentions might
| be-"
Cowles insisted that his paper was
right, and he expressed the belief that
there were then more pickpockets In
Cleveland than had ever infested the
city before.
"Pickpockets!" snorted Hanna, I
don't believe there's a pickpocket In
the town. And anyway. I have no
sympathy for anybody whose pockets
are picked. No one but a jay could
ever be robbed in that way"
You don't know" said Cowles,
"how skillfM some Of these light-fin-
gered fellows become. 1t would be
possible for one Of them to go through
your pockets while talking to you as
| / am now"
Hanna laughed derisively and said
| any pickpocket that ever got hand
| into his clothes without being caught
at II was welcome to anything he could
extract.
AS they were parting. Cowles turn
ed to ask what time 1t was, and Hanna
felt for his watch.
1t was gone.
| That's strange" he said. II guess
I must have forgotten when l dressed
| this morning to put 1t in my pocket
| Speaking of forgetting things
| Cowles answered, II forgot my wallet
when l left home. Could you lend me
$1O?"
Hanna felt for his money, but found
none He put his hand into one emp
ty pocket after another and was be-
ginning to look sheepish when Cowles
handed him back his watch. his mon
ey, his keys and bundle Of letters.
VERY well, Cowles," said the future
senator, "I'll see what can be done
about driving the pickpockets away"

phere more freezing than Siberian

pipes from becoming choked.
When not engaged on these hercu-
lean tolls they roam around the barb
ed wire fencing to see that it Is In
good order, they examine the posters
that give warning to trespassers; they
exercise police vigilance In driving OH
intruders; for campers, greasers,
hunters and fishermen are allowed no
quarter on the citys property. All the
labor and life's blood Of these men
costs the city Of Asheville only about
10 per cent Of what 1t used to cost to
pump by machinery the dirty mud OF
the Swannanoa, that a few years ago
furnished drinking water to the popu-
lation.

ties are unable to account for the

ing eggs have Matched there. A year
ago, in a big fire on Main street per-
sons were astonished to find trout
three and four inches long, that had
dropped from the nozzle Of the hose
upon the street. Such opportunities
as these afford the inhabitants the only
opportunity of tasting the great deli
cacy Of speckled trout from our noun

bought in this market that come from

and Labrador, a speckled mountain

A scene in the midst of the city
Brought peace to my heart one day:
A man, rough man of the people,
Was walking a city way;
And fast to his hand held a tOddler,
With hair that was angel gold
And oh, the gentle cOnfding
That clung in that dimpled hold!
And walking they came to a danger,
A steep that was tiny and sheer.
The wee clinging fingers frightened
And the blue eyes widened with fear;
But roughly the man reaSSured her
In words she could understand:

Envy, Hatred, Malice and all un-

but Love, Sympathy, Consideration and

When the world acts coldly toward
a man or woman, it is dollars to crullers

When the world was young, its heart
was stony. The Stone Age knew neither
pity nor love. The cave-dwellers woOed
their wives with clubs and blows, and
the women judged a suitor by his
prowess. With progress came the reali-
zation of woman's weakness, and her
abusers were restrained. How to har-
ness mans strength also came to be
calculated. Blows ceased to appeal to
woman, whereupon came swiftly kinder
methods of courtship and conjugal au-
