VANCO UVER BARRACKS,
Wash, Feb. 17.-"Personal mis-
treatment of officers under his COM

nor was General Maus, department
commander, in any measure influ-
enced by that incident.

STOCKS DULL, BUT STRONG.
NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE main
features of today's market were
dullness and strength, activity be-
ing centered in various specialties,
such as American Cotton Oil and
the Great Western issues. The
buying of the latter was particular
ly good, but for the most part
based on reports to the effect that
the physical conditions of the
property were being rapidly i'm
proved and operations thereby be-
ing greatly reduced In cost.
The fact that urgent liquidation
has caused marked investment
demand for stocks has led a great
many to believe that the tendency
will be upward for some time.

THE FINAL POSE

La the early days of travelling By stage'
coach across the Rocky mountains tht
trip was likely to be relieved Of monotony
by incidents Of no ordinary occurrence
But the fatigue Of the journey was apt to
wear upon the nerves Of the weak and
the timid. Sometimes the passengers
became so worn out as to lead to sus-
picion Of their sanity. The Right Rev.
D. S. Tuttle in bis "Reminiscences Of q
Missionary Bishop" describes aninstsnce
in point.
ne-iorenoon the coach rolled into Dem
yer, and the six horses came prancing up
to the Office of Wells, Fargo & Co. A
large crowd was assembled, as the incom.
ing and the outgoing Of the daily coaches
we're the great events for the town.
At the stop the only passenger quickly
threw open the coach door, leaped to the
ground, ran hurriedly across the street
aud, turning handspring, stood on his
head with his heels up against O support
ing wall.
Several men followed him, quite anre
that here was another passenger cFazed
by the long, sleepless ride. One said TO
him in tone of sympathy, why, cap'n,
what's the matter2'
Slowly coming to right side up pos
ture, the man answered: "Well. my
friend. I'll tell you what It is. This
standing on my head is the only posi-
ton which l haven't been in during
the last twsnty.four hours in yonder
coach, and wanted 10 make the thing
harmonious and complete all round"

crops soon to be harvested. Farmers o
to-day are the most prosperous of any Gel
of business men. While they slumbel
at night profitable crops are springine
forth from the fertile fields. Little d.
they know of the burdens and yexationl
of the country town business men. On the
other hand they peep through the kitchen
window on rainy days, see the corn and
wheat waving, watch the pigs in the pen
wonder how many eggs are in the barn
to be gathered and SO on. They have nc
debts to meet in the city for this and that
they simply wait until harvest time
to gather in the gold. Young man, il
you are farmers son, stick to the old
farm. Don't go to the crowded cities.

VICTIMS OF A DEMON
ELLA WHEELER WILCOX

ELLA WHEELER WILCOX
In the silent midnight watches,
When the earth was wrapped in gloom
And the grim and awful darkness
Crept unbidden to my room,
On the solemn, deathly stiffness
OF the night there broke sound
Like ten million wailing voices
Crying loudly from the ground:
We, the victims Of demon.
We who, one and each and all,
Can cry out before high heaven
sWe are slain by Alcohol ~
We would warn you, youths and maidens
From the path that We have trod-
From the path that leads to ruin,
And away from Peace and God.
We, the millions who have fallen,
Warn you from the ruddy glow
OF the wine in silver goblets,
For destruction lies below.
Wine and gin and rum and brandy,
Whisky, cider, ale, and beer,
These have slain Us and destroyed US
These the foes that brought us here.
n n II
We beseech you, men and women
Fathers, mothers, husbands, wives
To arise and slay the demon
That ia threatening dear ones lives.
Do not preach of moderation
To your children, for, alas
There is not foe more subtle
That the fateful social glass.
Mem in Office, men in power,
Will you let this demon wild
Stalk unfettered through the nation,
Staying woman, man, and child?
Oh, arouse, ye listless mortals
There is work for every one
We have warned you of your danger
We have spoken--We have done
