On the Ulil of the Saint, In olden time.
In the terrible, froien. aorthern clime
Where the Vlkhurt reijrned, waa a giant Muni,
Who Itari hit residence endargrround.
The rnoti St. Lawrence from Saxony came
To apeak a word In bit master's same. .
On every hill did hit pulpit ataad.
For there were no then-he in all th land.
Said tbe Giant ! ' " Tis surely a doubtful .a
That to irreat a (rod hat no worth y Ihrlne,
Aa.l I myself will a temple make
Tbe mightiest thunderbolt cannot ahakc.
1 in oae condition." And then a pause
For the Oiant mott tiuly a saving clause.
Thlt trifling reward I may surely elaim.
That when it It finished you tell my same. '
"If not" and the Giant looted irrini aaJ stern
Tour forfeit than be tboae torchet that earn
In yonder heaven. I've watched them thine.
And Sooner or tatter they tauxi la mine f' '
".Had Pagan !" SU Lawrence exclaimed. "In
. . 1 vain
Do yon hope the tun and the moon to gain.
Where God hat plated them their light slut 11
stand, .
To bleat tlie dweller in every land,'
"Well,1 laughed the Ulant, " 'tit rather bad.
That what I covet cannot be had.
Hut, if your God my request denies,
Give me, Instead, then, your own two eyes."
..That will 1 do '." said the man of God.
' For the love of Christ may be spread abroad
And the tinner won to a height of grace.
Though a blind man be in the preacher's place,
The site was choeen, the Compact made,
The comer-Monet In their placet laid.
And rapidly by tbe Giants power.
The mighty temple arose each hour.
'Be strong bthiga! Oye walls r criel he.
' My nam to tilts muok iti.lt a aecret he, .
And uelore the mooa In her lull net ria
My daughter shall play with hi starry eye.
He tits oa tbe mot, and he taught and be singt.
Its yet the tower gigantic spring.
"My mk," says the Giant, "is almoet done.
And I shall be paid by the act of the sun."
On the lllll of the Saint, with a aaddeoed gate.
SC Lawrence stand, and with calmness tayaj
"OLord! these eyet thou hast given to me
I joyfully sacrifice unto thee."
Thea rose a voice aa the thunder's roar
Tbe like had never been heard before ;
And tt shook the earth wilh a mighty three.
Surging an J f welling from far below.
"Slo-p sweetly. Solve, my little ton,"
It f .ul tor the temple it almost done ;
An 1 your father Etna will be tare to make
A pretty bargain lor your tweet take.
And dear little QerJa, my daughter fair,

Ezra Elden was ia love with Clars
bcodder; aod ooie times in tbe mo
ments of great exaltation (or be was
a modest youth, as every true lover
should be be bad dared to think that
she did not frown upon bis passion.
But Clara was tbe squire's daughter
and an heiress; while Ezra was but
a small farmer, and sc far from suc
cessful iu that pursuit, tbat it seemed
absurd as well as impossible, tbat be
should aopire to tbe band of tbe love
ly Miss Scudder, who had been court
ed in vain even by fine city gentle
men. So be bad sighed and cast
longing looks from bis place in tbe
choir (wbere be sang io a fine tenor
voice on Sundays) into tbe squire's
pew; and more than once be thought
pretty Clara blushed brightly and be
knew well enough tbat she always
smiled sweetly; and ber voice, when
she spoke to bim, had a caressing
sound; and altogether ber manner to
ward bim was not discouraging.
But Ezra would not be encouraged.
He felt tbat it was useless for bim to
as-k the squire for bis daughter's
band uoless be bad a good pot of
money ia tis owa band with wbicb
to back bis proposal. So, instead of
rying to compass tbe desired end by
increased industry be neglected bis
little farm more iban before, and spent
bis w bole time ia wishing tbst be
could find a pot of money somehow,
in the manner of tbe old fashioned
stories at tbe foot of a tree; under
the foundation of bis bouse. I believe
be would even bave sought for it at
the end of tbe rainbow, like tbe boy
in the nursery rhyme, if be bad been
told there was a good chance ot find
ing it there.
Suddenly a rumor fpread abroad
that a wonderful gipsy bad appeared,
who was telling people fortunes that
came true in the most remarkable
manner, and 6.11 the country side was
ia a state of excitement oa tbe sub-
Meet. Sbe was of somewhat exclusive
character, this madam ipsy, ana
could only be consulted ia a certain
place, io the shadow of a wych-elm,
in tbe open air, and during certain
hours these hours being between
it e last rays of tbe declining sua, and
ibe first shadows of tbe coming night.
Of course tbe rumor of the gipsy's
marvelous fortune telling reached
Ezra. Elder,, and eqaaliy of course,
be was much exercised in mind con
cerning i'. lie louna out tbe place
wbere tbe fortaae teller divined these
fair fortunes; and one evening, after
watcliog tbe sua slowly disappear
behind tbe western bills, be repaired.
tbiiber, s ealibily and a (ittle afraid
uf meeticg t.ara tkadder somewhere
a tbe vicinity, fur tbe wyca-eim was
just op tbe further side of squire's
farm. However, Le met do one; ex
cept a berried eqoinel fast speeding
to its home, and it was even more
scared at being met than Ezra was,
so be hastened to tbe wych-elm, and
there, tore enough, was madam gipsy,
siiliog curled up against the trauk,
and locking precisely aa if sbe was
waning fur him. ft be was a very
old woman, bent almost double; ber
lined and wrinkled face waa tbe color
of butternut, and tbe tangles of ' ber

;but ber black eyes bad wonderful
brilliancy and such a keeo look that
they seemed to sea right tbrougb,
him. She waa wrapped ia a tattered
old scarlet cloak, and a hood of the
same was drawn well over ber bead.
She gave a quick nod to Ezra, and
motioned him to take a seat at ber

she said: t
"I was expecting yoo my son, and I
know what you come for;" and then
sbe held outa band even more butter
nut than bctface a shaking and t emu
lous band; and Ezra made haste to
cross the palm with silver, that being,
as be knewjlbe time honored custom.
This happened before we bad begun
the return to. specie basis; and silver
was scarce, hut Ezra had in his pock
et a half dollar piece with a bole ia
it. and a cross drawn on iu face.
wbicb he ba4 kept many years for
luck. So, aa there could be no more
auspicious occasion than tbe present
lor using it, be timidly placed it a
tbe gipsy's band, and again bent Lis
ear attentive! to liMen to ber unin
telligible mumbling.
1 know the desire of your heart,
my pretty gorlleman, said tbe gipsy.
It is a certain maiden not a hondred
miles away, only you have the faint
heart tbat seldom wins a fair lady.
But if you ctiuld find a pot of money,
your spirit would be bolder. Listen
to me, and obey me, and you shall
bave your wish." .
Ezra did listen, with all his ears,
and as you ntey suppose, they were
just then pretty long and wide, aod
capable of taking in a large amount.
lou must dig up every foot of
land you posset," proceeded tbe
gipsy; "you musn t grow weary in
your searcb-a-you must dig and dig,
continuously and plant and harvest.
and dig again, if necessary; and, mark
my words, before a verv long time,
you will find tbe pot of money, and
tbe maiden will be yours."
Kzra listened with faith, and de
parted with joy in his heart. He ful
filled the fortune teller's i junctions
so well, tbat all tbe country side took
to talking of him after tbe gipsy dis
appeared. He not only dug, but be
ploughed and sowed and harrowed ;

'Wby, Clara, isn't that Ezra El-

daughter one day drove him past it,
u her pretty ponj carriage. '
"l es sir," returned Clara, with a
faint pink stealing into ber clear, pale
beek.
'Has some one else farmed it
then?" abked the stiuire. "There
isn't another farm around here lit to
compare with it."
Tbe pink in C lara s cbeek deepened
to a lovely crimson.
"O, no, papa," sbe said soltly, "it
seems Ezra Mr. Elden, bas just de
veloped a sudden talent for farming,
And a very first rate talent, I
should say," said the old gentleman.
A man who can show such a farm
as tbat, can bold bis bead as bigb as
any one,"
Clara's eves glowed and sparkled.
She touched her ponies lightly; and
ber bappy thought rnsbed off into tbe
future at a pace to rival even their

As the neighbors bad foretold,

ng having also developed bis com
mercial ability, be sold all be bad to

" ell, said Ezra, as be counted
is gains, and tied them securely in
is money bag, "I haven't found my
pot of money, but this little pile is
not to be despised, and I shall keep
on. By George! I wonder if this is
what tbe old gipsy meant."
Ezra bad some time on bis bands
now for dreaming; and he took to
sighing for Clarra once more, but ia
a much mire hopeful spirit.
"I will speak to her father," be
thought; and if be gives me encour
agement I will ask Clara, plump, if
sbe will marry me."
Now some young men would, bave
thought it safer to win tbe daughter's
consent first; bat Ezra was too honor
able for that
'ljf the squire won't have me," he
said to himself, "it's no nse to ask
Claca. She would never disobey
ber father. I shouldn't care half as
much for her if she would."
So he took bis money bag in his
band and sought the presence of squire
Scudder.
Tbe tquire sat reading a volume ot
tbe Fickvt ick papery in bis b&ndsome
old fashioned parlor; and being in a
very genial mood, be received Ezra
with tbe moat encouraging kindaese,
and listened to all be bad to say wi'h
a benignant smile.
' It is not a great deal," concluded
Ezra, holding np bis' money bag,
"lilt there's plenty more where 1
found this sir."
"And pray where did you find it,
Mr. Alden?" asked tbe squire, rather
taken back
"At tbe roots of my wheat and
barley," answered Ezra; adding, with
a laugh, "To tell the troth, sir, I con
sulted a fortune teller, and she told
me to dig and dig, and. would, cer
tainly find a pot of money. I haven't
found, it yet, but I intend to keep on
digging, and I don't doubt but I s'.all
find it by and by."
Squire Scudder burst into a hearty
lacgb; and kindly patted Ezra on tbe
shoulder.
"I don't doubt bat you will my
lad," he said, cheerily. "Honest in
dustry ia the best pot of money any
young man ever found. As for
Clara, you can talk over that matter
with herself she's sitting there by

tbe Squire, not to have given Ezra a
bint of Clara's presence before; but
be didn't mean it. It seems quite
impossible for these old gentlemen to
realize bow serious auch matterr are
to boys and girls.
Squire Scudder rose with a nod
and a smile, and went away, leaving
Kz
a in d;re confusion starmg at tbe.
window curtains; and wishing tbe
floor would open and swallow bim.
Hut it didn't. Instead tbe window
curtains opened and a lovely young
lady stepped out from them.
"So, Mr. Elden," she said, coming
forward, "iou consulted tbe fortune
teller, too?"
"0, Miss Scudder, Clara, you bave
bea;d everything," stammered Ezra
sinking into tbe chair, from wbicb be
bad risen in bis first consternatiou.J
"What a terrible fool you must think
me!"
"But I don't I bave great confi

"Then you consulted her, too,"
asked Ezra.
"Dozens of times sbe beguiled me

'Well, she got but a single piece

Ezra, recovering somewhat, and ven
turing to laugh slightly.
"Was it anything like this?" asked
Miss Scudder, producing one from ber
pocket and holding it toward Ezra on
tbe palm of ber band like cream.
Ezra looked and started and gave
a little cry. It wa9 his own lucky

GENERAL'S INSTRUCTIONS TO THE
L. S. MARSHALS "HOW ABOUT SUP
PaKSSI.NU THI ADMITTED 'LAWLESS

THE SOLDIERS' AND SAILORS VOTES:
It is generally known- t'-at at - tbe
opening of the Centennial Exposition
at Philadelphia there was quite a spir
ited controversy ia and outside of the
Commissions, as to whether the exhi
bition should be accessible to tbe pub
lic on Sundays. It was finally de
termined that the gates should be
closed on tbat day of tbe week. It
is not clear tbat this action ia in ac
cordance with the wishes of the ma
jority of tbe people of tbe country.
Many, if not a majority, bold tbat to
visit tbe display of tbe works of na
ture and art, leading men's thoughts
up from both to tbe Great Author
aud Artificer, is a means of religious
instructions compared with wbicb
pulpit preaching is insignificant. Dut
such has not been tbe view of tbe
Centennial Commission. Hence tbe
gates have been shut to tbe outside
world on the first day of tbe week.
In contradistinction to tbis decision
of tbe-authorities having charge of
tbe Centennial Exhibition, tbe Ser
geant at-arma of tbe Senate and
House, and the Architect of tbe Cap
itol, have directed tbat the Capitol
Building be kept open on Sundays,
Irom v a. m. to 4 p. ni. to Centennial
visitors only. It is also contended tbat
other places of interest to visitors
should be accessible on tbat day, to
the same class of people. If the for
mer action be right there would seem
to bo no good reason why tbe latter
suggestion should not be adopted, and
a uae argument wouia leau ns to a
decision tbat it would be proper for
tbem to reverse their resolve, and to
open tbe gates of tbe International
Exhibition on Sundays, so tbat tbe
masses, who compose the industrial
class of tbe community and who la
bor six days of tbe week, may have
ibe opportunity of being instructed
on the seventh. Tbe issuance by At
torney General Taft of bis letter of
instructions to tbe United States
Marshals is the signal for a fresh out
burst of indignation on tbe part of
tbe Democracy. They call it anoth
er Republican outrage on tbe people
of the South, and denounce it as sim
ply another election serving dodge by
wbicb it is hoped to carry a few of
the doubtful Southern States for
Hayes and Wheeler. Among those
fully aware of tbe true condition ot
affairs in tbe South there ia no hesi
tation in saying tbat without tbe
support of tbe United States troops
there is not a marshal in any part of
tbe South who would be able to car
ry out tbe Attorney General's in
structions It is not necessary to go
very for South to reach a district
where to be known as a Republican
is to be a man spotted and despised
by all of an opposite faith. At a re
cent meeting in Alexandria, Ya., un

cruel master in tbe State, and tbe
murderer of Colonel Cameron, is nom
inated for (iovernor, depending upon
tbe intimidaiioo. of Butler and other
White line leaders to destroy a Ke
pnblican majority of thousands ?
When even from Southern pulpits
tbey are told tbat "tbe South will yet
have slavery back, and tbat at no
distant day?" When Southern states
men assert that "tbe man woo accepts
negro suffrage should be accursed ?"
Truthfully did Horace Greelej write:
"Necessity may for a time constrain
the Democracy to silence ; tbe pur
pose of disfranchising the blacks may
be disclaimed ; but give that party
power, aod it will cheat tbe public
creditors, and remand tbe blacks to
serfdom." Who then will suppress
tbe lawless element ?
Four years ago a very largely at
tended convention of soldiers and sai
lors convened at I'ittslargb, Pa., for
the purpose of expressing their sen
timents in relation to their pending
canvass tor tbe Presidency. Having
emerged from a bloody contest io de
fense of tbe stars and stripes, tbe
emblem ot Liberty and Unity, it was
meet tbat tbey should place on rec
ord a declaration of their continued
devotion to the cause for wbicb tbey
fought. This they did in terms not
to be misunderstood. They pro
claimed to the world tbat, recogniz
ing in tbe Republican platform tbe
enunciation of the principles npon
wbicb a free government must be
based, they would give a cordial sup
port to tbe candidates to tbe party
avowing them.
The friends of Greeley sought to
neutralize, to some extent, the effect
of the resolves of tbe soldiers and
sailors in shaping the result of tbe
political contest, by getting op a
counter movement in tbe interest of
their candidate. They organized a
Democratic Soldiers' and Sailors'
Convention, but tbe inconsistency of
the attempt was so apparent that it
resulted in failure. It was insignifi
cant in numbers and influence. No
respectable body of those who had
risked their lives on tbe battle-field in
support of tbe flag could be induced
to affiliate with a party wbicb bad
given aid and comfort to the enemy
in tbe dark days of the conflict. It
proved to be an abortion.
This brief retrospect brings us to
the movement of that same disloyal
party in the present political contest.
History is repeatiog itself. Tbe sol
diers and sailors are about to hold a
convention at Indianapolis for the
purpose of again expressing their de
votion to tbe cause for which tbey
sacrificed so mucb. Tbe enemy, learn
ing tbe influence of this assembly
upon tbe coming election, are trying
a repetition ot the scheme wbicb 'so
signally failed four years ago, and
another effort is being made to organ
ize a soldiers' and sailors' convention
in sympathy with the Democracy and
its candidates. Like causes produc
es like effects. It will die in embryo.

that came under our own observation
in Everybody lives in hotels

She has a police register to record

About noon one day dispatches

took a wager of 100 gtiinens tbat ab

and not an intentional robbery. She
bad changed omnibusses fourteen

a person bad been spotted in London
as being off for Pans on a plunder.

a peddler, offered to take old jewelry
for new at fair premium. Thus he
got other notes, all of which proved
to be identical with the counterfeits.
A visit to his chateau, in a secluded
part of Western France, revealed
every evidence against tbe hitherto
supposed poverty stricken nobleman.
His estates were confiscated, bis pat

A letter from Philadelphia says ;
Thursday, about four o'clock, a large,
fat, red-faced old lady, apparently
just in from the rural district, came
into the captain's office of the Cen
tennial Guard at the Main Building.
Sbe was dressed in country st vie, aod
weeping aa If her big heart' w.ould
break. The handsome, jovial, little
Captain II., who always looks as
though he had jnst come out of a
band-box, came forward, and in his
sweetest tones said : "My dear mad
am, what is tbe matter f Can I do
anything for yoa !" After sobbing
a few moments she managed to tell
him ber sad stor . Accompeined by
her daogbter and other members of
the family she had come in from the
country on an excursion train that
morning, aad about twelve o'clock
sbe had missed her darling- little

carried her off as Charley
Roes bad been taken away, and
again the good woman commenced
crying. The captain told ber that be
would have the guards bunt up her
child, and asked her for a description
of ber, wbicb tbe old lady gave as

with yellow flowers on it, white Mar
seilles sacque with pink sash and
bows of ribbon ot same color, straw
hat trimmed with green and red
flowers, striped stockings, black pet
ticoat, red corset, drk complexion,
and all tbe young fellows in their
neighborhood called her a "buns
girl."
The captain sent the description to
the guards on duty, with instructions
to keep a lookout for tbe girl. The
old lady embraced tbe captain io ber
joy at tbe prospect of finding her lit

she appeared, and, with a face beam
ing with joy, said: "I have found

A judge recently fined an old soak
five dollars and costs for drunken
ness, and gave bim an admonition to
get sober aa hpeedily as possible. A
couple of days after tbe same chap
was again before him on another
charge of the same kind, and again
was be mulcted in the sum of five
dollars and costs. After receiving
sentence tbe prisoner fumbled in bis
pocket for a moment, as if fishing for
tbe wherewithal to satisfy the de
mands of the outraged law, when a
bappy thought struck him:
"See here, judge," said he, "you
baiot given me the square of this
thing."
"Why what's tbe matter ?" was the
judicial response.
"Jest this." said tbe inebriate,
"don't tbe Constitusben of tbe United
States say that you can't fine a man
twice for tbe same offense?"
"I believe it does say something to
tbat effect," answered tbe judge
"Well, then, your forninst the Con
stitusben," ejaculated tbe special
pleader. "Yon fined me the other
day, and here you go and clap on
another dose now."
"Well, wasn't you drunk then?''
said tbe judge.
"I expect I was," responded tbe
prisoner.
"Well, ain't you drnnk now?"
tbnndered Nathan.
"I admit tbe fact was tbe retort of
tbe prisoner.
"Then what are yoa raising a fua
abont?" said the judge.
"Cos tbis is tbe same old drunk,"
was the respons.
This settled the fine, and tbe priso
ner walked out with his purse ua
