A Cleveland Prayer.
How the Mayor of Irwin, Col., Closed
a Democratic Convention.
Prayers to Cleveland are much in
vogue out West, but the Gunnison, Col.,
Tribune publishes the best that has yet
appeared. It was addressed to "Almighty
Cleveland," and was spoken by Edward
Croke, Mayor of Irvin, at the close of the
Democratic County Convention on Octo
ber 31st :
"Oh, almighty and all-powerful Cleve
land, who art in Washington when not
fishing ; thou who art the Ltther of Ruth
and Ruth's sister and the god-father of
the Democratic party, (its father wouldn't
own it if he were here.) we hail thy
name as the great political prophet of
the century. We bow down before thee
in humble political obedience. When
thou sayuet go, we go ; when thou sayest
come, we come. We have no desire but
to serve thee. If thou say est black is
white we sill swear to it and lick the
everlastin' stuffin' oat of the man who
disputes it. When thou takest snuff we
will sneec a ; when then sayest free silver
we will echo thy words ; when tbon say
eat gold then gold it is. We are Iem
ocrats after the improved modern type.
Oar business is to vote the ticket and
Tote 'er straight What is it to us wheth
er we have free silver c not? We are
but dogstliat eat of the crumbs and when
they fall we wag our tails ; when they
fall fast we wag faster ; when they don't
fall, we stand and wait until they do. This
is Democracy. This is the kind of Dem
ocracy that elected thee, our great and
almighty Cleveland. Oh, most adored
master, we love thee for what thou hast
not done for as. We love theo because
thou art Cleveland. We humbly sur
render ourselves to thee. Dj with us as
thou wilt. Though wheat is but forty
cents a bushel, we love thee ; though cot
ton is low, we love thee ; though busi
ness is duil, we love thee ; though thou
sands, yea millions are out of employ
ment, wc love thee ; though our children
are clothed in rag, we love thee ; though
our wife, the dear companion of our
bosom, is scantily dressed and looks so
shabby she can't go to church we love
thee ; though we are sinking deepsr into
debt and poverty is knocking at the door,
and hunger is staring as in the face, we
love thee still. This shows our great
faith and love for thee. Ojr wives and
children we are willing to sacrifice even
as the Hindoo mother sacrifices her
offspring by throwing it anJcr the crash
ing wheels of the Juggernaut. Oh,
mighty Cleveland, words cannot expreea
oar love for thee. We love out party,
too. What care we about the many
promises it made. We know it promised
free silver, and we know it won't give it
to as, bat we will stick to the party. We
know we said that if it did not do the
things promised we wou.d leave it, but
we lie! when we said it, We thought
we had some manhood about as, but we
ain't We have no independence. Thou,
oh mighty Cleveland, hast all the man
hood and independence in the party.
We are fools, liars, lickspittles, mudsills.
We have no business to want anything
or say anything. Last year we favored
free silver, and now we have to oppose it.
We favored it then bjcatue we thought
it was right we oppose it no, most
adored master, Decause thoa teilest us
to.
Ain't we a honey of the first water?
Did ever a dog serve his mister mre
faithfully? Did ever a dog get leas for il?
Oh, mighty master, we are ever ready to
serve thee and party. All the pay we
ask is to be patted on the back by atras
local politician and called a good Dem
ocrat Weain t got any sense. Wedont
want any, only enough to vote the ticket.
It don't take any sense to be a good Dem
ocratic. W hat a joyful thought ! U e
don't have to think. We don't have to
worry. Our work is all mapped oat for
as. All that is expected of us is to do what
we are told to do. We thank thee, O
Cleveland, that we are Democrats. We
thank thee for the panic. We thank
thee for the hungry and idle men and
women in the land. We thank thee for
low prices. We thank thee for the banks
that have busted and the thousands of
business failures since thou hast come in
to power. W e thank thee f jr the bard
times. We thank thee for the rags our
children wear. We thank thee for the
clothes oar wife needs and can't gjt We
thank thee for what thou bast done for
he banker and what thoa hast not done
for the people. We thank thee fjr a'. I
these things because it is oar duty as a
good LVmx-rat to do so. It miy be
"against the grain," but we will take our
medicine. We will work onr wives to
death, starve our children, sacrifica onr
homes, crujify liberty ani kill prosperity,
but will never go back on our dear old
party, and on thee, oar most a-Iored
Cleveland. Thoa art of more account
than a' I of as pat together. Thoa know
est more than the South and West Call
us fools, spit in oar faces, wipe your feet
on us, we will love thee all the more.
And now our great political father we
leave as in thy care. Do with us as
thoa wilt Kick silver into the middle
of the next century ; give more privi
leges to the National Banks ; issue more
bonds, preserve) the McKinley bill;
establish State) banks; fjeter trusts
bribe Congressmen with patronage; t'nh
whenever thoa wilt and hunt snipe
whenever thoacarest to, ani we will in
dorse everything thoa doest, carry Cleve
land roosters, campaign torches and for
evermore sing thy praise. Amen.

Do Monkeys Talk?
Frota the Ilamsburg Telegraph.
Professor Garner after a six months'
sojourn in Africa, announces that his fir
mer opinions concerning the ability of
monkeys to converse, is now most em
phaticaily coclirmed. It is interesting to
note in this connection, that the savage
tribes of Africa all believe that the vari
ous species of monkeys have a language
as definite and comprehensive as that of
human being.. Unfortunately Prof. Gar
ner's phonograph and camera never
reached him, so that his researches were
somewhat hamered, although moet sat
isfactory on the whole. The whole sci
entific world is now interested in the
question of the Simian language. It
would appear that the different tribes of
monkeys, as the gorilla, chimpanzee, le
rauis, etc., have quite different tongues,
bearing about as much resemblance to
each other as to French and German and
Latin. The peculiar part about al 1 these
investigations is that scholars seem so
astounded to find that the lower animals
can converse ith each other. To na
there is no cause of wonderment in this
phase of the question. Of coarse the
cries, the sounds and utterances mast
have a meaning definite and tangible.
Nature does nothing uselessly. If the
monkeys have the power to make sounds,
it is for some purpose. It is marvelous,
however, to realue theadvance of science,
and to know that man's ingenuity may
ue able to bridge the chasm between him
and the lower mammals, so that ere
long, we may be able to know semething
of the feelings of inferior intelligences;
to know to what extent ara developed
thir affections, their sense of light and
wrong, their sympathies and their
emotions. Once started in this direction,
science will not stop with the language '
of the monkeys alone. Doiibtlc al!
animals have means of eommnnicating,
though as we pass down in the scale cf j
life the Iatiguae must become more
simple to fit the nndeveloped intel
ligences a-ins it Taat bees and birds
and cows and ypirrcls and all mammals
do communicate, however, in some
degree, cannut be doubted by auy sane
person, and a century hence the scientist
may be able to interpret for his ago all
the thoughts and feelings of what we call
the "lower creation."
Moonshiners' Association.
Charley T. I 'axey, the author of "In
Old Kentucky,"' relates some interesting
stories about the moonshiners of Ken
tucky and Tennessee, with whom he as
sociated while visiting the section in
search of material for his play.
"I became more or less intimate with
many of them," said he, "and learned of
the existence of a very strange sort of as
sociation having its headquarters in one
of the counties in southern Kentucky
bordering on Tennessee. The object cf
the association was to protect the mem
bers from the government and to encour
age the manufacture and sale of illicit
whisky. Wkenevera member of the
band was arrested by the 'revenooers,' as
the revenue officers are called, threjor
four ethers would tt stify to an alibi.
"Kich member was bound by an oath
signed in blood to kill anyone who in
formed on another. In this way they
hoped to protect each other from the raids
of the deputy marshals. The secret ieak-
eu out m some way, ana for a tiase on- ,
til the band was effectually broken up
the men, when captured, were taken to j
Louisville f jr trial, but there s just as
much moonshining done away back in i
the fastness of the mountains as ever. I
It Pays to Have a Tool Shed.
Every farmer ooght to have a shed in
which to store machinery overwinter,
bat not every farmer has one, and often
we see the plow and harrow, the wagon
and the moer, expose 1 to the weather
all through the winter. If farmers could
only be made to understand that the
neglect of machinery is more destructive
to it than all the use they give, it realty
seems as if they would build a shelter lor
it as soon as possible. A cheap shed can
hebailtina day, and any fanner who
knows how to use a saw and hammer can
build one. The knowledge that tools
can be found when wanted to use, is
worth more in a year than the cost of
the shed, leaving out all other considera
tions. A good share of the profits of the
ordinary farm is wasted in making good
the loss which comes to machinery from
gross neglect in taking care of it, and this
can be cut down in a surprising degree
with little expense and labor. If yoa
have no storehouse, provide ashed for
your farm machinery before winter sets
in, and when yoa have built the shed, see
that all machines are pat under it at
once, and make an inventory of all the
txils in it .4.'rir'jis A j sic alt arid.
Pointed.
Clergyman are supposed to have a pe
culiar talent for "improving" the occasion.
How one of them did this in a witty
anil !ttcsbcr.e, an edifying manner, is
related by the Boston Jm.iuit:
In early life he hal met with an acci
dent which left him a broken nose a de
formity about which, in spite of his piety
he was ku a to be a little sensitive.
One day a new inp':rer propoundel the
old question :
"How happened yoa to break your
cose?"
The minister answered solemnly :
"To tell the truth, my friend, the acci
dent was caused by poking my nose into
other peo -lie's bminess."
Perpatual Motion.
Our old friend Perpetual Motion seem
to have lost none of its fttal attraction,
says Iron and Industries, fox a certain
class of inventor?, who insist opon still
farther swelling the already well-lined
coffers of the Patent OHiee. The secret
of the production cf motive power, in a
case which has j ut comenn ler our no
tice, is cent rif iga! force. Saitable appa
ratus for utilizing the said force com
prises a shaft, mounted 'ao that Us ends
can ir.ove in certain directions," and at
or near the ends ol the shall, box ca op
posite tides of its a ia, are placed weight
4 arms, whicb4 w hen the shaft has once
bjeea started revolving by any suitable
aaechaniam, causes its ends to move in
circular paths, or to reciprocate or csu.il
late. Thia circular, red procatory, or os
cillatory motion, maintained by the eon
Irifdga! force exerted by the weights,
when once "fairly under weigh," appears
ocording to this invention, capable of
be:ng atiliaed for driving machinery.

The Pathos of Suicide.
The frequency of suicide in this coun
try is not only in itself deplorable, but
sftl more so as regards its cause, which
in the vat majority of cases is ex
treme depression. It is remarkable how
temirate and tender are the the fare
wells of these poor people: "I have
tried my best, but I have got no employ
ment; when I ask for it 1 am told I am
too old. I can no longer be a burden to
my children." Some of them again are
fall of piety: "If I am doing wrong,
may God forgive me. My dear ones will
get on better without me, which must be
my excuse. Let tl'.cm th.nk as kindly of
me and of what I am going to do as they
ran ; I am useless, and life is too hard.
If LUavre is bssaviw for aucis aw I a:o
here will be surely rest." These utter
ances, however blameworthy, are not
selfish. They are interpersd with lov
ing messages and gentle ' apologies, nut
like that of Charles II, for dying so slow
ly, but for dying at all. There is not a
trjei of lunacy in nine out ten of them ;
there is also no romance af the French,
kind at least but an infinite pathos.
On the other hand, taere have been
o te or two recent instances of the "epi
d.'uiie" in (j'testioa whic't amuse noajrt
of pity, and may be called anarchic; the
victims are consit Jivd by the feva in
dignalio of whicri S vilt offers so melan
choly au iaslance, auloa apparently as
insu'li. teu! grounds. "I beg to curse the

Identified Himself.
"Joe" Jefferson, the well-known actor,
had an amusing experience in Philadel
phia the other day. In the character of
Rip Van Winkle he possesses a peculiar
personality both ia appearance and
speech, which cannot poeaibly be imita
ted, and which ia unmistakable when
once known.
This was illustrated in an experience
which he bad with a Chest nit street
banker. Mr. Jefferson happened to be
in need of money at the time, and, walk
ing into a bank with a check in hie
hand, he presented it to tlie cashier, and
asked if he could get the money ou the
check.
"You will have to be identified, Mr.
JeHersoa," said the cashier.
"Well, if my dog Snyder was here he
would know roe," said Mr. Jefferson, in
that inimitable style of his.
"That's enoagh for me," iji-l the cash
ier. "Here's yotir money. No other man
could say tha as yoa say it"
