What has Congressman J fines ever done to deserre a renomina tion from the Democratic party ? An American Disease. The recent death of Frank llutton, the well-known journalist, resulting from paralysis incites the Kansas City Star to comment on the growing prev alence of this disease among Ameri cans. That there is much truth in tho following cannot be gainsaid: "Frank llatton, the well-known journalist, is the last to fall a victim to what is coming to bo considered an American disease—paralysis—caused generally by an excess of mental application. So frequent have become these eases of the prostration of men engaged In business or other enterprises requiring the active use of the brain through long hours and continuously that ex tinction by parol j'sis, sometimes ac companied by softening of the brain, is beginning to be considered a 'natural death' for certain classes of working Americans. The end is fre quently predicted for such some time in advance of its arrival. Each case where the sufferer is a prominent per son, known to a wide circle or to the country, is made the occasion for a warning on the part of tho press against the American passion for over work and the need of more leisure and relaxation iii American life; but so far no visible result has come from these warnings, frequently written by men who themselves disregard them. Nations, like individuals, have their sins and consequent forms of punish ment. The American vieo is a prod igality in work and the penalty is paralysis." Sympathy Versus Business. "My intention, when I entered the field as a bread winner some ten years ago," says a writer in Lippineott's Magazine, "was distinctly to be a lit crnry light, possibly even a star of magnitude. Indeed, in tho earlier days of returned manuscripts, I consid ered journalism as entirely beneath my consideration, and when, through force of circumstances, I reluctantly entered upon the thorny path fnniilim to all writers for the press, I did so with the flattering belief that as an art critic I had little in common with journalists as such, and still less with reporters, whom I had held in light es teem. Alas for my egotistical conceit! I soon had reason to learn that I was but a minnow in the ocean of journal- Ism. A very short experience of the outskirts of tho world of letters taught me two things very thoroughly—one being that to gain any hearing at all It was necessary to possess more than mere ability; tho other, that sympathy for ine as a woman with three children to support might help mo over tho threshold, but certainly would not se cure me an income." SOME strange articles have been transmitted at times through the United States mail, in defiance (ji a law which regulates such matters, but a singular package was found In a mnil pouch at Union Bridge, Baltimore, upon the arrival of the afternoon mail one day lately. It was nothing less than a cat, in such excellent condition that it was evident the singular jour ney through which it had passed had not deprived the animal of any one of its nine lives. The postmaster was sur prised when he opened the pouch and pussy promptly emerged from the bag. 'I ho cat is still in his possession. Its presence in the pouch was evidently accidental, but Just how it came t' ere is not known. COUNTING ton hours of labor for each day, and that a man will bo permitted to live and labor until ho has reached the age of 05, says the United Pres byterian, the young man who enters upon his profession at 25 has before him only 204 months of actual working time. At 80 he has left 170 months, at 85, 154. The man of 40 has but 129 months to labor. When he is 45 his working time is reduced to 104. To him who has reached his semi-centen nial, only 70 months remain; and at 55 there are left but 54. Take out of this all the uncertainties, and how in significant a human life appears!

IT IS interesting to note how close the inventors of patent medicines and patent foods follow upon the heels of medical discovery. What the regular physicians are telling their private patients or discussing in medical pub lications, the patent medicine men of the progressive sort are preaching to the public through a thousand adver tising channels.

The novel in the June number of "Tales from Town Topics" is a sprightly affair called "An Uuspeakable Siren," a title that eloquently describes the heroine of the story, A era Mazarin, who is a strangely fascinating young society girl of very startling characteristics. She is a hysterical and morbid creature, that rather repels people at first, but who grows on one, and ends by exerting a terrible spell, a good deal after the fashion of a snake. In telling this story the author provides many brilliant pic tures of life in New York society, and in his cliaracter-diawing of modern types is especially clever. "An Unspeakable Siren" is accompanied by a collection of short stories, sketches, poems and witti cisms taken from the back numbers of "Town Topics." The whole makes a bright summer volume.

When I had fonnd my way into the bedroom, and had struck a light, I formed a resolution to act promptly as soon as morning dawned. I drew back tho curtain from the window, and looked out into tlie night. I had thrown myself upon the bod and soon began to dream that some one wift knocking at the door—a knocking which seemed to continue for hours, when suddenly 1 opened my eyes and found myself in broad daylight. As the knocking still went on, I sprang up and exclaimed: "Who's there ?" "Only me, sir." Tt was the voice of my laundress, Mrs. Billings. "Why, what's tho time?" "Struck throe, sir, if you'll believe me." I opened the door and glanced quickly toward the sofa. Scroggie had vanished ! "Where is Mr. Scroggie?" said I. "Gone, sir, hours ago," said Mrs. Billings. "Says ho, sir, 'Don't disturb Mr. Field.' Them was liis words. Says he, sir, 'Mr. Field ain't well.' And, says lie " "What time did lie go?" "Mr. Scroggie?" said my laundress, meditatively. "When I comes into the rooms, sir, he jumps up, and goes out. If you'll helievo me." "Do you know if Mr. Bowser is in?' Mrs. Billings gave me a smile through tho black patches on her rod face and said: "Lor', sir, Mr. Bowser went out early, too." 1 now remembered my engagement to take tea with Miss Pilkington and Alice Darell; and it occurred to me as not improbable that Frank Bowser had already gone to Guilford street, where they lived. It was nearly four o'clock, so I hastened to make my toilet. As 1 drove to Miss Pilkington's, med itating over Bowser's scheme to awaken a guilty conscience with the clink of gold, a thought which had hitherto only taken shadowy form in my mind now took a shape. I became convinced that Bowser snspocted Scroggie, and Scroggie was the man ho was hunting down. When hi.s suspicions had been first evoked it was impossible for mo to de termine. The men had met frequently for A year or more at my chambers, and yet it was only within the last few weeks that Bowser had invented the plan of clinking his gold; he had never told me that the scheme had been sug gested by Bcroggio's remarks or' man ner, and yet this now seemed to be the only possible explanation. But what seemed most certain was that he had been intentionally concealing those suspicions from mo. ' The necessity for seeing Bowser con cerning this strange affair appeared every moment more urgent. Yet, as tho cab drew up at Miss Pilkington's door, I felt unnerved and disinclined to meet him. His conduct required some explanation. He had not, I thought, behaved to mo like a frieud. Miss Pilkington's house in Guilford ttreet had an old-fashioned appearance of comfort which was exceedingly in viting. Passing through the snug entrance-hall, where a strong inner door seemed to bo holding all draughts at defiance, and up a softly carpeted staircase, I was shown into a room in which the air was as warm and pleasant as a well-ventilated con servatory and here 1 found Miss Pilk ington. sitting in an arm-chair, near the fire, wrapped np as if sho wore some rare exotic. Alice Darell came forward to welcome rae in that unaffected manner in which she received all Frank Bowser's friends. "And where is Mr. Bowser?" said Miss Pilkington. "AND WHERE IS MR. BOWSER ?" Alice seconded the question with her large, dark, inquiring eyos. I said I had not seen Frank Bowser since the previous evening, and that 1 expected to find him already here. "He is not ill ?" said Alice. My face must have expressed anxiety, : for Alice Darell gave me a quick, search ing look which I had difficulty in meet ing without betraying my thoughts. To escape as soon as possible from ] this disturbing domestic calm seemed ! to mo a grave necessity. It was impos sible for me to consult with these ladies now concerning this scheme of Bow ser's. Without loss of time ftaroyyie's arrest must oe eitectei. HUH was my duty, and Frank Bowser, 1 had reason to conjecture, could aid mo. Yet I knew, unless I took my leave with con siderable tact, that I should cause Alice Darell groat anxiety. For she sat read ing my thoughts. I therefore passed another half-hon. in a state of mental agony, conversing on trivial subjects with Miss Pilking ton over cups of tea; and when 1 rose, and held out my hand, she said in a lofty manner: "Tell Mr. Bowser, when yon see him that I like punctuality. I have been ac customed to it, in India, all my life. Good evening." I had scarcely reached the first land ing when I was arrested by hearing Alice Dai ell's voice. "Stay one moment, pleas V said Alice, as she descended the staircase, and stood looking up beseechingly into my face. "I must hear the truth. If anything has happened to Frank, do not chnceal it from me." I no longer doubted that she knew of his mad scheme, and disapproved of it strongly. "Nothing has happened," said I, "that I know of." "But you have some reason to be so anxious ?" "Yes," I said. "It's no use trying to hide that from yon." "Where is he to-night?" "I cannot tell yon. I am going to look for him now." Alice glanced up the stairs and then into my face distractedly. "I wish I could come, too." I took her hand and said: "Trust me, Alice; I will find him. It is cruel to give you so much anxiety." Bhe kept hold of my, hand for a while as though it linked her to her lover; and then she gave me a grateful smile, released my hand, and allowed me to , leave her without another word. I glanced back when I reached tho hall. She still stood motionless 011 the staircase whore I ha 1 left lier, with her hands clasped and her eyes bent thoughtfully to tho ground. IV. As soon as I reached tho street I sprang into a cab which was passing and drove back to the Temple. If I had been re ! leased from prison I could not have ex perienced a greater sense of freedom. ( tliongh the position of affairs appeared 110 less serious—far from that. But 1 seemed to have thrown off heavy fet ters and to be grappling with the situa tion now in good earnest. First I stepped across to Bowser's chamber; but as I ascended the stair case, 1 saw, with a sinking hope, that his outer door was closed, a sure sign that he was not there. Nevertheless, 1 knocked loudly, but I received 110 an swer. Next I went to my own rooms. 1 searched in my box for letters. There were several, but not a line from Frank. I stood for some minutes meditating over what course I should now pursue. Suddenly I remembered Frank Bow ser's words: "I'm hunting about near the docks at Limehouse." It seemed like a voice, and I was eager ( to start. Having put on a thicker coat and se lected a heavy walking stick, I hastened out again into the night and turned my steps toward Limehouse. When I reached the railway terminus near Feuchurch street I was told that a train would start for the docks in a few minutes, and as I hurried up the staircase it came slowly into the station. Limehouse was reached at last. Turn ing down the street to the left after leaving the station I walked quickly along in the direction which leads through narrow ways and over iron bridges into the Old Ferry road. It was my intention, when I got tlioro, to mako inquiries at the police station concerning Frank Bowser, for he had mentioned having taken detectives into his confidence; and there, I thought. I should bo most likely to gain informa tion abont him. The way was straight and suffi ciently well lighted nutil I came to the Bridge road. But here the great dock walls, like the walls of a prison, rose up on each side, and the lamps were dim and far apart, and as I hurried along not a person passed ma on the way. Iliad walked some distance along this dark roadway, sometimes gaining a view of the canal or of a wharf as I crossed a bridge, bnt always coming again into the shadow of these high walls, when suddenly I saw, in this dim light, a solitary figure approaching—a figure with a slouching swing about the shoulders, which made my heart beat quickly. Walking with a hurried step, this figure soon became more distinct, and in another minute I had recognized the face. But as the figure passed by, I could find no voice. If a sound had escaped my lips it must have been a cry of hor ror. As I had seen the face of Scroggie on the preceding night, so I had soen it now, pale and haggard, with the eyes of a hunted animal, dead-beaten, and nearly brought to hay. But there was something more than that; there was an indescribable expression of some fycsb crime committed, overshadowing him, and he seemed to he groping his way, like a man who is eager to avert his own destruction. So he went by, and not a word or a look wad exchanged be tween us. So he passed into the dark ness ami out of sight. Voices now reached me from the di rection in which Scroggie had come, an l I ran on, for I fancied that I recognized Frank Bowser's voice among them. As I came in sight of the Old Ferry road somo one stepped abruptly in my path and turned the light of a dark lan tern full in my face. It was a constable, who eyed me with evident suspicion. W hen I mentioned Bowser's name and told him who I was, the man ap peared satisfied, for ho said. "Come this way, and, making a beckoning mo tion with his lantern, walked down the road. Something in his manner sug gested a dreadful thought; a question was on my lips, hut I feared to ask it, , and followed him in silence. At tne corner ot tho road we found mother constable. He fame forward, as we approached, and turned his lantern upon mo as the other had done. "Friend of his," paid my conductor, introducing me; "friend from the Temple." "Right," said the other, in a snapping manner. I now observed a third lantern flash ing alout down a dark turning, which appeared to lead to some entrance into the docks, for there was the shadow of a gateway beyond. The man I had first met again beck oned with his bull's-eye, and led me toward this gate, while the other re mained stationed as though on tho watch. I groped along after tho bull's-eye under a high wooden fence, on the other side of which I saw the dim out lines of the masts ami rigging of a large vessel. At the further end of this fence, near the gateway three men were bending down; and one of them, apparently a surgeon, was bandaging the head of a person who was being supported by the others. The constable who hail conducted me to this spot now gave me a quick look as ho threw the light from his dark lantern upon a death-like face. A cry escaped me; it was Frank Bowser. He nttered my name in a faint voico when I leaned over him. "Tell her," said he, speaking so low that I could scarcely hear the words— "tell her that my scheme succeeded. What I said I would do, tell her, I have now done. I have found the man. I have hunted him down. Tell her—" No further words reached my ear; his lips still moved, but unconsciousness quickly followed. Many days passed before ho spoke I again. Ho then told me—as he lay upon the sofa in my chambers, with Alice Darell seated beside him and Mifes Filkington near tho fire, in an arm-chair, looking very stern—he then told me how ho happened accidentally one day to be clinking some gold in his pocket, in Scroggie's presence, when ho noticed that a strange look caine over his face, which ronsed his suspicions; and he then and there determined to adopt this plan, and thoroughly satisfied himself before giving the affair more serious thought. He acknowledged his fault in ommitting to tako me into his con fidence; but ho did not wish to destroy my belief in Scroggie without a stronger proof. Upon the eventful night on which he related tho details connected with the bank tragedy his suspicions had been confirmed. Ho had gone to Limehouse, where Scroggie Was known to the police, and where, it was sup posed, he lived; and a warrant had ac tually been granted for his arrest. That evening—as Boswer supposed—Scroggie must have followed him; and there, near the gateway, had nearly succeeded in his evident design to take his life. It will he remembered that Scroggie had told me in confidence that he was "going to travel." Whether the dread ful meaning which has ever since at tached itself in my mind to his words passed through his brain when he ut tered them can never bo known. He was found drowned in one of the dock basins, at Limehouse, upon the day fol lowing his attempt upon the life of Frank Bowser.
