Killed Himself for a Friend.

E. C. Collins, a sewing machine agent, i committed suicide at Mempnis the other day. First it was supposed ho was a defaulter, but that didn't pan out. Then it was assumed that he loved a girl and she wouldn’t have him, h it that was dispelled. Then camo the announcement that he had killed himself to shield a friend, and that friend a plain man. It seems the story is true too. Collins had a friend who was charged with a serious offense. Collins was the most damaging witness in the ca.-o. His testimony would undoubtedly salt his friend, and rather than do that lie committed suicide.—De-

A Democrat who has served in both branches of the Indiana legisla-tn-ie, writes to a friend in this city the following scathing criticism of the last legislative session; “Were you pleased with the last legislature? I suppose that, of course, it will be written up as one of the 'ablest and most useful bodies ever assembled for legislative purpose.” But all do not see alike in those matters. New and unnecessary offices have been created. Needless and unreasonable appropriations have been made. Tax levies raised. Joint resolutions voting increased pay to employes, the number increased recklessly, nnd in fact the most lavish expenditures ever known, have been made Party platforms amount to nothing. Itcsolutions of reform and intrenchmeut are disregarded; pledges made by candidates to tho taxpayers, violated; everything seeming to be controlled and iniluencod by the throng of lobbyists, that were always on hand to forward measures that suited them, or defeat, or render inoperative, bills that wore or seemed to be adverse to their interests When, oh when.

Kndimwice. How much the heart may bear, and yet not break! How much the flesh may sufTer aud not die! I question much if any pain or uche Of soul or body brings our end more nigh. Death chooses his own time; till that is sworn Ali evils may be borne. Wc shrink and shudder at the surgeon’s knife. Each nerve recoiling from the eruoi steel Whose edge seems scarehing for the quivering

life.

Yet to our sense the hitter pangs reveal That still, although the trembling flesh be torn, ' This also can be borne. We set*;» orrovv rising in our way. And try to flee from the approaching ill; We seek some email escape; we weep and pray; j But when the blow falls, then our hearts are

still;

Not that the pain is of its sharpness shorn,

But that it can be borne.

We wind oar life about another life; We hold It closer, dearer than our own: Anon it faints and falls in deathly strife. Leaving us stunned and stricken and alone; I But ah! we do not die with those we mourn

This also can be borne.

Behold, we live through ail thing.. ’ t:nine, |

ivo, all things can be borne. —Florence IVrev. j A Daring Project. One of the features of the coining electrical exhibition at Frankfort-on-the-Main will be the transmission of power on a Beale hitherto never attempted. When it was announced some months ago that it was proposed to transmit 100 horse power from Lnuffen-on-the-Necker to Frankfort, a distance of more than one hundred miles, tho statement was received with smiles of incredulity, but now it seems quite probable that not only will the experiment be tried, but that it will succeed, in spite of tho engineering difficulties that have to be

surmounted.

The government has been asked to supply lino for the purpose, and on the system used the expense will not necessarily be at all severe, for the use of very high potential alternating currents is the feature of the scheme us at present planned. The alternating generator will supply a step-up transformer, that in turn will transmit its secondary current at an enormously high potential along the line, to be re-transforme<l by a step-down transformer at Frankfort to a potential practicable for an alternating motor. A series of experiments carried out recently at Oerlikon involve tlie use of pressures as high as 33,000 volts on the line. At such a potential the current trans- | milted becomes so small that the line is a relatively small factor in the losses incurred, even though it be of the extreme length proposed. Nothing can better illustrate the characteristic advantages of tlie alternating system than this beautiful process of generating and utilizing currents at a moderate ]>otential and transmitting them from station to station at a pressure so enormous that the losses in transit become insignificant.

Says Rural New Yorker: A commercial bushel of potatoes weighs as much as a bushel of wheat, but the bushel of potatoes is fonr-fifths water, and it ought to lie, and is, as easy to grow five bushels of potatoes as one bushel of wheat. And yet it is not uncommon for a bushel of potatoes to command us higlt a price as

a bushel of wheat.

Sounded Like a Cyclone.

Two young men of the city are said to have gone out walking a day or two since, when they chanced to stroll near the old pond place above tho upper factory. They heard something like a cyclone and were very much alarmed nntil they approached the old dam, under which was a square hole which was criginally left to draw off the pond occasionally. In this was seen five large serpents which were standing upright and hissing most vigorously.—Athens (Ga.)

Hound the World in Eighty Days.

Tlie first of the new vessels of the Canadian Pacific line, built to establish communication between Vancouver and Japan, has left Liverpool for Vancouver, and she takes with her a number of passengers at an inclusive charge of £120 for an ull-round-the-globe trip. The vessel is a mugr.ifient specimen of tho skill of tho Luglish shipbuilder. Her complement of passengers is full, and these glorified trippers are timed to be back in England within eighty days after their departure from Liverpool. They will go by way of the Suez canal and the Indian and Pacific oceans, and will cross Canada on the Canadian

Pacific line.—London Tit-Bits

King of Medicines Scrofulous Humor —A Cure “Almost Miraculous.’’ “ When I was 14 years of ago I had a severe attack of rheumatism, and after I recovered had to go on crutches. A year later, scrofula, in the form of white swellings, appeared on various parts of my body, and for 11 years 1 was an invalid, being confined to my bed years. In that time ten or eleven sores appeared and broke, causing me great pain and suffering. I feared I never should get well. “ Early In 188G I went to Chicago to visit a sister, but was confined to my bed most of tho time I was there. In July I read a book, * A Day with a Circus,' in which were statements of cures by Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I was so Impressed with the success of this medicine that I decided to try it. To my great gratification the sores soon decreased, and I began to Icel better and in a short time I was up and out of doors. I continued to take Hood's Sarsaparilla for about a year, when, having used six bottles, I liAd become so fully released from the disease that I went to work for the Flint & Walling Mfg. Co., and since then HAVE NOT LOST A SINGLE DAY pn account of sickness. I believe the disease is exi>elled from my system, I always feel well, am in good spirits and have a good appetite. 1 am now 27 years of age and can walk as well as any one, except that one limb Is a little shorter than tho other, owing to tlie loss ol bone, and the sores formerly on my right leg. To my friends my recovery seems almost miraculous, aud I think Hood’s Sarsapamla is the king of medicines.” William A, Lehk, 9 N. Railroad St., Kendallvllle, Ind.
