Secretary Windom's report, of which the points of most interest at this time are given in the Washingtotf newe, is characterized by the same conservative and business like tone that made President Harrison's message a relief from the dogmatic utterances of his predecessor, who was playing at statecraft.

All the New York daily newspapers except the Herald have been barred out of Russia by the censor of the press. This reminds us of the remark- of the late George H. Butler who, upon being asked what would become of him if he continued in his dissipated habits until he had softening of the brain, replied that he would apply for a position as editorial writer on the Herald.

The constitution of the United States says the president "shall from time to time give to the congress information of the state of the union, and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary or expedient." That is what President Harrison did. A year ago Mr. Cleveland sent a long message in which he did nothing of the kind, but on the contrary devoted all but a few lines to a Eturnp speech against a protective tariff. However, Cleveland was bigger than the constitution.

The internal revenue receipts during the first four months of the fiecal year— July, August, September and Octobershow an increase over the same months last year.' It is the internal revenue that is creating the surplus, and in this connection these paragraphs from Secretary Windom's report is pertinent:

Whatever may be said of the moral or physical effects and influence of tobacco, it has come to be regarded as a necessity by the poor as well as the rich. It Is now the only product of agriculture that Is directly taxed by the government.

The repeal of this tax would reduca the surplus about

§32,000,000.

Governor Fitzhugh Lee, the bourbon of Virginia, sends a message to the legislature upholding the principles of the Uiddleberger readjustment scheme, the same that the bourbons denounced some years ago as dishonorable to the state. Their denunciation at that time, however, was because the "readjusters" were taking the state out of bourbon control. It wasn't so much the dishonor of the proposition as it was the fear of losing control of the state's affairs that caused the opposition of those who now gladly array themselve as repudiators.

"See here you area lawyer, ain't you'.'" asked a farmer-looking man. icklng his head Into the of lice of an attorney. "Yes. that Is my business. Come In." "Ain't there something In the constituilon of the United States about cruel and unusual punishment not beln' permitted?'' "Certainly. Do you think you have a case of that kind?'' "Yes, 1 rather think I have. You see, mj-boy Joe, he was took up for stealin' a haug one day last week, and he kinder resisted a little when the shur'f come after him, so what does they do but put a pair of these here luindcutTa on him and haul him to town seventeen mild In a waggln afore they took 'em olfn hlin."

EXCHANGE ECHOES.

Milwaukee Sentinel: The New York people call on the western-bound trunk lines to contribute to their world's fair fund. But the fact is they will do more business If Chicago Is seleeted for the site.

Clobe-Democrat: The decrease in the prices of trust stocks in the past two months has been the surprise of the country but there Is a greater surprie in store In the drop which these stocks will take when the Republicans tn congress "go for" the trusts.

Augusta ((Jal Chronicle (Dem): The South needs turlfT protection now more than the Northnot protection for robbery, but revenue to support the government honestly administered, and to foster and legitimately protect American laborand industries agaiust ruinous foreign competition.

Rochester Post-Express (Dem): The annual re-port-of Postmaster Ceneral Waiiamakerls a plain, straightforward, busme*s-llke document. He shows a correct perception of the present situation of affairs when he says that the people "simply want the postal system administered with such efficiency and economy that It shall oiler them more "ind more accommodations and tax them less and less." and when he says that the way to gratify these desires Is not merely to talk about the application of business principles, but to really apply them, he makes it plain that he understands his duty.

A SPECTER LOVER.

Some thirty years ago there occurred at Port UnioD, N. M., an affair of such ghostly character as to stamp itself indelibly on the minds of all connected with it. Many are still living who can vouch for the truth of the story, incredible in all its supernatural details as itmay appear. Mrs. C., the wife of one of the officers stationed there at that time, had a yoflng sister of her husband visiting her from an Eastern city. This girl, so beautiful and fascinating as to win hearts almost without an effort, was of a light and careless natuie that recked little of what pain was caused to others so long as her own pleasure was secured. Lieutenant O., one of the most gallant and bravest young officers in the service, was one of her earliest victims, and became completely infatuated with the young lady, who, while she found only amusement in his earnest devotion, still allowed him to hope that he might ultimately win her hand.

While she was pursuing this heartless sport, news was received at the fort of an Indian raid on a defenseless farm house, 6ome twenty miles away, and as the treacherous Apaches had particularly distinguished themselves on this occasion for cruelty and outrage, a detachment was at once detailed to find and punish them. Lieutenant O. was placed in command, and as his errand was one of danger and from which he might never return, he resolved to ascertain his real position with the. object of his affections. Whether it was from a lack of principle or a weak desire to send her lover off with a light heart, was never known but Miss C. undoubtedly gave him hor promise to marry him, should he return, or to remain Bingle always for his sake should he lose his life on the expedition. At any rate, Lieutenant O. was heard to say as he bade his sweetheart good-bye: "If I can not have you, no one else ever shall. I will come back to claim you dead or alive."

In a few days the detachment returned, but the gallant young lieutenant was not with it. The Indians had been encountered in a narrow canyon, and fcon the fight, the soldiers being compelled to beat a hasty retreat. When they collected themselves they found that the lieutenant, dead or wounded, had been left on the field of battle, and though his men returned next day to look for him, no trace of his body could be found.

Miss C. seemed utterly indifferent to the fate of her lover, and soon announced her intention of marrying at an early date a young man who had followed her from the East. The occasion was to be made one of great festivity, and all the fashionable element of the post was invited to participate. The marriage ceremony was followed by a ball, and the merriment was at its height, when the loud bang:ng of a door was heard above all the crashing music of the band and the noises of the revelers. A cold wind, icy and unnatural, swept through the rooms, causing the lamps to burn as blue as corpse lights, and a dreadful cry, half human, half weird, was heardochoing all over the house. The guests, awed and terrified, though they could as yet give no reason for the uncanny feeling, huddled close together, shuddering and looting at each other with white faces.

While they stood expectiug they knew not what a figure came gliding into the room, at the sight of which many ladies fainted, and the men felt themselves turn cold and the hair ris9 on their heads. It was that of a man that had lain dead and unburied for along time, for the corroded liesh was dropping foul and discolored from his hands and face, while a tattered uniform, covered with blood and mold, kung rotting about a swollen, horrible figure. The eyes of this apparation were wide open with the tixed stare of the dead, but in their glassy depths burned alight not of earth, but lurid and dreadful beyond description. Thick drops of coagulated blood wete slowly falling from the skull from which tho hair was gone, showing the Indian scalper's work, and on the left temple was the criss-cross mark of a tomahawk but in spite of its disfigurement all recognized without difficulty the figure to be that of young Lieutenant O. It went straight up to the bride, who shrieked aloud and clung to the arm of her well-nigh insensible bridegroom, but the bloody, ghastly form drew her forward on to the floor. The musicians, who afterward declared that they were unconscious of what they were doing, began to play a sort of music unearthly and weird, and the specter, clasping the fainting woman to its bosom danced about in a hideous mockery of gayety. The guests, with the bridegroom, could only look on, too horrified to move. Round and round went the pair uaf.il the convulsed features of the woman were seen to become fixed and pallid with the rigidity and pallor of death, and then, and not till then, did the specter relax its hold and suffer its victim to fall to the floor. The lights were suddeniy extinguished and the whole le-ft in utter darkness, while the fearful cry heard before was repeated again and again. When the light wae finally obtained, all trace of the phantom had disappeared, and only the deadv body of the woman was found.

The incident was looked upon as so remarkable and beyond belief that a party of gentlemen who had been present and witnessed that dance of death resolved to satiofy themselves that no trick had been perpetrated. They accordingly went in person to the spot where Lieutenant O. was supposed to have lost his life, determined, if possible, to find his body. Careful search finally revealed a half decayed body hanging in the branches of a tree that jutted froiu the wall of the canyon half way down the cliff, over which it had evidently been thrown. This body, on being recovered, was unmistakably that of Iiieutenant O, and presented the identical appearance, even to the scalped head and the mark of the tomahawk, which was a peculiar one, as the specter wedding guest had done. The body was brought back to this place and buried by the side of the false woman whom the unfortunate lieutenant had loved so well. Their graves are yet to be seen by any who care to search them out.—[St. Louis Globe.

MRS. REED AND MRS. CARLISLE.

Tliey Hobnob at the IlouHe Opening—Mrs. Beel In the Social World.

Mrs. R-jed went to the capital early and shared with Mrs. Carlisle the seat that is reserved for the speaker's family, writes W. E. Curtis in the Chicago News She is a quiet little lady, not half so tall nor half so broad as her Titantic husband, and when he walks beside her it would seem that he could carry her in his arms or tuck her away in his pocket, as Sanator Palmer does his pet dog, without the slightest inconvenience. But she is a very bright woman, with genuine Yankee faculties and tastes, aud a downEast accent quite as noticeable as that of her distinguished husband. Ever since Mr. Reed has came to congress they have been living in modest apartments at the Hamilton house, for he is not a man of means, and have never had any share in the gay society of Washington. At their heme in Portland, which sits upon one of the bluffs of that beautiful city and commands a wide view of the bay, they have always lived in an unostentatious manner and in a small circle of friends. Mr. Rsed has been a prosperous lawyer, but his income has not been large, fur fees in the Eastern cities are not so great as they are in the West and, being a man of generous hBbits, it has taken all his income to pay his living expenses therefore they have never entertained
