Were hair the power that fills the world with terror, Were half the wealth beatow'd on camps and courts Given to redeem the human mind from error,
There were no need of arsenals nor forts. The warrior's name would be a name abhorr'd, And every nation that should lift again Its hand against a brother, on its foreheud
Should wear forevermore the curse of Cain.
Love.
A thousand artists sought to linra A perfect portraiture of Cupid. No two the same depicted him.
Their efforts ranged from good to 6tupid. And hearts as well as hands we find Have their defective simulations. Of love there is but one true kind—
It has a thousand imitations. —Nixon Waterman.
Here's to good men I Heaven make them glad! Hero's to all women—good or bad! Here's to all children—bless them all! Here's to kind hearts, all round the ball! —James B. Wiggin

STRIKE IN BROOKLYN.
Violence and Bloodshed the Record of the Day.
THE TROUBLE IS NOT ENDED.
three Militiamen in the Hospitals and a Score or Ibr« of Policemen Badly Injured Orders to Fire Into the Mob
Were Promptly Obeyed by the Militiamen. BROOKLYN, Jan. 32.—Violence and bloodshed constitutes the record of the eighth day of the electric street railway operatives' strike. Three militiamen are in hospitals with broken heads, two having suffered at the hands of riotous men or women, while the third was the victim of his own carelessness, having fallen out of the second story window. A score or more policemen are suffering from bullet wounds or contusions of the head and body, disabling them for the time bum#.
To what extent the rioters have suffered can not- even be conjectured. If thev escaped punishment it was not the fault of the militiamen, who, in accordance with their orders, fired as directly at their assailants as a dense fog. which completely hid objects at 30 yards distance, would permit. The strike is not ended and order is not restored.
Following is a list of injured as far as obtainable: Dennis Bushe, policeman, contused wounds about the face, caused by a stone.
Collins, Private, Company H, Seventh regiment, head cut open with a brick not seriously hurt.
Patrick Coolihan, policeman, nose broken by a stone. Patrick Calligan, policeman of the Second precinct, shot in the arm.
Campen, mounted policemau, Ralph Avenue station, head cut open by a rock. James Degan, policeman of the Second precinct, shot in the hand. ,loseph Donnelly, conductor of the trolley car, knocked senseless wliilo running a car on C-ia.es avenue.
Ennis, private, Company H, Seventh regiment, head cut open by a stone, sent to his home seriously injured.
William Goldenberg, a motorman, assaulted by strikers, and badly cut about the head.
Valentine Kussler of Sixty-ninth street-, Brooklyn, hurt in a collision at Batli junction.
Kipp, major of the Seventh regiment, struck by a stone thrown from ambush, received a severe wound in the leg.
Marman, policeman, Cedar Street station, ankle sprained in the Gates avenue fight.
Ryan, private in Seventh regiment, Company E, struck in the temple with a missile in Gates avenue riot.
Frank van, Brooklyn, hurt in a collision at Bath junction. George Shackleton, policeman, contused wounds about the i'aco, caused by stones.
Elmer P. Vandyke, private in Twelfth regiment, compound fracture of the ski 11 bioken jaw and fractured leg, caused by a fall resulting from an attempt. to escape from a guardroom at Seney hospital aL., viH probably die.
Wilsoii. polio Cedar Street station, hurt -aij by a flowerpot thrown l'roi a .. '\v a woman.
Josepiiiuo Zdger, B- niklyn, struck by a car at Broadway and Haywood street, taken to -•.- •.stern district hospital in a precia'iou:' "t(lition.
Unknown man, '-'ii .'in an elevated elation on Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn taken to ot. Catherine's hospital, will die.
The unknown man, suffering from slight gunshot, wounds, treated at St Catherine's hospital and sent home.
Seven thousand national guardsmen and l,r()0 or i,o0:) policemen have not been strong enough to make the resumption of thi! street railway traliie in Brooklyn prjvcticable. In fact the gain over last Saturday is scarcely perceptible. The calling out of the First brigade, composed of New York city regiments, has seemed rather to aid to the tension than to bring a solution of the difficulties. The task of restoring peace and order along nearly 200 miles of streetcar line is a vast one.
The new levy numbered not far from 4,000 men. They were moved across the great- bridge early in the day. The various companies went by elevated trains wherever it was possible, to the points whicii they had been ordered. Generally upeaking, the greetings they met witii on the streets were far from friendly. Boys guyed and men jeered them as they passed through the sections inhabited by laboring people. The elements, which early in the day were suspicious, soon took on an unfriendly aspect. A Scotch mist settled down on all the city, increasing iu density as the evening approached and added to the diiliculty which attended the carrying out of the announced intention of the streetcar lines, upon lines not operated since the strike was declared. Such attempts in this direction as were made, were utile.
A car started from the Ridgewood station of the Brooklyn Heights company a little after o'clock, and was assailed with vol.eys of stones and bricks from windows and vacant lots before it had proceeded far on its way down town. A private soldier was struck iu the head with a stone ami disabled. The oiiicor in command ordered his men to snoot, and two volleys were lired toward the windows and housetops from which missiles had mostly been hurled. The soldiers' aim was, however, rendered uncertain by the dense fog.
About 2n0 bullets were sent shrieking in search of victims, but how many, it' any of them, l'ouml human targets can not, at present be determined. The militiamen's jrders were that if they shot it should be to kill. Policemen also did sumo shooting at this point, with what etiect- is as yet uncertain, as in the case the militiamen. It is asserted by the military olticers that they only ordered the volley when the violence or the mob made it necessary to do so.
Gn the same line a car started out an hour later and was beset oy rioters at Gates and Sluyvosant avenues. The police escorting it essayed to drive off the rioters, and while doing so were iired upon from a house, 'i wo policemen were wounded, one in the arm and the other in the hand. A detail of police entered the house aiul arrested Kate Carney, who was caught iu the act|)f hurling missiles from the window
At the time this was occurring a skirmish iietween another mob aud the
police escort upon the same line was In progress a few squares nearei t.he bridge. In his fight three patrolmen received painful injuries by being struck with stones. Officer Colligan's nose was broken.
The Halsey street line also was the scene of several lively encounters. In one of them Private Ennis of the Seventh regiment was knocked senseless with a stone thrown by a rioter.
Under such conditions it was deemed Advisable to abandon for the night attempts to run cars on any of the tied up lines, and at 8:30 all the cars were housed.
Men to take the places of the strikers are being engaged in other cities and from the unemployed of Brooklyn. One hundred new men were received at the Kidgewood carhouse of the Brooklyn Heights company yesterday and smaller numbers of men were received at other depots. The hiring of inexperienced men has given the strikers and their sympathizers an argument which is being used to influence public opinion.
With all the companies have been able to do only a small fraction of the lines, perhaps not more than one iu six, have been operated at all, aud on those which have been nominally iu operation the last few days not more than half the usual cars have been run.
STORM ACCIDENTS.
One Man Killed and a Number of Others Injured iu Chicago. CHICAGO, Jan. 22.—A large section of inclosed scaffolding surrounding the top stories of the Fort Dearborn building, a 12-story structure in course of construction at the corner of Monroe and Clark streets, was blown across the street by a violent gust of wind yesterday, smashing the plateglass windows of a number of stores and injuring eight pedestrians, one of them, H. H. Erwin, agent for the Buudby automatic time recorder, fatally. Mr. Erwin's skull was fractured, and he was also internally injured. He was taken to the county hospital. The injuries of the other seven men are not serious.
During the afternoon the galo seemed to increase in violence, and falling signs and chimneys were numerous. Joseph Huutal, a teamster, while standing on a load of lumber at 740 West Fifteenth street, was caught by a gust of wind and dashed to the ground. His neck was broken aud he died instantly.
Leroy T. Steward, ex-president of the Marquette club, was passing the Hartford building at Dearborn and Madison streets, when a widow in the 10th story was blown in. A large piece of the glass struck Steward in the leg, severing an artery. He was taken to the Presbyterian hospital, and will recover.
The top of the heavy chimney on the Methodist church block was blown off and fell upon a crowded creetcar, which was passing. The roof of the car was bent in, but nobody was injured.
Dispatches from many points in Iowa, Illinois aud northern Indiana and Wisconsin, states that the storm has been the worst of the season. A heavy snow has fallen, and the temperature has dropped from 25 to -li5 degrees at different points. At some places much minor damage was done by the furious gale which accompanied the snowfall.
STORM ON THE LAKES.
Several Vessels Disabled and Olhora Long Overdue. DHTKOIT, Jan. 22.—A drop in temperature of from 20 to 40 degrees occurred yesterday throughout Michigan. The day opened with mild rains and closed witn a blizzard. The storm is especially lierce on the east shores of Lake Michigan.
The tug Tramp is battling with heavy seas aud ice floes off Benton harbor, being unable to get into port.
The steamer Chicora left Milwaukee for Benton harbor yesterday morning, but has not yet been sighted. She should have made this port shortly after noon. The storm was so furious, however, and the icepack at the bar so bad that it is not thought she could have gotten in had she arrived during the (lay. She hud a few passengers and a cargo of freight and much anxiety is felt for her safety. It is probable that she went out of her course in the blindI ing snow and furious windstorm,
Reports from the northern peninsula I are that the storm is still more severe in that region and that trains are already blockaded by snow.
I A Vessel's Whereabouts Unknown. MKNOJUNKH, Mich., Jan. 22.—There is a mystery surrounding the whereabouts of the car ferry Ann Arbor No. 1, sighted off Chambers island Saturday. From reports it was believed that she had turned back, but several persons claim to have seen her between here aud Chambers island yesterday through the fog which still hangs heavily over the ice. The belief that she is still pounding among the ice is strengthened by the fact tiiat nothing has been heard of her arrival at places she would be sure to laud in case she succeeded in getting through the door.
RAGING IN THE ROCKIES."
A IJIi/./.aiNl Hurling Snowballs From Crags O'er Precipices. ^DKNVKK, Jan. 22.—Dispatches from all through the mountains report heavy snows with the storm still raging. At Telluride. where the snow was already three feet deep, nearly as much more has fallen. A snowsiide filled the creek supplying power to tins electric plant of the Smuggler Consolidated Mining company, which furnishes power to many principal mines. As a result the plant had to shut down. At Leadville a genuine blizzard is raging, and at Red Cliff the snow in many places is four and live, feet deep. Many snow slides have been reported, but no fatalities have yet been heard of. On the Rio Grande Southern railroad there is little prospect of getting a train through for three or four days at the le:

AS WE SEE THINGS.
INFLUENCE OF THE INNER LIFE ON m^THE EXTERNAL WORLD.
How an Individual or Scene May Have an Kntirely Different Appearance to Two Persons—Happiness and Sorrow Made by
There havo been philosophers who doclared that the earth on which we stand and tho stars on which wo gazo have no real existence, but are merely tho outcomes of our inner selves. Perhaps tho best answer to this is that the mind itself, at least that of most peoplo, refuses to receivo tho idea. The difference between tho me and tho not me is too sharply defined in the inner consciousness to permit Bishop Berkeley's notion from taking root within us.
Yet wo cannot afford to ove^ook tho germ of truth which this idea contains. Though not literally the creation of our thought, tho outer world is to each ono of us largely that which wo make it. Naturo herself, in all her varied scenes, whatever sho may bo in reality, shows herself to us in tho light which wo throw upon her. Ono man looks at a landscape and sees land and water, grass and trees, hills and plains, and nothing moro. Another, a farmer, sees the growing crops, tho fallow laud, tho noxious weeds, tho prospect for future tillage and tho obstacles to bo overcomo. Another, with a painter's eye, sees every variety of form and color, proportion and perspective, harmony and contrast, beauty and sublimity. To the melanclioly man all is tinctured with gloom —a leaden pall covers even tho gayest scenes—while to the joyous everything seems bright and glad, and even tho dreariest of November days only suggests tho radiant sunlight that is sure later on to struggle through tho clouds.
Even tho outward circumstances of life aro largely what we ourselves make tlicm. We are accustomed to consider prosperity a blessing and adversity a curse, but quite frequently they change places. It is tho spirit in which they aro received that determines their result. The rich and self indulgent man, surrounded by luxury and opportunity, bo far less happy than liis poorer neighbor who brings industry, fidelity and generosity into constant exercise. Tho same privileges that raiso ono young man to honor and usefulness area snaro and temptation to another. Tho same recreation that invigorates ono enfeebles another. The samo sorrow that softens ono and leads him out of self to works of kindness aud helpfulness prostrates another and renders him valueless. It is that which is within a man that so acts upon tho externals of life as to decide their results to him, aud through him to others. if this be so, then happiness or wretchedness is largely in our power, and most of our complaints only bear witness to our own remissness. We may rightly recognizo tho futility of struggling against outward ovents which wo cannot control, but wo can always bring to bear upon them such a spirit and influence as shall turn evil into good and bitter into sweet. —Philadelphia Ledger.
A Startling Announcement. Aii English literary man who was on tho vergo of bringing out a book at the Pitt Press ordered his proofs to bo sent to him at a housowliero he was engaged to elino out, intonding to look them over in thcijhalf hour after dinner. The printer's boy however, was late in bringing thorn, and tho gentlemen had already rejoined tho ladies in tho drawing reiom when t.lio company was electrified by hearing tho sonorous voico of tho butler announcing, "Tho elovil from the Pitt lias como for Mr.

Ourselves. /r
So with the sights of a city. For each of us as they take on tho aspect of our own mental condition. How differontly tboy impress the citizen who has spent his life among them from tho foreigner who views them for the first time! What a different message tho stately and magnificeut buildings bear to the absorbed man of business and to tho architect who appreciates every detail of their I construction 1
If tliero is so wido a divergence in tho aspect which inanimate things havo for us, tho differenco is still greater in tho way we regard the men and women by whom wo aro surrounded. Character is a complex thing, difficult to detect, impossiblo to fathom, yet wo presumptuously venture to gaugo and pronounce upon it with tho smallest modicum of knowledge. It is curious to notice how differently tho same person will impress various individuals. His friend will perhaps seo no frralt in him, his enemy no virtuo. One will put faith in him another will suspect his every action. One will deem him cold hearted another will think liiin affectionate and kind, It must bo that their own personalities aro reflected in him, and that to a cortain extent ho docs thus hooomo for a time, whilo under their influence, what they suppose him to be always. It is certainly truo that the good and gentle..! find far more goodness and gentleness,.! in tho world than those who aro deficient in such qualities. It is the selfish man who is the keenest to detect selfishness in others it is tho overbearing who complain most of tho arrogance and pride with which they aro met, and the unjust who murmur at the injustice thev receive. On tho other hand, tho loving and sympathetic discover love and sj-mpathy everywhere the noble and truo bring to light nobility and truth which might ot-herwiso be hidden. Thus to a largo extent wo develop the character of thosowo meet. By a subtle magnetism wo draw like to like and ovolve ouc of other personalities the characteristics of our own.

THE KING OF INNISHKEA.
He Dwellfl on an Irish Island and Rnlat a Mayo Tribe. About 16 miles from Dngort, in Acbill island, out to sea, looking like a thin lino of sand in the waves of tho Atlantic, is the island ef Innishkea. One finer morning our party started to visit it iu a trusty hooker. As tho hooker came iu sight of the slioro great excitemeut was visible among the islanders, and it waft very hard to realize that wo were still but 3(3 hours' journey from London.
Tho inhabitants turned out en masse: Tho women and children in their scanty garments of red flannel crouched outside their cabins, while numbers of the menran down to tho beach and put out in their coracles on chanco of rowing us to land. It was a strango scene and^j:uriouslyliko a picture platoin alx^y's nook of adventures. We knew there was a king of Innishkea, and soon a tall, bronzx' faced man was pointed out to lis as his majesty. On landing all tho party were introduced and conducted by him to tho palace, where tho queen dowager, with her daughter, bade us welcomo in true Irish fashion.
Tho old lady was in her picturesque native costume—red dress and plaid shaw 1 over her head. The princess, however, had evidently on first sight of the hooker arrayed herself in modern fashion to do us honor, and we were amused on penetrating into the reception room to find advertisoni'-nts from shops iu Buckingham Palace road and St. Paul's churchyard hung up to embellish the wall, though only by a favored few could tin be read.
Tho island was destituto of any schextl or means of instruction for the children, a very small proportion either understood or spoke English, and there was neither watch nor clock among the people, who had a happy go lucky idea of time and troubled themselves little as to Greenwich regulations.
There were no church bells to ring, no trains to catch, no office hours requiring punctuality, so when tho sun was high in tho heavens they would get through their not arduous farming duties, and when ho sank in the great waste of waters they could sleep. Tho king's word settled all disputes. It was a hereditary monarchy, and his people, so far as he was concerned, were untaxed.
