provisional housekeeper, during the convulsions from which Earfrae's establishment was just then suffering. She was one of those people whom nothing surprises, and though to her, a total stranger, his request must have seemed odd, she willingly volunteered to go up and inform the master and mistress of the house that he had come. On second thought she said that ,he had better not wait in the kitchen, but come up into the little back parlor, which was empty. -He thereupon followed her thither, and she left him. Just as she got across the landing to the door of the best parlor, a dance was struck up, and she returned to say that she would wait till that was over before announcing him —Mr. and Mrs. Parfrae having both joined ki the figure. The door of the front room had been taken off its hinges to give more space, and that of the room Henchard sat in being ajar, he could see fractional parts of the dancers whenever their gyrations brought them near the doorway chiefly in the shape of the skirts of dresses and streaming curls of hair; together with about three-fifths of the band in profile, including the restless shadow of a fiddler’s elbow and the tip of the bass-viol bow. The gayety jarred upon Henchard’s spirits; and lie could not quite understand why Parfrae, a muchsobered man and a widower, who had his trials, should have cared for it all, notwithstanding the fact that he was quite a young man sti-ll, and quickly kindled to enthusiasm by dance and song. That the sober Elizabeth, who had long ago appraised life at a moderate value, and who knew, in spite of her maidenhood, that marriage was, as a rule, no dancing matter.‘should have had zest for this revelry surprised him still more. However, young people could not quite bo old people, ho concluded, and custom was omnipotent. With the progress of the dance the performers spread out somewhat, and then for the first time he caught a glimpse of the once-despised daughter who had mastered him and made his heart ache. She was in a dress of white silk or satin—he was not near enough to say which—snowy white, without a tinge of milk or cream; and the expression of her face was one of nervous pleasure rather than of gayety. Presently Parfrae came round, his exuberant movement making him conspicuous in a moment. The pair were not dancing together, but Henchard could discern that whenever the interchanges of the figure made them the partners of a moment, their emotions breathed a much subtler essence than at other times.

BA.3TS HORN COMMENTS. Chips From the Great llock ofKtcrnal Truth. Opposing God’s truth is rebellion against God. Real faith never grows weak by having to wait. U nless you kill your doubts they will some day kill you. The less a Christian reads his Bible the more his heart shrinks. The Holy Ghost can not fill a man who is already f_-.ll of himself. The devil has one arm around the man who is trusting in himself. Doing will not take us to Heaven, but not doing may keep us out. • It is only when he goes to church that the devil wears a long face. Every time that you talk to God about trouble it will become less. Ante-rooms to both Heaven and hell can bo found in every great citv. It won’t do any good to paint the pump if there is poison in the water. A revival is in a good condition when taking up a collection helps it. To be all the time feeling for feeling is a poor way to promote re.igious life. There are people who will not trust the Lord until they lose everything else. No'man is the servant of Christ who is not willing to be ot service to all men. The man who works purely for the glory of God will alway get his pay in advance. The heart that fully trusts God can t : ng as sweetly in the dark as it can in the light. The-man who will steal chickens is often found hiding behind a hypocrite_ in the church. You will miss it it you undertake to measure a man’s religion by the length of his face. The mofhent you give the devil your eyes you will have to follow him with your feet. The man who knows that God is his helper is not afraid to plan great things for Christ. The only giving that has any ing in the sight of God is giv)at costs us something, i world is not dying because IS not more preaching, but bethere is so little practice.

Farmers near Warsaw have been swindled out o( considerable money by a man who claimed to bo a government oflicer. He said that there was much counterfeit money in circulation and requested them to show him what coin they had in their possession. Ho used a chemical on the coin which turned it black and declared it spurious, taking it away and Informing the victim that an adjustor would be along and pay full value for tho ‘'counterfeit.” An incubator has been established at Crown Point that has a capacity of 600 chicks at one sotting. The projector of tho enterprise is Captain Cropsey, of Chicago. Ho recently purchased fourteen acres of ground In the suburbs. Tho main building of tho plant is 18x120 feet, and it is to be heated by gasoline. Another building is in course of construction. It is tho purpose of tho projector to furnish young chickens to at least two of Chicago’s loading hotels. It is designed to keep tlio plant in constant operation during tho winter months. Abraham Peters, near Sedalia, was importuned by lightning-rod men to rod his barn,and ho consented. Some material was loft over, which they asked him to store for them, and they coaxed him into signing a receipt showing so many feet of rodding still in liis possession. Soon after ho found a promissory note in hank, calling for 8333. Mr. Peters does not know how his signature was obtained to the note unless a thin strip of carbon was placed underneath tho paper which ho signed, by which it was afterward traced on a note in bank. At Fowler, Tuesday, Judge Wiley decided the foe and salary law of 1891 unconstitutional and void in that it omits to include tho treasurer, auditor and recorder of Shelby county within its provisions. The recent decision of tho Indiana Supremo Court in the case of Sheriff Henderson, of Vigo county, involving tho foes of sheriff's, in which the law was held constitutional, was largely commented on. In this caso the treasurer of Benton county declined to turn into the treasurer’s fund the surplus receipts of his office, over and above his salary as provided in the 1891 statute, and tho court holds that treasurers, auditors and recorders are entitled to the respective incomes of their offices under tho statute of 1879, The decision is of far-reaching importance and effect in Indiana, and is a victory for tho association of county officers recently organized to fight the law of 1891.

in actual practice until 1835, during which time he probably achieved more for law reform, and did more toward the preparation of codes of civil and criminal procedure than any man. He labored assiduously before the International Social Science Congress for the reform and codification of the laws of nations and for the substitution of arbitration for war. Ho tilled an unexplrad term in Congress for eight weeks, in 1875, when he was one of the advocates for the Democratic party in the Hayes-Tiidcn controversy. Prior to that tiino ho had been a supporter of the Republican party. Ho was the author of codes on civil and criminal procedure, which have been adopted by a majority of the States and Territories. His career lias been remarkable and his reputation as a lawyer was international. Mr. Field returned to New York April 5 from an extended European trip. Ho was taken with pneumonia April 11, and died April 13.

THE GREAT CRUSADE. : Progress of Coxey’s Commonweal Army, (Setting Down Toward* tho Capital— Scenes and Incidents—Note*. The army rested in camp at Unlontown all day Tuesday. There have been raanyl desertions, and a number of discharges. A' tremendous storm prevailed at Uijion-j town, Monday night, and tho frail structure in which tho army was housed! was threatened with destruction. Many houses were unroofed. Tho men wore noli in a fit condition, as a result of this, tcJ proceed, and tho beginning of the moon1 tain trip was postponed until Wednesday. Tho army left Unlontown at noon,! Wednesday. The weather was bad and camp was pitched at Chalk Hill, eight miles distant. < Tho march of Thursday from Chalk Hill to Addison/ Pa., was one of great hardship. Tho snow and slush made walking extremely hard. Numbers of tho men became Intoxicated, and. there being many mountaineers attracted to tho town to see the procession, many clashes resulted. Tho only licensed saloon in the’ place Is opposite the camp, and liquor was freely dispensed. Marshal Browne vehemently commanded that the army abstain from liquor and avoid all possible conflict with any one. Two linos of pickets wore placed-around the camp, 6 The army crossed the State lino tnlo Maryland, Friday,, on the march from Addison and camppd at Grantsvllle, Md„ in an abandoned' distillery. The reception at GrautsvHle was chilly. No ®ontri buttons were given by tho citizens and l)ii t few people turned out to see the procession. The Commonweal army arrived at Cumberland. Md., Sunday afternoon, and went into camp on tho fair grounds. Fifteen bund red people paid ten cents each to see the aggregation. The men will remain nntil-Tuesday, when they will go down to Williamsport to avoid the mountains. Liberal contributions of food were received at Cumberland.

NOTES. The authorities at Ogden, U. T,. Mon day. obtained a permanent injunction preventing the Central Pacific from unloading the California contingent of the industrial army within tho city limits. It is estimated that the army at that point now corralod in the railroad yards numbers 1,330 men. Tho Union Pacific positively refuses to recode from its position and will demand full faro from every man wno goes East from Ogden. Tho great “Unknown,” about whose identity so much speculation has been indulged in, is now positively stated to bo pno Jenson, a Pinkerton detective, who lias been employed to watch tho Coxey movement from its inception. Tho branch of tho industrial army at Ogden, U. T., was marched cast at 4:30 p. m. under cavalry escort, Wednesday, tho courts having sustained tho position taken by Gov. West that ho could use force in removing tho alleged army from the Territory. Tho men will bo taken out of tho Governor's jurisdiction and abandoned. “Gen.” Coxov returned to Pittsburg, Thursday, on private business. Ho was fcitervlowed and said that ho felt encouraged and believed that at least 500,000 people will, have joined tho ranks by the time the army reaches Washington. Tho California Commonwoalers who were escorted beyond tho limits of Utah by the authorities and military forces of tho Territory, Thursday, captured a freight train on tho Union Pacific. “Gen.” Kelly at once assumed command, and tho men boarded tho cars, and a detail was placed on the engine cab to compel tho engineer and fireman to do their work. This took place eight miles east of Ogdon. This branch of tho Commonweal was expected to reacli Cheyenne by Friday night, unless the railroad company succeeded in side-tracking the train. Christopher Columbus Jones and throe ragged recruits, claiming to bo a division of Coxey'sCommonweal, left Philadelphia, Thursday, with flying colors, and expect to join tho main army at Kockvillo, Md. The Kelly branch of tho “industrials” arrived at Cheyenne. Friday, at 3 p. m., with banners flying and men cheering. The train was not permitted to stop in tho city limits but ran through to East Cheyenne, where a brief stop was made to take on provisions. The railroad officials finally decided to push the army right through to Omaha on a fast freight schedule. “Gen.” Frey’s contingent were in camp at a point one hundred miles west of Terre Haute, Friday night. Trainmen on tho Yandalia give a good report of these men, and say the majority are respectable and far above tho professional tramp. It is claimed that there are thirty Masons in the ranks. Frey’s branch now numbers' four hundred men. Tho Boston contingent of the Commonweal will leave that city. Saturday, April 21, to join tho main army near Washington before May 1. "Division 9” of Coxey’s array, under command of Christopher Columbus Jones, arrived at Washington, Del., Saturday, and stayed in camp at that place over Sunday. The Oklahoma branch, 300 strong, have completed arrangements to join in the general round-mp, and will go to Washington in box cars.

The Kokomo opalescent (cathedral) glass works, after a shut down of six months, has resumed operations at a reduced wage scale. All of the thirty-one big industries in that city are now running except one, ami that will start up May 1. G. W. Teagarden, near Orleans, aided by his hired man, uncovered a nest of snakes hibernating under an old stump, and they killed fifty-six, ranging in length from eighteen inches to three feet two. The same day they uncovered another bunch, killing eighteen, making a total of seventy-four In the day

[EARTH REIGNS SUPREME. , he Home of the Sisters of Providence, St. Marys, Ind., Seldom Visited by Sickness. S‘.»ter Ambrose Explains the Reason to a Reporter—Duo to the Strictest Rules of Hygiene and to the Medicine Used —Information of Value to Everyone. (From the Terre Haute Express.) Four miles to the northwest of Terre Haute, as the pigeon Hies, lies the beautiful and picturesque village of St. Marys. This is a Itoman (. atnolio institution which has attained something more than national celebrity. Fifty oars ago it was established by six Sisters of Providence, who came irom the shores of France to lay the foundation for this great charitable order. It now consists of the heme of the Sisters of Providence, known as the Providence House, a largo female seminary, one of ihe finest chapels in the United States,. and a rectory in which the priests make their home. It is also the Mecca to which hundreds ot Sisters of Charity flock each year to make their annual retreat. During those retreats a prolonged fast is maintained, and tho greater portion of the time spent in religious sac•ilico. A reporter of Ihe Exmefs called at ho institution one day this week, and asked of Sister Mary Ambrose if there was any apparent reason for the good In alth with which tho.y were blessed. The answer was that particular atten.ion is paid by the sisters in charge of .ho health and happino s of the itudonts. "Bodily ailment,” she said, ‘cannot help hut have its e oct on the niud.

A few days ago tho manufacturers wrote mo for an opinion of Pink Pills, and my icpiy was as foil ws: “Respected Sirs: —In answer to your kind request fir our op nion of Dr. Williams’ 1 ink Pills, we are pleased to say that these Pink Pil e were so highly recommend d t) us that we were induced to try them, and we think our repeated orders for them are sufficient evidence that we find them all they were represented, a good blood builder and an excellent nerve tonic. Yours very respectfully, Sister M. Ambrose,

“Secretary for Sisters of Providence.* Medical scientists concede that weak blood and shattered nerves are two fruitful causes of nearly every diseasa to which human flesh is heir, and if Dr. Williams’ medicino is, as Sister Ambrose says they have lound it, “a good blood ouildor and an excellent nerve tonic.” the source of good health at ht Mar>’s is easily traced. When ail the students assemble In the Academy Building on next commonument day, it will do cue's heart good to see that brilliant array of orlght faces, bright eyes and happy dispositions, which are duo very largely to the extensive u e of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo People. The bisters of Providence are never without them. Their orders are placed by the gross direct with the manufacturer. This is certainly a high recomreendatlon for the medicine for there is probably no class of people that gives more attention to the physical health and welfare of it? members than the Sisters otProvidence. The stride t rules of hygiene are observed at all times, and they would not use anything in which they did not have unbounded laith. An analysis of Dr. Williams’ Pink Fills for Palo People shows that they contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give now life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial para ysis, St. Vitus’ dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, all forms of weakness either in n ale or female, and all diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the blood. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will bo sent post paid on receipt of price 150 cents a box, or 0 boxes for $2.50)—-they are never sold in bulk or by the 100—by addressing Dr. Williams’ Medicino Co., Schenectady, N. Y. .

How He Remembered It. An enthusiastic young horse owner in Maine has several crack colts, also a fine family of boys, of whom ho is justly proud, but like many other fathers he is bothered to remember their ages. The other day ho surprised his wife by giving the exact age of one of the babies to a day. “Why, how came you to remember that?” she asked. “Don’t you remember?” replied the fond father, “he was born on the same day as our two-year-old colt.” Lewiston Journal.
