1 STRANGE STORY. She could not become a burden to others. She had outlived her usefulness, perhaps, but she had by no means outlived her selfrespect, or her desire to be a factor, however unimportant, in the world' wide field of product. So when her boys there had been two, and they had become men and had taken to themselves wives emigrated to the far Southwest, and the girls they were women now wondered how they were to crowd any more than they were crowding, in order to spare a room for mother, who had just been burned out of house and home, and had come first to Julia and then to Jessie, to see if she could find a home with either when these things came to pass, the old lady, who had never before realized how old she was, began to feel aged, and weary, and very lonely, yet as never before determined to make for herself a place in the world, where by her own efforts she couli live and maintain herself. It had grieved her to see her home, with all its homely treasures, flame up and flare and fade into ashes before her eyes, as she stood alone and helpless on that fatal night. But she had consoled her bereaved heart, saying:-''Alter all, the care of these things, my house, and garden, and cow, and chickens, pirevonted me from doing much for the girls; now there is an end. I will sell the cow and fowls and replace my lost clothing, and go to Jessie and Julia. I can live by tarns with them, and help them on in many waya." Poor heart. She had been a good mother, and had done a good part by her children. The thought that she could be anything else than a help to those whom she had always helped, ah, with what loving, unselfish helpfulness, never occurred to her. Yet as she stood, homeless and destitute, in her daughter's house that bright October morning, and heard Julia's husband remark that there wasn't enough room in the house for those rightfully belonging in it, "grandma had better go up to Jessie's," the poor mother felt a strange, unnatural tremor shake her frame. The road between. Julia's and Jessie's seemed twice as long as ever before. "Did you save nothing, mother?" Jessie asked. uAnd how much insurance had you? To think, we never heard a word of it till A T..1- A 1 ten minutes ago. uuie seni up io aj uo aw you coming over the hill, and as they had no room for you I'd have to manage somehow. I couldn't make out what it meant, till the young one said you'd been burned out. How vx n do you suppose the insurance will rebuild you? We can crowd up for a tew weeks by letting Andrew give you his cot. He can sleep in the dining room. Of course vouH have to be in the room i with little Jim and Isabella. Did you save all your things?" How weak she grew as she sat and listened to her daughter's half-peevuh questions. She scarcely knew her own voice as she answered: 'The insurance expired last week. I neglected to renew it. The fire broke out at 4 this morning, and everything was gone before the neighbors heard my cries. I saved nothing but my clothes and ray tinbox with my papers, and Watch, and few trinkets in it. There were five gold dollars in the box. It is all the money 1 have now. The lot, the cow, and the chickens are all that is left to me." "Why, mother," interrupted the daughter vexedly, "how could you dj so neglectful? You must be in your second childhood. All your nice bedding, and furniture, and the china! Dear me! There must have been at least a thousand dollars' worth of property destroyed." And I am homeless and destitute indeed, said her mother quietly, in a very sad roice. ''And all through your own culpable carelessness, I declare," said Jessie. "And what in the world you are going to do, I don't know, I'm sure. We're crowded enough, mercy knows. And I was just thinking of sending little Jim up to you for a month. The air is so much purer over where you lived, the other side of the hill, and he'is so cross and troublesome. Dear mel And to think of there being no insurance. You might as well have thrown your home away, and your things, and done with it." Not a word of sympathy or of encouragement from Julia. " Reproaches from Jessie. Were these the babies whom she had borne, and nursed, and fondled, and served, so Willingly, so patiently, jo gladly? Were these the daughters for whom she had toiled, and striven, and planned? Was it not all a hideous dream? Her blood seemed turning to ico in her .veins. She rose with rigid limbs and turned to the door. 'I will walk over to tell your Uncle Dick." she said. "I may not return to-day Andrew need not give up his cot to grand ma, at least not to-night. Good-bye, children." And she closed the door slowly and with trembling hand, as she went out from her daughter s house, to return no more. There is no welcome for me in my chil dren's homes," she said; "their bread would choke me. And. oh. I love them sol And at she walked along, gray, ashen shadows settled upon her face, and her look was as of one whose death stroke has been lelt. Another mother might have acted differ ently even felt differently. Mothers have suffered disappointment in their children, and have borne the pain in one way or another, and veiled it from all eyes: even with loving, forgiving aflection, endeavor ing to hide it from their own. Alas I Perhaps they were less proud-spirited than this mother. Perhaps they were lees sensitive. Perhaps they had "less self-re spect. When ence these mothers realized that the children for whom they had lived, and would eladly die. value them more for wha thev have than lor what they are. battle against the unwelcome conviction as they mv. the realization works its sorrowful change in their lives. Some may succeed in makiDg the hideous specter down, and may persuade themselves, indeed, that 'twas a phantom only. The difference between these and this mother was, that she accepted the truth, and neither tried to deceive nerself or- others. Aj she neared the home of her brother-

1 in-law her resolve was taken. When she entered his house she was outwardly calm,

and could talk of her loss and her intentions, with even tones and quiet air. n. After arranging with him to dispose of her cow and chickens, she took the cars t the next town, and began to senrch for employment. Alamma was visiting friends in that town at the time. Mamma is one who usually follows the loadings of her own instinct, and always regrets when she fails to do so. She was in Mrs. Ludlow's sitting room when Mrs. Alpen applied for a position, as general assistant, asking only "for kind treatment and small wa;es. Mrs. Ludlow had no place for her, but mamma felt assured that here ryas a treasure for some one, and forthwith proposed that if Mrs. Alpen would go wuh her to her home, twodajs' journey ty rail, she would give her suitable employment at lair wages. Mamma shortened her visit in order to bring Aunty Alpen home. She has remained mamma's most valuable helper ever since. For years we knew nothing of her personal history beyond the fact that she had married children settled in distant places, from whom, at long. and irregular intervals, she received letters. One day it chanced that, as mamma read a paragraph from a newspaper, she smiled and called Aunty Alpen's attention to it. "It is your name," said mamma. Rowena Alpen. 1 wish it were your land also. It would make you independent indeed;' "It is my land," said Mrs. Alpen, quietly. "Bat I am independent without it." And she burst into tears and sank into a chair at mamma's side. We left them alone mamma and our poor friend in her grief. It was then that she confided to mamma her story that she said was to pitifully sorrowful to be told. She had been with U3 s rven years. In all those yearsnever once had her daughters invited hor to their homes. They had been glad she had employment and was satisfied with her position. They had even asked her if it was convenient to have a visit from one or more of the children in their summer vacations. But they had never expressed any regret at the separation, or any desire to have her become a member of their families. Until now. The lot on which her home had stood had suddenly become valuable. A coal-vein ran beneath it. The mine was working. The owners of the shaft wished to purchase, and ottered a price that astonished those who knew nothing of the real values. Both daughters at once remembered their filial obligations, and at once each offered a home with her own family. "God pity me if I am unlike what a mother should be," she said. "I loved my children only for love's sake. I hoped that thus my children would love me. Love, love was all I asked or craved. Land can not buy love nor happiness. All that I have is theirs. They shall have no temptation to become impatient for their mother's death. I will give them all now. For myself, when I can no longer work, thero remains the Poor House. I will go thither." Is her story too strangely sa4 to havo been told? I know of other mothers no less keenly etung by that ''sharper than a serpent's tooth," filial ingratitude and neglect. I have but lately been the confident of a tale as strangely sad from a gray-haired mother of children in a far higher social scale than Aunty Alpen's, yet not one whit above them in fi Hal duty. I know of another mother this hour, snubbed, grudged her antic room and her poor bite and sup, and forced to do her own laundry work in her daughter's houae, where rooms, and food, and servants are plenty. Why do I tell of such shames? Why, indeed, unless in the hope that some who have eyes to see may see, and who have ears to hear may hear and under stand? For these stung hearts cf sorrowiog mothers are remembered by One who in the day of His power is mighty to avenge. Friendship aud the Kose.

Don't imagine that a husband can live as a lover does on kisses and moonlight, lie will come home to his meak as hungry as a bear, and any little knowledge of cookery you can pick up during courtship is about the beät provision you can make for future happiness. Kemember that nature has put every man under the necessity of having a mother, and that the latter is not in any way to blame if she is n garded as the bitter part of the matrimonial pill. If you feel in duty bound to bo her enemy, postpone this duty till you know something ahout her. Don't peek advice in love from an old maid who has been crossed in love, a bachelor who has been jilted, a woman who married her husband's pocket-book, or a man who happens to be hen-pecked. Don't confide in your girl friends; to keep a secret in love affairs would kill them. Don't consult your minister; he will have the marriage fee in view. If you go to your family physician, he will say your liver is anected instead of your heart. "Benevolent despotism" is what a Scotch Court called an attempt to enforce prohibi tion.

JAY GOULD.

An Incldut iu ill Early Career The Oouldsborough War. WÜkestarre, Pa.. Correspondent of the Chicago Tribune.l Away over among the hemlock-clad hills of what was formerly pastern Luzerne, but now is Lackawana County territory, on the banks of the tnrbv'lrnt Lehigh, some twenty odd miles i. '1 i here, and a few miles off the line of the De: aware, Lackawana and Western Ilailroad, is located the once prosperous and busy little village of Uoldsborough, famous for the extensive tannery in operation there, as well as being the scene of one of Jay Gould's earliest financial ventures of any considerable magnitude. The borough, of course, derives its name from Mr. Gould, who, in about the year 1850, in company with Zadok Pratt, of Gloversville, Is. Y., who was at that time extensively engaged in the tannine business, started a tannery here, in the midst of an extensive forest of hemlock, where bark could be cheaply and plentifully supplied, Mr. Pratt furnishing the capital, and young Gould the pluck and management of the concern. They erected and put in operation one of the largest a. ul most complete tanneries in the country. Gould wü3 the overseer and general managei of the business, spending the most of his time at the works, but making frequent visits to New York and other markets on business connected with the tannery. After awhile, Mr. Pratt became dis?a.. fied with Gould's management of the business, and informed him that the partnership must terminate, and that he waready either to buy or sell, as should best suit the junior partner, and gave him his option of either giving or taking $'J0,000 a price considered far below the real value of the concern. Gould had no money to buy out his partner, and, not relishing the idea ol sacrificing his interest, asked for a few days' time in which to think over the matter and make up his mind as to what was best for him to do. And just here the great railroad king's first stroke of financial success came to the surface. He started forthwith for New York, and in a couple of days succeeded in nego tiating the .sale of a two-thirds interest .i the tannery to Messrs. Leupp & Lee, ane itensive leather dealing firm doing busine-1 in "the Swamp" the leather quarter of Nt.Ä York for $S0,000. thus realizing $20,0OC above the price to be paid to Mr. Pratt, anc still retaining one-third interest in the business. Mr. Gould informed Pratt th:l he accepted his proposition, and, very muc'to his surprise, Handed over the $GO,000 purchase money of a half interest in the tannery. The firm name was changed to Jay Gould & Co., and things moved along, if not in a profitable, at least in an easy way for two or three years, Gould still having the sole management of the business, until finally Messrs. Leupp & Lee became dissatisfied with the manner in which the business was being conducted, they having received no returns from it. In March, lSö'J, during the absence of Gould in New York, Mr. Lee came on to Gouldsborough to investigate matters; and, upon learning that the money sent on to pay the employes in the business from month to month had not been paid over to them, and that the firm was owing the men for several months' services in some instances, he determined to oust Gould and take charge of the works himself, which he proceeded to do, and placed a number of armed men in the buildings to hold possession at all hazards, as he well knew by this time that Gould was a determined sort of a man, and would pay little heed to bolts and bars where he had a color of right to enter. Upon learning the turn things had taken up on the Lehigh, Gould immediately started on his return to the tannery, and, debark ing from the train at Sand City, the neaiest station to Goldsborough, he enlisted all the lumbermen and bark peelers on the way between there and the works; and, after supplying them with plenty of arms and whis ky, laid siege to the entire works so held by the forces of Mr. Lee. A lively little skirmish took place between the forces of Generals Gould and Lee, and the battle raged fiercely for a couple of hours between the assailants and defenders of the works, until finally Gould's party carried the position by assault, making prisoners of the entire force of Lee the attacking party sustaining a loss of two men severely wounded, with one similarly injured of Lee's forces. There were over 300 men engaged in the fight on both sides, and the affair made considerable of a stir in this country at the time, and was known as "the Goldsborough war." Even outside of the fight Gould thus early showed himself to be an able tactician. Lee, being apprised of Gould's intended attacks, and of the number of his followers, had sent to Scranton for reinforcements, invoking the aid of the civil authorities to protect his men, and thus avoid bloodshed. The Mayor of Scranton immediately sent a force ot twelve policemen under command of Major Bradford; but, before they reached the ground, they were met by an emissary of UouId,.who dealt out rasnions oi wnissy so freely that the men all got drunk, and did not arrive until the battle was over. Gould held "the fort" for the time, a receiver being subsequently appointed to wind up the concern by working up and disposing of the stocks on hand; but a long and tedious litigation ensued which lasted for years, during which time the tannery fell into decay, and is now only a ruin of the past. To obtain bark to supply so extensive a business as was conuuciea nere. thousands of acres of land were stripped of a heavy growth of hemlock trees, and their denuded trunks lay rotting upon the grounds for years. The village now contains about 350 inhabitants, the people being mostly engaged in farming the lands so desolated bythe tannery company. Mr. Gould left the scene of his early struggles after wealth and fame in 1860, probably not much richer than when he came. His subsequent triumphs as a stock operator on the New York Exchange, and more recently as an absorber and manipulator of Western railroads, are too well known by allobservers of public men and events to require further reference here. A Reminiscence of Lincoln. The attempted assassination of President Garfield recalls to the mind of Mr. John V. Nichols, ex-President of tbe Omaha Fire Department, several thrilling episodes in the career of Abraham Lincoln, ehowing that more than one attempt was made upon the life of the martyred President. Mr. Nichols was one of the body-euard of l'resi dent Lincoln from the summer of 18C2 until 1865. Mr. Nichols U a well-known citizen ot Omaha, and the following narrative, the incidents of which have never before oeen rmblished. mav be relied upon as true in every particular: "About the middle of August, 18G2, Com pany K of the 105th Pennsylvania Volun teers, of which 1 was a private, was de tailed a9 body-guard of President Lincoln, and continued in that capacity until his as gassination in the spring of 18G5. During the three years of my stay in Washington, the most critical period of the Nation's his tory, I saw and heard many things that have never louna ineir way mio me puouc prima. Some of the body-Ruard were constantly with the President and his family, whether at fashionable levees, receptions to lor ign legations, or private interviews, at all of which we were silent spectators ot ail tnat transpired. ve were always treated with the highest respect by the Lincoln family, who regarded us a part ot the household. Every private of the guard received tho same attention of courtesy as the most famous statesman or diplomat at the Capital. We all formed a strong personal attachment for the President, and when tho grand old man laid down his life in behalf of the cause that had been his life work we felt as if. we had lost the dearest friend we ever had. "During the first two years of our term of service the most rigid discipline was enforced. Sometimes we would be ordered to use extraordinary vigilance, and to let no one enter the grounds of the "White House without the proper passes, and to be very particular as to who approached the president. Often the order would come for the guards on duty to be douhled. It was seldom that we knew the direct cause of these extra precautions, but supposed the officers of the secret service were in possession of informa-

tion of some plot that brooded harm to the president. "Up to 18GL owing to our vigilance and the protecting hand ot Providence, our beloved chif hud escaped the hand of violence. ...... i

The back ol tbo cmteaeracy was DroKen, a good leeling prevaded all Washington, and consequently the Btrict watchfulness that had prevailed grew into laxity. This was the fatal period, for it was at this time that conspiracies were hatched, and rebels overran the city comparatively unmolested. The president and family spent the summer months at the Soldiers Home, situated about three miles north of the city, and thither the body-guard always accompanied them. It was ia T11K 8UMMKR OK 1864, while we were up at the Ilome, that an incident happened that came very near culminating in the awful tragedy that occured only a few months latter in Ford's Theatre. It was the custom of the President to remain late at the "War Department when anything of great importance was transpiring in the army, consulting with the Secretary, and transmitting and receiving dispatches; and after hi j work was finished he would ride out to the home. That summer he had persistently refuse', an escort, imagining himself perfectl) secure. One night about the middlo ol August I was doing sentinel duty at the largo gale through which enterance wo had into tho grounds of the homo. The grounds are situated about a quarter of a mile off of the Blandensburg road, and are reached by a devious driveway. About 11 o'clock I heard a rifle shot in the direction of the city, and shortly after could hear approaching hoof-beats. In two or three minutes Ibv horse came near enough so that in the dim mt-onlight I recognized the rider as the belated President. The htrse was very spirited, and belonged to Lamon, the Marshal of tire District of Columbia. He was Mr. Lincoln's favorite saddle animal, and when he was in tho White House Stable, he always chose him. As horse and rider approached the gate, I ajticed that the President was bareheaded. After assisting him in checking his steed, the President said to ine: He came pretty near getting away with me. didn't he? Ho got the bits in his mouth b:foro I could draw the rein, 1 then a.ikcd him where his hat was, and he replied that some one had fired a gun off down at the foot of the hill, which scared his horse and jerked his hat off. I led tho animal to the executive cottage, where the President dismounted and went in. Thinking the proceeding a little; i trange, a corporal and myßelf started in the direction where we heard the shot to investigate. Y hen we got to the place where the driveway intersects with the main road, we found the President's hat, a plain si1 k hat, and upon examining it found a bullet hole through the crown. ine snot naa oeen urea upward, and it was evident that the person who had fired the shot had secreted himself close to the roadside. We listened, and searched the locality thoroughly, but to no avail. The next day I gave Mr. Lincoln his hat and called his attention to the bullet hole. He rather unconcernedly remarked that it was put there by some foolish gunner, and was not intended for him. He said, however, that he wanted the matter kept quiet, and admonished us to say nothing about it. WTe all knew that it was an attempt to kill him, and a well nigh successful one, too. The affair was kept quiet and gained no publicity. After that the President never rode alone. "The next fall, after we had taken up our winter quarters at tho White House, a con spiracy to kidnap the President was unknowingly frustrated by us. Had the truth of he an air leaked out at the time, it doubtless wouid have created great excitement. Out quarters were immediately in lront ot the south porch of the executive mansion, which l J -A - V a. I J- i position piaceu us at aooui. equai uisuwce rrum the Treasury and State ana War and Navy Departments. Just to the east of the quarters was our guard tent, where a por tion of tho body-guard remained, when on duty. The War and Navy Departments are situated at the west end of the White House Park, and to these buildings Lincoln was called often er than to any place in the Capital. A gravel walk led trom the west end ot the mansion through the Park, which was filled with trees and shrubbery, to the War Department, and OVER THIS THE TRkSIDENT WALKED several times a day, often unaccompanied. For reasons, at the time unknown to us, we were ordered to move our euard tent and place it at the west end of the gravel walk, directly in the rear of the "War Department. AVhilo we staved there nothing occurred to arouse suspicion. önortiy aiterwara we learned, however, that on the very night after we had moved the tent the Rebels had a plan laid to capture tho President. The conspirators were to hide in the shrubbery, and when the President came along over the walk they were to seize, gag, and carry nim to the house of one Green, a rank Rebel, on the bank of the Potomac, back of the White House grounds, where he was to be secreted for a time, and then spirited across tho river into Virginia. Thence he was to be taken to Richmond, or some other Confederate stronghold, where he was to be held as a The members ot the uuaras al ways supposed that the conspirators were frightened away when they saw our guard . . , i ,i . i Ti ' tent, ana aDanaonea ine Kianaping.

The plan was to have thie man fire the stables, and thus throw us off our guard, and during the excitement some of the conspirators were to rush into the "White House and murder the President. But instead of remaining in the .House, Mr. Lincoln ran out among us, and thus, in all probability, frustrated anotner attempt at assassination. What makes thia appear more evident now is the fact that, after the incendiary was arrested, he produced several witnesses, who found employ ment at Ford's Theater, who testified that he was down in the citv durintr the whole of the evening.

''Then I ssid in my heart, as it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth even to me, and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart this also is vanity." "For there is do remembrance of the wise more than of the fool forever; seeing that which now is, in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dieth the wise man? As the fool." Ecc xi, 14, 15, 16. The service is closed for this day, and the deacons with the baskets will please strike the back numbers in the gallery for their subscriptions before they can get down stairs. And remember, brethren, there is another class of fools, largely referred to, and in very severe terms, too, by Solomon. They are not, however, the funny men to whom reference is made in the passages quoted above; they are the people who will take exception to the sermon from the Haw key e pulpit. Sweet Home, f James Freeman Clarke. "When two young people love each other and marry; they restore the picture of the apostolic cnurch. They are of one heart and one soul. Neither do they say that anything they possess is their own.but they have all things common. Their mutual trust in each other, their entire confidence in each other draws out all that is best in both. Love is the angel who rolls away the stone from the grave in which we bury our better nature, and it comes forth. Love makes all things new; makes a new heaven and a new earth; makes all cares light, all pain easy. It is the one enchantment of human life which realizes Fortunio's purse and Aladdin's palace, and turns the "Arabian Nights" into mere prose by comparison. Before real society can come, true homes must come. As in a sheltered nook in the midst of the great sea of ice, which rolls down from the summit of Mount Blanc, is found a little green spot full of tender flowers, so in the shelter of home, in the warm atmosphere of household love, springs up the pure affections of parent and child; father, mother, son, daughter; of brothers - and sisters. Whatever makes this insecure, and divorce frequent, makes of marriage not a union of life, but an experiment which may be tried as often as we choose, and abandoned when we like. And this cuts up by the roots all the dear affections of home; leaves children orphaned, destroys fatherly and motherly love, and is a virtual dissolution of society. I know the great difficulties of this question. and how much wisdom is required to solve them. But whatever weakens the perm a nence of marriage, tends to dissolve society; for permanent homes are to the social state what the little cells are to the body. They are the commencement of organic life, the centers from which all organization rrvopd9 Some Bights to be Respected.

If it becomes a necessity at any time to borrow from each other, be careful, as soon as the article borrowed has fulfilled its require ment, to return it, and in as good a condition as when received. When sisters regard each other's rights and protect them, they live more happily together, and are invariably more congenial, than when each other's erty and are used as such. Summer Jackets.
