WHKN Herr Most stepped to the front iaxt Sunday night in Now York, to addreHS an aurltenco of anarchists he was confronted by a young woman and a rawhide. The former applied the lat tor with vigor until forced to desist. It is f.iiH" for regret that the irate female didn't eontlne her*eif fctrieliy to anarchistic methods in her attack and use dynamite.

Tin: orimtuai court of Marion county, tliis Ntate, has IhjuuhI warrants for the arrest of a number of the "supremes" of tho defunct Iron Hall, charging them with stealing 1175,000,

th0

order's

money. If they are ever arraigned for trial they will doubtless be acquitted and at ®nce proceed to find new victims in frenh pastures. Next being to humbugged a certain class of the American people like bast to bo swindled.

TIN: Blaine family uo longer attempts to conceal the physical condition of the ex-secretary of state, who now lies at hl» home in Washington City battling with death. His physicians admit that he is in very critical condition and that the end is not far away. Tho distinguished statesman is a victim of Bright's diseaso, which sooner or later carries off its victims. In his illness Mr. Blaine has the heartfelt sympathy of the entire nation, who wish him well and who appreciate his service und admi ro his yon I us.

NOMK enterprising Englishman has invented another dovice lor the promotion of honosty among streetcar conductors and othors who collect faros. It is a small box to be carried in the hand of tho collector. In it is an opening for monoy, and when a coin is pushed into it a bell rings and a numbered ticket Is olive rod, an indicator at the same time wording the number of tickets Issued Within tho casing are spring-controlled locking devicos, extending into tbe sled ways of the coin-receiving opening, so that the coin, when placed In tho mouth of tho device, caunot be removed, but causos a druin to be revolved to do liver tho ticket. Only one ticket at a timo can bo removed or automatically delivered from the box. The poor devils of conductors are becoming so hedged in with honesty that they will soon make good bank cashless, or, better, angels.

Tin: illness of ex-Secretary Blalue has been causing considerable comment In Washington upon tho unusual number of deaths of prominent men which have marked this administration. Slneo the Inauguration of President- Harrison mere have died six Senators—Messrs. Beck, of Kentucky Barbour, of Virginia Hearst, of California Wilson, of Maryland Plumb, of Kansas, and Gib son, of Louisiana. Nearly a score .. members of tho lower branch of Congress have died during tho samo period, among thom being such well known men as Sunset Cox, of New York Samuel J. Randall and William D. Kelly, of Pennsylvania Loe, of Virginia Gamble, of South Dakota Warwick, of Ohio Stackbouse, of South Carolina Craig, of Pennsylvania, and Kendall, of Kentucky. Everybody knows how the administration Itself has been aillioted. The death of Dr. Scott, the father of Mrs. Harrisou, was the ninth among those who lived, or were emylcyed at the White House, and the 11 fteenth of the families and members of the Odd net.

THE SEASON FOR GIFTS. Christmas 1s at hand, and its golden shadows are making pictures, bright and beautiful, upon the walls of Our hopios, alike pleasing to the eye and hoar.t. The old and the young think they have never seen such lovely pictures before. The children are specially happy and expectant that these pictures, which the good angel is sketching in their hearts a» a great vision of Santa Clans coming, are especially drawn for each one of them and that each strange device is the cornucopia that *ill fill their stockings with just what they are wishing will fill them on Christmas morning. The dear children think that Christmas is the happiest day of ail the days in the year. Oh, how their eyes shine and their hearts throb and their feet caper as they think and dmim about the good time it will bringjufthem. It is indeed a happy day, and we hop* in the fulness of our hearts that it wilt be a harbinger of peac« and lov« to every child in the land.

To those who are older, it la a time when in retnembraace of the best gift* to earth, friend* exchange ••presents" among tb«tu#elv«s. The value of a gift is not always dependent upon its actual -rorth, for"some times a trifle made by the hands of one love, i* mare precious than any gift* bowvr priceless in money valt«s would

The custom of making prawn is one to

anotber, at tbe beginning of tbe Christinas season, is a most beautiful one, and makes the heart better and nobler, and iifta us up nearer to that plane'of life in which angels are ever urging us to walk.

The custom baa become so general, that if is well nigh universal in all Christian lands, and its offerings have done more lead tbe footsteps of onr children and t« unbend the knees of our hearts at tbe fe«?t of Ch»ist, than any other similar nijiiom kuown to the Christian world.

There is not a mortal that can not contribute something to the general happiUHHS, by following tbe custom. No matter how trifling the gift, it tells us in stronger terms tuau mere words, that we have been remembered. |§f''l'v
