He baa issued an order to policemen that they muBt compel corner Joafere to move on. This if) an excellent etep and tbe instructions of the superintendent should bo enforced. In a number of place* loungers have been in the habit of congregating. They have been an annoyance to pedestrians, and their conduct often has not been of tbe most gentlemanly character. Complaints have been frequently made, but heretofore no superintendent of police haw attempted to break up the loafers. Superintendent Davis# if he will enforce his order, will havo tbe thanks of the community.

THKRE has been much misrepresentation about he threatened Indian outbreak. Conflicting and contradictory reports Imvo tx-en sent out and there has been any quantity of Muncbaueenisw apparent itt the aensatianal statements. The true inwardness of the trouble is discloses an effort on the psrt of the whites to secure possession of the Sioux reservation. It is not improper to remark that the reports published in THR NEWS have been tho most reliable and accurate of any appearing in other papers. The Press News reports have been reliable and accurate.

REV. FATHER SCII.VEI.L, of St Patrick church, yesterday, during services, took occasion to speak of the American He declared that the stare and stripes building on Thanksgiving day and all other national holidays, saying that notwithstandingone's nationality, he should honor the flag of his country. The Hag has a warm place in Father Scbnell's heart. He saw it in the smoke of battle ns one of those who gave his services to the defense of his country He was a gallant soldier, and respects the flag he helped to save. Too much patriotic sentiment cannot be taught the com ing generations. Father Schnell is right in his desire to have the flag float. It should be displayed from every school house in the country, and it is not out of !ace on churches.

The man is a mechanic—a skilled artisan, well known and ordinarily well liked by those who know him best For several yeara he has been the afoject slave to his abnormal appetite for drink. Bis family, while they have-never., been known to lack the necessaries of life or to have been otherwise abused, have for months not known what it was to enjoy the sober presence of the husband and father during the evening hours. He will visit the saloons, and Saturday night bis wife, a patient forbearing creature, was compelled to go out in to the chilly night searching for him for the reason that her oldest child, a boy of 0 years, was taken suddenly and seriously ill, and after the physician had called and the boy had somewhat improved he would not go to sleep "if he didn't see papa," and so bad been left with a kind neighbor while the mother went on her pitiinl search. When tbe mother returned with the recreant parent he couldn't appreciate how much good his presence during the evening would have done, and when the sick child turned uneasily, parted bis fevered lips and said, tbe father did not "come here, papa. hear him and couid not move, for he lay in a drunken stupor on a sofa just across the room from where the little sick boy was tossing uneasily and trying to go to sleep. It was bad enough for the man to flee from his home and absent himself from those who loved him, btlfc it was that last midnight drink that perhaps did the final work of transforming the father into a besotted thing at his own fireside. It was purchased after 11 o'clock.

Tho iVrce of Dynamite.

Shooting a candle through a two-inch solid plank without disturbing it in tho least is being outdone by dynamite, which is so quick in its action that a tender greon leaf can be compressed into tho hardest stool before it has time to Batten. One of the experiments of the United States Torpedo Works was to place some leaves between two heavy, pieces of iron, set them on a firm foundation and see what gun-cotton would do in forcing tho iron pieces together. Tho reaction was so great from just being exploded in the open air that one of tho iron pieces was driven down upon the other quick enough to catch an exact and complete impression of the leaves before they could escape. Itis also a singular fact that the gun-ootton itself should sink deep into the iron when it explodes, showing the points ot the letters stamped into the cartridges. This novel mothod'of engraving by gun powder is one of the wonders of thil century.—Cleveland I'laindealor.

The poor-ly-fod fish will have few or no spots, drab bally and muddy-yellow sides. The old trout will be much the same in appearance, only more so, and will be particularly l«sk Mid large headed. This accounts for those treat which have ao cess to salt water being brighter and more bee-1 ful than those which do not The varies and abundance of their food make them so.

BEAUTIFUL EYES.

Lady Adrene and the Fruit Vender's Daughter.

Young Count Telos, who lived at Flor enoe, had inherited all of the pride and cruelty of his father's nature, but as yet it had wanted occasion to call it forth. His beauty, intellect position and wealth made him a general favorite, and he was fond of study and of art His library was full of choicest books and manuscripts, and his gallery was hung with rare and beautiful paintings. Conspicuous among his portraits were women whose eyes were the most beau tiful that the painter's art could produce. Telos had a passion for lovely oyes. He said that when he married he would marry the most beautiful pair of eyes in all Italy.

For years after reaching manhood his heart was free, because among the many lovely women whom he met nono had eyes even so fair as the portraits in his gallery. At l^st the Lady Adrene, of Rome, came with her father to live in Florence.

When Telos first saw Adrene his heart was lost it had drifted into the abyss of her beautiful eyes, and his fate was sealed, for never had he seen such eyes before. His attention was well received, and before a month her portrait, with the eyes imitated as well as the great artist Carreto of Naples, could copy them, hung in his gallery, and the original had consented to be his wife.

The happiest man in Italy was Telos and he was proud of the beauty of his Adrene. And Adrene was happy, be oause through Telos' wealth she hoped to repair her father's broken fortune, the poverty of which she had well con cealed from all in Florence, for none there knew that his wealth had gone through the reckless gambling habit of himself and his daughter, and that with barely enough to keep up appearances for a fow months he had left Rome and settled down in Florence with the hopo that his daughter's beauty would win her a wealthy husband.

The day for the wedding was fixed, and Telos sent invitations to all his friends, and he in vile I his schoolmate, Bacenis, of Naples, to spend the three weeks before his marriage with him. When Bacenis arrived Telos was impatient for him to see the beautiful Adrene, and after the meeting he was just as impatient to hear his friend praise hor. "Isn't Ijsfyjkiful and isn't! she "She is, indeed," answered Baoenis, "and 1 hope she is as good as she is beautiful, and as noble as she is grand." "She is," said, Telos, with delight "And her eyes I There are no eyes so beautiful among all the glorious eyes of Italy."

Before Bacenis could reply to this there was an interruption by a servant, who announced that the artist Carreto was waiting to show a new and beautiful portrait to Telos. "I will see him presently," said Telos. "Now, Bacenis, tell me did you ever before see eyes so beautiful as those of Adrene?" "Yes, I believe that I have," answered his friend, franjcly. "Even more beautiful." "No, don't say so," exclaimed Telos.

Where?" 27-,^ "At Naples," answered BacenisT "Not in Italy. Impossible!" said Telos, "Don't say so, Bacenis. Tell me that you are only joking, to plague your friend a little," ."But it is the truth," quietly replied Bacenis. "Then It shall not be," quickly replied Telos, and a fiendish look marred the beauty of his features. He continued: "Who is she?"

Her name is Donarel. She is a daughter to Mother Camilla, the fruit vender," said his friend-*' "Tho daughter of a low fruit vender with eyes more beautiful than those of Adrenel" cried Telos. "No! nol yon make me mad. Leave me. Have Carreto come with his picture to change my thoughts."

He was left to himself, and walked the floor with closed teeth and clinohed hands. When Carreto was shown in with the'picture Telos, in an impatient voice, asked: "What have you?" "A new portrait for your inspection," answered tbe artist "The eyes will give you joy." "What! have you again painted my Adrene?" inquired Telos. "No. Itis of another, whom I was fortunate to meet The eyes are more beautiful than those of Lady Adrene. Let me show you,'1 replied Carreto. "NoF* said Teloo. "Cover it from my sight. I shall never see eyes more beautiful than those of my love. Where is it? Who is it7»

The artist passed a moment in as ton ishment before answering* "Naples. Her name is DonareL" "The plague tak# yon all P* cried the infuriated Telos, as he drew his sword and tore the canvas into shreds. "Are JOB

all in league against me? Away! before I take your Life." Three days after this sorrow came to titie heart of Mother Camilla, at Naples. Her beautiful daughter, Donarel, was f&und wandering In the streets, Mind, and with all color from her eyes. dM it mean?

The giti said that early that morning two men had met her on the street and, stifling her with a cloak, had carried her to a room, she knew not where, and there they had poomd something into her eyes, and that she couldn't see aft' erwmrd. And that she was taken into' steee* again and left t© wander. Who bad done this horrible thing only the guilty could tell, bat the artist Carreto thought that he knew. His heart was filled with pity for the poor girl, and he took her and her mother Into his own house and mured fee them.

He told that wretched mother, who was bowed in fprtei what his suspicions soo&e them. abe»nri«dl

out and Sftid: "*lt is he! Itis he! I see it Telos is the wretch. I Irnow it I' know it It is in letters of fire before* my eyes. I see his name as though: written by the lightning of heaven on a blackened sky- May the curse of, heaven, earth and hell fall upon him. It will, for ho shall marry a blind woman. He will look but once upon her sightless eyes, and then fall Into an sternity of torment"

She rushed from the house into the crowded streets with the curse upon her lips, and she cried it aloud. When taken to her home, she waited for the. first opportunity to oscape, and again rushing upon the streets she screamed' the name of Telos, and continued to cry the curse. Carreto, no one, could restrain her. At every opportunity she would go on the streets, or call from her window, and again and again cry out the curse against Telos.

Telos, in Florence, heard of this. One morning Camilla was found dead her bed with a dagger through her heart The door of the house had been broken open. Now her voieq waa quiet forever.

The day of the grand wedding in Florence arrived, and Telos looked into the most beautiful eyes in Italy and was happy. He had forgotten about Camilla and Donarel. In those days crimes were soon forgotten.

Heaven did not forgot for all day heavy clouds hung over the city, and, though it was hoped that they would go with the setting sun, and lsave a night fitting the occasion, yet thoy staid, and mutterings of deep thunder were heard among them as their dense shadow was now and then relieved by the lightning's flash.

The grand hall of the pahtoe was brilliantly lighted, and Telos and Adrene stood beside a bronze statue of the Holy Mother, while tho robed priest was reading the marriage service. The voice of the thunder was mingled with .that of the priest and bright "Bashes of lightning paled the brilliant lamps.

As peal after peal of thunder followed each other in quick succession, and shook the building to its foundations, fear was seen in many faces, and hands grasped hands as though reaohlng for help in tho dread of peril. A vivid flash of lightning, -more terrible than the others, came, and all there closed their eyes but tho priest continued to repeat the service without reading the words. Adrene leaned her hand on tho bronze statue to support herself, and then came another flash, like unto the last as the priest spoke'the words that made the twain ono. The flash appeared to fill the room with flame, and the accompanying thunder rooked the walls. When the scattered senses of the people were gathered Adrene was seen lying on the floor.

The priest raised her she was alive, but a black line was burned on the hand that had touched the bronzed statue and along her arm, over her fair cheek, and aoross her eyes tho flesh was seared. She was blind.

Telos gave his bride Qpo look, and then fled from the room. He was found in his chamber dead, with a dagger through his heart and it Was his own dagger, driven to the hilt ,by his own hand. He died as she had ^mr-r-TnTTrami-MTy blind woman. He will look but onoo upon her sightless eyes, and then fall into an eternity of tormentl"—Harry a Fulton, in Chicago News.

Xonquln Dogs as Sentinels. Dogs as auxiliaries of the sentinel are coming to the fore, says our Paris correspondent It appears that a kind has been discovered in Tonquin which has been converted into a vigilant and ferocious sentinel. It is tall and powerfully built Tho way it is trained may be expected to elicit the protests of that Animals' Guardian, of which we announced the other day the forthcoming issue. When these dogs are wanted for military service they are tied up and natives are engaged to boat and otherwise ill-use them. Tho Frenoh soldier's duty, on the other hand, is to feed and pet them. If, then, at night they are fastened to a sentry-box they naturally give the alarm directly an Annamite or Tonquinois approaches. They can distinguish the native from the European by the scent though either should lie concealed. About this method of training there seems to be a good deal of unnecessary and cruel in1 genuity. Our English dog-fanciers would probably be willing to undertake the training of sentinel dogs on terms much easier for the dogs themselves.—

It is nearly eight thousand miles frdtE here to Japan, by the shortest of all Western routes to the Orient and with fair weather, I shall see Yokohama in about three weeks. Most of us can remember a time—not so very long ago— when such a journey would havo been a journey of many weary months. Nevertheless what we now think rapid traveling will certainly within a few years seem very slow. Faster steamers and swifter trains will make tho circuit of the world in thirty days a possible fsat the present generation. Only the completion of the Russian trans-Asiatic road to Vladivostock is needed to create the possibility.

PHILOSOPHY OF SUCCESS.

WHO SUCCEED believe in themselves men who fail believe in fate. We begin by doing one thing well or ill, and all things follow accordingly. Nature abhors a discord, and each life is sung throughout in the key (as to success or failure) on which it is pitched. We are laoi unaware of the seeming exceptions, but he that states a general truth must bo content with a general acknowledgment—unless the truth is mathematical.

Success is a providence, says the priest. Success is an accident, says tho cynit, Success is a habit, says the philosopher. The one indisputable thing about it is that success is mRcess. It is probably more of a habit than anything else. To call it providence is only the priest's trick to briug the grist to his own mill.

An accident it will rever apear to be when the view taken is sullicicntly com

prehensive. Yet every successful life—as we count success, by appearance and not by substance—is a series of accidents. This wisdom is all old. The ancients said "Xhe gods help them that help themselves," and4 Fovluno favors thebrave." These agree more with the philosopher than with tho cynic or the priest They give the merit to industry and courage, not to power.
