The Appeal

AT ST. PETER'S GATE JOSEPH BERT SMILEY'S MOST FAMOUS POEM. How the Saint and the Slinner Went Hand in Hand to the Portals of the City of Peace, and the Welcome Accorded Them. Joseph Bert Smiley, author of "St. Peter at the Gate," dead. He was found dying in the woods near Kendallville, Ind., with a bullet hole in his temple. His poem brought him a national reputation. It is given below: St. Peter stood guard at the golden gate with a solemn mien and air of confidence. The king of the golden star—A man and a woman, ascending there, Applied for admission. They came and Before St. Peter, so great and good, in hope the City of Peace to win, and asked St. Peter to let them in. The woman was tall and lank and thin. The king of the golden star—A man was short and thick and stout. His stomach was built so it rounded out, The man was and thick and stout. His stomach was built so it rounded out, The man was a kindly and gentle smile. The choirs in the distance the choens. The man in the distance the woman spoke. "Oh, you who guardest the gate," said "We come hither, be seething thee," I said. "And play our harps with the angel band. There nothing from heaven bar me out. I've to meet three times a day and almost always I'd rise and speak. I've told the sinners about the day. I've told my neighbors. I've told my neighbors - 'em all 'Bou Adam and Eve, and the Primal God.' I've shown them what they'd have to do If they'd pass in with the chosen few. Laid out the plan for their whole career. I've talked and talked to 'em loud and For my lungs are good and my voice is He smokes and he swears, and grave faults the got out. And I don't know whether he'll pass or not. He never would pray with an earnest He ate what the pantry chanced to at While I, in my purity, sang to the Lord. And if cucumbers were all he got It's a chance if he merited them or not. There rams never sit down in that easy chair. And say, "St. Peter, my sight is dimmed, and don't let the way your whinkers are trimmed. They look better narrow, cut bright across. We'll we must be going our crowns so open, St. Peter, and well pass in." St. Peter sat quiet and stroked his staff, but, spite of his office, he had to laugh. Then said, with a fiery gleam in his eye, "And then he arose, in his stature tall, and pressed a button upon the waist. And then the imp who answered the bell," "Escort his female around to hell!" The man stood still as a piece of stone—Stood sadly, gloomily, there alone, a life-long, settled idea, and he was bad. He thought if the woman went down below that he would certainly have to go—That if she went to the regions dim. There wasn't the ghost of a show for him. Showly he turned, by habit bent, to discover the woman went, St. Peter, standing on duty there, Observed that the top of his head was He called the gentleman back and said, "Friend, how long hast thou been wed?" "Thirty," he replied. And then he thoughtfully added, "Why? St. Peter was silent. With head bent down he raised his hand and scratched his Then, seeming a different thought to take, slowly, half to himself, he spake, " thirty years with that woman there! " No wonder the man made. Smokes not good. He smoked and swore. I should think he would. Thinking with that tongue so sharp! Ho! Gabriel Gabriel! GIVE HIM A HARP! A jewelled ring, in pass in where the angels sing! Gabriel, give him a seat alone. One with all those angles to play their best. Let him enjoy the music, and rest. See that he has about all the hell he needs. It isn't just hardly the thing to do. To roast him on earth the future, too. They gave him a harp with golden A glittering robe and a pair of wings. And he said as he entered the Realms of Day, "Welsh beats bcumbers, anyway!" And so the Scriptures had come to pass. "The last shall be first and the first shall be last." Vineland Family's Many Misfortunes. The extraordinary ill-fortune that has followed William Cromwell and his family of Vineland, N. J., for the past several months has aroused the sympathy of the entire community. Mouday the climax was apparently reached when Mrs. Cromwell fell down stairs and injured her spine so badly that Mr. Cromwell had to give up his position to be with his family. First Mrs. Cromwell spent nine weeks in a Philadelphia hospital; then a son, Melvin, had his corbone broken at school. Mr. Cromwell was then bitten by a mad dog, the Pauper of Baltimore for the weeks. Next a daughter, Maleb, had an arm broken at school, and a son, Olly, being received a fracture of the skull by being struck by a train on the Central Railroad. He had just returned from the hospital when Maleb was taken ill with diphtheria.—Philadelphia Inquirer. RIDING A BUCKING STEER. it is Called a Harder Task Than Stickling on a Bucking Bronco. "A bucking broncho," said the retired cowboy, "is generally considered the hardest proposition to ride in this land, but until a man has tacked a bucking steer he has not realized all the possibilities of the gentle art. "Out in the cow country they have just begun to learn the art. None of the Wild West shows has got hold of the few fellows who have mastered the straddle and seat, and until they do their congresses of rough riders will not be complete. "You can cinch a horse up until there is little possibility of the saddle's slipping, but it can not be done without it. The skin is so much looser and there is no place in which to gather up lost motion. The horse has eighteen ribs and a steer but thirteen. "When the horse bucks, as he does when he is burdened with something he doesn't want to carry, his rider can get a pretty firm bridge at most any place between the crupper and the shoulder. When the steer bucks, as he generally does when he feels a saddle on his back, there is a rolling motion that is for all the world like pitches with a head and tail movement, while a horse stops his side swings before they range far. "The steer riding fad had its start down in Texas, where the animals are wild enough to suit even the most exacting cowpuncher, and it is now being introduced, further North. A puncher's playtime is often long enough to give him a chance for experiments, and some of the more skillful have got it down to a fine point. An easy task to accomplish is it an easy task to catch a wild boy who knows enough to do the grand buck and pitch is down for an experience he will carry in his book of remembrance for a long time." FORGOT THE TAILOR'S NAME. Unfortunate Experience of Youth in New York. "It it is not very often that tailors collect cash for clothes they are unable to deliver," said an up-town merchant, "but a singular instance of that sort came under my observation last week. A young man from the West was in here wanting to know whether he had left $50 on deposit for clothes. He seemed very much disappointed when I told him he had not. "It appeared from his story that he wanted about $500 in three business suits, a hurry—two of them business suits, a dress pattern and some trousers. He saw patterns that he liked in a shop window, was measured, and complied with the request for $50 on deposit with a word. He got a receipt for it, of course, and then went down town to see some fellows he knew from the West. He gave him a rousing good time all day, and took him to the theater at night. "When he looked for that receipt it in the morning he couldn't find it. Then he started from the hotel, thinking it would be an easy thing to find the tailor from whom he ordered the clothes. But he couldn't remember the name of the firm, nor was he sure he could recognize the shop unless the same goods were in the window. The chances are ten to one they would not be, or at least, not arranged in the same manner. About all that youth knew was that the shop was on one of the cross streets somewhere between Forty-second and Twenty-third, but he didn't remember whether it was East or West. He trotted around for two or three hours telling other tailors the same story he told us, but he hadn't found his clothes when we beaded him good-bye. That is the funniest case of forgetfulness I have run across in my experience in this business."—New York Times. Eugacious Time. There is a sort of revival of "Uclem Chet" Thomas stories. The Topeka Capital tells this one: One day "Uclem Chet" drove out to South Topeka to sell a man a horse. The man was no judge of horselfish, and he knew it. So, after looking the animal over, he told "Uclem Chet" to come out again in about ten days. "A friend of mine who knows a horse when he sees it will be here then," he said, "and I'll see what he thinks." And, by the way, he added, "how old did you say the horse was?" And, by comin' February, said "Uclem Chet," as he gestured to the reins and drove it about ten days "Uclem Chet" drove out to South Topeka again. The prospective purchaser's friend was there, and after looking the horse in the mouth, asked his age. "Twelve years old this spring," replied Unclem Chet," smiling blandly. "But, broke in the man who wanted to buy the horse, "you told me not ten days ago that he was only seven. "So I did, squaked "Uclem Chet," "so I did, Heavens, how time does飞!"—Kansas City Star. The Home Ruler. A short time ago a party of young men, who in their boyhood days had been chums, met by chance. They had all got married since they last met, and the conversation drifted to their wives, and, incidentally, as to which was "boss" of the house. One of the party was so vehement as to his "ruiling the root" that the others thought they would investigate. A few days afterwards one of them went to his house on pretense of visiting him. His wife answered the bell, and she was asked: "Is the boss in?" "I am boss here," she replied. "If you mean George, he is in the kitchen nursing the baby." DARING SAILOR IS CROSSING THE SEA IN AN OPEN DORY --- LUDWIG EISENBRAUN "What about Capt. Elsenbraum, and his little dory Constitution—has anything been heard of them?" "Anything learnd of them? Why, we hear frequently that they have been sighted by ocean liners. They will reach the other side as sure as you're born." One of the old sea captains who was seen at the Mariners' House at Boston a day or two ago was interviewed on the latest attempt to cross the Atlantic in an open boat. "In't there danger of an accident?" "Danger! I'll tell you, sir, there's no more danger to him in that seventeen-foot craft in mid-ocean than there is to you sitting in that chair. She's the stachest little boat that was ever put together in this section, and is capable of weathering the worst of storms." "How about the risk of being run down by ocean liners?" down by ocean men. "Leave it to Ludwig Elsebram to look out for that. He knows his business. He hasn't been following the men. He's past twenty-four years without knowing something about navigation. He has laid out his plans to avert any mishaps of that kind." Somewhere on the big, wide ocean the little ship is now sailing, and tidings of her whereabouts are eagerly sought after by the old salts. Capt. Elsebram is well known along the coast, and everyone is interested in his welfare. She left before a good breeze, and just twenty-four hours later she was sighted 185 miles out to sea. According to schedule she should A now be in the gulf stream, well on her way to the other side. It is expected that the trip of 3,000 miles will be made in 35 days, and with favorable weather, the doughty skipper can cover the distance in much less time. No man on the Atlantic Ocean could be dotted to make such a hazardous trip than Capt. Elsebrain. He has demonstrated his ability as a sailor in two navies. He was born in Germany thirty-four years ago, and when a mere lad took to the sea. When but nineteen years of age he was commissioned as an officer in the naval service of the Kaiser, and for six years he made a fine record. He thought, however, that the American turtle and America, so he hoped his position in order that he might become a citizen of the Republic. Coming to Boston nine years ago, he went into the merchant marine service, and soon demonstrated to the Yankee tara that he was a man to be reckoned with. He demonstrated his ability as a navigator on two or three stormy cruises, and on one occasion saved the lives of a ship's crew during a storm on the ocean. For a career of seasons past Capt. James Sumner has been an officer on one or another of the racing yachts, and he is thoroughly familiar with most of the craft on the New England coast. He was second mate on the yacht Marine, and last year was first mate on the Constitution. He had an offer to go out again this year, but declined in order that he might take the European trip. "This is no plan of a fanatic," he said, when speaking of his proposed short time before his departure. "I have had the plan in my head for years, and have only been waiting to secure financial backing. I have no ```markdown ``` doubt of the success of my venture and have no fear of an accident. The great trouble with those in the past who have failed in their endeavors to cross the Atlantic in an open boat that their craft was not of the right selection, which I intend the trip will be safer than a sloop or tugboat. The management of the boat during sleeping time, he said, was an easy matter. "From two to three hours' sleep in twenty-four will be sufficient on the voyage," he said. "During that time: I shall drop out a sea anchor, which will assist in keeping the boat always with her head to the waves. This is a most important feature of a trip of this kind. In my opinion, the larger boats than we had much larger boats than the Constitution have met their end by turning broadside when they were sleeping, and capsizing. "L. Cheinstein, who was a playmate of Elsebaum's in Kruhnach, Germany, where he was born, is putting up the capital for the undertaking. So far he has spent about $500, and the expenses will be considerably larger before the completion of the trip. He is just as enthusiastic and as confident in his work. Elsebaum, and is ready to post a wager that his friend will make the trip safely. "We have been working on the project for the past eight months" he said. "The boat, which is what is known as a Swampscot dory, was built especially for the trip." "Capt. Eisenbraum comes from a LUD seafaring family, although he was born in the middle part of Germany. His father, Jacob Elsebraum, who died a year ago, was an admiral in the German navy, and he also had a brother who was in the navy. Ludwig went into the navy when quite young, and remained there until he was twenty-five. Then he came to this country, and did not return home again until the death of his father, a year ago. He is a naturalized American citizen, and makes his home in Boston when he is not on the water. "When he started I presented him with a beautiful American flag and told him to hoist it at whatever port he might touch. He is fond of his adopted country and knows that his allegiance to Old Glory will be appreciated. His first stop will be made at Queenstown, from where he will go to London. He will also go to Hamburg and Berlin and will undoubted his royal love received by the people of his royal land. He will also visit Paris and probably other points in Europe. The return trip will be made in an ocean liner." At least a score of daring navigators have left, these shores to cross the Atlantic in small boats during the past ten or fifteen years. Some of them have given up the task after getting out on the ocean a short distance and have made their way to some other seacast town than the one from which they started. Still there are some few who have accomplished the feat. Some years ago Capt. Crepo of New Bedford made the trip with his wife in a double-ender, something like a whalefoot. Later he became master of a vessel and was drowned in the West Indies. Capt. Andrea is one of those who started to make the trip, and from 'tin whom nothing has ever been heard. Shortly after his marriage last year he and his wife left one of the seashore resorts in a small boat for the purpose of going to England. Neither of them have been heard from since, and no trace of their boat has been found. Capt. Blockburn of Gloucester and Capt. Perry of Swampscott have made the trip across the Atlantic, but they used much larger boats than the one in which Capt. Elsbenbraum is sailing. —Boston Journal. Indian Postal Humora. Comment, says the London Telegraph is made by the Civil and Military Gazette of Lahore on the public inconvenience of the custom house regulation by which letters sent to India containing durable articles undeclared must be opened by the addresse, possibly in some remote up-country station, in presence of the local postmaster, and then reported to Bombay or Karachi for assessment of duty before final delivery. The public, says our contemporary, are irritated at the delay, and at times take vigorous action by war of protest—like the peppery up-country colonel who, receiving a back set of false teeth sent home for repair, for lack of which he had been living a retreat on his them into him, and on being told he would go back to Karachi for assessment of duty, and defied all the departments to take them away while he drew breath. Another case is that of a lady who received a fine ostrich feather by post and duly opened it in the presence of the native postmaster, M. H. LUDWIG EISENBRAUY leaving it to him to settle if it was outlawed or not.

GREAT POWER OF MAGNETS, Force Is Applied to Many Useful Purposes in Three Days. One of the practical uses of a magnet, but to those immediately concerned a highly important use, is that in which it is sometimes employed to withdraw small pieces of iron from such out of the way places as the human eye. Another use of the tractive force of magnetism on a much larger scale was that to which it was put by Edison in his magnetic ore separator, in which the ore, previously crushed to a fine powder, is dropped down a chute past the poles of powerful elect-magnets, in passing which the iron particles of the ore are deflected to one side, while the nonmagnetic stone dust continues undeflected down the chute. Still, instance of the employment of magnetism in a small scale in which a magnetized tack hammer is used in the manufacture of strawberry baskets on a large scale in conjunction with a mechanical device which presents the tacks, one at a time and head up, to the operative, thereby greatly facilitating his work. It is a far cry from lifting a tack by means of magnetism to the lifting of massive iron and steel plates weighing four, six and twelve tons by this same force, which is now being done every workday in a number of large steel works. Electro-magnetism, of course, is utilized, the form of the magnet being usually rectangular for this work and presenting a flat surface to the plates fitted by magnetism from cranes and pick up chains by simple contact and without the loss of time consequent to the adjustment of chains and hooks in the older method. It is also found that the metal plates can be lifted by the magnets while still so hot that it would be impossible for the men to handle them—Cassier's Magazine. STOLE LIGHT FROM WIRES. Hotelkeeper Thought It Cheaper than Feeing Electrical Company. A hotelkeeper in the City of Mexico, whose place was always brilliantly lighted by electric lamps, apparently without, regard to cost, has recently been convicted by a local judge for stealing from the electric light company the current with which his hostelry is owned. He was convicted of stealing from a year's imprisonment and a fine of $33.70, and, as an additional penalty, was "disqualified for all kinds of public honors and employments." The landlord who attempted 10 evade the electric company's charges wired his house and made a connection with the company's cables, with the intention, as he pleaded, of calling at the office of the company and explaining the matter at a later day. He also decided to call the company for "only a month." The company had its suspicions aroused and applied to the court for authority to make an examination of the hotel lighting system, which was granted, with the result of revealing the fraud. The legal point of interest involved in the case hinged upon the definition of the word "robbery," which the district code thus elucidates: "He commits robbery who possesses himself of a movable thing belonging to another, without right and without the consent of the person entitled by law to dispose of it." Timid. The man who is never seriously sick was finally persuaded by anxious friends to apply to the physician for a prescription.

"And now you're depending on your recollection to get it correct." "But, my dear sir——" "I know—you're not a man to take needless chances. But I'm too timid to trust my physical safety to anything that seems so much like hearsay evidence."—Washington Star. The Proper Thing.

That' Particular Headgear Savored Too Much of Eastern Civilization —How the Wearer of One Made Himself Popular With the Crowd. Recently the telegrams brought from Fagan, Texas, a story of how the town roughs had set upon and killed a Bible agent whose sole offense was that he wore a long-tailed coat, patent leather shoes and a plug hat. Commenting on the story, the Wellington (Kan.) Mail declares that "a similar incident occurred in the town of Caldwell, the plug hat shooting in Caldwell was a different affair from that of Fagan. In April, 1872, one McCarty, a local "had man," entered a store in Caldwell and found there Dr. Anderson, who was known throughout the Southwest as "the plug hat man," because he was usually adorned with that kind of headgear. Anderson was not a "tenderfoot." He had been a prominent member of the Butler county vigilantes, and it was known that McCarty had a grudge against Anderson's store and found Anderson there, store and a six-shooter and said: "Watch me put a hole through that hat." He did put a hole through the hat, and when Anderson protested he fired again, this time putting a hole through Anderson's head and causing his instant death. McCarty was pursued by the indignant citizens of the town and took refuge at the ranch of Curley Marshall. When the ranch house was surrounded he and Anderson the house was set on fire. In the running fight which followed, he managed to escape, after wounding several of his pursuers, but a few days later he was overtaken and his dead body was left on the prairies. There is no well authenticated account of a killing in Kansas on account of the wearing of a plug hat, though it is popularly supposed that the incidents were frequent. It is quite true that when a stranger appeared in one of the border towns wearing this kind of head cover, he was always greeted upraviously, and it usually went off, so that affair usually went off in the best of humor. The first plug hat worn into Hays City, for example, was on the head of the lateate Henley who in 1868 he went to Fort Hays to a clerk in the quartermaster's department. He was a good dresser, and when he stepped from the train he wore a tall silk hat. At once the town loafers and joshers and killers congregated at the depot. They said nothing at all to Henley, but they formed close behind him a procession, and whenever he walked they walked, keeping up the lockstep. The foremost man walked so close to Henley that he could not even turn around to see his forcemention solemnly moving along, each man with his hands on the shoulders of the cae in front of him and all keeping step. Then an inspiration seized Kenley, and he steered straight for Tom Drum's saloon, the most popular place in town. Walking up to the bar he set his silk hat down, bowed positively to the barkeeper, and said: "These are my friends, and they are all drinking with me." There was a big bowl of tom and jerry on the bar. Some one emptied it into the plug hat and some one else got a dipper and passed the drink around. Presently the liquor soaked through the top of the hat, and thereupon it was placed on the top of a post, and every man in the crowd took a shot at it, riddling it into rags. Henley came off from the encounter with every man his friend. He had met the rude introduction with good nature, and his place was made—Kansas City (Mo.) Journal. The Champion Economist. Albert J. Barr, proprietor of the Pittsburgh Post, while in New York attending the annual meeting of the Associated Press, was discussing with a group of friends the queer economical traits some men develop. "I heard of a miserly chap in Western Pennsylvania," said Mr. Barr, "who determined to save on his undertaker's bill, so he made his own coffin and had it ready when he needed it." He remarked one of the party. "I frequently have heard of people making their own coffin." "Yes," said the Smoky City journalist, "but when the part of this man's house devoted to bodily cleanliness was undergoing repairs, to keep down the plumber's bill he lined the coffin with zinc and used it as a bathtub for the rest of his life. Then he was buried in it."—New York Times. Largest of Overgrown Wheels. The most overt shotwater wheeled still in existence is said to be that at the Great Laxey mine, on the Isle of Man. According to a description in London Engineering this wheel is 72 feet in diameter and capable of developing about 200 horse power. It has for many years driven the pumps for draining the mine, but in the extension of the workings a greater quantity, of water was met than the pumps could handle, and the mine has been flooded, to a total depth of about 1,000 feet. A temporary steam pumping plant is now to be installed to unwater the mine and later a permanent electrical pumping plant will be installed.

Prayer by Rev. Newell Dwight Millis, pastor of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, New York. SATURDAY, JUNE 27. 1903. In a sermon on "The Negro in the South," in the Church of the Epiphany, McDonough St., Brooklyn, Sunday night, the Rev. Dean Richmond Snyder, the pastor of the South for its treatment of the "Negro Problem." He declared that the South had shown itself incapable of solving the race problem, and that the Afro-American was not only losing his rights as a citizen, but also as a man. The Charleston News and Courter acknowledges that "the intellect and valor of the Japanese, are equal to those of Anglo-Americans, are a respected people, and the News and Courter has heretofore maintained that the Anglo-Saxon was ordained by God to dominate all other peoples, this is a strange admission. The recent lynching at Belleville, Illinois, is a disgrace to the state, and the majority of the people of the state feel humiliated by the violence. The press and pulp of the entire state is practically unanimous in denunciation of the outrage. ```markdown ``` In his forethought the author, in his own words, things which if read with patience, may show the strange meaning of the twentieth century.

He has made a number of probabilities, that 10,000,000 men can make effective progress in economic lines if they are given the service castle, and allowed only the most meager chance for developing their exceptional skills. He has made a distinct answer to these questions it is an emphatic "No." And Mr. Washington thus faces the triple artisans, business men and artisans, under modern competitive methods, for workingmen and property owners to fight the surface. "He instils on thrift and self-respect, but at the same time he encourages under modern competitive inferiority such as is bound to the manhood of any race in the long run. He advocates common school and industrial training, and depreciates institutions of higher learning, but he also believes he could remain open a day were it not for teachers trained in Nebraska colleges or "The black men of America have a duty to perform, a duty, to oppose a part of the work of their greatest leader. So far as Mr. Washington is concerned, training for the masses, we must hold up his hands and strive to glory in the strength of this Joshua called of God and of man to teach the head of the church, Mr. Joshua, for injustice, North or South, does not rightly value the privilege and duty of our people to oppose distinctions, and THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER "Patiently, quietly, doggedly, persistently, through tough, dry, by self-sacrifice, by foreseen, by honesty and industry, we must re-enforce our commitment. One house built, one house sweetly and intelligently kept, one man who has mastered the bank account, one school or church maintained, one factory running successfully, one doctor, one patient cured by a Negro doctor, one sermon well preached, one office well filled with people, one patient in our favor than the abstract eloquence that can be summed to please our hearts, one soil, up through wamps, up through forests, up through the streams, the roots through com-munity and religion."

THE TRUE ABRAHAM LINCOLN. The True Abraham Lincoln. By William Eleroy Curtis, author of The True Thomas M. Person, Crown 2,000. By Ralph Linnocke. By R. Linnocke Company. There are five characters in history, in the record of what lives grow in interest with each succeeding generation, and which glean brighter as time passes. They are the men of men and things, by which they were envisioned. Characteracters are unique and original and bear striking analogies to each other—the most important of which is the man of the past. They may be called the guide posts of civilization, and may be named as, Christ, the lord of the church, the latter that William Eleroy Curtis has written under the title, "The True Abraham Lincoln." The store of Lincoln is always absorbing and full of human interest. The volcano that would stock a library of large dimensions we have, however, read none of them in the book, and Mr. Dickson's publication, *Dear Mr. Dickson's publication*, *De maut nil nil bonum* has exerted such a profusion of his writings that its literature falls to throw much light upon many of the eminent careers of distinguished statesmen and soldiers. Mr. Dickson, however, in an intellectual manner, does not fail to remind us that Mr. Lincoln was a man of great distinction and been attained before his assassination. The illustrations are profuse and some of them appear for the first time in the biography of the Great Emmanuel's father. "Lincoln, the Leader of the Springfield Braces his intellectual development, from that of the average pioneer, upward and forward, to the striking power and force as to easily surpass in the logical presentation of his cases men," he added in an introduction to *higher education*. "The occasion upon which Lincoln displayed unusual power as an orator was the Bloomington meeting of the Republican party early in 1856. Never was an audience more completely electored by humane support than by former members of all political parties, had adopted the name Republican, co-founded of former members of all political parties, had adopted the name Republican, had launched a new political organization; but it contained many other members who had launched a new political organization. Those who had watched the proceedings were anxious and apprehensive with his acute political perceptions, realized the danger, perhaps more keenly than any other man in the country, and group of earnest, zealous, sincere men; willing to make tremendous sacrifices and unanimous decisions, most of them clung to their own theories and advocated their individualism and to defeat their common purpose. Therefore, when he arose in response to the unanimous vote of the Republican chairman of Springfield, his soul was flooded with a desire and a purpose to harmonize and amalgamate the parties. Those who were present say that at first he spoke slowly, but that his words grew in force and intensity until he swept the discordant souls of his audience, "from the chairs with pale faces and quivering lips and pressed unconscious" towards him." His influence was irresistible. "His powerful words, by the True Aaron Burd" Izmo, cloth illustrated, *n. $1.20*. New York, "and 'true' people seem to have the front of the stage just now. An unpleasant impression has prevailed in most of his books, but he has been fairly treated, that his services to his country were ignored and his hands were badly hurt, but unreasonably punished. Treachery to one country's far-surpasses the other, and it is not to be condained in any wise. There may be, however, certain circumstances that lead to deed and modify the bitter condensation." As death drew near, it is said his mind wandered. He battled his battles with Washington and his old comrades in arms. In a lucid imitation of a major-general, in which he had escaped to the "Vulture," and which he took up his battles with the epaulets and sword-knots washing Washington given him protection. "Let me die in my old American uniform," he said, "the uniform in which fought my battles. God forgave me he added, "for ever putting any other." THE MYSTERY OF MURRAY DAVENPORT. The Mystery of Murray Davenport. A Story of New York at the Present Day. By Robert Nelson Stephens. Illustrated & Co. $150. The scene is New York. The hero a disappointed man, but fortune has frowned upon him. Mr. Stephens is particular to seek the truth of his customs. The well-appointed flat, the boarding house, the kitchen, the waterside neighborhood are all recognizable. The personages are common-place, frequently met in large groups. "The mystery" seems to be something new in mysteries; and if we are willing to accept it, we will be willing to will not quarrel with the manner of its presentment. Everything is likely enough except the explainer that it should learn for himself. THE ARCHIERY OF SAMARA. The Archery of Samara. By Henry Illowiz. $1.50. Philadelphia: Henry T. Illowiz.
