THE UNCONDITIONAL REPEAL
At Last Pause.
v After a long and weary fight the
unconditional repeal of the Sherman
selver bill I has passed the Senate
The vote was taken Monday evening
1. rcii1tA4 in n victo-
ry by 43 io 32. Senator Sherman
voted for repeal and Senator Vance
atrainst it. Trie bill will now go
back to . the House of Representa
tives where it will probably be con
firmed in short order.
Now that this great financial ques
tion will be settled we trust that
there has been less reason to com
plain of close money not that we
think the Sherman bill had any real
bearing upon the matter, we are fully
persuaded that it was but an imagi
nary scare. The farmers have mon
ey, more than they have had for
vpars before, but owins to this and
other causes they have been hoard
ing it up at home, fearing that should
they spend that which they had no
more woalrjbe forthcoming to take
its place. This hoarding of small
amounts all over the country has
. 1 nil C rA rril1ainn
and as a consequence, merchants
have failed, Banks have closed their
doors, and large Railroad corpora
tions have suspended operations,
the people were persuaded that all
inis calamity was uruugui auuui uy
the Sherman bill, and demanded its
repeal. It has been repealed, now
lets go ahead and let each man pay
every cent he can on his just debts
and we will soon foreet there was
ever such a thing as a money panic,
WHAT MAY WE EXPECT NEXT.
We have heard of men killing each
other for money, for revenge, in a fit
of passion and under a hundred oth
er circumstances, but never before
can we recall an instance where
man was murdered in cold blood
simply because he would not give
the murderer an office,! This last
atrocity was left for that. progressive
western . town, Chicago. Judge
Lynch may be a little quick in ren
dering his decisions, but under some
circumstances the quicker the step
the better. -, If public men are to be
subjected to such danger, where" are
we going to find good men willing to
incur such a risk ? Mayor Harrison
was a man respected even by his poli
tical opponents and his untimely tak
ing off is a shock alike to lriend and
toe. ' .
THE PEOPLE'S PARTY IN VIRGINIA
Next Tuesday will witness a trial
of strength between the Democrats
and People's party of Virginia. This
will be about the first time 'that the
People's party have entered the race
in the South, With any' real prospect
of success. It is already certain that
they will elect a number of members
of the Legislature, how many no one
can tell. Their chance to elect
Governor is not very good but the
race will be close enough to make it
interesting to watch. Let it turn out
as it will the cause of the people wi

Milton.
John Milton, the most distinguished
of English poets, and one whose
exertions in the cause of civil and re
ligious liberty must ever entitle him
to the grateful regards of his country-
en, was born in Breda street,
December 9th, . 1608. His birth
place was almost beneath the bells of
Bow church, within hearing of the
war of cheapside, near the Mermaid
tavern, the resort of the Elizabethan
wits and not far from old St. Paul's
and the tower.
His father, at an early age had
been disinherited for abandoning the
Catholic faith, and though a serious
man and inclined to puritanical habits
he had cultivated literature, and was
so-skilled in music that he holds a
respectable rank among the contem
porary composers of songs and
psalms. Thus young Milton not
only received in boyhood the devout
and dutiful training of a Puritan fam
ily, but was. also taught the art and
science of music, for which nature
had granted him the ear and the pas
sion, and became an accomplished
organist.
His father secured for him the
best educational advantages, sending
him first to St. Paul's school and af
terwards to Christ's college, Cam
bridge, and he showed himself to be
"severely and constantly studious."
Though destined from childhood to
the church, he resolved early in his
university career upon a life of con
tinued study and no professional aim
whatever, but with a view to the ul
timate display of his powers in au
thorship. In 1638 Milton left England for
the purpose of completing his educa
tion by, foreign travel and visited
many places on the continent. He
remained abroad about fifteen months
and on his return, did not resume his
residence with his father, but, feeling
that he must adopt some way of
earmng his bread by his own exer
Hons, he hired a house in St. Bride's
church-yard, and opened a school
which was so successful that he
shortly afterwards removed to
house nearer the business part 6f the
city, tie married a daughter of Mr,
Powell, a firm Royalist, and at first
this marriage seemed very inauspi
cious, for either influenced by family
considerations, or from naught of
congeniality in sentiments and feel
ing, they had only been married a
month when his wife deserted him,
and returned to her friends. She
made no reply to his repeated letters,
wnicn so incensed him that he pub
lished several pieces on the subject
of divorce. He had proceeded to
pay his addresses to another lady
when his wife made him a visit and
on her knees implored pardon and
reconciliation, This waked his ten
derest feelings and he received her
with kindness to his bosom.
After his sight failed him his wife,
daughters and other persons were at
ainerent times employed to read and
write for him.
He attended no church, belonged
to no religious communion, and nev
er had social prayers in his family.
He died in London, November 8th,
IC-74;
Milton s tame rests chiefly on his
poetry. By those who are accus
tomed to speak of poetry as light
reading, Milton's eminence in this
sphere may be considered only ss
giving him a high rank among the
contributors to public - amusement,
but Milton did not think so. Of all
God's gifts of intellect he esteemed
poetical genius the most transcendent.
He esteemed it in himself as a kind
of inspiration ; and wrote with some
thing of the conscious., dignity of a
prophet.
Milton is thought of as the author
of " Paradise Lost and Paradise
Regained," while his other works are
neglected by many through ignor
ance rather than naut of interest in
the writings themselves. As an epic
poet he has no rival in the grandeur
of his subject and the power of his
style.

The toTer Leap.
jn Virginia, about twelve miles
,above the city of Lynchburg, pro-
fr0m the surface of the water. - The
ground irom the summit of the clifl
slopes gently to the edge of the rock.
The rock is generally known as "The
Lovers' Leap." The story of this
rock is a sad one and runs as follows :
"Many j-ears ago there lived sev
eral miles back of this rock an old
farmer who had three sons and only
one daughter, in whom he placed all
his hopes and pride. He had always
been a kind and and an indulgent
father, and left nothing undone which
he thought would contribute to her
happiness. She was well educated
and was fitted to become any man's
wife. Soon her father saw that he
was about to have a rival in his
daughter's affections, and that too in
the shape, of a poor country lad,
whose only recommendation was his
noble heart and generous nature. In
vain he pointed out to his daughter
the folly of marrying this poor young
man, when she could pick her choice
from the whole country. At length
he became so enraged that he for
bade the lover to enter his home
again. She, forgetful of all her fath
er's past kindness, and nnmindful of
his advice, determined to marry her
lover at all hazards. The lovers met
clandestimely and consacted a plan
to elope. A certain night was agreed
on, in which she was to slip in the
dead of night from the house and
meet him .at the gate, where he was
to wait with his horse, for he had
only one. The evening in which she
was to leave the home of her child
hood, the home that had nursed her
from infant up, was the scene of a
dreadful storm. Nature seemed to
be angry with herself. The winds
howled m the greatest fury and then
died away in piteous moans, while
the rain poured down in torrents.
Around the hearthstone of the old
old farmer, all the faces were bright
and cheerful save that of the daugh
ter's. Soon the rest of the family re
tired and left father and daughter
alone, bhe came and clasping him
around the neck sobbed, "Father, if
you were to lose me would you care
much ?" He, thinking she was
frightened by the storm, replied,

Occasionally the cracking of a limb
would tell them what a rough night
it was. "Hark !" cries the girl in
tones of affright, "I hear the sound
of approaching hoofs !". Ere long
they became painfully distinct. "It
is father and my brothers." exclaimed
the girl in tons of agony. "Never

turn into the by-path and mislead
them." He turned into a path lead

A LANSINGBURG MIRACLE, j
A RAILWAY HAD TALKS.
Literally Half Dead, His Case Pronounced
Hopeless by Prominent Physicians, i
A Story of Surpassing Inter- j
est Verified under oath. j
(From Troy, N. Y., Times.)- i
I am the most conservative repor
ter on the staff. I despise the chim
erical, I court the real. I burrow in
facts. I am from Lansingburg. We t
don't often get a good thing from !
there, but here is one. F. C. Kim-;
ball last night gave me the following : :
"I am a plain straightforward man.
Originally from Lansingburg, where '
now reside my mother, brother and !
sister, beveral years ago I moved i
to Rochester. There I was in the
employ of the Erie Railroad as yard
and freight superintendent. After a
strain to my back, caused bv heavy
lftmg, three years ago, I developed
so-called rheumatism. It was an in
creasing thing for two years at
times worse, again better. I worked
intermittently. If I would shut my
eyes I would fall down. My feet and
egs soon lost feeling were numb.
This extended to my stomach and at
times to my hands. Doctors Lee
and Spencer of Rochester finally pro
nounced my case progressive locomo
tor ataxia, said it was incurable, and
that they could only ease my suffer
ings, and so I lay. Up to this time
had been sick neariy two years.
Before this and for several months I
was confined to my bed. " Pins stuck
into my limbs the whole length gave
me no feeling whatever ; my legs
seemed wooden. To pound them
gave of a noise like wood. So I say,
as I lay there I was absolutely one-
half dead dead from the waist down.
There was one word written in larsre
characters all over that sick room
C-L-A-Y. Life departed from my
limbs, that word best expressed what
was lelt. on, ol course, have read
of John Marshall. The reporter, in
describing, him described me exactly.
I sent for the remedy which cured
him for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, to
Schenectady, N. Y., and tried them.
took them irregularly for two
months. They didn't seem to helo.
All of a sudden one morning one of
my legs began to prickle seemed as
though rubbed with nettles. Then,
perhaps you think I did not investi
gate that medicine. I began to mend
fast ; got some circulation, got control
of my bowels and after a few weeks
got out of my bed and tried to stand.
At last I fetched it. Could walk
now can run. And Pink Pills cured
me. The doators said I couldn't be
cured, but I am. What I am now
telling you is merely a reiteration of
what I long ago wrote to the Dr.
Williams' Medicine Company at
Schenectady, and my affidavit to the
same is now in their hands. . Here
also is a letter which mv mother
wrote to them and to which she has
made affidavit, as you see."
186 2d Ave., Lansingburg, N. Y,
Dear Sirs : My son Fred has
just written you a letter concerning
himself to which I desire to add a
few words in entire coroboration of
all he has said. He has told you of
his agony and his cure. The remem
brance of the whole thing makes me
shudder as I think of it. It is all too
wonderful for me. I was resigned to
his fate. Now as I look at him walk
ing about and feeling well, with his
old health and ambition returned, it
does seem that he has been born
again and rescued from death for a
tact. Could I, therefore, say too
much to you of thanks in the fullness
of ray gratitude ? Can I well cease
blessing you ? Yet the intensity of
my feelings make my words of
thanksgiving to you seem but empty
indeed ; for the lost is found, and he
that was dead is alive again.
" Yours,
Harriet J. Kimball.
Sworn and subscribed before me
this 5th day of April, 1893.
M. L. Fancher,
Notary Public.
Mrs. Kimball said : "While I be
lieve in answers to prayer and prayed
earnestly for his recovery, for I am a
Christian woman, and believe my
prayers were answered, I do think
that Pink Pills were the means the
Lord used to effect my son's cure I
want you to meet my daughter, Mrs.
G. H. Morrison, with whom we are
living here, and the Rev.' George
Fairlee, pastor of Westminster
church, who lives with us and see
what they have to say." So Mrs.
Kimball brought them in, and while
the story as told was most complete
and could be added to by nothing
they might say, yet the reporter
heard from the lips of the sister and
their pastor, coroborative words, of
all that has been said. The reporter
also ran accross the son-in-law, Mr.
G. H. Morrison, cashier of the Nation
al Bank of Troy, and spoke to him
of Mr. Kimball. He is a busy man
and though he could only be detained
for a moment, he said: "I know
nothing of the case technically. He
says he was cured by Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, and I ' think that is about
the size of it."
Mr. William H. Flandreau, the
druggist at 814 River St, Troy, said:
"It is the most wonderful cure from
locomotor ataxia a so-called incura
ble disease. Mr. Kimball tells me
he owes his recovery to Pink Pills
entirely and I have every reason to
believe him."
Pink Pills restore pale people and
sallow complexions to the glow of
health, and are a specific for all the
troubles peculiar to the female sex,
while in the case of men they, effect a
radical cure in all cases arising-from
mental worry, overwork or excesses
of whatever nature."
The Pills are manufactured by the
Dr. Williams' -Medicine Company,
Schenectady, N. Y., and Brock ville,
Ont, and are sold in boxes (never in
loose form or by the dozen or hun
dred and the public are cautioned
against numerous imitations sold in
this shape) at 50 cents a. box, or six
boxes for $2.50, and may be had of
all druggists or direct by mail from

He was ashamed of the shot as soon

when he discovered that it did not take
effect. Then he remained on guard
over both houses, entertaining officers

Later in the day he watched carefully

"Oh, Zenas!'"exclaimed Mrs. Bortley,
as her husband 'met her at the gate.
"The greatest news! I bought an even

Zenas. lie glanced over the story, and
as he read his wife exclaimed:
"Now what do you think?"
"I think," said Zenas, "that our
neighbor will eall on us to-day." Then
he dashed into the house, showed the
newspaper to hi3 hidden guest, hurried
downstairs and over the fence, rang the
"DID I DO A iJ TUAT7" '
bell, and broke the news as gently aa
possible to his wondering neighbor.
"You will excuse me, I trust, madam,
if I present you to my wife when you
come over? She is the head of the fam
ily when she is at home." .
"I shall do myself the honor to tell
Mrs. Bortley how loyal 'a neighbor, how
brave a soul and how noble a man her
husband is," said Mrs. Maythem,' "andl
shall beg her to let me be her husband's
devoted friend and hers forever."

FIFTY THOUSAND RAGPICKERS.
The Army ot People Who Explore th
Rnbbisb ou Paris Streets.
The wealth of Paris is so boundless
that the rubbish and refuse of the city
are worth millions, says" a writer in
Harper's Magazine. - There ". are more
than fifty thousand persons who earn a
living by picking up what others throw
away. Twenty thousand women and
children exist by sifting and sorting' the
gatherings of the pickers, who collect
every day in the year about twelve hun
dred tons of merchandise, which they
sell to the wholesale ragdealers for
some seventy thousand francs. At
night you see men with baskets strapped
on their backs, a lantern in one hand
and in the other a stick with an iron
hook on the end. They walk along rap
idly,' their ej'es fixed on the ground,
over which the lantern flings a sheet of
light, and whatever they find in the
w ay ; of paper, rags, bones, grease,
metal, etc, they stow away in their
baskets. In the morning, in front cf
each house, you .see men, women and
children, sifting the dust-bins before
they are empiied into the scavengers
carts. At. various hours of the day you
may remark isolated ragpickers, who
seem, to work with less method than
the others and with a more independent
air. The night pickers are generally
novices; men who, having been, thrown
out of work, are obliged to hunt for
their living like the wild beasts. The
morning pickers are experienced and
regular workers, who pay for the
privilege of sifting the dust-bins of a
certain number of houses and of trad
ing with the results. The rest, the
majority, are the coureurs, the runners,
who exercise their profession freely
and without control, working when
they please and loafing when they
please. They are the philosophers and
adventurers of the profession, and their
chief object is to enjoy life and medi
tate upon its problems. "

recover, I had the worst attack of my old trouble 1 ever experienced. At
the first of 'the fever, my mother gave me AYER'S Pills, my doctor
recommending them as leing better than anything he could prepare.
I continued taking these Tills, and so great was the benefit derived that
during nearly thirty years I have had but one attack of my former
trouble which yielded readily to the same remedy."
'Tor a long time I was a sufferer from stomach, liver, and kidney
troubles, experiencing much difficulty in digestion, with severe pains in
the lumbar region and other parts of the body. Having tried a variety
of remedies, including warm baths, with 'only temporary relief, about
three months ago I began the use of AYER'S mils, and already my
health is so much improved that I gladly testify to the superior merits of
this medicine." Manoel Jorge Pereika, Oporto, Portugal. v
