The pure, the bright, the beautiful, That stirred our hearts in youth; The impulse to a wordless prayer, The dreams of love and truth, The longing after something lost, The spirits yearning cry, The striving after better hopes These things can never die. The timid hands stretched forth to aid A brother in his need, The kindly word in grief's dark hour. That proves a friend indeed; The plea of mercy softly breathed When justice threatened high, Too sorrow of a contrite heart These things shall never die. The memory of a clasping hand, The pressure of a kiss, And all the trifles sweet and frail That make up life's short bliss; If with a firm, unchanging faith. And holy trust and high, Those hands have clasped, those lips have met These things shall never die. 5l&CTuerind the bitter word That wounded as it fell; The chilling want of sympathy Wo feel but never tell; The hard repulse that chilled the heart Whose hopes were bounding high, In an unfading record kept These things shall never die. Let nothing pass, lor every nana Can find some work to do; Loso not a change to waken love, Be firm and just and true; Bo shall a light that cannot fade, Beam on 'thee from on high, And angel voices say to thee , These things, shall never die.

A Vanable f lece of Furniture. . - New York Star. ' "Speaking of valuable furniture," said exGov. John Underwood, of Kentucky, one day lately, "I place a higher value on the legs of the table from which I ate my first dinner after I was married than the Vander tHs do upon all the furniture they own." The assertion was taken with a grain of allowance. "How is that, Governor ?" asked one of the company. "Why, it is this way," and a mer ry twinkle appeared in his. eye. "When I was married it was a sort of runaway match. I was a poor, young civil engineer, and not a de sirable catch. I bad a suite of rooms, partially furnished, and these we reached in the forenoon. My wife wasn't hungry and did not want to go out for dinner. So I hustled around and got a loaf of bread and a pail of milk. There wasn't a table or desk in the room. I ate my din ner off- my drawing-board spread across my wife's knees." All Tarred With ttae Same Stick. Detroit Free Press. A passenger on a Brush street car was talking to a friend on the trip down town and all the other passen gers listened with attention, as the theme was one of general interest. His little boy, a small urchin of 3 years, J sat beside him with fond de light. , "There is no sense," the speaker was saying, "in the way people go through the world forgetting things that they ought to remember. They hurry out of the street cars, leaving valuable packages behind them, for get their opera glasses in the theater and their overcoats in hotels. Now, it's a very weak mind that cannot remember its own bundles. Here I have a package, an umbrella and an overcoat. t Jjould carry them from here to Kamchatka without forget ting them. This is my corner; good morning." He bolted out of the door without waiting for the car to stop, and the other passengers were musing over the truth and wisdom of what he said, when a small, wailing voice piped out: "My pa's gone off and forgot me." Then a bluff old man in the corner remarked: "We're all tarred with the same stick." And it was not until the return trip of the car that the man who never forgot anything recovered his aim all I.

COTTOJN MXCIIAXGJ& JUVJjJSS, Am Important Amendment tne Regulation Governing tne Classifica tion of cotton. f New York commercial jjuhouu. i V The Board of Managers or tna ! Cotton Exchange yesterday ordered l'itcd an amendment to the instruo- j tions of the Classification Committee " in classing inspected ootton for certi fication. In its amended form tho rule covering the matter provides that full grades are "Fair," "Mid dling Fair," "Good Middling," "Mid dling." "Low Middling," and "Good Ordinary." Half grades are those designated by the term "Strict." Q a arter grades are those designated by the word "Barely," meaning the mean point between the half grade and the next full grade above, -and "Fully," meaning the mean point be tween the half grade and the next full grade below. In classing stained ootton the same sub-division of grades into "full," "strict," "barely," and "fully," is to be followed as "in white ootton, and for grades of stained or tinged, bet ter than middling stained, the term "strict middling stained" may be used, meaning the mean point be tween strict middling stained and middling white, and "fully middling stained" meaning the mean point between strict middling stained and middling stained; also "good mid dling tinged," which shall be con sidered of the same value as mid dling white. The foregoing rule will be iu force on and after July 18. The extensive amendments to the by laws of the Exchange will be considered and acted on at a meet ing of the members of the Excnange which hag been called for noon to day. The discussion on the amend ments is expected to be very ani mated on account of the interest that is taken in the subject by the members. Waiting TUmy Years for Her Lover. Chicago Tribune. A romantic story is connected with the life of a woman who frequents the railroad station ' in Manchester, N. II. She is about 50 years old, but now bent with care, and her long handsome tresses streaked with gray; she always carries a traveling bag in hsr band, and as the crowds arrive she Beans each person eagerly, and then turns sadly away. The woman some thirty years ago was one of the belles of the city, courted by many. The favored lover, however, follow ed the sea. One day he left for a voyage. Tbeir troth had been plighted, and on his return he was to lead her to the altar, but the sailor lover never returned, and no message came to explain his absence. -The grief and disappointment caused the woman a long illness. When she recovered she insisted that her lover was true, and even if otherwise she would re main constant. For this reason she goes to the railroad station to greet bim borne, and almost every day for the last thirty years, winter and sum mer. spring and autumn, in fair wea ther and foul, she has been there on this errand. She is retiring in her disposition, and never frequents the waiting rooms or mingles with the crowd upon the platform. Ills Fatal Blemish. Chicago Tribune. He had taken a vacant seat in the oar by the side of a lovely young girl with whom be bad some ac quaintance already, and whom he was ardently desirous of impres.wg favorably. Under the spell of his brilliant conversational powers and the glance of his dark hazel eye the tell-tale blush had risen to her cheek 3od bore mute yet eloquent testimo ny to the progress the presumptuous youth was making in her good graces. Carelessly handing the train boy a quarter of a dollar and request ing the worth of it in caramels, he was about to resume the conversa tion that had been interrupted for the moment, when he saw the flash die out of the young lady's fape and a cold, indifferent, wearied look take its place, and he knew a blight had fallen forever on his buddrng hopes. On what trifles hang the destinies of two human lives! As the boxes of caramels were thrown by the train boy on the young man's lap they fell to the floor, and his fair companion had noted the reason. "I can never marry a man," she had said to herself, "as bow-legged as he is." No Wine. at the Sacrament. New York Sun. An interesting controversy has been created in Buffalo by tbe action of the Women's Christian Temperance Union in trying to have wine at tbe sacrament abolished. Tbe Union, believing- that there is danger of the 8 pre ad of intemperance at the very ajtar, propose to limit that danger by preventing tbe use of wine, and have appointed a -committee to interview all tbe clergymen of the city on the subject. Most of the ministers here have already been interviewed. The Rev. Mr. Wrigley, of St. Mary's Epis copal church, said: "The movement is a species of crankism and fanaticism with which the Episcopal Church will have no thing to do. Our Church believes in temperance in all things. The teach ings of the Bible and of the fathers go to show that the wine used at the Lord's Supper was fermented juice of the grape. We believe the Lord's practice is a safe one to follow. If one cannot use with prudence be can and should refrain from using it as a bev erage. I always dilute sacramental wine about 100 per cent." I believe it is generally so diluted." The Rev. S. S. Mitchell, o the First Presbyterian church, said the move ment was zeal begotten of ignorance, if not impertinence, and that the Sa viour knew what He was doing. The Rev. Mr. Hydeij of All Saints' church, said he wotfhj not dare use a substitute for fermeoted wine. The Rev. Mr. Egbert, of Calvary Delaware Ave. Presbyterian church, said he used fermented wine and should do so. Three former drunk ards who had drank it at the sacra ment told him it gave them no temp tation, One Baptist and two Presby terian ministers use unfermented wine, but almost all the other clergy men are for the real article.

By Teletfraph tn tbe Morning Star. Nashville. Tesn.. July 11. When the nortb-bouDd Louisville & Nashville train pulled lLto this city, at 10 88 this morning, a crowd of people surged around the car to see John L Sullivan, who was known to be on board. A rumor soon obtained cir culation that a requisition was in the hands of the police, several of whom had boards ed the car, and an officer reached over with handcuffs in his hand, and seizing the sludger's arms pulled him out into tbe aisle of the car. Sullivan resisted. Mike Mul doon, who occupied the same seat, put his head out of the window and cried to the crowd, "Gentlemen, I demand American protection- His patriotic wan was greeted wun a va riety of responses. Some cheered Sullivan, and begged him to "knock the copper out." Others cried, "Hurrah for the Nashville police," "Hit him with your cluo,' etc One youngster, who was hanging on tho cut side of tbe car window, ducked his head behind the sill and informed the crowd that "The cops have out their guns." After a brief struggle Sullivan was taken from the car and hustled to a carriage. In the struggle he drew back to knock down tbe policeman, when cruel ciacs siuck a pisioi in his face, and told him if he struck he ( ?Iacb) would kill him . The officers next crabbed unariey jonn- son, of Brooklyn, Sullivan's backer, who resisted vigorously, but Anally began to cry with pain. Purine all this scrimmage Muldoon sat quietly and was not disturbed. Mike Clea ry. Sullivan's other second, hid in the ex citement, and one other named Lynch jumped off tbe traiu. Only Johnson and Sullivan are detained, tnougn tne oi&ers are wanted The arrest was made bv authoritv of a telegram from Governor Lowry, of Missis sippi, to no JNasnvnie upier oi ronce. Nashtillb, Tenn , July 11. John L. Aullivan gave an impromptu exhibition in Nashville to-day. f Gov. Lowrey, of Mississippi, telegraphed Chief of Police Clack this: "Arrest John L Sullivan and his fighting party, and de liver to the sheriff hero, and I will py you $100 Tbo charge is the crime of prize fighting." . A largo number of people were congre ated at tbe Union depot this morning await ing the arrival at 10.33 of the "can non ball train," containing the redoubtable John and his party. As soon as the train was stopped it was boarded by Chief of Police Clack and members of the police force. Chief Clack, dressed in citizen's clothes, went up to one of tbe men and asked him where Sullivan was ? Tbe man replied that he was asleep, and could not be disturbed. Tbe officer told him wbo be was, and that he mast see Sullivan. The officer, followed by several of bis men, then went forward to the state room, in the front,where he found Sullivan, his trainer, Muldoon, and Charley John son, bis backer. Muldoon and Johnson were sitting, while Sullivan occupied the' ber.k tht ex eaded the length of the state -' room. The big ft How was lyiDg apparent" ly asleep. Tbe Chief asked tbe other men their names. One of them said his nume was Lynch, and the other called himself Robertson. There was no occasion to ask the name of the giant lying on the berth; anybody would have known that be was the great and only "John." Chief Clack said : "Gentlemen, I'm sorry to cisturb you, but I am Chief of Police of Nashville, and you must go with me." Jjhnson became spokes man, Muldoon remaining quiet. He inquired for what they were wanted. Clack said, I intend to arrest you." "On what char?e?" exclaimed Johnson. ' I have au thority for the arrest of your party and you must go with me,'' answered tbe chief. "I will not go without a warrant. You must show your authority. I em a citizen of New York, a tax payer, and I stand on my rights as an American citizen." The Chief insisted that he must go. and that it would bo beet to avoid trouble. You din't know who I am, nor any thing I have done," said Sullivan. "Iam on my way to New York on business " The Chief said he was satisfied he was one of the men bo waoted. By this time the cur filled with people, who were crowding for a look at the scene. The police attempted ineffectually to re move tberu. The object of tho prize fight ing party evidently was to palaver until lhe train pulled cut. The Chief told one of bis men to go forward and bold the train. Tbe officer returned in a few minutes and said that? the train could not beheld, as it was a U S mail train. The Chief then told him to uncouple the sleeping car. Ti c fon-goisi; conversation hd passed fthtle Sullivan was still Ijiug at full length either aeiep or pretending. Ha was drese ed iu n libt woolen shirt, open at the ihro.t, dik trousers, a blue belt and nippers. His hair was cut short and his ' 1 end was a day old lie did not lock as though he had recently been engaged in a urtzj fight; the only evi dence of the cor.flict were his swollen hands. The Chief told his friends that they must wke him up. They declined to do it, and the Cakf himself shook him slight ly. Sullivan raised himself up drow ily, and looked as if he was wondering what all thn row was about. The chief informed bim of his business, and asknd him to go with bim. Sullivan said he would not go. The chief said that be meant business, and intended to arrest him. "Well, what are you all eoing to do about it," fail Sullivan, addressing bis friends. They told him that he wag deal ing with the chief of police, and advised him cot to bit the officers. "No, 1 will not hit anybody, but I be damned if I will go," exclaimed Sullivan. Chief Cluck caught hini by the collar Several other officers crowded into the room and a des perate Btrugfcle ensued. Some of the officers had tbeir pistol thaD, and it looked like a general pistol as well as a pugilistic fight was about to begin. Three or four men caught Sullivan, bis friends offering bim no assistance, and no resistance to the officers. Sullivan gave an exhibition of his splendid strength, lie jerked and pulled, aud tried to push the officers off. ' Give me a show. I won't hurt you, but I won't go with you," exclaimed the Htrcules. Tbe officers held to him liiihough he was in the heat of passion an.-l looked as though be could have knocked any of them through the side of the car. If he had struck out some one would have received a long-to-be remembered blow, The 6iht of the clubs and pittols was probably what caused him to restrain bis evidently strong desire to give tbe officers an example of bis prowess as a hard-lutter. There were enough offi cers present, however, to overcome his giant strength. One of thorn slipped the nippers on one of his wrists and then on tbe other. Seeing ibat he was at this disadvantage Sullivan gave in. He waj pushed out of the car ae far as the ofllci rd could make him' move. Johnson was also handcuffed and taken out. In the exciument Muldoon was not arrested, but went on with Ciearyaud oth er friends of 8u!ltvn, Tbe officers forced their way through the crowd and placed their priwrers in cartitges. Three officers and one prisoner occupied each carriage. Th y drove through Church street and to the police station. L-iwyers were at once engaged and a writ of haboos corpus ap plied for. At 3 o'clock sharp, Judge McA.lister, of tho Circuit Court, made his appearance and proceedings wcro begun. Sullivan and Johnson, or L neb, as he gave his name, appeared with their lawyers, W. H Wash ington, W O. Brjsn, A . Caldwell and Thomas L Dodd. Sullivan was surly and very sour, but sat quietly, but never mov ing exeept to open several telegrams from his friends in New York and else where, offering aid. The city officials and the State of Mississippi were represented by Col. A. S. Colyer, Judge Abram Demosa and City Attorney Taylor. The defendant's petition for a writ of habeas corpus was read, stating that he had been arrested upon no process known to law and held without any charge against him and without a shadow of legal autho rity. He declared that he had committed no offence against the laws of the State of Tennessee, and was not subject to any legal restraint. He had com mitted no felony in this State or any other. The answer to this petition recited that Chief of Police Clack had positive information- that Sullivan did commit a crime in the State of Mississippi, and that he be lieved this crime was a penitentiary offense to the laws of Mississippi. Counsel dis cussed at length, and finally Judge Mc Alister rendered his decision. He was very emphatic in his opinion that to hold Sullivan longer would be a most arbitrary act on tbe part or tne court; tnat tbe offi cers had arrested him without warrant or authority; that- misdemeanors were not ex traditional by the rulings of tbe Tennessee courts and by precedents of Gov. Taylor, lie therefore ordered Sullivan released. There was an immense crowd present, and the decision of the judge was greeted with great applause. Sullivan was made a ; hero of, and tbo town was his until he left at 8 o'clock for the East. Coltjhbxts, Ohio, July 11 Governor Foraker received the following telegram to-day: "Jackson, Mw , Julj 11, 1889. Please diiect the Chief of Police at Cincinnati to arrest Jake Kilrain, Charles Mitchell and Pony Moore, and hold tbem until a requi sition can reach you. Charge, crime of priz; fighting in this State. "Robert Lowhbt, Governor." In reply Gov. Foraker repeated the telegram to Co). Pniip Deitsch, Chief of Polico of Cincinnati, and asked that official to act in accordance with Gov. Lowrey's request. Gov. Foraker also sent a tele gram to Gov. Lowrey, saying, 4 Your re quest has been complied with." Jackson, Mies, July 11. An act of 1882 imposed a penalty not txceeding (1.000 nor less than $500, or imprisonment for twelve months, or both, for prize fighting The party causing death is guilty of mur der; if mayhem, penalties are provided for. Tho aiders and abettors are subject to a fine of not less than $1,000, or jail for six months, or both. St. Louis, July 11 Kilrain and bis party arrived here this morning. They were " rather timid about Bhowiog them selves until apeured that the police were not looking for lhm. They seemed to be in dread of Gov. Lowrey, of Mississippi, even at this distance Kilrain seemed pretty badly used up, and not in very good spirits. Chicago, July 12 Prize fighter Sulli van ieiched Chicago at 11 o'clock to-day, having iiome from Iodianapolis over the Chicngi & Eastern Illinci-) railroad. He alighted from the train at 22nd street and disappeared. The police are not looking for bim. Charley Johnson, Sullivan's backer, wss also on the train and got off at tbe same time. Inquiry at sporting resorts down town was fruitless as far as securing any trace of them is concerned. It is sup posed they are tiiher in biding in thiB city or have takes an outgoing train for the E9t. St. Louis, July 12. H. A- Hindman, a New Orleans gentleman, who arrived in this city yesterday, has this to say about the reports that tbe sheriff of Hancock county, Mies , refused to proceed against the prizefighters: ' I witnessed tbe Sullivan -Kilrain prize fight, and know something about the steps taken to prevent the battie, or rather the steps that wero not taken. . The press dis patches stated that Gov. Lowrey sent the military down to Hancock county with in structions to act under, orders from the sheriff of that county in regard to stopping tbe Iteht. It was further stated tbat the sheriff refused to give any orders, and the military wcro therefore powerless. As I understand it, and I have the story on good authoritv, the sheriff fully intended to act according to instructions of tho Governor The people of Hiccock' county, however wanted to see the fight, and on Sunda.t night about 12 o'clock about 50 promineny citizens called on the sheriff and quietly in formed him tbat if he took any steps to pievent the mill he might consider bis po litical exissence at an end, They used forcible arguments and finally persuaded the sheriff to let the matter alone and allow the people to see the biggest fight of the ceatury."

O A Fact WORTH knowing is that blood dis eases which all other remedies fail to cure, yield to Ayers Sarsaparilla. x resn confirma tion of this state ment comes to hand daily. Even such deep-seated and stubborn com plaints as Kheu matism, Bheuma ktic Gtout, and the like, are thorough ly eradicated by -the use of this won derful alterative. Mrs. B. Irving Dodge, 110 West 125th street, New York, certifies : " About two years ago, after suffering for nearly two years from rheumatic tout, being able to walk only with great iscomfort, and having tried various remedies, including mineral waters, without relief, I saw by an advertise ment in a Chicago paper that a man had been relieved of this distressing com plaint, after long suffering, by taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I then decided to make a trial of this medicine, and took it regularly for eight months. -1 am pleased to say that it effected a com plete cure, and that I have since had no return of the disease." Mrs. L. A. Stark, Nashua, N. H., writes: -"One year ago I was taken ill with rheumatism, being confined to my house six months. I came out of the sickness very much debilitated, with no appetite, and my system disordered in every way. I commenced to use Ayer's Sarsaparilla and began to improve at once, gaining in strength and soon re- , covering my usual health. I cannot say too much in praise of this well-known medicine." " I have taken a great deal of medi cine, but nothing has done me so much good as Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

DISEASE," BUT ALSO DIABETES. ILurraoBO, Va., April 7, 1888. For a year I have been suffering with a form of Kidney Disease whloh my physician- Dr. J. A. H 111m an, thought was Diabetes, and advised the use of Otterbnrn Llthla and HuniMla Water. The quantity of urine passed was greatlv In ex cess oi tne natural secretion, and I lost .forty pounds of flesh In a few months. The use of the Otterburn Water oorreoted this excessive flow entirely In six weeks, and Iam again a well man. I tried many medicines without avail, and I attribute my cure of this troublesome and dangerous disease entirely to the use of the Otterburn Water. B. N. BLANTON. FEBSONS OFTEN ASK "WILL IT KSEPf" Amxia Couhtt, Va- Feb. 84, 1888. I hereby certify that two years ago I obtained some of the Water of the Otterburn Llthla and Magnesia Spring for my wife In a demijohn, and recently, whilst moving to another home, I found that some of tbe Water had been left in the demijohn. I poured it out and drank some of It, and found It to be as pure and nloe as when first taken from the Spring. G. K. CBADDOCK. IT CURBS RHEUMATIC GOUT. E. B. JxmBsoH. of Johnston, South Carolina, writes as f o lows of it : A lady here has been entirely relieved of a severe attack of Rheumatic Gout. She found such immediate relief she did not take any modlctne or any other remedy at all, and while on the sixth bottle stated tbat she had been entirely relieved and needed no more Water; her general health also being greatly lm proveu. B. B. JBFFBBSON. Manmboko, Va., March 17 1888. Whea l commenced tne use of the Otterburn Llthla and Magnesia Water, on the 28th of January last, I had no faith in any mineral water. I had been suffering tor over three years with a disease that was pronounced by a pro ml nenl physician of Richmond to be an affection of the Kidneys, after making a scientific test. I had only used the Water one week when I was entirely relieved of pain, whloh before had been constant and at times acute, and I have gained nineteen pounds In flesh, with a restora tion of strength and energy. I gave the Water a fair test, using no other water and taking no medicine. H. C. GREGORY. Richxoxd, Va., April 8t 1887. I have been suffering for years with a oompll oatlon of Liver and Kidney trouble, suffering great pain In the region of the kidneys; and hav ing my attention called to the Otterburn Llthla aud Magnesia Water. I commenced to use It, and never experienced snoh relief from any thing The very first half-gallon Increased the flow of urine and cleared it up. My appetite has been restored, ann I feel that I cannot commend the Water too highly. R. F. WALKBB. Amelia C. H.. Va.. December IS. IPftfi. I have been a Dyspeptlo for tbe past fifteen years; and lately have suffered with Derange ment of my Urinary Organs, evidenced by great difficulty In voiding the urine. About six months ago I oommenoed the use of the Otterburn Llthla and Magnesia Srrings Water, and since that time there baa been marked and gradual Improvement In my entire condition and state of health.
