Many new ideas and things are be ing given to the world, but the most nearly unthoughc of possibility we have sean mentioned, is glasses which will enable a person to see in the darkness as well a3 in the light. Mr. John S:iepard, of Sanford, X. C, writes In the "What Next?" column of the Penny Magazine that he believes it is not only possible but that before another century pisstss will be in common us?; and he wisely adds that he who shall first dk cver a process by which such glasses m . be made will have a fortune in it. There were fewer lj'nchings in this country daring the year 1899 than in any year for the past fifteen. Every good and true citizen deplores a lynching of any kind, and especially were some in this country most horrible. The whole number of lynchings for 189J-have been summed up to be 107. Of these 103 were in the South, one in Penn syluania and three in Kansas. Of the vicVims S4 were negroes and 23 white. It is to be hope! that whatever the provocation, tha uumb9r of lynchings will grow smaller every year until the regular course-of law shall finally deal with evey criminal. BY "GBOSVENOB. Governor Rollins, of New Hampshire, recently addressed the BostonjMirlfsters' Union, and made some very interesting remarks. He said thatwhile he is a mem ber of the Episcopal church,' he makes no pretentions at being a specially re ligious man ; but be gave some strong hints at the cause of what he regards the deciiue of religion in New England. He attributes the decline" of religion fiere to a loosening of religious faith ; the denying of .Jho Bible account of the creation ; and the repudiation of Jonah by some of the preachers has helped to loosen the faith. He further said that denominational discords carried into general disputes aid week-day business, have had much to do with the decline of religious fer vor which marked the Christianity of other times. Among other things which Governor Rollins mentioned is the entrance up oa the ministry of young men who are not especially fitted for it. He said : "The kind of men who go into the ministry is also a damage to the cause of religion. , Young men who have no special call to anything elsa drift into the pulpit, where they seek a chance to get an easy living. Of course, this does not apply to any of you gentlemen in this room, but the Protestant churches have much to learn from the Roman Catholics, who tane care to se lect the brightest young men for the priesthood, not allowing any drones to go to the theological seminiary. "There is too much attention to amusement in, the chnrcb too much candy-pulls, and too little straightfor ward gospel preached. There are too many endeayorers and too little en deavor among the young people. We must combat materialism, and this can hest be done by using the straight, old fashioned gospel." HOW'S THIS?

Some of the Revolutionists : Let us look back at a few of those who came into touch with Washington, and thus realize more than ever the moral poise ot the man. As the men next of rank to Washington, Congress appointed two soldiers of fortune, both of whom later tried to make'a wreck of Washing ton's career iu order that they them selves might climb higher a yery unsatisfactory and uncertain way of rising. One was Ge neral Charles Lee, a man who had been eveiy where, done every thing, and who seeirs to have entered upon the Amrican struggle from pure ly professional motives. Prior to the retreat across New Jersey, he lost his balance by writing letters of undis guised hostility regarding Washington, and then he lost his liberty by being foolhardy in the neighborhood of the foe. He is not above well-authenticated suspicion of trying to tell the British how fo subdue America. Alter his release Washington magnanimous- ly aided him until his suspicious behav ior at the battle of Monmouth, when there were short, sharp words and after wards a court martial. The other was General Horatio Gates, to whom Burgoyne surrendered in the northern campaign a truculent, inso lent man, whose jealousy prompted him to omit all mention of Arnold's bravery at Bemis' Heights -and Sara toga, and whose jealously also caused him to ignore his commander-in-chief and report to Congress direct. Yet the campaign had been p'anned by Wash ington, prepared by General Schuyler, fought by Arnold, and its laurels snatched by Gates, who being too drunk to command, was yet not'drunk enough to ba beyond ihe power ot do ing harm. Gates subsequently made a fail uie of the Southern campaign and retired to a petulant private life. Then there was Ethan Allen, a rare old fighter an outlaw at that and so ferociously independent that most of his work tendetLlo undo the Revolu tion rather than strenghthen It ; for he had the greatest love of action, but with himself as leader. He would rather go it alone, and did, than go under others. His forte was an irrita ting but uneuduring guerilla war fare. Out of such material were we expect ed to deyelop victory ? - Worst of ail, yet probably the most wronged of all, was Benedict Arnold.

In those black hours at west point, the most hopeless of all when Washington knew not what officer might be implicated in the treason he doubted man and: said, "whom can we trust now" yet note the self control, the tender pity, the keen judgment, all displayed in one hour so clearly that we wonder if we ever dimly comprehend him, for at -this moment, when everything seemed slip ping from beneath his feet he remem bered the distress of Arno!d,s aban doned Wife and yisited her with words of comfort and cheer.

And I won Id ad vise all young men who have reputa- to make or characters tp sustain to avoid the game. If they can "hold their own and have a desire to find all the flaws in alleged friends, why, my brethern, I say play poker. The lovely game of draw shows up a man. It strikes right at the heart and brain, his liver and bowels. One who can go through a season without reproach is a grabble to one,s soul with hooks of the finest Harveyized steel as big as bridge cables. Never let him get away, for he is about the scarcest carticle in the universe. No man can play poker in reason or with reason unless he is born with a gold spoon in his mouth and every thing turns to diamonds. Some of the closest friends I ever had were ex posed at the poker table, and we do not associate now. I found out more about them in six months at that game than 40 years ol intimate aquaintance would have taught me in any other line of "friendship." Poker costs a young man valuable time, lots of mon ey and stacks of friends. I use the word- "friends" in a general sense, which means such chaps as a young fellow "runs with." One real friend is as much as a man can expect. AH the others try to "do" him. I have been throtigb the poker mill. When my table -was ready and the cards were ready, the chips ready, the rum readv, the cigars ready and your humble servant was ready to lose and be banker, my door bell rang at all hours, and my "friends' were numer ous. They would willingly sit Up with me all night and sometimes remain to breakfast. You never saw so sacrific ing a lot of fine fellows sacrificing me One night a good many years ago I sit up late thinking about ,the poker business. It was head hard thinking too I had been lifted out by "friends" hung op by "friends" and had "friends" to come up when in my debt to 'play it off." A case ot beer in a sitting was nothing. A box of cigars was merely .a puff. I rage now when I think of what was wasted ' on the canai Fe " that "worked" me. Reason returned. I tore up every card I hadcast out my chips and said, "No more poker," From that day to this I have-not touched a card. I am happy in forgetting nightmare of draw. But no one ot the old gang comes near me now. Nothing is to be made at my table. I cannot be skinned therefore they have no oise for me. They have found pastures new. A few old friends who did not come around when we had poker have come back to visit me since I had the sense to quit it. They are not in the make, as the phrase goes. They eome to talk and swap lies and have a sensible, quit possiby, ecandalfzing time. I am an older man than you think, but there are other old fools who passed the meridian before they learned that they couldn't play poker. If I could have won every night, I wouldn't haye cared FARMER'S SAFE HELD yOO IN CASH. Accumulates of .1 Life Tims Found hy the Widow cf Edward Elliott Who Recently Died at 81.

"Of all relations among individuals, in all combinations which life offers in this world, there its none that is more wonderful than motherhood. And fatherhood comes next," writes Barnette Brown in the February Ladies Home Journal. "The mother may be reprsent ed as a dove, with love and grn'le tare brooding over tbe ycung, the father as an eagle, strong, eager to defend and help. TI19 mother should be an embodi ment ol sweetness and gentleness, the father a citadel of strength. A father then to avoid his failures must be of fine, large quality, strong, sane and loving, a self forgetful pleasant guide a chum for his boys, a loyer for his girls, a comprehending husband, a comfortable man. With a father like this a mother such as we have some times seen and cften dreamed of tbe path way of childhood becomes not one of thorns, but on 3 to ba sprinkled with flowers, and life is changed from a dreary round of mistakes and failures into a comfortable, successful and beau tiiul journey, brightened by cheerful ness, gladdened by comradeship, sweet ened by love,and enjoyed alme by moter, father, ana children."

A rusty old safe in a lonely three room farm house on the Mayson and Turner's ferry road has been huggrng thousands of dollars in greenbacks and gold within its iron bosom for more than half a century. Yesterday morn ing tbe doors of the safe were swung back on the creauing hinges and the horde of wealth was exposed for the first time to the wondering gaze of the heirs to the fortune. Later it 'was re moved in bags to the big safety vaults cf the Neal Loan and Banking com pany, where thieves do not break through and steal. The money, nearly $7,000, is the ac cumulation of years of honest toil and frugal living by Edward Elliott, who died in December at the rtpe old age of 81 years. He was a farmer and owned two hundred acres ot rich land in the yicinity ol the city dumping grounds two miles and a half fro'm the union depot. He inherited tholand from his father and lived in the little farm house close to the public road since his boy hood davs. MRS. ELLIOTT SURPRISED. His wife, who survives him, and who is principal heir to the fortune, perhaps is 79 years of age. Since the death of her husband she has lived almost alone in tbe cottage with the iron safe and its preeious contents, her only compan ion being a granddaughter 1G years of age. She did not Know until yesterday that the safe held the big store of gold, though she knew her husband had sav ed money during his lifetime. On tbe adyice of her lawyer, Mr. Je omS McAfee, who feared that the cin rent rumors of the deceased farmer's sayings might tempt evil persons to crime in search of the wealth, she sent for an official of the bank yesterday and in the presence of the attorney, head book-keeper Baker, of the bank, and several relatives opened the safe, the combination of which had bean left to her by her husband before 1m death. GOLD IN ABUNDANCE. The sight which met the ej-es of the party when the doors creaked back was startling. Gold, rich yellow pelces of it, filled every drawer. There was enough to delight the soul of any gloating jniser and cause him to run his fingers through the pile and whisper, "Ha, ha, my pretty boys, and you aremine, mine, mine I" Gaspard would have revelled in it. Greenbacks were piled in the pigeon holes. Silver peices were in a box in the large compartment of the safe. "I didn't dream there wa3 that much money in there," was Mrs. Elliott's comment. The little hand satchel which had been brought out by the bank official in which to convey the money to bank was discarded at the sight ot the wealth and bags were procured. The gold and silver were counted carefully and raked into the sacks. When the count of the greenbacks began it was discovered that they wefe stuck together from ag. Papers in the safe showed that some of the money had been lying there since the early fifties. The atmosphere of the safe was impregnated with veritable money musk. When the attorney and tbe bank of ficial bad reached tbe bank and the wealth was safely stored ia the yaults they heaved a sigh ot relief, glad to be rid of tbe heavy burden and to see it safe within the steel walls. The members of the Elliott familly are glad, too, that the fortune was found ana deposited before robbers learned of its existence. There are several other relatives besides the wife and grand daughter in the city who may come in for a share of the money at the proper time. WAS A RESPECTED FARMER. Mr. Elliott, who saved the money, was well known in the district in which he liyed as a frugal farmer, who cared nothing for the luxuries of life. He dressed in the simple fashion of farmers and worked about the place in the ordinary capacity of a farm hand for the greater portion of his life. Even when he had reached an. advanced age of life and up to a short time before his death his tall, bent figure in the fields as he sowed his crops, was a fain ilar eight to the neighbors. He came to town often and made tome of the money trading. The sfe in which the money was stored has been a part of the household furniture in the little cottage since the house was built long before the war. It rested in a corner of a back room and has always been kept well covered with a cloth. The neighbors who have visited the place for years did not know of Us existence. Attorney McAlea did not know of it until he was told several days ago, though h3 has known the family intimately for many years. The rilicials of tbe bar.k where the money was deposited reitised to give any information whatever on the sub ject of the queer deposit. They ad hered t.trickly to the tenets of bank ing houses in regard to their depositors but it is known that tbe stlrn stated is correct.

On her recent marriage to Baron tie Cederstrom.Putti left orders that her mail should all be forwarded to the Cannes post-olli-je. On her arrival there, sdie went to the post-oHAac and asked if ttieie wcra any letier3 or the Baroness Adelina de Cederstrom Patti. "Lots of them." "Then give them to me." "Have you any oi l letter by which J. ca'i identify you?" "No, I have nothing but ray visit ing card. Here it is?' "O, that's not enough, madam ; and one can get visiting cards of other peo ple. If you want your mail, you will have to give me a better proof of your identity than that." A brilliant idea tneu struck Madame Patti. She began to sing.. A touch ing song sue chose, the one beginning, "A voice loving and lender," and nev er did she put more heart into the melody. And marvelous was the change as the brilliant music broke through the intense silence. In a few minutes the quiet post-office was filled with people", and hardly had the singer concluded the first lines of the ballad when an old clerk came forward and said, trembling with excitement: "It's Patti, Patti ! There's no one but Ade lina Patti who could sing like that." 'Well, are you sa tisfied now ?" asked the 'singer of the official who doubted her identity. Th3 only reply he m idd was to go to the drawer and hand her the pile of letters. TRAIN l.t; NOKTH. JT si- i)- .4 is '-- i.ll QM A M. ' V. M. f.v. Florence !l 1'. 7 4"i Lv.
