“Kathleen Mavourneen.”
"The death of poor Crouch,” says an‘,
English correspondent of the “The
Baltimore Sun,” brings to mind a
pathetic incident which occurred at one
of- Mlle. Titiens’s concerts in the Opera
House at New York in 1876. The fa-
mous singer, as an encore, sang ‘Kath-
leeen Mavourneen,’ the only time she
did so whilein tie States. The song
excited a furore of applause, and on
Mlle Titiens’s leaving the stage she
was informed that a man supposed
to be a lunatic was fizhting his way over
the barriers from the pit to‘ the stage,
, determined to speak to the singer.
The prima donna told the authorities
to let him come to her. On entering
the man burst into tears, sobbing out:
‘Oh Mlle. Titieus, 'I never before heard
my song as you b"? jist snag it.’
‘Your song,’ was the astonished reply;
.‘why you are not Crouch, surely ?' ‘I
am, indeed,’ replied the composer, even
thenan old'lnan ‘and I felt I must
thank you myself.’ _ It was, indeed, the
unlucky Grouch, whn'hsd scraped to-
gether the price of a pit seat, -little
dreaming that his own now world-fa-
mous song would be the most raptur-
ously applauded item of the night.”
Webster’s Views.
Said Diniel Webster on the subject
of debasing our moneystandard~z I
“Sir, the very man of all others who
has the deepest interest in a sound cur-
rency, who where most by mischievous
legislation in money matters, is the man
who earns his daily bread by his daily
toil. A depreciated currency, sudden
changes of prices, paper money falling
~between morning and noon and falling
still lower between noon and night—the
things constitute the very harvest time
of speculators and of the whole race of
, those who are at Once idle and crafty,
and of that other race, too, the Cati-
lines of all times, marked so as to be,
known forever, by one stroke of the
historian’s pen, {those greedy of other
men’s property and prodigal of their
own’. ‘ _ ‘
"Capitalists, too, may outlive such
times; they may either prey on the
earnings of labor by their per cent,
or they may hoard. But-the laboring
man, what can he hoard? Preyiug
on nobody, he becomes the prey of all.
His property is in his hands. His reli.
once, his fund, his productive freehold,
hiaall, is his labor. Whether he works
on his own small capital or another’s,
his living is still earned by his'industry;
and .when the money of "the country be-
comes depreciated and'debase 6., whether
it be adulterrlted coin or paper, with
out creditiltlfiadt~ industry is robbed of
its reward. He then labors foes cOun-
‘ try Whose laws cheat him out of his
bread. '
“I wouldfisa‘y to every owner of every
quarter section of land in the West, I
would say to every man in the East who
follows his own plow. and to every me-
chanic, artisan and laborer in every
city in the country—I would say to every
man, everywhere, who wishes by honest
means to gain an honest living: “Be-
ware of ,wolves in sheep’s clothing.
Whoever attempts, under whatever
popular cry, to shake the stability of
the public currency, bring on distress
in money matters and drive the country
into the the use of depreciated money,
. . stabs your interest and your happiness
' to the heart.”

TAKEN AT HER WORD.
A Bank President’s Wife'”Loses Fifty
. Thousand Dollars.
A dispatch .from" Wellfleet, N eb.‘ , to
the Chicago Inter-Ocean has the lot
lowing: Mrs. Jane Houston, a bank
president’s wife, lost her diamonds and
other' jewelry last night, valued at 850-,

~ Mert Green, whom the authorities
were shadowing as a dangerous sus‘
pect, dropped into the Free Methodist
revival last night just in time to hear
Mrs. Houston explaining in ‘her “expe-
diamonds and other jewelry, since she
She
said she left all of her finery on her
dresser when she left the House. Green
left the church, broke into the Houston
residence, and found that she had told
the truth. He took everything in sight
and left a note saying he was glad he
could remove temptation from the-
good woman.
Accurate Information,
Farmer stopped in front of Michigan
City’s electric light plant and asked a
bystander: ‘ - ,
“What is that air buildin’, a fac-
tory?” '
“N o, a plant,” came the answer.
“What do they raise there?”
' “Currents,” replied the quick witted
bystander. - -
“.What are they worth a bushel?"
“We sell them by the shock.” ' '
Farmer pulled his beard, scratched
his head, and drove down town to mar-
ket his vegetables.—Indianapolis Sun.
King Leopold in flood andSinock.
King Leopold, of Belgium, when in
London recently, clad in a hooded blue
serge smock, went sightseeing in the .un-
derground city. » He went beneath the
bed of the Thames. rode on the electric
railway to the city and of the tunnel
and back again to inspect the working
faces below Stamford street. It is said
that the King has in contemplation a
similar railway in Antwerp.

Madame Patti the Second.
Madame Adelina Patti has been made
a member of the Royal Academy at
Bologna. This distinction is more flat-
tering from its having been only once
before accorded to a lyric artist.
. The Need 'of' Sleep.
There may be something in the con
tention that a greater amount of sleep
is required by people newaday-s—
especially brain workers—than was
formerly the case. The apostles of the
new belief affirm that the adage con- ‘
cerning the health, wealth and Wisdom
of the early riser needs changing. The
advice of that old saw was concocted,
they say, in days, when there were no
express trains, no telegraphs, no teleJ
phones, no hurry. . ,Wheré is the use of
telling people to get up early whose
brains are racked by anxiety .and
worry, and who are really being
burned up by the ever-increasing rate
at which things have to be done? The
proper thing to say to them is to get
as much sleep as they possibly can on
every possible occasion. But the worst
of the advanced creed is that it will
be taken advantage of by the lazy and
brainless as an excuse for an inactivity
for which they have no manner of war-
rant, either in the development of their
brains or the delicate adjustment .of
their nervous system.
A New Model Fish Story. ;
Thirty-nine years ago a lad named
Edwards started out from his home in
3Winchester, Ky., to go fishing. Last
week he came back, with the same fish-
pole over his shoulder. that he started
out with; but without any fish. He had
never been seen or heard of by his
friends during the interval.
A few years ago nearly all newspapers
published, at this season, recipes for summer
complaints. Now such items are seldom
met with. Publishers have learned that
there is nothing quite as good as Chamber-
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
for'these diseases and as it is in general use
everywhere they have quit publishing these
recipes. No one havin a bottle of this\
remedy in the house nee fear an attack of
bowel complaint. It can always be depended
upon and is pleasant and safe. For sale by
