They’ll meet no more at Richmond— the men who fought with Lee Who met the marching legions of Sher- man to the sea ; Who blazed the way with “Stonewsll,” |. and carved their glorious names On the battlefields of Richmond of “Richmond on the James.” They'll meet no more at Richmond: .. their brows .are bowed = and white : And faint the camwfires flicker from the valleys of the night ; And “Farewell” echoes ¢ aoe the lines where flashed their crimson blades, And the shadows deepen, deepen ‘round the boys:of the brigades. ’ They'll meet no more ‘at Richmond, where every battle-clod In red memorial roses send messages to God ; Where brave and bright they taced the fight where Lee and Jack- son led, And left the dim vales glorious with the ashes of their dead. They'll meet no more at Richmond The long night’s shadows fall ; O’er the dividing ramparts the phan- tom captains call ; And “Farewell” echoes down the lines where flashed their warring blades— A long farewell to Richmond from the ooys of the brigades ! TELLER FOR BRYAN, connects Piedges Him His Support in the Race —The Sulyer Cause Must Win. Lineoln, Neb., July 18—That Wm. J. Bryan will receive the support of Henry M. Teller, of Colorado, there can be no longer any doubt. Mr, Bryan to-day received a letter from Senator Teller, ia which he assured him that he would support him in his race for President. The letter re~ ceived reads as follows: “Denver, Col., July 18, 1896. “Hon. Wm. J. Bryan. Lincoln Neb : “Dear Sir :—I congratulate you on your nomination at Chicago. I think the country is to be congratulated also. I need aot assure you that your nomi- nation was more than satisiacsory to me. I think we shall be able to consol- idate all the friends of free silver in your support, and it we do this, I Te- lieve you wil! be elected, although I do not overlook the tremendous power that will be put against us in this cam- paign. All the power of money and organized wealth and monopolies of allkinds will be against us. Justice is on our side, and this is the cause of the people. It is.a contest for in- dustrial independence and for freedom from the domination of foreign powers and capitalists, and it docs not sem possible in such a contest before the American people that justice should fail, and wr?ng prevail, not believe we shall faii. I think I can ‘premise you the cordial ' support ot the Western silver men, who have heretofore acted with the xepublican party, and it you get that, I think all of the Western coast and inter-moun- tain States will be with you, and I will not offer any Suggestion to you, save to advise you that as you were nominated without pledges of favor or privilege to Died. We are sorry to learn of the death of Mr. Theopolus Bland, which occur- red yesterday at his home, near Grif- ton. He was taken with a congestive chill and soon passed away. | Silver forces Should Un:te. Colfox, Iowa, July 15.—Gen. James B. Weav Populist candidate for President in 1892, said toa group of his friends at his home : “TI believe the Populist and tree sil- ver conventions will nominate Bryan and Sewall. It is the moral duty of the silver forces to make common cause and unite in supporting the Chicago nominee. It is the great opportunity of the century to surike a telling blow for the liberty of mankind. The St Louis conventions will rise to the gran- deur of the occasion and do their dnty. I believe that long before polling day the election of Mr, Bryan will be prace tically conceded.” The Body Found. eal \ ~. The body of H. J, Hoyle, whos. was | drowned from, or near, the O. D. S.’S+ Co’s. wharf on February 12, 1896, was founa Monday evening about 6 o’clock, near the locks, about two and a_ half miles down the river, by Marshal Kin- saul and a negro by the name of Banks. ‘The body had lodged under some brush and was discovered by ‘he colored man who came up to this city and got Mr. Kinsaul to go down and get it. It could not be ascertained whether the body was decomposed or not, as it was covered very badly with mud. It was thought, by many, that it was ina good state of preservation. It was remarkable that such should be the case after six{months lying in the}. water. The body was turned over to |the undertaker and pronefly buried. Weaver’s and Field’s Position. In 1892, the Populist nominated Gen. Weaver, of Iowa, and Gen. James G. Field, of Virginia, fer President and Vice-President. It has already Ido. been announced that Gen. Weaver will heartily support Bryan and Sewall. Judge Gentry writes to a friend in Atlanta : “General James G. Field, a promi- nent lawyer and farmer of thi3 section, and who was on the ticket for Vice- President of the Populist party in the the last National election, said in the presence of the postmaster and others of this place yesterday that he expected to attend the St. Louis convention on the 22nd instant, and would exert his influence to get the standard bearers of the Chicago convention indorsed by the Populist National convention and was opposed to his party making any nomi- nation.” “With both the nominees of 1892 tor the Democratic ticket, why shouldn't all other advocates of silver fall in line?

Rome, Italy, July 15, 1896.—A visit to the Catacombe is one of the in- evitable duties of the traveler here, no matter’ how little time he may find for anything else, It is indeed of un- failing interest to all sorts and ‘condi- tions of tourists, from the studens of his tory or the archeologist to the man who ‘js “doing” Europe in’ five weeks, ard who decides to give forty-eight hours to the Eternab City. The latter, it is true, is disinclined to waste time on the Catacombs, being under the impression that we have mines and tunnels i America which are as interesting and more practical ; but he comes because some one has told him that they must bé“seen ; nor does he feel that his time thas, been wasted, when he returns. First there is the drive along the Via Appia, where careful eyes’ may find some of the original stones, placed dong before the era of » Christianity, Even the unimaginative must think of the feet that have passed over them— from triumphal processions of Caesar and Titus to the weary tramp of fet- tered slaves ; not to mention the dis- tinct vision that arises of the little group of disciples who went to meet Paul as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns, and came back with him ‘to Rome. Then when you have reached the garden that surrounds the entrance to the Catacombs of St. Calixtus (there are several: rivals, bat ‘this is the most popular) you climb down into the dark passages, you ‘deci— pher the inscriptions made by the early Christians who found a hiding place here ; you gaze at the spot where the body of gentle St. Cecilia was found, -with its severed neck; you listen with rising hair to the story of the tourist who. was separated from the rest of his’ party, and who wandered helplessly in these miles of labyrinth for days; and “who was nevér found again, or accord- “ing to some vernious, was finally dis- covered in an imbecice condition, | This is always related, and makes you clutch your waxen ‘taper more’ tightly and follow closely the footsteps of the}. dé until you emerge blinded into “thie duter light.

One Ptpesel a, returned at once to suffer martyrdom, and the scene of the vision is com- memorated by the impress of Christ’s feet on the stone—much the same story that is told in other countries of Mohammed and of the angel Gabrief In this case, however incredulity is excusabie. The stone is uucovered (after you have paid for the privilege of selling it) with much formality and reverence ; there are the outlines of tha two feet ; but the observant can distin- guish the marks of toehails, leaving one to infer that the bungling artist desig- ned the same on the bottom of the feet. Another chapel, further out, on the snpposed site of Paul’s execution, is ealled the church of the Three Foun- tains- A bare-footed friar explains that as the head of the apostle fell from the axe, it rebounded three times.

He was nervous and ill at ease all through supper, and at last his wife began to notice it, says the New York World. “Henry,” she said, “I think there is something you wish to say to me.” “You have guessed it exactly, my dear,” he replied, “It’s a favor I’m atter, and I’ve been waiting until I caught you in your most amiable | mood.” “Well, what is it?” “There are two or three friends I’d like to invite here Saturday evening.” “What for?” “Why, to—er—well—that is, have a social evening.” “Now, Henry, tell me the truth.” “Well, my dear, we expected to have a little game of poker.” “What! Play cards in my house , Haven’t I always told you that wa, the one thing you could never do?” “I know it, my dear, but I thought thai since you joined the new women you might have grown more liberal in to your views.” “Jam more liberal, know, but I never can change on this one point.” as you well “That’s a ridiculous statement for a sensible woman to make.

Goi Manage: ' WNC INDIAN POMPEIL Once the Versailles of India, but Now a Desolation. Nothing sadder or more beautiful exists in India than the deserted city of Fathpar Sikri. There it stands, some 23 miles from Agra, much as it stood 300 years. ago when Akbar decreed the stately pleasure house. It was. built to commemo- rate the blessing of the holy Salim Chishti, the hermit, who dwelt among the wild beasts in his cave at Sikri, and who had foretold that Akbar’s son, born on that spot, should live to succeed him on the splendid throne. The saint did not foresee that the infant would grow up into that unmitigated debauchee Jehangir, whose orgies amazed Sir Thomas Roe, and whose potent liquor caused that virtuous em bassa- dor to sneeze incontinently, to tne delight of the whole court. But the heroic toper did not defile his fa- ther’s palace city, which must have been deserted soon after its found- at's death, for when William Finch lying like a waste district and very dangerous to pass through at nigist * Ruinate it has remained ever sinc:, desolate and abandoned. No late ruler of India has ever dared to lit wn Akbar’s Versailles, just as noru. er of India has eyer climbed to the heights of Akbar’s genius. In tre empty palaces, the wonderfu, | mosque, the sacred tomb, the bath-. the lake—at every turn we recognize some memory of the greatest of In- dian emperors. We may even en- ter his bedroom—the khwabgah, or ‘‘abode of dreams’’—and see the very screens of beautiful stone tracery, the very Persian couplets, the iden. tical decoration in gold and ultra- marine upon which Akbar feasted his eyes during the long sultry ait ernoons cf tho Indian plains. We may walk into the houses of Faizi and Abu-1-Fazzl, the laureate and the premier of his empire, who sang his glory and chronicled his reign. We Diwan-i-Khas, with its central pillar throne and odd galleries, which some have sought to identify with the famous hall where metaphysical de- hates took place every Friday night under the emperor’s personal presi- gian, orthodox and skepi:y, did furi- ous battle for their creeds cr dcabts till they ended, long after the ‘‘small £/ hours’’ by bandying ‘‘pervert’’ and ‘atheist, ’’ to. the disgust of, an un-, willing .witness—the austere :Ba-} daoni. The associations of Fathpur Sikri, “City of Victory,’’ are not its only claims to our interest and respect. Its’ beauty in desolation ‘exeited. the poetic imagination of-' Heber and stirred the critical enthusiasm oi Fergusson, who says of the ‘‘Turk- {sh sultan’s house, ’’ which still over- looks the Pachisi court where Ak- bar is fabled to have played his games of living chess, that it is ‘‘im possible to conceiveanything so pic turesque in outline’’ or any building so ricnly and wonderfully carved without the teast exaggeration or bad ta:te. Equally exquisite is the celebrated shrine cf St. Salim Chish. ti, built in 1580, with its pure white marble cenotaph, its red sandstone dome and its veranda inclosed by delicately pierced fali screens of. fair. mai vio, like fine lace set in samite. And for grandeur w))ut can compare to the stately “high gate,’’ Buland Darwaza, of the mosque whic» crowns the rocky piateau, and whicr, the historian ef architecture dites-a: “noble beyond any portal in India, “~~ perbaps in the whole world?’’—Ss An Amateur Postmaster.

If there is one object of dislike to a woman, itisastingy man. Now, by this we do not mean that the fair sex are anxious for aman to spend more than he can afford, but they do feel that it is due to them when they are invited out to have the privilege of seleting what they want from a menu without being prompt- ed by their host to select what he prefers. The man doesn’t have to say, “You must take this, or you mustn’t take that.’ A woman is quick to recognize the saving keynote when he says: ‘‘What will you have? I think I will have a sandwich,”’ and though she may loathe sandwiches she feels it her duty to say, ‘‘Well, then, I will have one too.’”’ Some mean men know that they can easily bulldoze a woman this way, and it would serve them just right if their guest were to say, ‘Well, for my part, I prefer terrapin, some fresu mushrooms, a canape Lorenzo and some Nesseirode pudding.”’ Oh, no, we never do say that. Woe are guided by the inflection in the wan’s voice and take whatever hs wants us to, whether we like it or not. Now, we don’t object one bit toaman being economical. Itisa praiseworthy trait, but for goodness sake don’t have him practice it when be takes a woman out to luncheon, dinner or supper. If he really can’t afford anything she might ask for, be has no right to invite her. Let bim do the elegant .ess frequent]:; and do it right when he is about it. The woman of the world will per- baps order a more extravagant meal then he would desire, but she won’t break him if he entertains her but once in decent style, instead of three or four times in poverty stricken fashion that makes his guest want to pass her purse across the table to him to help him out of his difficulty. There is no pleasure in eating under such circumstances, and a woman would feel much more pleased with a man if no such suggestion were made and she thus escaped an exhi- bition of his meanness. Let it be said right here that the really poor dency, and philosopher and theolo- a" man is not the one to get into such a@ predicament. He knows he can’t, and hestays out of trouble by not inviting you to a swell restaurant and then looking pained if you order something beyond what he had ocx: pected. It ig the man who wants to make a show of being a ‘thorough. bred’ who too often proves conclu. ‘sively by some episode of this sort that he is not. ‘*My boy will know how to order when he grows up,’’ saida young mother the other day, ‘‘if I have tc write out the menu for him evers | time he takes a young lady out. There won't be any ‘what will yon have’'about it, but he will select a dainty little meal that will relieve her from the embarrassment of se- tection, but won’t be made upof the cheapest things in sight, and will, therofore, give ber *% chance, if she does not care for his cioive, to make a change in One or more dishes with. out fesling that she is an up to date Jack Sheppard who has lured an un- happy victim into a restaurant just to rob bim.’'—Philadelpbia Inquir.
