THE VALLEY OF SILENCE.

Out far on the deep there are billowsThat never shall break on the beach,

And I have heard songs in the silence.That never shall float Into speech,

And I have had dreams In the ValleyToo lofty for language to reach.

And I have seen thoughts in the Val-ley

Ah, me! how my spirit was stirredThey wear holy veils on their faces,

Their footsteps can scarcely beheard;

They pass down the Valley like vir-gins

Too pure for the touch of a word.

Do you ask me the place of this Val-ley,

To hearts that are harrowed withcare?

It lieth afar between mountains,And God and His angels are there;

And one is the dark mount of Sorrow,And one the bright mountain of

Prayer. Father Ryan.

LOBEIR'HUKTER. 02S iJLJ.2s. JLJkTk

Long years ago when the fairiesstill used their power there lived ayoung man named Lohier. lie wasgood looking and not without wit,but the poor fellow had one misfor-tune. He never succeeded when hewent out hunting and yet he obsti-nately persisted in hunting all thesame. ;

What a rare thing among com- - ;mon people at that time, Lohier had apretty home of his own the gift of agenerous lord whose life he had saved, iIt was made up ox a cottage oesiue alittle pool of tish. a few acres of land,and a moor, where doubtless, therewas plentv of game under the broomand the briars. The moorland wasthe torment of the poor man's life.It was in vain that he set out at thebreak of day, his rifle on his arm, andhis dog, Pataud, at his heels, to beatthe bushes until evening. Rabbitsand hares slipped away betweeen hisfeet, while the partridges and the lit-tle birds flew up before him withouthurrying as if they knew his ill luck.

There is no need to say that the peo-ple of the of the village laughed loud-ly when they met Lohier with hisemrty game sack and Pataud loweringhis ears. Rut when he came home theunfortunate hunter had the same re-ception. His wif?, Paulette, over-whelmed him with reproaches.

Usually Lohier bore it with goodgrace and was only bent the more ongoing hunting.

However, one evening he came backin a bad humor, after having spentIn vain his whole provision of powder. He found at the cottage his jcousin William, who was waiting forhim with all his mates to ask him tohis wedding. After the first compli-ments, Paulette brought out a jug ofcider which put every one in a goodtumor.

"See here, William," cried Lohier,while they were drinking each other'shealths. "What present do you wishme to make you for your marriage?"

His cousin ansvered, jokingly: "Oh,I'm not hard to please. Just bring mea few fine pieces of game for thewedding breakfast. That will be easyfor a hunter like you.

This displeased Lohier, who became iquite angry as ue saw iue uuier smu- - .ing. So, striking the table a heavyMow with tis fist, he said: "Don't you !believe that if I wished to take theTrouoie i snoum ue a& gwu iiuuiei x :any of you?'

"Prove it then," answered tha youngmen. who were much amused at his

j

anger. i"That's easy enough," retorted the

imprudent Lohier carried away byself love. If after two days 1 do notbring you six rabbits ard twelve par- - j:tridges shot with my own hand, Iwill' give you my house and property,without any conditions."

"Agreed!" they all cried. And theyoung men came, one after another, ;to take the open hand of Iiohier as a jsign of the agreement. Then they all jwent away. j

Paulette laughed no longer. And theas William and his companions had ;disappeared she filled the house with :her lamentations rxd ove-whelra- edher husband with her reproaches. ;"Do you wish to have us ruined?"he said, weeping. "After two days

we shall be Iwggars without a roofto our heads, for you ar too clumsyto win this wretched bet.

Lohier answered, sharply, though atheart he trembled, asking himselfhow he should get out of this evil ;plight.

With the morning he set forth, ac-- !unnamed by his faithful Fataud. ;

who said1 nlainlv in the laUm --e ofdogs, "Here we go again to miss our

"fiie" jThe first day's results showed that

the wise Pataud was right. Not ananimal with fur or feathers liadbeen touched by the shots Oj! Lohier.He did rot dare ,ro back to the house,where nothing awaited him but thecomplaints and reproaches of Pau-lette.

"Mv poor comrade," he said to hisdog, as he shared with him the re- -mainder of his bread, I think we shallhave to get used to poverty. To-morro- w

I shall certainly have lost theprosperity which I risked so foolish-ly."

When he had finished his frugalmeal, the fresh water spring bubblingop from a gray rock allowed, him torefresh himself. Then he stretchedhimself out sadly on the briars, wheresleep did not delay finding him.

It was near midnight when the hun-ter awakened with a start. He wasstupefied at the sight before him. Inthe midst of deep darkness, for themoon did not shine that night, thegray rock had grown luminous, whilethe water of the spring, sometimesblue and sometimes rose color, seemedto sparkle with sapphires and rubies.Lohier remembered that the old menof the country called this "the fairies'rock," because, they said, those mys-terious beings held council these. Anidea suddenly entered his mind, andhe cried out with a loud voice:

"Fairy of the briars, have pity on awretched man! Help me to kill to-morrow the six hares and the twelvepartridges which will permit me tokeep my home."

It seemed to him that a voice ofcrystal mingling with the murmur ofthe spring, and repeated softly:

"Six hares and twelve partridges?""Yes, yes; nothing but that," he an-

swered. "I shall own you more thanlife itself!"

A beautiful flame, brilliant as a dia-mond, escaped from the summit of therock, which became dark and grayonce more.

"It is the fairy who has gone away,"thought Lohier, full of hope, and heturned over and slept again.

The next day when the sun hadarisen, he was afraid he had simplydreamed. But scarcely had he loadedhis rifle to. begin the hunt when fromevery point of the moorland therecame toward him in crowds rabbits,partridges, pheasants, quail and snipe.Soon the little open space, In the midstof which the gray rock rose, was sofilled that Lohier had scarcely roomto stand.

Crazy with joy, he began firing intothis crowd of animals. Every one ofhis shots brought down five or sixpieces of game. But Lohier, who hadnever seen such luck, shot withouttiring himself until Pataud was theonly living being near him. He leftthe brave dog to guard his treasureand ran home out of breath.

"We are saved !" he cried to Taulette."Give me our donkey, with our big-gest panniers."

The morning was hardly long enoughfor him to carry away his booty, al-though the poor donkey went back andforth each time with a heavier load.When William and his friends cameinto the yard, Lohier was finishing theunloading of the last pannier. At thesight of this great heap of game, themischievous smiles which had been ontheir lips changed to open-mouthe- d as--jtonishment. They stood there, theirarms hanging down, looking at eacnother, and not knowing what to say.

Lohier, beside himself with joy, rub-bed his hands and laughed with all hisheart. He felt himself happier than aking, when his friends, recoveringfrom their astonishment, gave himtheir wannest compliments. The hareswere so fine! partridges so fat! Thepheasants and small game in suchstate! They all began feeling of thegame with their hands.

Oh. what a surprise! The littledwellers of the moorland all jumpedto their feet at once. The hares beganto run, the partridges and the otherbirds to fly in every direction and insuch confussion that the witnesses ofthe scene knew not what had becomeof them. At last the game had all dis-appeared, and' the voice of crystal,which Lohier had already heard, pro-nounced these words:

"Friend Lohier, remember that bythe gray rock you asked me only forsix hares and twelve partridges. Youhave killed without mercy all thesepoor guests of my moorland. I gavethem back their life and leave you acounsel you must not abuse your op-portunities." A light, rosy cloud, fol- -lowed by a bright flame, showed thedeparture of the fairy.

It was now the turn of William andhis companions to laugh long and loud.But finally, seeing the pitiful air ofpoor Lohier, Will came forward withoutstretched hand.

"Cousin." he said, "we give you backyour word. Our bet was only a joke.None of us would take his propertyaway from a brave fellow like you.But let me add counsel to the one youhave already received: You must neverpromise to do what is above yourstrength."

"Thanks, William, to yourself andrrt nii of vn mv f r5nnri; anrnmiLohier. "I have been imnrudent anda vain man. I shall probably be allmy life long the clumsiest hunter ofthe countrv. But I now k now a wayof getting good from it. From to-da- yyou may hunt freely on my ground. Ishall be as pleased with your luck asif it were my own."

Strange to say, from the day whenLohier showed himself so generousand simple in acknowledging wherehe was wrong, he had good luck Inhunting. He seldom went through themoorland in the company of hisfriends without bringing back a well-fille- d

SAID BY MR. HARVEY.

CHAMPION OF SILVER ARRAIGNSTHE TRAITORS.

Ills Closing Words In the Great DebateWill Pass Into History to Be ClassedEven with Those of Patrick Ilenrr ofRevolutionary Fame.

I am about to close this debate. Iwant, in the words that I shall utter,to extend an encouraging message tothe distressed people of the UnitedStates. I want to say to them thatrelief is coming, to pick up courage,and to those who are suffering untiltheir hopes are crushed and who con-template abandonment of all hope intheir business, I say do not do so. Hope,comfort, and relief are coming. Man-hood in this country is again going tobe revived. We are going to force thiscountry by the shere influence of in-telligence to cease its worship of prop-erty and money as of greater value thanhumanity. (Applause.)

Some Scottish troops were once sur-rounded by the enemy, and after con-stant fighting, with provisions cut offthe Scottish soldiers were dying ofhunger. They were still brave, andcould repel the enemy, but the wast-ing away of life from starvationbrought them to the consideration ofthe question of surrendering. Theyhad waited In vain for reinforcements.When about to send forth the flag oftruce to announce that fact, after wait-ing many days and weeks for reinforce-ments to relieve them, the soldier whostarted with the message had butmounted the parapets when he heardin the distance the Scotch bagpipes ofthe Scottish soldiers playing "TheCampbells are Coming." There was nosurrender and there was victory.

Let me say to the people of theUnited States that if you will butlisten, you will hear the music uponthe air, "The Campbells are Coming"

the spirits of Washington, Jefferson,Jackson, and Lincoln are coming. (Ap-plause.)

The same oppression that exists inthis country by the fraudulent moneymeasurement that is confiscatingyour property, exists throughout theworld. It first entrenches itself in thepower of the officers who obey its com-mands. As your property falls in valuethe salaries of these officers are in-creased. Where 17,000 bushels of wheatwould have paid the president's salaryof $25,000 in 1873, it will take 80,000bushels to pay the salary of Mr. Cleve-land of $50,000 now.

With the encouragement of themoney power comes increased salariesand official corruption; hence officialdespotism.

To-da- y liberty Is appealing to usfrom all over the wrold. Cuba is to-day striking for liberty against the op-pressor, Spain. I have stood in theharbor of Havana and looked upon thatold fortress at its mouth and had toldmo by a citizen of Havana that beneathits walls underground were subter-ranean channels, passages, and cells;that citizens of Cuba for politicalcrimes only, had been in these cells foryears, and had never seen daylight.

It is to liberate those people, it is toend their oppression that comes withyour money power, that the liberty-lovin- g

people of Cuba are to-da- y strik-ing for liberty.

There is a rising in this country withyour money power, a tendency to in-trench and protect oppression theworld over where it gets the oppor-tunity.

The president of the United States,the willing implement of the moneypower and tyranny and oppression, hasgiven every assistance to Spain, hassent our war vessels to guard the coastof Cuba, the Spaniards living inFlorida, from going to their succor.

We are fighting the battle of libertyfor the world. (Applause.) The resultof your verdict upon this momentousquestion will be world-wid- e. It willconvey words of cheer and stimulatethe nerves of free men in every land.Never was civilization so dependentupon the action of any one people inthe world as it is to-d- ay upon the peo-ple of the United States.

The money power has crushedhuman liberty the world over. Civi-lization arose on the Tigris and theEuphrates. At its birth the selfish in-fluence through the money power thatarrogated to the few the property ofthe country drove the people seekingliberty away, and they crossed theMediterranean into Greece and Rome.

In turn the same selfish interestthere absorbed the property of the peo-ple and sent freedom to modern Eu-rope. Again pursued by the same sel-fish spirit, those freemen of Europe fledacross the Atlantic to America.

There Is no other place you can go.The islands of the Pacific ocean will notsustain the population. We stand to-day with our backs to the Pacific oceanand our faces to that enemy that haseaten out civilization in all countriesto-da- y. The tail of that serpent restsin Egypt and India, its body in Europe,and its head Is raised in this country.Will you fight it? (Applause.)

Thomas Jefferson when In Paris wasasked: What, in your Judgment, isyour greatest protection in the UnitedStates from tyranny? His reply was:In every log cabin in the United Statesthere is a rifle, and tyranny does notdare to raise its head. The men whoowned those rifles have passed away,hut they have left you the ballot, andas you guard and protect that ballot sowill you answer to history for thecharge that they gave to you. (Applause.) We need a second declarationof independence in the united States.(Applause.)

I want to take your minds back to ascene that was enacted upon our soil inPhiladelphia when congress was in ses-sion and about to pass the declaration.The old bell man went Into the towerat the hour that congress convened.

I There were ten or fifteen thousand peo- -

pie in the streets. He had posted & little boy at the door to give him thesignal if the declaration was adopted.Hour after hour went by and the oldman shook his head and said, "Theywill never do it; they will never doit." Suddenly there was a shout in thestreets and the little bue-ey- d oycame into sight clapping his hands andshouting, "Ring, grandfather, ring."The old man, seizing the tongue of thebell, threw it back and a hundred timessounded that tocsin that has echoedand re-echo- ed over this land ever sincethat memorable day when we declaredour first independence from E gland.

What we need to have to-d- ay is a lib-erty bell ten thousand liberty bells toring out in this country, speaking theintelligence of this people, that theycan understand the war made upon Itsresources whether it may be made bya destructive influence or by shot andshell. (Applause.) Teach the peoplefrom the little blue-eye- d boy to theyoung and old to live again for thecountry and to understand that whenits liberties are about to be destroyedthey should act as their revolutionaryforefathers acted, and declare that weshould by right be Independent of thefinancial laws of England or of anyother land that strikes at our liberty.(Continued applause.)

What Do You Think of This?Several prominent officials of the

League of democratic clubs are inWashington at the present time, andfrom one of them it is learned that thaleague is to be used for all it is worth,to advance the theories of the admin-istration. Work will begin at once andwill be pushed vigorously. Wrherevera democratic convention reads arightthe handwriting on the wall, a helpinghand will be extended. The endorse-ment of the administration will securethe support of the league. Wrhile theleaders of the organization are desirousthat every democratic gathering shalluphold Mr. Cleveland in his tariffpolicy as well as upon the currencyand coinage questions, they are deter-mined to control the silver utterancesof the conventions above all else. An,expression in a state convention plat-form favorable to silver will bringdown upon the convention the an-tagonism of the league. On the otherhand, the endorsement of the adminis-tration means moral and financial sup-port. While the league will assistmaterially in the efforts to elect thestate tickets in Maryland, Iowa, Ken-tucky and Pennsylvania, and suchother states as may endorse the admin-istration, the supreme effort will bemade to insure the election of anti-silv- er

delegates to the national conven-tion of 1896. The whole power of thepresident and the cabinet will bebrought to the support of the leaguein its efforts for sound money, and nomeans will be neglected which mightaid the election of "sound money" dele-gates, even in instances where nine-tent- hs

of the people openly favor sil-ver coinage at the ratio of 16 to 1.

Silver Sentiment in Illinois.J. K. Rordin, editor of the Charles-

ton (111.) Daily News, prints a card say-ing that Senator Hill and ComptrollerEckels are talking at random whenthey declare that Illinois will be for"sound" money when the democraticstate convention meets next year. Healleges that there are not enough golddemocrats In the state to fill all thefederal offices, as most of the postmas-ters are free silver men, but are keep-ing quiet.

Editor Rordin then challenges Hilland Eckels as follows: "If these gen-tlemen have any 'sound money to betthat the silver movement is dying outin Illinois, or that the Illinois demo-crats will not declare for free silver in1S96, let them come out to any countyin Illinois and their money will get ac-tion at once. For any man to say thatthe Illinois democrats are not for freesliver 16 to 1 simply shows that he istalking through his hat."

Manufacturing in India.As for the manufacturing industry oi

India its progress, though rapid of late,has not been diverse enough, either inkind or locality, to make much impres-sion on the country at large. It hashitherto won only a . comparativelysmall portion of the community awayfrom the agriculture, to which the lat-ter is traditionally devoted. For onething, India is at present at a disadvan-tage In comparison with many of itscompeers as regards a sufficient nativesupply of good coal and iron. Its laboris plentiful enough; whether it is cheapor not depends on its quality relativelyto that of the more highly paid wage-receivi- ng

class elsewhere. Somebranches of industry, it Is true, havetaken root to an extent that seems toopen out the way for the transfer ofcapital to India from countries where,for various reasons not yet prevalentin the east, profits are, to put it mildly,uncertain. Among these are, of course,cotton and jute works, to which maynow be added paper-makin- g and ar-ticles of leather. The wider extensionof any of these operates toward the dis-persion of the population from the land,and so far tends to lighten the. bur-den as it becomes heavier in the ccurseof years."

Wise Old Kinff Cerrops.Did I say that the people who lived

there (Athens) at that time weresimple-minded- ? Rather childlike they

I were in some ways, and not so worldly-- .wise as they might have been had theylived some thousand years later; butthey were neither simpletons noraltogether savages. They were theforemost people in Greece. It was allowing to their king, wise old Cecrops,that they bad risen to a condition supe-rior to that of the half barbarous tribesaround them, lie had shown themhow to sow barley and wheat and plantvineyards; and he had taught them todepend upon these and their flocks andherds for food, rather than the wildbeasts of the chase, tie had persuadedthem to lay aside many of their oldcruel customs, had set them in familieswith each its own home, and had in-structed them in the worship of thegods. On the top of the Acropolis theyhad built a little city, and protected itwith walls and fortifications againstany attact from their warlike neigh-bors; and from this point as a centerthey had, little by little, extended theirinfluence to the sea on one side and tothe mountains on the other. But,strange to say, they had not yet givena name to their city, nor had they de-cided which of the gods should be itsprotector.

An Antoinette Wrap.If there is no new dress under the

sun, Aaron's linen coat being worn to-day by women and pantaloons havingbeen found from the stone epoch, thereare at least designs that reappear likecomets at such long intervals that theyare new to some consecutive genera-tions. Thus it is with a certain MarieAntoinette cloak, that has appearedand seems destined to a career. Notso very old in its design it is so ex-tremely odd and its career was so shortin its day that it comes with all ' theeffect of surprise. This hood is ex-ceedingly wide and is hooped round theopening, and when on the head standsout like an inflated half balloon some-what flattened on top and leaving awide space on each side of the face,that may be filled with hair or shad-ows. The width of this hood reachesout to that of the widest sleeves evermade. Attached to a long cloak it isbound to figure in evening wraps nextwinter, but forstalling the time, theyare occasionally seen on hotel piazzasat night, and made of taffeta beruchedor of satin lined with cloth; one or twotravelers have worn them coming fromParis to the beech. The effect is trulymarvelous.

The First Horse that Ever Lived.There is a Greek legend tellling how

Athens came by its name, and there isa noble horse who plays a prominentpart in the legend. If we are to be-lieve the story, he was the first realflesh-and-bloo- d horse of which we haveany account. Some men say that hewas the first animal of the kind thatever lived, but this is doubtful. Snowywhite, without spot or blemish from thetips of his ears to the tips of his amberhoofs, how he must have astonishedthe simple-minde- d folk of Cecropinwhen he leaped right out of the earthat their feet!
