Wanting in Love to Each Other.
Ob! there's a theme to make each dream,
And power to luivke each hour
As light and sweet as the bloom at our feet
Which is culled Ironi the May-day flower
>Jen seek too high ioi- things that are nigh,
Foregoing the help ol a brother;
Seltish and blind is the state ot the mind
When wanting in love to each other.
Ob! there's apian to make each man
imjipy uivj wuuie iiiiy inrougn,
"N'or ntwl he to roam to better his homo
Would we 11 nil him but work to do.
There's plenty ol soil on which to toil,
And add to the golden dower,
"Would men be but wise, and speedily rise
In loving and aiding each other.
01?! there's a way to make each day,
And power to make each night?
I>ri;;lit as the 1.100:1 and the sun's alternoon,
Would men be but wise and unite.*
There's plenty for all, the great and the small,
And plenty to give to our brother;
Wc too often waste in our hurry and hnste
l>y wanting in love to each other.
? Oliver Sinclair.
A WRECK AND A LOYE.
The clouds liun? sullen and dark over
Uanleaur bay. The wind came in wild
gusts, that moaned and wailed anion?
the ragged cliffs rising grim and cold
above the tossing waters.
Slowly the long day faded into night.
Wilder and fiercer came the wind,
sweeping madly through the little village
at tlie h< ad of the bay, and sending
weird notes through the cracks that afforded
it entrance.
This village was a strange and irregular
affair. Ther w:ts no street, unless
the wfde beach on which some of the
buildings stood could he called such.
As for these, they were as canny as the
bay they looked across.
Some were set with their gables to the
water: others fronted it, while still more
inclined toward it at an angle, their owners
thinking that such a position cut the
force of the sea gales.
As the darkness came on, a heavy grny
pallor seemed to gather on the bay,
through which the* phosphor-lit crests
of the waves shone dimly.
It was indeed a night of fear, and so
thought Agnes Deming, as she gazed out
into the deepening shadows.
" It is a long time since we have had
such a storm, mother," she said, " there
must be wild work on the reef outside.
God grant that 110 ship be driven
on it."
" There would be none saved," said
licr mother, shuddering. " It was just
such anight as this that the 'Agnes'
struck the reef ami none of her crew
came to the shore alive."
" That was my father's ship, was it
not?"
" Yes."
' Tell me of it. please.'
" I cannot. I cannot. Oh. my darling,
you were but a baby then. The bonniest
baby, he said, when he went away, that
ever the world had soon. And he never
came back to know how bright and beautiful
you grew."
" Perhaps he knows, mother."
" I trust he does."
As she said this, there came shuddering
through the air the ringing boom of
a gun.
Tl./i nlrW l,nr font liov I
hands extended, her eyes wild and despairing.
"Oh, save them! save them!" she
cried.
"What is it, mother?" said her
daughter, hastening to her side.
" What is it9 Why a ship driving on
the land. Did you not hear the gun?'
" I thought it a falling rock."
"It was a gun. Just so one sounded
that night your father was lost. Oh, if
this one should strike the reef."
" I shall ?0 to the beaeh and see," said
Agnes, taking her waterproof from the
little press by the chimney.
"No, no. "What can you do?"
" I may be able to help."
Iler mother sank down in her seat by
the fire, and Agnes opened the 'door and
went out.
The wind had grown in violence, and
surged down from the cliffs along the
bay, and swept in across the water,
threatening to lift the low cottages from
their foundations.
A beetling range of iron-strong rocks
ran along the crest of the ridge against
which the Peming cottage was set, and
this afforded Agnes protection from the
blast.
Often, however, the fierce gusts would
sweep by, making her cling to the rocks
for'support; and though she hastened,
it was some minutes ere she reached the
beaeh that was only a few yards from J
her home.

gun again came sounding along the I
waves, and a bright flash threw a sharp I
glow on the rocks at the mouth of the
bay.
In the moment of light this flash gave
she saw the dark side "of a ship that was |
driving into the bay, and she also saw 1
that the vessel's bow was headed directly
*">ward a reef running out from the cliffs.
In the vague light she could see the
forms of people moving on the beach in
front of the village, but she did not try
to join them.
Directly in front of her the cliff formed
a small cave, into which the foamy
waves came rushing with loud roars.
A sort of fascination seemed to hold
her to the snot, though why it should be
so she could not tell. The waves that
rushed into the cave before her seethed
and circled in foamy masses, and the
lurid glow of the phosphor flame gave a i
dim and uncertain light by which to
watch by.
Scarcely a minute intervened, after the 1
picture of the ship driving on the rocks I
had flashed before Agnes, between it and ;
a heavy crash, accompanied with loud j
crics of terror and despair. |
The ship had struck the reef, and the i
sound of splintering timber told that she
was breaking rapidly.
Nothing could be done to help her ]
people. The gloom was too thick and |
lieavy to admit of venturing out in the j
hay had the wind been favorable. Now j
that it came rushing in from wide
sweeps of sea, it brought with it im-!
mense foam-crowned rollers, against 1
which no boat could be forced.
All that the fishermen could do was j
to wait.
Agnes knew that effort was useless. !
She had witnessed these severe storms. !
and her experience told her that it would !
be vain to try the bay with the frail I
boats at command. i
Hut she could not take her eyes from
the little cave in front of her.
The water whirled in frothy circles
around its shelving basin and the blue.
phosphor flame grew more fierce and
lurid.
Suddenly she started forward with' a,
surprised cry.
Was she dreaming, or had she in
reality seen a face sweep by in the mail
vortex?
She bent forward, her eyes straining, j
Yes, there it w;is. showing ghastly
white in its setting of damp black hair.
Only a moment did she see it, and
then it was gone again.
Agnes was quick to think and act.
She knew that the water in the cave was i
shallow, and near her was a boulder that!
rose up like a natural column. The 1
water rushed against this, and sent a'
wild jet of spray flying landward.
Hastily taking off her water-proof,
Agnes formed it in a loon by knotting the
tvvo corncrs together, and this she threw
over the jutting boulder. Then thrusting
an arm through the opening, she waded
out into the cave.
The rush of the water almost swept her
feet from under her, but she persevered,
and with watchful eyes bent on the
frothing mass, stood ready.
It seemed an age to her. though it was
but a lew minutes, and she was beginning
to despair of seeing the face again,
when the waves flung some heavy thing
vrrjLincf. her. The shock threw her off her
balance, but she intuitively grasped the
object that had assailed her, and being
lithe and strong, managed by a great
struggle to regain her foothold.
Then, and not till then, did she recognise
that iter hands were clasping the |
girnients of a human being.
| |[t was a fearful struggle, that battle i
with the waves which strove to tear her
j -ize away, but the wind favored her,
:.;ul somehow, she never knew exactly i
how, she managed to draw the senseless j
form on shore.
The man, for it wa* a man's form that
alio had rescued, was light, and the excitement
that she was under gave Agnes,
wiio was naturally healthy and strong,
julded power, so that she was able to
reach her mothers cottage and deposit
her dripping burden before the glowing
fire.
The "Widow Deming was noted for her
skill as a nurse, ar d after her first sur
prised ejaculation of "Well I never! F
what have you there. Agnes?" And her
daughter's quick ans.ver of "A man
. / 4i.? .1. T.fT f1p!icrrrpfl nllt
irOUl llic mum, n Hum ?
ot tin? cT.ve." she was prompt in Iter ac- ^
tions.
Hot flannels, severe rubbings and
carefully administered potions were P
brought into requisition, and after a
half hour's work the first faint sign of v
returning consciousness and life told
that these had not been in vain.
Soon quick gasps and spasmodic con- c
tractions of the body showed that the
blood was flowing more freely, and a 1.
moan came from the lips that were just _
beginning to color, and a heavy per- i.
spiration broke over the broad brow.
Then the youth was placed on an oldfashioned
lounge, which had been "
wheeled up to the fire, and covered with sl
blankets, and soon his regular breathing a
told that the warm di aughts had done
their work and that he slept. o
The long night drew slowly to a close, c
and as dawn made the cast gray and v
I elitirlmw flip wind sank, and tuc clouds tl
began to break and roll away. Here w
and there stars shone in patches of blue, y
circled by rolling and tumbling masses it
of cloud.
As the light grew stronger, the blue b
islands of sky increased, and the cloud p
msisses gathered closer to the horizon, w
Then broad columns of gold and amber w
shot upward above the e;ustward lying E
clitts and made the room grow radiant, k
Agnes, who had been watching by the ^
sleeper, went to the window and looked
out. AV
The waves were still rolling into the j,
bay, hiuh and foam-crcsted, and though t>,
all of its expanse was before her, she w
could see no wreck. a]
Surely it w:is no dream, that sullen jl
boom and fearful crjtsh, a]
She turned her gaze to the beach in
front of the village. It was covered
with a mass of debris, among which the
people were seeking for the dead.
It was no dream. e;
The sun came up, and shone bright tc
and glorious ovc the wild picture. ?i
A movement of her charge caused ir
Agnes to turn toward him. ?'
His eyes were open, their glance H
wandering about the room, and so full
of wonder that it caused Agnes to smile.
At last it reached her and stopped. "
" Where am IP" questioned the man.
Agnes told him. r'
"And how came I ashore? I re- a
member tlie ship striking, and of being s*
washed oft' into the tea, and that is the "
hist." n
" Vou were dragged from out the cave j w
below liere, and brought to our home.
but you must not talk too much, for you f*
are weak." h
Then she began to prepare him some- 0
thing to eat, and the widow Deming S1
brought him garments that had long P
been kept as mementoes of one lost. ?
lie was considerably bruised, and for J*
weeks had to remain at the cottage. "
His story of the shipwreck was soon 0
told. Thev were running for port when ?
the gale came up, and 1 tended them otl 11
from the open sea. Then night shut
down, and soon they heard the roar of :
breakers. They tired the signal gun 'r
twice, the hist time just before the ship ?;
struck, and after that he knew no more. "
In the village Agnes w;is a heroine, F
but though people often called at the ?
cottage to see the young man, who gave '
the name of Herbert Clyde, Agnes and a
her mother contrived to keep the conversation
from referring to the rescue.
Agnes and Clyde had grown very fast p
friends, though lie was silent with regard
to his home or position.
At last he was able to go out, and went ?
down to the beach who the fishermen '
were.
Soon he came back, and entering the j |j
room where Agnes was, went directly to j ^
her.
" Do rau think you have been treat- , i
ing me linrly, my dear friend?" he said, n
" Why? What have I done?" asKcd
Agnes, in surprise. r.
" You never told me that I owe my
life to your brave act."
" And why should I?" n
ller eyes had sought his face, but they v
dropped before the glance they met. n
" Why should you not!"
" Because?because?" and she hesi- :!
tated. j.,
" Because you thought it might make ^
me feel too deeply indebted to you, is _
that it?" I
"I don't know why I did not tell f,
you, only it did not seem right just yet." f,
tie had come close to her, and taken 0
her hand. v
"I can understand why you kept si- ;i
lent," he said, " but now I know you
did it, will you not tell me all the j,
story ?" (i
Quickly and rapidly she gave her ex- ^
perience of that terrible night. When
she ended, his face was bent still nearer
to hers.
" I owe you much now," he said, "and g
yet I am going to ask you for more." a
She looked up wonderingly. d
" You risked your life to save mine, p
Will you not let me care for your com- C
fort hereafter?" 1;
" Mow?" and her cheeks flushed, and si
her breath came quick and hard. ii
" How? There is but one way. I w
love you. Let me take you home as my u
wife." h
Again her head was bowed. lie had c:
grown very dear to her during the long o
Weeks sickness had made him an in- h
mate of their cottage, and though she tl
had dreamed, she had never looked tor- ci
ward to this. s<
" Do you think I can make you such a li
wife jis you wish?" she asked, after some 1:
moments of silence. a:
"If you love me you can." r<
41 Then I can, for I do love \*ou," and b
her eyes looked bravely up into his face, ai
' I knew it," he said, as he drew hei ft
to him and kissed the little, upturned*! et
mouth. "Do you think an artist could j st
live with you and not love you or not! ru
see your love ?"
She did not speak, but in her great joy
nestled closer to him^
It was a bright anu joyous day in the lo
Doming cottage. Civile told all of his P<
life's history now. It w;is not much, j t:i

though less known, feat was his seven- w
mile swim against the tide from Lisbon al

one of Edgar Poe's youthful achieve- tli
ments. Capt. Marryat's "swim ashore" tl
from Jiis ship at Portsmouth, in his mid- jh
shipman days, was made memorable T
rather by the roughness of the sea and ' of
the fact of its bein^ done in his clothes ; rc
than by the actual distance, which was 01
but little over two miles. A Shetland fish- j tl
ennan, wrecked with his family upon a i ei

the Faroe islands, swam the distance in 01
quest of help, which he fortunately ol>- ] ai

>Ut Two harbors have been arrested for the
llilt murder of Mr. Frye in Boston. One of the
to men is a Greek named Antonio Ardito, who
the has been in this country only two months,
.be having fled lrom Italy liter committing a
)ed murder. The other, Nicolo Inlantino, is a
its, Sicilian, only sixteen years old. The two
fj a murderers were employed in a birber shop
Ilis wb>ch was patronized by Mr. Frye, who took
a tancy to the young Sicilian and lrequont
- a 'nv'te(i lbe youth to his residence
v. Another Sicilian, Sari Cheraro, going under
110 the nickname ot " Larry O'Neil," was alsoimuc"
plicated in the murder, infantino gave the
:ls ofllcers inlormation which Anally led to their
[)ni b. coming possessed oi all tne mcis 01 mo mmliis
der, which proves to hftve been ono ot the
per most cold-blooded ever committed in the
l'ill Stiite. It appears that it was arranged bein
<r tween the two Sicilians and the Greek to rob
the house and to murder Mr. Frye, in order to
rs. possession ot the money ho was supposed
to carry in lii.s pocket. They believed him to
be very wealthy, and that there was a probI
." ability ot his carrying arms. During the eve",s
ning of tho murder Infantino and Mr. Frye
i played billiards 111 the upper room, while Ar*
;'ie dito, the Greek, amused himsell by playing 011
!CK tho piano; at intervals all the three men took
ted something to drink. Between eleven and
; a twelve o'clock Infantino, acting under instrucbe
tions from the Greek, urged Mr. Frye to visit
\v- various parts ol tho house lor the puq>030 of
v a showing it to them. This request Mr. Frye
jng did not at first seem willing to grunt, but after
considerable persuasion ho finally consented,
j-(1 and the three men started down stairs to tho
j" lmseuient. As soon as Mr. Frye rcachcd tho
* bottom of the cellar stairs, tho Greek, who
was in front, turned and grabbed him with tho
1S ferocity of a tiger. Ardito was armed with a
pair ol scissors, with which he immediately
II r commenced inflicting the wounds which were
by found on tho body. Mr. Frye made a desilfe
peratc resistance, and, while being stabbed to
death, he tried to shako hands with the boy,
asking him in the most piteous manner to
spare his life. The Greek then ordered the
boy to shoot Mr. Fryo, threatening to kill him
if ho did not do so. The boy fired, and the
tC3 victim lell on his face, uttering a single cry.
of Alter rilling the pockets ol the murdered man,
:is and taking from him his gold watch, chain,

Mr. Z. L. White, staS correspondent ot the

City, saying that he finds that place " in a
state of unusual excitement, and Gentiles and
Mormons, who in ordinary times look upon
one another with suspicion and distrust, are
now indulging in threats against each other,
and the community seems to oe arming into a
state ot feeling which, to say tho least, is not
assuring, and causes much apprehension
among tne conservative men of both classes."
The recent decision of the Supreme Court in
tho iCeynold's test case, declaring polygamy
unconstitutional, was like a thunderbolt to
the Mormons; and in addition there has been
a recent change made in the territorial law
relating to juries, which is quite as important
as the Supremo Court decision, for the new
law enables the prosecuting attorney to weed
out all Mormons from a jury about to try a
man indicted for polygaiay. Formerly part
ol every jury was composed of Mormons, who
would never vote to punish a man for committing
a crime of which they themselves were
guilty, and which they considered no crime at
all.

For that purpose he asks the cooperation
of physicians and nurses, and recommends
that a yellow flag be put in front ol every
house in which there is yellow lover, and that
no ingress or egress shall bo permitted to
such houses except under rules prascribcd by
the Board of Health; that whenever it may
bo deemed expedient to do so, specially injected
neighborhoods shall be isolated, either
by erecting barriers or by stationing guards
upon tho streets leading into them, and prohibiting
nil intercourse with such ncighhor|
hoods, except, such ns may be allowed by tho
j Hoard ol Health, and that all attendance at
I funerals, except such as may bo necessary for
; the decent burial of tho dead, be discontinued,
j It may bo safe to assume, says a late Mem|
phis dispatch, that the backbono of tho fever
i is broken, so far as the whites are concerned,
I owing to the exodus to camps and tho system
I of Monition and disinfection neing esuioiiaueu
! and curried out. Acting upon Dr. Cochrane's
j suggestions, yellow flags were yesterdav
| placed in front ol till infected houses through|
out the city, and Chelsea, n northern suburb
| of the city, wherein no lever exists at present,
has been isolated, (tiinrds have been placed
at llie different streets, and nil persons Irom
infected districts ol the city arc prohibited,
upon pain ol arrest and punishment, Irom
entering Chelsea. 1'ho long line of flogs in
many badly inlectcd streets presents a strunge,
weird and melancholy spectacle. The experiment
of disinfecting infected houses by steam
is to be tried by oar aathorities.
Dr. R. W. Mitchell, the intrepid yellow
(ever physician of Memphis, describes the city
as wholly cut off from tne world. There are
no trains running into or out of the town, and
nobody leaves the place without the authorties
knowing it. 'No steamboats land there at all.
The supplies aro all brought down on barges.
which are aroppea Dy tne steamDoais a coupie
ol miles r.bove the city and allowed to float
down. When they arrive at the city men in
skills or tugs secure them and bring them to
the landing. If there is any lever carried
aboard it is done by some daring peddler who
runs his wagon ol supplies into the town on a
venture, sells out, and then clears out.
A recent Memphis dispatch reports fortytwo
new cases and Ave deaths, among the
latter being Major W. W. Gay, a well-known
and prominent citizen, who for a long time
scouted the idea that there was any yellow
fever in the city.
The house in Memphis where the Forues
iamily sickened and died, in Walker avenue,
was set on Are and burned to the ground.
This place was filthy in the extreme. Forbes'
wife and four children died. Three children
recovered. They were nursed by the Howards,
who had to put a large amount ot disinfectants
in the collar belore the nurses could
remain in the house. The surviving three
children mentioned were turned over to the
Sisters ol Charity. The house was terribly
intected. It was dangerous to the entire
neighborhood, and some one fired it at nigh I.
In June, during the hot weather, a largo
number ol vaults in Memphis were cleaned
out, and it hiis been noticed that the mpvement
ot the fever has followed the course ol
this vault cleaning?Judge Ray's, Mulbrendon's,
Tobin's and other infected points.

Wants Us to Eat Our Food Raw.
A German physician in relation to
food as between animal and vegetable
holds that " both vegetarians ana meat
eaters are on the wrong track. Vegetables
are not more wholesome than meat
or meat than vegetables, and nothing
is gained by consuming a compound
of both. Whatever nutritive
qualities they may possess," he says,
"are destroyed in great measure and
often entirely by the process of cooking.
All foud should be oiten raw. If this
practice were adopted there would be
little or no iilness among human beings.
They would live their apportioned time
and simply fade away, like animals in a
wild state, from old age." It is hardly
probable that he will find many civilized
Itomrra fnll intn his views of eatinc
tswugir wv *** ? ? ?* O
everything raw."
Nobody should complain of sea-sickness

When the Boweli are Disordered
No time should be lost iq resorting to a suitable
remedy. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters u
the most reliable and widely-osteemed medicine
of its class. It removes the causes ol
constipation, or ot undue relaxation of the
intestines, which are usually indigestion or a
misdirection ot the bile. When it acts as n
cathartic, it does not eripe and violently evacuate,
but produces gradual anrl natural effect*,
very unlike those of a dnistic purgative; and
its power of assisting digestion nullifies those
irritating conditions oi the mucous membrane
of the stomach and intestinal canal which produce
first diarrhea, and eventually dysentery.
The medicine is, moreover, an agreeable one,
and eminently pure and wholesome. Appetite
and tranquil nightly slumber are both promoted
by it.

He is successtui because he has the manly
courage to rise above all personal motives or

side of measures which will contribute to the
weil-being of his fellow-men. The good of the
many, even though it proves injurious to the
interests of the few, is the maxim ol the wise
legislator. But certain men will never admit
the wisdom of this doctrine, any more than
some selfish private practitioners will admit
the superlative value of Dr. Pierce's Golden

a bottle ol bitters, a tew powders, and
a prescription, when one bottle of Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and a bottle oi his
Pleasant Purgative Pellets, both costing but
