It remained iere about a.minnte, during which time wonderment and applause was great, anchor was then taken from his snider by six men and replaced upon deck.' Then came Cyi'a turn, and the betting ras two to one against him. He had sver attempted such a feat before. Yet, jthing daunted, he grasped the anchor, id, after a desperate struggle, managed i *get it on to his shoulders. It was a thing, however, and nothing like so ly done as by his opponent. Never I, he got it there. 'Now," said Cyr to the captain, ^ust ron get up and straddle across my shoul* jtas." After some persuasion this he was in laced to do, and Cyr, to the blank jment of the crowd, especially his ?onect, walked around the deck. This jastonfahed Burst that he shook him by a hand and said: "Well, now, you are e first man I've ever given best on that ? and the $200 were paid to Oyr. There is only one man that he bau met who was spltefal and aggressive through, jealousy of hia superior powers. That was a man named Parker. Outside, the hall where he was showing the heavy dumbbells wore exhibited, Oyr offered to anybody who could lift with one hand the 242 pound weight $10. Parker came along and said he could dc It, but failed. He was so raid about It that he swore Oyr himself could not accomplish the ; lijasi.-. Of comse Oyr laughed at him. "Look here,"- he said: 'Til bet you $50 that III pat the weight cp at arm's length over my head, right here on the ego*." '.'Done," said Parker, and the money was accordingly pnt up. And so was the dumb bell, much to the surprise and annoyance of the incredulous aspirant. He became to enraged that he was abusive, and after a wordy warfare, in which the weapons used were called from anything bat choice language, Parker struct Oyr. In an instant he was in the arms of the modern Hercules, who gave him a squeeze that made his ribs crack, then hurled him to the mid? dle of the road. Crash he came down, and there lay until he was taken away to the hospital with an iojary to his back. "And that's the only time," said Oyr, j "that I ever came to blows and struggle since I took to exhibiting." Who Will bo President 2 This is: the presidential election ;ear. On the 9th of November nexl; "electors" will be chosen in each State. The elect* pre will meet at the capitals of their re? spective States GUv Tuesday, January 10, 1893, and vote for a President and Vice- | President; the electoral votes will be counted by congress on Wednesday, February 8th, and the new President w?l be inaugurate* en Saturday, March 4th. But all that follows- the election in No member is formal. interest concen . fcrates on the selection of candidates and & e popular canvass. \ne first thing to be -done V to make the & ominations. The national conven? tions^ this purpoie are .held in the late Bpring O.t the early summer- ? There, are now three parties which have an wga^niiation in al I the States, ami whkk may. be called national: the EepuWican, the.Democratic and the Pro* bibitiorj. parties. They all ccnstitate tiit?af national conventions on the same plan, and transact the business of select* ing candidates and mrmin-g a platform in the same way. A national convention of ?ither of the? parties consists of delegates chosen in each State by State aoA district con? ventions, in number equaling? uVrice the representation of the State in ovh houses off congress. Thus, New York'had1 two senators and thirty-four members oi can* gross; and that'State will be eutitled to seventy-two delegates and vote* in each, of the national conventions. . A national convention usually effects a temporary organization and 'appoints eommittess on the first day of its session,, adopts its,platform of principles on the second or ^third day, and then proceeds to make its nominations. If there is no content over the choice of candidates, a' thret? day iJ session may complete the bus? iness; but the Republican convention of 1S88T was in session neazly a week be? fore Mr. Harrison was nominated. m? ? In Democratic conventions a contest over the nomination involves more delay than in Conventions of other parties, for a two-thirds majority has been required to make a nomination by the Democrats ever since candidates were chosen by na? tional conventions; In other parties a majority ill sufficient to make a nomina? tion. There will no doubt be otb?t candi? dates than those named by the three-par? ties mentioned, bat unless something, now quite unexpected occurs, every elec? toral vote will bo given to the,Demo? cratic or to the Republican candidate.. After the convention the next event is the acceptance of the nomination by the candidate, who expresses bis ap? proval of the platform in a 'formal letter. Xhtin follows the canvass under the guid? ance; of the national committees, with all tie e,a'buaiasm~ronsing accompaniments of * Btump-speaking, procesBions and torsi, Ught parades. The canvass grows warmer until the day of. election. No device that politi? cian* u? u invent -is left unused. As the tfmeibr voting draws near, the parties baoofnesa ? scrupulous abeet the weap ynsf ttnrj employ to beat the eaemy. g^trsWrnm ' they, have re?opted to tricks that wew A igracefolly unfair.. At t?te tim ? this article appears there is plenty Of fen tercet in the coming elec? tion, : fcui tfcei'e is no excitement. It s?em& dtmVultt to realize that men who now discuss matters calmly are sure be? fore September t nds to be in ?State in whicb party feelLig and passion, rather than their own sober judgment, will con? trol them. The result no marf; can foretell. The leaders of euch of the two great historic parties are confident of victory,, and they w5B?exert themselves io the utmost tose* cure it.; The pending contest is one to interest all who have now, or who in a few years will have, a share in the duties and re? sponsibilities of American citizenship. j? should particularly engage the atten ?oa of the boys who are approaching ood.

In lens than two years, Wilkins came home in his coffin.

The farmers of Iowa and Texas aro greatly encouraged over the condition of the crop prospect this soason, and from the present outlook a great crop of oats, wheat and corn will be secured. Education and ?fatnre. Tho girls who go to. priva te schools are, as a ride, from families of at least moder? ate wealth. But in our fluctuating country thiB is no proof that they will go through their lives without feeling the necessity of doing something at some time for their own support or the support of others. What that will be we cannot tell, for the march of invention is bo swift that if we should prepare the girl for an/ one industry, she might fiud her* self nr.able to make he* living out of it when the need should come. She will probably be, we may say, ? wife and a mother. But if we assume this, we still do not know how to fit her for the duties i of those propositions in a definite wsy. The best thing still is to make the most of a woman we can out of her, and then to trus; the disciplined woman we have fashioned to answer for herself the de? mands to come to her in the misty future, which :jhe will see, and which she can I judge, but which we sbafll not Bee, and which no man can foretell. The province of education is to lift the individual out of her jiaturalnesa, and not' to allow her to remain in it., All education is this. ?The child would prefer to. take her food in her; lingers, for it is natural to her to do so; but education takes her immedi? ately in' hand, and makes her eat in the way not of aature, but of civilization. TLnto i i no natural way of education; it is sll completely unnatural, and roust be so. The natural child protests against discipline of Whatever kind, and seeks to follow her cravings; but of this fools' paradise?which would be no paradise at all, as her teacher knows?she must be I driven, and out of it she must be kept, though it be with a flaming sword. It hats been said that the natural man was hes up on the shores of knowledge as the .shipwreck Irishman on the desert island', exclaiming: "Is any government establi shed in this country? If so, I'm agin it P This not too strongly illus? trates th ,e opposition made by the natural mind to the training necessary for its at? tainment o f the statue which rightfully belongs to it"- as heir of all the ages. If the home dot* its work well, the task of the teacher an'd the school is compara? tively easy; imt there are too many [ American families, as every teacher ! knows,, where this work has not been done, ani where', consequently, much effort has to be sp,snt in supplementing the lack of skill or i*Jiefoolish indulgence of the mother.

The Post had a man on duty at thiB reunion, and he neither heard of not saw anything of that sort Our contemporary is moved to .observe that its representative "saw General Longstreet several times, met him in the clubs* and elsewhere, and can testify that the latter was cordially received on every hand." The olJ warhorse has become in? firm with years. He is now quite deaf, and conversation with him has to be ne? gotiated through an ear trumpet.

A joini committee appointed by the min? istry of war and the municipal council has approved a plan for Building large stores to preserve supplies of frozen meats. In time of war the city needs 620 tons of meat a day, and should war be declared these stores are to receive 30,000 tons of beef and muttcoa, or half-rations for 1C0 days.

Leland, proprietor of the Leland House, in Chicagto, says there are thirty new hotels in that city, either al? ready built or in course of construction, owing to the prospective rush of busi? ness at the World's Fair. These hotels represent in the cost of their construction at least $15,000,000. Bjb thinks the growth of the city, the new railroads being constantly built in the Western metropolis and the increase of popula? tion?regular as well as tlhat induced by means of the Columbian Eixposition?and the capital that will be attracted will make these great hostelries paying insti? tutions when the" World's Pair has be? come a thing of the past. ? Bishop Taylor, .the no<ted mission? ary leader in Africa, made an interesting statement the other day at the Methodist; ministers' meeting in New York of the actual condition of affairs in Liberia, which has been exploited aa the "prom? ised land" for American negroes. He tsald: "It is. a good country, with plenty ot n atural advantages, and some of the negroes who have emigrated there have done well. But the proportion of these, is small. Four-fifths of the immigrants have returned to the States, and many who have gone out recently will return as noon as the opportunity offers itself. I don't know how the contrary impres ' 8lon has been spread, except, perhaps,, that some of my writings descriptive of the country have been misinterpreted." ? Travellers in Japan tell of the un? concern with which a Japanese will take a bath in full publicity, and the custom has impressed foreigners as immodest. An Englishman who has long been in the country says there is really nothing im? modest in the promiscuous bathing of men, women and children from a Japan? ese point of view. "With, thern cleanli? ness is the object sought for, and the etiquette of the bath room differs from the etiquette) of the parlor. With Europeans, he says, the attitude of waltzers is only permitted when . the music is played. It is sometimes like this with Japanese bathers. When the necessary operation of washing or doing, other work requires it to strip becomes a duty. On the other hand, a Japanese woman would scorn to appear decollete. To her eye our ball rooms are an astonishment, and the ex? posure of the person for display :1s incom? prehensible. This writer thinks that the Japanese are not excelled by their Western brethren ia modesty. ? A story is told illustrating the rigid 1 discipline of the Russian army. Ono of j the Grand Dukes told the Czar that a sentinel at the railroad crossing at Petor hof refused to raise the gate for his car? riage, although the train was not due for three or four minutes. "It is against or? ders, your Imperial Highness," the sol? dier replied, the rule being that when the gate is shut it must not be opened until after the train had passed. The Czar said that he was glad to hear that the soldier knew how to obey orders. The Grand Duke laughed and said that he was certain that if the Czar himself had been present discipline would have given way. The Czar did not reply, but a few days after, to put the matter to the test, he drove np with the Czarina just after the gate had been lowered. The Czar called to the sentinel to let him pass. The sen? tinel, in great trepidation, saluted, bnt did not move the gate. "Open the gate, I tell you," cried the Emperor. "Don't you know who I am?" "Yes, your Imperial Majesty, but it is against orders, and I cannotopon the gato," an? swered the sentinel, still saluting, and turning .almost blue with anxiety, but not moving an inch from his place. "I am the Czar, and I command you to open," cried the Czar again. "I can't do it, your Imperial Majesty," despairingly cried the sentinel, still standing firm. Just then the train passed. The Czar burst into laughing, and warmly com? mending the astonished sentry, presen? ted bim with a twenty-five-roublo note, and drove back to the palace. CHILD BIRTH ? ? ? ? ? ?
