But bravely, silently borA her part,
Lo! there is that battlefield.
No marshalling troop, no bivouac song;
No banner to gleam and wave;
But, oh! Miese battles they last so lung—

Fights on and on, in the endless war*,

A TRAMP'S GIFT.
It wits at the hour when the
shades of night begin to fall and
the curses wander homeward to
roost. The weary wayfarer gave
a last gulp and said:
“1 can not repay yon in scudi
for your kindness, madam. But
here is a little puzzle which may
serve lo while away nn idle hour.
My father, left a widower at the
age of forty-seven, married a maid-
en of seventeen, and upon I he fol-
lowing day my brother Lyman
wedued her mother, then a widow
of thirty-six. In due time a son
was born to each couple. It may
afford yon some little amusement
in estimating the various relation-
ships my father now bears to Ly-
man, to Lyman’s wife, and Lyman’s
child; also to himself and wife and
child. You might also calculate
the relationship Lyman bears lo
his own wife and child and to his
father and the latter’s wife and
child. But I most be on my way.
Good evening.” And he was gone.
When Isham (f. Hicks the bus-
band of the benevolent lady, re-
turned borne somewhat later, he
found the wife of his bosom suffer-
ing from a violent headache, the
result of an hour’s grappling with
the puzzle. She repeated it to him
and retired mveh earlier than was
her wont. Aud Isham G. laughed
aloud and declared that a woman
had no head, anyhow, and sat him
down to work out the puzzle in
fourteen minutes.
V\ hen Mrs. Hicks awoke in the
gray of the morning, Iter husband
was not by her side. As she stepp-
ed quietly to the sitting-room door,
site heard him say, in dreary mon-
otone:
“ Lyman’s—baby—is—the—half-
brother— of-his-father’s- -step-mo-
ther—who—is—also—his-father’s
—step daughter—aud—his—moth-
er’s—daughter —and—oh—dear—
me—how—my—head—aches.’’
The leaves of a huge scratch-
tablet lay about him like a drift of
snow, all covered with figures and
diagrams, and before him a sheet
setting forth fourteen propositions,
of which the following is a fair
sample:
“The older man is the father-in-
law of his mother-in-law and the
husband of his grandson’s half-
sister, who is also the child’s step-

got iuto Jail, and four prisoners
escaped while the sheriff and three
more prisoners were grappling
with it. The malefactors stopped
iu the woods aud tackled the puz-
zle, aud were cap\ured half a day
later, still eutangled iu the suare.
A merchant introduced it to a
drummer aud wou the sample-
trunk and head of the latter, both
of which he had wagered ou his
ability to solve the puzzle inside
of twelve minutes. The Rev. Mr.
liarpe worked ou the puzzle all
Hat til-day night, when he should
have been writing his sermon, and
electrified his congregation next
day by saying:
•‘And now, fourthly, my breth-
ren, Lyman’s father was his wife’s
son-in-law; and—er—heml We will
stand and receive the bene-
diction.”
An unwonted clamor proceeded
from the W. O, T. U. hall, aud
eighteen different shades of hair
blew out of the window. SingYek,
late ot Hong Koug, received the
puzzle from his Suuday school
teacher, neglected his work all day
broke bis adding-machiue, and iu
bis frenzy figured on the flaps of
sixteen white shirts aud indelible
ink, and then laid the matter be-
fore his joss, and, because the lat-
ter would not work it out whipped
him all the following forenoon,aud
then in despeiatfon renounced
Christianity as a stmre and return-
ed to paganism.
The puzzle permeated every
nook and corner of the village.
Two popular members of the Y. M.
V. A. slapped each other’s faces
over it. Colonel Hooks pulled the
nose of a tourist to whom he was
trying to sell land, and all the boys
in town fougbt over it.
One John 1’. Smith attacked the
the wife of his bosom with feroeiiy
and a scythe and knocked her into
the well, where shespeedly drown-
ed. A mob chased Mr. Smith
thirteen geographic miles and gave
him live minutes iu which to show
cause why he should not be lynch-
ed. whereupon he declared that the
demise of Mrs. Smith was attribut-
able to.Divine Providence and a
stone over which site had stumbled
the same throwing her into the
well.
This announcement resulted in a
prolonged and earnest debate up-
on the part of the string band
which continued until the sheriff
and posse rescued Mr. Smith and
bore him to town. Court was iu
session at The time, and the case
came np for trial on the morrow,
It was dark when the jury was sent
out! They canvassed the case
thoroughly. Hicks who was among
them detailed the puzzle and ex-
hibited bis tally sheet.
At four o’clock in the morning
the door was burst open and the
jury fell down the stairs, fighting
like demons. The stove had been
overset and the building was soon
in tiames. The hook and ladder
company swilled up and ran over
three gentlemen, two of whom im-
mediately assaulted two firemen,
whereupon the whole body of the
latier attacked the entire jury
impartially.
The alarm of tire aroused the
village and tlie majority of the
eitizeus appeared on the scene.
Judge Begad denounced' the fire-
men for rioting iu the face ot the
destroyer aud was attacked by the
foreman of the company. Several
citizens went to the assistance of
the Judge, anil three men whom
he had lined for selling whisky
jumped in to help the foreman.

FOBEIQN NEWS-
Berlin, June 18.— [Copyright
18&2 by New York Associated
Press.]—The leading topic of con-
versation iu court aud diplomatic
circles is the projected conference
between the czar and Emperor
Frauds Joseph. It is understood
that the conference was first sug-
gested by Emperor William at the
recent meeting betweeu himself
aud the czar at Kiel. Communica-
tions on the subject have since
been exchanged betweeu St. Pet-
ersburg and Vienna which promise
to result in the exteusiou of a form-
al invitation by the czar to Emper-
or Frauds Joseph to take part
this autumn in an imperial huuting
expedition at Spala, Holland, The
utmost importance is attached to
arrangements teuding to modify
the Russian entente with France.
The official feeliug here is san-
guine enough to hope thut a per-
sonal exchange of views between
Emperor Francis Joseph aud the
czar will succeed iu detaching the
latter from his Freuch alliance and
lead to a permanent set tlement of
the irritating Balkan question.
No special significance isattach-
ed to King Humbert’s visit to Ber-
lin.
The lates phase of the report of
a reconcilation between tlie em-
perorand Prince Bismark discloses
the hollowness of the whole affair.
The Deutche Allgemeitte Zeit-
uug, Bismark’s new organ in Col-
ogne, denies that any overtures
looking to reconcilation have been
made by either side.
The government is watching
with the keenest interest the de-
velopment of the approaching
elections in England. Its sym-
pathies are altogether with the
conservatives, as it is known that
the advent of Gladstone to power
would be directly against the in-
terest of the dreibuud.
Kiug Humbert is specially con-
cerned. as a Gladstonian victory
would imperil the entente with
Lord Salisbury as to the co-opera-
tion of the English aud Italian
fleets against France under certain
contingeuces,

ARSENIC AND AMMONIA.
Remarkable Contrast In The
Effect Of Two Poibonb
On The Complexion.
The slow absorbtion of many
poisons changes In some more or
less modified form the complex-
ion, but arsenic and ammonia
show their effect about as quick-
ly as auy. The popular belief that
arsenic clears the complexion, has
led many Billy women to kill
tbemselvea with it iu small con-
tinued doses.
It produces a waxy, ivory-like
appearauce of the sklo during a
certain stage of the poisoiuug, but
its terrible after effects have be-
oome too well known to make it
of common use as a cosmetic.
The effects of amtuouia ou the
oomplexiou are directly the oppo-
site to that of arseuio. The first
symptom of ammonia poiaon
which appears among those who
work iu amtuouia factories is a
tiou of the skin of the nose aud
forehead. This gradually extends
over the face until the complex
ion has a stained, blotched and
and unsightly appearance. With
people who take auimoniA into
tbeir systems iu smaller doses as
with tbeir water and food, these
striking symptoms do not appear
so soon. The only effect of the
poison that is visible for a time is
a general unwbolesomeuess and
sallowness of tbe oontpelxiou.
Many people are r.lowly absor-
bing ammouia poison without
knowing it. Tbe use of ammouia
in the manufactures has greatly
increased of late, and it is un-
questionably used as an adulter-
ant iu certain food preparations.
Official analyses have plaiuly
shown its use even in BUch cheap
articles of every day consumption
as baking powders. The contin-
ued absorbtion of ammonia in ev-
eu minute quantities as au adul-
terant iu tood is injurious uot
merely from iis effect upon the
complexion, but because it des
troys the coating of the stomach
and causes dyspepsia and kiudred
evils.
Professor Long, of Chicago, is
authority for the statement that
if to fifty million parts of water
there is one part ammonia, the
water is dangerous.

Meanwhile Mrs. Hicks sprung
the puzzle at the sewing-circle that
afternoon, and the minister ran up
against it and fell, aud thus it was
spread all over towu. The children
took it to school and flooded the
teacher, aud there was a grand
strapping carnival all one after

stores. The barber sprung it on a
patient, and cut off his ear in the

The number of the voters was so
reduced that a rival town secured
the county-seat, and with it went
everybody who could get away.
Tbo newspapers both went. Many
of the buildings were loaded on

county-seat. And finally a cyclone
razed all the remaining buildings
aud put au end to the village for
good and all.

Memphis, Tenn. June 14.—Now
that the great flood has about pass-
ed away in the south the follow-
ing estimate is made of tbe loss-
es occasioned by the high water,
a loss unprecedented iu the his-
tory of floods:
Missouri—Wheat aud corn des-
troyed (500,000 acres). $10,000,000
homes ruined, $1,000.000; cattle
drowned; $50,000; railroad prop-
erty destroyed, $250,000; total $11-
300,000.
Tennessee—CottoD loss, $600,
000: wheat loss $1,200,000; homes
and cattle, $100,000; total $1,900,-
000.
Kentucky—Loss $200,000.
Arkansas—Farms inundated,9,-
338; loss as follows: Corn, $2,500-
000; cotton $5,000,000; other pro-
ducts, $2,500,000; total $10,000,
000.
Mississippi—Loss, $1,000,000.
Louisiana—Loss, $6,000,000.
Total losss, $26,400,000.
This estimate does not include
stagnation in business among tbe
merchants aud transportation
lines. A conservative estimate
of the amount of damage caused
by the loss from the high waters
from Kansas Oity to New Orleans
reach the enormous figure of
$50, (KM),000.
