Mr. and Mrs. Bowser.
Mrs. Bowser, in Detroit Free Press.
1 suppose there are other husbands
just as impatient as Mr. Bowser, hut I
really wish he would take matters more
calmly. He had been gone about an
hour the other morning when he came
running back with a telegram in his
hand and exclaimed:
“I’ve got to go to Chicago, and you
and baby can go along . ^ ^
“What time to-nightjdo we go ?”
“To-night! We go at 10:20 this
morning.”
“Why, Mr. Bowser, we can t get
ready in an hour.”
“Yes, you can. Co right at it, and
jump around. You’ve always wanted
to go to Chicago, and now’s your
chance. Just leave everything for the
girl to pick up, and never mind how
you look.”
“But, Mr. Bow
the room, and after the last meal Mr.
Bowser said we would take the night
train home. It was always the way.
If there was a chance for him to take
comfort I was sure to spoil it. We got
back home in the morning, and as we
left the cars I said to Mr. Bowser:
“We’ll tell the neighbors the baby
was sick and we had to come back.”
“No, we won’t !” he promptly re
plied. “There’s going to be no lying
about this. We’ll tell the neighbors
just how it was. You were in such a
rush to get away that you Hung all the
old duds in the house into the trunk.’
“What ! I did ?”
“Mrs. Bowser, don’t elevate your
eyebrows and show your tusks at me
If you ever travel another rod with me
it will be when I am crazy. You can
go home alone. I’m going up town to
see a lawver !”

“But, I don’t want to go toChicago.
“Yes, you do. You’ve always said
y OU wanted to smell of the Chicago
river, and now you shall have it.
Hurry up—you’ve wasted ten minutes,
already.”
I did’t want to go, but I felt that
Mr. Bowser was determined. The girl
washed baby’s face and dressed bim
while I was dressing myself, and I was
not yet through when Mr. Bowser
dragged the trunk into the hall, locked
and”strapped it, and rushed in to say:
“I’ve got everything we’ll need in
the trunk and it’s till ready to go.
Come, now, don’t wait to primp and
pucker.”
“Give me half an hour.
“Can’t give you but sixteen minutes.
If you ain’t ready then I shall take
baby and the trunk and go alone.
I was readv. I din’t look much bet
ter than a woman who had escaped
from a burning house, but I hoped to
improve some after we got on the train.
A wagon came up on the gallop for oui
trunk, and a hack came up on the gal
lop for us, and we got off with a rush.
Half way to the depot Mr. Bowser of
fered the driver 50 cents to drive faster,
and we went through the business
streets as if bound for Canada ahead of
the Sheriff. We got out and hurried
into the depot and into the baggage
room, and Mr. Bowser was rushing
about like a caged lion, when %he bag
gageman asked him where he was
going.
“ToChicago, of course.”
“By way of Milwaukee V”
“No, sir ! What do I want to go by
way of Milwaukee for . J
“That’s none of my business, but
that’s the only way our trains run.
You have got the wrong depot.”
Mr. Bowser looked ten years older as
lie grabbed the baby and told me to
follow him to a hack, and we had an
other wild ride to the other depot. We
rushed in, the trunk came up with a
whew, and the baggageman asked if it
was to go to Chicago. W hen answered
in the affirmative he replied
“Next train goes at 8 o’clock this ev
ening. Plenty of time to get your
trunk checked.”
“But there’s a train that goes at
10:20,” protested Mr. Bowser.
“Is that so? Well, I’ve never seen it
go out.”
“Here’s the paper—look at this time
table !” shouted Mr. Bowser. “If you
don’t run according to the time-table
you’d better advertise the fact!”
. “That is the time-table of the I). G.
H. and M. road,” answered the man,
“while this is the Michigan Central
Our morning train left at 7 o’clock.’
Mr. Bowser couldn’t speak for the
next ten minutes. Once or twice he
reached out for the baby, as if intend
ing to crush out its life, but I dodged
him, and finally said:
“We’ll go home, of course. We
can’t wait here until 8 o’clock to-night.”
“We can’t eh? Well, we just will,
you know ! "We’d'look pretty sueakin
back home after starting to Chicago !”
All I could say would not move
him, and while he was in and out du
ring the day 1 pul in every blessed
minute of the time in that depot.
N either of us got two winks of sleep
during the night on the car, and Mr.
Bowser narrowly escaped coming into
deadily conflict with the conductor and
porter! We reached Chicago in a
mussed up condition, and the first
thing after breakfast Mr. Bowser said
to me:
“I was noticing you at the table,
and you looked awful dowdy. A ou d
better put on some decent duds.
“Certainly. Open the trunk and 1 11
see what I have."
I looked into it, uttered a yell of de
spair. and sat down on the floor.
"Now what are you cutting up
about?” demanded Mr. Bowser.
"Just see what you brought along !"
There were two summer dresses, an
old mother Hubbard, three odd stock
ings, an old knot of ribbon belonging
to the cook, his summer blouse, a pair
of patched pants which he sometimes
wore to work in, three boots, two
towels, the cook’s hair-brush, and
nearly all the soiled linen from the
clothes basket.

The Assassination of Alexander II.
J. E- Muddock, in t he Gentleman's Magazine
The night before the eventful day,
the conspirators worked all through
the hours of darkness to complete their
preparations, and as daylight dawned
on the dreary winter morning every
thing was ready, and each man was
told off to his respective position.
Sophie Peroffskaya drew plans of the
routes and marked the spots where the
conspirators were to wait; and she
herself arranged to take up a conspic
uous position, and to signal the em
peror’s approach. She took under her
special charge two men, named Beesa-
koff and Klnikoff. The latter was
quite a young man, and is said to have
been infatuated with her beauty, and
ready to do her lightest bidding. It
was these two men who actually com
mitted the deed. On the signal being
given by Sophie Reesakoff threw the
first bomb. It exploded with a tre
mendous report, slightly wounding the
horses, partly shattering the carriage,
and killing on the spot tlie Cossack
footman, who rode behind. The coach
man was unhurt, and he implored his
majesty not to alight, saying he would
drive him safe to the palace. But the
emperor was greatly alarmed, and in
sisted on getting out. As soon as ever
he alighted, Klnikoff, who was only a
few yards away, threw his bomb with
so true an aim that it fell at the czar s
feet, but, strangely enough, though the
force of the explosion was tremendous,
men who were standing many yards
away being knocked down by it, while
a huge hole was plowed in the ground,
the emperor was not killed outright,,
but both he and liis assassin fell to the
ground terribly injured. Klnikoff died
very soon afterward, but his majesty
lingered in dreadful agony for several
hours. His lower limbs and part of
the abdomen were torn and shattered
to pieces, and it is truly marvelous that
he survived so long. The rest of the
ghastly story is well known. Of the two
women and eight men who were subse
quently proven to have taken an active
part in the tragedy, one of them(Sablin)
shot himself; Klnikoff was killed by the
explosion of the bomb; two brothers
(Kobozeffs)escaped, and the other four
men and the two women were brought
to trial and sentenced to be hanged,
which sentence was duly carried out on
the 15th of April, except in the case of
Hesse Ilelfmann, who was reprieved
on account of being with child. None
of the conspirators showed any remorse
for the crime, "and they went to their
death without apparent sign of fear.
The extraordinary measures that were
taken immediately after ihe czar’s as
sassination, prevented the other part of
the conspirators’programme from being
carried out. It was a bitter disappoint
ment to them, for nothing was altered,
nothing changed. The czar was no
sooner dead, than the cry was raised of
“Long live the Czar !” and the dropped
crown of Alexander II. was immediate
ly taken up by Alexander III. For
the time being nihilism \yas scotched,
but. not killed. From the blow it then
received it has long since recovered and
is now stronger than ever, and the
Damasclean sword that so long swung
over the head of Alexander II. swings
now over the head of his successor, and
the nihilists are sworn to “execute”
him if the opportunity occurs. But
the tragedy of 1881 taught the authori
ties a lesson, and the looked-for oppor
tunity may be a long way off, though
in the ranks of the nihilists are men
and women who will stop at nothing,
shrink from nothing, that will enable
them to “regenerate their country.”
It may be an ambitious dream, but
rhose who dream it are persuaded that
the time is fast approaching when the
dream will be fulfiilled-

Farm Mortgages and Tlie Tariff.

Iii a recent art iele in t-lie Xew \ ork i
Times',Mr. Frank YYilkersongive? some
figures showing how farm mortgages in
tlie West are due to high protective
tariff. One-half the farms in Michigan
are mortgaged. The assessed value of
all the farms is about si,400,000^000. •
Therefore about $700,000,000 farming i
land in that State is encumbered. It is |
safe to conclude that the face value of \
tlie mortgages is at least $350,000,000. I
The same proportion probe bly applies j
to the other States in the Mississippi:
valley. T. e ten States of Ohio, Indi

Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri,
are, therefore, mortgaged to the
amount of fully $3,500,000,000. The
greater portion of the money repre
sented by these mortgages has been
spent to enable farmers to live. This be

MRS. LILLA JONES is well known to our
people, having taught here before to the en
tire satisfaction of the patrons. Having ta

School at Nashville, she is thoroughly-equip

MRS. COLE needs no recommendation

it for it. and patronize it. A live school is the
life of any place.
To people who are so unfortunately situa
