Plossom the lilies white as snow;

Jessamine bangs on her verdurous night.
Columns arise in this valley alone,
Fpires and arches and tables of stone;
Kever a cheer mr burst ot glee
Speaks to their mar Mod symmetry.
(Sweetly the song bird pipes in tbe sty.
Softly the leaflets murmur and sigh;

Only these wood-notes mark the hours,
Only these wood-notes break the spell,
Guarding the silent city well.
Infinite calm enfolds the hills;
Infinite peare the valley fills.

A STRANGE SIGNAL.
The night was unusually boisterous
when the 6hip "Viking" unexpectedly
struck the coral reef. Tho next wave
carried hef ever the rwuf, ami alio
lodged on a shoal in comparatively
smooth water near 'an telet whose out
line could be dimly perceived through
the gloom.
This was indeed an unpleasant pre
dicament. Tho captain supposed he
was many miles from the nearest land
and could not imagine what island
this could be to which they had been
(carried by treacherous current No
lights were to bo seen, and whether
the islet was uninhabited or occupied
by savages and cannibals they would
not know until daylight One or the
other it was sure to be. . Being young
and romantic. Waller Durand, who
was a passenger on board, was less
alarmed than his companions, and the
lively fancy of his artistic brain was
busy picturing the possiblo scenes that
the morrow would reveal
But terror overcame most of the
crew, who know too well the miseries
and perils of shipwreck on the isles of
the l'ncilic. This causel them to defy
the authority of Captain Barnard. At
daybreak a number of them lowered a
boat and 6tarted for the laud, prefering
to loiirn their fate at once rather than
wait until tv multitude of savages
should board the wreck and massacre
the crew.
Wbon the sun rose a lovely island
was discovered rising in bold crags
and lofty hills covered as with a man
tle of velvet by the opulent vegetation
of the tropics. Near the shoro huts
wore sckm and thin, columns of smoke
curling upwards. With, the glass,
canoes were also perceived en tho
beach and men moving towards thorn
in animated groups as if preparing to
comv off to the ship.
Captain Bernard at first determined
to resist any such, an attempt. But
tho supply of arms was so insignifi
cant and the departure of so many of
bis crow hal so weakened his power
to resist attack that be decided to
meet the savages peaceably and thus,
perhaps incline them to money. The
ship was in no immediate danger of
going to pieces. The weather was
again serene, and it was hoped that
the fears of uttaek might not be .real
ized. If worst came to worst they
would sell their lives dearly.
A ware of the lovo of bright 'Colors
and deooratiotis common to salvages,
it occurred to Walter to bring out his
paint box and by means of it to divert
the attention and arouse tho good hu
mor of those wbd should first come on
board. The idea was original and re
quired a cool head and steady hand.
A dozen large canoes full of savages
were now approaching the wreck.
The carvings ou tho neorost boat
showod that it bore the king of the
island. The natives, whose chief
clothing consisted of feathers and tat
tooing swarmed over the sides, and
seeing the peaceable disposition of .the
,crew, at first ran helter skelter over
the decks, examining everything with
childish curiosity and laying their
;hands on every object which attracted
their covetousness. But their -spears
,and beautifully carved clubs were not
;pleasant objocts at the time, and their
entire bearing seerued like thafcof wild
i animals which play with their victims

The king was a magnificent speci
men of a barbarian, tall and 'power
fully built He was completely cov
ered with the most elaborate tattooed
designs, as if clad in & garment of
Oriental embroidery. He was evi
dently vain of the beauty of this sav
age finery, this royal dude of the
lJuci(io.
With a courage born of desperation
Walter began to block out the figure
of a warrior with dabs ol brilliant
color such as would attract the eye of
a savage. Tho chief looked on wilii
exclamations of delight Never had
such splendor been seen by him be
fora Several savages collected around
the chief and also gazed on the paint
ed canvas with eager eyes.
As if in anticipation of a tragedy
that could not bo much longer defer
red, the king 'aid his hand on Waiter's
shoulder nnd with a gesture that indi
cated that ha had adopted him. said
something in a tone of authority. At
once the avages dispersed again over
tho ship and began tho work of

happy crew were bound and thrown
alive into tho canoes. The others
-were cut down without mercy. Be
aiHtence was useless, as the savages
' .outnumbered the crew ten to one.
During this awful scene Walter
I etood trembling for his own life and
) horror-stricken by th fate of his com
panions. But no barm came to him,
for tho king stood by firmly grasping
him by the arm. both to shield the
youth from attack and to prevent him
from attempting to escape, which
would have proved fatal.
When tbe massacre was over the
savages returned to tho island with
their captives and plunder. They
wore welcomed home by throngs of
women and children dancing and sing
ing songs of trxjuiph.
Walter never saw any of the crew
of the ship again, nor did he for a
long time dara to ask what fate bad
'4befallen them.
J " But tho king had not forgotten that
Walter practiced the arts of painting,
and soon signified that he would like
to see some more exhibitions of what
lie considered a magical art Fortu

gufrevde' in uniting the kif? undo
aU:id that the mca.is by which ho
wrought his magio were still on the
wreck. Accordingly the king took
him out there to get his color-box.
While paddling to tha ehl Walter
conceived a plan to esccpo. which
might bj carried hr.o executioa pro
vided tho stores in tho wreck were
ttill in good order, which happily
proved to be the c.se.
He found in the carpenter's shop a
quantity of sealed pots of paint to
gether with a supply of largo brushes,
varnish and linseed oil intended for
painting the ship. These ho caused ,
to be transferred J to tho canoes, and i
also several spare lopsails and ether
fails, and several coils of ruauila rcyie i
and a few small tackle blocks, lie
alio look his own color-box and
brushes for the finer work that might
be required.
Walter began with sketch portraits
of the prettiest girls and the hand
somest warriors of the island, and also
decorated the war canoes and clubs.
He won immense applause and popu
larity by theso eHorts. This gave him
courage to proceed further and to sug
gest to the king the construction of a
royal pavilion right on tho beach out
of tho sails ho had brought from tho
ship. The scheme struc his copper
colored majesty as simply immense.
'They were all enlisted to cut and &ew
the canvas. With considerable skill
Walter succeeded in erecting a spac
ious tent with partitions and a fly.
Ho then suggested that for the pur
pose of decoration and protection from
the rain the tent should bo painted.
This idea was also very heartily re
ceived. Walter hud now reached that
part of his plan which required tbe ut
most circumspection in order to avoid
tho suspicion of the natives, who wore
by no means stupid and were over on
the alert as e could see, to prcvont
all attempts at escape. Walter there
fore betriui first by decorating tho in
terior of the tent with words similar
to those lie proposed to paint on the
outside. This would disarm suspicion.
As these interior decorations wore
greatly admired, he then ventured to
dooorate tho entire exterior of his
tent in u similar way; further, to dis
arm -suspicion, ho decoratod every side
exactly tho sumo as the side which
faced tho sea. When the undertaking
was at last complete the roof of tho
tent appeared of a yellow color; on
this, in black letters, seven foot long,
was the legend: '-a white captive
w hekk; land with cai tio" The
same words were painted on the walls
of tho tent, but with Vermillion, bor
dered with black on a white ground.
Walter had to arrange his colors as
far as possible with his meaas so they
could bo discerned a long distance.
This enterprise, ot course, took months.
When the pavilion was pronounced
compiote the king gave a grand feast
under its shelter. But years passed
on before Walter saw any evi .leuoeof
its. usefulness to tho ingenious captive
himselt. He rested on his laurels,
lived a li.'o of indolence, and waited
as patiently as he could for relief from
what was in fact an intolerable ex
istence to a young man of culture and
ambition.
But at last a sail appeared Moving
in; tbe oiling past the island. Then
she changed her course and beaded
directly for that part of the shoro
where the pavilion stood. When less
than two miles away she hoisted and
lowered her colors three times. Walter
understood it as a signal. He care
fully avoided any show of eniotioa
before the natives, and when tho ves
sel again stood away did ot loose
hope, for he was sure that his signal
bad been seen, and that thk was tbe
answer. Ho was up at dawn and
cautiously walked down to tie beaSh.
There he saw a man-of-war's boat ap
proaching with caution exactly as he
bad suggested.
But his movements had been per
ceived and suspected. With yells of
rage the warriors swarmed at Lis
heels, hurling their spoars after hfon.
As the boat touched the sand he sprang
on board, but the savages rushed into
the water following the boat as H
moved off and wounding two or three
of her crew. They were repelled by
a volley of small arms and Walter ws
filled with regret when he saw bio
friend nnd protector, tno king, borne
back to his pavillion mortally wounded.
Treed from the savages, tho boat sosn
reached tho ship, and Walter stood
once more a free man under his oaua.

HOW LENSES ARE MADE.
Tlie Art of Manufacturing- Spectacles Re
duced to a Sclunce.
The art of making spectacles, says
tho Popular Science Monthly, has been
reduced to a science. The bit of glass
to bo formed into a lens is fastened by
means of pitch to a small block of
hard rubber so that it may be more
readily handled. It is ground by be
ing pressed against arapidly revolving
metal tool whose curvature is equal
and opposite to that desired in the lees.
This, is known as the "rough tool" and
is made of cast iron. It is mounted
on a vertical spindle, and is kept
moistened with emery and water.
Several grades of emery are used in
sticcessiou, changing from coarse to
line as the grinding proceed As a
result of this process the glass has a
rough eurfatio and is no longer trans
parent It is now transferred to tho
"fine tool." This is made of brass and
has its surface as truo as possible. It
is compared from time to time with a
standard curve in ordor to iasuro ac
curacy. In this second grinding the nbraid
ing material is nouge (carefully cal
cined sulphate of iron). Finally tho
lens is polished by being presscl
against a piece of cloth powdored with
rouge and fastened to the rotating tool.
The glass is now loosened from it i
block, tunv;d over, and tho reverse
side of tno (ens ground. When this
has been accomplished the lcu3 must
be cut down to the propor shape for
mounting in too spectacle frame. It
is placed on a leather cushion and held
firmly in position by a rubber-tipped
arm while a diamond-glass cutter pass
ing around an oval guide traces a sim
ilar oval on the glass below.
The superfluous glass outsido the
oval is removed by steel plccers. tho
rough edges ara ground smooth on
Scotch wheels and the lens is re:idy for
mounting. The glasses for small tele
scopos, microscopes, burning glasses
and the like ar ground in the same
fashion.
HOW VFRY HONEST.

the 4 ol lrrlty
The opponent of fre silver coinnge
shout loudly for an "honest dollar.' ,
1 hoy never bad sik-U a spasui of in-
tcgrity before, fh txar people '
mut be saved from the deli atoues."
"The do!!nr must contain one hundred
cent." It is tbe old err of"-wo!t i
wolf," but the wolf this time is dressed
in sheep ikin and doing1 the khoutlng
himself. Never to'ore, tay thj Be.
publicans, would a dollar purchase so
much of the necessities of life. , Thoy
miht have truthfully added that
never before in the past three '
decades did it take so much
hard work to earn the doilar. j
A h!h-prieod dollar means cheap !
commodities. Cheap commodities
wages and poor returns froin legiti- I
mate industry. The people want a '
dollar that will do something more !
than purchase the necessities of life, j
They want a dollar that will pay debts !
and taso aud in earning the dollar
to liquidate a debt they don't want to
give any more hard labor than ihey
would have to have given at the time
the debt was contracted. There are
two kinds of debt; one in dollars, tbe
other in hard work. For instance, a
farmer borrpws 1,M)0 at a time when
wheat is f' per bushel. Five hundred
bushels of wheat would pay the debt
The farmer pays the interest from
year to year; the money power con
tracts tbe To'.ume of currency; as
the volume contracts the purchas
ing power of the dollar increases;
the relative price of farm products
decrease, and finally the ' price of
wheat falls to $1 per bushel, and the
former concludes to pay bis debt. At
the time the debt was contracted, if
the farmer wanted $2 he gave one
bushel of wheat for it Now that the
debt must be paid, tho farmer for ev
ery $2 must give two bushels of wheat.
In other words, when tho $1,000 djbt
was contracted five hundred bushels
would have paid it or tho product of
twenty-five acrts at twenty bushels per
acre. But undor the contracted cur
rency and dear dollar regime it takes
one thousand bushels of wheat or the
product of fifty acres at twenty bush
els per acre. Tho farmer's debt stood
still reckoned in dollars, but doubled
in hard work. Notice how the dear
dollar works in paying tbe fixed sal
ary of a county officer, la eastern
Kansas la 18t6 wheat was $2.60 per
bushel. Let the salary of a county
treasurer be 3,8J0. Then twelve
hundred bushels o? wheat would have
paid the taxes to meet that salary.
This year wheat is 75 cents per bushel
in Kansas. Let the salary remain the
same and it will take four thousand
bushels of wheat to meet tho taxes, or
three and one-third times as much
labor in the wheat field to pay the
same salary as it would have taken in
1866. Now, apply this to the fixed
salary of all public officers, for the
people pay all the taxes that pay all
the salaries. The point to keep in
mind is that the county treasurer's
salary, remaining the same in dollars,
Increased in purchasing power three
and one-third times undor the dear
dollar idea, while the farmer's labor
4o pay tbe taxes to meet the salary in
creased 'three and one-third times.

Volume and Circulation.
Too many men cannot or do not
seem to distinguish between tlie vol
ume of money of the country and its
circulating medium, whereas there is
a great difference. The volume of
money of the country is over $1,600,
000, 000. while the actual circulation
the money in use among the people is
not .more than one-third of that
amount The report-of tfie treasury
department for the last month says
that the sum of $741,G68,20S is held
in the treasury, which is almost one
half of our entire volume of currency.
Add to this amount held in the banks
as reserves, that that is hoarded away
and shrinking from investment and
our actual circulation does not exceed
$600, 000, or less than $8 per capita.
No sort of dissembling or lying can
got around theso facts. When any
man no matter who he may be, un
dertakes to say that tho money hoard
ed in the treasury, sub-treasuries and
banks is a part of tho circulating me
dium .ha is surely lying or is grossly
Ignorant Will any man of sense say
tbe $100,000,000 of gold held in the
vaults of the treasury for a
quarter of a century for the redemp
tion f greenbacks is, of has been at
any time in all these years a part
of the circulating medium? Will
a sane man dare say the gold
and silver now stored behind tho
gold and silver certificates is in
any sense a part of the circulating
medium, or, that in any sense are to
day performing the functions of
jaoney? While this coin stored in the
vaults of the government is considered
a part of the volume of money, prac
tically, it is in no more sense money
than tlie equal valae of corn, wheat
or any other non-perishable product
would be if stored in its stead. Yef,
in the face of all these facts duly at
tested in every .report made by the
treasury department, we find men and
newspapers declaring that we have a
per capita circulation based upon our
whole volume, ne-half of which tho
secretary of the treasury says is locked
in Uncle Sam's strong boxes! Alliance

What I'lutocracy flloftm.

who cultivate their fields. Nor are
any of that class in tho South. TUo

How Shonld Capital end Labor Share.
Clearly, each should have the pro
portion it contributes toward produc
tion. According to tbe lowest esti
mate made by statisticians, labor in
the United States contributes seventy
two per cent Upon this basis capital
should receive twenty-eight per cent
of the productions. Mr. Edward At
kinson, a noted statistician, who has
considered the subject exhaustively,
says that labor contributes ninety per
cent and capital ten, towards the
wealth produced in this country. Ac
cording to his figures, labor should re
ceive nine and capital one.
Whether the highest or tho lowest
figures are correct it is very appar
ent that capital receives much more
than it earns, and thereupon labor
must receive less. If, as the public
ists say, the rate of interest should
only compensate the lender fo his
trouble and hazards, it would seem
that capital's earnings should be upon
the same considerations. Some enter
prises or industries are more hazard
ous than others and therefore, in the
former capital should receive a greater
compensation than in tbe latter. It Is
an easy matter to determine the trouble
and risks in all cases, and the contri
bution that each makes and to regu
late wages accordingly. This principle
Is just between man and man.
The Alliance At .cate: If the
Farmers Alliance had collapsed half
as often as it nowspaper opponents
have given out news to that effect, It
would long ago have been forgotten;
but instead of being forgotten, it is
being remembered in a very lively
way. and the remembrance promise
to bo'orao even livelier as the presi
dential contest approaches.
