A SINGULAR WALL.

Walls formed of human bones are not un-
frequently to be met with in some of the an
cient cemeteries III Ethe south of Ireland A
remarkable one, the remains of which may
still be seen, was some years ago in the avenue
leading into the Franciscan Abbey of Kilcrea,
in the county of Cork The ditch was CON-
posed of the bones of the legs, arms and verte-
br9, the lnterstices being filled up with the
smaller bones. 1t was about forty feet long,
seven feet in hight, and six broad At present
these remains have become partly dissolved
from rain and exposure to the weather, and
covered with moss, nettles and other rank
vegetation. These bones owe the regular or
der in which they are placed to the following
cause:
About eighty years ago, an aged woman of
extremely weird aspect, and 1t is said of un-
sound mind, suddenly made her appearance in
the vicinity of the abbey, and after a short
time took up her abode III an unclaimed and
untenanted vault, which she appropriated to
her own use. She always seemed to avoid
intercourse with the people around, and though
she scarcely ever spoke to any person, yet the
hosptable and gOod-natured neighbors occa-
sonaly supplied her with cooked potatoes and
a little milk. She was often seen to drink OF
the Bride, the brook that rlppes by the rum.
Seldom seen III the daytime, when darkness
set in and silence reigned around, she emerged
froIh her charnel- house, and occupied con-
siderable part of the night season in collecting
the bones of generations long passed away,
that lay scattered up and down through the
abbey, and arranging them in the order we
now find traces of them in the ditch. The
skulls she disposed of in the small Gothic win.
dows of the choir and chancel, the frontal or
gans looking on the outer world.
A more ghastly sight could scarcely be con.
ceiyed; yet She fitted them in compactly
that one window remained intact till within Il
few years ago. when, on stormy night, 1t was
blown in, and these fragments OF trail mortali.
ty was scattered by the wind, The only ira
diton that the country people possess OF this
mysterious woman-tor some old people, lately
deceased, remembered her IN their earlier
days--is that she caEse from the North (this is
that quarter OF the compass from winch is sup.
posed 10 proceed much that is supernatural)
After living here entombed some two years
surrounded with vague reputation for sanctl-
ty, and much rcspected-ior she had always
refused money, and scarcely ever roamcd be-
yond the precincts of the aGbey-she suddenly
disappeared ON Christmas morning, and was
never afterwards heard Of.

THE OLDEST MASON IN TIE WoRLD.-The
oldest Mason in the world is supposed to be a
resident of Giles county, Va Mr., David Eaton
The Harrisburg Gazette says he was born in
Ireland, but does not know his exact age. He
has, however, three diplomas-a Blue Lodge,
Chapter and Knight Templar. They all bear
the date of 1912, the year that Mr.. Eaton emi.
grated. The Knight Templar diploma states
that he became knight Templar in 1890, a
little over seventy-nine years ago. He cannot
remember how long he had been Mason be-
fore he became Knight Tenplar, but he thinks
eight or ten years. Say eight years, and he
has been Mason eighty-seven years, and as
initiation, he is now l0S years of age.

A MODEL ANswER.-Josh Billings has turn

SOME of the loil are hard at work, says the
U'orld in Virginia, soaring the negroes who
voted the Conservative ticket into afiidavits
that they did so under intimidation and force.
The m0dus operandi is to summons them up by
orders from ex bureau agents, ana when, ac-
customed to obey these worthless when in pow
er and not understanding they are now out
of it, the enfranchised appear, they are told
they have committed n penitentiary offence by
going for Walker, and the ouly way out of it is
to swear they were forced so to do. Afidayits,
thus gained, are to be flooded into Congress as
preliminary to a re-reconstructiug of Virginia
reconstruction.

A PECULIAR PARsoN-A preacher in Chi
cago recently refused to say grace at the table
when asked, saying it was mere formality
and "the best grace was to eat moderately
well digest your meal, and then 60 to work ant
earn another" For the same reason he re
fused to pronounce the benediction. He wal
too hungry to use the time before ready mea
and too full for utterance after it, we guess.

Good The following version of an ancient
dtty is circulating as means of fixing Van
derbilt in the juvenile mind:
ssThis is the man the bears have torn,
That married the maiden all forlorn,
That took the Wall street bull by the horn,
That tossed Jim Fisk That worried Dan Drew,
That loosed the rate that stole the stock
That lay in the house that Wander Jilt."

A FATHERS SACRIFICE.

Albert G. Drecker is the watchman of the
Passaic river drawbridge on the New York
and Newark Railroad. whose business 1t is to
see that the draw is closed upon the approach
of the trains. On Friday afternoon last, just
before passenger train was to pass the bridge,
the draw was open, and Mr.. Drecker began to
close it. The train was not yet in sight at
this moment, but the watchman knew it was
coming, and that no time should be lost in put
ting the bridge in its proper position. While
engaged in closing the draw, little son of Mr.,
Drecker, ten years old, fell from the bridge
into the deep water below. To save the child's
life would be an easy matter, but Mr.. Drecker
now saw the train laundering along the track,
and knew that the rescue of his boy would in
volve the destruction of the train What was
he to do? We may well suppose it was mo-
ment OF supreme agony. His child was drown
ing before his eyes, and its life could only be
purchased at the loss of many other lives that
were in his hands. God mercifully spare US
all from the bitter anguish of such trial 80
was forced upon Drecker! He stood by his
duty, the bridge was closed, and the train
passed safely over 1T, but the boy ocas drouned.
Little did any passenger in that train dream
at what fearful struggle between a sense of
duty and the natural promptings of the hu-
man heart, the safe passage of the bridge had
been secured.
Such is the story of Albert G. Drecker. His
torians and poets have told us
Glow we'll Horatius kept the bridge
In the brave days of DID,,
but the Jersey railroad servant "kept the
bridge" at costlier sacrifice than the Roman
captain. And what remains? Drecker is
poer man; his position in life is an humble one.
and while his loss is irreparabe, his noble con-
duet may be rewarded. The railway company
owes him heavy debt; the passengers on that
Friday afternoon train should deem it privi-
lege TO contribute to raise monument to the
child, to fifty commemorate the deed, and the
press throughout the land should let his name
be known everywhere.-N. Y. Post.

".TwAs EVER THUs"-The Washington
bellies are in mourning. A calamity has be-
fallen them. Mr.. Antrobus, a handsome young
Englishman of great wealth, and recently con-
nectcd with the English legation, is said to have
left the iplomatic service and taken holy or
drrs at Rome. Here is another lamentable in
stance of disappointment in high life. The idea
of so charming and delightful u young swell es-
Gaping the matrimonial moose which caught old
Baron BodiscO, the Viscount Treilhard, Mr..
Howard, and others on the diplomatic corps
on duty in Washington is narrowing to the
pouting beauties of the capital. 1t was bad
enough to have so nice 3 young fellow order
ed away but that he should don monks cowl
was too bad. BY all means let father Antro-
bus return and be the confessor to the fair
ones whom he has SO cruelty escaped. Until
then, let the girls chant Antrobus, par robiS-
cum.

a FIRST MORTGAGE

Upon the entire Land Grant OF the Company,
amounting to l3,s24,0O0 acres. Three million acres
Of this land in the Platte Valley in Nebraska, ad-
mitted to be equal to any in the West The sales OF
land were opened in Omaha July 81 and 40 900
were sold during month thereafter, at an average
price OF over $500 per acre. While part of the re-
mainder OF the land is Of little value for agricultural
purposes, there is another part from which O con-
siderable sum will bc realized. The value OF the
Land Grant is largely enhanced by the extensive coal
mines, which are now being worked for the supply of
the surrounding country well for the railroad
and by other valuable mineral deposits especially OF
copper.
THE LAND GRANT BONDS ARE RECEIvEDin

demand from actual settlers will give them certain
market. They run twenty years and pay seven per
cent. interest in currency.
Although the Company have disposed Of al their
bonds, yet as they are offered in market, W. con-
tinue to I'LL orders at the current rates.
We have no hesitation in recommending both the
First Mortgage and the Land Grant Bonds as very
valuable and perfectly safe investment.
