Tie Empress Eugenia and Joscnhime's
Rinw

A romantic incident is related of the
way in which Fate seemed to decree
that the Montilos and the Napoleons
should be un ted. The story is of
Josephine's betrothal ring, and is in
this wise: Eugenie's father, while
serving in the First Napoleons army,
resided i'll Paris. In 1909, little girl,
Maria Montijo, about three years old,
went to play in the Tuilleries with her
nurse. There she met little boy who
gave her gold ring. As the children
were strangers to each other, and did
not meet again, the owner of the ring
remained unknown, and SO the little
Maria kept it for a playthlng. That
ring was Josephine's and the little boy
was Louis Napoleon, who had run
away with the ring. The loss of the
ring was bad omen to Josephine, for
year afterward she had to resign in
favor of another. Little Maria kept
the plaything till she grew up. At SIX
teen years of age she married, and be
came the mother of Eugene, whose
birth took place May 5, 1896. Her
mother engraved this date on the ring
she had worn SO long herself, and when
Eugene was older, gave 1t to her.
When quite child, Eugene went to
London to pay visit; there she be
came acquainted with Louis Napoleon,
who saw the ring with the date and
Josephine's name Oh it, and knew it
had belonged to her From thus cir
cumstance Louis looked upon the little
Montijo as attached to his house, and
twenty years afterward, it became a
fact. Alter time, Eugenie's mother
came to regard the token as of great
importance, and formed aplan of bring
ing the two families together That
was the secret OF 50 lovely woman as
Eugene remaining single till the age
of twonty-six 4 crown awaited her,
which was never lost sight Of.

Time Gees by Tnrns.

Not always fan Of leaf, nor spring;
Not endless might, nor yet eternal day
The saddest bird Il season finds to sing;
The toughest storm calm may soon al3y.
Thus with succeeding terms, God tempereth all,
That man may hope to rise, yet fear to fall.
A chance may win that b. misehance was lost;
The net thai holds great takes little fish;
In some things ALL in ali things none, are crossed
Few all they need but none nave al they wish.
Unmingled Joys here to man bofall
Who least hath some; who most hath never all.

To the Rose.

The star of love on evenings brow hath smiled,
Shoverine her golden influence with her beam;
flushed Is the ocean wave and soft and mild
The breathing zephyr lull'd is every stream,
Placid and gentle as vesals dream.
The bard of night, the angel of the spring,
Der the Wild Ministries of the grove supreme,
Near his betrothed flower expands his wing
Wake, lovely rose, awake, and hear thy poet sing
The night is past wake, Queen of every flower
Breathing the 5oul of spring in thy perfume;
The pearls OF morning thy wedding dover,
Thy bridal garment is a robe 4 bloom.
Wake. lovely flower for now tie WINTER gloom
Hath wept itself in April showers away;
Wake lovely flower j.! and bid thy smiles assume
A kindred brightness with the rosy ray
That sreaks the floating clouds with the young
blush OF day.

SHpesaiition 81 Vampires.
The Pail Mall Gazette SAWS. :"

The Pail Mall Gazette says: "
" From a case now before the High
Tribunal at Berlin we learn that the
of Fampires-corpses who
are supposed to rise from their graves
at night and suck the blood of those
witt, whom they have held intercourse
III hfe-is still general among the Poles
and Magyars. A Polish gentleman
died at his country seat AT Susirsin in
February last. leaving his family in ex
cellent health. i few weeks after his
death, however, his eldest son was sud
denly and unaccOuntably taken i'll,
his short sickness ending in death.
Similar cases, though not fatal, occur
ed among his near relatives 1t was at
once agreed that the deceased must be
a vampire, and that his visits were the
cause Of this repeated illness. To save
himself from the fate of his brother,
the second son determined to apply
the supposed only remedy, viz, to e1-
hume the body, cut off his head, and
lay it with the feet, while another per
son was TO collect the blood issuing
from the wound TO give TO the remain
ing relatives to drink. He obtained
the assistance of labOrer, naturally
at heavy price, but was prevented on
on his first expedition by the interfer
ence of the parish priest. The next
attempt proved more successful, and
the deed was accomplished. IL had
been observed, however, by some per-
son in the village, and was thus brought
to the knowledge Of the authorities.
The absurd superstition threatens to
cost the desecrator of the churchyard a
three months Imprisonment. That
was the virdict in the first instance,
and though the Court Appeal has can-
celed the sentence, the High Tribunal
seems resolved to confirm it"

A OE:g RAJ. Railway.

\ one rail railway has been In sue
cessful operation between Raney and
Montfermeil, near Paris, for two years
! The locomotive for onc-rall road has
four wheels, two being placed, one at
the front and one at the rear of the en-
CINE, bearing on the rail These give
the direction and are double-fanged.
The other pair of wheels are placed IN a
traverse plane passing on a line in front
or the tire-box. They run on oak plank
of macadamized road, as the case may
be, and are the driving wheels. This
sort of railway can be built in
France for about 81, 900 per mile
The locomotives weigh six and ten
tons; the former runs fourteen miles
an hour, drawing, besides its own
weight, thirty five tons mp grade Of
two feet in a hundred the latter Will
draw fifty tons at a rate of eighteen
miles an hour up the same grade; on a
level it would draw one hundred and
eighty tons. This system is the inven-
ton of M, Larmanja, a French civil
engineer, and many believed that it
may be successfully used on turnpike
roads, with the grades and curves which
the common highway usually has.
The WHEAT CROP OF CALIFORNIA
During the last five years the average
product of the wheat crop of California
has been II, 10000 bushels, or 1000,
900 sacks. The surplus exported in
1870 was 5000, 900 sacks Thus far the
present year 3, SOC, 900 sacks have been
exported at a very considerable adj
vance upon last years prices. IT is
estimated that an area was planted this
year sufficient, With the usual amount
of rain, to produce 9,000,0 900 sacks As
only about 1000, 0O0 sacks are required
for home consumption for food and
seed in the state, there will be left with
the ordinary yield 100000 sacks for
export. These sacks will weigh about
one hundred pounds each, and estimat-
ing that it viii yield to the exporter two
and one-half cents per pound Git is now
worth three, or one dollar and half
per bushel, the total valne of the wheat
surplus for the present year will be
SIT, 800, 000 This, with the surplus of
wool, wine and other products, will
doubtless make an amount that will
excel the gold export of the state

The international Workingmen' So
cicty.

The London Times gives an authen-
tic account of the International Work
ingmen's Society. Although only
founded nine years ago, it numbers
throughout the world, 100000 mem
bers. Started by German In Berlin,
it has It's central bureau in London.
and branches in this country. It Is
aided by the following secret societies:
The Marianne Brothers of the Repub
lie, of Lyons and Marseilles, the many
organizations of Russia and Poland
and the Carbonari all over Europe The
central bureau IN London has no presi-
dent, but consists of secretary
general and ; members. Each coun-
try is a branch which IS d vided into
sections Weekly, each central bureau
sends reports to the London Office OF,
first, the political and commercial
events of the neighborhood second,
additional members; third, financial
state; fourth, names of principal mer-
chants and tradesmen fifth, names OF
principal prOprietors and capitalists;
sixth, copies of minutes of meetings
held The popularity of the associa-
ton is, chat while appealing to the
working classes of the world by an ar
gument which the simplest can cOmpre
bend, it has philosophy and political
economy of its own sufficiently specious
to attract theorists and would-be re
formers, and reaches the loftiest and
basest natures equally well.

The CHINESE AND THE TELEGRAPH
The telegraph is naturally enough q
great mystery to the Celestials. A line
about fifteen miles long having been
constructed near Shanghai, the natives
supposed that the messages were car
ried along the wires by devils In the
employ of the foreign barbarians. To
this they made no special objection I'M
til Cfinaman CHANGED to die suddenly
i'll house near which stood one of the
telegraph poles. 1t then occurred to
another native genius that one of the
devils mad come down from the wire
and killed the man, whereupon his
compatriots made short work of the
dangerous apparatus, and they are now
without telegraph facilities. -

The TrneLife.

The mere lease of years is not life
To eat and drink and sleep; to be CON-
posed to the darkness and the light; to
pace round the mill Of habit, and turn
the wheel of wealth, to make reason our
book keeper, and turn it into an imple-
ment of trade-this is not life In ali
this but poor fraction of the conscious
ness of humanity is swakened, and the
sanctities still slumber which make it
the most worth living. Knowledge,truth
love, beauty, faith alone, can give vi
tality to the mechanism of existence ;
the laugh of mirth which vibrates
through the heart, the tears that fresh
en- the dry waste within, the music that
brings childhood back, the prayer that
calls the future, the doubt which makes
us mediate, the death that startles US
with mercy, the hardships that force us
to struggle, the anxiety that ends in
trust, are the nourishments of rational
beings.

TO Make a Horse Follow You.

Place bride on him and turn him
into large stable; approach him, ,caress
him for few minutes, then take hold of
his bride and turn him towards you, at
the same time touch him lightly over
the hips with long whip. You will
now lead him the length of the stable,
rubbing him on the neck and speaking
to him in steady tone of voice. Ev-
cry time you turn, touch him lightly
with the whip,to make him step up close
to you. He will soon learn to hurry up
to escape the whip and be csressed, and
in less than one hour you can make him
follow you around without taking hold
of the bride. If he should refuse to
follow you give him few sharp cuts
above the hind legs, and he promptly
obeys. Give the horse four or five les
sons of one hour each for as many days,
and he will follow you anywhere.

The old Fasn,oned Mother.

}
- Thank God, some of us have had an
old fashioned mother Not a woman Of
theperiod, enameled and painted, with
her great chignon and hustle; whose
white jewelled hands never felt the clasp
of baby fingers; but a dear old fash
ioned, sweet voiced mother, with eyes
in whose clear depths the love light
-shone, and brown hair just threaded
with silver, laying smooth upon her IA
ded brow. Those dear hands worn with
tell, gently guided our tottering steps in
childhood, and smoothed our pillow in
sickness, even reaching out to US in
yearning tenderness, when her sweet
spirit was baptised in the peariy spray
of the river Blessed is the memory of
an old fashioned mother. 1t floats to
sus now like the beautiful perfume from
some wild wood blossoms The music
Of other voices may be lost, but the en-
.trancing memory of her will echo in our
souls forever. Other faces may fade
away and be forgotten, but hers will
shine on until the light from Heavens
portals will glorify their own. When
in the itful pauses of busy life our feet
wander back to the dear old homestead,
and crossing the well worn threshold,
stand once more in the room, so hal
lowed by her presence, how the feeling
of childish innocence and dependence
comes over ua, and we kneel down in
the motion sunshine, streaming through
the open winGow-iust where we knelt
long years ago by our mothers knee,
lisping .Our Father How many times
when the tempter lured US on. has the
memory of those sacred hours, that
mothers words, her faith and prayers,
saved us from plunging into the deep
abyss Of sin. Years have filed great
drifts between her and US, but they have
not hidden from our sight the glory Of
her pure, unselflsh love.
