rings and gold bracelets were found on the
romans; and lying beside others were
purses containing gold coins. Several
skeletons found elsewhere are on exhibit
ton under glass cases in a building in
Pompeii Some died with their hands
over their mouths, trying TO keep out the
ashes. One male figure was found IN a
street near the stabi@ gate, lying prone on
his face, with large key in one hand and
a quantity of gold coins in the other.
Searching for his money he had tarried
too long, and was caught in the tempest.
In some cases the victims appear to have
sought yaulted chamber, and, lying on
their sides, with their heads resting on
their arms, awaited their fate. Terror
could be traced in the distorted features
Of other skeletons. But shall not longer

Even as the mystic UpaS Angs
It's deadly spell Ger Indus vale
Till glowing vine and blossom fail
And faint beside their native springs
So, friend, the shadow Of one life
In which fruitless anguish strives
MAY reach aross an hundred lives
And darken them with tears and strife.
Ny life has been that Upas tree
Its baleful dews and odors fall
Like Autumn rains, and wither all
That love hath made too dear for me
But, as those wondrous plants disclose
Where Heclas frigid splendors shinel
Rich CLEANS of summerhood divine
Amid the hushed, eternal SHOWS
And as the holly lights the wood
With crimson fires no frost can fade,
The saddest heart by FIRE betrayed
May gid some barren life with good
And /, whom thou hast sought for years
To win to paths more straight and plain
Pour like stormy April rain
The wild libation Of my tears
On the pale urn that darkly holds
The ashes of thy buried hope,
Whose blushing buds shall never ope
In bloom on life's most barren wolds

The following story comes from Ireland !:
Two men had q quarrel in liquor shop
They adjourned outside to settle the dis
pute. The first man, being from Con-
naught, Immediately seized lump Of stone
and let ny at the head Of his opponent,
who dipped his head and missed the stone,
which went through an expensive plate
glass window, and did much damage. A
magistrate was called upon next morning
to determine which Of the two should pay
the cost The evidence clearly showed
that the aim was q good one, and that il
the second man had not dipped his head
he would have been struck. Therefore \
said the magistrate, "he must pay the
damages, as il is certain the FIRST man
didn't intend to injure the window, and
the window would not have been injured
if it had not been for the act Of tho second
man.

A German Sunday.

The German idea Of Sunday is anything
but Puritanic. 1t is the very opposite.
1t is for them day Of amusement. 1t
no unusual thing to be asked bya German
on Monday morning, "Well, how did you
amuse yourself yesterday" There are
those among the Germans, Of course, who
respect and keep the Sabbath; but then
there are always enough of them who do
not; and to judge by numbers which
frequent their places of amusement on Sun
day--the parks, beer gardens, and public
halls--a stranger might possibly be temp
ted to inquire whether the Germans had
any idea of Sabbath Men, women and
children, older men with their wives, and
younger ones with their swecthearts, throng
these places every Sunday, and enjoy them
selves, careless Of what impression they
make on their fellow-citizens Of American
origin, to whom the sound of brass instru-
meuts on the Sabbath air is anything but
welcome or edifying. In the cold days of
winter, when the parks and beer gardens
are shorn of their beauty, the German
seeks amusement in some hall instead.
Here he treats himself to compound Of
rather heterogeneous clcments-to music,
beer and smoke and to all Of them at once.
Any Sunday afternoon in the cold of win.
ter, you may find him, with his wife or
child, or both, in some large hail. one Of
a hundred or five hundred, smoking his
meerschaum or his cigar, slipping his beer,
wine or coffee, and listening to selection
from Meyerbeer or Beethoven. Were il
summer, he would add the odor of roses to
the fumes of his tobacco and the smell Of
his beer; for he is as fond Of flowers as
he is Of any Of these, and is never happier
than when the air, trembling to the notes
Of the orchestra, is redolent with tobacco
smoke, the perfume of the rose, heliotrope,
and hop, aud he himself in the midst of
them all.-AtiaRtic Monthly.

Discovery Underground.

Employees of the Pan Handle Rail
road company have been digging a
well at the edge of Alum Creek, for a
water supply at the new round house.
Twenty feet below the surface of the
water, the wofkmen found the skele-
ton of an animal, the like of which
is not now to be found. Not knowing
the value of this remnant of antiqui-
ty, the laborers beat the main body of
the skeleton to pieces, but an appre-
ciative gentleman came along in time
to save the bones of the head, which
are in an excellent state of preserva-
tion, and not torn apart. Many of
the teeth are still in their places,
though loose. The skeleton was
found after digging through six feet
of yellow clay and two feet of blue
clay. The blue clay was deposited
in the glaciel and iceberg periods, and
scientific gentlemen modestly esti-
mate the age of the skeleton at fifty
thousand years, or more. The head
is now in Secretary Klippart's office.
The bones of the nose indicate that it
belonged to a roofing animal, and it is
assigned to the hog family, although
it is different from the heads of pork
ers of this age of the world.-Colun,-
