CAUGHT THE REPTILE. gentle
men residing in Sacramento, Cal, were
startled one evening by loud screams
proceeding from a room occupied by a
lady member of the family. Inquiry
elected the information that ''there was
a centipede on her bed The gas was at
the time turned down quite low, but the
men could see the insect on the bed, and
doubling a towel several times, one of
them cast it over the centipede, and
clutched it tightly to prevent its escape.
One of the gentlemen was somewhat Of
an amateur scientist, and desired ardent
" to preserve the centipede as a speci-
men. Accordingly, the captured insect
was carried in the towel to drug store.
The druggist poured chloroform on the
towel to stupefy the creature and to
prevent the possibility of its escape, and
one of the clerks stood by with an up
lifted club, to strike it should it attempt
to get off. The towel was opened, and
the expectant lookers-on were asGonished
TO find that all the fuss had been made
over a little strip of calico.

"THE DAYS THAT ARE NO MORE
RY NELLIE O. HESTER.


In the sweet and mystic dreamland
Of bright days, that are no more,
oft l find my fancy straylng
To that ever radiant shore,
Where the guileleSs words OF childhood,
As heard them, long ago
Seem to fill the air about me
With the songs / used know.
And they breathe nc faint of sorrow,
Floating out upon the strand;
For they long not for a morrow,
This united, happy band
O. the music sweetest music!
How it floats, in treble clear,
Till its accents, fond and tender,
Fill the brain, and heart, and ear.
Thro' the darkness and the distance
Of the long time passed between,
Comes again the happy vision
OF the sunshine | have seen.
Loving eyes glow thro' the shadows,
And a voice / love the best,
With it's deep and mellow heart-tones,
Walked a chord within my breast.
All. they come, with ceaseless flowing.
These sweet mem ries unto me,
With a solemn, deep-vOlced wa1llng,f
Like the pillows of the sea.
So, close my eyes, and fancy
That am no more alone,
For light touches brush my forehead,
And dear hand clasps my own.
Blessed visions In the shadows
That have weighed upon my heart
In this bright and radiant dreamland,
Life-and drift far apart.
Radiant forms about me hover
Loved ones, from golden shore
There, when earthly scenes are over,
They shall clasp me, evermore.

ssOn the morning of the day fixed for
my execution, I felt measurably resig-
ned. had so long stood face to face
with death, had SO accustomed myself to
look upon it as merely momentary
pang, that I no longer felt solicitous
save that my memory should one day
be vindicated. She for whom had gone
to prepare a home, had already found
one in heaven. The tidings of my Gala
nifty had broken her heart. She alone,
of all the world, believed me innocent +;
and she had died with a prayer upon
her lips that the truth might yet be
brought to light. All this I had heard
and it had soothed as with sweet incense
my troubled spirit. Death, however
unwelcome the shape, was now portal
beyond which I could see one angel
waiting to receive me- l heard the
sound of approaching footsteps, and
nerved myself to meet the expected sum-
mons. The door of my cell opened and
the Sheriff and his attendants entered.
He held in his hand a paper. 1t was
doubtless my death warrant. He began
to read it. My thouhts were busted
elsewhere. The words full and free
pardon, we're the first words to strike
my preoccupied senses. They affected
the bystanders more than myself. Yet
SO it was Iaoas par1omed for an Of
tense I had aaever committed !
s'The real culprit, none other, it is
needless to say, than he who sought and
abused my hospitality, had been mortal
ly wounded in a recent afray in distant
city, but he lived long enough to make
a disclosure, which had been laid be-
fore the Governor barely in time to save
me from a shameful death, and con-
denim me to cherries and burdensome
life. This is my experience. My
Judgment, as yours, in the case before us,
leads to but one conclusion, that ofthe
prisoners guilt but no less confident
and apparently unerring was the judg-
ment that falseley pronounced my own.
We no longer 1mportuned our fellow
juror, but patiently awaited our dis
charge, on the ground of inability to
agree, which came at last.
The prisoner was tried and convicted
at subsequent term, and at the last
moment confessed his crime on the scat
fold.
