Press lhoa his palm with thine How

Ere that tomorrow comes Men have

ID lightly turn the corner Of street,
And days have grown

Before they looked in loving eyes again
Parting at best is underlaid with tears
With tears and pain.
Therefore, lest Sudden Gcaih should come

Some earnest word between the idle talk;
Lest with thee, hencefOrth, ever, night and

COMING from the Mansfield Literal.
the following tribute to General Hayes,
is Of more than ordinary significance,
while not whit more than just: 'sDu-
ring all this time during the eanvass) it
should BE- remembered that Governor
Hayes was the eommander-in-e chief, and
he acquitted himself with eonsummate
skill. He never lost his balance, never
stopped over, never made false move.
From the beginning 20 the end, although
he was speaking every day, ne never
said a single word which any one cared
10 have him recall. He may not have
been as powerful in logic, or finished in
rhetoric as some others. but a better
taetician never headed a party ticket,
and we seriously doubt is any other man
In Ohio could have piloted the ship
through al the intrieacies of the cam
paign as successfully as he.

1t is fact that large stove burns
less fuel, and gives out far more heat,
than small enc. In the latter, the Ca

also less chance to combine with the
oxygen of the air. More smoke is conse.

HOW TO BURY ROOTS.

Says a contemporary There is one
way of burying roots so that the frost
will not get at them, and that is the plac.
ing of layers of straw between the layers
of earth with which they are covered. 1t
is necessary to be more careful with po-
tatocs than with other roots, as they will
not stand the slightest frost without be.
ing injured. Potatoes should be laid in
compact heaps and covered carefully
with straw. Over the straw put about
eight inches of earth. Frost will 60
through almost any thickness of earth
alone, but will not penetrate far below
the nonconducting straw. The earth
should not be packed any harder than
will suffice to keep it in place. BY using
straw and earth combined, time is saved
in uncovering when the roots are wanted
to be got at. If the snow is blown from
the heaps dnring the winter, and the
cold is very intense, it will be we'll to
cover them with coating of coarse man
ure.

Fate of the Passengers and Crew Of
the Burned City Of Waco.

The mate of the English steamer Alb.
diel, which was anchored directly to the
lecward Of the Waco al the time it was
burned off Galveston, reports the fire was
discovered about 1890, the flames spread
ing over the entire vessel in a few
minutes. He thinks she was first struck
by lightning, which ignited the oil on
board, burning everything on the upper
decks before the passengers and crew
could have left their berths and reached
the small boats. He also states that he
heard cries Of distress from five or six
persons in the water. One was the voice
Of a woman or child clinging to spar or
piece of the vessels mast, but they soon
disappeared.
The Abdiel moved up as close to the
burning vessel as possible, but could see
no one on the Waco and does not think
it possible for one Of her small boats to
have been launched.
The steam tug Buckthorn which re.
turned to Galveston at 0:30 # the 10th,
from search outside, reports seeing one
of the Waco's boats, which had been con-
siderably burned and foated off, and
some steps and pieces Of her cabin, but
no trace of any of the passengers and
crew.

The Career OF a Kentucky Slave.
lFrom the Louisville Commercial ]


Twenty-Five years ago Pierce Barber.,
then a hat merchant at Fourthand Main
streets, owned likely boy namedA> ok,
who acted as porter in the store. A few
years later the boy was sold South, and
was hired out on the river Before the
var broke out. Aleck bought himself or
at any rate became free man. He lived
in New Orleans. and when the war closed,
and the black man became an important
factor in the social problem otthe South,
he appeared on the surface, and became
known as Hon. A. F.. Barber, State SEN
ator. Later he became warf-master and
with office came wealth. Two years ago
he visited Louisville for medical treat
ment, and was then Brigadier General of
the State Militia. The Kentuckey slave
porter passed up. ,step,by step, to. place
and power, and few days ago died. the

Tuesdays paper. He died. respected by
his fellow-c,tizens. Brigadier General
Aleck Barber, ex-slave, ex-State Senator.
and ex.wharf master Of New Orleans, was
an evidence d. what the whirligig Of time
has brought - about in the p latter
days. In all these places the man was
never other than~an honor to his State
He rose from servitude to place and
power, and has passed away, to make
room for a new order of things.

WHEAT AFTER POTATOES.

We take the following from the Rurut
Neao Yorker: Where potatoes are grown
extensively it has become common and
very good practice to have few acres Of
early potatoes ready to clear off and sow
to wheat. This can readily be done with
Early Rose, and sometimes with early
planted later varieties. 1t is best, how
ever not to try to get out large field OF
potatoes in time for wheat, for the labor
is so great that it is apt to delay wheat
sowing till late in the season. Wherever
ground can be fitted for sowing by the
25th of September, potato crop makes
an excellent preparation for wheat. Tie
ground is in the best possible mechanical
condition from previous cultivation, and
if the soil is rich enough good crop Is
apt to result,

WHEN TO CUT TIMBER.

A correspondent Of the New Jersey
Herald says: If oak, hickory or chest
nut timber is felled in the eighth month,
August,) in the second running Of the
sap, and barked, quite large tree will
season perfectly, and even the twigs will
remain sound for years whereas that
cut in winter, and remaining until next
fall las thick as your wrist will be COM
pletely sap-rotten, and will be unfit for
any purpose. The body of the oak split
into rails will not last more than ten or
twelve years. Chestnut will last longer,
but no comparison to that cut in the
eighth month, is not subject to be worm.
eaten, and will last long time for
fencing.

Experiments which have been made on

firmly with wmaen wedges driven on the
sides. The cost Of laying these rails is
four hundred and fifty dollars mile.
No iron spikes are required, and the cost
Of track.'aying is about the same as in
the case of iron rails. The highest rate
Of speed for locomotives to pass over such

On looking for tn, steamer | found she
had disappeared, leaving floating mass
of human beings. The screams for help
were fearful. but soon ceased, and we were
left alone on the raft. There were the
captain, second mate, second cook and
four passengers, including young lady.
The next morning it blew gale from the
southeast, making clean breach over the
raft. About 4 A. N. the sea washed over
board the captain, second mate, the lady
and another passenger. About A. N. the
second cook died. It cleared up about 4

SAVING WORK.

House maids can save themselves a
great deal of work by using care in va
rious ways. A particular nail for each
cloth used about the sink, makes it easier
to keep the table at hand in order, and
to cleanse the pots and kettles perfectly,
and to make the pantry shelves neat !.
When water is stopped upon the floor, if
it is wiped up, the rest Of the floor is
saved from soiling. Whole days may be
saved in the course of the year, and any
amount of irritated temper spared, if
every dish aud kitchen utensil is put
away IN its place. An intelligent girl
will save her time and strength by using
her head along with her hands.
