THE NEW YEARS ROSE.
by EBEy Z. nExFoRD.

John Carthew stopped before the florists
window. for rose vas blOssoming there. un-
ike any he had ever seen before. 1t was
white as a lily on the edges Of its petals, aud
golden at its heart. 1t looked like rose Of
Paradise.
81 will buy that for Dora" he said.
1T is unique" the florist said. 81 have
never seen any other like it. raised it my
SELF and have tried to grow others from 1t, but
without success"
Half an hour later, girl with beautiful
face was bending over the rose, with soft
smile on her lips and John Carihew was
standing BY her.
81 couldn't think Of anything else to bring
you to remember me Jy," he said.
81 don't want anything to make the re-
member you" she answered, softly.
"I did not believe you would forget me,
he answered. "Dut this rose made me think
of YOU. because It was SO different from other
roses. V'ha, is it Tennyson says? Something
about some ones being queen rose Of the
rosebud garden Of girls?' I'm not good a,
quoting poetry, yon know. Every time there
is a new blossom you mus. think that am

The torpedo factory of ID. Woolf, sit
uated on the shores of Newark Bay, at
Greenville, N. j., blew up with terri
fie explosion at three o'clock P. NJ. on
Wednesday of last week. Two persons
were killed instantly, two were fatally
injured, and eight others were terribly
cut, bnrned, and lacerated. There were
in the building at the time eighteen
persons engaged in packing paper caps,
such as are used by children on toy pis-
tolls, and one of the boys. supposed to
have been young Zsickle, dropped a
box which he had packed, the concussion
causing the general explosion. The
building caught fire, but the prompt at
tendance of the police and fremen pre-
vented any further destruction. The
building was torn to pieces, the roof
being raised from its support. This
is the fifth or sixth explosion which has
taken place since the work began three
years ago, but none of the others were
attended with any fatal results.

THE OLD CANOE.
BY ALBERT PIKE.


Where the rOeEs arc gray and the shores are steep
And the waters below look dark and deep.
Where the rugged pine, in its lonely pride.
Leans giOomily over the murky tide;
Where the reeds and rushes are long and lank.
And the weeds grow thick on the winding bank;
Where the shadow is heavy the whole day through.
There lies at rs moOrings the old canoe.
Tho useless paddles are idly dropped
Like ses-bird's wings that the storm has Topped.
And crossed on the railing one DER one.
Like folded hands when she work is done
While busily hack and forth between
The spider stretches his silvery screen.
And the solemn owl. with his dull toO-whoo,
Settles dOwnOn the side Of the old canoe.
The stern. half sunk in the Shiny wave,
Rots slowly away in its living grave
And the greeu moss oreeps DER rs dun decay.
Hiding is mouldering dust away
Like the hand that plants o'er the tomb a flower.
or the ivy that mantles the falling tower;
While many blossom OF loveliest hue
Springs up o'er the stern OF the old canoe
The currentless waters are dead and stn.
But the twilight wind plays witlushe boat at will,
And lazily in and out again
II Goats the length Of the rusty chain.
Like the weary march OF the hands OF time,
That meet and part At .he nOOntide chime,
And the shore Is kissed At each turning anew
By the dripping bow of the old canoe.
o, many n time, with ceasess haud
have pushed Il away from the pebhly strand
And padded ID down where the stream runs quick.
Where the whirls wild and the eddies are thick,
And laughed as leaned DER the rocking side
And looked below in the broken tide,
To see that the boats and faces were two
That were mirrored back from the old canoe.
Bot now as lean oer the crumblins side
And look below In the sluggish tide
The face that see there is graver grown,
And the laugh that hear is a sober tone.
And the hands that lent to the light skif wings
Have grown familiar with sierner things;
But love 10 think OF the hours that sped
As rocked where the whirls their white spray shed
Ere the blossom waved or the green grass grew
Ger the mouldering stern OF the old canoe

An autobiography. not so very old, for
its closing date was IS47. Four hund-

together by the dozen sheets, and finally
bound in wrap of black leather. Writ
ten in a fine, pointed hand, difficult to
read at first, but once mastered in its
idiosyncrasy, legible at ease. And hav-

neatly ruled parallelOgrams. but without
any figures or marginal references to
show connection with the writing.
