Connor had risen. He stood up try

captain with his eyes as dry as two

"Ive got my death, boys" he said,

log.
They raised him and bore him away.
In an hour he was at home in the little

There, at last, he opened his eyes. Old

Cremation In PENNSYLVANIA.
From the Washington (Pa.) Evening Repo

From the Washington (Pa.) Evening Reporter.
On Tuesday, at $3.50 P NJ, the ami
mails 1.-TWO sheep were placed in coffin
and showed into the retort, which was
speedily closed, and the process of in
cineration commenced. DR.. LeMoyne
was present and directed all the move
ments. The sheep were ordinary ami
mails and had undergone no prepare
ton except that of being killed. Joseph
Ross had made a box or coffin five feet
long, fourteen inches wide and fourteen
inches deep, of common pine boards.
In this the sheep were placed, faces up
and the lid nailed down. The retort is
SO constructed that a pcephole remains
open through which the process of
burning can be watched. In thirty
minutes the box crumbled and had been
reduced to ashes. Everything relating
to the experiment was watched with
great interest. At little distance away
the smoke descended to the earth, and
parties were stationed at this point. to
ascertain if any scent or smell of burn
ing flesh escaped into the air, but
nothing of the kind was detected. That
far, at least the furnace had filled its
expectations. Although the present
experiment consumed great amount
of fuel, the fremen think that twenty
bushels Of coke will reduce human
body to aches. On Wednesday morn
ing, about So hours after the furnace
had been closed, the iron door which
closed it was removed in the presence
Of the doctor and few friends. Moth
ing remained of the bodies and the
coffin but about a gallon of dry, dusty
ashes, and the cremation liz the furnace
was pr Pronounced a grand success. On
Tuesday afternoon when they were
placed in the furnace the bodies of the
two sheep weighed one hundred and
twenty-six pounds, which WAS COM
pletely reduced to ashes, in bulk that
would not more than fill gallon meas
ure. This experiment shows cremation
to be entirely feasible, and now the
question presents itself, "Will it be-
come popular ?" Aside from the preiu-
dices growing out of habit and educa-
tion there can be little said against it

WHAT CUPID SAID,

The Love God came to me and said,
Ihe Fates decree that thou must die;
AND ere the sun bis course hath sped,
NJ llfeless mus thy body lie;
but This one boon the gods will give''
SOFTLY the Love God whispereth)
I 11 choose, since thou no more may st live,
Inc place and fashion of thy DEATH"
Then answer made [ in this wise:
F" Death would be robbed of all alarms
If one glance of my darling's ewes
Could slay me, folded in her arms.n
And then the Love God made reply.
Fair is the answer thou dost give;
Be mine that death if gods might die,
Thy punishment shall be-to ive.'

THE IDIOT BOY.

Tt hal pleased God to form poor Ned"
4 thing of idiot mind,
1t, 10 this poor, unreasonlng lad,
G Vi had not been unkind.
<Oisi Sarah loved her helpless child,
Whom helplessness made dear,
Aud 6e was everything to her,
WAC knew no hope nor fear.
She knew his wants;
She understood each half-articulate call
And be was everything to her
Aud sue to him was all.
Thus they loved for many year,
Nor knew wish beside;
Till ags, at last, on Sarah came,
Aud she fell sick and died.
He tried in vain to waken her;
He called her Ger and DER;
They told him she was dead
Tue sound to him no import bore
They laie her in the narrow house
Tuey sung the funeral stave
But when tae funeral train dispersed,
H. lotered by the grave.
The rabble boys that used to ieer,
Waene'r they saw poor Ned,
Now stood and watched him by the grave,
But not s word they said.
They came, they went, and came again,
TIL night at last came on
And still DC IOltered by the grave
It'll every one was gone.
And when he found himself alone,
He quickly removed the clay;
He rai,e the coffin up in haste,
Add bore it swiftly away.
He bore it to his mothers cot,
Aud placed it on the floor,
And, III his eagerness of joy,
He barred the cottage door.
He lifted out his mothers corse
And placed it in her chair,
And then he heaped the hearth,
And blew the fire with care.
He placed bis mother in her chair
And in her wonted place;
Again he blew the fire that shone
Reflected on her face.
And pausing now her hand would feel,
And now her face behold;
~'' Mother, why you look SO ,.ale?
Say, why you are SO cold /"
It bad pleased God from this poor boy
His only hope to call;
Butsoou again welcome death
Restored to him his all.

An Old Bible.

Joseph Philbrick, of Hampton, is
possessed of an old English folio Bible,
printed in London, 1883, consequently
nearly three hundred years old. It's
dimensions are 16 by III and II inches,
and it's weight twenty-seven pounds.
1t is printed in old English type, illus
trated with unique and quaint wood en-
cravings, and bound in very stout
leather, with brass guards on the cor
ners and centres of the covers. The
traditionary history of this old book
is that one of the ancestors of the Phil
brick family was master Of an English
vessel which was captured by French
man-of-war. The French vessel came
very near being wrecked, but through
the superior skill or seamanship of
Captain Philbrick, escaped the disaster.
Grateful for their salvation, the French
men restored to Captain Philbrick his
freedom and his vessel. The Bible had
been taken by the Frenchman with a
former prize, and the superstitious sail
ors, suspecting it to be the Jonah of
their ill-luck, were about to cast it into
the sea, when Captain Philbrick begged
them to give it to him, and he took it
to London, where he had it rebound in
its present style.
