were homeless.
1T came hard to pay the interest on
the mortgage" said Mr.. Gardiner in a
hollow tone, "and now we haven't
place to lay our heads"
"God will provide" responded Mrs.
Gardiner, trying for his sake to stifle
her own sadness.
"You have me left to you," said Gill
bert, tenderly. "I am strong to work,
and you shall never want while live.
A portion of the furniture had been
saved. This Gilbert removed to little
unpainted house offered by a neighbor,
and the old couple we're as comfortable
as circumstances would permit.
A month later the following letter was
received:
" FRIEND GARD1NER-I the boy who
called himself Gilbert Henshaw is with

The next day Gilbert started for
Stony Brook, and was absent two weeks.
Then again his happy face frightened
the old peoples humble home.
"I have news for you," he said,
(Which will give you both pain and
pleasure.
"Give us the worst first, and the bet

Mr.. Gardiner. "You are Walter Brad

A look of utter astonishment over

"And you have given me home, and

Milton,
Shall we meet no more, my love, at the binding
OF the sheaves,
In the happy harvest fields as the sun sinks
low,
Whom the orchard paths are dim with the drift
Of fallen leaves,
AS the reapers sing together in the mellow
misty eves2
Oh happy are the apples when the south
winds blow
Love met us in the orchard ere the corn had
gathered plume
Oh, happy are the apples when the south
winds blow
Sweet as summer days that die ween the months
are in their bloom,
When the peaks are ripe with sunset, like the
tassels of the broom
In the happy harvest fields as the sun sinks
low.
Sweet as summer days that die leafng sweeter
each to each
Oh happy are the apples when the south
winds blow
all the heart was full of feeling Love had
ripened into speech,
Like the sap that turns TO nectar in the velvet
Of the peach,
In the happy harvest fields as the sun sink
low.
Sweet ss summer days that die at the ripenint
OF the corn
oh, happy are the apples when the soutl
winds blow
Sweet as lovers ickle oaths sworn to faithles
maids forsworn,
When the musty orchard breathes like melloV
drinking horn
Over happy harvest fields as the sun sink
low.
Love 1T us at the dying OF the mellow autum
ewes
oh, happy are the apples when the sout
winds blow
Wlen the skies are ripe and fading, like tn
coors OF the leaves,
A I'd the reapers kiss and part at the binding {
tho sheayes
In the happy harvest fields as the sun sinl
low.
Tl,n tho reapers gather home from the grs
and misty meres-
Oh, happy are the apples when the sout
winds blow =
Then the respcrs gather home, and they bel
upon their spears
Love whose face is like the moons fallen pa
among the spheres
With the daylights blight upon it as the 81
sinks low.
Faint as far-off bugles blowing soft and 10
the reapeTs sung
Oh, happy are the apples when the sou
winds blow
Sweet as summer in the blood when the hea
is ripe aud young,
Love il sweetest in the dying, like the sheav
he lies among
In the happy harvest fields as the sun sin

A terrible death from phosphorus is
reported. A young man left Paris to
visit his friends at Lyons, and as soon
as he got into the carriage he lit match
by scratching it with his thumb nail,
and piece of the incandescent phospho.
rus penetrated under the nail and made
a slight burn, to which he paid no at
tention. But after an hour the pain be-
came very great, the thumb swelled,
then the hand, and next the forearm.
He was obliged to alight at the first
station and send for a medical man, who
declared that instant amputation OF the
arm was necessary. The patient insisted
on postponing the operation for few
hours until the arrival of his father, for
whom he had telegraphed. But before
the latter could reach the spot, it was
too late; the poisonous matter had gain
ed the arm, then the shoulder, and any
operation henceforth was impossible.
The young man died twenty-seven hours
after the burn, in horrible suffering.

A New Haven policeman has devised
a new kind of policeman's club. 1t con-
sists of brass covering to an ordinary
club, attached to it by springs, and
colored to resemble rosewood. If man
should seize it he would only get the
brass cover, leaving the policeman ample
opportunity to WELD the club itself.

They have libel suits in Japan all the
same as in America. The editor of the

Items OF Interest.

Object of interest-To swell the

A storekeeper advertises thirteen
pounds of sausages for dollar. That's
dog cheap.
The papers speak of a man who has
turned up missing" In other words,
he was found lost.
"How long," said crushed tragedian
to ticket clerk in a depot, striking an
attitude, "how long will it take first
class actor to get to Podunk?' "No
longer" replied the clerk, than it
would any other first-class blamedfool !
"Why don't you limit yourself? ?"
said a physician to an immoderate in
dulger in the ardent. "Set down a
stake that you vii! go SO far, and no

subject; "but set it so far off that l

Mary Haley, supposed widow, was
killed in Steubenville, Ohio, by rail-
road accident. Her baby was left to the
care of her brother, who sued the rail
road in it's behalf, securing a verdict of
$4,000. Soon a husband turned up to
claim the custody of the child and the

ready to profit by her death. q
There are 10000 Germans in San
Francisco, and 80, 900 more in the States
and Territories of the Pacific coast.
They take an active interest in politics
and in stock speculations. There are
two daily newspapers published in Ger
man in the California metropolis, and
Ave weeklies, two of them illustrated.
A large proportion of the German ele-
ment is devoted to agriculture and
stock raising, and many lead seafaring
life. Most of the trade with the Mexl-
can coast, and much of the bay and
Sacramento river trade is in the hands
of the German ship owners and shipping
and commission agents.

TREASURE TRovE.


Something I've found on my way
Through earth to-day;
Something OF value untold,
Brighter than gold
Something more fair than the tint
or morning CLINT;
Something more sweet than the song
OF feathered throng;
Something that lovelier glows
Than queenly rose;
Something more sparkling by far
Than yon bright star
Something cherish-how we'll
Words cannot tell.
Something-oh, can you not guess?
Then confess.
Some one has said Love is blind :
Yet do find,
Deep in the heart of my love
My treasure trove

Some of the boys at Carrollville, Wis,
made a midnight parade, wrapped in
sheets, and starting from the village
graveyard. Their idea was to scare who
ever saw them. They succeeded. Three
women went into convulsions at the
sight, one sick man was thrown into a
relapse, and girl broke her arm by a
fall in climbing hastily over fence.

The Chinese quarter of San Francisco
has been undergoing thorough official
inspection. One house had two stories
below the level of the street, divided
into rooms about five feet by eight, con-
tanning two to six occupants each. Lepers
were found, and one of them was said to
be engaged in the manufacture of cigars
that were sold daily in the city. So
thickly inhabited is this quarter, and to
such use is every foot of indoor space
turned, that in hundreds of houses the
cooking is done in the streets or on the
roofs. Some kitchens are built on slen-
der supports overhanging the sidewalks.
Fireplaces are built on the window sills,
with shields of old tin bending outward
for chimneys. Fires we're even found
burning on heaps of ashes laid upon un-
protected wooden floors and against
wooden partitions, the sparks flying in
all directions.

In the public gardens of Vienna bear
underwent an operation for cataract.
He was blind in both eyes. A strong
leather collar was firmly buckled around
his neck, and the attached chain passed
round bar of the cage. Two powerful
men pulled him up, so that sponge
containing chloroform might be applied
to his nose. The first evidence of the
action of the chloroform was diminu-
tion in his struggles; one paw dropped
and then the other. The door OF the den
was opened, and his head laid upon a
plank outside. The. cataracts were re-
moved, and the bear was drawn back
into his cage. Next morning he came
out of his den staring about him, caring
nothingafor the light, licking his paws.
and evidently glorying in the recovery
of sight.
