have just como out, and it may be said
OF them that they arc ahead of oil the

not only requires thought and under

very many valuable hints for teachers.

might she carry such an enormous head
of steam; for, after passing over that ten
miles in eight minutes, there lay ten
miles of fve-feet up grade, and fourteen
miles of twenty-feet-to-t he-mile depres-
sion between us and G; and it is now
eleven o'clock and forty seven minutes.
Now the engine was hot in earnest.
The furnace door, smoke-arch and chin
ney, ali were red; while she seemed to fly
on as if the very evil one himself operat-
ed her machinery.
"Six minutes carried 1s over that ten
miles; and we darted by the last station
that had lain between us and c..
Now we had fourteen miles to go; and
my time showed eleven o'clock and fifty
| three minutes.
..If live,' said I to myself, 4 will
make it. and we plunged down that
twenty-foot grade with all the steam on.
Persons who saw the train On that wild
run, said that it was so soon after they
heard the first sound of her approac h
! when the strange object, which looked
as If it were flame of fire, darted by,
and then the sound Of its travelling died
| away in the distance, that they could
hardly convince themselves they had
really seen anything. It seemed more
like the creature of wild dream than a
sober reality.
"And now let me tell you, that no en-
CINE ever beat the time we made on those
fourteen miles. Those great wheels, seven
feet in diameter, spun around so swift
that you couldn't begin to count the
revolutions. The engine barely seemed
to touch the track as she flew along; and
although tie track was as true as it was
possible for it to be, she swayed fearfully,
and sometimes made such prodigious
jolts that it required considerable skill
for one to keep his feet. No engine could
hold together if crowded to a greater
speed.
"N ell, just,as I came to a standstill in
the depot at c the big clock doomed

A Christmas Home.

ioud and laughing welcome to the merry
Christmas bells,
All nail with happy eladness the well known
chant that swells:
we list the pealing anthem chord, we hear the
midnight strain,
And love the tidings that proclaim a Christ
mas tide again,
Bat there must be melody of purer, deeper
sound,
rich keynote, whose echo runs through all
the music round;
Let kindly voices ring beneath low-roof or
palace dome,
For these alone, our Christmas chimes, that
bless a Christmas home
blithe and joyous welcome to the vines and
to the leaves.
That hang about our household walls, in dark
and rustling sheaves;
Up with the holly and the bay, set laurel on
the board,
And let the mistletoe look down while pledg.
ing draughts are poured
But there must be some hallowed bloom, to
garland with the rest
All, all must bring toward the wreath some
flowers in the breast;
For though green boughs may thicklY grace
low roof or palace dome,
and hearts alone viii truly serve to deck q
Christmas home.-Biiza Cook.

a Sparrow Fight.
Indianapolis News

Indianapolis News
Going up Tennessee street Yesterday
afternoon NeWs reporter witnessed a
fight between two English sparrow cocks,
that would have been to the death had
he not appeared upon the scene. as in
most encounters, there was a woman in
it, that Is, g hensparroH, who stood out
side at short distance waiting the result
OF the COMBAT, ready to fly away with the
successful bird. They paid no attention
to the n. T. until he was just about 10
step over them, when they separated and
flew away, the hen accompanying the
one that was on top. He evidently had
his rival foal, and was peclSing his head
with much vigor. The punishment must
have been severe, for the one underneath
sent forth the most plteous cries, and
was apparently unable TO help himself.
When released, however, ne showed that
he was still game by pursuing the pair
as far and as fast as his remaining
strength would permit. He soon gave
up the chase, however, and lit upon the
limb Of neighboring tree, where the
reporter left him. pantine for breath, and
smoothing oul his rutfled feathers.

The Village Girl.

The sun went down and evening came, the
quiet summer even,
A mass of golden purple lay between the
farms and heaven:
A weary troop of men went by, their days
hard lanor done,
Tired and cOntented toward their homes they
wendell one by one.
Close by the field where all day long the hard
hot strife was raging,
A cottage by the wayside stood, hall desoiate
and ageing, .
And on it's worn low steps there sat silent
girl and unused
And watched the troop come slowly by, IN
weary line confused.
She looked like one who sought a friend, she
scanned each mans face nearly,
High burned the color in her check, too high
for sunset merely;
She sat so quiet looked so WARM, so flushed
with secret heat,
It seemed she listened as she gazed, ano 1elt
her own heart beat.
But when the men had all gone past, and not
q word was spoken,
The girls courage failed at last, and all her
strength was broken.
She wept not loud, but on her hand her weary
forehead fell,
And large tears followed, one by one, as from
o burning WELL
s'Why dost thou weep? For hope may break
just where the gloom is deepest?
o! daughter, hear thy mothers voice, need.
less tear thou weepest;
He whom thy eyes were seeking for, whose
face thou cOuldst not see,
Ia 10 nt Gaa hn nj cftn
he lives for thee"
Shiyering the maiden rose like one whom
awful dreams awaken,
AS If some grim fOrcboding all her soul IN her
had shaken;
She fingered not, she sought the place where
late had ragged the fight.
And stole away and swiftly fed and vanished
out of sight
Late she retired; with silent steps she came to
meet her mother.
The pallid eyelids strained no more with tears
she fain would smother;
But colder than the wind at night the hand
that mother pressed,
And whittier than winter cloud the maideE's
check and breast.
snake me grave, o mother dear; my days
on earth are over!
The only man that fled to-day, that coward
was my lover;
He thought Of me and OF himself, the battle
field he scanned,
And then betrayed his brothers. hope and
shamed his fathers land.
80 mother have looked for him where'er the
dead are lying,
But none of all the stricken bear his features
calm in dying;
Now will | live no more on earth in shame tc
sit and sigh,
