Hendrick HudsOn's Fate.

A correspondent writing from Winni-
peg, Manitoba, describes an old manu-
script written in 1918 by one of the
mutineeTs who sent Hendrick Hudson
and eight of his crew adrift in an open
boat. They were never heard of more,
and for more than 200 years there. has
been much speculation as to their fate.
The manuscript, written in large, firm
hand, consisted of ten slips of paper ap-
parently torn from book, and tied to-
gether for better preservation. 1t has
been forwarded, together with other
relics, to the Office of the Hudson's bay
company, in London. It's writer, Louis
Marin, thus tells the story of the mu-
tiny:
Zone night, when we were in great
misery, stars fell from heaven in count
less numbers, and we rejoiced to think
for time that the end of the world had
come. Our captain was gloomy all the
time, and the men often cursed him in
his hearing for bringing them to such a
pass. Spring was very tardy in coming,
bnt when the ice-field broke mp we
thrust Hudson and the five blind sailors
into boat and told them to go ashore.
We headed the ship ont that night, and
in the morning the pinnace had disap-
peared. ] became afraid OF the crew
and OF the ship, for every night at mid
night the ghosts of the captain and the
FIVE blind sailors came aboard and
troubled us sorely. While was at my
prayers one night one of the ghosts
told me to leave the ship, and, when we
touched the coast for water, l ran away
| from IL.

Forests Under the Sea.

At Cromer, on the Norfolk coast, says
an English writer, is submarine forest
plainly visible after northwest gale
has stripped the superficial covering OF
sand and shingle. 1t runs out to sea
for considerable distance, paving the
bottom of the German ocean. Southwark
it extends in a broken and irregular
manner for forty miles. In the black
clay OF this ancient forest you may see
the trunks of trees standing, with their
roots spreading through it as when they
grew. You may pick out fir-cones by
hundreds, and disinter seeds of water
lily and buck bean, rhizomes of ferns,
and host of other plants. You would
have no doubt whatever, at the first
glance, that this is only one of the many
fringing submarine forests to which l
have referred, or that it was of the same
age. When you examine the tall cliffs,
however, which rise almost perpendicu-
larly above you for two hundred feet,
you see that this "forest-bed " strikes
underneath them, and is therefore older
than they are. Every slice peeled off
these wasted cliffs by the northwesterly
gales exhibit a new section to view, with
fresh stumps and wood. How far the
forest stretches inland cannot say, but
it must be some distance, for the cliffs
hereabout waste at the rate OF at least
three feet q year.

A Yellow Fever Romance. J..

The Memphis appeal says: DR.. W.
F. Besancny from Jamestown, Miss,
offered bis services to Medical Director
Mitchell. His credentials were perfect,
and, coming at time when physicians
were most needed, he was gladly ac-
cepted. Just as all the preliminaries
had been settled, messenger entered
the Office in haste, wanting physician
to attend Miss D. p. Rutter, who had
been stricken with the fever in her home
in Adam street. DR.. Mitchell turned
to the gallant young physician and said
that he could Immediately be placed on
duty If he 80 felt inclined. DR.. Besan-
cny accompanied the messenger to the
young lady residence. 1t is unneces'
sary to go through the details of the
lingering illness, but only to say that
the physicians attention was close and
faithful, finally resulting in the maiden's
recovery. Soon afterward the doctor
was stricken. True to the instincts OF
her womanly nature, she went to his
bedside and there remained, giving
such attentions as only woman can be-
stow upon the sick, until his recovery.
The doctor, accompanied by Esquire
Quigley and few friends, drove to the
maiden's home, the other afternoon and
there was marriage.

Items Of Interest,

The value OF California's quicksilver

There are different idioms in different
places. In New York the man who
pounds on your door at the hotel will
tell you "brekfus is ready" In Phila-
delphia it's apt to be breakfsh;" in
Chicago, brokfsh," while in Boston
the waiter informs you that the matuti-
nal repast is now waiting to be con-
sumed.
Fitz Hugh Ludlow, in his narrative Of
travel in 1.-THE Heart of the Continent.
tells of an eccentric genius who i'm
proved on the old yarn to the effect that
/" the weather would have been colder if
the thermometer had been longer" by
saving that he had been where I" it was
30 cold that the thermometer got down
off the nail"
ABrighton man has given his pig dose
OF anti.fat one day and dose of anti-lean
the next, for the last three months. The
pig was killed the other day and the
geometrical accuracy in the disposition
OF the alternate strata Of fat and lean was
most wonderful. The proprietors of the
two remedies are given this notice gratis
and can divide the honors between them.
Boston Transcript.
The face Of lovely woman is perhaps
the sweetest thing on the whole mum
dane sphere. It Is a sort of compressed
extract of all that appeals to our sense
or appreciation of the beautiful. It ia
the beacon light that guides many
heart toward the haven Of purity and
goodness, that would otherwise have
stranded on the rocks of temptation and
dissipation, but it will show SCOT mark
as quick as a mans, and woman can
wipe all over it except the exact spot
where the mark happens to be, -BreGk-

MARY AND HER LITTLE LAMP.
Mary had little lamp;
Her lover, all serene,
Extinguished it, for he did not
Want any caress seen.
When Mary saw the lamp put out
She screamed: 40, dear, it's dark
"But bright enough" her lover said,
"With delight Of spark"
What makes the youth love Mary SOP
I'll tell you-shes catch;
And he put out the lamp, you know,
So he might strike match.

Where Are YOa Going z

Where are you going so fast, young man2
Where are you going so fast,
With cup in your hand, flush on your brow
Though pleasure and mirth may accompany
you now,
1t tells Of a sorrow TO come by-and-by;
It tells Of pang that is sealed with q sigh;
1t tells Of shame at last, young man,
A withering shame that will last.
Where are you going so fast, young man?
Where are you going so fast?
The flush Of that wine there is only bait,
A curse lies beneath that you'll find when too
late;
serpent sleeps down IN the depths of that
cup;
monster is there that will swallow you up
sorrow you'll find at last, young man
In wine there is sorrow at last.
There's q reckoning day to come, young man
A reckoning day to come;
life yet to live and death yet to die,
A sad, parting tear, and parting sigh;
A journey to take and a famishing heart,
A sharp pang to feel from deaths chilling dart,
A curse if you drink that rum, young man
The bitterest curse in that rum.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1878-10-25
II.

In one of the narrow and ill-ighted
streets of Sachsenhausen, in an attic of
lofty and unsightly house, sat a
blonde, about twenty years of age, busi-
ly employed with her needle. The furn-
iture of the room was clean and taste
full. The girls whole dress would nothave
fetched many kreutzers but every
article fitted her her as well, as if it had
cost hundreds. Her fair locks shaded
a face frightened by pair of eyes of
heavenly blue. The spirit of order,
modesty and cleanliness reigned in
everything around her. Her features
were delicate, like those of one noble
born her eyes betrayed sleeplessness
and anxiety, and ever and anon deep
sigh rose from the maiden's breast.
Suddenly, steps were heard on the stair
case, and her face lighted up with Joy.
She listened, and doubt seemed TO
shadow her brow. Then came knock
at the door, which made her tremble
80 much that she almost wanted the
courage to say "Come in" A young
man, shabbily dressed, entered the
room, and made low, awkwa rd bow.
81 beg pardon, miss, said he "does
Herr Schmidt live here9"
"Yes, sir. What is your pleasure p
care You his daughter, Bertha9"
"I am."
"Then it is you that I seek. 1 am
from your father.
"For Heavens sake, where is hei
Something must have happened-he has
stayed away all night.
"The misfortune is not very great.
ooh, my poor, poor father what
shall I hearp"
The young man seemed to observe
these visible marks of anxiety with
great interest he said" Do not bt
frightened it is nothing of great i'm
portance. Your father met last nigh
an old acquaintance who invited hin
to tavern. They had supper together
but when the landlord came for his bill
your fathers friend had decamped, ant
left him to pay the score. He had no
sufficient money for this and now th'
host will not let him go until he is paid
and declares that unless he gets hi

"To prison p exclaimed the girl
"Can You tell me how much the bill

"Thrpe forms and half"

"Who is Madame Berg9"

Flowers.

Flowers mark the seasons. While the snow
Yet turks in hollows Of the wood,
And winter-like the winds still blow
While all her fowery sisterhood
Are hiding meath the ground in fear,
Before bluebird dares to sing
That fragrant herald of the spring,
The shy Arbutus ope's her eyes.
And in burst Of glad surprise
We cry, "Lo, spring is here"
So softly spring and summer meet
And part, that we could scarcely tell
When summers reign begins but sweet
On ev'ry hillside, in each dell
Her signet flower she proudly sets.
The breath Of roses everywhere
Is waited on the dreamy cir;
The red rose glows with passions fire;
The white rose paIes with chaste desire
The yellow roses cleaning gold
Is heaped In drifts of wealth untold
While blushing roses dainty fair,
Droop in my darling's sunny hair
In place of violets.
And so the summer days go by
The happy days, too fair to last,
As soft the air, and blue the sky
How should we dream the summers past,
Or that the autumn can be nigh2
All me scme day, with careless feet
We wander toward a loved retreat
To find the aster's purple eye
Upraised to greet the blending sky.
Where roses bloomed when last we trod
Now waves the regal golden rod,
The summer has gone by
And in the winter2 Frost flowers pale,
Like ghosts Of brighter blossoms slain,
Start at bresth-fsntastic, frail-
And bloom upon each window pane
The marvels Of night.
And In the garden, snow for snow,
Their mystic disks the Cbzist-Howers show.
To think the Lord Ehould plan it so
To think the little flowers should know,
And mark the Seasons ebb and flow
In characters SC bright!
