PLAIN MISS .CAREW.

shall never forget that happy summer
at Harpswell, quaint old peninsular town
up the Casco bay. don't know just how
we happened to go there, but how pleased
every one was with the old-fashiOned
houses, and the cottages built on the banks
of pretty coYes, and the Atlantic booming
and laundering and foaming right under
our windows Dear little cottages, with
piakzas and balconies and slender chimneys,
and poplars bending over the roof loving
ly And strong, more substantial farm
houses, with narrow windows and tiny
panes of glass gardens filled with poppies
and dahlias, and always beautiful; per
funny lilaos, meadows fresh with butter
cups and clover and tall marguerites.
Deep green woods, fields of corn, and every
where a great quantity of roses And such
massive, rugged rocks, and grand views
from the hills overlooking the sea and all
over the island that peculiar hoarse, musi-
cal sound, called the "rote, comes in from
the ocean and adds plaintiveness to the
lovely summer days.

TIMELY TOPICS.

There is one phase of the crime ofmur-
der that is never published. The crimi-
nal in the commission Of his crime putl
himself beyond the pale of earthly law.
This criminal that always escapes justice
is the suicide. The law once attempted
to indirectly punish the deed by the con-
fiscation of the suicides property, but as
this punished only the innocent heirs it
was abandoned. So, also, was the bar
barous attempt at post mortem ven
body of the suicide and burying him at
the cross roads. Now, although the crime
is still murder, there is no attempt at
furnishing the criminal, who is beyond
human penalties.

Injuries by Animals.

Owners of wild beasts or beasts that
are in their nature vicious are liable
under all or most all circumstances for
injuries done by them, and in actions
for injuries by such beasts it is not ne
cessary to allege that the owner knew
them to be mischievous, for he is pre-
sumed to have such knowledge, from
which it follows that he is guilty of neg
ligence in permitting the same to be at
large. Though the owner have no par
ticular notice that the animal ever did
any such mischief before, yet if the ami
NAL be of the class that is .ferG 1aGtttrCe
the owner is liable to an action of dam
age if it gets loose and does harm. Own
ers are liable for the hurt done by the
animal even without notice of the pro-
pensity if the animal is naturally mis-
chieVOus, but if it is of tame nature
there must be notice of vicious habit.
Damage may be done by a domestic ami
NAL kept for use or convenience, but the
rule is that the owner is not liable to an
action on the ground of negligence, with
out proof that he knew that the animal
was accustomed to do mischief. DOmes-
tic animals, such as oxen or horses, may
injure the person or property of another,
but courts of Justice invariably hold that
if they are rightfully in the place where
the injury is inflicted the owner of the
animal is not liable for such an injury
unless he knew that the animal was ac-
customed to be vicious, and in suits for
such injuries such knowledge must be
alleged and proved, as the cause of action
arises from the keeping of the animal
after the knowledge of its vicious pro-
pensities Clifford Of the United
States Supreme Court.

The Emperor William is the fifth male
member of the Hohenzollern family who
has lived to celebrate his golden we'd
ding. The first case was that of Johann,
surnamed the Alchemist, born about
1903, and who died in l464. The three
sons of Frederick William I. had also
more than fifty years each of married
life-namely, Frederick the Great, Prince
Henry, and Prince August Ferdinand of
Prussia. OF the four sons of Frederick
William Ill, three celebrated their sill
yer wedding and Prince Charles, brother
of the present emperor, who married the
sister of the empress, was within day
or two ofthe golden ceremony in 1877
when his consort died.

One object of many people in going
abroad is that they can live and travel
more cheaply in Europe than they can
in the United States, or at least think
they can. A correspondent of the ST..
Louis Republican, writing from Geneva,
takes issue with the impression. He
says that any one may occupy good ten
room house in the better quarter of
st. Louis, keep two or three servants
and dress and live in average American
style for from two-thirds to three-quar-
ters of what the cost would be in South
ern Switzerland. The average cost per
individual cannot be placed at much
under 50, 800 per annum, if one wishes to
visit and reside in different European
cities, and lady friend of the CORE
spondent had just been obliged to turn
her face homeward after an eight
months stay, because the $4,000 given
by her father for years absence in
Europe had lasted her only the shorter
period of time. European travel is like
everything else, expensive or reasonable,
aeeOrding as the tastes of those partici-
pating in it make it so.

The camel-breeding industry is prom
ising in Arizona. Three years ago a
herd of those animals was taken to
Yuma, the intention being to make them
serviceable as beasts of burden. The
attempt was failure, the climate SEEM
ing to disagree with them, and it was
found that they were not so useful as the
little mules. The owners turned the
camels loose and they roamed along the
Gila river, apparently enjoying their
liberty and profiting by it. They have
bred literally and appear to have become
acclimated and domesticated to the re-
gion, Thriving as though they had been
in their own native Africa. 1t is thought
the new generation of camels will be
used to the alkaline waters peculiar to
the Southwestern section, and can be
made serviceable in transporting the
mineral products of that country across
the long deserts of sand to places where
they can be profitably worked. At any
rate the owners of the rejected and wan
dering beasts feel that there is money in
their camels, and will hereafter devote
some care to the breeding and rearing of
them.

The following incident, related by a
San Francisco paper as having occurred
on board Pacific Mail steamship, shows
the stuff that sailors are made of "At
eight A. NJ, while setting the awnings, a
sailor slipped overheard. The ship was
going some twelve miles an hour. They
had boat in the water, manned by
four men and the third mate, in fifty
two seconds after the sailor went over,
and in four minutes they had him in
the boat, a long ways astern. When he
fell in the water he had on boots with
the legs cut off, which he kept on. He
lost his hat and deliberately swan for
it and put it on. When picked up he
had his sheath-knife in his hand, hav-
ing drawn it to be prepared for a stray
shark. On being taken aboard he took
q hand at an oar, and helped. hoist the
boat on returning alongside"

question:;
Not one raised head or even made q sug-

And the barber kept on shaving.
"Don't you see, Mister Brown"
Cried the youth, with a frown,
" How wrong the whole thingis
How preposteIous each wing is,
How fiattened the head-is, how jammed down

In short, the whole owl, what an ignorant

Or you'll soon be the laughing stock all over

And the barber kept on shaving.
"Ive studied owls
And other night fowls,
Aud tell you
What l know to be true:
An owl cannot roost

Ever had his legs slanted,
Ever had his bill canted,
Ever hud his neck screwed
Into that attitude.

I've made the white owl my study for years.
And to soe such job almost moves me to

Mister Brown I'm amazed
You should be so gone crazed
As to put up a bird
In that posture absurd!
To look at that owl really brings oil dizzi-
ness;
The man who stuffed himdon't hall know his

And the barber kept on shaving.
"Examine those eyes.

Taxidermists should pass

Look more like an owl

Stuck up there so stif like side OF coarse

In fact, about him there's not one natura

Just then, with a wink and a sly normal lurch
The owl, very gravely, got down from hi
perch,
Walked round and regarded his fault-indinG

(Who thought he was stufed) with anc,

And then fairly hooted, as il he should say,
