Live for something, If it be ever so lit
tie. Better to accomplish something
than nothing. Better to look back on
the little you have done than to sigh
over wasted hours and mis-spent time.-
There is work for every one to do, and
he who labors with willing heart and

his labor.
Live for something. Let every leaf

mark of yours upon its pages. Let

give some account of well-spent days.
Live SO that your deeds will be remem-
bered long after you have ceased to be.
Live SO that virtue excel your vices,
and shine brighter as the years grow less

the past without regretting that you
have done too little in this life. Labor
for something noble and praiseworthy.

another shore you will leave behind you

Live for something. There is no one

none who need spend their days in idle

A Plueky Girl.

A tramp entered the residence of G.
III. Kitchen, near New Lebanon, O., re-
Gently during the absence of the family,
and began searching bureau, where
large amount of money had been placed.
Carrie Roberts, young girl, a domestic,
who was in the upper part of the house,
heard the noise, discovered the tramp at
work, approached him unobserved, and
suddenly clutching him by the hair with
one hand endeavored to wrench box of
valuables from his grasp with the other
hand. Finding her efforts unavailing
she released her hold, sprang upon a
chair, secured revolver from the top of
clock and fired at the tramp several
times in quick succession. The latter
dropped the box, ran to the yard, scaled
the fence and escaped. Upon exam
ination it was found that nothing of val
ue had been taken.

Capture of a Devil Fish.

ONE of the fishermen employed by
" LARGO in drawing his nets this
morning found, entangled in its meshes,
veritable devil fish of large size. The
ugly thing was so entangled, and held
on with such tenacity, that it was with
great difficulty, and only after tearing
the net badly, that it was released and
got into the boat. 1t was brought to the
wharf, were number of persons visited
and inspected the monster. The body
is an elongated oval about Is inches
wide feet long from the head to the
end of the spear shaped tail. The mouth,
or rather beak, is exactly like the man.
dibles of hawk, and is placed under
meath the body. The long arms or feel
ers, of which there are eight, radiate
from around this beak, and the largest
of them are upward of feet in length,
making IL feet from the end of the two
longest tentacles to the tip of the tail.
The other arms are from to feet long.
The underside of these feelers, for about
two feet from the tip, are armed with
rows of sharp pointed hooks, increasing
in size as they approach the end, where
they terminate in veritable talons. The
body is of reddish-gray color on top
and pale salmon pink underneath.
The underside is covered with small
suckers possessing considerable power.
Even after the creature had been on the
dock for some time, and was nearly
dead, finger placed to the mouth of one
of these suckers was seized upon and
only released by strong pull. While
lying on the dock the fish exuded about
two gallons of the dark fluid with which
it is supplied, and it uses to discolor the
water, either to conceal itself, or to rem
der helpless its prey. The fluid is of a
most offensive odor and it is of dark
yellow color. The monster, which was
captured just inside of the line of kelp,
would be an unpleasant thing to come
across in the water, and after seeing
him one can thoroughly appreciate the
scene in the cavern, so graphically de-
scribed by Victor Hugo in 1.-THE Toilers
of the Sea-" The fish was cut up and
taken out by the fishermen to their crab
nets as bait, bur the beak and some of
the larger talons were secured by Mr..
Reece. Small fish of this description
have been found in the channel at diff
ferent times, measuring from to 8
inches, but nothing approaching this
one in size has ever been captured in
this vicinity Santa Barbara (Cdl)

HOT COFFEE-AN IDEA FOR THE RE
FORM CLUB.

The reformation of the Incorporate by set
ting up cheap coffee houses in the neighbour
hood of the rum shops has been tried with
much success in England-so great, in fact,
that they have in many cases compelled the
ram dealers near by to close their shops for
want of custom, which the coffee resorts have
drawn away from them. In Bristol, the rum
sellers hearing of the proposed trial of the
plan there, hired every available location in
their quarter, and at first it seemed as if the
reformers would be thwarted because of their
inability to secure suitable rooms, it being
considered necessary to have the coffee houses
in the vicinity of the places where the labor
ing people were wont to resort for their morn
ing and evening drinks The coffee men,
however, out generated the liquor sellers by
sending out wagon every morning and even
ing, and peddling the hot coffee and tea at a
penny mug. The success was so great that
a number of benevolent individuals have
started coffee wagons, and have all that they
can do to supply the demands of the thirsty
throngs which morning and evening besiege
the wagons Cheap coffee and lunch rooms
have also been started in several Eastern cit
les, by Temperance organizations with very
gratifying results.
