DEEP in the inmost recess of room,
Where books of ancient lore are stored

Where cheerful rays of light ne'er break the

find, within an alcove dark and drear,
DOCK in curious language, quaint and
old;
Written, trow, in some forgotten year,
By some strange hand, now lying still and

And scan the leaves with careless, needless
Little know what in the book abides,
What thought within the ancient volume

My eye rests on a yellow page at last,
Musty and colored by the lapse of time:
Here lies flower that bloomed in days long
Plueked by a hand in some far distant
cline.

Uprising from its petals crisp and sere;
What hand, wonder, plucked it in its bloom
And pressed it in this volume lying here?
Perhaps some maiden wandering mid the
trees,
Shedding its sweetness on the summer bEeze,
Found this fair flower upon its messy Asd
Perhaps she placed it in her golden hair
radiant jewel, which no pearls excel
And some young lover sought the blossom
rare,
To hint a love he did not dare to tell.
Perhaps some thoughtful scholar dropped it
here,
To mark the passage till he read again,
And bound within its prison close and drear,
Through long forgotten years the Hover mas

Wrapped in a darkness keeper than the

The Telephone Abroad.

THE clever Americans who have been
introducing the telephone into practical
use on the Continent of Europe, have
been led to believe that the curious in
strument is in some respects test OF
the height of civilization at which ma
ton has arrived. The manner in which
governments which pass for represent
ing civilized and brilliant peoples object
to the introduction of the telephone
leads one to believe that there is some
thing deficient in their character. So
soon as power like Germany is APP
preached on this subject, hundred
minute investigations are at once start
ed by Governmental authority, dozens of
puerile objections to the introduction of
the free means of communication be-
tween citizen and citizen are raised, and
in short it is evident that the authorities
are afraid of it. The same thing may
be said of Italy, perhaps even in great
er degree is the spirit of suspicion and
the fear of danger manifest. Even in
France, where the telephone is now an
accepted institution in the large cities,
no two persons are allowed to COM
municate directly with each other, but
must send their messages through a
central office, into which a Government
inspector has access during the day and
night. So grevous and annoying are
the regulations imposed by the charmed
circle of authority that it is cause for
establishment that the people suffer
them. That they are utterly helpless
there can be no doubt, and perhaps the
cool and resolute manner in which the
Americans who are introducing the tele-
phone express their opinions of these
regulations to European authorities may
do some good. Without absolute free
dom the highest civilization can not be
obtained, and perhaps when Germany
and France discover this they will be
ready to accord it. As for Paris being
a cosmopolitan capital, where all infiu-
ences are brought to bear, it follows
feebly in the march of progress, pro-
testing as long as it can with any sense
of decency against new inventions, but
always finishing by accepting them. A
leading evening paper of Paris recently
remarked: cit is to be observed that
Paris never decides upon an ameliora-
ton until after it has been we'll tried
elsewhere. Paris had gas only after
London, tramways after Brussels, steam
boat omnibuses after Lyons, steam fir,
engines after New York, subterranean
telegraphs after Berlin and practical
telephone after Japan. 1t is because of
this that Paris calls itself the city of
progress, and that we are all proud of
being Parisians." The paper might
have added that no sooner do the
Parisians adopt an invention which has
been in use elsewhere than the majority
of them fancy that they are the only
possessors of it, and congratulate them
selves on their superiority over the rest
of the world. -BoSton Journal.

LIFE SAVING STATION NO. 5.
Capt. Sayyyer's Report on the Charges
Against the Grew.
From the Evening news.

~
Against the Grew.
From the Evening news.
After a full investigation of the
charges made against the crew of life
saving station No. 5. Capt. Joseph Saw
yer, superintendent of the tenth district,
has forwarded a report to New York, in
which he exOnerateS the crew and recon-
mends the removal of Perely Silver
thorn, keeper of the station at AlcOna.
Capt. Sawyer rehearses the testimony
showing that the crew made all possible
speed for the scene of the Marine City
disaster, and discharged their duties
with faithfulnesS and zeal which de-
serve cOmmendatiOn instead of censure.
But he recommends the discharge of Mr..
SilyerthOrn, on the ground that the lat
ter spends too much of his time away
from the station, that he allows his
crew to leave the station whever they
please without asking permission, signs
the journal without reading it, and
made no mention of the absence of him
self and two of his crew in the official
wreck report of the steamer Marine
City. III. S. Boardwell, No. surfman at
the station, is recommended for the
place now occupied by Silverthorn, Capt.
Sawyer also says the people OF Alcona
are indignant at the charges made
against the crew, and more particularly
because S. Ii. Davis, of Detroit, then ac-
cused them of stealing his watch and
money. MIR. Davis owed his life to the
timely farrival of this very crew,
and he did not miss his watch and
money until after he had left their boat,
remained on board the Grayling 20 min
utes, and been assisted some distance up
the beach to the hotel by two strange
men. Capt. Sawyer does not wish to be
understood as rejecting in any manner
upon the Grayling's crew or the hotel
people. He believes Mr.. Davis's money
was lost i'm the lake; and his watch,
which was hanging from his pocket and
taken charge of by Addison Silverthorn
in plain sight of the remainder of the
crew, was turned over to Mr.. Fleck at
Alcona the next day, who receipted for it
as agent of Mr.. Davis,
