Surveyors Mark.

A civil engineer was running and
locating the lines of lot of land be-
low the city of Augusta, Ga. and
used as assistance deed to the prom
erty drawn 100 years ago. In one
section of the deed it was recorded
that the line touches a certain point
where stande an old beech tree, and
upon which cross mark las been
made with an ak. The engineer ran
this line to an old beech tree, and.
concluding that this was the point in
question, looked for the mark but of
course could not find it. Taking an
AK he cut into the tree at point he
thought the mark might be. and to
his surprise, after cutting into the
tree, he Clipped out block and there
to his establishment, was the identical
mark referred to in the ancient docu.
ment of 100 years ago. The mark
was perfect, but had been covered up.
At that time this was British COLONY
and some years before the Revolutions
airy war. The deed was drawn in 1859.

L0ngfellOW'S Kindness to Children.


Professor Luigi Mont told me a
pleasant story of Henry W. Lonfellow
For many years this gentleman has
been in the habit Of dining with tn;
poet every Saturday. On Christmas
Day, as he was walking briskly toward
the old historic house, he was accosted
by a girl about twelve years old, who
in luired the way to Longfellow's home
He told her it was some distance down
the street, but if she would walk along
with him he would show her. When
they reached the gate. she said: "Do
you think [ can 90 in the yard?" sob,
yes" said Signor Mont. "Do you see
the room on the left? That's where
Martha Washington held her receptions
100 years ago. If you look at the Win
dows on the right, you will probably
see a white-haired gentleman reading
paper. Well, that will be Mr.. Long
fellow" She looked gratified and hap
py at the unexpected pleasure Of really
seeing the man whose poems she said
she loved. AS Signor Mont drew near
the house, he saw Mr.. Longfellow
standing with his back against the win
dow, his head, of course, out of sight
When he went in the kind-hearted
Italian said, "Do look out of the win
dow and bow to that little girl, who
wants to see you very much!' "a lit
tie girl wants to see nae very much
where is she?" He fastened to the
door, and, reckoning with his hand,
called out: "Come here, little girl,
come here, if you want to see me?"
She needed no second invitation, and,
after shaking her hand and asking her
name, he kindly took her into the
house, showed her the "old clock on
the stairs" the chair made from the
village smithys chestnut tree, present
ed to him by the Cambridge children,
and the beautiful pictures and souvenirs
gathered in many years of foreign resi-
dence. lam sure that child will carry
all her life delightful memories of her
Christmas call at Mr.. Longfellow's.

THE PACIFIC VESUVIUS.
Meuna LOa Still In EruptiOn-A Vol
canic ExplOsiOn---TWO Crater
Mounds.
hawaiian Gazette

Hawaiian Gazette.
The view from Hilo of the outbreak
upon Mauna Loa has shown some re-
markable changes during the past
week. Evidently the flow toward Kan
is diminishing. Parties returning from
Kilauea report that the stream is flow
ing very slowly. and, as seen from the
Volcano House, is losing its fire day by
day Kilauea however, is exceedingly
active, presenting unusual attraction.
The most active flow now is that run
ming from near the summit of Mauna
Loa in northerly direction, or toward
Mauna-kea. Clouds for the greater
portion of the time have obscured the
mountain, lifting, however, at intervals
to reveal the sublime fires still doing
their awful work. Saturday evening,
Nov 90, was very clear, and the erup-
ton was observed in three distinct
craters, with great flow of molten lava
running from one to another, and on
down the sides of the mountain to the
north, apparently. Parties watching
the mountain from Hilo just at dusk
noticed sudden eruption explosion
mense amount of material was sud-
denly thrown several hundred feet in
the air. Wednesday evening was also
very clear, and the pyrotechnic dis
play, which was very magnificent,
could be admired by all beholders On
Thursday m Orning the mountain was
clear for an hour, and revealed through
the glare that the cOnt1agration of the
dom Like surface of Mount Loa is much
changed. Two crater mounds of con-
siderable height break its even front,
lying apparently two or three miles
apart, the second northeast of the first
A third crater, at little greater dis
lance, and north of the second, was
also observed, and in all three there
seems to be great activity. On Friday
these three mounds had been watched
by several observers during the short
time the mountain was visible. At
times during the night the clouds clear
ed away, revealing columns of fire and
smoke not only from the three great
centers of activity, but from the whole
line of the flowing stream. Several
parties have gone to the scene of &C
ton, and those who have, speak of the
flow as being awful, and entirely be-
You'd description, rolling, grinding, and
burning its terrible way with irresistible
force. Just before the departure Of
the steamer the heavy columns of
smoke and flame on the line Of advance
seemed to indicate that the flow is in
the Hilo woods.
