In the orchard path he met me
In the tail, wet grass, with its faint perfume,
And tried TO pass but he made no room;
Oh, tried, but he would not let me;
30 stood and biushed till the grass grew rcd,
With my face bent down Aboveit,
While he took my hand as he whispering said
How the clover lined It's pink sweet head,
To listen to all that my lover said
Oh, the clover In boomi love II.

And tried 70 scoot In the gathering gloom

California spends SS,0Q0,0C0 o year
on her schools, and the value OF her
school property is $1,000, 900, yet there
are only 100, 900 attendants in the schools
out of 100000 of school age.
Over 800 pupils are now in attend,
ance at the Agricultural and Mechanical
College of Mississippi. This is the limit
fits capacity at present, and General
Lee has accordingly announced that nc
more pupils will bereceived.
Ex-Governor Rice, of MasSachu-
sets, has presented the Library OF
Roanoke College, Virginia, a valuable
Latin Bible published in l447, beautiful
ly printed on vellum in black letters with
rubricated capitals. 1t contains 944
pages folio, well preserved.
MIR. H. H Houston, of Philadel-
phia, has endowed a fellowship yield
ing $500 year in Washington and Lee
University at Lexington, Va. Mr.
Houston had previously given 81 900 to
the Centennial Endowment Fund of that
institution.
Rev. William Sheldon, D. D., rector
of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Buffalo,
has resigned, after continuous pastor
ate of tifty-one years. The reverend
doctor is eighty-three years of age and
declining health and the inirmities of
age have caused him to relinquish his
clerical duties.
On Christmas Day, 1880, the Rev.
John Murray, Of Gloucester, Mass, the
founder of American Universalism,
preached his first sermon in the first
Uniyersalist Westinghouse erected in
the United States. DR.. Chapin's death
occurred almost on the centennial ami
versary of this sermon.
"A prominent member of the Society
of Friends in the South of England has
so far departed from the usages and
practice of that society as to submit to
adult baptism. 1t is said that the case
has been brought before one of the
church meetings of the body, but that
it is deemed undesirable to take what is
called disciplinary action in the mat
ter. This is equivalent to expressing
the opinion that the question of baptism
or no baptism must be left to the indi-
vidual opinion of the members.
In paper read before the Teach
ers' Association in Canada, DIR. Knapp
stated that there are now ten ladies'
colleges in the Dominion, besides those
which ladies were allowed to attend,
which were not devoted to the sex ex-
clusively. In these different colleges
not less than 1000 ladies were receiving
instruction at an expenditure in the past
of about 100000. The pupils who at
tended the ladies' colleges were fire.

and these could not spare the time or

A Missing Railroad.

When Cheyenne was at the zenith of
its glory, sign of General offices of
the Cheyenne, Pacific Slope & Sandwich
Islands Railroad was hung out with
out creating the least surprise. If one
person had asked another where the
depot of said railroad was, there might
have been some hesitation about answer
ING, but it was some time after the sign
was out before any special inquiries be-
gan to be made. Then an Eastern man
walked in one day, carpet-bag in hand,
and said:
81 suppose you connect at San Fran
cisco with the regular steamers?
"Well, yes; suppose we shall, " was
the hesitating reply.
"Shall? Isn't your road through
yet?"
"Well, not quite"
"Do you take in Salt Lake?'
"Salt Lake?- Yes; think we do"
"How much for a ticket"
"Well, l can't say exactly, as we
have none on sale just yet"
Cant l get one at the depotP'
"Well, l think not; we haven't any
depot yet"
"Can l pay on the trainP"
"Well, you see, we have no trains
yet"
"I suppose l can walk on the track?"
persisted the stranger.
"Wen, l should have no objection if
we had a track"
"No depot, no tickets, no trains, no
tracks! What sort of a railroad have
you got anyhow"
"Well, you see. it's only on paper
thus far, but as soon as we can sell
SS,O00,OO0 worth of stock we shall be-
gin grading and rush business right
along, If you happen to be along when
we get to going we will put you through
as low as any other responsibleoroute." "
The stranger stuck his hands into his
pockets, stared hard, whistled softly
and then walked out on tip-toe without
another word. Wall Street Duly NelOS.

Missouri again. "One or t'other Of 'em will
go on with me in the mornin'," he said, in an
absent and weary way, and then was silent
We remained sitting by his bedside fully an
hour; we feared he might awake and feel hurt
at not finding some one to talk to. But he
slept on so quietly and restfully that it seemed
useless to wait any longer, and we retired.
Our bunk was but across the room from his
and we could easily hear if he called, we said
to ourselves, and we would be up very early.
1t was then ten O'Clock The fire had dwinded
to a handful of waning Goals. We tucked our
blankets closely about us aud dreamed OF
home.
All at once-it might have been but min
ute afterward, for all we knew; in reality it
was almost daylight-we were aroused by
shuffling feet and an intense Whispering We
leaped out of bed, with revolvers drawn and
cooked. A single glance revealed the situa-
tion. There were the two women bending
over Aaron with bottle and spoons, and
cup of water, and camphorized handker-
chief; and he was moaning and tossing
with agony. He had grown desperately worse
during the night and his complaining had not
disturbed US. But Aunt 'Cinda had heard
him, in the next room; perhaps she was awake
and listening. She looked up, white and ap-
peallng, before we could speak; We understood
only too We'll what she thought. Adellne
chafed the poor fellows chill hand vigorously
and did not heed us.
After time, with such scant relief as we
could give him, he became quiet texcept for
his heavy and labored breathing), and we
watched him keenly, hoping he wonld sleep
again. Bu, shortly he was conyulsed with re-
curing pain and called for water. Aunt
'Cinda put the cup to his mouth. His eyes
met hers and he said to her, in a strange, re-
linquishing voice:
"They told me you was dead, 'Cindyln
Then his cramped limbs relaxed and he lay
STILL and We thought he breathed with less
difficulty. When he moved again, presently,
it was to put his hand in doubtful cropping.
"Poor Adelinew he said. We drew nearer,
on our knees, Ike persons at prayer His
quivering lips shaped few words more:
" Be gOod,n we heard him weakly mutter,
" be good-to the babysn
The room became momentarily lighter; the
last of the shadows that had lurked all night
in the corners vanished one by one; crimson
flush slowly overspread the window The sun
was rising.
He had gone on-alone-in the morning.
