Why the Clock Stopped.

Two newlysmarried swallows, with
the important business of building a
nest on their minds, stopped to rest one
morning on the hands of great church
clock in the town of Newark, New Jer-
sey. Presently they noticed a little hole
on its face just large enough for swal-
low to enter. They looked in, and saw
lovely place for a nest among a collec-
ton of wheels that seemed perfectly
quiet. " s. ~ "a kk ysFss-s f.
There is a great difference, you must
know, in the movement of the wheels OF
the great clocks. Some turn swiftly,
while the larger ones move SO slowly
that, unless they are watched for long
time. they seem to be standing still.
The swallows thought it would be de-
licious to live in the clock. No boys
could disturb them, and unless some one
should invent a new kind of flying cat
they would never have any unwelcome
and dangerous visitors. So they began
to build. They carried hay and grass
and cotton into the clock, and by night
their nest was half finished. They slept
in a neighboring tree, and in the morn
ing flew back with fresh building mate
rails. Something very strange had hap
pened. The nest that they had partly
built had nearly disappeared. They had
to begin again. All that day they
worked hard. The next morning they
found that the same cruel trick had been
played on them. They now became
very indignant and that night they
perched on the hands of the clock, so as
to be near in case any one should try to
destroy their nest In the course of the
night the hands of the clock turned
around and tumbled them of, but in the
morning they saw that their nest had
only been slightly disturbed. They re-
paired the damage, finished their work,
and moved in that night ~ ~ a
For two days they were very happy.
but on the third day man climbed into
the tower to see why the clock had
stopped. He found nearly a peck of
straw and grass and cotton that had
been drawn by the wheels into the in
most recesses of the clock, and had
finally so closged the wheels that they
could move no more. Then he found
the nest that the swallows had made,
and threw it away, and stopped up the |
hole in the clock face.
And so it happened that the swallows |
had to 60 and build nest under the
caves after all.-Harper's Young People.

ming in general and Harry White in
particular. He charges the General
with making many mis-statements and
insinuatss that he was under the in.
fuence Of liquor and hence excusable.
OF course Mr.. Dingman knows that
the insjnuation is false, but throws
it out thinking that it may have some
affect on his readers; be knows also
that he was perhaps the only one in The
large and highly respectable audience
who was so ungentlemanly to throw
out such an iusiuustion and be knows
further that all his insinuations
in that direction are thrown out
for political effect and that no gentle.
man would publish such falsehoods
against candidate no matter how
bitterly he felt toward him. Mr..
Dingman charges General White with
making mis-statements, but if the
General made half as many as did Mr..
d. in his report Of the meeting his
chances for going to Congress, or any
other good place are very slim. The
trouble with Mr.. d. IS that the General
sat down upon him most too hard at
that meeting. He read from the
Commonwealth Mr.. Dingman's com.
meDts on the Republican platform,
and thereby showed that that paper
sneered at the plank in the platform
which was identical with the money
plank in the platform adopted by the
National Democratic convention of
1880, and after sneering at their plat.
form had the audacity to ask Demo.
Gratis to vote for John d. Patton, who
must necessarily be running on that
platform if he was entitled to the vote
Of any true Democrat. If John D.
Patton could not endorse "honest
money, gold, silver and paper curren.
cy, convertible into coin on demand"
then how could true Democrats, who
have pledged themselves in favor of
such money, endorse Mr.. Patton. This
was a point which Mr.. Dingman
could not bear to see General White
make out of his comments, go he got
up and tried to explain matters, but
the more he tried to explain the worse
he got into the muddle, and after
thoroughly disgusting the audience, all
of whom seemed to feel pity for him,
he mumbled over something. sat
down, and, like the boy, had nothing
more to say.
