Funny Fancies.

An old French officer was relating the
story of the battle Of Coulmeiers in the
regimental mess one evening, when he
was constantly interrupted by a forward,
presuming young lieutenant, who had
got his epaul cites no one knew how.
"The Prussian batteries were here,
such brigade there, with the cavalry in
the woods in the rear" said the old SOL
der, and the impertinent young one
chimed in; eyes, yes; that's right!' at
every word. This exasperated the mar
rator. He had just reached the critical
moment when there was general action
along the whole line. His regiment was
ordered to the front; it charged. "Mon-

Connecticut Cigars.

From the New Haven Register.
The process Of making the choicest
Havana cigars, as practised in Connect
cut was exhibited at q recent trial. The
workmen employed in making "scrap
end" cigars use a wooden mould, shaped
inside to the form and size of cigar,
and into this mould is crowded the
snippings and cuttings and odds and
ends of cigars-the refuse, perhaps it
may be called, of the trade. This inter-
estlng mixture-which may or may not
include the broken-up ends of old cigar
stumps-ls ssleft under pressure every
night, and in the morning it is taken out
and dark, nice looking Connecticut
wrapper is deity and tightly wound
round it, and tho cigar neatly packed
with others of the same style, in boxes
bearing various fancy names of Havana
cigars, as "Flor de Fuma." f'Rema Vic
torla," and oil . names ofchoice brands,
and sold to dealers in drugs or groceries,
who do a wholesale as we'll as retail bust
ness. and who purchase these cigars at
$50 per l, 900 or at the rate of 1-2 cents
apiece. A proposition to teak open
some Of the cigars in court to show the
jury just what was inside of them was
strenuously resist ID by the maker, who
admitted that they were ''scrap end"
cigars, and thought that admission should
be enough.

DEATH ON THE RAIL.

Scores of People Wounded and Sew
eral Killed by New Jersey Rail-
road Accident.
The express train leaving Long Branch at
sos o'clock last Thursday morning on the
Central New; ] ersey RAILROAD met with ter
riable accident while crossing the bridge over
a branch of Shrewsbury river near Little
Silver station. Six cars-four ordinary pass
enger coaches and the smoking and parlor
cars-left the rails and ran over the ties of
the bridge, tearing them to flinders: The cars
way across, when the four passenger coaches
and smoking car went over into the water
with terrible crash. The cars landed on
their sides in about four feet of water The
scene that followed beggars description.
The cause of the terrible disaster was the
changing of the track for the Monmouth
Park races which commence Saturday next,
the frog at which was not properly spiked,
and when it waa struck by the engineit
spread the track and tore up the rails for
over 100 feet. While the engine and for
ward cars were piled up on the side ofthe
track, the succeeding five cars plunged for
to the water. It was incxcusable careless
ness on the part of those intrusted with the
task of altering the track.

Every soul had received some hurt more
or less serious, and although they bore it in
the best part, it was hard to hide their all
ments, and in this scene the characters who
had played their part in larger areas in the
( world were not unworthy of their training.
From one of the windows hand issued and
drew up after it strong vigorous body. A
face appeared with a beard and mustache
besmirched and bedraggled. The clothing
had been wetted by the mud of
the creek but the face was calm
and imperturbable, aud even in that scope
of horror 1t was amusing to see that between
the firm, closed lips was clenchcd the stump
of cigar. The light had gone out in the
wetting and scramble in the dark but it re-
manned all the same and so from this con-
fusion arose General Grant. When lie had
reached a plank and saw there was nothing
about for him to do he quietly stalked away
His hat was gone, he was mud spotted and
bore painful bruise or two but he coolv
donned rediculously small derby he picked
up and went quietly away.

CANADA's ONLY HOPE.

A Canada paper says: Commercial
snion with the United States would
give Canada market Of $1,000 600
people right alongside OF her borders,
without any custom.house or other re-
striction to prevent the freest CONNER
eial intercourse. Practically, foe all
business purposes, we would be 'one
grand people. extending our operations
from Mexico 20 the North Pole without
transhipment Of cars. Property in Can.
ada would immediately increase one
hundred per cent. Our cities and towns
would be dotted with manufactures to
keep at home the population now seek
ing employment across the lines. Our
farmers would receive for their produce
the duty now paid at the frontiers on
every bushel OF grain and head OF cattle
exported to the United States, aud
which amounts 30 millions OF dollars.
Politically. we would remain as we are
with our local and Federal govern
ments. Every business man under
stands that commercial union means
prosperity to our people.

Alone walked the ocean strand,
pearly shell was in my hand;
stopped and wrote upon the sand
My name, the year and day;
As onward from toe spot haste,
One lingering look behind east,
wave came rolling high and fast,
Aud washed my line away.
And SO, methought, twill quickly be
With every mark on earth Of me;

Where have trod the sandy shore

OF me, my day, the name bore,
To leave no track or trace.
And yet. with Him who counts the sands,
And holds the waters In his hands.
know lasting record stands
Inscribed against my name,
OF all this mortal part has wrought,
OF all this waking soul has thought,
And from these heetlng moments caught
For glory or for shame.

blown,

Thou who hast made my home Of life SO pleasant

Be near ne when all else is from me drifting.
Earth, sky, homes pictures, days Of shade ana

And kindly faces to my ewn uplifting
The love which answers mine.
I have but Thee, o Father! Let thy spirit

No gate Of pearl, no branch Of palm merit,
Nor street of shining gold.
Suffice it if-my good and ill unreckoned,

I find myself by hands familiar beckoned
Unto my fitting place.
Some humble door among thy many mansions
Z Some sheltering shade where sin and striving

And flows forever through heavens green expan

And find, at last, beneath Thy tree of healing.

house. Trough the open door we could
see her breaking up the chairs and piling
them on the fire for fuel. We could hear
her singing and chattering TO herself until
the morning broke and the rain ceased,
when she wandered down the road toward
Durkee's tavern. Later on we saw old
Witch Hazel hurrying down the road
ed her what was the matter. She answer
ed that the lightning had struck the elm
that stood in front of her house, and that
it had fallen upon and killed a man who
had taken shelter under it. Men came up
from Dnrk ee's and carried the dead man
away. It was Will Darby.
''Dycie never recovered her senses. She
went to live with her mother At night
passers-by would hear screaming and sing
ing, and her mother swearing at her. The
old elm lies across their gateway now just
as it fell. Old Witch Hazel died at last

thing that you could call funeral; only
few ne1ghbors gathered out of curiosit y.
After the sexton had filled in the earth.
the old man, who was from the poorhouse,
took Dycie by the hand and led her to The
grave, and then he folded his arms and
danced just as straight and as hard as he
could tramp. Dycie did not dance. She
only stood and stared till she caught sight
Of my face; then she ran TO me and said
as mysterious as though it was great Sc
cret: Him that loved US and washed us.
Then she laughed in silly way, and sing
ing,
