ANOTHER AURoRA-A few minutes past
eleven O'Clock last night the northern hori-
ION commenced TO light up, and in half an
hours time long Jets ofelcctriclight had ex-
tended from that quarter of the heavens al
most to the zenith. At the horizon the sky
appeared dark gray, and from that it was
shaded 10 pale green, then pale pink,
while over the whole was broad arc Of
deep pink. The frequent appearance of the
northern lights" of late is attributed to a
certain abnormal spot on the sun, which,
BY some, can now be discerned through
smoked glass by the naked eye. The bright
colors of the auroras of the past few nights,
it is said, have never been eXcelled.

a LOIIiSiana ,IaiI

Major r. E. Wyche, sheriff of Bossier
Parish, La, was in Cincinnati recently,
Identifying prisoner. While visiting
the city police stations he gave descrip-
tion of the jail over which he presides.
To northern eyes ii must appear as a
very strange structure, built as it is of
logs, and with walls three feet thick. So
often have prisoners escaped that many
peculiar precautions have been taken to
prevent it. Between the log walls,
which are double, is arranged row of
poles, SO if some of the poor wretches
in confinement should succeed in saving
through one of the walls they would
strike the poles, and as these are not
fastened at the top they would keep
dropping down just as fast as the man
kept saving. The sheriff calculated that
a carpenter with all his tools could not
saw hole through those walls in twenty
four hours. Doors are invariably a
prisons weak point, but in this Louisi-
ana jail that difficulty is avoided by
having nothing but trap-doors III the
roof. A stairway runs up to the outside Of
the building, by which the prisoners as
cend, and then they are dropped down
1nUO OAC VI UAAC AOlAI OOuOdOI~
They are fed in the same manner. The
Sheriff takes their rations, which he said
consisted of "hog, hominy and mo-
lasses,' upon the roof and then lowersit
down. The windows of the institution
are quite small and covered with three
CRATES, in addition to an iron fender,
with spokes on the outside. In order to
prevent any one from scrathing out, .
the floor has been constructed in an un-
usual way. The ground on which the
jail stands and for some distance outside
the walls has been removed, and to the
depth of four feet filled in with large
stones, whjch are firmly cemented to-
gether. Dc top of this stone platform
two sections of logs have been laid
transyersely, by means of numerous iron
spikes. Finally, resting on the logs is
four-inch planking, which is fairly
studded with nails. In spite of these
many precautions prisoners frequently,
by the help of outside parties, make
their escape, but now, as the country is
becoming more and more settled and the
desperadoes are being thinned out. such
occurrences are growing rare.

A Curious Well.

James Beatty, of Huntington, n. Y,
has well on his premises that appears
to be both curiosity and a puzzle. The
well is twenty three feet deep, and it is
said that it is dry every year from January
l to the first week in March-as regular
as the days of the year. 1t will be as
full the day before it dries up as at any
time during the year, and on the follow
ing morning not drop is to been seen
where depth of three or four feet ex-
listed before. About the first week III
March the well fills again in a few mo-
ments and continues so for the remain
der of the year.

EDGED TOOLS.
BY z. c. STEDMAN.

Well, Helen, quite two years have flown
Since that enchanted, dreamy nlgnt,
When you and / were left alone'
And wondered whether they were right
Who said that each the other loved;
And thus debating, yes or no,
And half in earnest, as If proved,
We bargained to pretend twas so.
Two seeptic children of the world.
Each with a heart engraven DER
with broken Iove-knots, quantity curled,
of hot firtations held before;
Yet somehow, either seemed to find,
This time, something more akin
To that young, natural love-the kind
Which comes but once, and breaks us in.
What sweetly stolen hours we knew,
And frolics per1lous as gayI
Though lit in sport, Loves taper grew
More bright and burning day by day,
We knew each heart was only lent,
The others ancient scars to heal;
The very thought pathos blent
With all the mirth we tried to feel.
How bravely, when the time to part
Came with the wanton seasons close,
Though nature with our mutual art
Had mingled more than either chose,
We smothered love upon the verge
OF folly, in one last embrace,
And buried him without urge,
And turned, and left his resung-place.
Yet often tell me what it means
His spirit steals upon me here,
Far, far away from all the scenes
His little lifetime held SO dear,
He comes: hear mystic strain
In which some tender memory lies;
i daily with your hair again;
I catch the CLEAN of violet eyes.
All, Helen how have matters been
Since those rude obsequies, with you?
Say, is my partner in the sin
A sharer of the penance, too?
Again the Visions at my side;
/ drop my head upon my breast,
And wonder if he really died,
And why his spirit will not rest.
