RAMMY, RAMMY, RAM
Burlington Hawoye.


M0llie had little ram as black rs a
rubber shoe, and everywhere that Molie
went he emigrated, too.
He went with her to church one day
the folks hilarious grew 10 see him walk
demurely into Deacon Aliens pew.
The worthy deacon quickly let his an
cry passions rise, and gave it an unchrls-
tian kick between the sad brown eyes.
This landed Wmmy in the aisle: the
deacon followed fast, and raised his foot
again; alas that first kick was his last.
For Mr.. Sheep walked slowly back,
about rod tits said, and ere the deacon
could retreat, 1t stood him on his head.
The congregation then arose and went
for that 'ere sheep. Several wcll-direct-
ed butts just piled them in heap.
Then rushed they straightway for the
door with curses long and loud, while
rammy struck the hindmost man and
showed him through the crowd.
The minister had often heard that
kindness would subdue the ficrccst beast,
AHA" he says, "I'll try that game on
yOu.' #
And so he kindly. gently called :
Come, rammy, i9mmy, ram; to see the
folks abuse you so, grieved and sorry
am"
With kind and gentle words he came
from that tall pulpit down, saying:
"Rammy, rammy, ram-best sleepy in
the town."
The ram quite dropped its humble air,
and rose from off his feet, and when the
parson lit he was beneath the hindmost
seat. "..r "
AS he shot out the door and closed It
with n slam, he named Il California town.

found some 200 yards north. His hand
was found northwest about the same dis
lance. His skull was lifted and the brains
ontiiely gone. The engineer was blown a
long distance aud cast against the ground
with great force, breaking one leg in two
places and one arm, with internal injuries.
He is still alive, with some hopes of recov-
cry. The evening was passed in picking
up fragranis Of boaies which we're strewn
in all directions from the central part Of
the explosion. Heads, scalps, and pieces
OF bodies were found in all directions in
circle of from 200 70 800 yards. No such
horror has ever been witnessed before. The
fragments could only be recognized
by their friends by scraps of
cotbing found upon them. A farmer travel
ing west Of the mill with his wagon had a
narrow escape from a fragment Of the boil
er passing clear oyer him, weighing not
less than 200 pounds. Tive men
in a skiff to the east also narrowly escaped
a similar fragment that fell beyond them
in the river The funeral of the eight
victims hurled so suddenly into eternity
took place to-day. There was a general
EXPIRE sion of sorrow and grief over the
terrible sacrifice Of human life. The cause
of the accid Mt is believed to have been
want of water and the sudden flowing Of
water into the red hot boiler.

THE COMMISSIONERS PLAN.

The following very concise explanation
OF the plan of Mississippi river improve
ment adopted by the river commission, is
taken from speech made by Captain
James B E-ads, At a banquet given him at
New Orleans last week:
/. at proposes to brig the food chan
mel Of the river to comparative uniiormi.
ty Of width, or paraIlelsm, by the encour-
agement Of deposits in the wide places, as a
certain and only means Of insuring the per-
manence Of ow.water channel.
2. 1T recognizes the importance OF clos
ing the outlets through which its food
waters escape, because by concentrating all
OF the flood waters in one channel, deeper
low water channel will result.
g. ut recognizes the fact that in proper
ton as the volume flowing in the channel
is increased, greater erosion of the bed &C.
ours; consequently the food line takes a
lower plane, and levees become less neces-
sary. Other plans of improvement we're
recommended for the lowVwater channel, by
which it was believed 8 or 10 feet depth
could be secured, but such plans dld not
contemplate connecting the food channel,
and could only have resulted in partial and
temporary benefit. The leyee system, as it
is termed, looked only to the protection of
the lands against overflow.
"The plans adopted bas stood the test

Last night was just such night for
ball as ardent lovers of the dizzy dance
would desire II was cool, uppleasantly
cool without to those whose ambition was
but to enjoy promenade; but. those others
and there were many of them
who were on their ways to the X. M. X.
Z. dance the sharp breeze acted only as an
invlgorator, sharpener of the desire for
exercise and pleasure. About 80 couples were
present at the dance, which made a very
pleasant crowd IN the Krew's nice little
hall. The music was furnished by
Prof. Storers band, composed of some of
tue best musicians in the city. Dancing
began early and time few fast as the young
dancers with glowing faces and light feet
went through the several forms as pro-
nounced by lirge-lunged caller.
Right and left, cross over, ladies' chain,
half promenade, swing in the corners, and
all that, was the order OF exercises; and
eyes looked loye to eyes which spoke
again, and all that also, until the wee sma'
hours when two by two the merry crowd
departed for their respective homes. The
affair was pleasant one for all throughout,
as such affairs always are when given by
the Krew.
