THE FLAG OF THE PRESS.

1t il not of silk Or of bunting.
This flag that all tyrants aDhor;
1t has no heraldic devices,
Or sangnine. gules, azure, vert, or.
Its colors are sable and argent;
lis elements paper and ink.
The spirits OF knowledge and freedom,
And whatever such spirits may think
And its heraldry's simple enough;
Just so many columns per page;
But in them is fought without ceaSing
The battle that Freedom must wage.
The warfare of good against evil,
VI weakness In suit against might,
Of ignorance seeking for knowledge,
OF wrong in contention with right.
1t flutters in senate and palace;
Is found in the workingman's hand.
More free than the emblem of freedom,
1t dares every wrong to withstand;
1t cares not for King nor for Kaiser;
No ukise can fold it away:
When it urges the conflict of Freedom,
Then Kingdoms and Kings pass away.
Ely over the world, paper Banner,
In thy sable and argent dress!
For the banner of Freedom is freest,
When it flies with the Flag of the Press
Fly over the armies of knowledge!
Go forth with the armies of right!
In cottage, in palace. In senate,
fly Banner of Freedom and Light!

A Remarkable Case.

An old man was arraigned before an
Arkansaw Court for some trifiing Of
Tense, and among the witnesses was an
old woman who, in giving her testimo-
ny, made such efforts to shield the old
man that the Judge asked:
Madam, have you known this man
very long?''
.sYes, sir, the old woman replied.
"I have known him very long time.
When was a young girl this man used
to visit me. In fact, Judge, we were
sweethearts, and she twisted her apron
and looked down.
s.Ah, l seen' the Judge replied.
FUSED to be sweethearts, and think so
much of each other now because you
did not marry each other then?n
You are mistaken, Judge, for we did
marry each other then, and are husband
and wife now
s.Indeed!,' the Judge exclaimed,
'sthis is a remarkable case. Liberate
the old fellow, Mr.. Officer. "-Ar.kansaO
Ir0uelEer.

Those large but light parasol han

in the fields of Brittany. A particular
kind Of long-stalked cabbage Or col

the leaves being carefully stripped from
the stalk, which, becoming very tough
and strong, is then used Tor the stick
Of one of those large parasols called the
Jersey sun-shade.

They Sold Him a Hole.

He was telling the story in the billiard
room of a Denver hotel. Said he:
'"There were three of us, you see, anC
Nevada was a cold climate for us. We
were dead-broke, half-starved, and cleal
discouraged, when along came a New
Yorker. He wouldn'tplay cards, wouldn't
be robbed, and we couldn't stick him
with forged land-patents or bogus pre-
emptions. One day we trailed out and
dug hole into hill and salted it bit,
and rushed back and offered the New
Yorker the big discovery for SO, 900 cash
down."
''And he bit ?"
"Took right hold like a pair of pin.
GERS. Why, he never even stopped to
beat us down. We got cool thousand
apiece and made for Frisco"
"Purty cool that was"
'Well, I dunno. If there was any
thing cool in that transaction it was the
way that New Yorker hunted up pard,
set miners to work, bought machinery,
and took over S75O,OOO out of that ar
hole inside of eight months Maybe
we've got over feeling fiat, but I guess
not. - Wall Street Ne10S.

MAMMALS SHIP.
which is supposed to be Coming In.

Which is Supposed to be Coming In.
The Point Lobos watchman of tn,
Merchants Exchange, San Francisco
was aroused from his monotonous con
temptation of the horizon one morning
by faint rap on the lower panel of the
door of the station, and upon opening
the latter he discovered a rosy-cheeked
boy of about five, looking very hot, tired
and dust-begrimed, and having evidently
made the journey from the city alone
and on foot.
"Please, sir, is mammals ship coming
IMP"
''What ship is your mother on, my
child ?" asked the lookout, staring at his
diminutive visitor,
"She isn't on any; she's at home. !"
replied the small inquirer, somewhat
puzzled. "She has ship of her own,
though, and I want to know if it's COM
ing in?"
81 suppose its fathers captain, said
the lookout to himself. "What's the
ships name, my son?"
"Name?" reflected the child; sit has
not got any name; it's just mammals ship,
that's all.
mo name?" said the station-man,
more mystifed than ever. "Who sent
you here, little one?"
"Why, cid Jim, the sailor, who lives
back of our house. He said this was
the place where they watched for the
ships to come in, and so thought I'd
come out to-day and see if mammals was
in sight. I started this morning, and

HERmTs.-Two sisters have dwelt in
small log hut in the mountains near
Indiantown, Pa, for thirty eight years
past, aloof from all other human beings.
The two hermits are about 60 years of
age. In speaking to each other-for
they never speak to others-they sing
their words with long-drawn drawls.
They are hard workers, and can swing
the ak and fell large trees. They have
no fear of anything from tramp to bear.
They sleep with their AXIS by the bed
side. 1t is said that both were disap-
pointed in love about forty years ago.

ty, the members of which are divided
into four classes. The first demands
only pledge against intoxicating
drink, the second adds tobacco. the
third profanity, and the fourth every
thing in the shape of vice or crime.
The oath of the latter class is elaborate
and terrible.
