Under the Summer Grass.
BY MRS. MARY &. NFALY.

Written for THE EVENING STAR.
The days glide onward-so dark and drear.
Though summer blossoms and birds are here:
And the weeks so slowly, so slowly pass;
For he most tenderly loved Of all,
Is hidden where he can hear no call
Deep under the summer grass
The sun still rises and sets the moon
Still lists to the whip poor-wills mournful tune,
And the universe Smileth up to God;
But he, the ktndliest, purest, best
With pale hands folded upon his breast.
Lies under the summer sod.
He hears no sound of the fresh, sweet morn,
No whispered rustic OF tree or corn.
Nor even the voices that love him best;
No birds sweet matIn, no hum OF bee,
But lteth forever so peacefully
In calm and utter rest!
He has lost the sunlight and blooming flowers
And with them the frosts and the autumn showers
And the fever that ragged within his blood;
He has lost Loves tender and soothing tones
And with them all pains, all sighs and moans,-
All losses by fire and dood
o is 1t not better, my love, to rest,
With the cool, green grass Ger peaceful breast,
Than to pant and struggle for earthly breath9
O Is 1t not better that you are free
From the pains OF our sad humanity?
Is life not harder than death7

THE ELECTRIC TnAMwAY.


From the London STANDARD
The railway from Portrush to the Giant
Causeway is remarkable, not only as being the
first long electric tramway in the world. but
as the unaided outcome OF Irish enterprise. 1T
is over six miles long and has cost f45'Noo,
which have been raised by a company formed
In the country. The llne after passing through
the principal street of Portrush follows the sea-
side road footpath six feet broad being re-
served for the railway. The gauge is only
three feet and the gradients are very steep
in places much one in thirty fve-and in
parts of its course the curves are sharper than
might have been desirable had the route which
it takes been chosen by the engineers The
force to work ii is generated 10y a waterfall in
the River Bush, with an available head Of
twenty-four feet the electric current being con-
veyed by an underground cable to the end of
| the tramway The water power passing through
turbine water-wheelS which utilize the whole
force OF the fall, is said to amount to ninety
horse. 1t Ia obvious that for a light train of
tram-cars there is enough and to spare.
The practicabilty of such q line is now a set
tied matter. The only question is. whether it is
likely topay as a commercial venture Con-
sdering that the initial power costs nothing
and that coal in Ireland is dear. there are good
hopes that line certain to be freely used by
the continuous stream Of tourists ALWAYS going
between Portrush and BushmillS. on their way
to the Giants Causeway, will satisfy the expec-
tations Of its projectors.
Taking as the basis OF their calculations the
expense Of working a steam tramway engine at
Portrush. 1t is claimed that while the old system
cost on an average OF IS As. I'D. for the engine
same number of passengers for nearly 60 Us.

SENSATIONS AT AN ELEVATION OF THREE AND A

After seeing these animals we repaired to the
hotel and ate our lunch. When we had all sank
into chairs, more or less exhausted, our doctor
felt our pulses. Two of us, including myself

tween this and los. except one. who had but 60

only pale one in the party. After l had eaten
my lunch felt like myself again. experiencing
no peculiar feeling except lack of desire to
exert myself very much. At that elevation
water boils at 1902, instead of 2l2o, as at the
sea level. and the barometer stands at about 20
inches; so that the pressure of the atmosphere
is little less than 10 pounds to the square inch.
instead of about Is pounds. l don't wonder it
made our heads feel big.

We started back at p. NJ, and did not use a
pound OF steam. except for the steam brake.
All the way down to Lima the engineer
controlled the engine by the brake entirely. At
places where the road was straight for some
distance he would let her out and we would go
at the rate OF sixty miles an hour. found just
as much to interest me on the trip down as up,
