A sentiment similar to this might tie
expressed by traveller who should hap
pen to land just now in the vicinity of
Lake Nicaragua, In the Central Ameri-
canlrepublic of that name, or In the state
of Cauca, United States of Columbia. If
the tales brought by the tell graph from
Panama and credited to the Star and
Herald are to be believed, the condition
CT affairs in that part of the world must
be about as near the orthodox Hades as
anybody, even of the most venturous
spirit, would care to get. 1t is reported
that the volcano of Ometope, Lake Mic
aragua, is in an eruption, and the peo-
pie are fleeing, with probabilities that
the entire island will be destroyed. In
the valley of the Atrato" at Ris Sucio, Il
point about forty miles from the Atlantic
ocean, Mother Earth is belching forth
from numerous openings great
showers ofred-hot sand, and noises are
constantly heard proceeding from some
subterranean source, as if great cal
dron of water as large as the imagina-
low On the Gulf Of Urubu, at Tur5o,
instead of sand showers the earth is
vomiting great volumes of water, and
the streets of the town are flooded to a
depth of two feet. Two small villages,
Boujuies and Nicurio, have been COM
pletely inundated and restroyed by the
ascending floods. That part Of the globe
is in constant motion; the shocks are
also felt in Bolivia aud at Guya9uil and
San Salvador. Read these reports, ye

Another AnecdOte of Charlie

BaCkuS.
Charlie Ba;kus the negro minstrel
lived in Cleveland some thirty years ago,
when he was rol,cking, miscl,ier-mak-
ing boy. His death brings to mind the
very funny joke he pe,petrated, and
which acted like boomerang on him
self: He was standing on the rear plat
form of train at the Union depot in
company with some friends. AS the
train commenced moving out of the de-
pot Charlie saw fellow staring at him.
Putting on an enraged expression of
countenance and shaking violently his
two fists at the fellow staring at him, he
yelled out TO him: ooh, you Internal
scoundrel. you villain, it was not going
away I would fog the life out of you. l
have mind to get off now and slap your
mug. you old rascal! If only had you
on this platform I'd smash your head ,
you blank dog. Oh! Obi How l would
like to lick YOU All this time Charlie
vaIiantly shook his two fists as the train
apparently was moving on to. Chicago.
stopped with jerk and commenced
backing to the depot, and there the fel-
low whom he had heen threatening,
| stood waiting to see him come back
Charlie retreated into the car, amidst
the roars of laughter of his friends, and
hid. AS the train came into the depot
the victim of Charlie'e joke rushed
aboard. yelling; "Where's that dnlfer
who wanted to lick me? I'll give him !.
chance, blank him." And he rushed
through the train trying to find the brave
| minstrel, who remained in close quar-.
tiers, trembling with fright. Finally the
train moved, the fellow jumped of, and
Charlie breathed easier.-[Leader. "

domestic happiness is just iii proportion
as husbands and wives love: each other,
I hold that men are more to blame for
the misery that exists in families than
women. presume there are men who
will read this who have not told their
wives that they love them for twenty
five years. Let me say to: such, if you
have any manliness left in your hearts
tell your wives in plain English that you
love them, and if you would like to walk
again those paths of joy you trod just be-
fore you were married, tell them some
of the sweet things yon told them then.
Be as tender toward them as you were
then; and see if you don't enjoy great
er happiness than you thought possible.
Don't be fooled by the laugh or sneers
of anybody into thinking such things un-
manly. These tender sentiments were
by the Great Creator Of all, and He knew
just what He was doing The nearer we
walk in the path He marked out Tor us
the happier we will be. If your wife ia
fretful and scolding and discontented
court her and ask her TO love You. #
!, che likes the company of some other
man do all you can to win her, away from
him. If married life is not as happy as
you thought it was going to be 90 court
ing again and see if 1t doee not fulfill its
brightest promises. i sincerely pity the
man or woman whether married or
single, who has to 20 through the world
without love; but above ell others do I
pity the man who thinks love is sense.
