THE HOLIDAY HORN.

Hear the youngster with his horn,
Horrid hornl
How its dreadful dissonance affrights the soul
How its direful tootings pour
Flood of most unseemly sound
In the ears of sweet Aurora,
As she rises with a bound,
Driven by nightmares urging,
On the wreck of reason verging,
Wildly gazing all around
AT the boys who wake the horrors that 90 dole
fully are born
In the chambers Of the horn,
Horn. horn, horn
In the dark and dismal caverns OF the horn!
Hear the hooting of the horn.
Wretched hornl
How its harsh, dis cordant note awakeS our
hate and scorni
How its dreary monotone
Turns the softest heart TO stone
Worse than any parrots shrek,
Worse than any Chinese gong,
Drawing curses from the strong,
Drawing prayers from the weak
As they listen, all amazed,
Nearly crazed,
Ruth.essly and roughly from their sweetest
slumbers torn
By the footing OF the horn,
Horn, horn. horn
By the hooting and the footing of the horn!
Hear the screeching of the horn,
Endless horn
How happy holiday can make Us all forlorn!
How the horns incessant waiiing,
Every ear at once assailing,
Forces victims 10 impiore
Just chance to do some shooting,
And to stop its tiTeles5 footing
Eyernore!
How the doinys OF the antic
YOUNGSTERS hourly drive us frantic,
Sending us to seek relief in juice of grape or
corn
From the screeching of the horn

given to the rigid disciplinarian, mod
est. retiring, reserved, who now governs
Russian Poland, to excite the intense
enthusiasm, the half idolatrous worship,
with which Skobeleffwas sometimes re-
garded. But as soldier his record is
not less brilliant than that of the dead
hero of the Russian army, and at the
close of the great campaign in the
Balkans a great English statesman ex.
pressed the opinion that the laurels OF
the war rested with General Gourko.
He was then compared to General
Sheridan in the American civil war, bui
in manner he is more like the taciturE
Grant. Silent, reserved and modest.
General Gourko never made friends
like Skobelei, who conquered hearts
like fortreSses, by storm. During the
triumphant advance across the Balkans

in fact, throughout the whole of the
war-General Gourko fought ever in the

afforded only too sad justification OF
General Gourko's demands. Although
infiexibly severe both to himself and to
others, General Gourko was kindness it

suffering injustice. The trouble which
he undertook in order to secure the re-
lease of a young Conservatorium student

Tom Keller.

Reading paragraph lately copied
from the Dawson JOurnIl. about Mr.
Lawson Melton's horse looking at him
self with pride in mirror which hangs
in his stable, reminded the writer of a
trotter named Tom Keller, that wa.
owned few years ago by Mr.. John S,
Baker, of Seneca Falls. Tom was
2:25 horse in days when such flyers wers
scarcer than they are now. He has won
many closely-fought trots throughout
the country The day before great
trot he always became nervous and high
strung, while at other times he was
easy and almost slouchy in appearance
He would walk up to looking-glas
fastened to the side of his stable, and
examine himself deliberately On be.
ing led from his box Just before the trot
he approached the glass and surveyed
himself carefully. If he was satisfied
with his appearance he nodded; if not
he would shake his head from side &c
side. Then his name and tail had to be
redressed, and an extra rub given to his
back and sides before he would march
out.
Tom was always wide awake when
driven by man, but if woman held
the lines he would SLOUGH along with
the gait of a COW. Once Mrs. Baker
was riding behind him through the viz
lage, accompanied by a lady friend.
Tom espied his master talking horse
with some acquaintance on the porch
of the Hoag House. He Immediately
turned from the road and joined the
group of horsemen, refusing to bulge a
step with the women.
At another time Mr.. Baker and his
wife were riding over wide, smooth
road near Auburn, behind Tom. Mrs.
Baker had made her husband promise
to never speed the horse while she was
with him. A young farmer came along
with his sweetheart in snug turnout
drawn by q powerful Morgan horse,
which could pull them along at a gait
so fast the young fellow believed he
could pass anything on the road. He
slipped by the Bakers. and, turning
around. laughed in their faces. Then,
holding back for awhile, he repeated
the performance. Tom had taken the
bit in his mouth and pricked his ears,
while Baker held him firmly. When
, the young fellow drew back for third
time in a tantalizing way, Mrs. Baker
said: "John, don't let that fellow pass
you again"
"GO for him, Toni" shouted Baker,
as the Morgan horse trotted past him
once more. Tom spread himself with
all his vigor and swiftness, the wheels
whirled like buzz saws, and Mrs. Baker
chung to her husband. Inside of twenty
seconds the fellow and his sweetheart
were left far behind. The Bakers
stopped in Auburn to do do little shop
ping. Within few minutes the young
farmer came in. "Say, Mister" he
said, show long since Dexter arrived
in these parts?"-M Y. Sun.

kidnapping i'm Queensland.

have already referred to the labor
question, and must recur to it a little.
Itespecially concerns Queensland, where
the sugar plantations have to be worked
by bands of men adapted to the tropical
heat. 1t is to that region that the myth
belongs of the wicked squatter whose
ghost returned from hell after his blank
cts. Well, the plantations are supplied
with laborers from the South Sea
Islands, and they are called kanakas.
Cor some time there have been rumors,
md even passages in Blue Books, al
eging that these Kanakas are often
kidnapped and sometimes virtually re-
duced to slavery. l have had n long
interview with Mr.. Spencer, the United
States Consul-General in Melbourne
Whose position is quasi-diplomatic) on
CHS subject. MIR. Spencer is an able
man and dispassionate. He has writ
ten to the State Department at Wash
,ngton a very careful statement Of the
evidence on the whole subject. Mr..
Spencer, it may be remarked. looks
iayorably on the scheme for annexing
New Guinea, but he thinks that more
supervision is required over the means
by which Kanakas are obtained and
over their treatment after the terms of
service for which they contract are COM
oleted. He informs me that the Kan
akas are engaged for three years at
about 1925 year, in addition to
clothes, board and free passage to and
from the place of labor. Some plant
srs add $3.50 year for medicine.
There are between 5000 and 6,OOO en-
Dloyed on these terms. But he says
these people on various remote planta-
lions are unprotected from the cruelty or
greed of planters; that they are some
times given little and poor food, and
instead of being restored to their island
ut the end of the three years, accord
ing to the contract, are sometimes
landed on the nearest island. He be-
lieves it true that some Kanakas were
landed by the Roderick Dhu on can
nibal island. where they were at once
killed and eaten in sight of the ship.
These things, though not perhaps nor
NAL, are sufficiently frequent to require
more attention. But l have also con-
versed on this sub ect with Robert j.
Jeffray, a gentleman of Scotch birth,
and one of the ablest men in Melbourne.
Mr.. Jeffray is largely interested in
Queensland sugar plantations, and, be-
ing man of as much humanity as
shrewdness, he has been very careful to
investigate these matters. Mr.. Jeffray
thinks it probable that some ugly incl
dents occur in the labor trade, though
in one or two cases he discovered by
personal investigation that alleged in
cidents were exaggerated. However,
he believes that there is always need of
vigilance where the white race is brought
into dealings with subordinate and ig-
norant tribes. He states with regard
to the Kanakas after their importation
into Queensland. that the owners of
plantations are profoundly interested in
their humane and honest treatment.
Human passion may. indeed. some

Mr.. Bricks Lunch Can.

Somebody got at Mr.. Bricks lunch
can awhile ago and cooked onions in it,
and as he can't endure that vegetable
he got the notion that he never could
get the taste out of the can, and so he
threw it away. Mr.. Brick is the bag
gage-master on train, and he had the
can made for him and his address put
upon it. When he got back from work
the day he threw the can away, he
found that one of the neighbours chill
dren had picked it up and returned it.
He appreciated the kindness of the
child, but took the can and chucked it
into another neighbours garden. In half
an hour that neighbor sent it home.
Then he determined to get rid of it any
how, and he took it to the depot next
day ana threw it into the freight-depot.
Then he went into the depot for
minute, and on returning to his car
found some one had picked up the can
and left it for him. Quite exasperated,
he chucked it into an empty car that
was being hauled away toward Chicago
and he didn't see 1t again until the next
day, when it arrived in an express
package on which he had to pay seven
ty-five cents. Then he tore around pro-
digiously, and tied it to dogs tail and
the dog ran off with it, and this was an
unlucky move, for half an hour later the
dogs owner brought the can back and
tried to thrash Mr.. Brick for abusing his
dog, the result being arrest and fines.
Then Brick was thoroughly aroused,
and he took the can and sunk it off a
dock. The next day when he entered
his car there stood something done up
in paper that he knew to be his can, and
he kicked it sixty feet into the air, and
had to pay thirty dollars for the valua-
BILE bird in the cage.
Then he felt sure that he was rid OF
the thing, but diver happened to find
it and got thumped on the head for re-
turning it. Then Brick took the can
home, and at night filled it with dynam-
lite and exploded it., The people in the
neighborhood. who were violently hurled
from their beds by the shock, were quite
indignant, and when they found out
what caused it they attempted to tar and
feather Brick, and he had to pay heap
for repairing the windows wrecked.
And to add to his horror he found he
had taken, instead of the can
he detested, new one, and he was
about wild, and concluded that he never
should get rid OF the thing. But one day
he induced some one to borrow it, and he
has never seen it since.-GerZnantoson

Making Bessemer Steel Rails.

Bessemer steel is produced from pig
iron, which must be of a particular
quality, made from the purest ores, al
though its appearance is the same as
the iron commonly used in foundries
for making castings 1t is the common
practice to melt the iron in the convert
ing department, as in this way better
commingling of the various qualities is
obtained, but the iron is sometimes
brought in the melted state directly
from the blast furnaces in which it has
been made, in large ladies mounted on
trucks running on elevated tracks into
the converting department. The ladle
must in either case stand at consider
able height from the general level, that
the melted metal may flow through
suitable troughs into the converting
vessels" and the cupolas are placed
still higher, so that the iron may run
from the cupolas into the large ladle.
The .'conyerters" or vessels are
large, egg-shaped affairs, made prin-
cipally of heavy plate iron. with trun-
MONS on which they turn up or down,
and they are connected with powerful
hydraulic machinery, by which they
may be made to turn as desired. The
converters are lined very h:ckly with
fire bricks and other refractory mate
rails adapted to resist the intense heat.
The bottom or lower part of the lining
is made of perforated fire bricks (called
suyeres), through which the air is blown
into the converter, and this part is made
to be readily removed and replaced
when necessary. The air is conveyed
by passages extending through the
trunnions of the converter, connecting
with pipes leading from the engine.
