Anecdotes of Emerson.

Ralph Waldo Emerson was averse to sit
ting for photograph. and refused to do so
on nearly all occasions. Pre- Gus TO the
Centennial Exhibition he stopped IN Phila-
delphia with the Rev. DIR. w. II. Furness,
on his way to Virginia to lecture. The
Doctor and 5 muel Bradford, the Treas urer
Of the Reading Railroad Company, and Mr..
Emerson were schoOl-felOws at L'wson
LYONS school IN Boston. 1t was suggested
that the three be photographed in a group,
and after some persuasion Mr. Emerson's
scruples were overcome. While in position
the shrewd artist levelled an extra camera
at Mr. Emerson and succeeded in getting a
very good picture without the philosopher
knowing anything about 1t. When MIR.
Emerson was about to leave Boston on this
visit, Nr Bradford sent him an invitation to
come to his house on his way through Phi
IadeIphia Mr.. Emerson replied that he
had received a similar note from DR..
Furness, and as he had known him from
the time he was four or five years old, and
his acquaintance with Mr.. Bradford had
only been since he was five or SIX years
of age he would stay with the older ac-
ouaintance The whole letter was written
in Mr. Emerson's genial, phIlosOPhic and
witty style.

An Ancient story.

When great King Francis lived and rsisueI France
had merry days,
Ot tiI5 and tourney. dance aud song, rare tests
and games and plays;
From far and near the people came these pastimes
TO attend.
And every knight privileged to bring a beau
teOus friend;
And day when the lions fought, among tine rest
there came
The brave Rocroy with he wood to bear his
hOnOred name.
o, Hercules what sight was that when they rn-
baTrd the door,
And two grim lions darted forth with deep and
sullen roar
With eager jaws they bit and tore, tOro flesh and
bone and name,
Now rolling hercely in the sand, and up
reared again
The ladies shrek the knights and -Juircs look
down with steadfast glare;
g. .Grammercy, sirs - King Francis cries. 'ti-
awful mischief there -
Rocroy's fair lady ard the words that fell from
royal lips,
And wish'd the pride Of all the proud that mo-
ment to eclipse;
The knight was brayest Of the brave in battle in
sport,
And she would be the envied maid in all that
brilliant court;
Right down among the lions wild she threw her
brOider'd glove.
And bade her suitor take it up, to show tho
strength Of love
The die is east-the barriers past among the lions
wild.
Rocroy has Ieapt and caught the glove, still
white and undefIed
Then sPrnsins from the pit again with true heroic
He dinss the glove disdainfuIly in the smiling
Iady's face.
BY Jove p cried Francis, d. that's well done o,
cruel, foolish maid
Your vanity-it was not loye-is brayely thus
repaid - BONJcUE.

When the Righteous Die it is the Earth
That Loses"

Iurn, stranger seek thou other sight,
within the world by pleasure led,
For. IN the deepest mourning clad,
We mourn our loved and sacred dead.
We have no welcome 10 give,
Our hearts are bowed by sOrrOw's weight:
No careless laugh will greet thy ear;
To watch our tears, no longer wait
Within these dear and hOnOrcd walls
We meet 10 bid a last farewell
To him whose spirit just and true.
viii in our hearts forever dwell.
Kind faces here, in youth in age,
Are gathered round the siceper's bed
No waiting voice prOclaims our oss
Our silent tears alone are shed.
Good stranger, think il not uukind
That thus we pray thee break thy stay
For thou art heart and soul with life,
While VIC must tread deaths darkened way
Oh, life, at best, how brief thy time
How soon thy hestinS hours pass By 4!
NO moment may call own
We wake, we breathe, and then-we die

THE following, which illustrates the
rapidity with which towns are built
up IN territories, was told the North
'reStern LUmbermdR by a gentle
man who was looking around in Da-
kota recently. He was present when
officials of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
St Paul road arrived at point thir-
tymiles north of Mitchell and planted
a town which they called Woonsocket.
At the time only one farm house was
standing in the vicinity, and a car
was used as a depot. This was ON
Thursday, and on Saturday OF the
same week there were twenty shanties.
a livery stable, two stores, a saloon, a
hotel, and three lumber yards. There
are men who have loaded lumber on
cars without knowing where it would
be unloaded, and then run ii 10 the
first new town they hear of being
started But it is not best TO imagine
that all of the yards which are estab-
hshed so suddenly in the new Dakota
towns have complete ass sortments
or are models of neatness. A few
hundred feet of lumber thrown down
10y the track constitutes yard, which
grows and is put into shape rs the
town progresses.

The Weston LeGder thinks that
the temperance question viii soon
figure prominently in Oregon politics.
There are probably more genuine
temperance Democrats IN the state
than there are temperance Republi-
cans, and yet 1t Is more than proba-
ble that the Republican party viii be
the first one 10 espouse that cause
and thus secure The vote OF The Dem
ocrats of that belief. If between
now and June the woman suffrage
sentiment should seem Ia grow in
favor with a majority of the people,
the Republican party may be expect
ed to have a big. broad woman suff-
rage plank in its next plat
form. The benefits 10 accrue
from woman suffrage is mainly a
matter OF conjecture; that from pro-
per temperance legislation is untoubt-
ed and beneficial But viii the demo-
cracy see ii thus and act accordingly.

PRoF. ELLIOT OF the Smithsonian
Institution says that while the Har-
rison and Miller bills, providing a
civil government for Alaska. are both
simple and effective. he thinks Sena-
tor Miller's bill is best, for the reason
that it provides for a Judge, who will
receive $1,000 per annum, and who
Will be governor ex-ofiicio, and four
commissioners, who will act as mag
istrates, and who will receive $500 per
annum. The criminal and civil laws
of Oregon are. adopted by Miller. and
all appeals from the Judge are to be
taken to a United States Court Judge
IN Oregon. The Miller bill provides
also that the Oregon laws shall be
published in Russian as well as Eng
lish before they shall go into effect.
Prof. Elliot thinks the Miller bill will
become a law before April
