Lumberman HeceiYes Consequential Dam,
ages.
While on hunting excursion in the great coal
and wood region of Carbondale, Pa, the writer
met William Coil, a lumberhan. Accustomed to
life and labor in the forests from early manhood,
he wss true Knight of the Axe. Many a tree
had fallen before his ringing strokes and fleets of
RATS had borne away TO market the sawed pro-
ducts. Coil Is character, and il Oscar Wilde is
right in saying that all movements in unhindered
labor ere graceful, our friend William stripped for
his work, and attacking tree as Richard l. as.

must have presented an admirable picture.

The boys naturally took TO tbs water like
go many Newfoundland puppies. Where
ever there were brooks and quiet pools they
were to be seen, at any hour of the day, fish
ing, swimming, and wsding. One bright-e7ed
little sportsman, who had provided himself
with two formidable bean-shootsr, gravely
asked his host If the woods back Of the house
were "gsmy."
The boys were always saying queer things,
which convulsed the jolly farmers with
laughter. 'sWho watered those plants last

fhe Celebrated Mccormick Wins Another
Triumph at Oxford, Ind.
But Five Competitors Have the
Nerve to Stand Up to
the Rack.
The Osborne, Buckeye. champion and
Minneapolis Weaken and Fail
10 Come TO Time.
By Cor sent, the Mccormick shonld be Ae
knoWJedged the Worlds Champion, and
Ruled out OF Future Contests.

OxFoRD, Ind, June 23.-Following closely
upon the heels of the great triumph at Lex
ington, Ky, comes another equally signif-
cant victory for the Mccormick at this place
to-day. There were six machines engaged,
viz: The Deering, bennett, Plano, Empire,
st. Paul sud Mccormick. 1t was announced
for some days prior TO the contest that nine
machines would enter, in which would be
included the Osborne, Buckeye, Minneapolis
ard Champion.
1t was rot expected that the Mccormick
would come into the trial, as there is no
sgency for this machine here just at this
time Several of the contestants who were
rejoicing at this state of things were amazed
day or two since to discover that Mckinney
Bros, of Fowler, proposed taking hand in
the picnic with the Mccormick. After the
recent continued victories of this machine,
the Osborne, Buckeye, Minneapolis and
Champion concluded that they had had just
about enough, hence changed their minds
and weakened, failing to appear on the
ground. The plan was, the challenging ma
chine led off in the trial. The field contained
green rye, and, the ground being very soft,
ard in some places almost swampy, all were
put upon their mettle. 1t seems almost useless
to repeat the occurrences of the day. 1t was
simply the old, old story Of another McCor-
mick triumph. There were, however, one or
two points which add to the laurels of the
victorious Mccormick in an unusual degree.
While moving the machine from the town to
the field one of the canvas rollers was badly
damaged, and, in face of this, her work so
won the admiration of the crowd that, could
a vote have been taken. she would have Sc
cured three-fourths of all present. 1t was
another wellearped triumph, and one would
think that In future contests it was about
time to rule the Mccormick out as the
acknowledged champion of the world, for it
is an iHcontrovertble fact that when the
Mccormick enters field trial other machines
Go not stand the ghost of chance.

Did you ever hear of baby-csge2 Minnie
had never seen one, and she thought of it
call by herself" as she said.
Minnie's mamma was not strong and they
went 70 spend the summer in the mountains
of North Carolina. They stayed at large
boarding q house. There were many farm
houses on the place. The barn stood g great
vsy from the house where Minnie boarded.
John, the hostler, fond of Minnie. She
often rode with him from the house to the
barn when the ladies came home from their
afternoon drives. Minnie used 70 walk back
to the hOuse. One dsy "a she was passing
the door of log house, between tbs barn
and the great house, she heard some ba bies
crying. She stopped, and went into the
house. A eolored womsn was ironing a. a
table Two poor little black babies lay crTT--
ing on the floor. Minnie went near them
and spoke to them. The flies were very
plenty, and were crawling over the poor bs-
bies' fsces.
Minnie wondered Why the flies did not go
down the babies throats, for their mouths
were wide open when they were crying.
She brushed them away AMI tried 10 quiet
the little ones. The woman told her that
The babies mothers were up ct the big house
at work. Minnie felt very sorry for the
poor little things. She knew the flies would
trouble them as soon as che left them. Min
ME thought shout it great deal thst even
ing. At last che said, al know Whist we can
do. We can build a baby-csgeI" She then
ssked John to make large frame, in the
shape of box, to go over the babies. MIN
ME and her mamma covered the frame
with pretty pink mosquito netting.
John carried the baby-csge to the little
log house. Minnie went with him, taking
tome Of her playthings. Minnie gave the
toys to the babies, ana set the cage over them.
She first scared away ell the flies. All the
company at the large house wished to see
"Minnie's invention IS they called it.
Zach one paid "nickle" TO Minnie for look
ing at the baby-cage. She gave the money
70 the bsbies' mothers, to buy some clothing
for them.

OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
Mobility.


True worth is In being-nct seeming;
In doing each day that goes by
some little good-hot in the dreaming
OF great things r. do by and by,
For whatever men say in blindness,
And spite of the fancies OF youth,
There's nothing so kingly "a kindness,
And nothing so royal as truth.
We get back our mete as we measure
We can not do wrong and feel right,
Nor can we give pain and gain pleasure,
For Justice avenges each slight.
The air for the wing OF the sparrow,
The bush for the robin aud wren,
But always the path that is narrow
And straight for the children of men.
We can not make bargains for blisses,
Nor catch them ike fishes ia nets;
And sometimes the things our life misses
Helps more than the thing which 1t gets.
For good lieth not In pursuing
Nor gaining of great nor of small:
Bot Just in the doing, aud doing
AS we would be done by, is all.
Thro' envy, thro' malice, thro' hating,
Against the world, early and late,
No lot Of our courage abating-
Our part is to work and TO wait.
And slight is the sting of his trouble
Whose winnings are less than his worth;
Tor he who is honest is noble.
Whatever his fortunes or birth.
