A VANISHING EFFECT.

Two persons-a man and girl
were walking slowly down a pictur-
esque and precipitous path beside a
mountain tarn, that was set like a
glstening purple gem deep in ridge
of emerald wood, and among peaks all
gold in the summer sunshine.
The girl was trim, sedate and
pretty young creature, with the calm
features of Madonna, large and med
itative dark eyes, and dark hair that
was smoothly knOtted beneath a grace
full alpine hat. Her neat figure was
clothed in serviceable gray fabric. and
her small feet were strongly shod; she
carried too fanciful staff, and a
leathern strap crossed one pretty
shoulder and supported leathern bag
at her slim waist. Altogether there
was something about her that suggest
ed the scrupulous and the Independent,
and perhaps also the prim and the
Opinionated.
Her companion was tall and blonde,
and muscular, with dreamy brown
eyes and womanish chin His luxuri-
Gus mustache was fastidiously waxed
and perfumed, and he wore exceeding
ly modish garments, and he had the in
definably irreproachable presence of a
parsonage whom society delighted to
favor.
AS the two slowly descended, chat
ting in a desultory and harmonious
fashion, the young man abruptly
stopped, with an expression of sudden
and intense interest in those dreamy
eyes, which were fixed toward little
hollow beneath them.
"Who is she, Annie, do you knowp
that lady on the bank below usp" he
asked the girl beside him.
She glanced in the direction indicat-
ed, but she perceived only an empty
green hollow, blank wall of rustling
leaves and solitary wild bird perched
in songless silence on huge bare
boulder.
"Why, AL, l see nobody at all" she
said
you did not see her because she is
gone. She vanished he murmured,
with regret that was almost gro
tesque, ''llke a vision, or figure in
mirage. | shall wonder presently do
beautiful genii inhabit these unscaled
peaks and unexplored forests, or if
there be some enchanting naiad of the
tarn to allude and elude the sight.
Annie drew her madonna brOws to-
gethcr in pretty frown of distaste at
his little rhapsody; she was much too
prim and practical to encourage any
proclivities for exaggerated sentiment
or enthusiasm of fancy.
"And / shall wonder presently if
your wits have gone wandering" she
said, in her clear and placid tones. II
am really inclined to doubt that you
saw anybody"
"Ah! but did, indeed. And there
he is again." he returned, lifting his
sarge soft hand with an admonitory
gesture toward sunny gap in the

Gen. Banks as Speaker.

When it was announced that Mr..
Banks was elected speaker of the
house of representatives the enthusi-
asm on the part of the supporters of
that gentleman knew no bounds, and
wild huzzas went up, and other eX-
travagant manifestations of JOY pre-
vailed. Ladies in the galleries waved
their handkerchiefs, whilst Il few of
the "sovereigns," who had been look
ing on anXiously, applauded, in view
was now ended. During the proceed
ings the excitement was, if possible,
increased by the startling cry that a
boy was being crushed to death in the
galleries. Members, looking to the
gallery, loudly cried: "Let the crowd
fall back" "Don't kill himr' Hand
him over the rail-" etc. The masses
waved too and fro, everyone inn
patiently desiring TO learn, by occular
demonstration, the true condition of
the lad. However, this part of the
play was soon over, and the victim of
the crowd relieved from his danger.
Mr.. Banks delivered brief but neat
speech, and, of course, was noisily
greeted by his friends. He performed
his duties like one long accustomed to
the chair, calm, self-possessed and
ready for business. His bearing upon
the occasion was the theme of admira-
ton. He leased one of the houses
known as the chain buildings, because
of the chains around small inclosure
in front, and gave dancing receptions,
which were attended by members of
all political parties. - Ben: Perley POore.

THE MOON ABOVE THE HILL.

AS IL shone I'm other eyes,
With its flood of silver light,
All ripple through the leavesl
Is IL rising, rising still,
The fair moon above the hilli
Il 1t shining on tonight,
When 1t cannot kiss her brow
Cannot touch the small hands white;
Cannot crown her tresses now2
Does it care TO shine on still,
The fair moon above the hilli
Is It pecring in and out
Thro' the garden, up the lane,
Seeking everywhere about,
In a restless yearning vainl
Is IL looking for her still,
The fair moon above the hill!
Is 1t creeping in the hail.
Where the door stands open wide,
Where her lightsome foot did fall,
When she entered there, bride!
Does II dream she cometh still,
The fair moon above the hill
Is IL growing wan and pale,
Sinking down beneath a cloud,
AS my 1arling I'm Deaths vale
Lying hidden in her shroud
Seeks ii her I'm Heaven still,
The fair moon above the hill?

recently, ten millions of dollars were re-
presented. The roundup was arranged
for May 25th, and Joseph Scott was de-
tailed. to visit Washington and petition
the secretary of the interior to make
some adequate provision for the support
of the Cheyenne Indians on the Tongue
and Rosebud rivers, who are driven by
starvation to depredate upon the herds
of that region. Their provisions are ex-
hausted, and they are living on one
third rations. They must starye or else
raid the stock ranches. The Indians
have already killed many cattle, and
the ranchmen propose to prevent fur

Nothing is more disgusting than a foul breath
caused by catarra. It has caused more separations
between man and wife and lovers than all other dis
eases combined. Nothing is more revolving for a
handsome young couple, thinking that they loved
each other, than for the first time that they pressed
one anothers lips for one of them to have q bad breath
caused by catarrh. "W ell, mother, / thought loved
that young man, but he has got such a bad breath l
have got 50 I fairly detest and hate him. is the re-
mark of the young lady; and that is the way with
married people. They get so they hate one another,
all from the cause of a scrofulous case of catarrh.

STOCK
Contributions for this page respectfully solicited
from stockmen and others.l


The following Neosho Falls dispatch
of the ed inst. will be read with inter
est in this stock growing center, show
ing that no apprehension need be felt
from the supposed plague that broke
out in Kansas and other western states:
The following veterinary surgeons
have been in consultation here, and
have made a thorough examination of
the alleged cases of foot and mouth dis
ease among the cattle in this locality !:
DIR. Beattie, of Chicago; DR.. d. e. Sal
mon, veterinary of the department of
agriculture; DR.. M. Trumbower, Of
Sterling, Illinois; DR.. Geo. C. Faville,
of the Colorado state agricultural col
lege DR.. E. E. Hazard, an old Scotch
surgeon, now of Lexington, Kentucky /;
DIR. Harris, of Lexington, Kentucky !;
DR.. Stocker, of iowa. These gentlemen
are positive they have discovered the
source of the trouble, and all agree:
First-That it is not the epizootic APP
tina, lacking many of the important
symptoms Of that disease. It is not the
lack of care, neither is it the alkali
water. 1t is no contagious disease what
ever, as not a new case has appeared for
weeks in the infected districts, although
the weather has been moist and wet.
DR.. Salmon says that as 10 as he
saw the cattle he thought of ergot, and
then proceeded to examine the hay.
This had not been done before. They
found that it contained a large amount
of wild rye, which was full Of ergot.
The surgeons all say they eve saw
one-twentieth as much ergot in a bunch
of feed. The theory is that the ergot,
by contracting the blood vessels and
otherwise retarding circulation in the
extremities, causing the feet to freeze.
This ends the great scare. While it
has proved not to be a contagious di-
sease, yet the people of this section did
only what was prudent to do. Finding
a disease among the cattle which they
did not understand, they reported it to
the governor. He applied to the general
government for the best skill they could
furnish. The department of Missouri
sent an expert whom they fully recon-
mended. The agricultural department
at Washington sent another. Their de-
cision has been published far and wide.
While many did not give full faith to
the verdict Of these experts it was
thought to be the duty of the commu-
nifty, in justice to the people Of other
sections, to act in accordance with their
decision.
