A Pointed Illustration.

= The importance of writing dis
tinctly when writing for publication
was recently Illustrated in a magazine
in London. IL a clergyman's letter
from Asia nc meant to write 1.-THE peo-
pie of Judea," but the printer made it.
''the people of India" The manuscript
was submitted TO an expert chirograph-
ist, who decided that the printer was
entirely justified. The clergyman $.
",Judea,' as written, had an instead

impossible to decide whether the next

the other. People who write carelessly
and indistlnctly, when writing for pub
LEGATION, have nobody but themselves to
blame when mistakes are made in print
ing names of persons or places. The
printer is usually wonderfully expert in
deciphering bad writing, but he can not
perform miracles. As an experiment,

A SUMNER SONG.

o, lovely sunbeams, through the meadows
dancing,
On golden pinions, all the livelong day,
Missing young leaves, on crystal streamlets
Changing to living gold their silver spray.
Wee amorous elves, coquetting with the
wooing the daisy in her grassy bed, =
Till the shy flower unconsciousy unclOses
Her dewgemmed leaves, and bushes rosy
red.
Gliding gray rocks, on rugged mountains
Bidding the flowers in sheltered hooks
awake,
Calling young song birds from their happy
dreaming,
Waking the laughter of the dimping lake a..
Playing "Bopecp' amid the white buds
blowing
In pearly clusters on the hawthorn tree,
To the round eyes of wondering childhood
The rapid journeyings of the wandering
bee.
Shedding halo bright on youthful tresscs,
Bidding young hearts for very rapture sing,
Touching the brow of care with kind caresses,
Or glinting lightly on the Skylark wing.
All merry sunbcams, like sly cupids straying
In the glad footsteps of the rustic lass,
On sun-tanned checks and snow white ker-
chief playing,
Twinklmg like firehes in the emerald grass.
o, lovely sunbeams, like hlcst angels gliding
Through courts OF squalor, sickness, want
and gloom,
Telling of clouds like golden chariots riding
Proudly majestic DER Il world of bloom;
OF winding lanes, ana milk-white homesteads
pecpiTN
Like modest virgins from secluded bowers;
OF shallow pools, and baby Streamlets Caping
In giddy gladness meath housekeeping
flowers.
Dance, lovely sunbeams, through fair coun-
try meadows.
Battle hill and cottage in your holy light.
From city slums go chase the mOurnful
shadows
That fill poor hOmesteads with eternal
night.
To those who pine in ignorance and sorrow
May all your tendercSt hottest gifts be
given,
That sorrowing hearts one ray of hope may
may borrow
In the sweet knowledge that We come from
Heaven!

THE ROUEN CATHEDRAL.
Description of the Place Where Ricbar,
Cmur de Lion is Buried.

C@ur de Lion is Buried.
The Rouen Cathedral itself, though
defaced by an elongated iron nutmeg
crater which has the impudence to call
itself cupola, is magnificent as a mass
when first seen from the corner, and
finer still when examined in detail from
the wonderful gallery of carvings
around its great gate to the long-necked
gargOyles that stretch their misshapen
heads like hungry graffes from the
angles of its mighty tower.
The interior is somewhat disappoint-
ing after the grand outside, but beneath
its smooth white pavement lies buried
many an eyentful chapter of history
Here the Zion heart of Richard Cpur
de Lion lies cold and still forever Here
John of Bedford, the destroyer of Joan
of Are, sleeps in the same earth that
hides his victim. Here Prince Henry
of England, cut off in the flower of his
youth, rests in the heart of the fair land
that England has lost forever. And
here. in the ground that his own right
hand wrested from the terrified King of
France, mOlder the bones of grim old
Rolf, or Rollo, the first Duke of Nor
mandy, who, when King Charles the
Fat offered him his daughter and the
seaboard of Normandy on condition of
his becoming Christian, answered with
a business-lke frankness and prompti-
tude natural to the most eminent pirate
of the age:
II take the maid, or foul or fair, a bargain
with the coast
And for thy creed sea kings gods are those
that give the most"

FOR OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
A LESSON IN BUILDING.

How shall I a habit break?''
As you did that habit make.
As you gathered, you must lose;
As you yielded, now refuse.
Thread by thread the strands we twist
Till they bind us, neck and wrist;
Thread by thread the patient hand
Must untwine ere free we stand.
As we buildcd, stone by stone,
We must toll, uuhclped, alone,
Till the wall is oVcrthrown.
But remember, as we try,
Lighter every test goes by:
Wading in, the stream grows deep
Toward the CCntcr'S downward sweep;
Backward turn, each step ashore
ShallOwer is than that before.
All, the precious years we waste
IcVeling what we raised in haste:
Doing what must hc undUne
Ere content or love he won!
First, across the gull we cast
kitc-hOrnC threads til lines are passed
And habit builds the bridge nj last!

CHICAGO, March l7.-Reports from Hi
nois, Indiana and D,kata in regard to grain
and fruits is not encouraging. The damage
to the top of the wheat plant by the alter
mating frosts and thaws of the winter has
been quite general in the two states men
ticned, and in southorn Indiana the
njnry done has been especially severe
Out Of thirty-siX counties reported-seven-
teen of Indiana and nineteen Of Illinois-in
eleven of Indiana and in four of Illinois the
prospect for even a fair crop on the present
outlook is not encouraging Eight
counties Of Illinois and two coun-
ties of Indiana Clay and Johnson-re-
port that wheat has weatherei the winter
well. L1to-sown and upland wheat seems to
have suffered more severely than that sown
early in the fall and in the lowlard,
In some sections clover seems to have been
killed out. The peach crop in all sections
has been practically ruined, but apples AMI
small fruits, especially stcawberriej. have
been more fortunate.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, March 17.-Up to noon
Monday, nothing has been received here
from the striking points on the
Missouri Pacific indicating definitely
whether the men will accept Vice
President Hayes circular as q solu-
tion of the trouble and return to work
Dispatches from few points dated Sunday
night show that some of the men, as indi-
vidualS, view the circular favorably, but
the managing committees at various points
hold off, and will give no directions until
instructions come from Sedata At one OF
two points in Texas trains have been made
up and moved, and at Hannibal, No, three
trains are said to have been sent out, hut So
far no general action has been taken, and.
everybody is waiting adyices from head
quarters at Sedalia
The Missouri Pacific officials here state
that the strikers at Sedalia, Parsons, Deni-
son and Atchison refuse to return to work
unles a written guarantee is given not to
discharge any Of the strikers within year
from this date At all other places the men
have all returned to work. No action has
yet boon taken by the railroad officials. At
Kansas City the strikers are still out, and at
Sedalia the trouble is believed to be about
over.
JEFFERSON CITY, No, March ia great
deal of anxiety is felt by the authorities
over the refusal of the strikers at Sedalia to
accept the terms offered by the railroad
officials. The governor telegraphed to Sc
dalia, inquiring the cause of the trouble
and whether to send any militia. Labor
Commissioner Kochtitzky, who is now at
Sedalia, telegraphed the governor that the
strikers do not understand the railroad COM

An Agreement Between Officials That

Other Labor News

ST. LOUIS, Mo, March 17.-The res ult of
the conference between the railroad officials
and state officers of Missouri and Kansas
Sunday was more satisfactory than could
reasonably have been expected. 1t was at
tended by the governor of Kansas in person,
the governor of Missouri by proxy, all
three state railroad commissioners of
Missouri, all three state railroad com
missioners OF Kansas, the attorney general
and the state labor commissioner of
Missouri, Messrs. Hayes and Hoxie, the first
vice president and the third vice president
of the Missouri Pacific road, ex-Cioy, Brown
of Tenne see, the general solicitor of the
Gould system, I. j. Ports, attorney of the
Missouri Pacific road, and Messrs. Solon
Humphreys and Thomas L. Tut, receivers
of the Wabash road The conference was
with closed doors, and was perfectly har-
moaious; the state officials all spoke in favor
of granting the strikers substantially their
demands, and the state labor COM
missioner of Missouri presented the claims
Of the strikers and reported what he had
seen and heard in his visits among them.
After all had spoken, the railroad officials
retired and tho state officials drew up
proposition.
After the proposition had been indorsed
by the state officials the railroad officials
were recalled, and it was read to them. Mr.
Hayes at once attached his name and Mr.
Hoxie issued an order to carry out the pro-
visions of the agreement.
The strikers asked that the rates Of last
September be restored April l. The agree
ment restores those rates fifteen days ahead
of time. In this matter the strikers are
given more than they demanded. They
asked that these rates be maintained one
Year The agreement says that the rates
shall not be cut except at months notice
Under the agreement the men are to DO
taken back and none of them discharged on
account of the strike.
Thor victory is no surprise to the strikers
They anticipat ted nothing elsa. At first the
men felt like demanding yearly contracts,
alleging that tie promises Of the managers
were mere ropes OF sand and that the load
ers Of the strike were sure to he victimizad
at the first opportunity. From several town
in Texas ami Missouri however, word has
been received that the men are returning to
work, and it is expected that in twenty-four
hours the freight blockade will be broken all
along the Gould lines
CHICAGO, March 16 - Dispatches have
been received by the Wabash officials in this
city stating that peace has boen fully re
stored, and that trains are moving on all the
GoulI lines. Nearly all the strikers, the dis
patches say, have returned to work, and
there is no disposition whatever to hold out
for better terms than those offered by the
managers.
