On Saturday afternoon, as Frau Ma

enue Market House, she passed the
stand of vender of hams, bologna
sausages, &C., whose business was not
at all interrupted by the matinee.
CHANGING to look up, the Wagnerian
prima donna saw some sausage and
blood pudding hanging on hooks in the
butchers stand. She stopped, and a
slow, progressive Wagnerian smile
stole over her noble couutenance.
Dem wuz nize puddins," she ex-
claimed.
"Dem's de pest puddings efer you
etc. said the butcher man In an ex-
cited tone. "Vil you hef pite?'
Again that Wagnerian smile stole
from its pasture, and the artist put
forth her hand.
In flutter of delight the butcher
cut two or three inches of pudding
from one of the coils and presented II
on a brOwn-paper charger.
Materna ate it slowly and with great
relish, wiped off her hand on the paper
and. smiling for a third time, said to
the butcher:

went out to charm the multitude, un-
conscious OF having performed feat
which would have appalled, an Ameri-

Life's Arithmetic.

Inarude school house where sunbeams fall
And make quaint shadows along the wall
Sat little boy with his brown arms bare
With tear-stained face and sunny hair,
Flooding Il lesson with school-boy hate,
From ink dashed book and battered slate
''No rest, no rest till the task is done,
Two are equal to one and one."
In quiet room where moonbeams fall,
EAnd make quaint shadows along the wall,
Our school-boy now to manhood grown,
Is holding maiden's hands in his own,
Adding, as on that summers day,
But adding now in a different way
"One and one are only one:
One from million will leave none."
In a noisy room where laugh and call
Awake strange echoes along the wall,
And children shout and romp about,
And turn the house all inside out,
Our boy of old, with fathers smile,
Holding a babe in his arms the while;
Studies, still studies times changing slate !;
But cone and one now equal eight"
In Il churchyard old, where shadows fall
Heavy and thick, like sombre pail,
BY the grass s-grown graves of his lewly dead
Sits gray haired man, with bowed head !;
An aged man of grief and care;
The school-boy once, with sunny hair.
The eight that were are now but one."

The trial of Cunningham and R,r.
ton, who were charged with hein~ the
perpetrators of the dynamite outrapes
IN IIondon-including the attemnt to
blow up the tower OF London and the
parliament buildings-ended In their
conviction of treasnn-felony. They ra-
ceived sentence of penal ser ryitude for
life. Thus ended trial remark hla
in many respects as one Of the most
notable since that of the famous Itch.
borne claimant. The evidence wac
purely circumstantial and far from be-
ing strong enough to convict any but
an Irishman, tried By an English Jury
in an English court. The severity Of
the sentence was fOreshadOwed in the
charge of Judge Hawkins to the jury.
This charge, though able and master
ly, in sense, was plainly made on be-
half of the prosecution. It was not an
impartial weighing of the evidence, SO
much as an effort to give additional
force and strength to the testimony
against the prisoners. The govern
ment had brought the men to trial and
their conviction became a necessity.
No circumstance that could tell against
them was overlooked, while those In
their favor were either made light Of
or entirely ignored.
This may be English justice, but II it
is, it can hardly be such as we wish to
see initiated in this country. Here JUS
tice occasionally miscarries, but it is
rare indeed that prejudice so blinds
the eyes of judge and jury as to lay
them open to the charge of being men,
bers OF q court "organized to convict"
impartial papers = observing the
course of this trial from the beginning
say that no Englishman would have
been convicted OH the testimony that
sends Cunningham and Burton to pris-
on for life. True, they may not have
clearly established their innocence, but
they certainly did make much better
showing ia that direction than did the
government in proving their guilt.
Their burden and weight of proof rest
ed with the government, vet all it
could offer was circumstantial. The
prisoners received the benefit of no
doubt, while every circumstance
against them was made much of and
into an Importance out OF all
proportion to its actual force and
weight.
Such a trial can be regarded in no
other light than that of solemn farce
Or travesty. It will not tend to pro-
mote better feeling toward England
among the Irish, but will, on the con-
trary, intensity the bitterness and hat
red aireaGy existing. 1t is but anoth-
er evidence of the fact that Ireland has
nothing to hope for from England, and
as consequence other men of desper-
ate daring will be found ready to carry
On the dynamite business whenever
opportunity offers. AS matter Of
course, if Cunningham and Burton
were guilty of the crimes charged,
they should have been convicted and
punished. but not upon circumstances
80 trivial as those accepted by this
English judge and jury as sufficient to
a sentence Of penal servitude
for life.-Jeferson City Tribune.
