The Legend Of the KiIlOM.

One day golden-haired child, who
lived where no trees or flowers grew,
was gazing wistfully through the open
gate of beautiful park, when the gar
dener chanced to throw out an nrmful of
dry cuttings Among them the little
girl discovered one with tiny bud Just
starting. perhaps it will grow" she
whispered to herself, and, dreaming of
wide, cool boughs and tluttering leaves,
she carried it carefully home, and planted
it in the darksome area. Day after day
she watched and tended it, and when by
and bye, another bud started, she knew
that the slip had taken root. Years
passed and the lowly home gave place
to pleasant mansion, and the narrow
area widened into spacious garden,
where many green tree threw its shad-
ow. But for the golden haired child,
now grown into a lovely maiden, the
fairest and dearest OF them all was the
one she had 80 tendcrly nourished. No
other tree, she thought, cast such a cool,
soft shade; in no other boughs did the
birds sing so swectly.
But while the tree lived and fourishcd
the young girl dropped and faded.
Sweeter and sadder grew the light in her
blue eyes, till by-und-by Gods angel
touched them with dreamless sleep.
Loving hands crowned the white brow
with myrtle, and under the branches she
had loved laid her tcnderly to rest.
But from that hour as if in sorrow for
the one that tended it, the stately tree
began dropping. Lower and lower bent
the sad branches, lower and lower, until
they caresscd the daiscd mound that
covered her form.
"Seem said the young companions,
"the tree wccps for her who loved it. "
And they called it the weeping willow.

There was Life Ia ite

About eighteen miles above Centralia,
ILL.,, the engineer began to blow toot |!
toot! toot and to slacken his pace, and
by and by the train came to a standstill.
The male passengers rushed out. as IN
duty bound, and in time to see o man
lying on the rails in front OF the engine,
and another man bending over him:
When the crowd, headed by the con-
ductor, reached the spot the man on his
feet explained.
"I discovered him about ten minutes
ago, and as I didn't want to see the
train run over him I gave YOU the sig
NAL" .-
''But why didn't you pull him off the
track2" asked the conductor.
II couldn't be hired to touch a dead
body" was the reply.
"What! is he dead?"
"Reckon he is that"
We examined the body and found life
in it. He was q poorly dressed man,
seemingly in bnd luck, and for the mat
ter of that so was the other.
II think" said the stranger who had
stopped the train, THAT he's taken pizen
and laid down here to make sure work
of it. If you are mind to take him on
to Centralia III kind o. rub him into life
and get doctor to pump him out"
The conductor assented, and we lug
ged the body into the baggage cor. The
case created considerable talk among
the passengers, aud purse of seven dol
lars was made up for the unfortunate.
However, as we slowed up for Centralia
and before the purse was presented,
there was great yelling from the bag
gage car, and we looked out to gee the
two tramps dusting it across the field.
It was game they had played to get
q twcntv-mile lift.--Detroit Free Press.

Caracas and villa by the sea for the
bathing season; and altogether he lives
in the greatest luxury and rules us o most
absolute dcspot. Although nominally
only president of republic, he is in re-
ality an absolute dictator, ruling the
Venczuelans with rod of iron. One or
two examples of the arbitrary mode of
government of President Blanco may be
given. Soon after the railway between
Caracas and La Guayra Gn which he
holds great number OF shares) was
opened he issued decree that all vehicles
on the excellent coach road, which had
always been hitherto used, should be en-

Miss Nellie Gould, the very charming
and accomplished cightccn-year-o
daughter Of Mr.. Jay Gould, who is re-
ported as soon to wed the partner Of her
father, Mr.. Washington Z. Connor, is
one of the brightest and sweetest little
ladies there is in New York city, says
q letter to the Chicago Herald. She has
been finely educated and is highly &C.
complished. She is an artist Of no
mean ability, and her collection of brio
a-brac, which has been adorned by her
pencil and brush, has been greatly ad-
mircd. She dresses plainly, but richly,
and when in town can be seen any after
noon driving through the park with her
brother George and Wash" by her side.
She has attended one or two private
germans, but cannot be said to have sn.
tered the gay society whirl. She is
quite reserved, and to a certain extent
retiring, traits strongly characteristic of
her father, the king of Wall street.
She is probably the richest hcircss in
America, and on her fathers death will
come in for $50, 900 or $50, O,OO0,-
