ueI odCh.F75s4 itk5 y S5 St1f g4t611 OWL little tails around her big one, ex- actly asAs child clings with it's fingers around ones neck. Then away they go, jolly family, with TOW of little tails curled around a big one.
 Madame Opossum never leaves her children at home to burn themselves or get into mischief when she goes visiting, but, like a careful mamma, she takes them with her.
 You have heard the expression, "Playing 'possum." When this animal is caught it will curl itself up and pretend to be dead. Though knocked about and moved it will keep perfectly still, as though there was not a breath of life in it. But if you let it alone, and go away and leave it, the creature will scamper off to the woods in a hurry. It is not very much dead.
 The opossum looks something like a pig in the face and in the shape of its body. It is about as high as a large cat, but much heavier. It is covered with long, grayish fur. You would know one from this description if you were to see it. You would recog- nize the long, hairless, hooked tail, that is something like the stiff lash of whip.
 The flesh of the animal is good for food. It tastes something like young pig. White people, however, are not fond of it. But to the negro rothing tastes much better than nice, fat, baked 'possum.

 Cor. Chicago Tribune.
 Mir. Phelps might have been the leading man in Vermont if he had wanted. His father was Sen ator more than dozen years ago, and the son was by far the most brilliant youth of his day in the State. Had he chosen to fall in with the anti-slavery sentiment of that time he could LOW undoubt- edly be as renowned, and for much the same reason, as Mir. Evarts But, for reasons peculiar to himself, he became allied, so far as he could interest himself m politics, with the Democracy, and so raised up a mighty barrier to any public preferment. Since then he has been the finest orator and greatest lawyer in Vermont, a man of infinite wit and resource, and, among aristocrats, most pop ular, but among the sturdy Re- publicans of Vermont the personi- fcation of bran power with none of the desires of most men to win public favor. His home in Bur lington IS marvel of taste and elegance, and in 1t he enjoys the choice circle of the small coteries of wealthy and refined men in that city. Brought up in the most Democratic way, educated at Middlebury College, Mr. Phelps seems like an exotic in Vermont, so little has he in common with the people of that State. In 1880 the "unterrified" nominated him for Governor, but he seemed to regard that more as bother than compliment, and paid no atten- tion whatever to the campaign be- yond visiting Gen. Hancock so- cially. Outside of that experiences he took no interest in the matter. He never mingled in politics, for he has little sympathy with our manners and methods in such things, often declaring that he prefers the English system. As a result the Vermont Democrats, though often boosting of Phelps alliance with them, regard him as entirely outside their sphere. His selection as Minister has not the slightest reference to them, the President choosing him more be- cause of his New York than Ver- mont friends,

Her Weight in EaId

Mrs. Jesus Castro, an aged Mexican lady, now residing at American Flag, in the Santa Cati- lima Mountains, is perhaps the only woman who, literally speak ing, ever cost her husband her weight in gold. It is said that in the early gold digging days of California she was resident of Sonora, Tn which State she was born and grew to womanhood. When about the age of IF a pa- ternal uncle, but a few years her senior, returned with his com panions, gold-laden, from the Ell Dorado of the West, and became desperately enamored of her. He sought her hand in marriage and was accepted, but the church re- fused, because of the near rela- tionship existing between them, to solemnize the marriage. Per suasion being in vain, he tried the power of gold to win the church his way, and succeeded only by the payment of her weight in gold. She at the time weighed IF pounds, and against her in the scales the glittering dust was shoveled. Her afianced husband

The OpOsSuIn.

From Golden Days.
 How many of you young people ever went opossum hunting? In the wooded Western, Middle and Southern States this is a favor1te amusement of the country boys, black and white. Sometimes the girls go out, too, along with their brothers and fathers. Of moon light nights, with some lively dogs and lot of lively boys, there is fun. Boys are occasionally will ing to tramp the woods all night, over hill and valley, and wade creeks 'possum hunting, when it almost kills them to work mildly in the cornfeld half a day.
 The opossum is strange ami nal in some respects. Even the young people who have often seen it hardly know how peculiar it is. To begin, it is marsupial. What does that mean? Listen: The Latin word ''marsupium" means a bag. The female opossum has a pouch of folds of skin upon the under part of her body, just in front of her hind legs. In this bag she carries her babies till they are old enough t5 take care of themselves. When first born they are blind, weak and as help less as a human baby. So she carr1es them in the leather pouch, snug and warm.
 After awhile the little ones get too large for their pouch. But their wise mother knows just where to put them then. She re- members what her mother did with her when she was an infant. The opossum has what is called prehensile tail. "Prehensile' means able to take hold of. The opossum tail is long, strong and hairless. At the end it can curl around and catch hold of things exactly as you curve your fingers to grasp something. You have seen monkeys swinging by their tails in cages? Well, that IS the sort of tail the opossum has It can swing from branch to branch of a tree by its tail. When the young opossums outgrow their leather cradle the mother lets them out. She bends her own long, strong tail up over her back. Then she says to her chil-

hear good deal said lately con-
corning complaint made against the
village Marshal for the llagrant neglect
of his duty on the Attn inst, in not
closing the saloons of the village. And
l hear good deal said about the
common council recognizing their
right to sell on that day but all people
of good sense ought to know that
the common council have no more
authority to allow or recognize such a
thing, than / have to authorize man
to steal a horse upon the streets of our
village, such man would know that
horse stealing is a crime by the laws
of the state in which he lives. So do
all saloonists know that liquor selling
on the 4th of July or any other legal
holiday is crime by the laws of the
state in which they live and that the
right is forbidden by the license they
hold. To sell on that day, Qet alone
holding open doors from morning till
midnighU is a fragrant violation of
law and to allow it OH the part Of
officers, whose business it is to attend
to it, is a fragrant breach of trust.
