factories those 10 which the farmers send
cream, retaining the Skinned or separated
milk. are known As cresmerie-, aud those
OF the third class, which nnlsh of butter
churned by farmers separately, are termed
butter factories for the sake OF distinction,
though al are 10 reality butter factories.
The creamery system Is preferred Tor va.
Hon. reasons, the chief OF which are that
the Skinned milk Is more valuable on the
farm for pigs and calves than FOR sale from
A factory, and that while milk has 10 be
sent 20 the factory twice daily, cream
needs only 20 be sent every second day (;
ard As 10 the comparison OF cresmeries
with butter factories OF the third class, the
former are preferred. because II Is easier

The Dream Came True


A student in one of our local educa-
tional institutions had a peculiar dream
about a fortnight ago, which, unlike
many mental conceptions which nightly
arise from an oyerworked brain, came
true to the letter. lie dreamed that on
the following Friday fortnight he would
be seized with a violent sickness,
which was TO keep him confined
to his room for the space OF a week.
He informed one of his bosom friends
next morning Of the strange message
he had received during his peaceful
slumbers. His companion, however,
received the information, which was
impaired with a sense Of fear and trem-
bling, in a somewhat skeptical manner,
which chagrinned the dreamer very
much but, strange to relate, the youth
full laborer in the domain Of science,
who during the interval was haunted
by dread Of his impending sickness, fell
a victim to the power Of his over-imagi-
nation on the very day indicated, not
outstanding that the previous night he
attended " social " at friends house
till the small hours Of the morning, ap.
parently in good spirits. The day pre-
yious TO his becoming i'll he issued a
mandate to have his sleeping apartment
put in order, so strong was his belief in
the truth Of the dream. \ medical
man was called in and remedial mea-
sures were applied to the patients relief,
but he remains firm in his conviction
that the foreshadowed sickness must
continue for the specified time.

The other day a farmer-looking man
entered a Griswold-street bank with a
a check, which he handed to the paying
teller, and which was at once returned
to him with the remark:
mo money here"
"What. Are you out Of money? F"
asked the caller.
"Oh, no. | mean that the man
whose name is signed there has no
money on deposit here"
ais that so? Why, he's one of the
incest men l ever met"
"That may be, but his check isn't
worth anything here"
"Isn't, Ell? Why, be boarded with
me a whole month, and we think every
thing of him. Maybe he's got money
here and it's mislaid somewhere"
1.-THE check is worthless, sir. He
never had dollar on deposit here"
"Neyer did. Ell? l don't see how it
comes about. When asked him for
his board money he wrote this check
out as quick asa wink. You couldn't
pay it and trust him for the money,
eh?"
The teller looked at him in a sorrow
full way for moment, and the man con-
tinued:
"You'd better do that way. hate
to hurt his feelings, you know u
"Say, that check is worthless, and l
don't want you to bother me ~ ex-
claimed the teller.
"You don't, ehs Well, l won't, but
I think it's q mean sort Of trick on your
part. When . man goes and writes q
check right of like he did it ought to
be paid. When 60 home and he asks

poverty, and accounting for it by the
neglect of his personal appearance
which was characteristic Of his senility.
No great wonder that if the old soldier
become SLOUGH, it should be said he IS
about to die. The last stage is nearly
reached when the martinez becomes q
sloyen.
Francois Achille Bazaine was born
February 13, 1911. He was twenty
years old when he entered the army.
Louis Philippe being then King of the
French. The young officer served in
Spain against the Carlists, and in AL
geria, always with distinguished cour"
age and ability, recognized in 1886 by
his being given the Cross of the Legion
of Honor. In the Crimean war he was
made a general of brigade and general
of division. lie was promoted to be
commander Of the legion in 1856. In
1859 he served in the campaign against
Austria. When the French invaded
Mexico. in 1862, he held high COM
mand, and succeeded Marshal Forey as
head OF the forces in 1868, when he re-
ceiyed the Grand Cross. The next year
he was made marshal Of France. In
1859 the Emperor Napoleon promoted
him to be commander-in-chief Of the
Imperial Guard.
The war with Germany-lS70-'7l-
furnished the scene of Bazaine's highest
distinction and Of his historic disgrace.
At the outbreak Of hostilities he com
manded the Third Army Corps near
Metz. When the battles Of Worth and
Forbach had been fought, disastrously
to the French arms. Marshal Bazaine
took command of the main armies Of
the empire. On August II, 1870, H.
began retreat from Metz, and fought
and lost the bloody battles of MARSHA
Tour and Grayelotte before being forced
back into Metz. This stronghold was
invested promptly by Prince Frederick
Charles, and on October q, 1870, Ba-
zaine surrendered. One hundred and
seventy luOuSauu piiNh'c oOibAOioi WV
six thousand officers, fifty generals, and
three marshals Of France were made
prisoners of war on this occasion, the
largest number Of men ever taken at
ore time. Bazaine fled to England.
This awful blow to the military pride
Of the French people was followed, in
1873, by the trial of Bazaine by court
martial for having failed to do his duty.
He was sentenced to degradation and
death. MacMahon, President Of the
French Republic, committed the sem
tence to Imprisonment for twenty years
in fortress. Bazaine was taken to the
lie Sainte Marguerite, in the Mediter-
ranean sea, from whence he escaped
after nine months Imprisonment. He
visited Germany and England, then re-
moved to Spain, and made his residence
in Madrid.

The Small Boy Not n Martyr 10 Duty.

Close by the centre Of attraction in
the Polish troubles of Saturday was a
cottage occupied by people speaking
English. The father was across the
street leaning on the fence, the mother
was at the gate with shawl over her
head, aud boy about ten years of age
stood in the door holding baby about
nine or ten months old in his arms.
BY and by the baby began to kick and
squall, and the boy called out
"Say, nam Jim's a-howlin' :"
"Yes, | know" she replied, "but |
want to see these policemen knock
somebody"
"He's gittin' red in the face and
holdin' his BREATH" shouted the boy
as he tossed the kid up and down.

mother, without turning her head.

perch clad in his nondescript suit, with
arms akimbo, q torch in each hand,
and the burning hambeau waving
to and fro, be appeared like
some fierce demon sprung from
the bowels OF the earth. The lights
cast fantastic shadows around, and far
up, toward the top Of the chamber,
bizarre shapes we're created by the
Pickering torch. The chamber is spa
cious, filled with massive boulders,
gigantic stalsgmites rise from the floor
like immense pillars, and the roof is
tessellated with myriads Of stalactites,
which were fairly bedazzled with jewels.
In the centre Of the room q lake had
formed, cool, clear, and transparent, and
at its mouth poured strong stream,
madly lashipg over high rocks, and
gushing through small aperture !;
then formed along level bench and then
poured in terrific force for ten feet, with
roar like distant thunder. There
seemed to be no end to this chamber,
and high, high up, the csvernous assure
extended, far out Of range Of the light
Of the torches, into invisible depths be-
yond. TWAS nature in all her grandeur
and sublimity The end Of this cave
has never been reached, and its extent
cannot be estimated.
Some little distance from the mai1
stream another stream has been dis
covered. 1t is the intention of Mr..
Anderson to tunnel to the second stream
and unite it with the main body Of
water. He says it is fully one third as
large as the main stream, and accord
ing to the estimate OF the expert that
would increase the total flow to 2,000,-
600 gallons daily.
