rods in the north that cost 500 and 1900

The Monks of Iowa

About twelve miles from Dubuque.
Iowa, upon ablackened, desolate prairie,
there is Lowell monastery of the most
solemn OF the old Roman sects. Every
morning at o'clock the monks arise.
This we may not look upon as so great
hardship when we are told that their
only bed is hard plank. Then they
pray for seven hours in wooden stalls
that are SO constructed that they will not
permit of their reclining, but which CON-
pei them either to stand or kneel the en-
tire time. Their prayers completed,
their next duty is for each to go into the
yard and dig part OF his own grave,
and when they have it once completed
they fill it up, again aud report the op-
Grafton indefinitely throughout their
lives. They are not permitted to speak
to each other exec pit by special dispen-
sation, which Is very rarely given except
at the close of each meal, when each
says to the other, "Memento mort" re
member that you are to die. Their food
is of the very poorest. So they go on
year after year until they die, when they
are placed in their graves, dug by their
own hands. No headstone with their
name marks their last resting place.
Only the name they have adopted when
entering the MONASTERY is placed above
them; all else is omitted.

George Westinghouse

New York Sun.
George Westinghouse owes his great
and rapidly increasing wealth to his in
ventive genius. Twenty years ago he
was poor young man, but he struck it
rich in his air brake for railroads, and
money has since flowed into his Golfers
in golden stream. He is one of the
most prolific inventors of the age, and
has enough good mechanical ideas to fur
nish every manufacturing establishment
in Pittsburg with successful specialties.
He is not only highly skilled in theoreti-
cad and practical mechanics, but is also q
thorough electrician. He expends an
ordinary fortune every year in expert
ments necessary to the perfection of his
inventions. By warrant of the king Of
Belgium he is entitled to the title Of Sir
George Westinghouse, having been
knighted by that monarch as recogni
ton OF his services TO the world as an
inventor. He is native of New York
state, and is about 40 Years old.

Counterfeit Dodge.

A new departure in the matter of coun-
terfeiting money was brought to light at
the United States subtreasury in Balti-
more few days ago. A somewhat worn
$40 government bill was presented at
the cashiers window with a request for
change, which was given. The note was
sent to Washington as mutilated currency,
and was returned with information that
one side of the note was good, but the
other side was well executed counter
felt of the original. It was found that
$40 bill had been split, the face being
from the back, seemingly
Undertaking. The original
face, with counterfeit back, had been
Used, and it is quite likely that the gen.
uine back, with well executed face, had
been passed in some other quarter. Later
the g 4me was tried to be worked at the
subtreasury, and the party, finding him
self discovered, hurriedly left before he
could be captured.

Naples spread before them, rejecting
here and there the light of the moon and
stars. Ischia and Capri lay dark upon
the waters. The little towns along the
coast and Naples in the distance seemed
but beaver shadows on the land, with
here and there twinkling point OF
light.
On and on, hour after hour. at last
they reached the wide plateau of scarcely
cooled va, which seemed to scorch thei.
feet as they passed over its curious con-
torted waves. lurid light was reflected
from the molten lava within the volcano.
upon the clouds of smoke and steam
which hung above.
Then tiercer struggle, and they la
bored up the steep cone and paused at
the edge of the crater.
"Alittle moment!" begged poor Felic-
tia, and kneeling beside the rough cofIiu,
with trembling fingers once more told
her beads. The pillows of smoke rolled
over and over in the huge caldron; it's
hot, sulphurous breath almost choked
them, and showers of stones and ashes
leaped high into the air above their
heads, and then fell back again. The
men tied the ropes they had brought
with them around the box. lowered it as
fast as they were able, relinquishe6 their
hold, and all was over; while like dis
charge of artillery was the constant noise
of the flying stones ard ashes.
A wild impulse seized Felicita to throw
herself in also. Love and grief surged
in her heart with all the strength and in
tensity of her youth. She lived again
through that bitter parting at Capri, and
the fierce miseIsy OF it's after time. AT
last-at last hope was dead! What re-
NAMED for her in her dreary, SOLITARY
days, that she should 60 back to them?
A moment more aud she had yielded
But there came another thought! What
if she had brought upon her soul some
ineffaceable stain by allowing this
strange burial, with no priest or prayer
save hers? And-oh! terrible thought!
Who would pray for the repose of
Luigi's soul if she was gone? Love,
stronger than death, still ruled her.
This, then, was the lits work that re-
manned to her, and slowly and sadly she
turned to retrace her steps.
1t took little to keep her, as she wan
dered from place to place, working some
times, begging more often as she grew
older. Day after day, year after year,
once beautiful woman fast aging could
be seen kneeling in the churches at Res
ina, at Portici, at Naples, telling her
beads, praying ever for one object-the
repose of soul.

TOMORROW AND YESTERDAY
By ELLA W. WILCOX.

Tt is better to lean toward tomorrow
Than to weep over suns that are set;
The future holds hope that we borrow,
The past only offers regret.
From the past we can again no concession
1t is voiceless and clothed like the night
But the fair disIant hills OF p-3gression
Are crowned with glory Ct light!
To-morrow's VIII te beautiful pages
Are YOURS to write on as you may;
But with the closed ledger of ages
Are yesterdays leaves locked away.
To the future let now be beholien,
And not to a day that is gone:
There was never sunset so golden
But 10 yelier still in soma dawn,
No recompense, no satisfaction,
Rewards t ose who seek for the past,
But the soul that is rest less with action
Will find all it longs for at last.

was coming in from ride at just the
time the churches had finished their
morning service. Bancroft wore a suit
of black, and his white locks were crown
ed with cap which had large visor
covering the eyes. The top of the cap
was fiat and it sat close down upon the
head of tie old historian. Mr.. Bancroft
leaned to the side as he rode, and he ap-
peared very tired, though he would
probably scorn this insinuation, George
Bancroft is now Sc years OF age. His
form is thin and every atom Of it is tough

Gus exercise and simple living he keeps
himself in splendid condition, and he

Indian Clocks.


''That's q ten o'clock line" said an old
gentleman putting his finger on a deli
cate line on one Of the Grand Pacific
maps. "What in creation is 10 o'clock
line?" chorused two young companions
as they traced the line in question from
near the mouth of the Miami river
northwest through Indiana. And then
the old gentleman told how the bounda-
ries of an Indian gram were once made
when the Indians refused to trust to the
surveyors implements. 1.-THE Indians
held short consultation, and the head
man arose and came over to the white
man. That what Indian know he said,
drawing small circle on the ground
with stick, that what white man know,
he said, drawing larger circle around
the FIRST. This what nobody know, he
concluded, pointing to all without the
last circle. white men know that
pointing to the instruments; Indian no
knowit. Indian know the sun. Him
never cheat. Him always same. Him
throw shadow. Indian give white man
land on one side shadow and keep other
side. After big powwow, it was de-
cided that line drawn in the direction
that the sun would cast q shadow from
an agreed point at 10 o'clock should b
made the boundary Of the concession
the white man taking the land on ON
side and the Indian holding that on the
other. The other boundaries Of the con-
cession were those of the original terri
tory of the tribe, supplemented by water
courses and other natural objects. These
lines were frequently used, and became
known as 10 o'clock lines"

and, after glancing over the situation,
drew out his notebook and wrote few
lines on leaf. Tearing the leaf out
he handed it to me and ordered me to
take it to Maj. Reno and Can't.
Benton. This was an order for them to
hurry up with their command. He saw
from the size Of the village that the en-
gagement would be severe one, and he
therefore told me not to attempt to reach

coronation, and Lord Bunborough's was
SO seedy, grea " and worn that shop
man thought it was joke and flung it

which was hunted for in vain, till at last
he recognized the one in the dust hole
as it. He was glad for he hoped my
lord would purchase new head dress;

''Here I am again." The game on his
estate was always sold and the shooting
