My Letter.

/ read it, my letter, my letter, as safe in my
rocky nest.
The waves at my feet were creaming, and the
wind blew soft from the west;
The sunshine on the tangle-beds was blazing
fiercely down,
And as they wavered to and fro they glowed
TO golden brown,
L heard the cry of the curlews blend with the
breakers roar.
took from my breast my letter, and read it
yet once more.
I read it, my letter my letter, as I loitered by
the sea,
And, as read, my fancy was flying fast and
free,
the purple down:
/ saw the smoky, sullen streets, / saw the
busy town,
/ saw the desk with its dusty load, saw the
dreary room,
And / saw the dark-blue eyes 1 knew, out
shining in the gloom.
/ read it, my letter, my letter, and I saw illu-
The graceful phrase, the graphic touch, the
flash of ready wit.
The tender lingering Ger the words, that even
as he wrote
Seemed as love hovered them, their truth and
depth to note:
The sweet old words whose iterance, to those
that yearn to hear,
But deepens ever down and down, and deep
enlng grows more dear.
7 read it, my letter, my letter; then softly in
fragments small
/ tore the precious pages, and stopped 70 kiss
them ali;
They were safe and sure, the golden words,
rewritten in my heart;
1t were surely best, in a world of change, with
their earthly shrine to part.
So | tore it, my letter, my letter, with smile,
and with sigh,
And tossed them to the sunny sea, beneath
the sunny sky.
To what l have loved so long and well, the
flashing, dancing wave,
To the mighty arms of the great North sea,
the thing priced / gave;
1t should die, my letter, my letter, no COM
mon mortal death,
1t should be rocked upon the oceans breast,
lulled by the oceans breath.
Has monarch kinglier requiem, a chief a
nobler shrine
Than that gave my letter. from that rocky
nest of mine?

Early Experiments of James B. Eads.


"*@~ When about ten years old,
his father fitted for him small work
shop, and there he constructed models
of saw-mills, ire-engines, steamboats,,
steam-engines, electrical and other ma
chimes. One of the pastimes of his
childhood was to take in pieces and put
together again the family clock, and at
twelve years he was able to do the same
with patent-lever watch, with no tools
but his pocket-knife When thirteen,
misfortune overlook his father, and he
had to withdraw from school and work his
own way. His parents went to St
Louis in 1888 and he went with them
The steamer was burned in the night
on the way there, and he landed bare
footed and coatless, on the very spot
now covered by the abutment of the
great steel bridge which he designed
and built. The only opening in the
way of business that offered was to sell
apples on the street, and by this means,
for few months, he sustained himself
and assisted in supporting his mother
and sisters. In time he obtained sit
uation with mercantile firm, where he
remained for five years. One of the
heads of the house having an excellent
library, gave him access to it, and he
used his opportunity well to study sub
jects bearing upon mechanics, ma
chinery, civil engineering, and physical
science. In 1889 he obtained employ
ment as a clerk or purser on a Missis-
sippi river steamer. He again made
the best use of his opportunity to ac-
quire that complete knowledge of the
great river which he was afterward able
to turn to such good account in the
noble enterprises he so fortunately car
ried into effect. In 1912 he constructed
a diving-bell boat to recover the cargoes
of sunken steamers. This was followed
with boat of larger tonnage, provided
with machinery for pumping out the
sand and water and lifting the entire
hull and cargo of the vessel. A COM
pany was formed to operate this device,
and it soon had business that covered
the entire Mississippi river, from Balize
to Galena, and even branched into
some of its tributaries. By his methods,
a great many valuable steamers were
set afoat and restored to usefulness
which it would not previously have been
possible to save, as they would have
been buried very soon beneath the river
sands. 1t was while engaged in this
business that he gained thorough
knowledge of the laws which control
the flow of silt-bearing rivers, and of the
Mississippi he was able to say years
afterward that there was not stretch in
its bed fifty miles long, between St.
Louis and New Orleans, in which he
had not stood upon the bottom of the
stream beneath the shelter of the diving
bell.-POp. Science MOnthLu for Feb'u

Duffy Also a Perturer.

He CONFESSES TO SWEARING FALSELY BEFORE THE
SENATE COMMITTEE.
In the trial OF eX-Alderman McQuade in New
York yesterday eX-Alderman Fullgran, continuing
his testimony said he understood that he was to
have immunity for all his acts as an alderman and
for the perjury before the Senate committee.
The recorder remarked that as the perjury was
committed in the postof1ice building the state
authorities could not grant him immunity.
Fullgraff had headache and could not recol-
lect many details OF the meetings OF the "Com-
before election, except those who were candidates
for reelection. He received So 600 because it was
supposed that he was candidate. After election
Ex-Alderman Duffy next took the stand He
gave his version OF the combine in his usual
Slangy way OF description. This story did not
very materially differ from that given at the last
trial. Mr.. NeWcombe asked him II he knew that
his false evidence in the first trial against his
fellow aldermen and would be likely to send Nc
Quade TO Jail for ten years. Duffy said: eyes SIR
but don't think answered that way over q
dozen times he acknowledged that he had sworn
falsely on the first trial. On his discrimination
he acknowledged committing perjury before the
senate investigation committee when he testified
that he received notice OF the meeting at his Office
through MolOney. This acknowledgment created
ripple OF excitement in the court room, as it was
the first intimatiOn OF perjury on Duffy's part.
The counsel for the defense elected another
acknowledgment from Duffy that he had again
committed perjury before the senate committee
when he testified that he did not know OF any cor
ruptiOn in the board.

FRED EUsTIS CHARGES ADONIS WITH ALTERNATING his
WIFE's AFFECTIONS, AND WANTS DAMAGES.
The Baltimore american to-day says: Theatri-
cal circles have been treated to spicy bit OF Cos
sip. emanating from published statements to the
effect that the marital relations between Mr.. Fred
erick J. Eustis the composer, and his wife, Miss
Ida Bell, as she is known On the stage, are to be
broken up. The New York Herald has published
long accounts OF the affair." and is authority for the
statement that both parties desire separation.
Miss Ida Bell, who before marriage was named Ida
Bell smith, is Baltimore girl and her mother stu
lives in this city. She first went on the stage as
chorus girl OF Fords Grand Opera House, and has
lar as an actress. Two years ago last
autumn she was one OF the chorus girls in
"Adonis," then playing at the Bljou Theater in
New York. She had large number of admirers.
and among them was Mr.. Fred j. Eustis the COM
poser and director of considerable prominence.
The two expressed their preference for each other
and became unitedtn marriage and passed very
happy honeymoon, from all accounts. The young
lady rose in her profession, and from the chorus
was elevated to the position OF principal, being
made one OF the Duchess daughters in s:Adonis .
and attracted more attention and had more adj
mirers than ever. When the AdOnis Company
thither, and the Herald states that Mr. Eustts al
leges that, being removed from his presence, she
became more free, and he charges that there a
prominent actor alfenated his Wife'S affections
and he now wants $4,000 damages. The we'll
known actor, the Herald states is Mr.. Harry
