OF virtue over vice. The character OF

though his "spring vest" could not be

In bringing down tha house. Mis-
Annie McVetgh as Mary Lane proved
herself graceful and pleasing little

well worth seeing, especially by those
who are fond of the sensational drama.

In tender rememb ranee of Josie Ainscov
mo fell asleep in Jesus October TIN, 1881
IN the 18Th yer OF her sge. She WAS
lovpg daughter, . faithful sister, and VA
beloved BY sll who knew her.
Just 81 fades the holy twilight,
Just a. sinks the sun to rest,
just 70 falls the foaming bilIow,
ON the heaving oceans breast.
50 she calmly fell asleep,
Nevermore TO smile or weep.
Though her life was lost unfolding.
Like pure nd fragrant flower,
Bringing forth some unseen poauty.
Ev'ry passing day and hour.
Death was near with jealous eyes.
Watching. longing for his prize.
Longing for the hour TO hasten,
When upon her youthful cheek
He could PRINT his leg kisses,
Hush nor voice so low and meek.
Bear her in his arms away,
TO the sunny gates Of day.
Never shall the hopeful morning
Tend her moving to and fr6;
Mover shal the tender sunset
,Touo1 her brow with golden glow,
morn and night have passed away,
Changed to everlasting day.
HUI he'd and stiIl the voice 90 tender,
Feet once tireloss now ct rect;
Willing hands 80 meekIy folded
On hor mar bls, lifeIess breast;
Eyes 90 quick TO laugh or weep,
CLOSED In slumber long and deep.
But she left q tender mem'ry
To the stricken ones beIos,
Brighter than the fairest Jewels,
Purer than the spotless snow,
Which shall linger long as life
holds for us its Joy ard ttrife.
Farewell, darling, for . season,
Farewell for little lime;
TIL with deepest, holy rapture
We behold thy ia divine.
Angel child, smiie ON our way,
TIL the dawning Of hat day.

Anthracite Gas.
Wilkeebarre Leader.

The Disstons, a great Philadelphi,
manufacturing firm, are reported to bt
about to move their works to within q
few miles of Pittsburg. A New Jersey
steel FIRM is also said to be negotiating
for b place in the same vicinity. The
attraction in both cases is the low
price of fuel, the difference between
the cost of natural gas near Pittsburg,
and that OF anthracite coal in Phila,
delphia and New Jersey being more
than enough to cover the presen,
profits of these firms. Perhaps they
have not heard that we can make in
this anthracite region from otherwise
useless culm banks fuel gas which
would cost even less than the Pittsbure
natural gas, and that there is culn
enough already in sight to make more
OF 1t than the biologists say there is Of
natural gas in the Western Pennsyl-
vania deposits. The fact, however, is
important enough to make it advisa
able, both for us and for everybody
that 1t be widely known.

| Jhhe hohhhA's rfsht with snake.
Jake Beiman, an employee on COINS
ranch, Nevada, went up into the hills
to get some cattle, when he encoun-
tered snake. The reptile was close
to a large rock when he found
him, and the rock was flanked by a
log. Beiman noticed large hole at
an angle of the rock and log, for
which the snake made on being sur
prised. Selling large rock he cast it
at the snake, grazing its body. On re-
ceiving the blow 1t turned like light
ming and sprang at its antagonist.
! Beiman stumbled over some bushes,
and the snake coiled about him in an
| instant A piece of wood was close to
the mans hand, and reaching for it he
struck the snake several sharp blows
on the head. The latter turned and
ran his head into the hole, dragging
Beiman close to it,
The man braced his feet against the
snake, but could not extricatc himself,
as the snake had twisted half his body
round his left leg, and as he afterward
said, WAS just squeezing the life out
~ ~. CSAhoh was I'LL HUT
in this predicament, until he finally
thought of his knife, and getting it
out OF his pocket, jabbed it into the
snakes body. After a few cuts the
snake became enraged, and began to
wriggle its head out of the hole. Bel
man saw that his time was short, and
made lively attack on the snakes
neck, severing it. The instant it was
severed the neck. rose convulsively in
the air, and spout of blood came full
IL the frightened mans face. AT this
point he tainted away, and he thinks
he must have remained in that condi-
ton over an hour. When he came to
the snake was still coiled around his
leg, but dead. He brought it home,
and it is now on exhibition at the
ranch. 1t measures ten feet eight
inches without the head.
