THE BLACKSMITH AND THE DAls>

Among the daisies she nestled down,
And ~plucking one tiny bud,
She peeped through her lashes OF hazel brown
AT its beautiful crimson hood.
Then shaking the dew from its bonny head,
She lifted 1t up TO her lips,
And whispered his name with n cheek as red
As the bloom on its fragrant tips
II love, l lover and her voice grew bland
As the breeze from the gentle south;
Il love, | ~lover'-but a strong brown hand
Was laid on her smiling mouth.
you love, you lover" and the brown hand twined
Through the waves OF her sunny hair;
They love, they lover sang the telitale wind,
Through the locks of the whispering pair.
The shy wee daisy was borne away
From the huttering gtrlish breast
And the rough smith smiled as 1t coyly b.
In the crease OF his open vest
AS though It were grazing the loneliest place
In the forge where he gayly toiled;
1t smiled through the smoke with Its sweet round
face,
TIL its leaves were all smeared and soiled
Up went his sledge with n right good will,
Then down with n Il merry clang;
Louder, and louder, and loudee still,
As he whlstled the tunes she sang.
He tossed his crisp locks as he fondly cried:
How happy this toiling will be,
When you, love, are tending our own inEleside,
And waiting. my darling, for mel
Through the lights and shadows OF forty years
Isee you with wrinkled brow;
All, lovelier fart though your face appears
More grave and more thoughtful than now.
l steal to the window, and softly tap,
While you smile In your low rush chair,
In your modest kerchief, your snow white cap,
And your halo of dear gray hair"
A rush OF wind, and the daisy lay
Mid the dust on the smithy floor,
Never to welcome the soft eyed day,
Or the song of the blackhird more.

h wilder case.

The very racoy case of the Territory VS..
Hattie M. Wilder and Robt. f. Reamey
came up before Justice Carroll yesterday
afternoon for preliminary hearing. Wild
err, the complaining witness, told a story
which will materially lessen his wife's
chances for o~btainining a divorce on the
charges made. The case was dismissed
for the reason that the statute did not
apply. af
The entire crowd, to use the polished
language ola Colorado senator, should be
expectorated from the territory. Reamey
was once a good citizen. and Wilder
could be tolerated but for his absurd in
.-fatuatipn of a female unworthy to be the
wife of any honest man..

Animal Life in the Cult Stream.

The surface waters in tho Gulf
Stream TEEN with minute life of all
kinds. There the young of larger
animals exist, microscopic in size, and
adult animals which never grow large
enough to be plainly visible to the
naked eye occur in immense quanti-
ties. BY dragging q fine silk net be-
hind the vessel, these minute forms
are easily taken, and when placed in
glass dishes millions uncounted are
seen swimming backward and forward.
When looked at through microscope
we see young jelly fishes, the young of
baruacles, crabs and shrimps, beside
the adult microscopic species, which
are very abundant. The toothless
whale finds in these his only food.
Rushing through the water, with
mouth wide open. by means of his
whalebone strainers the minute forms
are separated from the water. Swal-
lowing those obtained after a short
period of straining, he repeats the
operation. The abundance of this
kind of life can be judged from the
fact that nearly all kinds of whales
exist exclusively upon these animals,
most of them SO small that they are
not noticed on the surface. Ralph S.
Tarr, in Popular Scionce Monthly.

MET A TERRIBLE FATE.

An Explosion of Natural Gas In Resi-
dence at Davis Switch, Pa, by Which
Woman and Her Three Sons Were
Burned to Death.
BRADFORD, Pa, Oct 12-At Davis Switch,
small village thirteen miles from this
place, the dwelling of Patrick Daily was
burned and his wife. and three sons,
aged IS, II and respectively, were roasted
in the flames. At6 o'clock Thursday night.
while the Daily family were at supper, the
father stepped to the cook-stove
to turn off part of the natural
gas; he unintsntionally shut the throttle
tight and on turning it on again the house
was filed with gas An explosion followed.
and in an instant the entire house was In
flames The three boys and the mother
fell prostrate on the floor overcome by the
heat and flames. Mr. Daily rushed out OF
the house to call assistance, but all efforts
to save the unfortunate inmates were
futile. The house was entirely consumed
in few moments The charred and black
ened bodies of the four victims presented a
sickening sight. Mrs. Daily's limbs were
burned from her body and her intestines
exposed to view. Her flesh was cooked to
the bone. The three sons were not az hor-
ribly burned as the mother but their
blackened bodies could not be identified
until placed side by SIDE The gas pressure
was very strong, the gas pipe running d.
rect from a neighboring oil we'll to the
cooking stove. Mr.. Daily is severely but
not fatally burned about the head and
face, and is almost crazed with grief.

confront the stricken people AS near as
can be estimated 2O0 persons are sick with
the terrible disease and kindred fevers,
while about twenty deaths are traceable to
it's cause during the past month The
cause of the spread of the disease is due,
according to the statement of DIR. Matthews,
local member of the State Board Of Health,
to the debilttated condition of the resi-

forded by the temporary structures that

Growth OF tho Agricultural Experiment
Station Movement.

Growth of the Agricultural Experiment
Station Movement.
The first agricultural experiment
station, according to Prof. w. o. At.
water, Of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, was established
at little German village near Leip-
zig. in 1851. In 1856 there were five,
in 1861 fifteen, in 1866 thirty, and to-
day there are more than one hundred
experiment. stations and kindred insti-
tutions in the different countries of
Europe The movement is extending
to Asia and to South America. The
first agricultural experiment sta
tion in Ameria was established
at Middletown, Conn.,, in the
chemical laboratory, Wesleyan
University, in 1875. Others soon
followed. In 1880 there were four in
operation, and in 1887 some seventeen
in fourteen States. In the latter year
Congress made the enterprise National
by an appropriation of iifteen thousand
dollars per annum to each of the States
and Territories having agricultural
colleges or agricultural departments
of colleges. This has led to increased
activity, SO that there are now forty
six, or, counting branch stations, fifty
seven agricultural experiment stations
in the United States. TO support these
forty-six stations, the National and
State appropriations for the present
year reach about seven hundred and
twenty thousand dollars, and over
three hundred and seventy trained men
are employed. -Arkansaw Traveller
