Love After Death.

They say if our beloved dead
Should seek the old familiar place,
Some stranger would be there instead
And they would find no welcome face.
can not tell how that may be
In other homes, but this know,
Gould my darling come to me,
That she would never find it so.
Outlines the flowers have come and gone,
Outlines the winter winds have blown,
The while here peaceful rest went on,
And have learned to live alone
Have slowly learned from day to day
In all life's tasks to bear my part;
But, whether grave or whether gay,
hide her memory in my heart.
Fond, faithful love has blessed my way,
And friends are round me, true and tried;
They have their place. but hers to-day
Is empty as the day she died.
How would spring with bated breath,
And Joy too deep for word or sign,
To take my darling home from death
And once again to call her mine.
1 dare not dream the blissful dream;
It fills my heart with wild unrest.
Where yonder cold, white marble CLEANS
She still must slumber. God knows best
But this know, that those who say
our best beloved would find no place,
Have never hungered every day
Through years and years for one sweet
face

Farming is business whose chief
purpose must always be profit. Neces-
sary as his work is, the farmer cannot
be called public benefactor il he does
not make his farm success. IL is no
advantage for the public that he works
hard for poor pay. or that he as rule
produces crops at so great cost that he
cannot sell them without loss. That is,
or may be, form of philanthropy but
il is difficult TO make it work other
than injury, both to the farmer himself
and to the world. II it is continued
long enough and on an extended scale
the farmer loses his property, and be-
comes in the end unable to support him.

This is the fallacy that occasionally
imposes on wealthy men, who spend
money freely, playing at farming, little
caring whether or not their money pro-
duces profitable results. 1t is with
them sort OF extravaganza that ordin.
airy farmers cannot initiate, and usually
docs more injury than good in the
neighborhood In which it is practised.
There may be an apparent advantage
in the introduction of improved stock
which ordinary farmers have not the
capital or pluck to purchase. But this
is more than offset by the general be
lief among the farmers that this is 9
style OF farming that they have no bust
ness to initiate. To be real and sub
stantial gain 1t must be made by work

along depends more on good Judgment
in beginning right, rather than on any
thing else. Many farmers have been
ruined by desire TO excel in fine houses,
carriages and snowy horses for pleas
ure driving, none of which help any
thing towards making the land more
productive. When a farmer has begun
wrong it is almost impossible for him
to regain the safe track. Let him be-
gin with OUTLAWS that return their cost
in one or two crops, and if he does not
thereby exhaust his soil, he is in little
danger Of being cramped for money.

life work in undertaking. this com

There are more risks about fine stock,
which may die or become disabled and

should allow any year TO go by without,

of his live stock. Good animals pay a
profit, while poor ones often cost more

A WOMAN CRUSHED TO DEATH.
Shocking Scene at the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Station.

About 1880 o'clock this morning the people
in the Baltimore and Ohio railroad station were
startled by shrek, followed by the crashing
Of cars as they coupled together. The shrek
came from Mrs. Priscilla DeKraft who had
been caught between the cars. The engine
was started as soon as possible, and when the
bewildered few who had witnessed the catas-
trophe hurried forward to lift her from be-
tween the cars they found that she had been
killed. 1t appears that she was taking short
cut between the uncoupled cars and was caught
as they came together.
Deceased was a night car cleaner and had
been in the employ Of the company upward of
years OF age and q widow. Her husband was
the man who fatally stabbed Bennett in Jack
son alley in 1872, for which he was sent to the
penitentiary for eight years, where he died
several years ago: Her body was removed to
the morgue and the coroner was summoned
She leaves one grown son. in the employ of the

known as the morgue, in the rear of the sixth
precinct station, this afternoon lies the lifeless
body Of the unfortunate woman. Her only son
was at the morgue and was almost frantic
But few hours before he had seen his aged
mother leave home and go to the depot In good
health and spirits and now he was gazing on
her hfeless body.
Undertaken Cannon was ready to take charge
OF the remains. but as a coroner had not ar
rived the remains could not be removed Mrs
De Kraft was sixty-two years old and has had
trouble all her life. She was the mother of
five children and only one Of them is now liv-
ing. She was a member Of the Baltimore and
Ohio relief association and her life was in
sured for $500.
After the coroner takes action the body will
be removed to her late home, No. 9l3 LIST street
northeast
AN INQUEST TO BE HELD TOMORROW.
Coroner Patterson viewed the remains this
afternoon and will investigate the case tomor-
row. The body was turned over to the son of
the deceased.
