THE ARK AND DOVE.


Beautiful dove from the stranded ark
sent forth on the globe encircllng sea,
Slow fitting over its bellows dark
Meath lowering and gloomy canopy.
On lonely way with a courage grand,
In the meekness and sweet simplicity.
Art seeking redeemed from drowned land
,SOme spot from the terrible deluge free
Thro' the misty air on tremulous wing
No sunbeam as yet to cheer thy breast,
Thou art silently, faithfully laboring
In loves endeavor supremely blest.
Were the tender notes of that mOurnful song
Born when the earth was wrapt in gloom?
Did st see through the waters the silent throng-
Truth, Manhood and Age in their liquid
tomb?
Did st see the innocent infant there.
Lying cold and stiff on the drifting sand"
And the beautiful maidens flowing hair
Convulsive grasped in the rigid hand:
No Bethlehem star on the messureless deep
OF that turbulent, gloomy, shoreless sea;
Did thy weary wing in its pathway keep
Toward the welcome leaf Ofthe olive tree?
But power unseen above thee far,
Directed tiny course oil that desOlate track:
And stronger than sun or beaming star
To the Ark's asylum did lead thee back.

A man named Jos. Fields was lately
sent to the Hospital for the Insane
from Eastern Washington, where
only alteration of intellect seems to be
abnormally developed appetite, and as
the learned doctors were able to trace
the intimate connection supposed to
exist between the stomach and the
brain, they declared him crazy enough
to be provided for from the biggest
purse, that of the general public.
One witness testified that he saw
Fields suck" two and half dozen
raw eggs, eat four loaves OF bread and
drank about a gallon of hot water
in the space of a few minutes, which
he spewed up and ate down four
times in succession and was holding
his hands over his mouth to prevent
the fifth repetition of the scene when
the witness left. 1t is Il fortunate
thing that he can use his food over
and over, or he would soon exhaust
the appropri ton known as the main
tenancc fund.

Pen Picture of the Midnight Sun.

Ien Ilctufe OI Tile MlOnlgnL Sun.
The midnight sun is thus described
in :" A Jubilee Jaunt to Norway"
Imagine yourself on a ship at anchor
looking west or straight in front OF
you. There is broad expanse of sea,
a little to your right hand, behind you
will be the rugged coast, and to your
left, the long narrow ford between the
islands and the mainland that the
steamer has just traversed. You
watch the sun as it slowly sets; the
island and the coasts look like rich
dark purple, and the shadows cast by
the ships mast, etc., grow longer and
longer. After a bit, when the sun
had sunk apparently twelve feet from
the horizon, it stops and seems to re-
main stationary for about twenty
minutes; then the very sea-gulls hide
away, while the air all on a sudden
strikes chilly. Each one has an awed
expectant feeling, and surrounding
even the tourist steamer broods ST.
lence that may be felt. Soon the sun
rises very slowly once again, and the
yellow clouds change with his upris-
ing to even greater beauty, first the
palest primrose and then to blush
pink. The sky, which was just now
rose color, becomes gray, then pale
emerald green, and lastly blue. Rock
after rock stands out, caught by the
SUMS bright rays, and the reign of
day has begun once more.

New Time Schedule.
CHANCES in THE ROUTES OF THE {
Il. & N. CO.'S BOATS.

CHANGES IN THE ROUTES OF THE O.
r. & N. CO.'S BOATS.
A new schedule governing the O. r.
d N. Co.'S steamers went into effect
Monday morning. 1t affords four
round trips daily except Sunday, be-
tween Seattle and Tacoma, and two
rOnnd trips on Sunday. This is one
trip more between the two places than
has ever been offered before. The
schedule benefits down-Sound points
in Il marked degree, as the boat which
formerly left Seattle for Victoria at 1.3O
A. NJ. will now leave at 9:45 A. NJ.
A passenger from Victoria or inter-
mediate points can run through to
Olympia the same day; and Olympia
people having business to transact in
Seattle, will have two hours in the
city. Connections will be made at
Tacoma with all trains for Portland
and the East, affording the best possi-
BILE conditions for trasfer. The North
Pacific will make the through run
from Tacoma to Victoria on Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays, and the
Oympian on Tuesdays, Thursdays
and Saturdays. This will cause the
Oympian to lie over at Victoria on
and the North Pacific at Ia
coma.
The Emma Hayward will make two
round trips daily between Seattle and
Tacoma, and the T. J. Potter one
round trip daily between Olympia and
Seattle.
The first trip from Tacoma will be
made at A. NJ. the arrival at Seattle
being at :15 A. NJ. The first boat from
Seattle to Tacoma will leave l BOA. NJ.

Democratic Moderation.
Chicago News.

1t is doubtful whether the Demo-
Gratis are as deeply chagrined by their
fall from power as one would naturally
expect them to be. Certainly their
present attitude is very different from
that of the defeated Republicans of
four years ago. The hatred which
was then poured out against the Mug
wumps and the Prohibitiouists by the
half frantic followers of Blaine finds a
striking contrast in the mild manner
in which the steady-going Democrats
deplore the fact that many OF their
party in New York saw fit to vote for
Harrison and Hill and thus defeat
Cleveland. 1t may be that their dis
comiitures in the past have turned
them into philosophers. Having lost,
they sit comfortably down to rest and
to console themselves with the thought
that perhaps it was for the best. The
fact is that the Democratic party
knows that it can be useful and pow
erful as an opposition party. During
the quarter of century of Republis
can rule it has learned the part to per-
fection. The Republicans, on the
other hand, have not shone well in the
character that was forced upon them
in 1884. They have been obstruction
lists as well as opponents. Good meas
ures and bad measures originating
with the Democrats have been con-
dcmned indiscriminately. They have
constantly acted on the supposition
that anything coming from the Dem
ocrats must be wrong This has led
to the defeat OF several measures which
would have been OF value to the

soREENs FoR ORCHARDS.

A Great Many Cultlyators Have Found

The recently issued bulletin OF the
Agricultural Experiment Station OF

gives the experience OF large number
Of orchardists ON tho value Of such

have been found 10 them. Prof. l.. III.
Bailey. under whose charge this infor-
nation has been collected, addressed
three hundred circulars 20 leading
fruit growers In New York and Michi-
gan, aud received seventy-five replies.
AS with many other questions, the op-
posing views are controlled by adverse
conditions. We observe that the
opinions Of those who are opposed to
the use OF screens have In nearly all
cases founded their objections from

chards were planted, their double or

ing the orchards 10 greater distance,
preventing fair circulation OF air,
and aifording larger shield for the

shelter OF valleys or the protection Of
hills has not only rendered such screens
unnecessary, but the screens have op-
Grated injuriously as already stated.
But with these exceptions taken into
consideration, the great majority Of
culuvators have found the screens a
positive benefit One finds them 'of

PRINCE AND PAUPER.


Some Leaves From the Career ofa Well
Known spendihrift.
Prince Demetrius Ivanovitsch Won
Chiwa died few days ago in the poor
house at Hamburg. He was once the
petted son Of wealthy family. whose
ancestors were the undisputed rulers
Of the province whence he came After
receiving military education he
founded a house in Paris WHERE, under
the Second Empire. he played an en-
viable and important role. The En-
press Eugene was among the numer-
Gus admirers OF the handsome Prince,
who spent money as lavishly as the
Emperor himself. But the dissolute
life which he began to lead soon
robbed him OF his fortune and reduced
him TO beggary. At first he was par
ticular as TO the rank OF those from
whom he borrowed and chose only
men who were his equals in birth.
The late King Ludwig OF Bavaria
was honOred oftener than any other
rules with "letters for loans,n which
invariably began: Most serene and
mighty cousin" The flattery was
successful in opening the purse OF the
demented monarch during many years
But this source OF income was at last
cut of, and Prince Won Chiwa was
forced to borrow from his interiors,
giving as security the expectation OF a
large sum Of money from the Emperor
OF Russia. The truthlessness of such
statement was soon discovered. com
pelling the unfortunate nobleman TO
resort TO other means TO secure live
lihoOd. Ten years ago he first ap-
peared in the neighborhood OF Ham
burg. The long white bair, the
brilliant eyes. the military bearing and
aristocratic features still enabled him
TO impose upon theinnocent mistresses
Of clearinghouse. His imposition
became so frequent and his acquaint-
anee with the debtor prison walls so
intimate that he was made finally an
inmate OF the poor-house 10 escape
further persecution. There he re-
mained until his death. Berlin Letter.

Nothing has happened to the Queen

alierable fate Of men and women. or
every married couple one must be the
survivor, and IN ono-half Of all such
separations Il Is the stay Of the house

that Is taken away. Such severed
unions. could we look into their his
tory. would for the most part be found
as full OF tender rec Elections and OF
romance OF early love as any that de-
rive more Of splendor. but not more OF
sanctity and nobleness. from their
nearness TO a throne. Thousands OF
women are doomed by one great loss
to a life OF peuury aud privation.
They take up tho struggle, the world
knows nothing OF their sorrows and
God helps them through. It Is use
less TO make comparisons, but public
duty must be held to weigh for som O.
thing in the scale OF private grief.
The Queen has not abandoned
her position. Much TO the salts
faction OF her people she has re-
tained her place on the throne. but she
has combined with a retention OF its
honors aad emoluments the privileges
Of recluse. We have IL on the
authority Of some who hav been her
Ministers that the Queen Is sedulous
IN the discharge of one part OF her
duties. She reeds the diplomatic
dispatches before they are sent
out. she examines the draft OF
every important bill. she lends 70
her advisors the aid Of her large
political experience. and probably
OF her matured opinions or the value
Of the latter her Majesty's published
works do not permit us to entertain
an exaggerated estimate, but IL is one
thing to write book and another to
sit in council The important fact is
that these duties are done in private.
The public know nothing OF them. SO
far as outside observation goes. the
life OF the Queen is one to which an
epithet might be attached which,
though true and not severely condem-
natory. might sound harsh. Enough
TO say that IL does not seem to be in
spired by any keen instinct for the
duties of her position. Parliament is
never opened by the Queen in person.
The Commissioners who appear on her
behalf, were their attire a little more |
modern. would pass very we'll for so
many republican deputies. The |
Queens social duties and state func-
tions are discharged. and admirably |
discharged. by the Prince OF Wales
and her other children. Buckingham |
Palace is seldom tenanted. The year
is spent in periodical transitions from
Windsor TO Osborne and from Osborne /
TO Balmoral The people learn
through the newspapers that the royal
train swept through the country while
they were asleep, and that the blinds
were drawn up at Perth. Only on one
point has her Majesty dispjayad I'M
falling vigilance. Her children have
always been marched at the proper
time 10 the trysting tree. and most
gracious messages have been sent to
Parliament The Queen has never
