Priscilla, tske this Christmas card,
And note the scene the artist drew
The clear December heaven starred,
The moon liquescont shining
through,
A lenfiess tree Is standing hero,
A snow-ciad steeple glistens there,
And, looking closer, do appear
Some tiny Cupids poised In air.
A pair Of lovers arm In arm,
eyes,
Her shyness lending added charm,
Though she her love can not disguise--
How deep my rapture would be now,
How rapidly dull time would fly,
II but the charming maid were thou,
The eager, wiuing lover II

That was the chorus one Christmas
night in the big club room in the Gas
thaus zum Schwarzen Barren in the
quaint old German university town of
Jena. The village lids along the banks
of the Saae--where Goethe heard the
willows whisper the song of the Erlko-
nig-among tho vine-clad Saxon hills.
II was up those hills that the duke of
Brunswick made that hopeless, fatal
charge against the legions of Napoleon.
And tho old Black Bear Innp Every
one knows It; 1t was there Luther
stopped when he set out on that famous
Journey to Wittemberg Goethe and
Schiller hobnobbed there over their
wine.
There is jolly crowd gathered there
this Christmas night; students In velvet
jackets or green joppen, wearing high
of all sorts crouching under the tables
or wandering aimlessly about All the
students smoke long pipes and drink
pnlc whcat-becr out of paunch-bellied
mugs. At the head of the table sat a
short young fellow with red hair and
deformed foot. Nature lYd compen-
sated him for these disadvantages by
Saxe-W -Weimar. A tawny wolf hound
crouched between his knees. Every now
and again he treated 1t to draught of
beer. The hound grinned, showing his
long, yellow teeth, and smacked his lips
like o topper.

Silent Majority.
FREMONT, o., June 25.-Mrs Hayes died
this morning ut half past o'clock, after
passing the night quietly. At o'clock
last night she became much worse and
gradually sank untilthe hour OF her death.
At the bedside were the members of the
family, together with Mrs. Mitchell, Of
Columbus, cousin OF Gen. Hayes; Mrs.
Huntington, cousin Of Mrs Hayes; Lucy
Keller, Mrs. A. II. Miller and the ply
sicians, All night long sorowing fam
lily watched around the bedside. Mrs.
Hayes lay motionless, and but for the
faint breathing and the weak iluttering Of
the pulse, there were no signs Of life. The
anxious watchers, waiting only for the in
evltable end, were bowed with grief, and
scarcely word was spoken the long night
through. The physicians kept in the
background and the family was alone with
their loved one. In vain they hoped for
n slight rally that might come before
death so that she could recognize and
speak TO them. As morning dawned the
hold OF life grew weaker and weaker, and
finally the spirit took flight. In voice
choked with grief the physicians an
nounced that the end had come and the
family's long vigil closed in prostration
and grief. Gen. Hayes and his four grown
sons, Burchard, Webb, Rudd and Scott,
were deeply affected, while Fannie Is
