Then the brave boy carefully lowered
his precious load down the cistern. The
walls sloped inward as they neared the
bottom, and "Shack" rubbed against
them; but he was not hurt, and reached
the ground in safety.
Rob threw himself fat on the ground

1t struck the frail shanty, and in two
seconds not a board of it was left. Rob

and the darkness and the lightning, and
once even lifted off the ground and
rolled completely over, he felt that if
he could only hold out little longer,
all would be safe. He was fortunately
sheltered little by the mound OF dirt
behind which he lay.
The cloud passed as quickly as it
came, and as the rain began to fall in a
torrent. Rob breathed again as he real
lied that the cyclone had gone by, and
he was unharmed.
He ran to the cistern- The rain was
running into it in great streams, and
''Shack," who was not proof against
every thing, was beginning to cry.
A great fear came over Rob that

pull him up, but his strength was not

THEY MADE A HIT.
How a Company of Mosquitoes Changed
Tragedy Into a Farce.

Tragedy Into a Farce.
''You would not think" said an old
actor, ''that little, festive mosquito
would break up a performance, would
you? Well, such is the fact. You re-
member Ned Buckley, don't you?
Used to be leading man in Boston thea
ter; also with Booth and Barrett.
One rather warm night, before some
sort of holiday, Ned took snap
company out to a town in Western
Massachusetts to do Julius Caesar.
It was not sumptuous performance
by any means, but still it pleased the
audience. Buckley played Caesar, and
did it we'll. If / am not mistaken
Fred Bryton was the Marc Antony. 1t
became so hot before the performance
had fairly begun that the windows in
the rear of the stage were wide open.
1t was not long before the stage was
swarming with mosquitoes, they being
attracted, no doubt, by the strong
light on the stage. Buckley had on a
pair of white tights, and he discovered
at the last moment that there were
several small holes in the legs. So
he got a piece of billiard chalk and
whitened over the tights where they
were burnt.
"Well, the play ran along smoothly
enough until the time came for Marc
Antony to bury Caesar and not praise
him. Poor Julius was lying on the
bier, and just as Marc began the ora
tion he felt the Internal little animals
getting in their work. Buckley said
forever afterward that they were edu-
Gated. They just picked out the Spots
where he had used the chalk. He
stood the agony just as long as he
could; then he began numbering his
tormentors. Several times did Julius
slap his limbs, and every time he slap
ped he grunted with relief He kept
slapping his limbs and grunting all
through the oration, the audience
shouting with laughter all the while.
The audience just about knew the
cause of the trouble, because they were
doing some slaughtering on their own
hook. Buckley stood the agony just
as long as he could, then he gave An
thony tip, and the oration was cut
remarkably short The audience was
tickled immensely, and insisted upon
the actors going before the curtain
several times. The mosquitoes who
made the hit went with them. The
performance was farce for the bal
auce of the evening. Every time that
some body began to act one of the
auditors would begin to laugh and
every body would join in the chorus

WORK AND WIN.

The sweetest cherries, mind you, lad
Grow highest on the tree;
Aud would you win the fairest fruit,
One thing I'll say 10 thee;
1t ia Is not at the clicking gay
Ofani idler's pelf-
You'll have to climb the rugged tree,
And gather for yourself.
'Tis vain to wait the fruit to fall,
Or pelt the tree with stones
You'll have to struggle bravely up,
And risk some broken bones;
You only waste your time below,
And get indifferent pay
If you would reach the ripest fruit,
Just tho your fears away.
'Tis so with every thing in life
That's worth the owning, lad
With learning, wealth and character
The best, the good, and great have had;
They come not at the nod or hest
OF any idle hand
STis only those who bravely toll
May have them at comma d.
II, then, you want the ripest fruit,
Just labor till you win;
But mind thee boy, while up you climb,
Keep heart and hand from sin;
The best and grandest guerdon, lad,
If boughG with wicked wage
No peace and comfort Yields at last,
But curses on your age.

to bury out of good company many
noble words with which Shakespeare

condemnatory letters from their col

great masters have employed GER

ulated thereby to emulate the knowl-
edge possessed by these writers
as to the essential significance of
syllables, and that we may recognize
the skill with which those syllables
have been in former days subordinated
to the highest purposes of thought and
art in literature; but let them spare us
the sight of those discouraging italics,
Obs, just as we begin to glow with

use. The sight of those three con-

speech; it makes us doubt, and while
we doubt inspiration flies away and

CHILD AND MOTHER.

o Mother-My-Love, if you'll give me your
hand
And go where 1 ask you to wander,
will lead you away to beautiful land
The Dreamland that's waiting out yonder
Well walk in sweet-posie garden out there
Where moonlight and starlight are stream

And the flowers and the birds are filling the
air
With the fragrance and music Of dreaming.
There'll be no little, tired-out boy to undress,
No questions of cares to perplex you;
Therell be no little bruises or bumps to caress,
Nor patching Of stockings to vex you.
For I'll rock you away on a silver-dew stream
And sing you asleep when you're weary,
And no one shall know Of our beautiful dream
But you and your own little dearie.
And when am tired TIL nestle my head
In the bosom that's soothed me so often,
And the wide-awake stars shall sing in my
stead
song which our dreaming shall soften
So, Mother-My-Love, let me take your dear
hand
And away through the starlight Wen wan

Away through the mist to the beautiful land
The Dreamland that's waiting out yonder!

his yarn, which was as follows:

pecting over in the southwestern part
Of the State. One day when walking
just ahead of my partner fell down
an old shaft, about twenty feet, Iguesss.

that it had broken leg, and had rolled
up its pants as if to doctor itself and
never rolled them down again. It's

through them and took out some let
ters. The direction on the letters
couldn't be read, but the contents were
intact. Some were TO Dear Jimmie

in Jimmie and Jennie. and sized it up
this way: Here's Jimmie come West
to make raise; here's Jennie staid to
home to wait till he makes it. Here's
Jimmie dead in hole just as he had
made the raise; and here's Jennie won
dering why Jimmie didn't drop her a
line, by gosh. That's the way l sized
it up, and 1 says to Bob after he had
pulled me out and we had looked over
the letters. Bob says l. that's
darned hard luck for Jennie, and put
the letters in my pocket.
when l got time 1 went through
the whole batch. There was picture
of Jennie. Say, boy! Well, lost my
head. l made up my mind that instid
of writin' I'd go back and just break
the news myself and tell her Jimmie
had left her mine She was hand
some as any flower that ever bloomed.
And-well, went back. / expected
that Jennie would cry and there'd be a
scene and she'd flop into my arms,
faintlike, and all that. She looked so
gentle, too, with a lip all a-quiverin'
in the picture, and big eyes with tears
like little lakes.
did she flop? Not much. I went
back to that pesky little town in Illi-

A WIZARDS JOKE.
How Hermann Once Upon a Time Fooled
Greedy Chinaman.

Greedy Chinaman.
Talking of the Chinese play here, :"
said well-known lawyer, II never
had more fun than / did at Chinese
performance in San Francisco several
years ago. went there with Herr
mann, the magician. and several San
Francisco journalists. 1t was in the
Chinese quarter and the performance
was the adjourned act of play that
had been started month before In
the lobby were a lot of Chine Sc ped
dlers selling sweetmeats, oranges and
other fruits. Hermann made a dead
set at the orange man, a thin-faced,
Notwithstanding fellow, who wore a
queue about five feet long. Hermann
bought an orange and cut it open.
With an exclamation of delighted sur
prise, his eyes sparkling and his face
lit up with smiles, he drew five-dol-
lar gold piece out of the pulp and
held it up so that the China
man could see it. The latter's
eyes bulged from their sock
cts and a panied look of dis
appointment crossed his expressionless
face. Herman bought three more
oranges, and from each he drew a
shining flyer. By this time the per-
spiration rolled in beads down the
Chinaman's face, and he looked so sick
felt sorry for him. He gathered up
his stock, muttering to himself, and
when Hermann wanted to buy another
half-Gozen the Chinaman refused tc
sell them.
"'pll give you one dollar for them,'
said Hermann.
The price was only ten cents, but
the Chinaman was tired of giving
away gold pieces.
"'Me no wantee sellee,' he said
shrilly.
"a few minutes later he retired in
to a corner and with the air of con-
spirator began to cut up his oranges.
One after another they went, and his
look of disappointment became darker
and darker as the magic gold pieces
failed to appear. 1t was actually tragic
when the last one was gone, and Herr
mann gave him one dollar to prevent
his committing suicide. IN. Y. Sun,
Haunted houses in China must be
desirable places of residence. The
Tien-Tsin Shihpao reports that not long
ago man named Yang moved into
haunted house which nobody dared
live in, he being ignorant of its char
acter During the first two weeks a
ghost, terrible in appearance. made
himself visible in the night Yang, be-
ing a young man of bravery and hav-
ing learned the professional ways of
tanning devils, did not care for it, One
night, when he saw the spirit nGusual-
ly rampant and he undertook to drive
it out, the devil suddenly became ray
of red light and entered into the ground.
Yang was greatly surprised at this,
and, digging into the ground, found
moro than ten thousand taels of silver

books strapped together. Finally after
an unusually trying experience, he ex-
claimed one day: Il never saw such
a house as this is getting to be. l seem
to be the only one that ever puts things
