ONE OF US TWO.

The day win dawn when one of us shall heaiken
In vain to hear a voice that has grown dumb,
And moons will fade, moons pale and shadows
darken-
While sad eyes watch for feet that i1tet come
One Of us two must some time face exlsteuce
Alone with memories that but sharpen pain,
And these sweet days shall shine back in the
distance
Like dreams of summer dawns in nights of rain
One Of us two, with tortured heart half broken,
Shall read long treasured letters through salt
tears,
Shall kiss with anguished lips each cherished
token
That speaks Of those love crowned delicious
years
One of us two shall find all light, all beauty
All joy on earth tale forever done;
Shall know henceforth that life means only duty
o, Cod o, God have pity on that one.

Most parodies are cheap. They have
not even the merit of satirical purpose.
Once in a while, however, we find one
that is so nonsensical ON its surface and
SO exquisite in its deeper meaning that
il belongs among the American classics.
By the way, we should like to know who
wrote the following verses. Can any
body tell us
He killed the noble Mudjoiiyis,
With the skin he made him mittens,
Made them with the fur side inside;
Made them with the skin side outside;
He, to get the warm side inside,
Put the inside skin side outside;
He 10 get the cold side outside,
Put the warm side fur side inside;
That's why he put the fur side inside,
Why he put the skin side outside,
Why he turned them inside outside.

Paris. It. oyster. and Chickens.

Very curious is the effect of politics
on the consumption of f~ood-curious and
unexpected With us a general election
is thought to lead to the absorption of a
great deal of beer. In France the fever
is led by solids. On a recent Sunday
Paris voted and dined. The statistics Of
the provisions have since been made out,
two articles of consumption having been
selected as typical. The statistician, for
his own reasons, has chosen oysters and
fowls. The patriotic Parisians ate on
that Sunday 21e, 400 kilos of oysters and
20, 1874 kilos of fowl; and a kilo is about
two pounds. They have published the
statistics of the consumption on the pre-
vious Sunday. 1t was a fine day, earlier
in the year and favorable for oyster and
fowl eating. But on that Sunday the
Parisians consumed 100, 900 pounds
weight less of oysters and 5000 pounds
weight less of chickens. 1t seems to be
hungry work voting for or against Bou-
langer.-The Economist.

remarkable story of n murder comes
from Budapest. The murderer was a
nurse and the victim her charge-a baby
2 years old. Both went out together for
an airing, and being absent an unusually
long time, search was made and the girl
found, her clothing wet and soiled. She
explained that while walking with the
child she felt that a petty theft she had
committed would soon be discovered,
and rather than be punished for such a
little thing, she thought she had better
do something that might keep her in
prison all her life. She had been very
happy in prison when there before, she
said, and hoped to spend the rest of her
days there If she threw her masters
child into the river. She bought the
child some cakes and made her laugh by
holding her over the water on the bank
of which she stood. Then suddenly she
dropped the baby, and the current
caught her and carried her off. Before
the child had foated many yards she
saw her sink. The servant did not show
the least repentance, but carefully in
quired whether she was really to be
locked up for life. The mother hoped
that the girl had lost the child, and that
her declarations were untrue; but the
river side was searched with torches, and
the body of the little one found.-Phila-
delphia Ledger.

The Maxwell Land Grant.

KANSAS CRY, Dec. 20.-By sustain
inV the demurrer, Judge Brewer of the
United States court, desided a point in
volving the main issues OF tho famous
Beals land grant case which involves
GO, 900 acres of land in Colorado,
New Mexico and Texas. The title of the
case pending is the Interstate Land COM
pany, also the Maxwell Land Grant COM
pany against Vicente Pucteca and others.
The decision is favorable to Maxwell in
that it holds that the grant to the Inter
state Land company cannot hold for the
reason that the concessions made by
Mexico were never completed. Beals
had no title to any land except what was
set of to him by the Mexican government
as an empresario.
Judge Brewer holds that the Mexican
government limited the quantity of land
to be held by one person to eleven leagues
square; that In Beal's grant there was a
stipulation that 200 families should &C.
cupy, while the Interstate Land company
claims to have the right to the grant by ac-
cesiOn.
