"Brown, whose hams do you use?'
81 always buy the Lilly put up by the
Los Angeles Cold Storage Company"
"Why do you prefer the Lilly hams ?"
because they are sweeter, and are
smoked in this city. All hams not
branded the Lilly are smoked either at
San Francisco or in the Eastern cities,
and you cannot tell how long they have
been smoked before shipping, and then
they are from ten to fifteen days on the
road; so you see they are quite ancient
by the time they reach Los Angeles,
while the Lilly hams are put on the
market fresh every day."d

mOurnful and pathetic superstitions.
The linnet pours forth the most melan-
choly song OF all Irish birds, and | have
seen honest-hearted peasants affected
by it to tears. On inquiry |
found the secret cause to be the be-
lief that its notes voiced the plants of
some unhappy soul liz the spirit-land.
The changeless and interminable chant of
the yellow bunting is the subject of very
singular superstition. Its notes, begun
each afternoon at the precise hour OF 3,
are regarded as summons to prayer for
souls not Vet relieved from purgatorial
pennance. A variety Of finch has notes
which resemble what is called the Bride
groom's Song" of unutterable dolor for a
lost bride-a legend of superstition easily
traceable to the German Hartz mountain
peasantry, while in the solemn intensity
of the bittern's sad and plaintive boom,
still universally received token OF spirit
warming, can be recognized the origin of
the mournful cries of the wailing banshee.

about six years age" says a CORE

went with a party from Lancaster on
botanizing trip to Fairview, about three
miles above Rohrerstown. After collect
ing the fragrant arbutus and other wild
flowers we returned to the station and
waited for the train. A ragged, barefooted
boy was loafng about the place. Pres
emily a freight train came around the
curve with lightning speed, evidently try
ing to get out of the way of the passenger
train which was soon due. Suddenly
with piercing cry one of the ladies made
arush for the track. Her little four-year-old
girl. left to herself had sauntered on the
track. The engineer. too saw the child,
and quickly reversed his engine, but too
late to stop it. AS soon as the country
boy saw the child's peril he leaped for
ward and seized her in his arms-almost
out of the grinding wheels OF the locomo-
tive. Then he literally threw himself on
the cowcatcher. This was his only chance
OF escape, and grasping coupling-pin he
drew himself up with his burden. Within
a hundred yards the train came to a halt,
and to the amazement of the crowd our
hero stepped off from his dangerous perch
with the little girl in his arms, neither the
worse for their terrible ride. A hand
some purse was collected for the boy

The Song nf the Onnau-

Lord Ronald has castles. has riches and fame.
Lord Ronald can boast Of his lineage and name,
His herds at pleasure DER valley and hill,
Yet he covets the heart Of the maid of the mill
Fifty good knights feast in Lord Ronald's hall,
Fifty good chargers stand saddled IN stall,
Twice Gfty stout yeomen are waiting his will,
Yet he longs for the love of the maid OF the mill.
Ny castle, too, on the mouutan-side stands,
Bat twas not buided by human hands;
|. too, have herds roaming valley and lea,
But they the red deer, Wild and free.
I, too. have vassals as stout and as true
As ever Bonded the outlaEed yew;
As stanoh and as brave in the battle, ween,
As Ronalds, though clad but in plain Lincoln green.
l. too, can boast Of an an cicnt name
That was known and feared ere the Norman came,
Twas one that our own mountain minstrels sing,
As older than that of the robber king.
Who led on his Normans with bucker and brand,
To pillage and plumber our fair Saxon land.
In these. our haunts, we've never need
OF smbling palfrey warlike steed,
We know every path over mountain and moor
We take from the rich, but we give to the poor
Who so blythe and so merry as We
Our home is under the greenwood tree
Where we hold our court and make our laws
For We own no king and we fight for no cause.
Lord Ronald may boast Of his wealth and his pow err
OF vass Is and manor, Of castle and tower,
All these mas he laid at her fair feet, and stiu
His suit is refused by the maid of the mill
Lord Ronald may threaten, but let him take heed
My bow never failed Inc in moment of need,
And tonight when the moon rises over yon hill,

He bore his new honor with apparent
indifference Tor whole day, but was very
unwilling TO take off his beloved trousers
at night.
When he had yielded to persuasion, and
was snugly tucked in bed, he looked up to
say with emphasis: Mamma, please put
away those skirts, and never let me see
them again"
Another lad, who was but little over
four years old when mamma began to talk
about laying aside his skirts, was taken

One day he was unusually restless, and
the nurse was moving about the bed, ex-
erting all her skill to ease his condition.

The child raised his eyes to her face,

PETE WAS RESIGNED.
The Man Who Awaited HIS Execution at
Fort Smith.
Y Sun

There was only one man waiting execu-
ton at Fort Smith when visited the post,
and be was only one Of the ordinary run
of white men in Indian Territory. The
hangman rather wanted to show him of,
and so we paid visit to the guard house.
Upon entering it the executioner said:
Pete, here is a decent white man come
to see you. Do your purtiest, now, to en-
terrain him. You've got two more days
to live, and hope you'll try to work into
decent society as much as possible.
I'm sure Pm glad to see him. re-
sponded Pete as he came forward and
shook hands.
That's good. A born gentleman
couldn't have said them words better. II
l could only keep you six weeks, Pete, you
wouldn't know yourself, and you'd do me
proud. But can't. I've got to hang you
day after tomorrow"
well, I'm ready
That's good, and just what expected
of you. I've used you white, and natur-
ally expect the same in return. If there's
any one thing that rifles me above another
it's to have a man 90 back on me at the
last end. Did you see me hang Cherokee
Jack, Pete?"
Yes"
al made bungle of it because he kicked
at the last. Why, sir turning to me-, he
held up until the very last hour, deluding
me with promises. and then went dead
back on me. Think of his refusing to be
hung after everything vas shipshaPe and
regular.
Pm not going to kick" observed Peter.
Good Tor youi Some of the BOYS are
betting that you will, but I'll give odds
that you won't When a man knows he's
got to be hung, what's the use? People
have got mistaken notion about hanging.

That's right. You hadn't orter killed

A singularly touching tribute has been
paid to the memory of little Bessie Cutter
by her schoolnates at the Prince school.
On the day of BeSsie's death the pupils in
her class requested that her seat might
not be occupied again during the term,
feeling that mo one could fill her place,
and unanimously agreed that flowers
should be placed upon her desk every
dav for the remainder OF the school year.
Yesterday was visitation day." and
Bessie's seat and desk were literally COW
cred with flowers. In the middle Of the
desk stood her photograph, on a bed Of
pansies-her favorite fower-with Cath

completely covering the top, while on the
chair was heaped a profusien of white
flowers of various kindsimbedded in their

The late Peleg W Chandler, who was hard Of

time speakers. Every occasion illustrated his
eloouence, and one demonstrated the quick
ness of his repartee. At one meeting he was
frequently interrupted by BLACKBOARD in the
rear of the hall. who kept shouting: Why
don't you 60 yourself"
For time Mr.. Chambers deafness prevented
him from catching the exact nature Of the in
terruption of which he had been for some time
conscious. At last Mr.. Chandler caught the
words of the diSturber. Then, in the mildest
accents. which emphasized the force of the
words, he said:

A July Memory.

Graceful and tall and branching.
Slender aud green and free,
The oats swing there in the oatfeld
Like the wave OF rhythmic sea;
The elms asleep In the shadows
In grave green silence dream;
A bobwhite whistles across the road.
And the distant vhea;helds CLEAN.
Rosy the wayside meadow,
Flushed with a summer glow.
Sweet with the spicy fragrance,
Where the swestbrier thicketS grow;
And over it all is silence
The silence of shadowy leaves
The silence of happy reverie
That the holy quiet weaves.
Crushing the thorny clusters
Close in a nosegay bright,
] question which is the fairest
To garner the hours delight;
And l choose bud and a blossom
Gay promise, fulhllment sweet,
To whisper of swsying oat6elds
With the wild rose at their feet.

sanguinary disposition of Young America.

gave dinner to some visiting constitu-
ents. One couple brought their three
year-old boy with them. He was sent up
to the nursey TO keep the hosts young
hopeful company. When the country
kid appeared in old-fashioned pinafore,
the officials prodigy clapped his hands in
glee at the rustic apparition and ex-
claimed: where did you find it; where
did it come from? Let's kill it and see it
90 to heaven
