The Desecratiokio of Rome.

In order not to wander too far
from the main subject, I will cite one
item only of these annals of destruc-
tion. I will mention what happened
in the valley of the Forum between
1910 and 1919. In less than ten
years. time the men employed by the
contractors of st. Peters to search
for building materials crossed the
Valley ofthe Forum from end to end,
like an appalling meteor, destroying,
dismantling splitting into fragments
burning into lime, the temples, the
arches, the basilicas most famous in
Roman history, in the history of the
Old World. together with the inscrip-
lions which indicated their former
s or design, and the statues and
b~as-reliefs which ornamented them.
In 1910 the podium, steps and pedi-
ment of the temple of Antonius and
Faustina were removed to st. Peters
Or otherwise made use of. Between
1541 and 1915 the same fate befell
the triumphal arch raised in honorof
Augustus after the battle of Actium;
and a portion of the Cloaca Maxima.
In 1916 the temple of Julius Cesar
was levelled to the ground, together
with the Fasti Consulars and Tri-
pmphales engraved on it's marble
basement; in 1547 the temple of Cas-
tor and Pollux was dismantled; in
1549 the temple of Vesta, the temple
OF Augustus, and the shrine of Vor-
tumnus.-Rhdolfo Lanciani.

Much Lost.

A neat proverb advises you to
"Pocket your watch, and watch

"Put money in thy purse" needs an
addition, telling us how to keep the
purse. A Florida paper mentions
one that had a faculty for getting
lost equal to that of any umbrella.
1t contained one hundred dollars,
and was owned by one Cummins,
who dropped it while returning to
New Smyrna from Daytona, He did
not discover his loss until he reached
town, when he Immediately started
back to look for it, but, owing to the
darkness he did not find it, and went
as far as Port Orange.
In the morning he started toward
Daytona, and was fortunate enough
to find the purse lying by the road
side near Sutton's creek. He put it
into his pocket, and on his arrival
in town, discovered that it was once
more gone.
He again started in quest of it, and
was lucky enough to find it near
Roles house. His wife, who accom-
panied him, tied the halter around. it
and tied it to the buggy seat, and
they finally got it home safe.

will even assert that the art Of navi-

they have not even a notion that the
true pilot must pay attention to the

to his art,if he intends to be- really
qualified for the command of a ship,
and they think that to COM

The Rise Of the Black Man.

From the present indications the
colored ace in this country will not
much longer be lacking in numerous
examples Of men who have earned
recognition by their ability, education
and force of character. The election
of a colored student as class orator at
Harvard University has already been
mentioned.
The same thing came near happen
ing recently at Cornell. Professor
Langston. of Virginia, who was MAX
ing speeches in Ohio, surprised the
people Of that state by his GUILTY. ated
oratory and eloquence. Professor W.
S. Scarborough a negro of unmixed
blood, who fills the chair of Greek and
Latin in Wilberforce University, is one
of the finest Greek scholars in this
country. the author Of a Geek textbook
now used in Harvard. Yale and other COL
leges. the translator of many Greek clas-
sizes, and, though less than forty years
old, a recognized authority in Greek lit
erature. He ranks high as an essayist
and lecturer, and has published papers
which have attracted attention on
"Andocides and the Andocidean ora
%tions," the "Eclogues of Virgil" the
Greek Verb" and 'Fatalisman in
Homer and Virgil" Professor Scar
borough was born a slave in Georgia
in 1852. and is a graduate of Oberlin
College, Ohio. He had pursued the
right course to obtain recognition for
his ace and himself, and nobody can
make him believe that the negro is in
capable of progress or that the way is
not open to him If he has the qualities
to win.

Care for In Colt.

Many valuable colts are lost every
year for the want of a little care. Hun
dreds die from lack of condition. As
a rule, II colts are fed literally and
kept growing constantly from birth,
there is not much danger to be feared
from worms. Yet it is always best to
be on the safe side, and use all harm
less e a to prevent any form of
sickness and suffering. Some Ke n
lucky breeders practice mixing a little
copperas with salt and placing it in
boxes where the colts a help them
selves as they like. Two tablespoon
fuls of pulverized copperas TO a pint Of
salt is sufficient. Horses suffering
from worms can be cured in time by
feeding a ~teaspoonful of powdered gen.
tian every night for two or three
weeks. 1t can be mixed with oats or
turned down the throat from q bottle.
Copperas and gentian is an excellent
tonic. Breeders will do we'll to keep
a small quantity on hand. Get the
druggist to put up four ounces each,
compromising it in his mortar so as to
mix it thoroughly. Put the powder in
a small box or wide-mouthed glass
jar, label it, and when needed give to
grown horses a teaspoonful in their
feed at night. A yearling will require
about one-third as much as a grown
animal, and weanlings a much smaller

A WR1TERin the London Telegraph
takes an exception to a statement of
Edwin Arnold concerning the histori-
cal. vessel, the Mayfower, which
brought the pilgrims to Plymouth.
While at Boston Mr.. Arnold made
some pleasant illusions to the pill
grim fathers, and said: "Do you
know that the Mayfower which
brought your ancestors hither went
down in Indian waters off Masulipa-
tum?" The question vas asked un-
der the impression that the Mayhow-
er of the pilgrims was a ship of that
name owned BY the East Indian
company. The English writer finds,
however, that although the COM
pany sailed two ships thus named at
different times, the historical vessel
was not one of them, and holds that
its fate 10 unknown.

Tragedy OF a Closet.

The following strange history has
been whispered abroad concerning
one of the principal dressmakers 81.
Paris, a woman whose taste and
elegance Of design in certain details.
OF feminine costume are well known.
1t appears that there exists in Paris
a law forbidding any house that ems
ploys work-people from forcing them
to work after a stipulated hour,
which is, I think, ten o'clock. The
pressure of orders inevitable to the
exhibition season tempted Madame
X-to break this law. Her work.
rooms were in full tide of operation
one evening, near midnight, when an
ominous summons sounded at the
door, followed by the dreaded man
date: "Open, in the name fthe law"
In an instant the goods and sewing
implements were whisked out Of
sight, tho lights we're extinguished,
the work-women were hidden away
here, there andSseverywhere. One
girl, a delicate little creature, was
hurriedly thrust into a great ward
robe hung with dresses, the door
closed and locked upon her and the
key removed. The visit of inspec-
tion of the police revealed nothing,
and as soon as they had taken their
departure the girls we're released from
their hiding-places. But when the
wardrobe door was unlocked, the
corpse OF the unhappy child who
had been concealed there, fell upon
the floor. She had died of, suffoca-
zion. This story has been hushed
up, not a hint of it appearing in the
Paris papers.-From the Philadel-
phia Telegraph.

A Grave Occupation.

A singular circumstance occurred at
Biddeford, Me-, which reminds one of
the days when people bartered in
beads and wampum. Two men, one
a small, slender person and the other
Of proportions in the neighborhood of
800 pounds, were employed by one OF
the women In that locality to dig a
grave on: her lot. They worked rapid
1y, and ere they were aware, the ex-
~cayation was SO large and deep that
the fat man was unable to get out of
the hole. Amaehine was constructed,
and after quite a struggle the big man
was once more on top. In payment
for their services the woman a short
time after gave each of the two. men
Ave quarts of gray beans-enough to
keep them out Of the ground for quite
a while IL it came to the worst.

Cause Of Collie.

"Colic in our horses, says an Eng
lish veterinarian, lis generally the re-
suit of carelessness or improper feed
ing. The stomach of the horse is
small, and the digestion is limited, and
if the horse is hungry and overfed,
or is allowed to gulp down a big feed,
collie is the result; and If musty hay,
or musty or sour food is used, or if
fresh cut grass wet with dew or rain
is hastily eaten in large quantities,
collie is often the result. The careful,
thoughtful man who feeds his horses
regularly rarely has the collie to con-
tend with. More frequent feeding OF
small feeds is better than too much
feed at once. See the skillful horse
man on the ship with his horses tied
up without exercise. He cuts down
his feed to keep the horses with keen
appetite. A very little overlooking
produces collie" Too much cold water
when the horse is heated and tired is a
fruitful source of collie, as is also too
much green food, which, from its
succulent nature is liable to undergo
fermentation. The remedy is the
same as in man. Quickly give some
thing to relieve the pain, painkiller or
some special collie cure; keep the
animal quiet and warm, and if relief is
not soon had, get the veterinarian.

ocean are peopled by the fiercest
tribes of cannibals now extant. A
Melbourne dispatch records the fate
of an E%nglishman and two native

But as voracious man-eaters this is

It vas this people who devoured the
800 Chinese emigrants wrecked some

who we're confined in a large pen.
were taken out and eaten at the rate
OF three a day, and for 100 days the
natives enjoyed this unusual windfall
before the supply of Cinnamon was
exhausted.

OF clover seed, and the growing Of
clover or other renovating crops, adds
much rapidly to fertility than it
would to leave the land to grow only to
weeds and native plants that will seed
themselves. The rotation OF crops will
for a time render loss Of fertility un-
noticed, If care is taken to alternate
those that require different kinds Of
plant food. BY alternating these with
renovating crops. and feeding a good
deal Of stock. fertility may be pre-
served indefinitely.
