WE AND THE WORLD.


The world is the same the whole world over,
In every country and every cline,
Men love beauty and bees love clover,
And will to the distant end of time.
The world Is the same old world forever,
There's Joy in truth and there's pain in vice
The fruit forbidden we taste and sever
Our hold on the hearts pure paradise.
The worlds to-day is the worlds tomorrow,
And both shall be its yesterday;
Our Joy and grief, our love and sorrow,
Like our fathers thoughts shall pass away.
There's nothing new and there's nothing olden
Each day is born on the dawn's fresh wings
Our hearts have music sweet and golden,
Or discord, just as we touch life's strings.

Live Frog In n Rock.


Many ywell-authenticated stories of the
finding OF live toads and frogs in solid
rock are on record, and that such things
are nossible was demonstrated here on
Thursday afternoon, when a workman
engaged In Varley & Eyerills lime rock
quarry, north OF the city, broke open a
large piece of rock, which had been
blasted out, and a frog hopped out Of a
pocket in the center Of the stone. OF
course, the occurrence created u tre--
iaendous sensation among the work
men, and operations at the quarry were
for the time suspended, and the move.
mcnts of the frog were watched with
great Interest. TIE animal was some
what smaller than the ordinary frog and
was perfectly white. Its eyes were un-
usually large and very brilliant, but the
frog was apparently blind. Where the
mouth should have been there was only
a line, and on the feet there was u dark,
horny substance. MIR. Everill at once
took charge OF the curiosity aud put II
IN tin can, but the frog died yesterday
morning. He brought II downtown and
II was examined with interest by n large
number of people. and II was alterward
presented to the museum, where IL will

dia booth.

Win hbbths
a bit Of Vas,ar history not gcner-
orally known to the public IL the
inct that the woman 'scollcgc, found
ed 10y man, was the thought Of IA
weaker vessel"
MIR. Matthew Nassar had a kIns-
woman who was principal of "A
young ladies seminary In Pough-
kecp-le, Miss Lydia Booth by name,
an estimable and accomplished
woman. When Mr.. Vassar was
considering the ques tion of the final
disposition Of his fortune he
was strongly inclined toward
the establish ment of n hosnitni
which should bo upon the lines of
Guys hospital In London. While
considering this scheme Miss Booth
suggested that u wise plan would be
the foundation Of Il college for
women, to lie to them what Yale
and Harvard were to men.
MIR. 'Nassar was what Is called I'm
the popular phrase IA self-madeI
man. This WAS true of him intel
lectua!ly rs well AS financially. The
deficiencies of his early education he
sought to supply by culture In the
latter yehrs oI his lite, and to n great
extent was successful. Mrs. Vassar,
tho wife OF his youth, did not keen
pace with her husband in this dlret-
ton, and therefore the importance
oil thorough training for yOunp
women which would send them into
the world with thorough mental
equipment appealed TO him with
peculiar force. Miss Booths sug-
gestlon was adopted, and n charter
Tor the incorporation of Vnssar
fciiiale college was granted by the
New York Legislature in 1861.
