The Heptnsophs.

A new charter list is being signed to locate q
conclave at Castle Shannon.
The next meeting Of the General Committee
will be held Thursday. August Z.
The warm season has no apparent effect on
the working conclaves. Their increase con-
tinues.
The National Fraternal Congress will bold Its
next session in Pittsburg on the third Tuesday
of November.
The Executive Committee held daily session
during the past week to complete the pro-
gramme, giving out the printing, etc.
We hope to find not a single Allegheny
county conclave delinquent in seml-annual
reports and payment of per capita tax.
Several conclaves are competing for the prize
offered by Brother M. g. Cohen. Treasurer and
Chairman of the Finance Committee, for An
niversary Day.
The invitations for the L o b. anniversary,
August &, will be ready for distribution about
the close OF the coming week, and will be then
distributed among the conclayes as soon as
possible.
S. A. Kline, ESQ.,, of Greensburg. District
supreme Representative of District No. T. was
in the city during the week, and arranged with
the Supreme Archon and other supreme off,
GERS resident here, to pay with him an official
visit to each conclave in the district during
September. The programme will be announced
in due time.
The Supreme Archon has received full
statement of the disaster which occurred at
Alexandria Bay. on July II, where Brother E.
b. Pemberton and his wife, together with the
wife of Brother Hart, both of Star Conclave of
Bradford, were drowned. The affidavits of
three persons on the Inflated boat accompany
the statement. which was required to ascertain
to whom the endowment of Brother Pemberton
is to be paid. Star Conclave has lost but two
members yet, and both by an accident.

SAVED BY A WOMAN.
She Leaves Her Children in a Storm
to Stop an Express Train
ON THE VERGE OF DISASTER.
The Engineers Eye Caught by Towel
Waved Wildly in the Air.
PURSE RAISED BY THE PASSENGERS

BOSTON, August 2.-The Boston bound
White Mountain express on the Boston and
Maine Railroad was 20 minutes late when
it passed through North Wakefield, N. H.,
about 4:45 P. M. yesterday. A storm of
wind and rain was raging, but despite the
murky atmosphere the heavy train was
rushing onward at high speed in the en-
deayor to make up the lost time.
Hardly had it left the North Wakefield
station when the engineer saw woman on
tie track, frantically waving white cloth.
Evidently there was danger ahead. A push
at the throttle shut off the motive power,
and quick twist of the sirbrake lever was
instantly responded to by a slackening of
speed. The train stopped with the cow
catcher Of the great locomotive almost in
front OF the woman.
whats the matter?"
1.-THE track around the curve is all COW
cred with trees. came to warn you."
Just ahead there was a curve, a sharp
turn, so sharp that, after an obstruction
upon it had come into the engineers view,
no human power could have prevented
calamity. The woman was Mrs. Emily
Branson. From her house near the track
she saw the wind hurl several huge trees
across the rails. She was alone with her
two little children.
"I hated to leave my children alone in the
Storm" said she, "but knew there was
nothing else to be done. So caught up
towel, the first thing that was handy, and
ran up to meet the train. I'm glad I got
here in time"
One may be sure that the passengers, who
crowded around the plucky woman, were
"glad" also, and they had no hesitation in
expressing their thankfulness George o.
jenkins, of Whitman, was on the train,
and Immediately started subscription for
Mrs. Branson. 1t was easy work. Every
body wanted to give something, and to say
something, too. Even the engineer and
conductor asked to be allowed to "chip in"
1t required the use of axes to clear the
track, and some little time elapsed before
the train moved slowly on again. Among
the passengers on the train were Judge B.
w. Harris and Henry Hobart, of East
Bridgewater; Hiram Il. Jenkins, George
o. Jenkins and Charles 81. Edison, of Whit
man, and Emil Brinner. of New York,
friend of Judge Harris. This morning the
money collected, a snug sum, with letter
couched in terms of hearty commendation
and gratitude, was sent to Mrs Branson by
Henry Hobart, who acted as treasurer Of
the fund.

WHAT TEARS ARE MADE OF,

Those of Joy and Grief Are Just the Same
and Are Mostly Water.
Brooklyn Standard.l
The principal element in the composition
of tear, as may readily be supposed, is
water. The other elements are salt, soda,
phosphate of lime, phosphate of soda and
mucus, each in small proportions. A dried
tear seen through a microscope of good,
average power represents peculiar appear
ance. The water, after evaporation, leaves
behind it the saline ingredients, which
amalgamate and form themselves into
heightened cross lines, and look like a num-
ber of minute fish bones. The makeup is
Just the same whether the tears are for ioy
or grief.
The tears are secreted in what are called
the "lachrymal glands" situated over the
eyeball and underneath the lid. The con-
tents of these glands are carried along and
under the inner surface of the eyelids by
means of six or seven very fine channels.
and are discharged little above the carti-
lage supporting tine lid.
The discharge of tears from the lachrynal
glands is not occasional and accidental, as
is commonly supposed, but continuous. 1t
goes on both day and night-though less
abundantly at night-through the "con-
duits," and spreads equally over the surface
of the lids. After serving its purpose the
flow is carried away by two little drains.
