THE sCAREcRoW.
1t was a regular scarecrow man,

1t was regular scarecrow man,
Made on the old and well known plan
A cross of sticks in garb forlorn
That stood on guard in that field of corn.
And, indeed it made the old farmer smile
Is he put it up and whistled the while.
It would look to the crows SO very ferocioua
So truly astounding and atrocous,
That it tckled his fancy to think how they
Would catch glimpse and flutter away.
Well, two black crows sat off on a tree,
And tn. young crow said to the old one: 'See.
Now what is that frightful thing out there7
It's enough any honest crow to search
But the old crew chuckled and then looked wise,
Shook in his feathers and winked his eyes.
Something tickled him, but if twas joke
His voice didn't show it when he spoke,
AS looking down at the younger crow
He said: 'sWhat is its ALL don't you know?
why, that as we wise ones all suppose.
Is the special patron saint of the crows
We watch for his coming every year
To tel when the Feast of the Corn is here.
See how he stands with his arms stretched QUIT
He is calling the crows from all about.
Such kind invitation is most alluring-
So very cordial and reassuringl
think we had better accept, don't your
And down to the field of corn they flew.
Wide Awake.

Art of Gem Cutting.

The art Of cutting gems fingered on in
Constantin ople after the fall of the empire,
but few stones We're cut in western Europe.
Charlemagne used as his seal an antique
gem with the head of Jupiter Serapis;
Pepin lie Brief one with Baccb1ls on it.
In 1866, however, Giovanni Bernardo cut
stones so beautifully for Lorenzo de Medici
that he was called Giovanni dele Carniole
and a contemporary of his was named
Domenicod del Kamet. The Pioklers, Tyrol-
ese artists, settled in Rome in the Eight
zenith century, cut gems so perfectly that
they had to sign them to prevent their
passing as veritable antiques. London

A Queer Fad for a Man.

1t is strange and indeed inexplicable how
some very stern, plain and unpretentious
men cotton to silk underwear. 1t is
generally supposed that women only love
pretty things simply because they are pref
ty, but now and then one comes across g
rnan who seems to have an innate love for
all that is dainty and beautiful. know a
man of 40 who belongs to no clubs, who is
quite Indifferent to society, for whom
neither wine, women nor song have any
attractions, who has neither sister nor
cousin nor even g sweetheart, who yet
spends more than 81, 000a year on his under
wear. He has nightgowns of silk embroid-
cred all over the chest with dainty little
flowers He has others of finest cambria,
on which the lace ruffles at the wrists and
neck alone cost small fortune, and he has
others still fastened all the way down the
front with studs Of great value.
One, for instance, is white China silk
with coral colored dots all it. 1t draws
up around the neck with a coral colored
silken cord, which can be adjusted loosely
or tightly at will, and is fastened all the
way down the front with twenty-four little
studs of real coral. An unfeeling brute of
a man who once beheld this ''confection"
advised the wearer to draw the cord tight
" enough to choke himself to death, and
thus rid the world of pinny who could
wear such garment. And yet the wearer
Is a grave, studious, reserved man, fond of
books, and not bit of dude or dandy.

A Hot Needle for Warts.

l have always had warts on my hands
ever since l was a boy, and have tried a
thousand remedies for them, including all
the charms known to the Oldest darby in
the country. The only thing that would
suppress them even temporarily was red
hot needle Somebody told me :bout it
ten or fifteen years ago, but l ne\sf tried
it for long time, dreading the pain. At
last had big wart on the knuckle of my
left forefnger, where was always knock
ing it against something and keeping it
raw and sore.
determined to try the hot needle. So
had large needle fixed in an awl handle,
heated it red hot in the flame of a lamp,
and thrust it through the big wart at one
punch. The pain was no greater than l
had been enduring from striking the wart
against everything touched, and after the
needle had cooled I took it out. The wart
began to dry up, and in three or four days
picked it off with my thumb nail. Since
then whenever one makes it's appearance
take needle to it, and the remedy never
fails.-1nteryiew in St. Louis Globe-Demo-

THE NEWLY-MApE HUSBAND OF MISS
BUTTERWoRTH DEAD.

The Bride of the Sufferer Spends Sad Night
at the Bedside, and Attends Him at His
Death-A Morning of Hard Suffering.
WASHINGTON, October 30.-Mr. Haugh-
wout Howe, who was recently married to
Miss Mary Butterworth, daughter of Rep
ressntative Butterworth, of Ohio, died to-
day of pneumonia.
After the marriage ceremony yesterday
Mr.. Howe appeared TO be greatly relieved
in mind and to suffer less pain than for some
time previously. Toward evening, how
ever, he grew rapidly worse. Throughout
the night he was delirious, and struggle
succeeded struggle. Every effort was made
by his physician to protect the heart of the
patient and to quiet him. Mr.. Howe's raw
ings increased in violence, and it was even
necessary to make use of hypodermic injec-
tions to quiet the patient
A sad night it was for the young bride.
All through the weary watches she sat by
the sick bed, not retiring or resting for
moment until o'clock this morning, when
she took an hours rest. Later on, as the
morning passed, Mr.. Howe's heart was
found to be jumping at a fearful rate, and
shortly after noon he died. Grouped around
the bedside at the time were the young
bride OF dav, DIR. and Mrs. Boosa, DR..
Magruder and Isaac Boosa.
Mr.. Howe was the son of the late Colonel
Frank e. Howe, OF New York, and was we'll
known both in this city and New York. At
the time Of his death he was dispatch agent
at New York for the State Department. He
had held the positioneof private secretary to
Postmaster James and disbursing officer of
the International American Conference.

A DAYS FESTIVITIES.
Brilliant Reception Given by MIR. and
Mrs. Charles LOckhart
AT THEIR EAST LIBERTY MANSION.
Thursday UphOlds Her Reputation as a
Great Day for Society.
THE USUAL NUMBER OF WEDDINGS

The reception given by Mrs. Charles
Lockhsrt, last evening, was perhaps the
most brilliant OF theseason. The beautiful
mansion presented the appearance of con-
servatory of rare and beautiful plants,
rather than a private residence. The
splendor OF the floral decorations defy de-
scription. Rich tropical plants lined the
halls, and were, in fact, to be found in
every room of the house, while beautiful cut
flowers were scattered about the parlors and
halls, with profusion.
The large mirror in the reception hall was
encircled by an immense wreath of orchids
and American beauty roses, while similar
wreaths were to be found upon the frames OF
the paintings from the hands of the old mas
ters.
The most elaborate decorations were to be
found in the dining hall, being entirely in
pink. The large center piece was of
Duchess OF Albany roses, and in the corners
were cornucopias of pink silk, with Duchess
of Albany roses OF the same tint In the
dining room were u small tables. each pro-
fuselv decorated with pink roses.
Caterer Kuhn, of the East End, served
the banquet and the bill of fare included all
the delicacies of the season, which were
served with the greatest elegance.
The ultra fashion of the city, with all Its
wealth and wit, was present Few were the
delinQuents who sent regrets, and none who
were present had regrets, for pleasure
reirned supreme during the entire evening,
and the hostess has added another to her al
ready long list of social successes.
