A Cyclone Relic on a Car Truck.

Station Master Raser discovered curl
Gus paper in a truck of a sleeping car on
the limited train from the west. He
picked it out and found that it was a
bond and mortgage payable by the West
ern Farm Mortgage Trust company, of
Lawrence, Kan. The principal is $500.
Attached to the mortgage are twelve
coupons for the interest, payable at the
Bank of the Republic at Boston. The Sc
ries is 90, and the number 156. 1t is
duly signed and sealed, and signed by
the president and secretary. The first
interest coupon is payable Aug. 1, 1890.
1t probably is a souvenir of the great
storm in the west, and was blown into
the truck by the wind.-Utica Observer.

The southern life has charm for some,

Vermont in rustic beauty
Becomes noted from her friends.
She's often called young Sicily,
Her grandeur never ends.
Every nook and corner
Displays al tistie skill
From our grand old Mansfield
To smaller knoll and hill.
What can there be around us
From mountain to the sea
That will fill oGr eyes with rapture
Like Gods unrivalled scenery.
Here we need not go affair
Natures beauty to perceive,
Just simply look around us
At the tiny flower and leaf.

And quietude and peaeefulness

Not that she was teeming
With more than Wills around.
But there | find attractions,
My own long native town.
The home of me in childhood.
The loved of me in years.
There learned those lessons
Which guide through life's career.
The lofty mounts seem to clasp her,
Decked in robes of living green,
As if with kindly care protect her
And bid her on their strong arm lean
Now the lads and also lasses
Who lived there in days agone.
No arm to shield them from blast
Are roaming hither and yon.
Each one floating in his canoe
Tossed by the pillows of life,
Some their voyages ended
Now are free from care and strife
But those who like myself remain,
Oft in silent reveries. dream
Der the workings of the past
Making life the brighter seem.
And as long as I'm permitted
To sail in my little bark,
Sweet memories viii oft present themselves
Of quiet old Hyde Park

A Great Chimney.

The great chimney recently built at
Fall River, Mass. which is $40 feet in
height, will be far surpassed by one now
under construction at the imperial foun-

Saxony, which is intended to carry the
noxious gases from the furnaces to such
height as to prevent any inconvenience
to the surrounding country. 1t will be

exile from home was caused by the dis
obedience of his daughter, aged II. She
has lover, a young Englishman. en-

A Russian law Suit

The courts ;-5 Tifis, Russia, have be-

from a professional assassin the sum of

S75 down to kill an enemy, and promised
$75 more when he should receive proof
of the death in the shape of the enemy s
ear. The assassin brought around an
ear and received the S75, with SIS added
for a tip. A few days later the man met
his enemy, alive and entirely whole as

A GOOD SCHEME.

A Plan Tried In Sionx City which
Might Work AdvantageousIy Here.
In connection with the Business Mems
association of Sioux City they have an
auxiliary organization which sets good
example to other progressive cities such
as Rock Island. They have a manufac-
turing commission, which has held a
meeting, given very careful consideration
to suggestion for the organization of a
corporation to promote aud develop light
manufacturing in the city. The idea is
to organize stock company. mostly of
people of moderate means, who would
take small amount of stock, with the
understanding that it should not be as
sessed more than ten per cent year.
This would not be controlled by any set
of boomers, but would represent all the
business interests of the city and people
OF all classes. The object of the associa-
ton would be 10 take hold of small mans
nfacturing concerns desiring to locate in
the city and subscribe the amount of
stock necessary to develope the enter
prises. This would be better than to give
a bonus outright, because it was proposed
to have committee of twenty five to
consider all propositions and accept moth
ing that was not gilt edge.
Then by the Incorporation of money
and enterprise it would be sure to be a
success. The majority of those present
agreed with the proposed plan and 1t will
receive further consideration. and will
probably be adopted.
