An Electrical WhirlwInd.

Mr.. Charles F. Hefer's farm on the
Monticello road, about four miles from
this city, twas recently the scene of rather
a remarkable occurrence.
Mr.. Hefer's attention was attracted by
several loud reports, which he likens to
the discharge of gun, at the edge of
some woods bordering his cotton field.
Immediately whirling column of dust
and debris was seen to take circular
course from the woods through the cot
ton field and back to the woods again,
sweeping aloft everything in its path.
A colored man employed in the field
fled for his life, but caught enough of
the force of the whirlwind to blister his
back, so he said.
On examination it was found that all
along the track of the whirling column
the leaves of the cotton had been
scorched as if by fire, but no other dam
age was done. Columbia (S. o. Regis

The New York Sun says: "Delight-
fullest among the humors of the census
is the case of the Minneapolis enumera-
tors who came poaching within the limits
of the rival city of st. Paul, seeking
whom to enumerate. Promptly st. Paul
arrested them. Then st. Paul carried
the war into Minneapolis and seized more
enumerators with their plant. Part of
this consisted of lists of Scandinavian
surnames and forenames, the which, be-
ing compounded after the manner of
drugs, created enumerated citizens of
Minneapolis. st. Paul had no mind to
take any such medicine and shrilled ex-
exceedingly. Then Minneapolis found a
Minneapolis dog enumerated on st.
Paul's list as Carl Baxter colored, and
st. Paul drooped. All the proceedings
are under the patronage of live Business
Mems Associations"

Some Enormous Hammers.

Sightseers in st. Louis, Mo-, always
take lively interest in the monster trip
hammers used in the various large iron
works, which, although as large as any
thing of the kind to be found within the
limits of the United States, are but
pigmies when compared with those used
in the great rolling mills and gun
foundries of Europe. At the Terni
works in Italy there is hammer which
weighs fifty tons. 1t was cast in 1878,
and is said to have taken ninety days to
cool sufficiently to admit of being set in
position. Alexandrovski, Russia, has
one ten tons heavier that was cast in
1874. At the Crenstot works in France
there is one of eighty tons. It was made
in 1877 and sets on an anvil block of 100
tons weight. The Cockerills works In
Belgium have 100-ton hammer, and the
Krupp gun works at Essen, Germany,
have one of $50 tons. The last named
hammer is the largest now used in the
world. Commercial Adpertiser.

Reports of suffering and starvation
come to the Chicago Ne,os from several
fishing colonies on the Newfoundland
coast. Natives have in some instances
been found subsisting on decayed SEALS.
There has been large emigration from
Newfoundland to the Canadian North
west. The troubles of the inhabitants of
the island seem to be augmented by a
conflict over French fishing rights be-
tween the colony and England, their
mother country. The Premier of New
foundland is quoted in recent speech
as advocating open war with England or
else annexation to the United States. As
Newfoundland's war resources are too
insignificant for serious consideration, the
solution offered by annexation would
probably be approved if submitted to a
vote of the people.

Queen yictorIa's Coach Horses.

The eight horses attached to Queen
Victoria's coach used upon state occa-
sions are of the famous Hanoverian breed
big, ,stalwart creams with ghastly wall
eyes; most folk pronounce them splendid
specimens of equine beauty. These horses
are still bred in Hanover, and the sever.
est pains are taken to keep the stock
pure. If at birth the colt is not a pure
cream, or if subsequently it develops
some defect, it is killed. In this way
none but sound and distinct-colored
horses are to be met with in this peculiar
brand. In Hanover, however, all the
horses are not first class; about fifty per
cent. of the horses you see in the streets
are slight and ill-shapen and bony crea-
lures.
The Dutch horses seem to average bet
ter than those of any other nation; they
are of noble size, of distinct color, and
are strong, hardy and intelligent. Nearly
all the horses you see in Holland are
sleek, glossy and handsome. The Dutch
man takes the best care of his horse. If
the weather be inclement he leaves the
horse at home in the warm stable and
bitches up his wife and the family dog to
the plough or to the farm wagon. In
Germany the larger dogs are made to do
service as drawers of small carts; stout
dog, properly broken, will outwork the
average pony. Then, too, while the mas
ter is away the dog guards the property
to which he is attached.-NeW York

DAISY'S FARM.

Daisy was engaged, and her betrothed
was receiving the merry congratulations
of the family, consisting of ber uncle,
her aunt and nearly round dozen OF
cousins.
Wharton Hill, a young lawyer, slowly
winning name and fame in his profession,
was being vigorously haudshaken and
noisily welcomed by the Trucmans when
Ned cried:
"Perhaps you didn't know Daisy was
an helress, Whartona"
''Ned-don't" said Daisy reproach-
fully.

''Her farm, in factl" cried Sue.
eyes; her farm" echoed Ned, coming
to the front once more. ''When you are
tired of the law you can start gentleman
farming upon your country seat"
After they were all gone, having tested
long time on the subject, Wharton was
surprised to see tears in Daisys soft,
brown eyes.
"What is it, darling2" he asked.
"They don't mean to hurt my feel
ings," Daisy said gently, "but they will
jest about my farm, and-and-I don't
like it."
"Then you really own farm2"
'It is not valuable possession, as
you will see when tell you about it.
When l was baby, soon after mamma
died, I was very ill, and the doctors adj
vised my father to send me to the coun-
try for change of air. There was an old
servant of fathers family, who had mar

small farm. Such a farm, Wharton
The house has only three rooms, and
looks as if high wind would utterly de-
molish it; the land is so poor that it is
slow starvation to cultivate it. But it
was all the home Margaret had. You
may judge that she was very glad to re-
ceive the liberal price father paid for
me, and my own mother could not have
given me more loving care. Every year
father came to take me away, and every
year was persuaded to leave me, until l
was eight years old, and marvel of
rugged health and perfect ignorance.
Then was put in boarding school, but
still spent my summer vacations with
old Margaret, and my trunk was always
half filed with comforts for her. Having
no one in the world who claimed kindred
with her-no one else but me to love,
Margaret loved me with her -yhole
heart. Six years ago, after father died
and came here to hive with with Uncle
Tom, Margaret died and left me her
farm. 1t has been joke in the family
ever since. The place is so utterly
valueless that we can neither sell it nor
rent it, and it represents only the love OF
an old woman for her nursling."

After this explanation, Wharton bore
the testing about Daisy's real estate with
perfect good nature and declared his in

THE SONG OF THE SEA.
Their world was world Of enchantment;
A world of luminous light

Their world was a world Of enchantment:
A world of luminous light
Came out with a faring Of carmine,
From all the black spaces of night;
The music of morn was as blithesome
And CHEEKY as music could be;
But all through the dawn and the daybreak
mourned for the song of the sea.
They showed me the marvellous flowers
And fruits of their SUM- beaten lands;
They said, "Here are vine tangled valleys;
Forget ye the barren white sands;
For weariness unto the spirit
The dash of the breakers must be:
So dwell We beside our blue waters;
Forget the sad song of the sea-"
And wrapped me about in the sunlight,
On the marge of dimpling stream,
And there in tangle of lilies,
Iwove me wonderful dream;
And song from my dreamland went float
ing
Far up where the angels must be,
But deep in its under vibrations
heard the sweet song of the sea.
With the dew in his locks all a-glitter,
The Prince of the Daytime lay dead;
For the silver-white lance of the twilight
Smote off the gold crown from his head;
And the Princess of Night came to see him,
Her lights all about him to hang;
And nightingale screened in the thicket
Her song to the slumberer sang.
And the stream from the tangle of lilies
Came winding its way through the sedge;
And silvery nocturne it rippled
Among the tall flags on its edge;
But its babble fain would have given
For the deep-woing sea voices lull,
And the nightingales song would have bar
tered
For desolate cry of gull.
Their world was world of enchantment:
And they laughed with the laughter of
scorn,
When l turned me away from its beauty
In the light of the luminous morn;
But heard a grand voice in the distance
Instantly calling to me,
And rose with a jubilant spirit
And followed the song of the sea-

THE LOOM,

Weaving mans destiny
The ceaseless shuttles fly,
Bearing the thread of fate.
No word at thy command
Can stay the weaver's hand;
He will not pause or wait.
Here aideth cry nor prayer,
Nor passion nor despair
A way of help hath found.
The shuttles through and through
Weave in the pattern true
With threads thyself hast wound.
Thine are spinner's hands,
From thee the loom demands
The threads it's shuttles hold.
In the fresh woven woof
Thy life is put to proof,
Thy purposes unfold.
Be watchful, then, and wise,
For still with thee it lies
To choose what yet will be.
Fill thou the shuttle days
With labor and with praise;
The loom is not for thee.
