Send Down f13."

The Philadelphia Times is responsible
for The following remarkable story:
Out in the far West on one cold night
in january horrible accident occurred.
Snow several feet in depth covered the
ground.
The little town of B was perfectly
quiet and not one of its inhabitants
dreamed Of the scene of disaster that
would soon be witnessed. The small
station house was for the time deserted,
the station master having gone to the
store not far distant. Poll, the station.
masters parrot, sat all alone in the cozy
little station house ever and anon talking
to herself. '' Polly want cracker;
= wise shake of her head she flew to Il
shelf that was just above the telephone,
rang and receiving the answering ring
shouted, A" Send down 49," Then
flying back to her perch she was quietly
sitting there when the master returned
There was no telegraph i'll that part OF
the country, and Poll had often watched
her master talk through the telephone to
the stationmaster at jerome, small
town not many miles distant In about
half an hour the passenger train was due.
When it was nearly time for the train TO
come the station-mastcr thought that he
head the noise of u train i'll each dircc-
ton, but concluding that he was mis-.
taken he did not trouble himself to look
ont. In few minutes the passenger
train passed up, but it did not stop, and
III another moment Il fearful crash was
heard. Snatching up lantern the
station master hurried out. A fearful
scene was before him. The freight train
attached to the engine 113 had come into
! collision with the passenger train
Fifteen passengers and both engineers
were killed and five passengers were in
Jurcd seriously. In Il short time the
whole town was astir. The injured were
cared for and an engine arrived and
pushed the broken cars on 81 sidc-track.
Much excitement prevailed throughout
the town. The people wondered who it
was who had tclephoncd to the station
master at Jerome. They did not solve
the mystery for many long day and
both station-masters very nearly lost their
situations, but as nothing could he proved
against them they were allowed TO re-
main. One evening in Jnnc rs the
station master ut B sat doing in his
chair he was aroused by hearing the tele-
phone ring. Looking up he saw Poll
sitting on the shelf above the telephone
and heard her call ont in her shrll voice
"Send down 49,"
At last the mystery mad been solved.

,eLIGHTED HOPES.

Dark is the season of reaping
Tho flight of the promi,eful years
Denied the sweet solace oi weeping
Ger sorrows too deep for our tears.
Rcaping that ch1lr when We dare not
Even dream of the full ripencd grain:
'Gricving oe; fair hope, that are not,
And joy-bells that ring not again.
Sad is the season nj reaping
When shutldcrS the soul III the blast,
And shadows come steathly crceoin.,
From storm ,hrnuicI Wales of the past,
Before lis the future lies yawnins
With anguish, heart-hunsar AMI pain;
And vainly W. long for the d;,wning
Of days that will come not again.
Drear is the season Of r.nping
When hu,heil are the laugh anil the song:
When harvest hymn echoes are sleeping
The hours are 80 lonely and long,.
The dream-ield of life all deserted,
Then why should the reaper remain
cleaner still seeking, sad hearted,
y love that will live no; again:

Mysterious Wafer Holes.

Scientific inquirers are puzzled by GER
tain mysterious holes in the ledge
on the shore of the Boothbay Land Com
pany's territory i'll Maine. There a.c
three of them, eight inches TO foot in
diameter, and about ten inches deep.
They are bowlcd-shapcd and perfectly
circular. Locally they are ascribed to the
Indians. They are supposed to have
been used for pounding corn, but more
inconvcnient arrangement cannot be i'm
agincd. The sea fills them twice day,
and fresh water constantly tickles into
them. In winter they are entirely frozen
up. Besides, the Indians were too lazy
to take such pains. 1t seems, from the
conformations of the surrounding coun-
try, impossible that there could ever have
been water course there. Their origin
is IL mystery. Two are perfect. One
has cracked side.

Peculiar Counting.

In the Ukraine, Russia, the maiden is
the one that does all the counting. When
she falls in love with q man she goes to
his house and tells him the state of her
feelings. If he reciWocatcs all is well,
and formal marriage is duly arranged
If, however, he is unwilling, she remains
there, hoping to coax him into better
mind. The poor fellow cannot treat her
with the least discourtesy or turn her
out, for her friends would be sure to
avenge the insult His best chances,
therefore, if he is really determined that
he wont, is TO leave his home and stay
away rs long as she is in it. This is GER
tainly peculiar way of turning man
out of house and home. On the Isthmus
OF Darien either sex can do the counting,
with the natural result that almost every
body gets married. There is not the same
chance where the girl has to bidc the
motions of hcsitating or bashful swain.
