MeIrose Abbey.


There is no doubt that Melrcse abbey
is yearly visited by more strangers and
pilgrims from foreign lands than any
other great abbey, castle or palace in
Scotland, not excepting Holyrood palace,

environment and history will have in
terest to many. The vale Of Melrose,
lying in the very heart of the valley Of
the Tweed, Just below the confluence Of
the Gala water, the Yarrow, Etrick
water and the river Tweed, is perhaps
seven miles long.
The Tweed gently curves around it
from Abbotsford on the west to the vi
cinity Of Drygrange on the east, border
ing and intersecting central spaces Of
about a mile in breadth surprisingly
rich in pastures, groves, orchards, ham.

Immediately behind the town, to the
south, rise those weird Mons Tremon-
tium of the Romans, the Eildon hills.
Tradition has it that they once formed
q single cone, which was cleft in three
during an ecstacy Of rage on the part of
Scotland's once famous wizard-a real
character of flesh and blood and authen-
ticated black art power-Sir Michael
Scott. They are noble heights, around
and between which banners of mist are
forever floating, as if still signaling to
the old Roman hosts, the wizards, the
Picts and the Druids they once knew.

Graves in the crimea.

Some interesting results were obtained
from the archaeological explorations car
ried on in the Crimea during last sum-
mer. Professor Vesseloysh found paint
ed human bones in two graves-six skel-
etons in one grave and one in another.
The well known archeologist Professor
Grempler, Of Breslau, who was present
last year at the congress Of archeolo-
gists at Moscow, is of opinion that these
graves belonged to the original inhabi-
tants of the Crimea, the Cimmerians Of
Herodotus. 1t was q usage with them
to lay their dead on elevated spots SO
that the birds might consume the flesh.
When quite bleached they painted the
skeletons with some mineral pigment.
Graves containing such painted skeletons
have been found in Central Asia, but
only in q few instances. Only three such
graves had been previously found in the
Crimea. Professor Grempler proposes to
take the skeletons with him to Paris,
and exhibit them at the congress Of an
thropologists to be held there during the
autumn. Boston Transcript.

A belfast youth. Experiment.

One Of our young men asked his fa-
ther for the horse the other evening to
go to Northport. But the old gentle
man allowed that he and his wife would
go themselves, and soon after did go,
leaving behind mad young man. But
he finally hit upon the idea of harnessing
up the cow This he did into the best
buggy. The COW was very docile until
he tried to drive her. When she felt
the weight of the wagon attached to her
she gave one below full of fright, and
with tail over her back she ran kichng
and plunging through the garden,
tramping the vegetables and knocking
down bean poles, the young man cling
ing on to the seat, bowling for some one
to stop her.
But nothing could stop her. Finally
a stone wall got in her track and she
cleared it in grand shape; but the buggy,
young man and harness were 80 badly
mixed up that a neighbor who came tc
the rescue could not tell one from the
other. The COW has not yet been seen,
but the ruin she left behind will forever
be monument to her wrath. The
buggy was carried to the barn in 9
bushel basket and the young man on 9
stretcher. Belfast (Me.) Age.

Strange Halluoination.

Ralph Blood, of Waterbury, Conn,
q remarkably well read man, is slowly
starving himself to death, the victim OF
singular monomania. Two years ago
he was afflicted with o slight mental
alteration, from which he speedily re-
covered under treatment, but not until
he had attempted to stab himself with a
penknife, inficting a slight wound in
the breast. He thinks this wound has
not healed, and under the direction Of
the spirits, as he believes, he has re-
Trained from eating or drinking for near
ly two weeks in order that he may be
cured. He says he has not suffered from
hunger, but that he would be willing to
give 100000 to take a good drink Of
water. Within this time he has lost
over forty pounds in weight and ap.
pears twenty years older. -Philadelphia

In prccrss If construction at the gun
factory III Watsrvtet is 10-inch gun,
which, when completed. win be one Of
the greatest caliber and most wonderful
In its design ever made in this country.
This huge gun win be built according to
Capt. Crozier's latest design Of wire
winding. Capt. Crozier is located in the
ordnance department at Washington,
and the present gun is the fourth Of its
kind in existence. The work of boring
the gun has been completed. and it will
be placed in the lathe preparatory to
commencing the wire winding.
The square wire to be used will be of
steel, as is also the gun proper, tenth
of an inch in thickness ard will be wound
from the breech to the muzzle the entire
length. To produce the desired work a
dynamo has been placed in the gun fac
tory, which will be utilized to weld the
ends of the wire by electricity. When
completed it is expected that this gun
will throw $50 pound projectile from
twelve to fifteen miles, the greatest dis
tance yet accomplished. The weight Of
the powder charge will be about $50
pounds, and the penetration will be, il
is expected, about twenty-four inches in
armor plate.-Albany Argus.

AM Eleven ron Powder BLAST.

The huge blast of powder at Port Cres-
cent, for which preparation had been SO
long and carefully made, was success
fully fred at $50 o'clock the other after
noon. The day had been very misty,
which prevented the actual movement
of the rock being seen, but the effects
produced are prodigious. The weight Of
the powder used was $4,000 pounds, and
it was disposed in six chambers along a
transverse tunnel seventy-six feet from
the face of the bluff which projects out
at the western side of the harbor. It
was calculated to displace about 65, 900
tons of rock, or $4,000 cubic yards.
The wires formed circuit of 40, 900 feet,
and the shot was touched off by means
of dynamo-electric machine.
The whole population, including many
visitors, retired to a safe distance, and
all doors and windows were left wide
open. The battery was touched off by
Miss Adeline j. Beehler, of Seattle. The
displacement of rock is something over
90, 600 cubic yards, but no estimate can
yet be ascertained, as the rock is cracked
all around within 150 feet.
The blast made an opening of about
1876 feet by rs deep, and was complete
success in every particular. The con-
cussion was very slight, and no damage
to surrounding buildings or other prop
erty was done. Not even pane of glass
was broken. Seattle Post -Intelli-

Two rhanksrIvinrs.

The lights shine out within the castle hall
The sound Of music echoes through thS night
And waxen tapers, clustered on the wall,
Glmmer above the banquet table bright;
For, year by year, fair youth and beauty meet
To Jest and dance TO strains OF music sweet
Through waning hours around the banquet there
They revel in the gay and festal scene;
Yet on those lovely faces, unaware,
Rests oftentime discontented mien:
For ali this life Of ease and pleasures sense
They give no thanks no worthy recompensa
Adown the winding road beside the brook
vine clad cottage stands upon the green;
Full many years within this humble nook
An honest yeoman and his wife have been
A still, sweet hamlet, where the even how
OF winter days and summer como and go
A grassy strip of fruitful garden plot
The narrow limits Of their circle bound;
A life Of toll and labor is their lot,
Yet, year by year, the family gathers round,
And tho one sunny child Is missing, there
The father calmly bows his head in prayer.

Reads Like . Miracle.

Walter G. Scott, a war veteran, lives
in small frame house at Alburtis. Ev-
erybody in that section knew him as a
great sufferer from injuries received in
the artillery service, his nervous system
being shattered, and an incessant shak-
ing of the head was one of the outward
effects. Friday his spasms were un-
usually severe and then ceased alto
gether. Then Scott got up, walked away
perfectly cured and jumped over fence
next day to- prove to the doctors that he
was not shamming. The case puzzles
the local medical world, and the only
thing that worries Scott is the idea that
he may lose the $72 monthly disability
pension allowed by the government

READ THIS TWICEy

The only Protection that will effect
ually protect all people, all classes, all
labor and all interests is that styled
SELF PROTECTION acquired only from
a truthful knowledge of ways and
means, legal and illegal, just and un-
just, by which the burdens of govern
ment, profits of labor and industry, are
SO unequally divided.
That knowledge is power, and ignor-
ance its slave, is forcibly illustrated
daily in all walks of life, among all
people, in all countries.
Where knowledge is used as power
or means for gaining wealth without
labor or an equivalent therefor, it Lc-
comes necessary to deceive or keep in
ignorance of such methods those from
whom the wealth is taken; hence it is
that of the ten thousand newspapers
printed in the United States, less than
ten are absolutely free and independent
of the power or control Of some class,
party or monopoly whose interest it is
to keep the great mass Of people in
| ignorance Of their methods.
The Cincinnati Weekly Enquirer is
one of the few, if not the only one,
absolutely free from such influences.
| It is the most honest, thorough, able
teacher and exponent Of truthful
knowledge, Of reliable data, free from
partisan bias, fair, frank and explicit
to such degree that one cannot but feel
edited and capable Of forming correct
conclusions therefrom. Such a paper
should be in every household. Sample

In all diseases of the nasal mucous

Don-irritating. The medical profession
has been slow to learn this. Nothing
satisfactory can be accomplished with
douches, snuffs, powders or syringes
because they are all irritating, do not
thoroughly reach the affected surfaces

A Hero of q Practical Joke.


A young man of about 25 is just now
the hero of a select circle Of friends in
the southern section of the city, and in
view of his peculiar history he quite de-
serves to be lionized. Five years ago he
was clerk in bank on q meager sal
ary, and one time some of the same de-
voted friends of these days thought it
would be a good joke to pretend the
bank had been robbed, and warn him
that he was suspected. This number
did, only they called him up about mid
night, so as to give the joke a more
natural appearance. After telling him
that two hours before burglars had
stolen $50, 900 in bank notes, they added
that the police were now on the way to
arrest him as a suspect.
1t SO happened that he had but two
hours before been in the vicinity of the
bank, and fearful of not being able to
prove an alibi, he gathered his available
belongings together and caught an early
morning train for the north. Of course
there was big row in the vicinity Of
the young fellows home and his funny
friends had to leave town. Fortunately
the young fellow was bachelor, and he
was not hunted up. Recently he wrote
to an old acquaintance here from Can
ada, and the latter in replying to the
long lost youth told him the truth about
the bank joke. Then the young fellow
came back, but not as he went away.
he rode in a parlor car and swelled
around in hack. He had gone to Mon.
treal and after the first shock had settled
down to work and gradually by lucky
speculation had grown rich.-Philadel
