A Vegetable Superstition.

Some weeks since lady purchased
from an old colored woman in the mar
ket some parsley, says the Washington
Star, and then asked the vender to
bring her some roots of the herb next
market day.
Parsley root!" exclaimed the old
woman. ''Parsley root Why, ma am,
I wouldn't give you piece of parsley
root for So"
"Why, not? Is it as dear as all
that ?"
"No, ma'am," was the answer; "but
you can't get me to sell you or give you
any parsley root. Don'tyou know if /
brought you piece there would be a
death in one of our families in less than
a month ?''
A lady who heard the conversation
remarked TO the applicant for the root:
II don't believe in that stuff, and if you
will send to my place I will let you have
all the parsley roots you want" The
applicant for the roots took the lady IS
address and sent for them, and in less
than a month the lady who gave the
parsley roots died. This circumstance
is not calculated to cure the supersti-
ton

Sepple uttered an exclamation of

Uncle Blight was questioned as to the
history of the "asteria," but he could
give no definite information. His mind
was weak, and interrogatories bewil-
dered him. He had bought the stage
jewelry, he said, at the auction of one
Nine. Jurati, an old actress who died a.
few months before he left Sydney. He
had done SO simply because Nine. JuratI
had once acted on the boards with him
self, and he desired to possess a me-
mento of her. That was all he knew
It had beer a rainy day, and there were
few bidders, else he could not have at

had paid for the outfit.

So the star sapphire drifted back
across the ocean to its original owner,
no one knew through what clouds Of
mist and tradition. And Col. Granger
bought it of the Sepples fora sum which
handsomely cleared off their debts and
left surplus to begin the world with
anew.
On Thanksgiving Day they sat down
to a dinner as nearly as possible like
that which Kitty's mother had been
wont to prepare in the old farmhouse
by the sea.
There was genuine turkey, with
chicken pie and cranberry tarts: there
were red apples and gold-edged pump
kin pies, and flaming Autumn leaves to
deck the board; and there was pitcher
of country cider. and plenty of hickory
nuts afterward.

But before the moon rose he crossed
a deeper, darker sea. They found him

eyes closed as if in sleep. And as

IreIand's Political Ambition
From the New York Star.

The other day, in a conversation,
concerning Irish politics, Thomas p
Gill, NJ. P, who has been in this country
for a couple OF weeks, remarked:
81 think that a great many Amer leans
labor entirely under misrepresentation
of Irish feeling with regard to England
1t generally is assumed that the Irish
people desire political separation from
England, but that is not the case at ALL
It is our desire that Ireland be
constituted a State, so to speak, very
like one of the American States; that
she be allowed to elect her own
of affairs that pertain to her as State,
and that she be allowed a voice in the
general government of Great Britain
through representatives elected precise
~ as are the members of Congress in
this country.
ireland does not now ask to
become an independent government
such an idea is not considered. There
is thorough good feeling among the
Irish and English people as a class; the
English workingman sympathizes with
his brother across the Channel, and is
sympathized with in return. There is
no enmity between the people as
people, but only between misgoVerned
Ireland and the class which has misgov-
erned her.
''The great necessity is to secure the
reversal of the policy of repression, and
to establish instead system that will
allow free play to the development of
natural resources under local laws adapt
ed to the natural conditions of Ireland.
"Our manufactures and fisheries
ought to be promoted as we'll as our
agriculture, and an end should be put to
the policy that converts our arabic
lands into pastures and drives our
people away. Ireland is country rich
in natural resources, which at present
are very slightly developed. The coun-
try needs the opportunity to develop
present system of alien ownership and
administration that stunts the growth. !"

A Beer Story Out of the Regular Groove
From the Anaconda Standard.

A Beer Story Out of the Regular Groove.
From the Anaconda Standard.
Everett Paxson, A. Rudolph, Will
Morris and julius Jacobs, brother of
City Treasurer Jacobs, returned from
Yellowstone Park, where they had been
fishing, hunting and loafng for five
weeks. They are bronzed as Indians
and as fruitful in yarns as sailors.
They killed carloads of small game, all
of which were shipped East. AS to
large game, many bears were seen, but
the gang foughtshy ofthem.
julius Jacobs, however, had won
derful adventure with a bear which is
worth recording. On horseback he
rode some distance from the camp and
got away from his companions. Teth-
ering his horse to a tree in the dense
forest, he cast his eagle eye around for
game, when several rods from his
horse he deserted an immense bear
glaring him in the face. Jacobs wasn't
loaded for bear. If he had been it
would have been a simple, ordinary
bear story. The bear wasn't very trou
blesome, but whenever Jacobs started
to retreat Bruin would advance a few
PAGES toward him.
If he advanced toward the bear, the
bear would show his teeth and retreat
few steps. Thus, with considerable
maneuvering, about the same relative
positions were maintained. Jacobs
searched all his pockets for suitable
weapon, and finally found tenpenny
nail. A bright idea seized him, and he
carefully drew the birdshot from his
gun and loaded it up with the tenpen-
ny nail The bear was standing with
his tail against the trunk of a tree.
Jacobs took careful aim, fired. and
nailed the BEARS tail fast to the tree.
The bear was now unable to advance
toward Jacobs, and he retreated in safe
ty to where his horse was tethered.
Arrived at this point, another bril-
liant idea struck Jacobs. He took his
riding whip and returned to the scene
of the adventure. He began faying the
bear with the whip, in spite of the
bears bowls and protests. Finally the
bear was so loosened that the bear
jumped clear out of his skin, and made
his way into the woods with yells of
distress. Jacobs calmly drew the nail
from the tree, slung the skin over his
shoulder, mounted his horse and re-
turned to the camp.
Unfortunately. while the caravan
was crossing the Jefferson River, the
bearskin tumbled off and was lost.
Jacobs, however, still has the tenpenny
nail, and can show It,

A Soldiers Idea OF "Fun."
From the Westchester (Pa.) Record

From the westminster (Pa.) Record.
We have heard different versions of
what constituted fun, but we heard a
new one the other day from an old SOL
der. At Gettysburg, about the time of
Pickett's charge, the relator was sta
toned down toward the edge of the
wheat field, and he was sent out in
charge of a squad to relieve the picket
in copse of woods. Meeting the SER
geant he was about to relieve, he asked
him what his orders were. He was in
formed, and among other things the
pickets were not to fire. why" said
the relieving sergeant, ''they are firing
right now Why don't you stop
them?' sob, well, they are just hav-+
ing little fun in there. The rebels
have got possession of stretch of stone,
wall, and our boys swear they are 60
ing to take it away from them'' Our
informant went in, and soon he and his
men were as deep in the ''fun" as their
predecessors, Notwithstanding their or.
ders not to fire. They kept it up. dodg-
ing behind trees and working around
the woods until they got flank fire,
ran in on the stone wall and captured
it. They had their fun, and accom-.
comrlished their object.

MY THANKSGIVING.
BY SUSAN NJ. DAY.


For all thy gifts to me, my gracious Lord,
My heart outpours its wonted thanks to-day;
But now there comes an unaccustomed word,
Falling from lips unused such words to say:
More than for all thy gifts most rich. most ta1r,
To-day thank Thee for ungranted prayer.
Ungranted prayer cried to Thee for health,
Then lay on bed of pain for untold hours;
Ungranted prayer! prayed to Thee for wealth
For one loved; and still with all his powers
OF thought and will he fights with sordid care;
And yet thank Thee for ungranted prayer!
Thou wouldst not give me health; but then the
Brought an enforced silence in my life
When, freed from its strong restlessness and
strain
felt Thy love, forgotten in the strife.
Stiffness of darkened room! Thou earnest

My lord 1 thank thee for ungranted prayer
Thou hast not given him wealth: not the sue
Which seems his due; bitter to see him passed
Fy men whose courage, strength are so much
But one learns fast through failure oh. SO
All when see him grown so strong to bear,

migrated prayer! With all my beings might
cried to Thee one weary year ago,
To my darlings life; through dark. sad
night,
Until it ceased; oh, wildness of despair!
Oh, desolation of unanswered prayer
And yesterday beside her grave l stood;
The grass, the flowers were blackened by the
cold:
The dreary wind roamed through the leahess
wood;
The world looked very gray, and tired. and

Ithought-my darling knows a kinder air,
And thanked Thee even for that ungranted

Ungranted prayer! The mother draws her
Back from the poisonous flowers, the gaudy
prize,
But fills his hands with roses swees and wild,
With treasures safe his longing satisfies;
So | should fear to pray, ut for Gods care,
Which gives me better gifts than granted

Ungranted prayer least understood OF all
When men not wont to pray bend trembling

Hast thou not heard the universal call

Far distant lands our deeper anguish share.
When cruel death comes mOcking faith in

THE HEARTHSTONE.
Our First Thanksgiving Day.

Children, do you know the story
Of the first Thanksgiving Day,
Founded by our Pilgrim Fathers
In that time so far away?
They had given for religion
Wealth and comfort, yes, and more,
Left their homes, and friends, and kindred,
For bleak and barren shore.
On New England's rugged headlands.
Now where peaceful Plymouth lies,
There they built their rough log cabins,
Meath the cold, forbidding skies.
And too often, cen the bravest
Felt his blood run cold with dread,
Lest the wild and savage red man
Burn the roof about his head.
Want and sickness, death and sorrow,
Met their eyes on every hand,
And before the springtime reached them
They had buried half their band.
But their noble, brave endurance
Was not exercised in vain;
Summer brought them brighter prospects.
Ripening seed and waving grain.
And the patient Pilgrim mothers,
AS the harvest time drew near,
Looked with happy, thankful faces
At the full corn in the ear.
So the governor, William Bradford,
In the gladness of his heart,
To praise God for all his mercies,
Set special day apart.
That was in the Autumn, children,
Sixteen hundred and tW enty- one;
Scarce year from when they landed,
And the colony begun.
And now when in late November,
Our Thanksgiving feast is spread,
It's the same time henored custom
Of those Pilgrims long since dead.
XII.
We shall never know the terrors
That they braved, years, years ago,
But for all their struggles gave US,
We our gratitude can show.
XII.
And the children of New England,
If they feast. or praise, or pray,
Should bless God for those brave Pilgrims,
And their first Thanksgiving Day.

Did Not Need the Car Ticket.
From the Washington Star.

A benevolent lady residing within
sound of st. Aloysius' bells was passing
through Judiciary Square last week
when her attention was attracted to
a wan-looking man sitting on one of the
benches. The vagrant winds blew
through his scanty hair, and like Cassius
he was apparently weary of the world.
The lady's kindly heart went out to this
lone man, and she spoke to him.
Sir, you look tired. Allow me, at
least, to give you car-fare home," ex-
tending nickel to him.
The old man looked quizzically at his
benefactor, then smiled, and quietly
said:
I am very much obliged for your
kindness, but I really won't need it. |
am only waiting here for my carriage"
And just then an elegant coupe drove
up and the object of her charity entered
it and drove away.

Barefooted Scotch Girls.
From the Chicago Times.

Tn the rural parts of Scotland the
young women go barefooted most of the
year. On Sundays these buxom damse.f,
may be seen proceeding to church viii,
their shoes in hand and their stockings,
hung properly over their arms. When
they reach the churchyard they sit
down on the grass and with more ease
hosen and shoon, for it would be re-
garded quite improper to enter the kirk
without these articles of attire properly
disposed.

1000 Piasters Each"
From the Chicago Mail.


When Hamilton Fish became secre-
tary of state he sent out circular re-
questing consuls to comply as far as
possible with the customs and manners
of the manners of the countries to
which they were accredited. The con-
sui at Cairo at that time was Col. George
Butler, nephew of Ben.
Hair bralned young Butler replied to
the circular. He said he had begun to
fit up an Egyptian establishment. He
also said he had drawn, to cover the cx-
ira expense, on the United States gov
eminent.
A more wonderful communication
never shocked a decorous secretary of
state. Among other items was one for
six Circassian girls, 1000 piasters each
nine ditto Nubian.
Buffers harem bill was paid, and
nothing was said about it, It was too
rich to talk about.
