The Young Kaiser at Ostend.

The Emperor William has never yet
received a more delicate complimentthan
that paid him by the king of the Belgians,
who vacated the royal chalet at Ostend
in his favor, and allowed the imperial
standard of the Hohenzollerns to replace
for twenty-four hours the national tn
color. At the last moment the projected
military display in the streets and the
presence of the German consuls at the
wharf were abandoned, but the first visit
of the impetuous ruler of Germany to
Belgium created, on the whole, very
favorable impression.
The unwieldy Hohenzollern expert
enced some difficulty in approaching the
landing stage, but King Leopold, who,
like his brother and nephew, had donned
the somewhat unpicturesque uniform of
the Prussian cavalry, lessened the te-
diousness of the wait by conversing with
his guest across the bulwarks in stento-
rian tones. The bluff geniality of the
young kaiser won all hearts, and his
progress through the streets was marked
by an amount of enthusiasm which Bel
GUM is altogether unaccustomed to. The
emperor never fails to make his strong
individuality felt.-London World.

Wild Animals in Texas.

Evolves, coyotes, cats and panthers,"
says The Bracket (Tex.l News, "are
multiplying under the protection of the
barbed wire fence and the apathy of the
state legislators. A few years since
thorough scalp law would have settled
forever the wild animal question in
Texas at small expense. Now it will
cost twice the money, and meantime
stockmen ard farmers have lost many
times the money in calves, colts and
sheep killed. In few years things will
be much worse. A ranchman, G.. A.
Anderson, of Kinney county, has been
compelled to buy a pack of hounds and
turn huntsman to protect his flock from
the increasing ravages Of panthers. The
same thing is happening all over Texas
1t is about time for the state legislature
to give some attention to the matter, or
for the western districts at least to be-
gin to send men of average common
sense to that body"

A Tobacco Halter,

The late Hon. David Dudley, of Presque
Isle, was great tobacco Halter. He
would not sell the weed in his store and
would not allow any one to smoke on his
premises. While Hon. Hannibal Ham
lin was vice president he visited Presque
Isle, and being well acquainted with Mr..
Dudley called on him. The honorable
vice president was smoking cigar when
he entered the shop. Mr.. Dudley, glad
to see him, shook him by the hand and
then said, "Mr. Hamlin, the boys and
men all know that don't allow smoking
in my store, and to be consistent must
ask you to either throw away your cigar
or step out on the platform" All present,
Mr.. Hamlin included, respected him the
more for his manly courage.-Lewiston

The Jews and Jerusalem.


The Jews believe that Palestine win
again come into their hands. They thus
read the promises of the Bible, and there
are thousands of these Jews of Jerusa-
lem who have come here to wait the day
when the Lord will descend to earth and
take his chosen people out of the hands
of the Turks and again build up their
city. Upon the ruins of Solomon's tenn
pie now stands the great mosque OF
Omar, which is to the Mohammedans
the hottest place outside of Mecca.
A great wall of stone surrounds this
temple plateau, and this wall is believed
by antiquarians to have been a part of
the old temple wall. Inside of this wall
Jew can never come, and though it be
the hottest of holy places to him he can
never look upon it. Turks in uniform
guard the gates, and only secured ad-
mission through letter to the sultan's
governor of Jerusalem, who sent me
with guard of Turkish soldiers to go
through.
1t is the custom of the Jews, however,
to go on certain days of every week to
place outside this wall, and there, lean
ing with their heads against the stone,
they wall over the loss of Jerusalem,
and pray God to give back the land to
his chosen people, This is known as the
Jews wailing place, and when 1 visited
it found about fifty men in long gowns,
and like number of Jewish women
with shawls over their heads, weeping
and praying. Many of the men had
white boards, and the curly locks in
front of their ears were of spun silver.
Others had boys with them. Some
were in their prime, and the tears-gen-
uine tears-ran down the faces of all,
and some of them were convulsed with
sobbing as they leaned there and prayed.
The wailing of one old Jewish woman
rings in my ears to this day, and the
whole cut an impression into my mem
DRY that can never be effaced.-Frank

Too Thoughtful.

In tiny seaport village there was in
stalled as postmaster, not long ago, a
man whom everybody had always looked
upon as a quiet, well meaning person,
who minded his own affairs. Whether
his elevation to Office changed his nature,
or only served to develop trait of char
acter which had long been waiting a
chance to display itself, no one knows;
but the fact remains that curiosity, of a
most intense and persistent kind, seemed
to take possession of him from the very
day he assumed his new position.
Nobody could accuse him of holding
letters up to the light to decipher their
contents, or of reading postal cards, be-
cause he was never seen doing such
things; but in what other way he could
have acquired his knowledge of peoples
private affairs it was certainly difficult
to imagine.
A lady in the village was anxious to
have message reach a friend on a GER
tain day by the boat which took the
mail to neighboring town, and hastily
writing a few lines on a postal she
signed simply her initial and slipped the
card with several letters into the box.
The next night when she went for her
mail the postmaster handed her back the
postal.
81 saw, Miss Green" he remarked,
with a bland smile, "that you hadn't
finished that card, having left off with
the first letter of some word, doubtless
an important one. knew you'd slipped
it i'll with your letters by mistake, so
Isaved it for your-Youth's Companion.

rived from France; no preparations naa
been made for their reception, and the
unfortunate strangers were vainly lem
treating aid and seeking information.
Some of them were hopelessly sitting on
their baggage, exhausted by their journey
and annoyed by the curiosity of the
crowd; while to add to their misery
night was coming on, increasing with its
darkness the desolateness of the unknown
land. Kadour looked at the exiles me-
chanically, but he was, on sudden,
seized with strong emotion as he rec
ognized the dress of the old peasants, the
velvet bodices of their wives, and the
women's long hair, of the color of the
ripe harvest. In another minute his for
gotten dreams had become reality, for
he saw before him the soft features and
golden hair of Katel. Yes, there she
stood with old Rupert, her mother, and
all the little children, far away from the
saw1nin on therippling Sauerbach, which
still flowed past the abandoned home.
''Kadourr'
"Katelr'
He turned pale and she blushed
slightly.
In few minutes the exiles' difficulty
was settled. The Kaid's house was large
and the immigrants were welcome to
install themselves therein until their
little portion of land was accorded them.
Quickly the mother gathered up the
bundles and called together her children,
who had begun already to play with the
little natives; pell nell they were all put
in the coufins among the silks and pre-
cious stuffs, and Katel laughed merrily
at finding herself mounted in such grand
style on an Arab mule. Kadour laughed,
too, but less heartily, and with sort of
suppressed delight.
AS night was falling round and the
air growing cool he wrapped his former
nurse in a beautiful striped burnous, one
of the wedding presents, embroidered
with pearls, and with its soft folds fall
ing round her and the fringe glistening
brightly she sat motionless and smiling,
looking like blonde hour escaped from
the harem.
AS Kadour gazed at her thousand
mad projects crossed his mind. He
would break his troth with the Aga's
daughter and marry Katel-none but
Katel for him. And some day they
would be returning together from the
city, all alone in lane of oleanders, she
smiling at him on the mules back, he
holding her bride as at present. Eager
ly, still dreaming, he gave the signal for
the departure of the train, but Katel
stopped him, saying in her soft voice:
"Wait minute. Here comes my
husband"
Katel was married. Poor Kadour!-

During the repast Howells, one of the

have learned beautiful lesson,
Taught by the sweetpease standing there,
Those little clouds of sunset glory
Caught out of time In morning air.
You see their fragrant blossoms 2odding,
Purple, crimson and pale rose blush,
On slender stems too slight to bear them
Without the helping hidden brush.
To its brown arms, so strong and trusty,
The little tendrils cleave and cling.
The vine, unheld, in dust were lying,
A fallen, bruised and fowerless thiI <.
And yet the brush itself was barren,
Unquickened at the summers kiss;
1t bore no scent or sign of blossom,
But now it blooms again like this
think it must forget the sadness
OF its own broken life, and glow
With love for all the warmth and sunshine
That makes the sweetpease bud and blow
1t may seem but dreary failure,
Deadened and storm tossed, dulled with
strife;
But it has helped to bear the blossoms
That crown another, fairer life.

Selling the queen a Tombstone

Mr.. Andrews came pretty near selling
the queen sample of his marble-that
would have been great thing for him.
He was telling me all about it the other
day.
80. R. johnson, the vice consul" said
he, "got me card to the queens draw
ing room in May, and I went to it at
tired in court dress which I hired at a
shop in Bond street. There was an aw-
full crush, but l contrived to get pretty
near the head of the procession by tip

the privy chamber. L bowed and kissed
the queens hand in great shape; told her

with her-that 1 particularly revered
her for her devotion to the memory of
the departed. Ny words seemed to touch
her deeply. She answered that it was
her determination to keep that memory
forever green. In that case,' said I, let
me give you pointer-buy a fifty foot
slab of my verd-antique marblep"
"What did she say to that?' asked.
'She didn't say anything" replied Mr..
Andrews, "but a rude fat man in gilt
lace and a cooked hat told me to keep
moving on around to the left. I'd have
closed sale if it hadn't been for him."

In the Cushine,s Fire Room,

Very few of those who watched the
torpedo boat Gushing as she took her
spins around the harbor, or as she ap-
peared in her cradle in the dry dock, re-
allied how trying is service on board the
little vessel, even in time of peace.
When the Cushing is under way the
temperature in the little engine room
gets up to anywhere from 100 to $50
degs., and in the narrow quarters where
in the twenty-three officers and men are
slowed the thermometer for hours at
time will register 100. But such things
must be when you put 1,700 horse power
machinery into boat of only ninety
tons displacement and the safety valves
are set to blow off at $50. The fire room
of the Gushing when she is making her
highest speed, 31.4 miles an hour, must
give the unfortunate men in it vivid
idea of how salamanders feel.-Boston
