THE sTAR-sPANGLED BANNEH

THE sTAR-sPANGLED BANNER.
Q say, can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilght's last
gleaming?-
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the
perilous fight,
Ger the ramparts we watched were so CALAMITY
streaming!
Gave proof or through the night that our flag was
still there;
0 say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
Der the land of the free and the home of the
brave?
On that Shore dimly seen through the mists of the
Where the foes naughty host in dread silence re
What is that which the breeze, DER the towering
AS it itfully blows now conceals, now dlscloses?
Now it catches the CLEAN of the mornings first
beam,
In full glory reflected. now shines on the stream;
Ills the star-spangled banner! q, long may II
Ger the land of the free and the home of the
brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battles confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the
grave;
And the star.spangled banner in triumph dOtl
wave
Ger the land of the free and the home of the
brave!
o, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the wars desola
ton!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-res
cued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved
us a nation.
Then conquer we must. when our cause 1t is just
And this be our motto: SIN God is our trust'i
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall
wave
Ger the land of the free and the home of the
brave, FRANCIS Scott key.

Does the Pitcher Plant Eat Meat?

Notwithstanding the admitted fact that
bits of meat, insects, and other animal sub
stances are more quickly decomposed in the
leaves and other trap-like appendages of the
pitcher plant, sundews. venus fly traps and
various insect eating plants, than they are in
open air, there is body of scientists who
deny that the plants themselves have any
power in capturing the prey that falls in
their nets. DR.. Mostedt is one of these skep-
tics. He favors the idea that the decomposi-
ton of the imprisoned insect is owing to
chemical action simply, and that the effect Is
produced in almost exactly the same way

that they would not adjourn sine die until
the investigation into the election in
Hudson county last fall was concluded

week until Friday and clear the calendar
Then it will aaj jourii to Monday, then tc

There was almost tragedy at No. ia
Essex street, Harrison, yesterday after
noon shortly before three o'clock. James
Kemmitt and his wife, Bridget, live
there. The latter has been several times
before the police court on charges of
drunkenness. Yesterday the house was
full of neighbors, most of whom were
drunk. Mrs. Kemmitt made some re-
mark TO her husband during quarrel,
whereupon he struck her with his fist a
severe blow under the right eye.
This made the woman furious, and
taking cup from the table she threw it
at her husband, striking him over the left
floor unconscious, and medical aid was
Immediately summoned. The sight
of her husband lying on the
floor appeared to make the
half-crazed woman more furious, for she
began TO break the windows and furni-
ture in the rooms. While this was going
on the neighbors, who had been drinking
with the couple, paid very little attention
to the wounded man, but when the in
furiated woman attacked them they sur
rounded her and locked her up in room,
from which she was taken soon after by
Sergeant Eagen and Policeman Kenny,
who lodged her in the police station after
severe struggle.
In the meantime DR. Rothe arrived and
found the man bleeding profusely from a
terrible cash near the left temple, and
also found that one artery had been cut,
barely missing the temple artery, After

wound the unfortunate man was removed
to st. Michael's Hospital, where he is
now lying in very dangerous condition.
