The Daily Panor.

The Chicago paper which has been inter-
viewing prominent people as to how daily
newspaper should be managed has produced
sort of composite photograph of daily pa
per. In other words, each person interview
ed stated that he would exclude all matter
which did not interest him. The result, says
a writer in America, is that paper pro-
duced to please all the people interviewed
would somewhat resemble the average daily,
as it would comprise various features. The
fault with our papers lies not 50 much with
the publishers as with the readers. If the
majority Of the readers desire a moral and
instructive newspaper they can have it by
bestowing their patronage upon such a sheet.
But one Of the gentlemen interviewed made
a thoroughly sensible reply. He was bank
er, and when asked what policy he would
pursue were he managing editor of a great
daily newspaper, he replied that he would re-
sign at once and let somebody who knew
something about the business manage it.

Eagles Fish for Trout.

A curious story comes from Clear1eld
county, Pa. Mosquito creek flows through q
wooded part Of that county, and the stream
is as full Of trout as the dense forest is alive
with various kinds of birds. The eagles find
peaceful home there, and they are plenty,
too. Some time ago party Of lumbermen
bethought themselves that it would be good
scheme to catch the trout that inhabit Mos
quito creek. They could not spare the time
to fish with rod and line, and Franklin Hav-
erstraw, the inventive genius Of the camp,
suggested the idea of tying lines to bot
ties The next day the creek was full of bot
ties with lines on them. They had good luck
for awhile until the bottles began to disap-
pear. To solve the mystery watch was put
upon the fishing tackle, and Haverstraw and
Chris Moore went on guard. A day passed,
but the bottles were undisturbed, and good
mess Of fish was caught However, the two
men saw several eagles perched high in the
tree tops looking suspiciously into the water
below. Then they would soar around and
fly close to the creek, quickly going to the
highest limb of the tallest tree when they saw
the men.
This singular action of the birds set Haver-
straw to thinking, and when he told his part
ner that it was his belief that the bottles were
carried of by the eagles Moore secuted the
idea. Haverstraw was firm in his conviction
and the next day the two men hid themselves
among the leaves. At o'clock in the morn
ing three large birds came in sight. They
sat on tree for an hour. Then, feeling sure
that they were unobserved, they made a de-
scent, and each caught bottle in its claws
and carried it to the bank. Each line had a
fine trout on it, which the eagles proceeded
to devour The men were dumfounded For
the first time in their lives they saw an eagle
eating a fish. Haverstraw and Moore re-
manned in their hiding place. To their sur
prise the birds made another trip to the river
Only one line had fish ON it, but the other
two birds carried the bottles and lines to the
shore Before they could devour the one fish
Haverstraw and Moore appeared on the
scene and the birds few off, The grounds
were then searched, and many of the missing
bottles and lines were found. To shoot the
eagles was the next measure adopted, and on
the fourth day two of the birds were killed.
The third few away and was not seen again.

DR.. Talmage's Early Home.

DIR. Talmage's Early Home.
My mind also runs back to one of the best
Of early homes. Prayer like a roof over it.
Peace, like an atmosphere in it. Parents
personifcations of faith in trial and comfort
in darkness. The two pillars of that earthly
home long ago crumbled into dust. But
shall ever forget that early home? Yes,
when the flower forgets the sun that warmed
it. Yes. when the mariner forgets the star
that guided him. Yes, when love has gone
out on the hearts altar, and memory has
emptied its urn into forgetfulness. Then the
homo of my childhood, I will forget thee;
the family altar of a fathers Importantly
and mothers tenderness, the voices of affec-
ton, the funerals of our dead, father and
mother with interlocked arms like intertwin-
ing branches Of trees making paternal
arbor of peace and kindness-then l will
forget thee-then, and then only.
Gates of pearl, capstones of amethysts,
thrones of dominion do not stir my soul so
much as the thought of home. Once there,
let earthly sorrows howl like storms and roll
like SEAS Homel Let thrones rot and en-
pires wither. Homel Let the world die in
earthquakes struggle and be buried amid pro-
cession of planets and dirge of atmosphere.
Homel Let everlasting ages roll in irresist-
ible sweep. Home! No sorrow. No crying.
No tears. No death. But home, sweet home,
beautiful home, everlasting home, home with
each other, homo with angels, home with
God.-Rev. T. De Witt Talmage in Ladies'
Home Journal.

In the Streets of Trinoli.

In the variegated crowd filling the streets
scores of types may be distinguished: Arabs
of the town, draped in their blankets like
Romans in their togas, and, in fact, the
"jaram" is the direct descendant of the toga
and, judging from its looks, seems to have re-
tanned all the dirt of those intervening cen
turies; others, whose costume consists simply
of a flowing robe, generally white, or, to be
precise, which was once whitel Sometimes
this robe is of silk of vivid hue, and the effect
of that gay note in bit of street is like a
-Noppy in wheat-feld.
Bedouins, whose limbs, wiry and strongly
muscled, shine a superb bronze color through
their scanty coverings, elbow Jews in ridicu-
lous costumes, half native and half European.
In a few moments one has met with an inf
mite variety Of negroes, from the pure type,
almost without nose and with enormous jaw
bones and huge lips to those whose ineaments
are absolutely Caucasian.
Porters, in simple tunics corded about the
waist, carry heavy swinging bales on long
poles resting on their shoulders, cheering
their progress the while with an invocation
to Allah and his innumerable prophets, chant
ed by an old man and repeated by the chorus;
true song Of savages, bursting forth like a
fanfare of trumpets. Yelled women, volum-
inously wrapped, pass by like ambling bun
dies of clothes
Officers by scores, those of the new school
stiff but neat, trying to resemble their Ger

times on her fore legs It was the most

seemed to catch him by the horns. There
was struggle, cloud Of dust, a stamping
like two strong men wrestling. I could not
see clearly, but the next moment the bull
was on his back, with the blood yelling from
his throat and the limbs quivering in DEATH
The stranger, covered with dust and blood,
came up to me then, saying, apparently as
unconscious of triumph as ii he had been
killing a calf in a slaughter house: "He,s
dead enough now, sir; he won't trouble any
body any more" I walked two or three
