Thourt leaving us dear Frances.
Ne'er sorrow shalt thou know;
Yet, o. well not forget thee.
Though we are still below.
But God saw fit to take again
The lovely gift he gave.
And now they've laid thee In
The cold and silent grave.
Thou'rt like some tender flower,
Cut off in thy young days;
But now art with thy Maker.
And singing endless praise.
Thy loving friends shall mourn thee.
And days of sorrow see;
We know that thou can st not return.
But we may come to thee.
Then farewell, now, dear Frances.
Wen hope to meet again;
And dwell above the bright. blue skies.
Where God and angels reign.

CURIOUS SHIP SIGNALS.
One of Them That Is Derived From
an Old Irish LeCend

OhO OA 11ICttt lIldO
an Old Irish Legend.
The private signals of ships often
create curiosity which cannot always be
satisfied. Each line has some peculiar
mark which is known as the house flag,
and which serves for indentification
where other signals might fail. One of
the most curious of these signals is that
OF the British steamship Dunmore Head,
or Belfast, ireland, now loading at Can
ton TOR that port, says the Baltimore
Sun. 1t is the representation of a
bloody hand on each side of the funnel
and in the center of white diamond in
blue flag flying from the mainmast.
Below the wrist are enlarged marks of
crimson, representing dripping blood.
1t is left hand, as is shown by the
thumb being forward on the port side
and aft on the starboard side Of the
funnel.
The story of the symbol has meaning.
1t is the coat of arms of the province of
Ulster, Ireland, which derived it from
the crest of the ONeils, who were once
the royal family of that Kingdom. The
whole is based upon a tradition which
the crew of the Dunmore Head take
pleasure in relating. Two SONS of the
king of Ulster were foraging i'll Scotland
NllCH tllG uGdGH ul IHGlE ldlHer was
heard. The two agreed to row across
the channel in their primitive canoes,
and the first to touch land was to be king,
to succeed the father. When nearing
the shore one of the brothers was about
to lose the race when he drew his sword,
and placing his left hand on the gun
vale of the boat chopped it off, and pick
ing it up threw it ashore. He became
king, and the bloody shand became the
crest OF the family. In its descent
through ages it has in these utiIitarian
times served to decorate tue funnel of
fleet Of the finest freight steamships
atioat, The Dunmore Head belongs to
the Ulster Steamship company. The
line is better known as the Head line,
as all the vessels are named after head
lands in the maritime counties of Ulster.
They are the Bengore Head, Teelin
Head, InnisShowen Head, Horn Head,
Black Head, Fair Head, White Head,
Dunmore Head. The r amore Head,
now building, is to carry 5000 tons of
cargo. On all these steamships the Of
ficers wear the sanguinary hand on their
caps. The plates and cups and dishes
and table linen are likewise emblazoned
IN fact, the bloody hand of Ulster Is
prominent everywhere.

Some of our American passen-
gers caught the cricket infection,
which, by the way, was all they did
catch. for they were bowled out when
ever they came to bat, and soon gave up
the game in disgust, but few days
later showed their athletic abilities by
capturing three-fourths of the prizes
offered by the passengers for differen
tests of strength and agility. The pas

MANS FIRST DWELLING.

She'll Was the First Human Habi-

Perhaps the Giant ArmadilIo's
Shell Was the First Human Habi-
tatiOn.
Long ago some men travelling in the
low countries OF South America came
upon remarkable dwelling.
Only little one-story habitation,
seven feet by nire, left by its owner
sweet and clear. A cot of one room just
large enough to hold whole family of
little ones, provided they did not need
too much room for running and jump
ing.
Such a beautifully decorated little
dWellingi None but master in the art
could have fashioned the delicately Or
namented roof reaching high above the
vines clinglng about it-and roof
warranted not TO leak during the hard
est rain and sure to last for ages and
ages. There were two entrances to this
primitive mansion, one at the front and
one at the rear, not very large, to be
sure, but large enough for one to crawl
through comfortably; and these en-
frances, ScallOped and cut with prefec-
ton not to be eXvelled, were always open
too, as if waiting for an occupant. And
all to be had rent free! Now, was not
this most remarkable structure for
our travellers to find in the wilderness?
There were unmistakable proofs, too,
says st. Nicholas, of its having been in
habited, and by savages, undoubtedly,
of very ancient day. On examining
the dwelling and remnants OF others (for
the discoyerers found only one perfect
one }, these wise men decided it must
have been at one time the bony cover
ing of some animal of the armadilio
family.
Further research and study convinced
them they had found not only perfect
armor of the glyptodon, the gigantic
armadillo of prehistoric times, but, what
was still more wonderful. that this
armor, abandoned byits original wearer.
had become, probably, the very first
habitation of man.
The only perfect one of these dwell
ings now known to be in existence is
in the possession of the French govern
ment, and is kept in the Jardin des
PlanteS, in Paris.
