BILL NYE CAN BE PATHETIC.
BEAUTIFUL STORY OF AN UNFINISHED
POEM FROM TIRE PEN OF THE HU~
MORIST

BEAUTIFUL STORY OF AN UNFINISHED
POEM FROM THE PEN OF THE HU-
MoRIsT.
Bill Nye is not a humorist only He
has done literary work Of wider
range. Here is something he wrote
in 1870:
"0nce, lons time ago, ! began to
write poem. 1t was to be perfect
in meter and rhyme and so truthful
in sentiment that thousands of hearts
should throb and thrill to its music.
| began it with high hopes and chris
tened it with the name of child But
the work moved slowly and the lines
seemed very tame, so | returned again
and again to the child model for ip-
spiration and looked into the merry
eyes for help.
So it came to pass that very little
of my time was devoted to the poem
and a great deal to my Zero. No
slave ever live under more limited
monarchy than | under the reign Of .
pair laughing eyes, and no true
loyal subject ever bowed in meeker
submission or blessed his sweet bon,
dage as did, with my neck beneath
the dimpled feet of my conqueror.
Thus the summer came with the
twinkling music of the bobolink, the
misty blue of the June mornings and
the evening concerts of the sleepy
voiced crickets. The long, dreary
days were short to me, tori was un-
der a spell, and the wand q the en-
chanter was a baby's tiny RATHER. So
| still dreamed on Of the poem that
should crown this summer vision with
an ode to my king, the beck Of whose
chubby hands was my law.
But The poem is only BALI finished.
1t was broken of in the middle Of a
sentence, and now it is growing vel
low beneath pair of scarlet and
white stockings, Those summer DAVIS
are locked in frozen aky; the
roses and the IFS are covered by
the drifting snow With the dea.h Of
the year came the time for the waxen
hands to be forever still those hands
that hold my heart>strings in their
eternal stiffness; those hands that
seem to touch me yet and take me
back to that golden summer time
when / was trying to write my poem.

 The ast Congress passed law, admitting sugar free into this coun- try, and we purchase large quanti- ties of beet sugar from Germany. The same law gave the President authority to retaliate against any country by re-imposing duties on their products, which treated us un- fairly. There is no doubt but that the President would have excluded German sugar, by re-imposing du- ties on it in due time, if Germany had not repealed the law, and are now admitting our pork into their country. It is estimated that this will give a market for ten or twelve million dollars worth of our pork, which will be great benefit to our farmers, and a general gain to our country, and improve the financial situation to that extent.

Reminded Him of Busines.-

A man who was not entirely dissoci- ated from the market business, and whose place is not a thousand miles from here, went to the White noun tains with his family to spend his vaca- ton. He chose a hotel that stood on high ground. and was surrounded by forests that breathed perfume through the dry, exhilaradng air. but, strange to say, he was not comfortable, and eventually he began to show signs of illness 'The airs too weak. up here, he said Even his appetite. on which he set great value. subsided, and his thoughts and desires turned cityward so strongly that he took no pleasure in the mountains
 One day he turned faint and fell back into an armchair. His family became alarmed, but a friend hurried out behind the kitchen and presently returned with couple of fish heads that had been cast out some days be- fore and were in high state of pun gency. He placed these under the nose of a sick man, whose eyes opened slowly. while his face widened with an expression of glad wonder. He took 8 few deep inhalations and broke out, ''Therei Therel That's better. That's like home "-Brooklyn Eagle.

what the Famous Litter.sear Read When
 lie Was a Youth In Pinaforss.
 The first books which vividly i'm pressed me were, naturally, fairy tales and chapbooks about Robert Bruce, William Wallace and Rob Roy. At that time these little tracts could be bought for penny apiece. l can still see Bruce and Wallace In full armor, discoursing across burn, and Rob Roy slipping from the soldiers horse into the stream. They did not then awaken a precocious patriotism; a boy of five is more at home in Fsiryiand than in his own country.
 The sudden appearance of the White Cat as a queen. after her head was cut of; the fiendish malice of the Yellow Dwarf; the strange cake of crocodile eggs and millet seed which the mother of the Princess Frutilla made for the Fairy of the Descrt-these things. all fresh and astonishing, but certainly to be credited. are my first memories of romance.
 One story of White Serpent, with a woodcut of that mysterious reptile, l neglected to secure. probably for want of a penny. and l have regretted it ever since One never sees those cheap books now. ''The White Serpent" In spite of all research. remains introu- vable. It was lost chance. and For tune does not forgive.
 Nobody eyer interfered with these. or indeed with any other, studies of ours at that time. so long as they were not prosecuted on Sundays.

How I advanced from the fairy tales to Shakespeare, what stages there were on the way-for there must have been stages-is thing that mem ory cannot recover.
