Low hang the cl"uds, like threatening pail.
While now and then large raindrops fall;
The Wild wind whistles through the trees,
Strippad of their leaves by the autumn breeze,
And soughs; the echoes of the distant storm
Sound midst the oak trees rough, gauht form.
The stream, which through the summers day
Pabbled and leaped, child at play,
Now fiercely swollen, rushes down
With headlonP haste and sullen frown,
Bearing upon its foam fecked breast
The signs of turmoil and unrest.
Hark! What was that? plaintive cry,
A figure outlined on the sky,
girlish forml What brings her here,
Far from her home and friends so dear?
See how with straining eyes she peers.
Those eyes so bright now dimmed with tears,
Into the muddy vortex, where
A shapeless mass drifts here and there!
Who does not know what tits to lose
long-loved friend2 What grief ensues,
WHAT orrow, aye what bitter pain.
Wells forth when snaps life's fragile chain!
Anguish like this must surely now
Cause those hot tears which wiring her brow,
AS, standing by the rivers brink.
She sees that loved form rise and sink,
All Heavensl 'Tis gone! Can no one save
Or help2

A Partisan recently chronicled this
true tale of "The Smokers Revenge"
Scene: A railway compartment.
MADAME, do you object to smoking?"
No reply. The question is repeated
with a similar result Thinking the
lady deaf, the male passenger made
pretense of lighting his cigar.
"Do it if you darel" exclaimed
Madame Potin, with an unearthly

And he applied the match.
The lady bounced from the seat, and
snatching the cigar from his lips, threw
it out of the window.
"There is a compartment for smok-
ersl" she hissed.
The gentleman, quite taken back,
thought it best to be quiet, while
secretly bemoaning his lost Havana.
Five minutes silence. Madame Potin
flushed with her triumph. Suddenly
the lady's muff appeared to become
instinct with life, and presently little
poodle put out his head to take breath
of air. The gentleman arose, smilingly
affably, seized the little dog by the tail,
and tenderly dropped it out of the car

NEWS FOR FISHERMEN.

A Clever Contrivance to Begui1s the In
nocent Minnow Into Acting as Bait.
Many time what promised to be a
fine days fishing has been spoiled by a
long and tedious hunt for the proper
kind of bait with which to angle A
pair of boot heels sticking up through
the grass by the side of brook and one
long rumbling growl of profanity issu-
ing seemingly from under the earth is
familiar indication to large number of
people who have "been there" them
selves that some ardent and irritable
fisherman is lying there on his face, try
ing to keep out of sight of the timid
minnows he wants to scoop up out of the
stream at one dash, and then be off.
But the little minnows are in no hurry.
They dart away at the sight of his un-
familiar scoop net and lie under the
farther bank wriggling their little tails
tantalizingly. Now the fisherman
wishes he had taken time by the fore
lock and secured his bait on the day be-
fore he was to start on his expedition.
He reviles his procrastination as the
minutes slip by and the hot sun beats
on his back, and he resolves never to do
it again. But this does not mollify the
minnows in the least, and the scene
generally ends by the angler going off
furious, with only few miserable little
fellows in his can.
An ingenious inventor has come to the
relief of fishermen lately by producing
a minnow trap that is hard to beat.
First of all it is wholly composed of
transparent, colorless glass, and is in
shape much like big cartridge with
pointed bullet in it. 1t is about two
and one-half feet long, and as big
around as mans leg above the knee.
1t is hollow, of course, and what would
be the flat end of a cartridge is punched
in like the bottom of glass bottle. and
there is small round hole in the apex
of the cone thus made. The other and
the pointed nd of the trap is fitted with
little sllulng door. This big glass
cartridge is intended to be set ON its
side in the bottom of a brook where
minnows abound. The cautious ones
soon become accustomed to it, and the
reckless fellows don't see it till they
bump their noses against it Some nice
bait is put inside the trap, and the min
nows soon find their way into it through
the punched in end. The little door at
the other end is shut, of course.
The minnows are unable to find their
way out, because they follow the sides
of the trap, and this leads into the
cul de sac at the fiat end, all around the
bottom of the cone. They are easily
poured ont, however, with the water in
the trap by holding the thing up. pointed
end down, and opening the little slide
door. Wire Is twisted around the out
side of the trap, and forms handle by
which it is conveniently carried, and the
wire also protects the glass from injury.

watch near a salt lick. The best time
for hunting by that means is in hot and
dry weather, for ,nen the deer seem to
need salt more than under any other
conditions Night is the best time for
the game to come out Most licks are
natural, as, for instance, places where
cattle are salted in the mountains. Sui
phur water often contains a small pro-
portion of salt. Sometimes where salt
is placed for cattle year after year the
ground becomes saturated with it. 1t is
usual to make a fire near the lick, SO
that the gunner can see his game, and
the watchers lay in wait near by, so that
the wind will blow toward them. Deer
are not scared at a blaze, because they
see such things in the mountains.
"The common American red deer is the
variety found in West Virginia. The
same kind is also seen in the swamps of
Mississippi and Florida. Now, 1 have
noticed wide difference in the weight
of deer in the extreme South and our
own country, as told by hunters of the
two sections. Senator Hampton in
formed me some time ago that he killed
one in his own section weighing 200
pounds 1 could hardly realize it. 1
found, however, that the deer was
weighed as it stood on its feet That is
the custom farther south, but in my
State we dress the deer, so as to get rid
of all superhuous W light before testing
him on the scale. We do so in order to
attain the greatest convenience in carry
ing the game about.
81 can see, continued the Senator
refectively, "that the number of deer
has been remarkably reduced in the last
10 years even noticed the difference
on my recent hunt 1t is safe to say
that there are not half so many to be
found now as 10 years ago. Civilization
and constant hunting are driving them
out of existence. The means Of ap-
proach to the deer country are now very
improved, and as consequence the
game is being killed off. More or less
timbering has been done also, and in
this way many deer ~haunts have been
broken up. In the white pine region
especially the woods have been thinned
30 much that deer can no longer find
home in them. They have been forced
1ltO tilc " "llu lduSoS, "ulCll AdFo oO iStA
resisted encroachment
"The best places to look for deer now
are thinly populated regions such as
Webster, Nicholas, and Greenbrier coun-
ties in our State. In Pendleton, Hamp-
shire, Hardie, Randolph, and Pocahon-
tas good hunting can still be had. The
mountains abound also in pheasants and
squirrels. The streams were once full
of trout, but there are not so many
row."

A NOTABLE BLIND MAN.
His Remarkable Work In Writing q Sc
entif1c Book.


Living at 66 Union street, Jersey City
Heights, is a blind gentleman who enjoys
the distinction of being one of the fore
most mathematcians in America.
His aptitude for the higher branches
of mathematics amounts to positive
genius, for he has accomplished greater
results in this branch of science than
many of the most distinguished college
professors.
Besides being mathematician of the
first rank. Lewis B. CARL is superior
classical scholar, an excellent theoretical
chemist, and a fair musician. Yet he
has never seen the light of the sun, for
he was born without sight
How it has been possible for man so
handicapped in the race of life to out
strip the majority of his competitors is
wonder. The story of his life fur
nishes remarkable example of perse-
verance and patient industry applied to
the attainment of noble ends Mr..
CARL was born at Whitestone, L. l.,
June Is, 1S43 When he was II years
old he was sent to tine New York Insti-
tute for the Blind at 9th avenue and
34th street. Here he remained seven
years, during which time he showed
such marked inclination for study that
it was resolved to give him thorough
classical education, with the view Of
fitting him for the profession of tutor.
He was sent, therefore, to the Fairfield
Academy at Flushing, L. l., to prepare
himself for college. In 1866 he entered
Columbia, and was graduated from that
university in 1870 Seth Low, now the
president Of the college, graduated first
in the class. The second honors were
awarded to Mr.. CARL.
While in college, the attention of the
blind student was called to the fact that
there was no work in English of recent
date treating on the calculus of varia-
tions Differential calculus was taught
in the higher classes, but the more alb
struse branch of the science was neg
lected for lack of any text books on the
subject. Mr.. CARL set himself to the
task of supplying the deficiency. For
six or seven years he studied every
thing that had been written on the
subject in the French and German
languages. Thus equipped, he entered
upon the more laborious work of COM
position, and after three years of close
application finished his book. 1t ap-
peared in 1881, under the title of "A
Treatise on the Calculus of Variations"
and created profound impression
among mathematicians, both in this
country and abroad Few of the
learned men who praised the work for
its lucidity knew of the difficulties
under which the author had labored.
