The majority Of Swedish towns are
still built of wood; but some few there
are which, owing to the destruction Of
the old houses by fire, have been re-
built in more substantial manner. In
the breadth Of the streets Of these new
towns and in some other matters the
Swedish architects have set an example
which might with advantage be fol-
lowed by more southern peoples. One
cannot but regret the destruction of the
old wooden houses with their strange
gables and quaint little windows; but
what the antiquary has lost the people
have no doubt gained in improved sani-
tation and such like things.-Chambers'

A WONDER.

Ehe Is college graduate Packed In her little
Are all the living languages and many that are
dead;
GhS thinks her thoughts In Latin and she whis-
ties In high Greek.
While with q Chinese washes man she easily
can speak.
The whole array OF sciences are at her finger
tips,
And problems mathematical Just bubbles from
her lips;
whsue'er she talks her hearers try their hard
est TO look wise
But, TO conceal their Ignorance, they venture
no replies
Not emily Is her learning FAR ahead Of any
dream.
But she in college tennis was the captain Of .
team:
And In the college races on the lake and on the
land.
Was always crowned the victor. to the music
Of the band.
4 dainty pair of glasses on her dainty little
nose
Adds to her look Of culture and her statuelike
repose;
But when discussing subjects with Boston
maiden's might
Her eyes fash through her glasses like a loco
motives light
Oh. she is Just a daisy. Though the drawback
of her sex
Keeps her from being president, her mind it
doesn't vex;
For there are higher stations she Is able to
attain
By having so much knowledge In her active
little brain
And now the wonder cometh; this sweet col
lege girl, who might
Reform the very universe which men have
ruined quite,
Stays at home TO help her mother In the
kitchen, where she makes
The most delicious puddings, pies and home
made bread and cakes
A man who thinks q woman's higher educa-
ton tends
To make her hate domestic work, on which his
bliss depends,
Should taste this maiden's cooking, for the
more that women know
The more Of sweet home happiness they're able
TO bestow.

Did Not Like Smoke:'
There was once a priest who had Q
niece who was resolved not TO marry.
Often she was asked, but she would not
listen, for she had got it into her head
that she would not have man who
smoked. Finally young fellow cams
and asked for her hand. Her uncle said
10 him, "Do you smoker Yes, sir, be
replied Then my niece viii refuse
you. for she will not have any one who
smokes" But the suitor said: "Is that
all? III let the smoking alone The
uncle called his niece. She said yes.
and they were married.
In the evening Of ths day they were
married the bridegroom, without saying
a syllable to his wife, went OF TO bed
aud was soon fast asleep. And in the
same way every day when ne came home
he never spoke. but went straight 70 bed
without taking any notice Of her. She
thought this conduct strange. and began
to fret and pine. Her uncle said 20 her
one day: What IL the matter that yen

The new explosive called ammonite is
probably the most useful and reliable yet
made. 1t has great power, is free from
danger in manufacturing and in use,
and recent tests made with it in Eng

ing it for transportation without the
usual restrictions pertaining to explo-
sives. 1t is not injured by exposure to

THE POPE AND LABOR.
His Attitude Toward Cardinal Manning
With Reference to the Question.


With Reference to the Question.
RoaE, June 25.-Reports have again
been circulated regarding the Pope's
attitude toward Cardinal Manning in
respect to the labor question. 1t has
been asserted that the Pope, disap-
proving OF the advanced ideas Of Car
dinal Manning, has intimated to him
that in the Pope's opinion he was going
too far in his treatment OF social
questions. 1t is authoritatively learned
that these reports are entirely without
foundation. On the contrary, very
intimate correspondence has passed be-
tween the Pope and Cardinal Manning
only just lately on the occasion Of
the publication Of the social encyclical.
On the 10th OF June the Pope received Il
detailed report from.his eminence OF the
impression produced by the enCyclical
in England. In his report, the Cardi-
nal declares that the pontitical docu-
ment has not met with the slightest OPP
position, neither in the higher nor the
lower spheres OF life; that it has had n
sympathetic reception in the English
press; that the plutocracy itself has not
taken offence and that the national
prejudice against Rome has become
considerably modified in the face Of this
enlightened and pacific declaration:
"My expectations" wrote Cardinal
Manning, "haye been surpassed.
Efforts have been made to induce
Cardinal Simeoni to retire from his
office of Project OF the Propaganda, but
he has refused to do SO. No change,
therefore, is probable for some time at
any ratio.
Arrangements are being completed
for the publication Of new weekly
theological review. Itwillbe conducted
by Rev. Mr.. Fasnnante, who will be
assisted by both American and Roman
prelates. The review will be printed in
English and will make special feature
of American ecclesiastical questions.

NEw YoRK, June 25.-It is not gener-
ally known that, Jay Gould had very
narrow escape from being ground to

from his country place, two miles away.
The other morning as he and few
others stepped across the tracks at the

city, westbound express hove in sight,
coming at high rate Of speed. Its
track was the one between the station
and the local train and standing onitall
obliyious to danger, were Mr.: Gould and
his fellow travellers. A station hand
saw the express and gave a sharp yell
OF danger, at which all save Mr.. Gould
turned quickly and leaped back to the
station platform. Baggagemaster Bar
rard pushed through the passengers,
Jumped TO the track, and grabbing the
railroad king by the collar, jerked him
back upon the platform, and before
the capitalist knew what 1t all meant
the express had thundered by. By the
time most Of the spectators had regained
their equanimity the rescued man was
on his train for the city, as cool and
collected as though nothing had hap
