By chance an eagle fierce and proud came flying over land and sea, And stopping from his lofty cloud Looked down on lovely Rhodope Then, uttering scream of joy, He seized her little slipper bright A dainty, silsen, pearly toy And bore It swiftly out of sight The king, he sat in golden crown. About him stood glitteriny band; When To! an eagle gliling down, Had placed a slipper in his hand.

spoiled the Murder.

A mnrderous melodrama held the boards at Jacobs theatre last week. There was sprinkling of comedy, how ever, through the third act on Saturday evening that set the audience agog. The hero of the play had just described to the soubrette how himself and the boys had been down at the blacksmiths ''shoeing" geese. He cracked weak joke in explaining how the geese gath cred round pool of water near the old forge, and how the boys amused them selves by shaking their hats at them, shouting "Shoo, shoow The gallery boys caught on at once, and every time the villain unfolded one of his horrible plots on the lives of the hero and heroine the 'gods" completely drowned him out with their "shoos.'
 It was at a very serious situation in the performance. Tho life of an unpro- tected young heiress was about to be taken by the interruptions scoundrel. The sea rolled heavily and the storm ragged fiercely; while the desperate deed awaited execution. "Hal she comes; she'll never see him again" He was within arms reach of her now. He held bloody knife in his right hand. In moment he would plunge it into her body, but in the weirdest and most hair standing tones from among the angels came, "Shoo, shoo, shoo!" in rapid sue cession.
 The awful scene was broken. The viii lain jumped three feet in the air and forgot his lines. The heroine forgot her self, and looked her wouldbe murderer straight in the face with horror at the thought of a breakdown, but of course didn't see him. Whether by an act of providence, to save the villain from his nervous plight, or through the effect Of inclement weather on the electric wires, every light in the house went out in. stantly. Affairs were righted after & time.-New York Telegram.

The Poets of Ireland.

No critic has yet given us a scientific analysis of Irish genius. but there are certain features of it which all recog- nize as distinctive-as peculiarly Irish. The most marked of these, perhaps, is the delicate subtlety of the language used in expressing the emotions. Through all the ages this has been noted. No matter whether the poet or orator was Keltic or Norman, Dane or Saxon, if only his family had been in Ireland long enough, his effusions showed the same exquisite perception of the delicate shades of meaning in all words expressive of sorrow or love, anger, humor or hatred, devotion or patriotism. Is it in the air or the scenery?
 The verses of Tom Moore, Oliver Gold smith, Dr. Maginn, Charles Lover and many others might be cited in this con nection.
 These are but specimens of the most cultured Irish poets, but the great point of interest in this connection is the enor- nous mass of poetry and song floating among the common people. And this has distinguished Ireland from the ear. Hest times. The Druids and the bards, the early Christian missionaries and later heroes, even the transplantcd Danes, Normans, Scotchmen, Saxons, all were poetic after their kinds, and in many sec. tions of Ireland the trained ear often de. tects sort of rhythm in the common speech of the peasantry. To sketch ever so briefly the writers of popular Irish songs in recent times would simply be to write book. And the supply is ap. parently without limit, the music as sweet, the language as tender, as deli cately shaded as ever, No popular move ment is without it's poets, no corner of Ireland but enjoys many local ballads. Yet, it must be in the air,

Female Monkeys Sacrificed to Science.
 Science undertakes some queer expert ments in prosecuting it's inquiries. Re gently a London doctor collected lot of female monkeys, cased them with plaster of paris jackets to initiate stays, and ban daged their waists tightly. Most of the simians showed their appreciation of this treatment by dying few days afterward, thus furnishing the physician with lot of new arguments against the wearing of .corsets.
