moments life, reached here few days
ago ON herway to Europe. THERE'S moth.
ing remarkable in that, acknowledge.
But wait ~This younr, happy. beautiful,
and well dressed woman did not come e
New York alone-not quite. In fact she
had maid with her. Besides that maid
(who seemed very jewel of an unob.
trusive and serviceahle servantl were nine
children, the eldest of which, / will go
upon oath, is not more than y years old.
Seven of them are boys. IL you are
good arithmetician, you may easily fig
ure out that two are girls. All OF them
are towheads. The girls are demure. the
boys are turbulent And when you have
seven healthy, happy boys, with the ira.
ditional boy appetite under their jackets
all at one table and with New York ho-
tel menu in reach, you may lay modest
wager that the mother who makes con-
scientious effort TO keep them within the
bounds of decorum has formidable con-
tract ON hand.
Il kept furtive eve ON the group for
three days, and the more observed the
greater grew my admiration for that
mother, whose generalship was such that
the champion crank Of our hotel-eyen
the man who has no appetite and wants
the dining room windows kept shut all
summer-joined the rest of us in approx.
ing smiles whenever she and her Nine
filed in for meal.
To-day she left us, and the whole es-
tablishment went down to the steamer 10
give her a good luck send off. On board
she kept those impulsive lads of hers un-
der steady subsection without in the least
CALLING their bounding spirits. When the
big ship backed out into the stream they
swung their hats and hurrahed their
goodbyes, and the two demure little girls
tossed their finger tips 10 us In token that
we had not made ourselves disagreeable
to them during their occupancy Of the
big family table in the center of our din
ing room.
Now, what do you think Of woman

The sick room was very stall the night.
lamp burned low, and the watchers made
fantastic shadows on the wall, but no
one moved or spoke. The doctor said
this was the turning point of the disease,
and there was nothing 10 do but 90 wait
wait.
The boy slept and his father kept his
eyes fixed upon the thin, wasted features,
and watched for what he hoped would
prove a new lease of life. The mother
had gone to lie down and rest. The
nurse sat near and dozed. AT last the
sick child suddenly opened his large
bright eyes and saio in clear voice:
Papa.
What, dear boyl1 answered the father
softly.
rs il near morningi"
Yes, dear boy I"
And win be well in the morning? ?"
"I-I hope so, sobbed the poor father,
family.
There was long silence, then the sick
child moved restles " on his pillows.

INJURED.
The father beckoned to the nurse aud
she brought the mother, who stole softly
in and knelt ON the other side of the bed.
Lift me up, said the dying child in
full clear voice; "hold me, papa, while l
say my prayers.
He clasped his little hands together and
repeated like one who was dreaming:
~Our-Father-whi art in heaven
hallowed - be-Thy name-Thy king
Thy kingdom-come-"
Papa, can't remember! can't re-
memberls
No matter, dear boy, you can finishit
in the morning.
Again he lay among the pillows like a
pale lily, and his eyes were open wide.
Il can't see you, papa, he murmured.
HWill it soon be morning?"
Yes, dear boy"
And will be well then?"
The poor father could not answer. No
one spoke, and a faint light. soon stole
into the room that drowned the flicker
ing rays of the night lamp and shone
rosy on the wall. Then suddenly little
voice filed the room. It was so sweet
and clear that it sounded like strain of
music from celestial spheres. II was the
dying boy finishing his prayeri When he
came TO the last clause he seemed CROP
ing in doubt.
Forever and ever--forever and ever"
and with the words on his lips he drifted
off to sleep again.
The rising sun shone into the room and
lighted up its dim obscurity. II lay in
golden bars on the white pillows, and
touched the little face with mocking
glow Of health and strength. Perhaps
it wakened him, but in the valley of the
shadow of death he could not discern,
and with wide open eyes that saw not. he
murmured plaintively:
Is it nearly morning, papa?"
at is morning now, dear boy"
A smile trembled ON the closed lips
there was flutter of breath that came
and went as the child elasped his thin
hands together:

For nearly four years a company of
capitalists and engineers has continued
experiments with more and more inn
proved combination of pneumatic tubes
and electric appliances intended TO for
ward mail matter at a rate of speed far
exceeding that of the fastest express
trains. For short distances cylindrical
boxes, holding about 200 letters apiece,
can undoubtedly be shot along at the
rate of 100 miles an hour, and by means
Of a system of quick transfer stations the
transit time from New Orleans TO Phila-
delphia could thus be shortened to ten or
twelve hours. The establishment of an
experimental line between Philadelphia
and New York seems an assured fact,
and the State of California would find it
a profitable Investment TO spend a dozen
millions in encouraging the invention.
The expenses of a trip to the West coast
Of our continent and the irksomeness of
few days confinement in a railway car
are, after all, only minor considerations,
and the circumstance deterring most
East Americans from transferring their
homes to the Pacific Slope is the delay in
the mail communications with the At
lantic States. A line of pneumatic tubes
from Baltimore to San Francisco would
at once remove that objection.

Tn. Chair ofIaris.

On the very summit of Cader-Idris, a
mountain peak in Merionethshire, Wales,

About Bess.

Plato was called the "Athenian BeeH
on account of the sweetness and purity
of his style.
"A bee in your bonnet is a phrase
meant to imply that your head swarms
with dreamy theories. This connection
between bees and the head is derived
from the belief OF the ancients, who
called the moon a bee; and the word
lunatic or moonstruck still means one
who has bees in his head.
Mahomet admitted bees TO Paradise ON
account of the belief that they were
wandering souls.
Bee raisers have numerous proverbs re-
garding bees which they regard with
generation, such as this:
"A swarm Of bees In May
Is worth a load OF hay;
But a swarm In July
is not worth ny.n
An allusion TO the custom Of telling
the bees is found in histories and il one
of the traditions Of the past which il so
remote that its origin can not be traced.
On the death of a member Of the family
1t was customary to drape the hives with
Al NAAAD Nao hNktNNhEA " war
believed that the bees would leave tho
hives and seek new homes.
The custom is observed in rural New
England and many other parts Of
America and is quite general in the old
world.
Our own Whittier has embodied the
quaint superstition in beautiful poem I;
Before them under the garden wall.
Forward and back
Went drearily singing the ehore-girl small
Draping each hive with shred Of black.
Trembling, ! listen; the summer sun
Had the chill Of snow.

WestPhalia Colliery-Foreign.
LONDON, Jan. 26.-.Further details have
been received here Of the terrible colliery
explosion which happened ON Wednesday
at Jusovka Depot, near Charkov, Russia
The explosion caused fire to break out
in three pits. The owners and managers
of the mines tried to descend into the
burning pits, but the fumes of the gas
were so heavy and overpowering that
they were compelled to desist in their eff
forts in this direction.
Eventually rescuing party succeeded
in entering the mines and reaching the
entombed men, After considerable
labor and danger the rescuers brought
to the surface the bodies of twenty
of the miners who had been killed. They
also rescued ninety-one men who were in
an unconscious condition, These latter
were all badly burned and bruised, and
twenty of them subsequently succumbed
to their injuries. II is said the explosion
was caused by a man lighting cigarette.
