LEAVING OUR OLD HOME.

Can we leave thee? Can we leave theel
Oh thou dear old house Of God!
Where His own have oft been gathered.
Some lie near thee, meath the sod,
Where our darling little children
Have been taught to love the Lord,
Where by blessed teachers faithful,
They have Learned to love HIS word
Thou hast sheltA Q | many pilgrims
From the sunshine and the ain,
While they listened to the go spell,
As from holy lips it came,
C,n We leave the holy temple?
Where our faithful pastor dear,
Teaches US the ways of Jesus,
Well we know God sent him here.
Where our!hearts have oft been melted
BY the holy word OF truth;
And our sins by Jesus pardoned,
Both the aged and the youth.
Oh the many ties that bind US,
TO the dear old house of God.
As we leave it thus behind us,
For our long looked for abode,
May the Holy Spirit lead us,
As the change we pilgrims make,
Holy MAMMA Savior feel us,
When our places there we take.
May our hearts with love be kindled
For Thy lost ones is our prayer.
That Thy house may be refuge
From world of toni and care.
May the beauty of Thy temple,
Where ThOu too with us must go,
Lift our hearts to mansions grander,
From this sinful werld below.

YsrnIoaiYea fn Warfare.

The explosive dualin Is one of the most terrible known, as may be in- ferred from the story of m accident in Pennsylvania resulting from it's care less handling. The victims of the af- fair not only suffered from fractures of the skull and the bones of the face, but their bodies were covered with scores of wounds resembling those made by bullets. The employment of such an agency in warfare would prove horribly destructive. but the men whose busi- ness it is T0 make conflict as dreadful as possible would not shrink from it's use on that account. Indeed there is 8 growing conviction among such men that the theory that the danger of war decreases as the destructive possibili- ties are multiplied is sound, and there fore they do not shrink from devising the most cruel machinery. Whatever may be the cause it Is fact that na- tions are no longer eager to rush into conflict. It is just possible that the re- straint is due in part to reason and dread of consequences. If the latter is the predominating cause the world may be thankful that science has made such awful results possible.

It fastens in the back with common sense buckle and has pockets. To help out the inn precision that it is a real waistcoat a plait is added with buttons sewn on to initiate the vest opening.

If ever ''Collars and Cuffs," the lamented English prince, had peer in his realm of peculiarity and idiosyncracy it was in Bobby liar gous.

VauItinG Ambition.

Feminine physical culture is a good thing and enjoyable as well, but it has Its occasional embarrassments. The Rockville Conn., Journal learns that a young lady member of the local class of physical culture had an extraordi- nary adventure the other afternoon, which is just whispered about. The young lady was one of a group of mem- bers of the class who were engaged at kicking against wall to see athow high an elevation they could place their dainty No. 2's. A tall girl had made a great record, kicking far above the others. The heroine of our tale, being ambitious, became fired with determi- nation toexcel the tall girl who smiled so complacently. She therefore adjusted her bangs, took short run and kicked how she did kick, to be sure! Her foot shot up far above the mark made by the tall girl. But the girl who had made this extraordinary kick9 Alas her foot caught on a picture nail, and she, unable to get it loose, hung there like a bag of meal. Her companions al last released. her from her awkward predicament.

COUNTING in Jersey City there is gathered about the one center not less than 2,0OO,OOO people, of whom all the adults either work for their living or subsist on the money they inherited, thus getting it in what Dundreary says is the only respectable way. As yet New York is the greatest manufac- turing center in the union. The leading industry is clothing, of which is made there annually nearly a million dollars worth. Next comes the manufacture of malt liquors. One of the largest of New York's beer factories is euphoni- ously named Hell Gate brewery. The industry third in rank is the printing buslness-the making of books and newspapers. Half a million news papers would be a moderate estimate of the number consumed in greater New York every day. Thus New Workers demand first something to put outside, second something to put inside and thIrd something for their brains. In New York city, and within a radius of twenty-five miles of it, more people are
 living to-day than the whole thirteen colonies contained at the time of the revolution.

vorite, and has displaced every other style in popular favor. And yet some very unique designs have been put upon the market only to fall flat and to prove unproftable
 In scarfs Americans go to London for their styles. And on this point the man of fashion is perhaps more particular than he is on any part of his attire; that is. he devotes more time to securing proper effects and designs in this class of wear than he does to his tailor or to his linen, And no man of fashion con- siders it in style to wear the same scarf two days in succession. On this point the London regulation is accepted as in- violable. And on still another point is the man of fashion obdurate. His scarf must be tied by hand.
 Robert Cutting, Jr., has a collection of over one hundred scarfs for every season. He tells me that he has never known the designs for spring wear to be prettier, nor have the styles ever quite come up to those of this year, al- though it must be said that the change from those of last season is by no means decided.
 In the tied-by-hand class this year the styles are a very pretty modification of the four-in-hand, the Ascot and the bow. The latter will be very popular in large as well as in moderate widths. The four-in-hand and the Ascot, while changed in figuring and slightly in cut, remain the same in respect to width as last season. In the ''made-up" school of ties shapes vary materially. Tecks are made with small knots and large aprons, the puffs are modest and in- clined to be flat, and the bows are made to represent as nearly as possible the tied-by-hand article.
 Among the London standard designs is what is known as ''the silverlaid," a soft, tied-by-hand knot. The knot is very small, and the aprons come out in soft and natural way. The ''Levant' is another English design which is tied to produce a fiat effect. In fact, the center is entirely smooth and fiat, and the creases are adjusted at either side. It is tied like the Ascot, and the aprons

 Rest at Carlsbad.

The Minister of War, Gen!Svon KaIten
 born, :s Also IIl-His Illness Said to be
 Diplomatic, Due to Inability to Ably
 Defend Army Reform Plans of the Elm
 peror-Hs Has Cut a Poor Figure in
 Parliament.
 BERLIN, April s.-The adjournment oi the Landtag yesterday without having made an appropriation for the salary ot the new Minister President of Prussia, shows that the Cabinet crisis is still acute The Independents and members of the left wing of the National Liberals say that the government now virtually acknowledges that the separation of the Chancellorship from the Minister Presi- dency was only 8 temporary makeshift.
 The government, in view of the Radical and Liberal opposition to the separation, they say, has decided to unite the offices in the near future under the incumbency of Count Botho vo Eulenburg, and there fore avoid the excitement incident upon needless debate on the proposed appro- priation.
 It is an open secret that Count von Caprivi is determined to retire. His pride has been galled by the taunts oi the Liberals in the Reichstag since the appointment of Eulenburg, and he has shown himself to be only half hearted in his defence of the Emperor's course in the recent emergency. Just before the adjournment of the Reichstag he re marked to Herr von Levetzow:
 Fl have little heart for these shan battles.
 The Chancellor's journey to Carlsbad and the announcement that he is suffer ing from Overwork are regarded as tht prelude to his retirement. Few minis ters have left the Prussian or Imperial Cabinet in the last five years without similar advance notices.

 "Louis Onativia has just picked out his spring wardrobe" said fashionable haberdasher to me the other day, "and while you are writing up styles in waistcoats, collars and shirts, suppose you take look at his orders. Here are some of his Marseilles and linen duck effects for summer wear" These I found were cut both double and single breasted, although those in the former style were more numerous and evident ly in greater favor. They were made with five buttons and not cut deeply. All told Onativia has ordered forty for spring wear and similar number for the summer.

The grounds are in matte weave; the stripes and other effects are in raised work and are very cleverly relieved by interwoven lines o1 color. Costumes with fancy worsted effects are also in fashion. The effects are all quiet, although some of these soft fannel-like fabrics are also shown

 One of the most interesting designs is what is known as "the new cravat. :" This is an American effect. It is band which buckles in the back, sewn to which arc two bow ends. It permits the wearer to tic it in any style suitable to him, or in conformity with the ruling fashion. and yet avoids all the annoy ances that attend the tying of bow every time it is put on.
 Men have peculiar fads when it comes to wearing ties. MT. Deacon, the in- jured husband in the Cannes affair, is said to have predilection for yellow, and his collection of ties is said to re- semble vast garden of sunflowers.
 Chauncey Depew always wears minis terial black. Elisha Dyer, Jr., likes blue effects and has them in all possible figures. Creighton Webb wears plain figured brown ties, always.
 De Lancey Nicon has a penchant for finely figured black and white designs.
 Ward McAllister wears black and white ties only. Strange to say, he has

e peculiar dislike to anything outside of these simple color effects. "Blue, yell low, red, green or brown, particularly in loud designs, are vulgar. Black, and white are always in fashion," he says.
 In the purchases of Onativia noticed that colors play quite an important part in the seasons wear. In fact, ob- served some delicate shades that are radically new. In fabrics the twill of fine quality still leads. Ottomans in light cords, French satins, crepe de chimes, Bedford crepes and silks are all popular. But throughout my inspec- tion of goods was impressed with the fact that in not one instance did note loud design or a rich fabric.
 Incidently I might remark that belts and sashes are going to be ''matter of necessity for the man of fashion this summer. The haberdashers have loaded themselves with stacks of both, and the fiat that they must be worn in every conceivable shade and style has gone forth.
 In shirts 1 noticed some very pretty designs in the neglige class for summer wear. But the styles are practically unchanged. One of those saw had an intricately constructed bosom, combin- ing cluster tucl1s in white, with inter spaces of dotted percales. It seemed to me to overcome the objection usually made to neglige shirts, their tendency to show a careless appearance.

 THE intrinsic value of the stock of the Meriden, Waterbury & Connecticut River railroad appears to be $3 share. At least that is the valuation placed upon the stock by F. H. Prince & Go, the bankers, who have come into pos session of the road. Shareholders may accept that amount or nothing: that is what the proposition of the Prince party amounts to. Many of the holders of stock are 10th to surrender their certificates, for the double reason that three per cent, the amount offered, is an insignificant amount; but especially be- cause they would like to retain posses sion on account of sentimental reasons. They invested in the stock through native pride and do not take kindly to the freeze-out process. However, there are very few of the Waterbury stock holders who care to put any more money into the road. This they must do in order to retain possession of their shares.
