ROOM FOR THE CALAMITY
PARTY.

One Of the most striking sentences
in Senator Allricll's recent mastery
speech on tariff was the II in
which he declared, there is no per-
manant place in American politics
for q party that bases its claim for
popular support in the failures and
disappointments Of the people" Il
is the fatal weakness OF the demo-
cracy that it il a calamity party. It
thrives only in seasons Of depres-
sion and disaster; aud in the mag
nificent industrial and commercial
development Of tie United States
for the past quarter Of century
such seasons have been are and
brief. The party Of pessimism and
discomfort, the party whose organs
do their best to bring about misfor-
tuue by constantly predicting it, is
~squarely opposed to the spirit Of
American endeavor and progress.
II cannot gain and retain power, for
prosperity, not adversely, is thenor-
NAL and prevailing condition Of the
American people.

"Well, they followed him pretty well
all over the country, public feeling was
so hard against him that every one
knew he could not hide long, and at last
they came upon him half starved in a
barn; he faced them and shot himself,
and escaped hanging"

recent experience in the train.
''The queer part of it, sir, is this" said
the station master; "after the coroners

riage-left untouched for them, you'll
understand-we never used it; somehow
the men did not like it, and one market
day they sent it back to the station you
came from, sir, and for years it was not
used. Then four years ago, as said,
they hooked it. on for the races, every
bit of rolling stock being wanted, and
then it came III here with its door swing
ing, and swooning woman inside, who
told strange story when it could be
got out of her. The men liked it less
after that and sent it back again, and
now that fool down the line drags it out
on race day of all days in the year, and
puts you in it, sir, and in my idea it
ought to be broken into firewood."
We talked until my train came in,
and told him all 1 heard on that awful
journey.
"Poor SOUL" he said, 81 seem to know
that girl"
"By the bye" asked, as packed my
things into carriage in the train that
was to take me on, carefully choosing a
compartment full of smokers, "what
was her name? Do you remembers"
He curved his hand around his mouth
and leaned toward me.
"Kate Lee" he said.

Brooklyn,s Roomy Park.

Brooklyn is becoming quite a town
for parks, and the taxpayers have never
been known in recent years to object to
having their money spent for such pur
poses. There was great outcry thirty
five years ago, when the laying out of
Prospect park was suggested, but no.
body now worries because the project
was carried through. The city made
very profitable bargain in buying the
51G Is acres contained in that park and
paying only So, ,91S 800 20 for them. Since
then the city has expended $5,34S, ,S60.3 80
on construction account, making this
one park represent an expenditure of
50, ,26S, ,231 .05, but if it was put ON the
market tomorrow it would easily sell for
twice that amount.
This is the biggest breathing spot in
the city. 1t contains 10 acres of wood
land, II acres of lakes, 20 acres of
meadow land and 259 1-6 acres of plan
tations. To accommodate owners of
horses there are miles of drives and
) 1-10 miles of bride roads, while the
most enthusiastic pedestrian ought to
be satisfied with his II miles of walks.
IN addition the national guard and the
baseball players are provided with
plot of level greensward known as the
parade grounds, and covering an area of
30 acres.-New York Times.

with his hands to the guard, and then
stood apparently in much perplexity as
the train slowly left the station. Then
he glanced at me.
"You look cold, sir" he said; "come

81 was asleep-I mean 1 had been
asleep, and perhaps [ kicked it."
"Ah" breathed the station master.
"Why?" l ventured to ask, after
silence.
"Only that four years ago, ON the first
day of F. races, that same carriage
ran into our station with its doors open,
as it did today, and inside was woman
in a dead faint. She came to herself in
an hour and talked of murder"
''But that carriage-how do you
know"
"This is how I know, SIR" and the
man got up and shut the door, which
opened onto the platform, and pulled
his chair near mine when he came back.
"Some seven or eight years ago I was
master here and waiting for the train
passing through to the races, as it might
be today, and as she came in I saw a
door open, and going forward found the
compartment in disorder, knife on the
floor, blood on it and on the seat and
carpet and a slit in the stuffing of the
cushion at the back just at the height

out quickly enough when her old father
came to identify her; he said she'd been
robbed, too, for she had one hundred
pounds in notes ON her when she was
murdered"
"And the mamie did not escape?"
"No, the police guessed what he had
been up to, and traced him to the races,
where they made out he had lost every
note he stole. He had been betting
largely ON one horse"-

The Features of the Camel.

Apart from differences in species, to
enumerate the parts of the camel is to
catalogue instances of evident design.
His long neck, giving wide range of
vision in desert marches and enabling
him to reach far to the meager desert
shrubs on either side of his pathway.
The cartilaginous texture of his mouth,
enabling him to eat hard and thorny
plants-the pasture of the desert Ears
very small and nostrils large for breath
ing, but also specially capable of closure
by valvelike folds against the fearful
simoom. Eyes prominent, but protected
by heavy overhanging upper lid,
limiting vision upward and guarding
from the direct rays of the monday sun.
Cushioned feet, peculiarly adapted for
ease of the rider and the animal alike.
Five horny pads to rest on when
kneeling for burden OF repose on the hot
sand. His hump-not a tictional, but
real and acknowledged reserve store of
nutriment, as well as natures packsad-
die for the commerce of ages-have you
ever thought of the relation between
your morning cup of Mocha and the
hump of camel in Yemen? His wa

labored strain which told me we were

not alone, that there We're other persons

What fool l must have looked, sleep

that two persons at least had passed me

moment to their conversation, wishing
to gather who my companions might be
before daylight showed them to me.
They were very near me, it seemed,
on the opposite seat by the door, and the
first words heard were these, spoken in
a gentle girlish voice, but with a sad
firmness in it:
Il cannot, Harry!''
The answer startled me, it was so
roughly given, and the voice was a mans,
"You mean you won't, Kate, and
there's an end of it,"
Then the girl whispered something
that I did not catch, but could hear
the man half push her from him as he
exclaimed:
Il am ruined man without it, and
you won't lift a finger to save me-"

Bake kettles to supplement the brick
ovens to this day are used on southern
plantations. These kettles or ovens are
placed upon the Goals in huge fireplaces,
on the covers of which We're put Goals
so that both top and bottom would bake
alike.
Johnnycake and shortcake We're often
baked upon board tilted in front of
the fire upon the hearth. The turning
of these cakes required sleight of

deftly enough. Small tin bakers, closed
on three sides, were afterward sub

A Flag Made of Undershirts.

Perhaps the most interesting war relic
in Maine is Union flag made from the
undershirts of the prisoners at Salisbury
prison. The prisoners had set day
upon which they intended to rise and
overpower the guards. The flag was to
be used as a rallying signal. But before
the day arrived orders came for them to
be exchanged. The flag was brought
home by Lieutenant George B. Kennis-
ton, of Boothbay, a member of the Fifth
Maine, whose property the flag now is.
