Two Sinners.

There was man, it was said one time,
Who went astray in his youthful prime.
Can the brain keep cool and the heart keep
quiet
When the blood is a river that's running riot?
And boys will be boys, the old folks say,
And the mans the better who's had his day.
The sinner reformed and the preacher told
OF the prodigal son who came back to the fold.
And the Christian people threw open the door
With warmer welcome than ever before.
Wealth and honor were his to command.
And a spotless woman gave him her hand,
And the world strewed their pathway with
flowers a-bloom,
Crying, God bless lady and God bless groom"
There was maiden went astray
In the golden dawn of her life's young day;
She had more passion and heart than head,
And she followed blindly where fond love led,
And love unchecked is u dangerous guide
To wander at will by II fair girls side.
The woman repented and turned from sin,
But no door opened to let her in;
The preacher prayed that she might be for
given,
But told her to look for mercy in heaven;
For this is the law of earth, we know,
That the woman is scorned, while the man
may go.
A brave man welded her, after all,
But the world said, frowning, we shall not

George William Curtis.

Had letters kept YOU, every wreath were yours;
Had the world tempted, all its chariest doors
Had swung on flattered hinges to admit
Such high bred manners, such good natured
wit;
At courts, in senates, who so fit to server
And both invited, but you would not swerve,
All meaner praises waving that you might
In civic duty spend your heat and light
Unpaid, untrammelcd, with sweet disdain
Refusing posts men grovel to attain.
Good Man all own you what is left me then
To heghten praise with but Good Citizen?
But praise can harm not who SO calmly met
SANDERS worst word, nor treasured up the
debt,
Knowing. what all experience serves to show.
No mud can soil us but the mud we throw.
You have heard harsher voices and more loud
AS all must, not sworn liegemen of the crowd
And far aloof your silent mind could keep,
As when in heavens with winter midnight
deep,
The perfect moon hangs thoughtful, nor can
know
What hounds her lucent calm drives mad be-
low.

Migration of the Birds.

Our happiness, if we are bird lovers
indeed, waits not upon novelties and
rarities. All such exceptional bits of
or withhold as they will. The grand
spectacle itself will not fail us. Even
now, through all the northern country,
the procession is getting under way.
For the next three months it will be
passing-millions upon millions; war
blers, sparrows, thrushes, viroes, black
birds, hycatchers, wrens, kinglets, wood
peckers, swallows, humming birds,
hawks, with sandpipers, plovers, ducks
and geese, gulls, and who knows how
many more?
Night and day, week days and Sun
days, they will be flying, now singly or
in little groups, and fitting from one
wood or pasture to another; now in
great companies and with protracted all
day or all night flights. Who could ask
a better stimulus for his imagination
than the annual southing of this mighty
host? Each member of it knows his own
time and his own course. On such
day the snipe will be in such meadow
and the golden plover in such field.
Some no doubt will lose their way.
Numbers uncounted will perish by
storm and flood; numbers more, alas! by
human agency. AS l write, with the
sad note of a bluebird in my ear, can
see the seabeeches and marshes lined
with guns. But the army will push on;
they will come to their desired haven,
for there is spirit in birds also, land
the inspiration of the Almighty giveth
them understanding" g."-Bradford Tarry

What Antoine Found in the Coal.

1t was a queer find, that of Antoine
Hagenlocker, and none can blame him
for being surprised Antoine is an en-
gineer in the employ of the Ansonia
Brass and Copper company, and as he
placed an extra large lump of soft coal
under the boiler he had no thoughts of
what that lump of coal contained. A
few minutes later he opened the furnace
door again, and what was his surprise to
see in the furnace q handsome plant re-
sembling species of cactusl 1t was
bright red from the heat, every vein in
the leaves being defined. He carefully
removed it from the furnace without
breaking, and when it cooled it turned
to dull gray color.
1t rests on a base of coal and then
stands out well defined petrifed plant,
but not carbonized, SO that it burned as
readily as did the coal surrounding it.
He has shown the formation to many,
and nothing like it has ever been seen
here. The stalk of the plant where cut
from the parent stem is well defined.
Mr.. Hagenlocker is to have it mounted
and placed under a glass case.-Water-

CHARGED WITH HIGH TREASON



Homestead Advisory Board.
PITTsBURG, Oct. 1.-The greatest sensa
ton in the Homestead mill trouble since
the riot of July was sprung by the Car
negie company officials. A veritable bomb
was thrown into the camp of the strikers
when Chief Justice Paxton, of the state
supreme court issued warrants for the ar
rest of all the members of the strikers ad
visory committee, charging them with
treason against the commonwealth. This
Is the first case of the kind ever known
here.
The men charged with treason are: Da.
vid Shannon, John McLuckie, David
Lynch, Thomas J. Crawford, Hugh ODon-
nell, Harry Bayne, Elmer +. Rail, Isaac
Byers, Henry Bayers, r. f. Brown, George
Champers, Isaac Critchlow, Miller Colgan.
John Coyle, Jack Clifford, Dennis NJ. Cush,
William McCanegly, Michael Cummings,
William Combs, John Dierken, Patrick
Pagan, w. H. Catches, Matthew Harris.
Reed Kennedy, John Miller, S. b. Searight,
John Murray, H. H. Thompson, Martin
Murray, Hugh Ross, William Il. Roberts,
George Rylands and George w. Sarver.
The information recites that on or about
July l the defendants, not weighing the
duty of their allegiance to the laws of the
commonwealth, DuU WlcKeuly QeSlBnlng
and intending to excite insurrecton, rebel
lion and war against said commonwealth,
did, at the borough of Homestead, hinlaw-
fully, maliciously, falsely and traitorously
compass and intend to raise and levy war,
insurrection and rebellion against the
commonwealth of Pennsylvania with a
great multitude of persons, numbering hun
dreds, armed and arrayed in a warlike man
ner with guns and revovers, cannon,
swords knives, clubs and other warlike
weapons and did array and dispose them
selves against said commonwealth, and that
its constitution, laws and authority were
defied, resisted and subverted by the de
PENDANTS and their armed allies, contrary
to the duty, allegiance and fidelity of said
defendants.
The first five men to be arrested were
Acting Chairman Crawford, Edward
Beard, George Rylands, John Dierken and
Brown. 1t is said that Pat Farrell, the
chief Of the Carnegie detectives, has over
16O more warrants and they will be served
as fast as the men can be located. The men
were locked up in the guard tent at Mum
hall and were later taken to Pittsburg,
where they will have a hearing In no case
were the warrants read to the men, who
are indignant over the proceedings.

DAMN DIES IN JAIL,


Dose of Morphine.
BUFFALO, Oct. 4-Edward S. Damn, the
notorious bank wrecker, has ended his in
famous career with his own hand, adding
self murder to his other crimes. He died
yesterday evening at the close OF the day
he was to have been tried for robbing
the National Savings bank. The cause of
death is given by his family physician as
rupture of an artery in the brain" 1t is
known, however, that he took opium on
Saturday, and the intent of suicide is very
clear.
The news of Dann's arrest caused great
excitement when it was made known in
June. He was not locked up like com
mon criminal at first, but was allowed to
go to and from his home under surveillance
of a detective. Then it was that Damn made
his first and unsuccessful attempt to take
his own life. He swallowed twenty NOR
phine pills. His stomach rebelled, threw
off the poison and he lived on in disgrace
The examiners found in column after
column of figures distractions running
back for long period of years, and con
tinuing up to the very day he was appre-
hended, when he stole package of $40, 600
deposited by eXJustice Charles Daniels, of
the supreme court. The shortage at first
was stated at 100000, then at 5000 600; then
it was said to more than reach the banks
surplus.
Finally it was learned that the aggregate
steal was half million. Before the figures
had reached this total Damn had been put
in Jail on warrants sworn out by indignant
stockholders, headed by Alderman Jack

section east of the city will be brought
in by electricity this fall, and the East
Cleveland electric road has built two
lines connecting with its street tracks
five miles beyond the eastern city limits
into rich market gardening and grape

1t is the nature of a man to pursue.
He regards the whole world as hunt
ing ground, and anything that pleases
his fancy, whether it be bird, a pretty
woman or brute, as his lawful prey.
He may not care for the game or
know why he pursues it, but the chase
is irresistible, and, like the child with
the butterfly, he will spoil his pretty
clothes, stub his toe and get his feet wet
running through brambles and puddles
as long as the winged thing is in sight
If woman only knew it she could win
her lover by eluding him, for man ever
wants what he can't get easily, and
prizes most the fruit that hangs highest.
To him no beauty is so enhancing as
that which smiles and bushes beneath
the mystic web of a gauzed veil, and
doubly lovely is the loveliness that turns
and flies at his approach.
Henshal knew neither rest nor peace
of mind. The throbbing, sobbing notes
of Edna's violin were as sweet to him as
the music of the rolling spheres to the
old philosopher.
He had eyes for nothing but the soft
browns of her hair, lashes, complexion
and dress. He thought of her through
the day and dreamed of her in the night,
and could they have been vocalized ev-
cry sigh would have uttered, 81 will
find her."
And as he followed this small woman
with his thoughts and his soul his bride
Lena first became moody, then fearful,
and finally so respondent that she threw
herself in the arms of her companion
and begged her to tell her what to do.
There was not any too much nectar in
the make up of Mrs. Smith, and no dan
ger of her sharpening the edge of Mrs.
HenshalIs sensibilities Instead of put
ting her arm about her neck, and electri-
flying her medulla spinalis with the
magic of her touch, she took hairpin
from her coiffure and proceeded to
loosen the cuticle about the girls finger
nails.
"And SO you are disappointed with
married life already? Well, my dear,
you have only made the common error
of expecting too much. You have fool
ishly invested the field of wedlock with
the couleur de rose, and studied your
hero through the magnifying lens when
you should have reversed the glass.

The schooner Lulu lies on the ways at
Captain Hunts wharf, at the foot of F
street. in quite dilapidated condition,
her bottom scraped as though she had
been drawn across the blight, and about
a quarter of her rudder missing. 1t all
happened in this way:
The evening of July 10 Captain Ed
Burke was at the wheel, sailing north
ward under a stiff breeze. The vessel is
of five tons burden and was loaded with
AZ tons of fish. He was just off Point
Canovas, $50 miles south, and was home
ward bound. All at once the little craft
reared up out of the water, the stem
went down into the sea, and a crashing
told that something unusual had hap
pened.
John Fitzhughes was sitting forward
near the port rail, and he went over
board head first, but in his descent he
grabbed loose line that hung over the
side. The vessel next raised out of the
water from the middle, as if forced up
by powerful jackscrew. She went up
like flash and fell back just in time to
right herself. Then something struck
the rudder powerful jolt, and the
tiller threw Captain Burke sprawling to
the deck. By this time Fitzhughes had
managed to climb aboard, and huge
whale, appearing to be wounded, threw
water from his spouting apparatus all
over the vessel. The monster swan
rapidly away, spouting at irregular but
frequent intervals, and the two salts got
on their knees and offered up thanks for
their safe delivery.-San Diego Sun.

II you'd make life worth the living
In this valley here below,
Take the fun in with tho labor
Take enjoyment as you go.
If you'd live the noblest, truest,
Keeping cheerful, brave and strong,
Do not slave for future pleasures;
Take them as you go along.
Do not lay up all your treasures,
After years of life to bless;
Do not wait until your efforts
Meet the fullness of success.
Do not drudge till your position
Is the richest men among,
Ere you taste of life's sweet nectars:
Sip them as you go along.
Pleasure makes your work more easy;
Work shows pleasure at its best;
Rest will nerve the arm to labor;
Labor, too, brings sweetest rest.
Work with steady, earnest effort
In the pushing, crowding throng;
But do not forget the pleasures;
Take them as you go along.
