DREAMLAND.
From Longman's Magazine.

From Longman's Magazine.
On the dim realm wandered through,
The shadow land OF sleep
Came many souls oflovers true,
A tryst unknown to keep.
There came the God of Dreams to rule
His phantom kingdonr Ter,
And roses white and wonderful, S.
And ghostly lilies bore.
And as wandered loneliest
Tie shirts free among,
Unto all those whose love was blest
The failest flowers he hung.
Then caught his garments floating hem,
Murmuring bitterly:
king, all the daylight is for them
And hast thou naught for me?"
IAN instantas stayed him there
Helooked upon my lace,
Be'ore his garments fold ofair
Melted from my embrace.
Then, swiftef than a shadow flies
He passed and no flower fell
.But his eyes were as my lost loves eyes,
Hooking last farewell.

Cremationi in Ancient Athens.

Recent excavations at Athens have
added some interesting facts to tho
history OF cremation. The graves in
the Ceramicus or ':potters' quarter"
have been opened, and none OF the
bodies contained in them have been
found to have been burned. Burial
without exception was found to have
been the rule. From the poetry and
other objects found in connection
with these graves the date OF them is
placed at about 700 B. c. This
would show that cremation was intro
duced at Athens, then, at $50 B. c.,
as the tumuli found at Vuroa and
Velanidesa and which date from 600
B. c., are filled with burnt bones AS
showing, however, that burial was
not wholly given up at once at Athens
is the fact that as late as 500 B.. G..
bodies buried and bodies cremated
are found side by side. Boston Jour

describe a Buffalo hug is to tell what

Characteristics of tho chicagoan.

CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-The Chicagoan is
social and has little form" or vainglory
The streets are motley with all manner
of raiment, but men are kinder and more
civil than elsewhere. Doubtless this has
come about from the Babylonish mixture
of tongues and folk. People are in u
hurry at Chicago, but they rarely push
each other rudely. Women crowd OIL

seats, and the men bury their faces deep

The man who does not wear some kind
of a button badge is regarded with sus-
picion as being n member of some very
secret society. A well to do man who

however, is the opposite of Chicago in
temperament. The city is forever agog.
The successful average citizen loves
to sit on his doorstep in summer and
smoke his pipe. He waters his grass;
ne reads his newspaper with fidelity
worthy OF an editor. Occasionally he
sits down and criticises his editor, or,
more often, helps his editor in the

little stock in tho fair, but lets the rich
men Mln that matter, for he knows they
have never yet failed. He is critical
and cynical, for he does not think things

EXEMPT FROM SERVICE.

Judge White Decides That Witnesses in
Attendance at Court Cannot Be Served

Yesterday morning Judge White handed
down an opinion in the case of D. II. Hos
tetter vs. N. Taylor ct al. In this case
commissioner was appointed by the Balti-
more Court to take testimony in an equity
proceeding in which the plaintiff
claimed to have been swindled to
the extent of about 81, 900, 900 BY a certain
corporation. The witnesses resident in this
city were served with notice to appear,
but they held that the service was not good
and refused to appear before the commits
sion. A hearing was held before Judges
White and Magee to test the validity of the
service On this point the opinion of Judge
White says:
The defendants who made this motion set
PENDANTS in a suit pending in the Circuit
Court OF the city of Baltimore, Md, and are
residents of that city: that a commission has
been appointed by said court to take testi-
mony in Pittsburg, and in pursuance of
notice from the Commissioner in Pittsburg
they came to this city March 10, 1892, for the
purpose Of attending the taking of testi-
mony, and while here and on the day fixed
they were served with the writ in this
action.
The opinion then states that witness at
tending court for the trial of a case is privi-
legged from arrest or the service of a writ
while at court and also coming and return

set, yet this did not make any difference
