OFF THE BATTERY.
Tags and Ferryboats in a Tangle, and
Girl in Red Who Liked Gum.

Girl in Red Who Liked Gum.
A few minutes before noon the other
day tow of twenty-five loaded canal
boats swung brisl1ly around the Battery
from the North river. The column was
formed of four fours and two threes,
and was headed by two big tugs. On
one of the canalboats a girl in vivid
red calico dress and with bare legs
swung in q hammock and chewed gum.
There was a strong ebb tide, so when
the big tugs with their unusually long
tow lines had puffed up the East river
almost to the foot of Wall street and
had slowed up, the twenty-five canal
boats bounded back like balls at the end
of rubber cords, lifting the two lines
dripping from the water.
The line of boats wrapped itself snug
ly across the openings of five ferry slips.
Five ferryboats wanted to get out and
could not. Five ferryboats- Bay
Ridge, Staten Island, South Brooklyn,
Hamilton avenue and Atlantic street
wanted to get in and could not. They
all whistled hoarsely, and the passengers
crowded to the sides of tine boats to see
what was the matter.
Thousands of people on the ten locked
in and locked out ferryboats saw the
red girl in the hammock, but she swung
and chewed unconcernedly.
The river became dotted with tug
boats which wanted to get in other slips,
or which just puffed up along to see the
row. The biggest of the big tugs at the
head of the tow whistled for assistance,
and six tugs glided up alongside of the
canalboats and made fast. Then no
body seemed to know just what was
wanted and deafening lot of whistle
signals were sounded.
The captains of the ten ferryboats be-
gan making impolite remarks to the
captains of the eight tugs; the deck
hands on the ferryboats became pur-
pie in the face with suppressed emo
tious: the deckhands of the canalboats
drowned the screaming whistles with
strange oaths such as are used to exhort
towpath mules, and thousands of de-
layed passengers were bathed in sympa-
thetic perspiration, but that bare legged
girl swung on.
The wharves became lined with idlers,
who gave advice. Policemen appeared.
Other ferryboats, lighters, tenders, an
nexes, transports and more tugs came
up. They all whistled. The delayed
passengers lost their sympathy; the cap
tains ceased to swear for the want of
breath; the deckhands howled hoarsely,
and when everybody was on the verge
of dissolution the canalboats were pushed
up against the wharves where they be-
longed.
The girl in the red calico gown swung
peacefully and chewed her gum in placid
meditation.-New York Sun.

the early morning the workingmen go
down; about $3.50 the clerks and type

GRAINS OF GOLD.
Snar Gins cause great sorrows.

Small sins cause great sorrows.
Time is a file that wears and makes no
noise.
Sarcasm, in general, is the language
of the devil.
To deliberate about useful things, is
the safest delay.
The fountain of the only beauty that
lasts is the heart.
To lie to child is to plant weed in
garden of flowers.
Trouble always runs to meet the man
who goes out to hunt it.
4 doubt is the heaviest thing you can
pick up and try to carry.
The nearer We approach great mel, the
cleale er we See they are men,
The fellow who is always in deep wa
ter is usually shallow himself.
To be truly and really independent, is
to help ourselves by own exertions.
No man prays in earnest who does not
work with just as much earnestness.
The way to qualify yourself to do great
things is 10 be faithful in little ones.
The world was made before some peo-
pie, but to hear them talk you would
never know it.
Loving kindness is greater than laws;
and the charities of life are more than
all ceremonies.
There are people who pray for showers
of blessings who want them to come
without any clouds.
81 fear God, said man of good sense;
land next to Him, fear only the man
who does not fear Him."
A false friend is like shadow on a
dial plate, which appears in fine weather,
but vanishes at the approach of cloud.
1t is a Portuguese saying that those
who always want to be considered right
are as rule in the wrong.

One of the inventions which needs to
to be made is checkrein which can be
operated from the vehicle behind without
the trouble of alighting. Many thirsty
horse is driven past the wayside spring
because his driver Is too lazy to get out
and uncheck him, and it is hardly once
in thousand times that the ascent of a
heavy hill is made easy by allowing the
horse the use of the whole of his spine
instead of two-thirds of it-all he has
when closely refined up. The man who
patents checkrein which can be safely
adjusted from the carriage will make
his fortune and be canonized by the
horses and S. P. c. A.-Kate Fields

ODE TO A roDERn SHIP.

Child of the dismal mine,
Conn act of chilly steel,
Flowing the brinci E1s2
Thou canst not surely feel ~
That sense divine ~. (:
Which, urged by sail and oar. isksi
The good ship felt of yore, 50 /
Constructed, deck to keel, itl
OF Pontic pine.
Then every seasoned plank
That sailed the sea
Rose softly, softly sank,
Riding the waves in buoyant majesty,
And fair white sails,
Tall spars with streamers decked,
Bent to the rising gales,
That with crisp foam the heaving ocean
fecked-
But thee the summer breeze,
The roaring winters blast
That bows the trees,
Move not; thou steamest past :;
In spite of these.
Not as in days of old:
Nor in the sultry hold,
With sullen wheeZe,
Thy furnace fierce is coaled,
And grimy hands thy pulsing pistons grease.

A Summer without Nights.

To the summer visitor in Sweden there
is nothing more striking than the almost
total absence of night. At Stockholm,
the Swedish capital, the sun goes down
few minutes before 10 o'clock and rises
again four hours later dnring a greater
part of the month of June But the four
hours the sun lies hidden in the frozen
north are not hours of darkness-the re-
fraction of his rays as he passes around
the north pole makes midnight as light
as cloudy midday, and enables one to
read the finest print without artificial
light at any time during the might, -

sized brains easily find their proper

distinguish themselves, but they sink
when difiiulties accumulate around them.
Persons with large brains, on the other
hand, do not readily attain their proper
place; common occurrences do not rouse
or call them forth.
