DIED OCTOBER 3, Is9s.
Another hand is beckoning Us.
Another call is given;
And glows once more with Angel steps.
The path which reaches Heaven.
Our young and gentle friend whose smile
Made brighter summer hours,
Amid the frosts of autumn time,
Has left US with the flowers.
There seems shadow on the day,
His smile no longer cheers;
A dimness on the stars of night,
Like eyes that look through tears
Alone unto our Fathers will,
One thought hath reconciled:
That He whose love exceedeth ours,
Has taken home. his child. /.
Fold him, o Father. in Thine arms,
And let him henceforth be
A messenger Of love between
Our human hearts and Thee
On earth we'll miss our darling boy,
His kindness and his love;
May loved ones meet him by and by,
In his radient home above

LAwLoR.s BOLD VOYAGE.
Starting across the Ocean IN a 12-Foot
Canvas Boat.
From the Boston Advertiser.


From the Boston advertiser.
Capt. j. W. Lawlor. the daring small
boat navigator, started on his latest and
riskiest adventure Sunday night. He sailed
from Lincoln wharf at o'clock in q canvas
boat 10 feet long over all for a voyage
across the Atlantic.
The start was not very propittious.
| The boat, which was built out In Miamis-
burg. O., was received by her skipper at
his Chelsea home only on Sunday, and she
was put in the water Sunday. Capt. Law
lor did hot even take a trial trip about the
| harbor before embnrking on his ocean
| voyage. He had no opportunity to test her
| sailing qualities. but got into her for tho
hrst time, and at once started for Ireland.
Enough was seen Of her performance after
the start, however, to give the crowd an
unfavorable opinion Of her as sea boat.
hap the t1rst thing. He had not gone forty
rods from the wharf when his tiny craft col
lided with a rowboat, smashing her bow
spirit. As the captain has two spare spars
and spare pieces Of every kind, he was not
obliged to put back to redt, but he bad to
apply to little steam launch that was puff
ing about the harbor for a tow while he re-
paired his first accident. The launch
promptly gave him line and started the
captain In the direction of Boston light.
Finally he got things adjusted to his salts
faction, and dropping his tow, disappeared
around Jeffries' Point
The boat is a canvas hull. stretched on
the lightest Of ribs, IL feet over
all. 81 feet keel, 4 feet beam,
inches deep amidships and flat
bottomed. 1t is claimed that she cannot
sink or capsize. and she is provided with a
thin brass rocker keel and a shin rubber bag
to be secured at the bottom of the boat dur
ing a gale. to right her in case of a capsize.
She is sloop-rigged, and her maiusail is what
is known as the Bailey rig, which Capt.
Lawlor considers much safer for small boats
than the spirit. Capt. Lawlor intends
crawling along the coast for the first part of
his journey, making st. Johns, n. F., his last
stopping place, and will there replenish his
supplies. The food he carries is chiefly
condensed preparations OF grain, canned
goods. evaporated cream, etc. He expects
TO be able TO carry fifteen gallons of water
| and will need large amount, as much Of
| his food has to be prepared by being dis
solved in water. He carries an air mattress
| to sleep on, an instantaneous camera, with
| which he took a snap shot at the crowd on
| the wharves the first thing after getting
| away from the wharf, number Of giant
crackers to fire salutss with, rockets for
signaling, etc. His first stop was to be
Gloucester. The port Of ultimate destina-
tion is Queenstown.

HOUSE RENTING IN OLD MEXICO
Eccentric Landlords and Their Singu-
lar Requirements.

4dF GNS4 ulESLA6hL5s
City of Merico Letter in the Boston Herald.
In this country, and especially In aud
around this growing tropical capital. the
landlord is a being with whom those of US
must deal who haven't the money to buy a
house. or, having it, don't wish to so invest.
I have often thought that the Mexican
landlord was a unique specimen. AS he
pays little in the way of taxes when the
house is empty, the principal tax being on
the rent Of d house under lease, he is as in
| dependent as the proverbial bristly
Quadruped on the frozen water.
l knew landlord here, once on a time,
who enumerated in his leases every article
in his houses which might be carried off by
a thrifty tenant, such as windows, door
knobs, latcbes, door iambs, stair rails,
doors, etc. When a tenant left his premises
he went around TO see that the aforesaid
door knobs. windows, door jambs, etc,
were in their respective places.
There was another person of the houselet-
| ting percussion knew here, an old lady,
| very, very pious. She had many houses
| and most eccentric requirements regarding
their occupants She was a very good old
| lady, very charming, but trifie odd. Her
houses were to her as precious as If they had
been so many temples of Solomon. Indeed,
don't believe Solomon put any such clauses
INFO MS temple CJnIEacb Win the DlRO priest
as did this lady into her leases.
Requirement No. 1.-The tenant must at
tend mass daily.
Requirement No. 2-No birds allowed on
| the premises.
Requirement No. 3-Dogs, being kept
outside the kingdom of heaven, must not
enter my houses
Requirement No. 4-Tenants must not
| smoke indoors and their visitors must leave
cigars and cigarettes outside.
Requirement No. 5-Tenants must con-
| fess regularly at least once a month excel
lent idea, to prevent mischievous tenants
from pawning doors. door jambs, door
| knobs, hand rails, etc..
1t was difficult for this good woman TO
| secure tenants, and they usually remained
| In her houses no more than fortnight. The
yearly income of this house owner must
| have been somewhat fluctuating, 70 say the
least. Her true place was that Of st. Peter,
the guardian Of heavens gate. At any rate
she would have done well as his understudy.
Often the highest rent is asked for house
ready to tumble down. and, the landlord
being obstinate, has only to eat less and
tighten his belt. and so forego an income
from his property.
