Trout pnmned Iyp.

G. d. Brooke, who lives half mile
or 80 east OF Oak park, has fine trout
stream running through his land. A
couple Of days ago his pump threw out
q trout several inches long, and Mr..
Brooke thinks he could have lots Of fun
bohbing for trout II he had an open
well reaching down to the trout stream
that flows beneath that locality.
There can be no doubt that b subter-
ranean river Of considerable volume
runs through that gravel section, for Q
few years ago w, L. Willis, who lived
In the same neighborhood that Mr..
Brooke does, pumped up number OF
mountain trout. This stream seems to
run down toward the Costumes, as trout
OF good size have been taken from pumps
at Sheldon, many miles south Of here.
This stream probably comes from Lake
Tahoe, that being the nearest mountain
lake Of sufficient capacity to keep up the
supply that is known to exist beneath
the surface In this vicinity, Scientists
have long been Of the belief that there d
subterranean outlet to Lake Tahoe
and as none other has been discovered
1t is reasonable to suppose that this may
be 1t. That It is not mere pond, with
out source or exit, Is evident from the
fact that the trout that have been pumped
up were without the peculiarities that
distinguish hshes taken from under
ground reservoirs or the waters Of deer
caverns, and evidently had not long been
on the journey to this point =

The average barber is a pretty cheeky
person, but 1t Is seldom that he has the
assurance to deliberately make use Of q
customers head and face, to say nothing
Of time, to further his selfish ends. A
good natured man on whose sparsely
fringed head silk skullcap sits with
appropriate grace took his seat in bar
ber's chair the other day for "a hair
trim and shave There were four
BARRIERS at work in the shop and Just
four customers. The artist IN whose
care the good natured man found him
self did his work in a very satisfactory
manner. He handled the scissors deftly
and proved to be thorough master
Of keen edged razor. After the bay
rum, the powder and the brilliantine
had been successfully administered the
barber unpinned the small sheet in
which he had wrapped his customer,
and was just ON the point Of removing
it when his eye caught sight OF a man
In the doorway of the shop. The new
conner was one of those puffy, red faced
| persons such rs NO barber Hikes TO toucii.
This cheeky barber therefore pressed
| significantly ON the shoulder of his good
natured customer, repinned the sheet,
took out his scissors and razor and dill
gently went through the motions OF
trimming the hair and beard. Then he
applied more bay rum and powder and
fused about until one of the other
chairs was vacated and the red faced
man had actually taken possession Of it.
Then with much ceremony and loud
call for brush herel" he dismissed his
good natured customer with smile and
just the suggestion of q wink.-New

ceiving that these had lost color from
lack of air and light, Durande had them
changed for garlands Of Sevres and
bisque of the costliest character, and
thus the urn stood peacefully In this
calm retreat.
Two years of widowhood heightened
TO three. and Durande took unto himself
second wife. Why, ne couldn't have
told You. Certainly 1t was not case Of
desperate love, though the new Mime.
Durande was q charming woman.
No, he had but one excuse for reflling
the empty niche in his life-Mme. Du-
rande the second was exceedingly like
Mime. Durande the first, with one ex-
ception-she was jealous. A jealousy
that caused her to look with suspicion
on every one, word or gesture, and the
knowledge that he still retained tender
memories Of the dead would have caused
her tempestuous anger.
Durande no longer dayed to keep the
urn in a conspicuous place. It was
quietly and secretly third time re-
moved from ats quarters and xeverently
stored in spare room in the mansarde.
Matters grew better as time wore on.
Peace and happiness reigned with the
young couple, and more than once Du-
rande, in this atmosphere Of renewed
content, was on the verge of unbosoming
himself and confiding to his wife the
mystery OF the urn. Alasi his courage
always failed him.
In due time son was born to the
house of Durande, and Nine. Durande
found 1t necessary to clear out and use
the room where the urn lay forgotten.
AS for Durande himself, the Joy OF q
new made father dissipated all remorse
In his heart, and to celebrate the chris
tening with due pomp and splendor In
vitations were sent far and wide for a
magnificent dinner.

Professor Gallon, illustrating the
strong likeness which often exists be-
tween members of the same family, re-
ports the following facts:
"One boy sometimes spoke to himself
In looking glass, thinking that he was
talking to his brother. A little girl
whose mother and aunt were twins
often called her aunt mother and her
mother 'auntie.' so much alike were
those ladies"

The latest improvement in
corsets is neat enough to have
/ been made by a woman; it is
loops of corset lace instead of
metal eyelets.
Eyelets cut the laces the
loops don't.
Eyelets rust /; the loops
don't.
Eyelets make the lacing
show through thin dresses /;
the loops don't.
We call the loops soft eye
lets; but they are tough
they won't wear out in the
life of a corset.
Soft eyelets are used in the
Ball and Kabo corsets, which
are sold in most of the stores
in this way: you pick out
what you think you want and
wear it two or three weeks !;
if not right you return it and
get your money back; and, if
a soft-eyelet corset-either
the Ball or the Kabo--fails in
a year. in any part but the
stecls, you get your money
back.

LUNCH IN The FIELDS.

Blue sky and sunshine and noontide.
And rest from the reaping, :
And all in the wheat ears the south wind
Its fragrances sweeping.
White Is the bread that the master
Shall have for the taking;
Coarse Is the loaf that their hunger
Finds sweet in the breaking.
Golden the vase and the fiagon
His red wine is splitting;
Rude Is the cup for their drinking,
The flask for their filing.
His Is the cool and the shadow,
The gold and the guerdon;
Theirs Is the fierce dew OF labor,
The heat and the burden.
Yet while the great sky gives blessing,
The wide summer weather,
No odds OF fate are they asking

Taking a Steamboat around the Horn.

Taking Steamboat Around the Horn.
Captain John Thompson, master of
the steamboat Cumberland, Internation-
al line, relates remarkable incident of
Names early contributions to the Pa
cifio coast. Shortly following the gold
fever of 1849, in the years 1861, the
steamship 8. b. Wheeler, sidewheel
wooden craft of medium tonnage, was
built at Eastport Farther up the st.
Croix, where the towns of Calais, Me-,
and st. Stephens, N. B., stood on oppo-
site sides of the river, was built the bark
Fannie. The Fannie was constructed
with q detachable stern, this part being
secured by screwbolts, and after COM
pietion the hull was towed to PASSPORT,
Thompson forming one Of the crew OF
tow.
At PASSPORT the stern was removed
and the craft sunk While submerged
the steamboat was fioated in; then the
Fannie was raised, the stern secured, her
hold freed from water, the steamboat
steadicd by ballast and freight, the
masts of the bark stepped, two OF them
passing directly through the steamboat,
her rigging and sails supplied, and out
of the Passamaquoddy she sailed around
the Horn to San Francisco. Passage
rates to California were high in those
days, and the cabin of the steamboat
afforded extra facilities.
The Fannie arrived safely in Califor-
MIA, where the same plan Of subnerging
liberated The RtsambQat and ed for many

A Child in an Eagles Claws.

A dispatch from Ration, New Mexico.
to the New York Herald says: A party |
of tourists witnessed a strange sight near
this place few DAYS ago. Late in the
afternoon, while going by a little house
near the road, they heard the frantic
screams of a woman. Several OF the men
Fan 10 the house and found her standing
in side door screaming, my Child! my
child!,' and pointing to the barn. on the
top of which sat a big bald eagle with a
child about one year old in its talons.
Before any of the party could shoot
the bird the noise had frightened him,
and, picking up the child, he tapped his
enormous wings and started away. The
weight of the child, however, was almost
too much and it seemed impossible for
him to rise more than fifty feet above
the ground Mr.. Roberts in the party
had rifle, but feared to shoot, knowing
that if the bird was killed the boy would
fall to the ground and be dashed to
pieces.
The half crazed mother and the party
of ,urists, with wild excitement, ran
along, keeping as near the eagle as posi-
ble At last the mother implored MI:
Roberts to shoot the bird. Thinking
the boys death was almost q certainty
any event, Mr. Roberts took careful
aim and fired. The eagle gave Il scream
and began beating the air viciousiy with

falcons. 1t came down slowly, circulating
about, lower and lower each time, and
at last reached the ground. The mother
rushed at her child, but the agile began
to fight with beak and wing, and it was
not until it had been killed with the
butt of the rifle that the child was re-
leased. The talons of the eagle had
gotten well tied up in its clothes and
this had saved the boys life He was
black and blue in many places from

Improvement. It's readers are aware that it is
an excellent newspaper every day in the year.
and that year by year it becomes better one
1t is clean newspaper. for it respects itself and
its readers it is trustworthy one, for after

The news reports and editorial discussions of
THE TIMES will have an unusual interest during

Men of all parties testify to the unequaled work
of THE TIMES in the cause of Tariff Reform, the
issue upon which the fight for the Presidency is
to be made. No newspaper in the:country pre-
sents to the minds of the voter Or the campaign
speaker such an abundance of arguments and

a wel-nigh indispensable exposition Of the prin-

THE TIMES prints great deal of information
and discussion upon topics of special interest
to women; it's department of literary news and
criticism is notably full and valuable it pays
much attention to the building ur and progress
of the new Navy, and to all matters of news
and opinion on naval subjects; and it concerns
itself to tell what is going on in the domain of
art, of science, OF religion and education.
