Que Sc alza audaz del inaamado seno
Para mirar al cielo, y silba y ruge,

Arroja celestiales elemeptos,

Para la gran victoria de los buenos,
Sigue el poeta en- su labor, y Sc allan
A la deidad altar al quito temples,

Para la alma beldad, hiia del cielo.
Para si forja el cfclope divine
Aurea fecha, disparala los cielos,
Y es feliz porque We que rauda hiende

A NOVEL SUIT FOR DAMAGES.

FARMER WANTS sNTisFhcrIoN ron CROPS
RUINED BY COKE OVENS.
A case that has been attracting consider
able attention has been on trial during this
week in the Civil court ~ Geensburg. 1t Is
. suit of Adam Robb, a farmer, against
Carnegie Bros. Il Co. Robb owns several
hundred acres of land in the vicinity OF
Larimer. The Carnegics purchased adjacent
land two years ago and on il erected yl'laht
ofcoke ovens. The smoke from these ovens,
Mr.. Robb alleges, injured his crops and his
trees, and he asks for heavy dam ,ses. Ihe
case was tried two years ago and verdict
for about q, 900 was given to the plaintiff.
IT, was taken TO the Supreme court and the
decision of Judge Doty. of this court was
reversed. Now Judge Iongnecker, m Cam
uria, is conducting the case. Dozens OF
witnesses have been heard

and the new WASTES presc.ioe by the
Police Board.
There is nothing extraordinary about
the whistles. They arc nicke! plated,
about three inches long, with chain
attached to fasten them to the coat but
tons of the policeman. A brass reed
inside controls the tone, which in most
of them is not unlike those used by
cyclists.
The clubs are Of grenadllla wood and
13t inches long, incnes thick at the
outer end and tapering to one inch at
the handle.
Each policeman had to pay eighty
cents for his whistle and baton. The
majority OF the bluecoats snitfed con-
temptuously at their new batons, and u
numbtr prophesied that some policeman
in the lower precincts would be 'done
up" before they had carried the new
sticks long.
The new batons and whistles will be
carried for the first time to-day.-New

beside it THIS bell was cast in tine
fourteenth century, but the tower in
which it was hung was burned again and
again, and when it fell about two hun
dred years ago it was broken into pieces.
1t was cast in larger SIZE, and 1t is sal i
that the ladies of VI ,cow in frenzy of
religious enthusiasm threw their jewels
into the metal. aud this rendered it so
imperfect that when it was rung a great
piece broke out OF its side. 10 fell tn
the ground during fire which occurred
about hundred and fifty years ago, and
1t has never been restored. 1t now stands
on a granite pedestal, and it is ms big as
a go1d-sizcd two-story house. 1t Is itty-
hive feet in circuinioicnce, Is two feet
thick, and the piece which has been
broken out OF its side - taller than -
man, ana VOn can walk INTO tnc notc
where this piece was, and you find your
self in q sort of bronze tent. The piece
lies on the ground beside the pedestal,
and though the bel itself Is of dark
green, this piece has been so polished by
the people leaning against 1t that its
edges are AS bright as brass breastpin.
This bell weighs more than 2OO tons,
and it would take 400 good horses to
pull it ii could be loaded on u wagon.
The biggest bell that strikes is IN thi,
tower oil st. Ivan. IL is only half as
large in size as the bell at the foot ot the
tower, and it Is, judge, about twenty
feet high and fifteen feet in diameter.
You could hardly pu. it in the average
cottage parlor, and it has tongue which
weighs hundreds upon hundreds oi
pounds. 1t takes about six nc, to make
this tongue strike the bell, aud ltried to
push it IRON one side OF the bell To the
other, but found that | was not strong
enough to move it.

An international Union to Regulate thu
Value of Silver.
Contrary to expectations, the special corn,
mittee Of the international Monetary Con.
ference on the 2oth>child and other plans
met again at Brussels and discussed the pro-
posal of the Danish delegate Tietgen, who
proposes to constitute an International
Union to fix the relative value OF gold and
silver, based on the average price Of silver
recorded in London, during the year pre-.
ceding the foundation Of the Union.
A committee representing three or five
States is to watch the course of the silver
market. and should the market fall 8 per
cent. below the rate previously fixed, ac,
cording to the average in London for the
previous three pr six months, the commit.
tee may summon the conference to decide
whether there should be a reconase.
The proposal is tantamount to a general
