A success in England, Australia. and
thus far in America, is Killarney on the
Rhine, a romantic melo-drama, intro
ducing and entwining the noble hearted
Irish and German in everlasting bonds
OF friendship. II is replete with stirring
situations, startling climaxes, aud full Of
Irish wit German comedy, Irish
and German songs, dances, &c.
The Scenic effects are novel and
realistic. The play is different from
a. other dramas in which the
Douton and Celt are introduced, and
free from the hacSneyed eviction bust
ness and other caricatures of Irish
peasant life that would lead the auditor
To set down noble hearted people as a
lot of besotted drunkards. seeking
quarrels FOR the love of crime, aud mur
dering people from behind hedges and
thiekets. lt will be given at the Acad-
envy Of Music, three nights, beginning

Why He Paid Him Attention.

81 was coming west over the Wabash
the other day and had for fellow passen-
gers a Missouri stock raiser, his wife
and Boston exquisite deeply enamored
of his own shape" said o. N. Hapgood
at the Lindell. 1.-The Missourian was a
big, burly fellow, with four days
growth of beard and the tan of forty
summers on his face, but his wife was
young and very pretty. The Boston ir-
resistible took a seat facing her, and
strove in various way to attract her at
tention. The husband caught on to his
capers, and bought copy of an illus
trated humorous paper. which he handed
him. This amused him for time, but
he soon resumed his occupation of star
ing at the lady. Then the husband sent
him the morning paper. He read the
baseball news through, readjusted his
cravat and resumed his old tactics.
1.-The Missourian then invited him into
the smoker to enjoy Key West with
him. As they pulled the fragrant weeds
the exquisite's curiosity cropped out.
He was eager to know if he had mashed
the entire family. 4 say, he began, 4
cawn't see why you show me SO much
attention, dontcherknow. You must like
me pretty well for new acquaintance.
Like you! blurted the Missourian.
You blankety blanked tallow faced
dudel find it cheaper to buy baseball
literature and cigars to amuse you than
to unscrew your neck for gawping at
my wife. st. Louis Globe Democrat

Bright Old Men i'm Essex County,

Essex county, Mass, has been noted
not only for its legal lights like Rufus
Choate, Caleb Gushing, Judge Story
aud others, but also for its deputy
sheriffs, some of whom have served
many years.
OF one of these men, Daniel Potter,
many amusing stories have been told.
At one time he entered a newspaper
office in Salem, and addressing the only
scribe who was in sight said:
II thought l would tell You that to-
morrow shall go where 1 never went
before and can never go again"
The scribe, knowing his caller,
promptly "gave it up" and then Mr..
Potter said:
sit is into my eightieth yearr
Some years ago these old deputies had
a gathering at the home of a certain one
of their number in Gloucester. While
they were roaming about the house the
host called the attention of his guests to
an old clock, a great favorite of his.
He told his friends of his great attach
ment to this ancient timepiece and grew
quite pathetic at certain points in his
remarks, which he brdsight to close
by saying in a voice full of emotion:
"Gentlemen, l have wound up that
clock every night for more than forty
years."
He had evidently made an impression
on his visitors, when one old deputy.
who had been carefully examining the
clock, turned the tide of feeling evoked
by the story by saying dryly:
"Well, 1 always did think you were
something of an idiot! That's an eight
day clock!-Youth's Companion.

Some Old Newspapers.

The first Dutch newspaper, which is
still continued under the name of the
HARLEM Courant, Is dated Jan. s, 1856.
1t was then called De Weecketycke
Courante van Europa and contained two
folio pages of news. The first Russian
newspaper was published in 1903. Peter
the Great not only took part personally
in its editorial composition, but in cor
recting proofs, as appears from sheets
still in existence, in which are marks
and alterations in his own hand. There
are two complete copies of the first
years edition of this paper in the i'm
perial library of st. Petersburg. The
first newspaper established in North
America was the Boston Newsletter,
commenced April "a, 1704. 1t was half
sheet of paper, 8 by 12 inches, and
having two columns on page. 1t sur
vived for seventy-two years and advo-
Gated the policy of the British govern
ment at the outbreak of the Revolution.
None of these newspapers ever said
anything about baseball, but they make
very interesting reading these days
nevertheless, and If you ever come across
any Of them in your cellar, Or unde.
your parlor carpet, or indeed anywhere,
you will be very wise person if you
take the best possible care of your find,
for single copy of any one of these pa
pers is worth quite hundred times the
price of copy of today's paper, or to-
morrow's either, for that matter.-Har-
per's Young People.

Religious Differences.

In the greater concerns of life there
are wonderful illustrations of the con-
fiicts of opinions. There are something
over 1900, 0,000,0 900 of human beings in
the world. Among these are six va
rieties of religious belief; three of these
are said by one class to be false, and by
others three are said to be the true re-
ligion. And yet every religionist, every
sectarian claims that he and she alone
are right. What our Chinese neighbors
say is ''true" we say is "false." We call
them "heathens"-they class us as tout
side barbarians."
What we English speaking people
think is the right and the true religion
is in a startling minority in human be-
lief or religious creditor there are
only some $50, 100000 Christians in all
the world. There are some 6.O00, 900
Jews, and they have clung with singular
persistency in all ages to their religious
belief; it is seldom Jew renounces his
faith; it Is more seldom that Chris
tian embraces Judaism. There are
more than 100000, 900 people who are
pagans and Mohammedans.- Detroit

The city is relic of the past. 1t is
walled the same as it was in the time of
Confucius. 1t has no sewers whatever.
The streets vary from two to six feet in
width; no wheeled vehicle can use
them. An equestrian would experience
great difficulty in turning a corner.
Here and there is an open space or
plaza, dug out so as to be huge open
cesspool; into it the streets discharge
their filth.-Cor. Practitioner.

scarfs That Demand a Pin.

The scarfpin should always be worn
with the fiat, madeup scarf. There is
a place for its insertion, and by seeming
to hold it together it attains a utilita-
rian phase, in that it is an aid in gloss
ing over the percentage of madeup sug,
gestiveness that is always more or less
associated with the initiative article.
The madeup fiat or puff scarf, if worn
without a scarfpin, discloses its arti-
ficiaIity in all the badness of its me-
chanical inferiority. 1t is a curious
paradox in the fashions, therefore, that
the scarfing that does not actually need
the scarfpin in reality requires it most
Of all.

INTERPRETATION.

All that the summer has said To me
In the song of the rose when her leaves IN
fold,
In the breath of the lily with heart of gold
In the Groom OF the birds In the linden tree
All that the summer has sung and said
Since the violet died on the breast of Mag.
And the rose in the lap Of June waxed red
cannot sing or say.
There's a sound in the grass that grows under
my feet.
There's tremor of music in moss and fern
And the myriad tongues of the forest burn
With a rapturous symphony, passing sweet
II sings in the heart and ii signs in the breast
Ii throbs in the thought like an ancient rune
But it dies on the lips in a lost refrain
Ere the voice can find the tune
II cannot be said and 1t cannot be sung.
Yet 1t swells like a tide in the heart OF love
Though soft as the Groom OF the broodins
dove
The speech of the universal tongue
1t cannot be sung and it cannot be said
But life may be lived with so fine grace
That the music of life Is interpreted
In the lines of wrinkled face.

wbv Rolled Water Freezes Easily

Water which is hot of course cannot
freeze until it has parted with its heat;
but water that has been boiled will,
other things being equal, freeze sooner
than water which has not been boiled.
A slight disturbance Of water disposes
it to freeze more rapidly, and this is the
cause which accelerates the freezing of
boiled water. The water that has been
boiled has lost the air naturally con-
tanned in it, which on exposure to the
atmosphere it begins again to attract
and absorb. During this process of ab-
sorption a motion is necessarily pro-
duced among its particles, slight GER
tainly and imperceptible, yet probably
sufficient to accelerate its congelation.
In unboiled water this disturbance does
not exist; indeed water when kept per-
fectly still can be reduced several de-
grees below the freezing point without
its becoming ice.-Brooklyn Eagle.

you sometimes run so close 10 bottom
less chasms that you could drop your

was an old friend of mine and gave me
permission to ride over the road on the
engine of the lightning express. The
engineer did not appear TO fancy my

We were behind time, the night was

storm was raging. The engineer was
way he rushed around those curves and
across canyons was enough to make a
mans hair turn gray.
1.-THE peculiar thing about these noun
tain engines is that they do not take
curve like any other vehicle. They go
plunging straight ahead until you feel
sure that they are clear of the track and
suspended in midair, and then shoot
around and leave you to wonder by what
miracle you have been saved. The
trucks take the curve in the orthodox
manner, but the superstructure is SO ar
ranged that it consumes more time in
making the turn. With the lightning
playing about the mountain peaks and
half disclosing the frightful gorges and
swollen torrents, the great iron leviathan

A Clever Woman.

A lady of fine artistic taste has dis
covered that at church parade her
prayer book, by its incongruous color,
entirely ruined the effect of carefully
conceived costume. 1t struck discord
in an otherwise perfectly harmonious
dress. This has been remedied by hav-
ing a cover to her prayer book which
shall be perfectly in accord with the
leading tone of her garments. The
prayer book cover will henceforth re-
ceive as attentive consideration as the
bonnet, the gloves and the sunshade,
and no jarring note of color will be In
troduced by means of volume bound
in blue velvet or in scarlet moro Geo.
