LIGHT AT EVENTlDE.

On quaint old eupboards and the long used
things
That in the years drift up, glad morning
laps.
Plays with the kittens on the floor and filings
Fierce beams into the hooks where night sill
creeps.
1t falls where Karl and Gretchen, drawn 70
less
BY love than they were fifty years ago,
In rugged peace and wrinkled comeliness,
Sit knee TO knee in lfe's soft afterglow.
Gods blessing on the old romantic heartsl
"ris Ruth's sweet story she is spelling out
To Karl. the while in dreams his mind de-
parts
And Ruth is not the maid he dreams about
lie sees love Graded in the soft blue eyes
OF IA shy maiden, and his own grow dim
As, like homing bird, his fancy flies
Back to the day when Gretchen came to him
And thence on wistful wings his memry
sweeps
Over the years that seem an unmarked plain.
But where his soul within each furrow sleeps,
And ev'ry footmark speaks of joy or pain.
That cradle there are many such; the earth
Has many little crosses on her breast;
The peasant starves and has his hours of mirth
On many fields are soldier sons at rest.
Though Karl may sigh. his gentle sorrow dies
Stillborn upon the threshold of his cot,
And so, as hunger to sweet food, his eyes
Turn to the little maid who shared his lot.
II is the voiceless love of years that speaks
In one long look as Gretchen feels him lay
A hand on hers, and what his spirit seeks
She gives, though KARL" is all she finds &c
say.

BOMBARDED WITH ROCKS.
The Eaect Of Blasting Work In . Flat House
In New York City.

A great ledge of rock forty feet high
fronts the west side OF zth avenue between
l22d and 123d streets. New York city, and
runs westward some 800 feet on the line OF
these streets. The difficulty and cost Of
removing the tons upon tons OF rock has
kept this block vacant may years. All
about It. however. are whole rows OF Hats.
Last June the owner employed Altsru
Brothers. Italian contractors. TO clear the
lots for building purposes and they began
operations about the middle of June with
q gang of fifteen Italian rock men. Dyha-
mite was used In the work. and the tenants
OF the neighboring flats have been fearing q
disaster from the blasting ever since the
work was begun saturday the disaster
came. Shortly after O'Clock a blast was
fired that was heard all over Harlem and
killed two persons instantly, besides inJar-
cept one lived in the 1ve-story double nst
house adjoining the lot. There were twelve
deep drill holes sunk IN the rock. No one
knows how much dynamite was placed in
them. The effect was terrific.
Great masses OF rock weighing seveeal
tons were thrown many feet from the fsce
of the rock from which they were dislodRed
while hundreds OF smaller pieces were htIri-
ed against the wall OF the fiat house ana
crushed their way through into the crowd
ed apartments. Great rents were seen IN
the rear portion OF the side wall. and
through the rents could be seen debris
piled in the rooms on the three lower fioors
After the first glance at the destruction
the blast had caused, the contractors jump
ed into their carriage ana drove awsv.
The foreman OF the laberers also fed. and
took refuge In the basement OF 81 East 1sed
street. He ran away from this hidihg
place before the police reached the scene.
The laborers were not slow TO follow the
example OF their superiors and aed in I'll
directions.

Her Great Speed.
Proposition to Again Put Her in Condition
for Service.

The beard Of naval bureau chiefs is serf-
ously considering the possibility OF refitting
the historic old warship Hartford for ac-
tive service. and she may again take her
place among the ships Of the navy. To
that end Chief Naval Constructor HIGH
born is preparing estimates Of the cost of
putting the veteran in good condition for
Sea service. To make a good serviceable
ship OF her will cost about SEQ, 900. which.
however, is much less than a new ship
would cost. She will require new engines.
new boilers and new decks. The law limit
ing the expenditure on ships of war to 10
per cent of their original cost does not APP
ply to the Hartford, and IL is likely that
the 10000 needed for her repair will be OBJ
tanned. The Hartford. IL again put In COM
mission, will be equipped with light ordnance
and used for general cruising. Commodore
Hichborn says the ship would be specially
valuable in those parts of the world where
the docking facilities are few and costly
Her bottom is covered with copper, and
she would be able TO stand long confinement
IN Pacific waters without docking. This
quality would make her a good ship to keen
at place like Honolulu. and II commits
stoned. she will probably b sent to that i'm
portant port.

The Trial of the Columbia to Take

the Ocean" This interesting event, fraught
with such important consequences to the
future Of the ship. will undoubtedly take
place during the present week, probably
on Wednesday or Thursday. The ship has
just been taken out OF the dock at Phil
adelphia and the naval officers who IN
spected her thoroughly report her in first

measurements were taken of the pitch of
the screws and marks were made by which

blades IL II is deemed advisable.
The First Triple Screw Vessel.
The Columbia, which was originally
known as THE Pirate" is the 6rst triple
screw vessel Of the new navy. In fact
there are not more than half a dozen such
vessels. Of any size. in the world and the
Columbia is the largest and most powerful
81 them all. 1t was thought desirable to
distribute the enormous horse power of the
ship on three shafts instead OF on two, as
tain a propeiiing force Of buzz lccc horse
power. instead of 1850 horse power as
would have been the case IL the twin
screw system, IL Is thought, will prove
more advantageous for cruising purposes
as py using only the single screw at the
stern post for ordinary cruising much
wear and tear may be avoided and much
coal saved. The third screw OF the Column
bia is placed between and below the other
two and fifteen feet further aft The Kais-
erin Augusta. which was one Of the finest
vessels at the naval review, has three pro-
peilers ana there are two or three vessels
