rare instances is reported from

The son was arrested the other day
on the charge Of forging his uncle's
name. Last Wednesday the .sor-

Jail. The shame of it was too
much for him. The next day he
complained of being very unwell,

his room. An examination showed
that, he had died Of broken heart.
His heart was actually ruptnred into
distinct parts. The physician who
made the autopsy said that he had

Passing thoughts.

As the trials of life thicken and
the dreams of other days fade one
by one in the deep vista of dissap-
pointed hope, the heart grows
weary of the struggles, and we be-
gin to realizs our insigniGcance.
Those who have climbed to the pin
nacle of fame, or revelled in lux
ury and wealth, go to the. grave at
last with the poor mendicant who
begs pennies by the wayside, and
like him are soon, forgotten. Cen
eratlons after generations have felt
as we feel, and their fellows were
as active in life as ours are now.
They passed away as vapor, while
nature wore the same aspect Of
beauty as her creator commanded
her to. And SO, likewise shall it
be when we are gone. The heav-
ems will be as bright over opr
graves as they are now around our
path; the world will have the same.
attractions for offsprings yot un-.
born that she had one for ourselves
and that she has now for onr child
rem. Yet little while, and all
this will have happened. The days
will continue to move on, and
laughter and song will be heard in
the very chamber in which we died
and the eyes that mourned for us
will be dried, and will glisten with
Joy, and even our children will
cease. to think of US and will not
remember to lisp our name. Thus
quickly will pass the memory OF.
each life; and how much more
quickly if that life Is not worthy OF
emulation by those who follow u.s.

Gently rendered an important de-
cision as to what constitutes cul;i--

in q case where it was claimed that
the raising of hay crops for two

sufficient and says: "The term cul.

held to mean the tilling Of the soil
by agricultural processes In order
to raise crops; not mere irrigation.
IT is impossible to determine ia
this case whether the hay raised
was the product Of native grasses
or not. If it was, though produc
