hereafter. They devote a thought to
the memory OF those who do not lie In
those graves, near home and among
their kindred, who still cherish their
memory, but who, uncofined and un-
knelled, were buried in trenches, or in
but hastily made graves upon the
fields that their sacrifices redeemed to
the Union and to Freedom
For, q few years after the observance
OF this day was begun by the returned
soldiers, they were left to perform
their sad duties almost alone,a unas-
sisted, and scarcely noticed except by
the friends OF those around whose
graves they gathered, but now 1t has
become q national observance, q tribute
to the yslor and the patriotism not
only OF the dead but the living, and,
while the few remaining comrades are
allowed the privilege OF placing the
flowers OF spring upon the graves, the
Women's Relief Corps, many of whom
also made, their sacrifices for their
country I'm those trying times, are proud
to accompany and assist them, while
the Sons OF Veterans and the Daugh-
ters of Veterans stand by TO show their
readiness 70 continue in the good work
of keeping alive the memories Of the
soldiers and the soldiers deeds when
the time, not far distant, shall come,
that the Grand Army OF the Republic
has become so reduced in numbers as
to be no longer able to perform their
share.
In many places the Grand Army
posts are escorted by the local com
panies OF the State militia, who, IL
they are not "eager for Fray" and de-
sirous of an opportunity OF showing
that they, too, are loyal, courageous
and able to endure hardships, would
not be likely to be found wanting in
those qualities, il there should ever be
In their day or generation necessity

almost unconsciously absorb more OF

BRIDAL AND BURIAL.

It was a soldiers bridal day;
His darling stood In robes of gray
To give to him her heart
The soldier wore the army blue,
And vowed his vows OF honor true,
Till @deRth their lives should part"
Above them hung our banner bright:
Each heart was sad, and yet alight
With hope he might not fall.
And that some happy. gala day.
He would return, with her to stay,
When bugles did not call
aHaste TO my rescue!n Freedom cried.
The soldier marched away-he died.
AS white as winter snow
He came again; alas! alas!
They hid his face beneath the grass
Full thirty years ago
Under the pillow where his head
Was lying the dear BRIDE wife spread
her wedding gown of gray.
They found her picture on his breast,
And left IL undisturbed to rest
Till Gods memorial day.
Her brow wears signet of the years;
Her eyes have not forgot the tears
They shed that vanished day;
Her locks have lost youths loneliness;
Their hue Is like her bridal dress.
OF unobtrusive gray.
Time is griers bealer; but she waits
Alone for him who by the gates
Ofheaven records the hours
Till she shall come with love as true
As when he wore the army blue.
Or lay mid funeral flowers

Fish Have No Souls.


The Moslems, like the Jews, were
commanded not to make images OF
anything in heaven or in earth, and
Mohammed added: Therefore, IL We
must make images, make images OF
things which have no souls, such as
IT, ies or plants" His Sunnite followers
have never transgressed this rule, and
their friezes and capitals and raneling
are either in geometrcal patterns, or
are ornamented with symmetrically
twined boughs and leaves.
The Hindu, on the other hand, never
loses an opportunity of introducing
gods, elephants, tigers, horses and
birds-anything living that he can
think of except fish; for fish have nc
souls, and the believer in the transmit
grafton of the spirit eats fish with i'm.
punity. though he would die rather
than eat beef, and has religious scru-
pies with game.--The Century.

cult should be automatically inter
rupted when the dynamo is running
at less than storage speed. This
is accomplished by governor
attached to the dynamo shaft, which
makes and breaks contact in mer-
curry pool at the required speed. An
other form of governor merely regu-
lates the number OF storage cells to

In nearly every town in the North

march together, not now, as they did
so many years ago, to the camp and
the battle field, but to that last camp

whose graves they decorate gave up
their lives, or received wounds and

Forbade Him to Submit.

One OF the most painful trials OF
Kossuth's exile was his inability to be
present at the deathbed Of his mother.
She lived In poverty in Brussels, and
she expressed desire to see her son
once more before she died. The Bel
gian government of that day would not
grant his request to visit her unless he
consented to be accompanied wherever
he went by an officer of police. He
might have consented to this degrad-
ing condition, says one biographer,
for her sake, but no sooner did his
mother hear OF it than she forbade him
to come to her, and she expired In the
last days of 1852, blessing him with her

BETRAYED BY HER TOOTH.

It Caught the Tag of an Imitation Ola.
mond Ring.
A prominent tooth and an imita.
tiOn diamond ring were the two
prime factors that occasiOned bit OF
comedy In a dry goods store, at Third
avenue and Fifty-ninth street, on
Friday afternoon, which ended In
the arrest OF the principal participant
on the charge of larceny, says the
New York Herald.
A little woman, whose gray hair
was the only indication that she was
past middle age, paused at the jew.
elry counter and asked to see some
rings. She was neatly dressed and
appeared to be an honest domestic,
but her manner aroused the suspicion
of Special Detective Oestreicher, who
stopped to watch her.
With furtive glance at the sales
woman she raised her hand quickly
to her mouth, and as she took Ii
away the detective noticed a small
string tag dangling from her lips,
which bore the mark S1.97. She
noticed IT, too, and the detective
says made frantic efforts to draw it
into her mouth. She twisted her
features and tried to reach 1t with
her tongue, but the fine silk string
had looped itself firmly about large
front tooth, and at every moment the
telltale tag executed a lively dance
on her chin.
Her facial contortions were OBJ
served by the clerks, who were con-
vulsed with laughter, and the woman
was about to turn away when the
detective said:
ALLOW me to assist you, madam.
Then he caught the string and drew
an imitation diamond ring out Of
her mouth.
The woman tried to appear indig-
nant at first, and then in a tone Of
injured innocence remarked: "Why,
l must have put 1t in my mouth in a
moment Of abstraction"
Il think you must" replied the
detective in sympathetic tone, as
he led her away to the East Sixty
seventh street station, where several
more stolen articles were found in
her possession.
When arraigned in the Yorkville
court yesterday the woman said her
name was Elizabeth Ryan. She said
she was employed as a domestic in
Long Island City and had come to
the city to make some purchases for
her mistress. Her mistress, however.
will be obliged to furnish $500 bail
before she can again avail herself Of
Elizabeth's valuable services.

The phenomenon known as light.
ming, followed by rolling, rever-
berating report, recognized as thun-
der, Is common to wide zone of the
earth, but it is not generally known
that there are localities where the
vivid flashes and the deafening peals
are incessant. The most notable of
these continuous lightning districts
Is on the eastern coast of the island
of San Domingo, a leading member
of the group of the West Indies. 1t
Is not meant that the lightning Is
here continuous the year round, but
thsA with the commencement of the
rainy season, comes this zig-zag fea-
ture of electric illumination, which
is then continuous day and night
for weeks. The storm center is not
continuously local, but shifts over
considerable area, and, as thunder is
seldom heard over greater distance
than eight miles, and the lightning
In the night will illuminate SO as to
be seen thirty miles, there may be
days In some localities where the
twinkle on the sky is in continuous
succession while the rolling reports
are absent Then, again, come DAYS
and nights when the electric artillery
is piercing In its detonations; and
especially Is this the case when two
separate local cloud centers Join, as
it were, in an electric duel, and, as
sometimes occurs, third participant
appears to add to the elemental war
fare. Then there is blazing sky
with binding vividness and stunning
peals that seem to pin the listener to
the earth. Long before the echoes
can die away come others, until the
auricular mechanism seems hardened
into chaos. -Pittsburg Dispatch.

We who enjoy the blessed fruits of

full justice, ws must never cease to i'm

He Met with Treachery

Robin Hood did not die in conflict OF
any kind. He was advanced In life,
and feeling i'll, he entertained the idea
that bleeding would relieve him. To
this end he went to kinswoman of
his, the prioress OF nunnery. as
women were skilled In surgery in those
days, and more esrecially those of the
religious communities. He was about
81 years old, and 1t Is said that he met

The Oldest Active Doctor in Europe.
DR. Borsy, Of Havre, who cele-
brated the Tooth anniversary of his
birth a few days ago, is said to be the
Oldest practicing physician in Europe.
To correspondent of the Paris
Temps, who asked him on his BIRTH
day regarding the secret of his long,
healthy life, he said: II am opposed
to all regular rules of life-at least, l
do not follow them. My motto is:
OF everything something; of moth
ing, too much Every day, summer
and winter alike, I get up at I
o'clock. l shave myself because I
have no time to wait for the barber,
and then l visit my patients Some
time ago l gave up the use of my
carriage in making my calls, as riding
tired me. go afoot, and it Is only
when the weather Is unusually bad or
when the streets are covered with
snow that make use of the street
car. Even to-day, on my birthday, I
arose at o'clock and made calls un-
til noon. Upon my return 1 ate
some cold meat"
"Do you drink coffee?" asked the
correspondent.
"That drink is my favorite," was
the answer. "When l was in the
colonies l drank often as many as
forty cups a day. You see from this
that coffee is not poisonous, as many
physicians declare. l have always
had an excellent appetite and have
not lost a single tooth"
"Did you ever have genuine sick
ness in your life?"
Il never was SICK" came the re-
ply. IL do not know what rheuma-
tism and hardly what pain is, unless
l have 1t to cure among my patients.
Four years ago lost an eye. 1t was
taken from me by one of my COL
leagues. Against my advice he placed
a leech upon it to cure slight affec-
ton. Eight days later was a one
eyed man."
