So through the autumn and winter

Even Lady Fanshawe, who enjoyed
gayety as much a. any one, was almost
astounded. There was no co station TO
her young relatives dissipation; balls,
letes, charade parties, dinner parties,
archery meetings, croquet parties, pic
mics, every variety Of amusement that
il was possible TO imagine, followed
each other in rapid succession. No

only one thing, and that was time and
leisure and thought.

shared her hospitality began to talk
Of her and say that it was sad TO see
one so young giving up her heart and
soul to the pursuit Of pleasure,
Paul Elemyng was the only one who
saw no faults in her; he made all al
lowances. It was but natural, he said
TO himself, that, on suddenly finding
herself possessed Of almost unbounded
wealth, she should want to enjoy it in
her own way.
Spring came round again, and it was
decided that Lady Charnleigh, Ethel
and Lady Fanshawe should go early to
London. The Duchess Of Warminster
had invited Leonie to spend some time
with her in her beautiful villa near
the Thames, and she had joyfully ac-
cepted the invitation.
"The ghost that haunts me at Crown
Leighton will stay there" she said to
herself, 'and I'll be happy again.

His II buke.

Mr.. AbneT jennings was never
known TO say harsh thing to or
about any one. His form of speech
was invariably mild, and exaggerated
statements were viewed by him as
almost as reprehensible as lies Once,
in the spring Of the year, when the
Blueville roads were in a fearful
condition of mud and mire, the team
of a travelling merchant" was stalled
a short distance from Mr. Jennings
house The old man at once brought
out his oxen and went to the ped
dlers assistance.
The team could not be instantly
released even with the aid of the
yoke of oxen, and the peddler, who
was man of high temper and little
self-cOntrol, proceeded to vent his
rage in language which first amazed
and then disguised the equable Mr.
jennings. lie bore it as long as he
thought was necessary and proper
and then unhitched his oxen and

explained to his wife as he walked
into the kitchen on his return, but
he talked so poorly that came off
and left him."
One day he caught some boys rob-
bling his black cherTy-tree, and sur
veyed them for some moments in
speechless disappTObatOn.
"Boys," he said at last, giving the
culprits the sternest glance of which
he was capable, "boys, l think you've
been doin' very poorly"
After administering that stinging
rebuke, he turned to his heels and
walked slowly away to the barn, and
never referred to the matter again.

WANpAnoo MONKEYS.
rhcy Were on the Watch and Discovered a
Hungry Leopard.

| Nhcy were on the Watch ana discovered a
Hungry Leopard.
"A band of WandarOo monkeys
hooted in the distance, and as their
watchfulness IS proverbial, we knew
that there was no leopard at hand, 4"
says writer in Outing. "They came
nearer and nearer, and in time ap-
peared above the cliff. One seldom
has the chance Of observing these
animals in their native state but as
we lay entirely concealed they were
ignorant Of our presence. 1t was
evidently feeding time, though some
seemed to prefer basking on the
heated rocks to scrambling after
lichens and berries. The old men
with huge white whskers kept q
sharp watch from the topmost
branches Of a couple OF trees. The
mothers with their babies, pretty
little things covered with white hair,
were feeding in complete security,
while the unencumbered members OF
the troop ran about everywhere. We
felt sure that sooner or later our
hiding place would be discovered, and
that all our precautions were in vain,
for the cry Of alarm OF one animal is
often recognized by another of diff
terent species. When any monkey
seemed inclined to wander the SEN
tinels uttered deep 'Hoo.oo.hoon
which gathered the band closely.
"All at once one of the sentinels
gave peculiar cry, which had the
effect Of bringing the entire band
around them. Then they listened in
silence The cry was repeated, and
all bounded into the branches of the
biggest trees near by. We thought
we had been discovered, but when
half dozen Of the patriarchs sud
denly rushed down and Looked over
the edge of the rock, grimacing and
barking at something below, we knew
that our patience was to be rewarded.

OF the preclpice nearly caused me to

pulverizati0n, cheaply, of many hard
substances that have heretofore been

dious processes Rock emery mill
stones possess the advantage, it is
asserted, of reducing at once the
hardest rocks. as we'll as softer SUBJ
stances, grinding all to any degree Of
fineness heat does emery no harm,
and one of the remarkable properties
mentioned Of these stones is their
ability to run cool; they also form
the most rapid grinder known, be-
SIDES being us much more durable
than other millstones, as they exceed
them in hardness, and the face of an
emery milestone is never dressed.
Again, they are made to take the
pace of all other millstones without
any changes in the mill, and it is
stated that, wherever other stones
are used, millstones of this descrip
tion will do better work, at less cost,
and last much longer. Sun.

Nrorried one Hundred Years.

The twenty-ffth anniversary of q
marriage is silver wedding, the fif-
tieth is a golden wedding, tho seventy
fifth is diamond wedding, but what is
the one hundredth? An impossible
thing, says the learned editor, when
the question is referred to him. Yet
such wedding is actually reported as
celebrated not long ago in the town Of
Zsombolyl, Hungary, where the vener-
able couple have long been allowed a
pension in recognition of their great
age and their fidelity to each other,
The marriage of this aged pair is duly
and officially recorded as having taken
place in May, 1893, at which time, ac-
cording to the record, they were OF
marriageable age. AS in Hungary at
that time bridegroom must have
reached the age OF 70 and bl ide that
of IS, the pair must now be at least l2O
and 1l5 years old.

Uncle SANS Prisoners.

There a,e now about 1900 individu-
ais, sentenced for violations of thelaws
of the United States, scattered about
in forty odd penitentiaries in various
parts Of the country. The government
sadly needs more prisons. 1t owns at
present only five penal establishments
two penitentiaiies in Washington
State and Utah, and iails at Washing
ton City, Portsmouth, Ark, and Sitka,
Alaska. Besides these, it rents u few
jails in Indian Territory and Okla
homa Territory. The institutions
mentioned being insufficient, Uncle
Sam is obliged to make use oil those
belonging to the States. A bill was
passed by the last Congress establish
ing three federal prisons big enough
to accommodate l,50D guests, but tho
necessary clau,e appropiating money
to build them with was omitted from
the law by accident.

build and sustain a refuge for dis
abled and destitute soldiers of the
so-called confederate states of
America. Although these poor fell

liets of the democratic party for
states rights and the slavery of
laborer, yet they fought desperately
for the lost cause and the states
for which they sacrificed their youth
and opportunities for future, ought
to take care of them in their years
of decline, disease and death. The

the greatest majority in its history
for the establishment Of the Rebe.

ing it to be the political organization
whose legislation is IN favor of the
American workiugman.
Third-That the policy of the repub.
lican party is TO the best interests of
the farmer and stockmen.
Fourth-That its course, being pledg-
ed to protection as a principle, is con-
sistent and in accord with American
institutions.

Down where the buzzards huzz the moon,
And the Dittern sings it's bitter tune,
The great man fumbles an old crows quill,
And prays for strength on the tariff bill.
The waves come up n they thump the
shore,
The gray sea shrieks with a hollow roar,
He hears the noise in the shadows dim;
What are the wild waves saying to him?
What are the wild waves saying? Alas.
How did that bill ever come to pass?
The wild waves question, but answer not.
Save to hint that the party's going to pot.
The crow quill trembles in the great mans
hand,
Dishonor and peridy near him stand,
If he does ore doesn't, it's about the same,
For somebody has got to shoulder the shame
He paws the carpet and champs his bits,
And he gives those sugar senators fits;
They've got him ag'n and they make him
sad,
And he dcubtsi if there's bald Gilead.
He sweats and swears in his home by the
bay,
And wonders why, when the DEVILS to pay,
There's no pitch hot, and the dams, with
will,
The man who invented a tariff bill.
The gray sea shrieks. and the waves bring in
The popgun wreckage and his cuckoo kin,
AID the black crow, sitting above his door.
Croaks and croaks forevermore,
And he hastens away from that dreadful
