WHERE is OHIO7

Where is Ohio, children say?"
The teacher asked her girls one day.
-Four little hands Immediately
Went up. Il know" said Marge-y.
Z" It's in the east" But Susie Guest
Responded 1t is in the west"
"'Tts south" said May; and Helen Forth
Was sure that it was "'way up north"
Now Helen lived in Galveston,
And little May by Lake Huron.
And Margery lived way out west,
While in New York lived Susie Guest.
And so they all we're right that day
In saying where Ohio lay,
Because so much depends you see,
On where the children's homes may be.

TIE COMPASS PLANT.

Petals of Its Metallic Leaves Always
Point to the North.
Among the many remarkable things
In nature there are few more wonder
full than the compass plant of our west
ern plains. This singular plant has
metallic leaves, and it's petals point con
stantly to the north. 1t can be readily
understood, therefore, that these plants
have proved, on numerous occasions,
to be of inestimable benefit to travellers
who have strayed from their camps or
companions and found themselves lost.
A traveller says that, in 1860, while he
was on his way to the Rocky noun
tains by n wagon train, he and some
companions, who had LETT the camp on
hunt for antelope, lost their way,
upon the sudden approach Of the dark
stormy night. They knew that their
train was cncamped about ten miles to
the northwest Of the place where they
were.
The night was as dark as pitch, and
they were beginning to be alarmed,
when one Of the party happened to

mouated and CROPPED about, until at
last one of them found the familiar
leaves of the plant.
Then they were able to tarn their
horses heads in the right direction to-
war1 the camp, which they reached in
about two hours, but not until they
had dismounted several times to feel
among the leaves of their friendly
guide to make sure of their course

TARIFF SCANDALS INQUIRY.
 Testimony About a Conversation n Be-
 tween Senators and M Members Of the
 Sugar Trust.
 WASHINGTON, June 5.-The senate com
 mittee, which is Investigating the alleged
 operations of the Sugar Trust in efforts to
 iD fusnce tariff legislation, resumed its
 sittings to day, and Walter Gsston, a wire
 manufacturer of Wilkesbsrre, Pa, WAS
 be had, while occupying a room at the Ar
 lipgton hotel, overheard a conversation
 between members of the Sugar Trust and
 United States senators with regard to the
 necessity of protec ecting sugar in the tariff bill. MT. Gsston had come to Washington in March in the interest of the tariff on wire, and stopping at the Arlington hotel was assigned to room 3S. The sixth day of that month he spent at the capitol, and, having had a very busy day, had re- tired about o'clock and had slmost i'm mediately fallen asleep. About 10 o'clock he was aroused by talking in the next room, which seemed to be of an animated
 character and was participated in by sev- eral persons, the voices of some of when he recognized. He soon discovered that ! they were discussing the sugar schedule, | and that some of the participants in the | conversation were exceedingly anxious | that duty on refined sugar should bs pro. l vided for. He said also that te had | heard the names of certain senators men. | tioned in the conversation. The converss. | ton related to the sugar schedule, and he heard enough to satisfy him that the Wil. son tariff bill could not pass the senate unless the demands of the eugar trust | were granted.
 On cross-exsminstion Gss.on eaid he knew that there were several senators present, and heard the names of Terrill | and Reed. He said he did not recognize the voice of any senator or of any member of the sugar trust, but he took 1t fo, | granted that representatives of the trus' were there. Neither was he able to tel whether there were any senators in tbe room. He heard the names of senators
 mentioned, aud from the conversation he thought persons in the room were fsmilisl | with the work of the committee engaged
 in preparing the sugar schedule.
