New Castle, reminds me Of sad recol
lection, said an aged resident this
morning "Your reference to the ocean
steamship Manchester, the first steam
vessel to cross the Atlantic and come
into the Delaware, recalls the chilly.
wintry week that she was tied up In the
harbor here. One slushy, wot and foggy
night. somebody on board sent up town
for DR.. G. II. Black. one Of our most
highly.respected citizens aud father Of
our Dr.. j. j. Black and ex-Mayor Black
The elder DR.. Black had some trouble in
boarding the vessel and landing again
and the thorough wetting and exposure
laid him up with an awful cold. He
never recovered and his visit to the then
wonderful Manchester was his last pro-
fessionsl duty"

The Hardest.Worked Animal.

A mole's life is by no means a gen.
tlemanly %sinecure. He has to work
harder for his pittance of earthwt m
than any other animal works for his
daily bread. He is the prototypal
navy. His whole existence is spent
in perpetually raising and removing
large piles of earth by sheer force OF
muscle. In order to sustain such con-
slant toll, and to replace ard repair
the u ed-up tissue, the mole requires
to be always eating. His appetite is
voracious. He WORKS like a horse and
eats like an elephant. Throughout his
waking hours he is engaged in pushing
aside earth and scurrying after worms
in all his galleries and tunnels with
great diligence.
The labOrer, OF course, is worthy of
his hire. Such c~easeless activity can
only be kept up by equally ceaseless
feeding, and 80 the mole's existence is
n of long, savage alterations OF Ia
Dor and ban quoting. His heart, lungs
and muscles are working at such a rate
that If he goes without food for half a
day he starves of hamilton. He is a
high-pressure engine. His drinking
is like his eating. i%mmoderate in all
things, he must have his liquor much

his tunneled ground and catches water
in them to supply his needs at frequent
intervals.
He doesn't believe in the early-clos-
Ing movement. Day and night alike
he drinks every few hours, for day and
night are all alike to him he works
and rests by turns, after the fashion of
the navvies who are often employed in
digging tunnels, or measures his time
by watching, as is the way of sailors.

~ grasping in it's powerful talons a
large.si7ed ferret as it's prey. The
animal was fighting frantically for its
