THE FIRST STRIKE ON RECORD.
--Livy, in his famous book, 1.-The
Annals" TX 30, relates in the fol-
lowing suggestive words the story
of singular strike which occurred
at Rome in the year 200 D. c., and
was probably the first strike ever
known:
That year occurred an event lit
tie worthy Of being related, and
which | would pass in silence had
it not appeared as involving rcligi-
on. The flute players, dissatisfied
because the latest censors had for
hidden them to take part in the
banquet in Jupiter's Temple ac-
cording to the ancient custom, with
drew. everyone of them to Thur,
so that nobody was left at Rome to
play during che sacrifices, This
incident shocked the religious SEN
timent Of the Senate, and the Sem
ators sent messengers TO invite the
inhabitants Of Thur to make every
effort in order that the players
should be restored to the Romans.
The Tiburtines, having promised
not to neglect anything necessary
for that purpose, caused the flute
players to come to the place where
the Senate met and exhorted them
to 60 back to Rome. Seeing that
they could not prevail upon them
to do so, they employed strata
gem in keeping with their character.
On day of festival, under the
pretext that music would increase
tho JOY OF the feast, every citizen
invited the flute players individual
ly to his house, and wine, of which
people of that profession usually
fond, was given to them in such
quantities that they fell into deep
sleep. They were then thrown into
wagons and transported to Rome.
They only became aware of what
happened on the day after, when
dawn surprised them laying on the
carts in the forum. A large crowd
had assembled, and they were in
duced to promise that they would
remain in Rome. The right of at
tending the banqucts was restored
to flute piayers.-N. Y. Tribune.

been shrouded in impenetrable
shades, or struck ont of existence
tho darkness could not have been
more complete. A sheet of white
paper held within 4 few inches ot
the eyes was equally invisible with
the blacklist velyet.'
Many theories were formed and
many thought the blackness to be
supernatural, but these wero gen.
orally the superstitious and uned-
ucated.
A peculiar feature Of the phe-
nomenon was the substance which
fell in the rain. This resembled
charred wood or burnt leaves. and
gave an ordor like SCOT from d
chimney. This lay on the surface
of the ponds and streams, and was
particularly noticeable of the Mer-
rimac river, where it gathered along
the banks for several miles to the
depth of several inches.
Whatever the theories may be, we
have very little absolute knowledge
Of the cause of the remarkable day,
and as Herschel says: "The dark
day in Northern America was one
of the remarkable phenomena of
nature which will always be read of
with interest, but which philosophy
is at loss to explain"
The darkness was most intense in
Essex county, Mass, lower New
Hampshire and the eastern part of
Maine. In Rhode Island and Con-
necticut the darkness was not SO
great, while in New Jersey unusual
clouds were observed, but the dark
ness was hardly noticeable, and in
Southern Pennsylvania nothing un-
common was noticed. = Boston

SAVING Ice BILLs.-.'The a.
mount of ice | wasted before
learned to take care of it was some.
thing amazing" said a young house
keeper. "I started in with the no.
tion that the ice had to melt about
so fast anyhow, and that whatever
saw fit to do with it would make no
particular difference, therefore / let
il go TO waste and paid ice bills that
almost took my breath away. One
day an old fellow gave me some
points. He showed me that ice has
grain and how to saw part way
into large cake, then with ham
mer and any pointed instrument
crack off the piece the size re-
quired.
"The ice man brings fifty pounds
Of ice twice a week. / put it into
large cloth, around which are
wrapped some pieces of felt and a
blanket. The porcelain tank in the
ice-box is about 1Ox12 inches in
size, and into this ] put a piece of
ice every morning, taking care to
keep the rest well covered. l find
this all that is necessary, and am
saved the trouble of looking after q
large ice-box, than which l imagine
nothing more taxing. The little
box has porcelain tank with a
faucet from which the water is
drawn as it melts. find by the
way, that this water; carefully
stained through thick cloth makes
the most luxurious article for nv
toilet. 1t is pure soft water and
all the year round | use it in pre-
ference to any other. Utilizing
this sort of thing is in my mind a.
mong the fine points of housckeep-
ing, and / often wonder that more
women do not study the little IFS
and auds of everyday life and learn
TO turn to account everything that
comes in their way"

PLAN OF GARDEN.

rich Pansies do best with northern
exposure. For those who have more
time l will give diagram and list of
flowers that 1 once saw, which was the
admiration of all who beheld it. Stran-
gers frequently stopped and came in
for n nearer view. In the center of q
Greek cross was a pole perhaps eight
feet high, on the top Of which was
nailed a board circular in form and
some fifteen inches in diameter; nails
were driven about the board about two
inches apart. Cypress red and white
were planted in a circle just inside the
center square and train ed upon strings
to the top OF the pole. In bed No. 3
were crimson verbenas; No. 8, white
candytuft, No 4, purple abronia; No.
5, white verbenas; No. 6, balsams; No.

No. 10, nasturtiums, two last trained
upon fan shaped support. In each of
the four corners were dahlias
From II to Is were sweet peas. two
rows on the outside, inside were pan
sizes; Is to IA were snap dragons; IA to
10 were phlox; 10 to Is sweet peas out
side. single portulacca inside; 10 to II,
whitlavia and candytuft; Is to -,
dwarf nasturtiuns In all the beds
except the central cross there were
various colors of each variety. The
whole garden was blaze of beauty
from June till after heavy frosts, and
many hearts were gladdened by the
lovely bouquets gathered from it daily.
The seeds for this garden cost one dol
lar, and the work was all done by a
busy housekeeper, except one half day
in making the beds, when she induced
John to use his strength in moving the
soil and edging the beds with boards.
