Ward /. made at the last meeting of the
CITY government. In 1885 A. L. Perry,
Esq then member of the city govern
ment, appeared before the Legislature then
10 session and had an amendment made to
the city charter which provided that
"neither the mayor nor any member OF the
city council shall during the term for which
he may be elected, be chosen to the office
of assessor, city marshal, chief engineer of
the fire department, collector of taxes,
oyerseer of the poor, street commissioner,
experimenting school committee or
treasurer, with the exception, however, that
the mayor could be chosen as an assessor.
Now the point is made that the term for
which Mr. Cunningham was elected as
alderman was one year, and that by accept
ing that office he became ineligible to hold
any office specified above during that

ONLY A TRAMP.
ThIs Incident Was Actually witnessed b.
the Writer.


He was veritable tramp. His
trousers were spattered with mud,
and both they and his coat were that
nondescript color which only long ex-
posture to the weather can give. The
spattered hat he wore, pulled well
down over his eyes, concealed the
half discouraged, half defiant ex-
preston Of his face. AS he slouched
along in aimless fashion his clumsy,
broken shoes clattered on the pave
ment
Years ago he had recklessly left
home and since then he had only
heard news from the old place once.
That was few days past, when he
had read Of his mothers death in the
papers. He was ashamed to go back
then, though he longed to see her
face once more.
He did not mean to be gone so
long. But he had started out to seek
his fortune, and he had found it.
Only it was not good fortune. All
his worldly possessions now consisted
of nickel, lying in the pocket Of his
vest. Just sufficient to buy a "free
lunch" and he was hungry enough to
spend it, He looked up as he neared
the corner, searching for u favorable
place to invest the coin.
Coming down the avenue toward
him was an old beggar woman. She
hobbled along slowly, leaning on a
cane for the support which her trem-
bling limbs could not give, Her
weak eyes peered anxlously into the
faces Of passers-by ina vain appeal for
help, and her wrinkled hand shook
as she held it out for aims. AS she
reached the corner a cold wind blow
ing through the street made her
SILVER and pull her thin shawl more
closely about her shoulders.
This motion attracted the tramp's
attention, and he glanced at her as
she passed. though she did not look
ut him,
"Poor old soul he mutteled
"thats hard lines" He paused in
his walk, looked at the slowly re-
treating figure, hesitated and turned
back. The woman stared in aston
ishment as he touched her on her
shoulder. Fumbling in the pocket
of his tattered vest he pulled out a
coin. This he placed in her hand
without a word, and not even wait
ing for the fervent "God bless youl"
he shuflled away and was lost to view
in the crowd. New York Press.

StOnehenpP.

Stonehenge is the remains Of a vast
stone circle or place Of worship of an
unknown sect, standing in Salisbury
Plain, about seven miles from the
old city of Salisbury in England. 1t
is generally considered to have been
erected by the Druids, but some an
tiQuarians think it much older,
ascribing it to the Phpnicians, who
are known to have traded with Brit
ons centuries before Christ The
most generally accepted account of
Stonehenge ascribes its erection to
King Merlin about the year 500 A.
ID. in memory Of the 400 Welsh no.
bles murdered by Hengist, the leader
of the Saxons, in 472 A. d. Stone
henge consisted originally Of a circle
about 200 feet in circumference, COM
posed Of thirty upright stones about
10 feet high and feet in diameter,
with Others Of about the same size
placed horizontally upon their tops;
only seventeen uprights and seven
imposts are in place. About nine
feet inside this circle was another
circle, consisting Of forty single up
rights, smaller than those of the
outer circle. Within these circles
was an oval, composed of five pairs
of trilithons (uprights connected by
an impost); and inside of this was a
still smaller oval composed Of nine
teen uprights. In the center of this
was the altar stone, fl teen feet long,
All around is ditch, and barrows,
or burial mounds, cover the country
in all directions. 1t is suggested by
modern students of Rosicrucianism
that Stonehenge was work of the
Rosicrucians or of the flre-worship-
org
