In the bottom Of an old zinc trunk,
I found BY chance to-day,
A pasteboard card, battered by time,
That had long been cast away;
But smiling I took it tenderly up,
And the sunshine, bright up above,
Kissed away Times tears from the in
nocent face
OF the boy I used to love.
Such . frank, young face! Just turned
fifteen
He was when he sent to me
This photo, and scrubbed beneath
the face,
81 am truly yours, J. p"
And nv eyes are full Of foolish tears,
As read the words SO plain
Il Am truly yours'-the years slip back,
I'm little girl again.
Ny school books are heavy. The lad
at my side
Takes them gently OF my arm.
''I'n carry them ALL" he says with q
smile,
sYou are weak and I am strong"
Aud We laugh and are glad as birds In
the air,
That whistle shrill tunes DER our
head;
Loves nrst sweet kiss Is on my cheek
All, me! the years have hed
TO the isles Of woman and manhood
now,
And lovers come at my call;
But msthinks that pictured, boyish face,
Was the truest Of them Ill.
So with reverent hands hide 1t away,
Where no careless eyes may gaze
Ny first true love, the lover true,
OF my earliest girlhood days!

TaE SITUATION OF RICE

The best authorities early in the
year were convinced that the croy
would not exceed 1000. 900 bags,
or half The crop Of the preceding
year. Every evidence a. it has
developed has borne out the correct.
ness Of this estimate.
TIE totai receipts Of rice at New
Orleans to date amount to Just one
half the arrivals up to this time last
year. Tie reported stock in the
country is believed to bs even
smaller than half of last years total
At this time. while the local stock
in first hands is unqueetionably
light compared with what it was
ayear ago. The statistical position,
therefore. points to a very moder-
ate supply Of rice for the remaining
seven months of the season.
So convinced are the principal
holders of rice Of this fact tha q they
are not willing to part with thoir
property At current prices. and con-
fideutly look for IN advance in the
near future. Al current prices,
they feel convinced that there . 10
. margin for = considerable ad-
vance before the importing limits
of equal grades of foreign will be
possible.-N. o. 2icayune.

OLA British Consul Arrested for At
tempting to Learn the Truth.
LONDON, Dec. 2O.-The Anglo Armenian
association has letter from a correspond
ent at Aleppo, Asiatic Turkey which
states that the archbishop of Marasch,
who was confined in the Aleppo Jail, has
disappeared, and the Armenians fear that
he has been hanged. The British consul
at Aleppo has made efforts TO discover his
whereabouts, but has been unsuccessful.
The bishop Of Hadjin and the archbishop
of Ieitun have been condemned to death.
They long have been made victims of in
suit and outrage by the Turkish officials
Father Gavork, of Marash, is also under
sentence of death. Sister Elizabeth and
twenty-five other prisoners from Zeitun
are still retained in Jail, although their
sentence Of three years imprisonment has
expired. The church at Boylan has been
closed, and its priest and fifteen notables
of Boylan are confined in the Aleppo
prison.
The letter says that the Turkish garri-
son at Erzeroum, Irisa, Van, Tigranooerta,
Babert and Moosh, altogether about 600
men, were sent against the Armenians.
The commanders of these troops an
uOhllttu 10 bllc lllhblbhll6s w . bAb VI
dered to put you to the sword for openly
defying the government"
The attack began on Aug. IS. The
Turks were repulsed in the first instance.
The massacre began Sept 3. Those Ar
menians who submitted unconditionally
were bound to stakes and then their limbs
were cut off with saws. In other cases the
victims were disemboweled and their eyes
gouged out. Children were thrown into
burning oil, and women were tortured
and burned to death. The troops plum
dered and burned the churches. Among
those who fell victims to the savagery of
the soldiery were forty priests who were
brutally massacred.
The British consul at Erzeroum was
prevented from going to the scenes Of the
atrocities, on the ground that it was not
safe for any Armenian Che being an Ar
menian) to approach the places where the
troubles had occurred, This did not deter
him from making an attempt to learn the
TRUTH but as he was trying to reach one of
the devastated villages he was arrested.
Among those who witnessed the atroci-
ties was a Spaniard named Ximenes The
Turkish authorities approached him and
offered him large bribes to induce him to
deny in the English papers the truth of the
reports of the outrages. They also sought
to bribe him to go to England for the pur-
pose of delivering lectures on Armenia, in
which he was to dwell upon the contented
condition of the Armenians. Senor Kim
enes rejected the offers made to him.

CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo. Dec 2O.-Rich-
ard Newell, Jr., chief engineer Of the Mid
land Terminus railroad, building from
Divide station into this camp, was shot
and instantly killed by an enraged miner
named Van Houghten, near the Indepen-
dence mine. The right of way of the line
had crossed the miners claim, and an ad-
justment had been arranged which ap-
peared satisfactory to him, but afterwards
he made new demands. In a quarrel over
the matter the shooting occurred.
