According to the British and For,
eign bible society, there is little
chance for circulation of the bible
in Japan. The society says of Japan:
1.-The progress of Christianity seems
to pause before the absorption of
the people in their new political
passions" Some visitors to Japan
say that the trouble is that the
Japanese, eager to receive every
thing of Western civilization, have
welcomed the missionaries of all
sects of Christianity. and o are
greatly puzzled over the rival claims
of different denominations.

WHEN MOLLIE BATTLES THE

When Mollie bathes the baby
lay my boob aside

With deep paternal pride:
Iscan the dimpled body
OF the struggling little ELF
For undeveloped points OF
Resemblance to myself.
When Mollie bathes the baby
She always says to me: -*a<
isn't he just as cunning
And sweet as he can be?
Just see those pretty dimples,
Aren't his eyes a lovely blue?'
And then. you precious darling,
could bite those arms in two.
When Mollie battles the baby
always say to her:
Look out now. don't drop him."
And she answers back. mo. sir!"
Then 1 talk about his rosy cheeks,
The muscles in his arms,
His shapely head, his sturdy legs.
And other manly charms.
When Mollie bathes the baby
The household bends its knee.
And shows him greater Difference
Then ever it shows to me
But I feel no jealous goading,
As they laud him to the skies.
For every one assures me
That he has his fathers eyes.

"Well. my dear. perhaps so. l
own l am stupid" said Mrs. Neville,
who, though the best and kindliest
of women, is certainly in no danger
of setting the Thames afire with her
cleverness. Though l can't see why

He is quite charming, in my opinion,
and so handsome! Then there is
Lord Stretton; you can't tell me that
he does not adore the very ground
you walk on!'
''Oh. Stretton" said Maud, dis
dainfully.
..Dick Penruddock is, of course,
in many ways far preferable" she
says, presently, shifting ground.
HE is quite as rich, and is younger,
and has prettier But,
then, you say you object to Dick,
also"
"No. I don't object to MI. Pen
ruddock," says the girl, with a soft,
slow blush; ''that is not it. You
mistake me, Mimi" (This is the
pet name she gave to Mrs. Neville
when a child.) 81 only mean that
l shall never marry"
"But whv-why?" i~mpatiently.
.'Can you ask me that" returns
she, with a glance full of the liveli-
est %reproach.
"But the thing is not a secret
all the world knows how / adopted
you, and that you are the daughter
of some poor mechanic, dead before
l ever saw you. But they know,
too, that you are the most beautiful
and the most charming girl in tn
town! Yes, you are!" in answer to a
de%precating shake of Miss Neville's
head; land if these men love you,
and choose to overlook such a little
fault. why, then, l cannot SEQ"
ga little fault" repeats she sadly.
Then with a touch of pride, s.Nay it
is no fault at all, but it is a great
misfortune; ana though Stretton-
or-or Mr.. Penruddock may, per-
haps, foolishly wish to marry me,
do you honestly believe their
families would receive me with open
arms? Do you think it at al likely
that Dicks father would be glad to
see him married to a girl without
name? 1t is impossible, Mimi"
IL know not what they think or
say, but | know that if he were my
son l would gladly see him married
to YOU" says Mimi, maintaining her
cause stoutly.
.'That is because you love me, and
because you arc different from all
the rest of the world" says the girl,
gently, looking at her through a
soft mist, that dims the beauty of
her eyes,, and is born of tenderness,
and gratitude, and deep affection.

A Foreigners opinion.

An opinion of the Coxey army by a
foreign-born citizen, written in his own
way, may prove of interest to our
readers. The following letter was re-
ceived today from nelghboring locality.

struction of English may be little

to call those poor men vagabonds. All
of them cannot be vagrants and tlamps.
There mnst be good, honest men among
them, men that have families to take
care of. Editor, it is.very hard for a
man to stand when his child is calling
for bread and he has none to give.
Now, if he is a man at all and is willing
to work, but cannot get any, and he is
too honest to steal, he is going to go to
the spot where the cause lays. Why,
Editor, right in our own county there
are families in very bad fix, if you only

CAN THE SEVERED HEAD THINK ?
It Would Seem Not from These Expert
ments.


It Would Seem Not from These Experi-
ments.
Does the head of decapitated per-
son have any of the sensations of life
after being severed from the body?
You may or may not have thought of
this before; at any rate it is without
doubt the most interesting question in
the whole range of physiology, says
the st. Louis Republic. From the very
nature of such cases we will probably
never know whether there is the least
ray of memory, reflection or real sensi-
bility surviving in the brain of man
after the head falls from the block, but
it is only natural that we should inves-
tigate the matter as fully as the cir
cumstances will permit
Some may remember a curious arti-
Gle printed in the latter part of
1889 entitled s'A Dead Eye That
Winked.'' In it were given the
details of a remarkable expert
ment made by Surgeon Velpeau, the
Paris prison physician, on one DR..
de Ia Pommerais, who suffered death
by the guillotine. Just before his ex-
ecution he arranged with Velpeau that
if the latter would pick up his severed
head, he (Pommerais) would, if it
should be possible for him to do so,
wink three times at the surgeon as a
sign that, although he could not speak,
the faculties of thought, feeling and
sight were still in active operation.
The account gives a picture of the
scene when Surgeon Velpeau grasped
the bleeding head and shouted in the
ear: 'Po1nmerais, can You thrice close
your right eye while the left remains
open?" The stolid surgeon, familiar as
he was with blood-curdling sights. was
almost frozen with horror when he
saw the right lid slowly fall, while the
left eye looked fxedly ut him. ''Againr'
he cried, but the lid only quivered. all
sensibility having left the head for
ever.
The above and similar stories have
excited the minds of investigators and
much attention has been given the
matter during the last five years. DR..
Loye, another Paris savant, has been
at the head of the French experiment.
ers. They have decapitated hundreds
of poor dumb brutes, mostly dogs, and
the net result of their Investigations
seems to be that consciousness disap-
pears Immediately after decapitation.
| In the language of the learned scien-
lists, ''both portions of the animal or
man SO decapitated are instantly put
in a state of rapid asphyxia.'' This
seems altogether likely, but the ques-
| ton now arises: SIS consciousness in
| such cases only suspended and would
it be revived if it were possible to re-
| place the head so that it would occupy
the same physiological position which
| it did before being separated from the
| body?''

The Speech Of C0yey Which Was Not

O0xEY IN THE POLICE COURT
He was Arrested on Charge of
Violation of United States
Statutes.
OxEY IN THE POLICE COURT
what Co1ey would Have Said.

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Coxey took
some pains to give out for publication
the copy of a speech he would have de-
livered but for the interference of the
police. In the speech he takes the
ground that the capitol is the property
of the people and fitting place to
mourn over their dead liberty. Upon
these steps carpets had been spread for
royalty, and the lobbyists of trusts and
corporations have passed unchallenged
on their way to the committee rooms.
The people were there today to remind
congress of its promise of returning
prosperity when the Sherman act would
be repealed; to petition for legislation
that would give employment to c'-ery
man willing to work and bring uni yrsal
prosperity. He protested against the
unnecessary act of usurpation and
tyranny in denying the right OF petition
and assembly.

necorated Dogs.

IN France there exists an order of
merit founded by the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. OF
which the members are dogs who have
distinguished themselves by deeds of
bravery, says the Westminster
Gazette. A tastefully designed
collar of honor is awarded to the
nominees of the order. Among the
animals already decorated in this way
one of the most celebrated is Bacchus,
a large bulldog, whose speciality it is
to stop runaway horses by jumping up
and seizing them by the bride. 1t is
calculated that the Intelligent beast
has already saved the, lives of eight
persons, if not more, in this way.
Pataud, another bulldog, received a
collar in 1887 for saving his mistress
from the attack of footpad, and
Turk, a splendid Newfoundland. has
had similar honor for saving three
young children from drowning on diff
ferent occasions.

MOST BEAUTIFUL OF BIRDS.

The Ouezal of GuatemaIa, Whose Plu-
mage Rivals the Rainbow's Brilliancy.
In the Smithsonian building at Wash
ington is exhibited one particularly
perfect specimen of the most beautiful
bird in the world. While it's colora-
tion is as brilliant as that of any hum
ming bird, its superior size renders it
more attractive to the eye, says the
Star. This is the quezal of Guatemala.
It's plumage vies in brilliancy with
the rainbow and shines with metal
lie luster Until within the last few
years it was unknown to science,
mainly owing to the fact that it is a
hermit among fcathcred creatures, de-
lighting in the silence of deserts. 1t
dwells on mountain heights above
seven thousand feet in elevation. The
quezal was the royal bird of the Az
tees Its breast is brilliant scarlet.
while its green tail attains length
of three feet. Its size is about
equal to a pigeon. Its plumes
were utilized anciently for the
adornment of headdresses and
for the famous feather pictures
of the Mexicans. 1t nestles in holes
in wornl-eaten trees, which it enlarges
with it's bill so as to form comfort
able and roomy residence. The young
are hatched totally naked. 1t is the
hardest of all birds to prepare for
stuffing, because the skin tears like sc
much tissue paper and the feathers are
implanted to SO slight depth that
they readily fall out. A specimen is very
apt to be spoiled by falling against a
branch on being shot. Up to 1860 nat
uralists did not know where the quezal
was to be found. The few specimens
which had fallen into their hands were
obtained from the Indians of Guate
mala, who kept the secret. About that
time, however, Il collector visiting that
country got on the track, went up into
the mountains and shot number o1
the birds It is said that in ancient
times the skins of all birds of this
species that We're killed belonged by
law to the king, and nobody outside o1
the royal family was permitted to wear
the plunas. The quezal belongs to the
family of trogons. This genus includes
forty-six species, thirty-three OF which
are American. All of them are very
beautiful.

nut and bolt works windows were
broken, machinery smashed and the
men driven away. Twenty-Five men
were driven from the Church furniture
works. All the reserve police, includ-

out. Many arrests have been made.
