my mortal remains hev bin laid
away
And there Mrs Gallup, who had
gradually been working up TO 1t, broke
down and began to sob and thrust the
end of her red nose into the mouth of
the bottle in her hand. The putting on
of the hinge was a trifiing matter, and
Mr.. Gallup had finished and was ready
to tackle the rain barrel when Mrs.
Gallup broke down. He walked away
leaving her in tears, but she followed
after and sat on the washbench to con-
tinue:
IF 1 could hev lived couple OF
weeks longer, could hev put up lot
of crab-apple preserves and made a jar
of tomater sass, but the Lord knows
best. Shall you break down at the
funeral, Samuel, or only shed few
tears and heave few signs? 1t won't
make any difference to me, but follss'll
be watchin' you, you know. If you
burst out cryin' you'll git more sym
pathy and they'll say you thought
more Of me. Hev you decided ON
about how much you'll pay fur my
& rave-stun, Samuel?"
Mr.. Gallup had picked rusty iron
hoop up out of the grass and was busy
driving it over the barrel, and even IL
he heard her he did not think best to
answer.
There s-there's another thing 1
wanted to talk about, said Mrs. Gallup,
as she wiped her eyes and cholsed back
her sobs. 1--WE bin dyein' my hair fur
the last five years. If they don't hev
hair dye up in Heaven don't know
what I'm goin' to do. An what about
night caps, Samuel? I've worn one fur
the last twenty years, and If they don't
supply 'em to angels shall have the
earache as sure's you're born. You are

THE STOLEN HORSE.
Affectionately Remembers Its Master
After Twenty Years Absence.

Afectionately Remembers Its Master
After Twenty Years Absence.
There lived in Auburn, n. Y, some
sixty years ago, q clergyman, an init
mate friend of my grandmother. This
gentleman owned an exceedingly beau
tiful, fleet and graceful sorrel mare,
which bore the classic name of Diana.
She was the admiration of the town
and the pride of the clergyman's fam
ily. But, alas! one dark and stormy
night the barn was boldly entered, and
the beautiful Diana stolen from her
stall. All efforts to discover the clever
thief, though long and perseveringly
continued, were useless. At last the
family sorrowing abandoned hope; an
other, but inferior, horse was pur-
chased, to which, by the way, the chill
dren would not allow any occupancy OF
the old stall of their pet, for that, with
everything else that belonged to her,
they insisted upon keeping sacred to
her memory.
Nearly twenty years had passed, the
clergyman's hair had grown white with
age, and his children had become young
men and women, when he CHANGED one
autumn to be called on business to q
remote part of the state. Having an
easy chaisc, he made the trip, as not
uncommon in those days, by private
conveyance. He was riding slowly
along a winding road on the third
morning of his journey, when his at
tention was forced from the beauties

CIVILIZATION. pepopulatlng Enect.

A notable instance Of the whitening
effect upon the western Indians of the
kind of civilization with which they
come in contact is in the case of tho
Rogue river Indians of Oregon. In
1859, when the first white men APP
peared among them, there were 500
members of the tribe. In November,
1854, one-fourth of them had died, and
their numbers have gradually decreased
until, according to the last census made
by the Indian agent year ago, there
were but fifty-four members of the

A Hon That Kills Mice.

Councilman Samuel Beii, horse i'm
porter Of Wooster, o., has a Minorca
pullet that takes as much delight in
catching rats and mice as cat or dog.
The hen was raised with litter Of fox
terriers, and from being associated
constantly with the dogs has acquired
their hatred for the rodents. She will
tackle the largest kind, and, while she
has never killed a large one, will keep
them ut bay until the dgs come to her
relief. She has killed many half
grown ones. She seems to know that
the big rats are too much for her. II

A Hand Worked Device Designed for Use
In tho Far West.
Over wide stretches OF land in Colo
rudo, Wyoming and other western
states there is practically no vegetation
but sage brush" and this must be re-
moved before any other steps can be
taken toward filling such of this soil
as may prove to be arabic. Machines
for uprooting the sage, worked by
horse power, have been devised; but
Thomas Widdup, of Burnt Fork, Uinta
county, Wyo., has invented one to be
operated by hand, the only thing of its
kind, he thinks. From frame con-
sisting chiefly of a pair of rockers or
sled-runners there projects rearward
fixed arm, used as handle to steady
the machine, and reaching forward are
pair of pointed fingers or claws that
open and shut like an old-fashioned
candle-snuifer, under the control of q
lever that Is shown herewith, nearly

POPULAR SCIENCE.
FOR CARRYING DIRT.
a Curious Tramway That Is Useful In
Excavating Streets.

a Curious Tramway That Is Useful In
Excavating Streets.
When excavations are made IN
streets, to permit gas or water mains,
electric conduits or sewers to be laid,
the earth which Is removed is usually
thrown out ut one side, occupying
about us much space as the trench IT.
self, perhaps more. In narrow streets
this double encroachment is a serious
matter. For several years, therefore,
some contractors have employed ma
chine which carries the dirt along to
the finished portion of the work, and
then dumps it into the trench again.
This renders unnecessary any heaping
up of the stuff along the route, except
at the very beginning and end. Re-
cent improvements in this system OF
operations bring it into fresh notice
just now, but the essential principles
are unchanged.
At intervals of from sixteen to thir-
ty-two feet along the line stout A.
shaped wooden trestles twenty feet
high are erected, and these support, in
their uppermost angles, succession of
steel l beams. Thus is constituted a
railway by means of which great buck
cts are conveyed from one point to an
other, very much rs they are in cable
tramway. The moving receptacles hang
from trolleys, or rolling frames, whose
wheels ride on the lower flange of the
beam. One rope, operated at dis
lance by n steam engine and drum.

IL bears down with both hands. This
last proceeding tits the machine on
the rockers, and pulls the bush up by
the root. When the lever is moved
forward the next time out drops the
plant, to wither and die. The inventor
claims that this method is far less
lborious than removing the brush with
a mattock. He will give half inter.
est in this tool to anyone who will
patent and manufacture it for the mar
ket in cooperation with him. Y.

Tue convention of the Forty must
be source of satisfaction to all but
extremists. The meeting was charac'
terized by all the harmony and courtesy
that could have been wished for.
Nothing unpleasant marred the &C.
casioa, and all in all it looks as if we
have finally come to look upon "peace
and unity" as something more than a
political "of-ysar" theory. The plans
proposed will meet universal approval.
Equal division of delegates and white
supremacy are first and foremost.
The convention promises its support
to aud cooperation with all workers
for peace. We tras: their efforts will
bear fruit. For this to be the case
much immediate work in this direc-
tion is necessary. The opposition in
the persons Of Irby and Wilson are
going to do their utmost to destroy the
effects Of this conference and to defeat
its purposes. They can hardly do So,
but something more than the mere
expression of desire for "peace and
unity" is necessary. 1t must be work
ed for.

the: constitution says:
"All persons have right to be Sc

D. p.oers or possessions. All warrants
Shall be supported by oath or affinaa-
ton and the order OF the warrant to a

and 10 warrant shall be Issued but in
the cases and with the fermality pre-
scribed by the laws"
The Times is laW-abiding and be-
lieves in supporting and upholaing the
laws, but it does not believe i'll tramp

such, FAUST be kept in7i2late st all

There is another clause il the Con-
stitntion, the first part Of Section %,
which says: "Private property shall
not be taken or applied TO public use"
Does rot that clause prohibit tho selz-
ure of liquor for the purpose Of re-
sale by the State? The liquor might
be seized and destroyed, but cannot,
we believe, be legally covered into the
dispensary.
The dispensary law goes so far as
to say that no civil suit Shall be
brought against any officer acting
under its provisions, but some method
must be devised to protect innocent
people from suca outrage If there
is no recourse thea the governor must
