AN ANCIENT CUSTOM.

The sounding of the mayors horn
at Rlpon, England, is one OF the most
ancient customs in the kingdom. 1t
formerly announced the setting of the
watch, whence the chief officer of the
town, up to the year 1904, derived
his Saxon style of "Wakeman," but
it has now lapsed into the iormaity
Of three blasts given at nine o'clock
every evening at the mayors resi-
dence by hisIofficial horn-blower, and
three more at the market cross. The
ringing OF the cathedral bell at the
same time is also custom of an.
tiquity, and is supposed to represent
the ancient curfew. The ancient horn
of the wakeman of Ripon is still pre-.
served among the corporation insig
mia. 1t is the natural horn of an OK
thirty inches in length and gracefully
curved: it is covered with dark blue
and encircled with five ornamental
silver bands of different dates Tit
Bits.

THE CENTENNIAL OF AMERICAN
COMMERCIAL LIBERTY.

Last week was memorable in the
commercial history of America. One
hundred years ago Uune s, 1857
the session OF the United States Sen,
ate was convened which ratified the
Jay commercial treaty with Grea t
Britain, securing our commercial lib.
erty as the natural complement OF
the political independence acknow-
legged twelve years before. The cen
tennlal OF our commercial liberty,
coming, as it does, when the country
is reviving from a great business de.
preston, is to be celebrated by the
issuing of work entitled Zone Hun.
dred Years of American Commerce, I"
the object of which will be to stmu
late the growing business confidence
by showing the great progress which
has been made in all branches of in
dustrial life. Hon. Chauncey NJ. De.
pew has been chosen for and accepted
the editorship of the work, which will
consist Of one hundred chapters by
one hundred Americans, each writing
of that branch of trade with which
he is identified. The work will be
brought out as centennial edition
of the oldest commercial paper in
America, the Shipping and CONNER
cial List and New York Price Current,
which was founded Dec. 10, 1895, as
the voice of the new commercial life
inaugurated by the Jay treaty.

NIGHTINGALE.

when thrushes rest the weary head,
H,d linnets lie in gold and green,
When blackbirds on downy bed,
Are silvered with moony sheen,
what voice awakes the emerald house?
what love incarnate flies on wings?
what passion shakes the trembling boughs /?
II il the Bird of Love that sings.
n Is the Bird of Love that sings.
stabbing our silence like a sword,
And Love himself that flies on wings,
Cod and enchanter, and no bird.
our moon of honey, our marriage moon,
Rides in the heaven for our delight.
The silver world grows golden soon,
Honey and gold spilled in the night.
The Bird of Love. the Bird of Pain,
He sings our marriage moon away;
Filling the night with golden rain,
Between the darkness and the day.
Closer and closer, hold me close.
For is it Love or death he sings
And is it Love or Death that goes
Through the sweet night with rustling
wings?

When | am dead, my dearest,
Sing no sad songs for me;
Plant thou no roses at my head,
Nor shady cypress tree;
Be the the green grass above me
With showers and dewdrops wet;
And if thou wilt. remember,
And if thou wilt. forget.
| shall not see the shadows,
shall not see the rain;
shall not hear the nightingale
Sing on, as If in pain
And dreaming through the twilight
That does not rise nor set
HAPPY | may remember,
And haply may forget.

are agreed upon, but on the question of
whether the time has already come for
the great change they are in d. ubt. 1t is
generally believed that the New York,
New Haven and Hartford company has
made the test on one of its least used
branch lines for purpose Of great i'm
portance. The new order of things has
worked satisfactorily go far. and the line
will be operated in the same way through
the winter of 80 and 96. Then, if every
thing has gone as we'll as now. it would
not surprise many people to see the power
of the main line changed to electricity.
When one important line has made the
change it is regarded as only question of
time when ali the other great roads, to
keep pace with the progressive. will do
the same. 1t will be the old story over
again of the trolley supplanting the horse
and the mulo on the street railroads.
Electrical experts disagree on the max
imum speed on the great railroads. Some
OF them claim that there is practically no
limit to it. 800, 400 ana 500 miles an hour
being within the scope of possibility.
OF course. such high speed would never
be utilized. Travelling at the rate of 200
miles an honr the motofman would have
to begin to slow down at point twenty
miles before the objective stopping place.
Then the possibilit of accident would
be greatly widenea unless The road were
