AN SONG.

-. Clinton Scolard in Ladies' Home Journal.
There's a flush on the cheek Of the pippin
and peach,
And the first CLINT of gold on the hough
The bloom from the stem of the buck
wheat is cut.
And there'll soon be a gap in the burr of
the nut.
The grape has a CLEAN like the breast of
And the haw is as red as the lips of my
love;
While the hue of her eyes the blue gentian
doth wear,
And the goldenrod CLOVIS like the gloss
of her hair.
Like bubbles of amber the hours float
away
AS / search in my heart for regrets for
the May;
Alas! for the spring and the glamour
thereof;
The autumn has won me, the autumn
and love.

ELI MUST HAVE FUN.

HumOrists Must Make Facts Fit
Jokes. Not Jokes Fit Facts.
NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-My Dear Editor of
The Bee: l note in The Bee the following
comment:
IF Eli Perkins doesn't stop circulating
fiction under the guise of truth he will GER
tainly get icto trouble. His latest is a
yarn about an after-dlnner speech delivered
in Omaha by Secretary Of State Evart when
he was in this city with President Hayes
and the other members of his cabinet. AS
Mr.. Hayes never was in Omaha during his
incumbency Of the presidential office and
after-dinner speeches were rare articles out
here in those days, the tale Is a trihe far
fetched. Try again. Eli!
Why, bless your dear old conscientious Ne
braska soul. of course We don't stick to the
truth when we tell these anecdotes. We first
invent the anecdote and then look around and
find some conspicuous man to father the
joke. The joke Is what we are after. We
are not writing dry history. There is no
humor in history. To illustrate: The other
day l thought Of a good point on bible &C
curacy. Then I looked around for my Law
figure to hang the joke on. DR.. Briggs was
the man. and the next day this is the way
the joke looked:
DIR. BRIGGS LOGICAL. z
When they were trying DIR. Briggs before
the presbytery they asked very hard ques-
lions.
"Dr. Briggs said the moderator, "do you
believe the Holy Scriptures, contain the word
of God?"
Eyes, as translated by men,
"Do you believe that Moses wrote the
Pentateuch?
mot all of It,"
''Didn't write all of 1t? Moses didn't write
the Pentateuch? ?" exclaimed the moderator.
Whjla CnVaral an1itnrc nriaI sE,nr ho,,o
What part didn't he write" continued the
moderator, thinking the liberal thinker had
walked into a trap.
"Well-er-er, the account Of his own
DEATH and then the doctor looked modestly
at the floor while ripples of laughter greeted
the solemn moderator.-El Perkins.
In a day or two l expect to see afhdavits
from DR.. Briggs and the chairman OF the
presbytery denying the facts! But in the

onto my little girl, Ethel. and today she is
raving. She says it amt SO! 1t amt SO, but
l got in my joke.
THOSE WORLDLY YOUNG PEOPLE.
My daughter came home from the last
church sociable, said Eli Perkins, with a
pearl and ruby G. d. R. A.. badge.
why, Ethel" l said, "what new society
have you been joining?'
why, this, papa" pointing to the C. D..
R. A. badge. This badge represents the
church Dancing Reform association"
But you don't tell me that you church
girls are dancing, do you?"
80, dear, no! We form in sets. you know,
and the gentleman puts his right arm around
our waists and holds our right hands in the
other as they do in the po.ka-and then"
Ethel, what theu?"
Why, we go and sit down on the stairs or
promenade around the Conservatives"
do you call that a success?"
do |? Look at that ring!'
What would you old stupid editors do with
your dreary politics, tariff and coinage with
put our jokes. Your readers would die on
ennui. ELI PERKINS

II wish | could find a way to please every

climbed aboard. This morning l have a sum

worse than ever. If | live until next SUM

the web a white spider was at work. The
gravel swung over a foot clear OF the ground
and had been approaching the web at the rate
OF about two inches a day. The whole neigh

this remarkable piece OF engineering for sew

The garden will be overgroWn
Where now the roses fall.

We Will not mind the pain.
The ~throbbing crimson tide of life
Will not have left a stain.
The song We sing together, dear,
VIII mean no more than means a tear
Amid q summer rain.
A hundred years from now, dear heart,
The grief will all be Ger;
The.sea of care will surge in vain
Upon a careless shore.
The glasses we turn down today
Here at the parting of the way;
We will be wineless then as they,
And will not mind II more.
A hundred years from now, dear heart,
Well neither know nor care
What came of all life's bitterness
Or followed loves despair.
Then fill the glasses up again,
And kiss me through the rose-leaf rain:
Wen build one castle more In Spain,
And dream one more dream there,

THE BABY ALARM.

The newest electric household appliance, and
in future no nursery will be complete with
out it, is the baby alarm 1t often hap
pens that in a large house, where the in
FAINT is sleeping in a room on an upper story,
the nurse cannot retire to the servants
room, which may be on a different floor.
and too far distant for any to hear the child's
signal that 1t is awake, The intention of the
baby alarm is to give warning to any re-
CURED distance when the child cries. A
sensitive microphone. placed near the cot.
is connected to a battery and an induction
coil, and thence by wires to a small electro
magnet at the end where the sound is to be
received. When the child cries the micro
phone will set up an undulatory circuit, the
electromagnetic will be actuated. its oscilla-
ton will close a bell circuit and a ball will CON-
tinue to ring as long as the sound of the baby's
voice is sustained. AS the device is at
present constructed the adjustment of the
balance lever, which is set in motion by the
electro-magnet, is so delicate that the APP
paratus has to be handled with extreme care,
and any b~ungling by an inexperienced person
Is apt to derange 1t. Suggestions have been
made for lessening the complexity of the
instrument and making 1t a practical and
durable means of enabling infants to UNI
consciously signal to a distance, and thus
save much anxious watching on the part Of
those i'm charge

ELECTRICITY IN VIENNA.

An American correspondent writes from
Vienna that that city is remarkable for the
brilliance Of its lighting effects. All the
stores, hotels and public buildings are beau
tifully Illuminated, and in the Grand opera
house the display of stage lighting is strik-
Ing and gorgeous beyond anything to be seen
lsewhere in Europe. This gives the greater
prominence to the extraordinary fact that
the city. which abounds in magnificent ave-
nues, noble streets. municipal buildings and
palaces, has no electric car service. The
passenger traffic is done by numerous omni-
buses, cabs and Anticipated horse cars. The
horses are deliberate in their movements to
a painful degree. and their drivers seldom
urge them beyond the slowest of trots. The
man who is IN a hurry finds 1t advisable to
walk; but In the soft air Of the southern cap
ital time does not seem to, be Of very great
importance, and the people are apparently
content. The Austrians have no particular
objections to the electric car so long as II
keeps out of their beautiful metropolis. There
Is a short electric line running from the out
skirts to Moedling, about four miles, which
employs about ten motor cars and a few trail
ers. But inside the city they will not hear
Of It; they are afraid, in the first place, that
the. cars will spoil the city streets, and sec
ondly, that the running of the electric cars
will interfere with the immense number OF
private equipages owned by the well-to-do
Viennese.

A new secret order is to be estab-

and to be known as the American
league. Hamilton, Ohio, will be

order, who will be Hamilton man,

the different States will be known as
grand commanders. The league will
be an intensely patriotic order, en-
bracing the objects of all the various
patriotic orders. Fifty citizens of
that city have been forming the

new order. The ritual has already
been compiled and constitution is
