liceman grabbed him and the thief
seemingly lost his footing and slipped
to the ground, but was on his feet
again in second loudly protesting his
innocence. He declared it was an out
rage to accuse an honest man of such
a crime, but, confident of what he had
seen, the policeman then and there
searched his prisoner for the stolen
pin. It wasn't found, and then the
sidewalk was searched with the same
result. There was no doubt that the
pin had been stolen, for the policeman
had seen the theft and the victim stood
weeping while the sympathetic crowd
tried to find it.
The man was locked up, but none Of
the police could identify him in court
as regular crook aud the woman re-
fused to appear against him, fearing
the publicity. The man was held for
short time and then discharged.
Later the woman advertised for the
return of the missing pin and subse-
quently it was returned to her by
young lady, who said that she found 1t
stuck in the folds of her dress on her
return home one day from shopping
tour Farther conversation disclosed
the fact that the yonng lady WAS look
ing in the window at the time of the
theft and had seen the whole affair.

Mrs. Emanuel Mandel has appeared
like fairy godmother again and lifted
the Jewish Training school to height
where bills cannot worry and creditors
are at peace. She did this by handing
check for $4,000 to the board of
directors, to be added to the sinking
fund of the institution. Mrs. Mandel
had given $4,000 to provide for the
erection of new building for the west
side dispensary. These gifts will en-
able both institutions to do the most
good to the poor Russian Jews who live
on the west side.
Mrs. Mandel is the wife of Emanuel
Mandel of Mandel Bros. Her life has
been devoted to good works and to the
amelioration of the sufferings of the
poor Jews who fled from persecution in
Russia to seek home in free coun-
try. She ia modest, retiring woman
whose deeds of kindness have never
been obtruslve. Her heart is in the
work of bringing education to the
masses, and many poverty-stricken

A Unique River

The historic Welaka river. the modern
St. Johns river, is to the stranger
one of the most interesting rivers on
the American continent. 1t is unique il
many particulars which go to make up a
river. Finding it's source in the far south,
it flows northward for nearly all its length,
until, reaching the metropolis of Florida,
it turns eastward and pours its great vol
ume of water into the ocean. This seems
the more strange since the universal opin-
ion prevails that the extreme south is low
and fiat, and would leave the impression
that the river ran up hill as it cuts its way
through the much higher land OF our north
ern boundary.
This, however, is a minor point of in
terest compared with the wild appearance
it presents to the eye of the stranger as
first he beholds it, with its somber cypress,
almost awaking superstition, and the
swamp hickory with its peculiar foliage
and small but rich sweet nut. upon which
the far-famed "razor-back hog," along
with the beautiful gray squirrel, feasts in
profound silence, but doubtless with vora-
cious appetite. A large part of the shore
on each hand conveys an idea OF vastness
of expanse because impenetrable to the
eye. This somber scene is relieved by the
stately palmetto, on which are often fes-
tooned from tree to tree the wild convol-
vuli. When seen in the early morn, as the
palatial steamers, seagoing and river,
swiftly make their way up and down the
majestic stream, these turn their beautiful
cup.shaped flowers, white as snow, toward
the coming king of day, sparkling with
dewdrops.
The broad savannas occasionally lie al
most, apparently, on the level of the river
itself. On these queer formations abound
wild flowers of every hue, shape and
botanical order, making one vast picture,
framed in the surrounding forests, enli-
vened all over with birds of every hue and
! sweet song, while the strong, green growth
presents tropical vigor of life which is
really an inspiration to health and
strength. Jacksonville (F1a.) Times

THOSE DAYS OF LONG AGE

Those summer days of long ago!
l seem to feel and know them still
The berry blossoms white as snow,
The crimson clover on the hill;
The sleepy highrOad, old and gray
That yaWned and stretched and crept away
Within the woodland cool and black
And never, never more came back
] seem TO feel the idle breeze
That loitered down the shady ways;
To hear the drowsy drone OF bees,
And know within my .oul the blaze
OF truant sunbeams dancing bright
AdoWn the highroad cut OF sight.
] seem to see the low rail fence,
That worming onward mile on mile,
Was redolent with pungent scents
OF sassafras and camomile
Within u fence rail tall and bare,
The saucy bluebird nested there;
Twas there the largest berries grew
AS every barefoot urchin knew
And swiftly, shyly creeping through
The tangled vines and brambled dense
The mingled sunshine and the dew
The Bob White peIched atop the fence;
And, flinging toll and care away
lie piped and lifted all the day.
Those summer days OF long agol
The noisy catbird fitted DER
The dogWood's yeasty waves of suow-
The dark green wood the further shore:
And l, a barefoot boy OF ten,
Stole tiptoe down he mOs>y glen
To count The baby birds at rest
Within their snugly hidden nest.
Across the stubDle fields of gold
Ashimmer i'll the pulsing heat
Those dreamy noontide hours OF old
Come trooping back with flying feet
Until ! seem to feel and know
Those summer days OF long ago!
