QUICK PERCEPTION.

A girl saved her life the
other day by sheer presence
not only of mind, but of body.
The two, it may be remarked,
are not always present at one
and the same time. 1t often
happens that however much
the mind may determine upon
certain action, it isn't always
able to make the body obey.
But this girl was more FORUM
ate. She was crossing a rail-
road track in a little inland
town that rashly gives it's rail
roads right-of-way up and down
the principal streets, or where
yer else they may wish to go,
unmolested by such precaution-
airy measures as signals, watch
men and the like. The girl
had, therefore, no idea that a
train was coming when she
stepped upon the traks. When
she had reached the middle of
the broad stretch of steel
stripes, however, she heard an
,unmistakable shrek, and look
ing up saw a locomotive bear
ing rapidly down upon her.
There was no time to be lost.
She started to scamper out Of
the way, when she became
aware that one foot was caught
securely between the rails.
There was still less time to be
lost now. Quick as a flash the
girl stopped down, unbuttoned
her shoe, and leaving it between
the rails, fled nimbly away, the
engine by that time almost
upon her heels.-Exchange.

Few FormalItIes at a Wedding In q Chi
oago Police Court
Quite an amusing episode occurred in
Justice Lyons court recently in the
midst of a trial for assault and battery,
when q young couple rushed breathless-
" into the room and informed his honor
that they wanted to be- joined in the
holy bonds of wedlock as quickly as
possible
In one hand the prospective groom
carried marriage license, which con-
tanned the names of August Rohner and
Marie Soss The assault and battery
trial came to halt, and Justice Lyon
glanced over the certificate by which
two beings we're permitted to call them
selves one.
Hurry COP, chudge," said the about
to be bride nervously as she shifted from
one foot to another and glanced appre-
hensively at the door.
but why are you in such haste?"
asked Justice Davy."
ut must be now or never" answered
the bride, land we want now. "
"All right" said the court; II guess
can accommodate you, and he re-
paired to mirror in the rear of the
courtroom, carefully arranged his SIS
tie, thought of the immortal Davy. Jr.,
ON the South Side, parted his hair in
the middle, took an extra reef in his
immaculate Prince Albert and called
the couple to the front.
If there is one thing Justice Lyon is
perfect i'll, it is in the art of tying nup-
tial knots, and he was at his best.
Have you a ring?" he asked.
"Nein, answered the lesser half.

"Nein, nein, or none, . broke in the
bride
ooh, all rightr' answered the court,
while his face took on q deep scarlet
hue, and he proceeded with the cere-
mony. The couple alternately looked at
him and at the door, and after it was
all over, and they stood together with
arms twisted together, fearful racket
sounded on the stairs, and little old
man, with glare in his eye, burst
breathlessly into the room. The new
Mr.. and Mrs. laughed at him, and
swearing volubly in German the little
old man gave the door a cruel kick,
passed out again, the bridal couple fol-
lowing. Justice Davy poked beauti-
full bill in his purse, and the assault
case went on.-Chioago Dispatch.

INTERESTING QUESTION.

Washington, D. c., May 31.-An
interesting question has arisen in
the treasury del tment which IN
wolves the legal meaning of the
word "polygamist." Commissioner
Stumpf Of the immigraii)n bureau
has received application for the adj
mission into this country of Robert
Stevenson and wife Kate, Barbara
Hunter, lizzie Nahter and seven
children. These immigrants recently
arrived at Quebec, from Scotland.
and in their affidavits state that
they are Mormans in religion and
full lie ieves in polygamy and that
each intends TO practice polygamy
if so inclined on reaching their
destination, Salt Lake. The question
involved is whether belief of poly
gamy of itself and in the absence of
proof Of any poligamoas act, brings
the party within the inhibition OF
the law declaring that poIygamists
shall not be admitted into this
country. Acting Secretary Wike
has the subject under consideration.
Mr.. Stumpf is of the opinion that
the parties should be debarred ad-
mission.

EN- RAPPORT.

Clasped In thy arms, with my head on thy
breast,
All is forgotten of sorrow and woe.
Nothing feel but peace, infinite rest
Hold me, beloved, thus tenderly-so.
Aglow with the love that forever is thine,
lift my cheek to thy willing caress.
Few hearts may drink OF the joy that is mine,
Few tongues such rapture can truly confess.
Clasped in thy arms, with my head on thy
breast,
feel thy heartbeats have quickened for me;
With gladdest Joy now my soul Is possessed
Life would be empty without love and thee.
Some say, beloved, that life is dream;
That at deaths coming we win but awake
But IL the waking parting doth seem
Let me dream ever for sweetest loves sake.

What Esau Hunted.

about noon we saw beast stand

the beast was a rhinoceros or unicorn.

pounds him against the rocks. It is said
by writers on natural history that they
place young virgin in his way, where

held thus entranoed until he be taken
and slain. "
Thus wrote that delightfully."- naive
observer, Father Felix Fabri, who visit

grims who have followed in his foot
steps with their eyes open will at once
recognize that the animal he saw was
the bedan, or Sinaitio ibex, which gazes
down ON passing caravans from the
cliffs which tower above their route.
He is seldom visible to them unless his
shapely figure happens to be silhouetted
on the sky line. This wild goat inhabits
the mountains on either side of the Rod
sea and the steep gullies of Moab and is
the only representative Of the deer or
goat tribes in these regions. Esau
doubtless hunted it, and those few
