ALarge lobster.

The biggest lobster ever caught OF
the Connecticut coast was brought TO
this city this morning by Captain Lord,
of East Lyme. 1t was caught in his
pond yesterday. The biggest lobster
ever known hereabouts up to this time
weighed fourteen pounds. A leg of
Captain Lords monster is as big as a
mans thumb and the wrist" at the
claw as big as mans wrist. The lob
ster is from two and one-half to three
feet long, and its body is as big around
as a good-sized pumkin, say two feet
in circumference. Captain Lord will
boil the big fellow and test its flesh,
which may be TOO rank to eat. He
will then have the she'll stuffed and
placed on exhibition at Flynn's, prob
ably. The lobster is the same as any
other lobster except in size. 1t may
be age that has distended him, for he
may have crept in from the great deep
just for lark, sample of the giants
further out. HIS pugnacity is not
great, but on the trip he was carefully
kept in a strong box.-Hartford Post.

to get the money the same clerk was

to me, saying: 'Oh, yes; you're the

What Water Can Do.

The effect of the hydraulic motor,
which is now used for the purpose of
removing masses ot earth, we'll nigh
passes belief.
A stream of water issuing from a
pipe six inches in diameter, with a
fall behind it of 375 feet, will carry
away solid rock weighing a ton or
more to a distance of fifty or 100 feet.
itThevelooity of the stream is terrific,
and tae column of water projected il
80 solid that ii crowbar or other
heavy object be thrust against it the
impinging object will be hurled a con-
siderable distance.
By this stream of water a man
would be instantly killed if he came
into contact with it, even at distance
of 200 feet.
At 200 feet from the nozzle six
inch stream, with 375 feet fall, pro-
jeeted momentarily against the trunk
of tree, will in a second denude it Of
the heaviest of bark as cleanly as if 1t
had been cut with an axe.
Whenever such Il stream is turned
against bank it cuts and burrows it
in every direction, following out
great caves and causing tons of earth
to melt and fall and be washed away
in the sluices. Montreal Star.

Toronto. Canada, seems, to Harper's
Weekly, to be one of the most regu-
lated cities in the civilized world.
Sunday is kept there like a suit OF
best clothes. There are no Sunday
newspapers; the street cars don'trun /;
nothing goes on except interest.
Even the tides in Lake Ontario omit
to ebb and flow on the Lords Dav.
On week days you can ride ON the
Toronto street cars for four cents n
ride. andi you are going to school
you can ride at half ratee no matter
how old you are or how big. The
street railways pay the city just
rent for their franchises, and the re-
sulting revenue is very largo and
saves taxes. Nevertheless, it is as.
serted from time to time that Toronto
is losing in population. The good
people don't care, for they say they
would rather live in good city than
in big one, but covetous persons
who do business or own real estate in
Toronto grumble, and say the town is
too good to succeed.

SWEET PATIENCE.

Oh, triiling tasks so often done,
Yet ever TO be done anewl
Oh, cares which come with every sun,
Morn after morn, the long years through
We shrink beneath their paltry sway
The irksome calls OF every day.
Tho restless sense OF wasted power,
The tiresome round Of little things,
Are hard 20 bear, rs hour by hour
its tedious iteration brings;
Who shall evade or who delay
The small demands of every day?
The boulder in the torrents course
BY tide and tempest lashed in vain,
Obeys the wave-whirled pebbles force,
And yields its substance grain by grain;
So crumble strongest lives away
Beneath the wear of every day.
We rise to meet a heavy blow
Our souls a sudden bravery Nils
But we endure not always SO
The drop-by-1rop of little illsl
We still deplore and stlll obey
The hard behests Of every day.
Tho heart which boldly faces death
Upon the battlefield and dares
Cannon and bayorets, fGints beneath
The needle points of frets and carec;
The stoutest spirits they dismay-
The tiny things Of every day.
And even saints OF holy fame,
Whose souls by faith have overcome,
Who wore amid the cruel flame
The molten crown of martyrdom,
Bore not without complaint alway
The petty pains OF every day.
All, moro than martyrs aureole,
And more than hero's heart OF fire,
We need the humble strength Of soul,
Which daily tolls and ills require;
Sweet Patience, grant us, il you may,
An added grace for every day.

The Upas Tree Myth.

The nonsense about the poisono us
exhalations of the upas tree we're dis
sipated long ago. 1t is, however, a
good old myth, with many variants in
folklore. Professor Weisner believes
that the upUs tree is the AutiaIis toxi-
caria, to be found in Java. There is
one species, the innoxia, which is
harmless, whereas drop of the ISL
pisated juice of the toxicalia will kill
a dog. Anyhow, there are quite
