LOVE AND LIFE.

Sweet. we were happy, you and I.
Ere words Of warfare came betweens
Ere storms Of passion swept our sky,
That all so blue and bright had been.
But like q mad stream dashing,
It's vernal banks o'ersplashing,
Our swordlike speech came flashing
And sundered all between.
Love, it was as the heavens are
Upon clear and cloudless night,
When every golden, cleaning star
That earthward smiles is shining bright.
But peace afar was driven,
BY jealous doubtings driven,
Till loves serenest heaven
Was turned to darkest night.
Life, it was sweet, and free from care,
For love and faith in you were life.
And both in You seemed doubly fair,
Who We're with double fairness rife.
But from the wordy shower
OF doubt and anger S hour
Sprang forth bitter flower
TO poison love and life.
&C. G. Rogers in New England Magazine.

The custom Of flying flag at half

respect arose out of the old naval and
military practice Of lowering the flag in

A GOOD DANCER.

The men tell me that I am pretty
good dancer myself, which may or may
not be the case.
This, however, I will own up to,
whether it is Boosting or mott do know
whether man is good dancer or
whether he is not from the very first
moment my finger tips drop upon his
arm.

Certainly, as it turned out, he did not
dance with any other girls, but I don't
see that that weakens my statement.
You cannot judge much of the way
man dances by merely looking at his
heels or watching the way he handles
his partner.
know most of them would give their
ears now. to say that they had danced
with him. They don't say so, of course
They say they never have danced with
a man to whom they had never been in
troduced.
My fascinating partner and I never
were formally introduced. The thing
was quite simple, and I daresay the
trick has been played thousands of times
before. Ask you own brother, on his
honor, if he is innocent of it.
The assembly ball was gathering Of
no particular clique or set. It was q
room full of people who were in a great
measure strangers to one another.
With this last assembly was feeling
at first more than usually out Of tune,
because, although had been standing
by mamma good ten minutes, / had up
till then only ten names scrawled down
ON my programme, and had no others

Aboard, Comes to Grief
NEW YoRg. March The following
cable was received here from SouthwicS,
England; THE American schooner yacht
Mohican, belonging TO Or. Conyers Her
ring, which left New York IN November
last with Dr. Herring his bride and Miss
Letitia Thompson on board and which ar
lived at this place from Plymouth last
week, was destroyed by fire Thursday
morning
DR. Herring stated that the Alohican
was entirely gutted, ard that everything
on board was destroyed by fire lie added
that the Mohican was insured. -
Al the time the Mohioan sailed from
Brooklyn for the Mediterranean there was
considerable scandal created By the pecul-
inr character 81 the party She carried Dr.
Herring, it will be remembered, secured
o divorce and married again shortly utter
the CALLING bonds had been severed His
Wife also remarked When he conceived
the idoa OF the trip, among the first he in
vited was his divorced wife and her hus-
band. AZ the time the Mohican left,
therefore, there We're on board Herring and
bis second wife and Mrs. Herring No. /
and her husband No
While the boat was being fitted out IN
Brooklyn. Mrs. Herring No. advertised
for maid. A number Of young women
applied for the place. Among them was
Letltia Thompson. She was engaged.
When She notified her mother, there was a
great fuss made. Mrs. Thompson went
to the boat and took her daughter away
alleging among other reasons that she did
not care to have her daughter go with di-
yorocd people
After staying home few days Miss
Letitia disappeared. About that time the
| Muhican sailed from Brooklyn. Mrs.
Thompson went TO the yacht and satisfied
herself that the girl was not thero. IL sub
sequently tanspired that Lotitia by ar
rangemcnt with Herring, had gone down
the bay in tugboat and had been placed
on board outside the Narruws
When the boat left, il was ascertained
that she was proyisioned for six months
voyage, and that she had been insured for
nearly 100000. The Mohican had been
out nearly two months before She was
heard from. Some Of the underwriters
had about made up their minds that she
was lost, when a cablegram came via Lon
don announcing that she had reached the
/ Azores, and after making repairs would
start for the Mediterranean Whether the
yacht went to the Mediterranean, however,
is not known
About ten days ago she was reported as
having reached the southwestern coast OF
England. She stdd at Plymouth a few
days and then went to Southwick, another
southern port. Now that the boat has
been destroyed, DIR. Herring viii Of cours,
be compelled TO satisfy the underwriters
concerning his trip aud the condition o.
the boat when sho reached the Azores.

TIE FERNS ESCAPE.
Her Sailors Fought a Fire In the Hold Near
the Powder Magazine.

BOsTON, March s-The United States
transport Fern, commanded by Lieuten-
ant Commander George A. Bicknell, which
arrived here from Newport, whence she
had arrived from Philadelphia, went
through the most thrilling experiences be
fore reaching this port. After sailing
from Philadelphia about one week ago she
encountered large fields Of ice and heavy
seas, which disabled her so that she barely
escaped laundering and was considerably
delayed in making repairs.
she made q brief stay at the torpedo
station at Newport, leaving that port for
Boston on Tuesday night When off Cape
Cod fire broke out in the cabin, and In a
few minutes the captains quarters were
all in flames. just beneath the cabin,
within few feet of the fire. was stored 400
pounds of smokeless powder. The ship
seemed doomed, but after several hours
OF hard fighting the seanen suppressed
the flames, and the damage, which will
probably not exceed So. 600, was confined
to the cabin.
Several Of the crew were more or less
burned, but mono suffered serious injury.
heavy sea was rolling, and the high
wind blowing made the work doubly hard,
and the officers claim that but for the her
oism Of the brave crew the ship would
doubtless have been blown up and all ON
board Of her lost.

fFrom the Argus and Patriot, Montpelier, w
Eight years ago Geo. Hutchinson moved
from Bradford to Chelsea, VT, and bought
tks Eawmin at the latter place. He was
known Is one of the strongest men in that
section. On Dec. 20, '92 while at work in
the mill, he was struck in the back by
flying board, which seriously injured him
and incapacitated him for work of any kind
As q result of this, LocOmotor Ataxia set in,

the patient of all use of his lower limbs
The argus & Patriot interviewed Mr.. Hutch.
inson to-day, and his story is here given in
his own words.
"Mv back ached continually and my legs
began to grow numb and to be less and less
usable By the 10th Of April could do
absolutely nothing and was scarcely able to
stand MY physicians advised me to 60 to
the Mary Fletcher Hospital at Burlington,
to be treated, and I took their advice. When
left home my friends bade me goodbye,
never expecting to see me alive again.
The physicians at the hospital told me that
my case was serious one and 1 was COM
pletely discouraged. / remained at the
hospital seven weeks and took the medicines
which the doctors gave me. i felt better at
the hospital and thought that was recover
ing, and went home to continue their treat
ment, which 1 did for two months, and also
had an electric battery under their advice.
The improvement, however, did not continue
and ] began TO give up hope. August Ist,
1898, could not get out of my chair without
assistance, and If got down upon the floor,
could not get up alone. About this time
chanced to read an account of the wonder
full curative powers of DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People in cases similar to my
own. did not have any faith in the Pills
but thought trial could do no harm, so
bought some without telling anyone what
was going to do After had been taking
them some time l found that for the first time
ia months was able to walk down 70 the
post office, and my neighbors began to dis
cuss the marked improvement IN my health.
As continued the medicine ! continued TO
improve, and soon recommended work in
