DAY LILIES.

The time OF the spleudor of liliesl
When cluster sweet-peas by the wall,
When fame the deep-hearted nasturtiums
When hollyhocks muster at call,
TT'Aea straight in their virgil whiteness
And sweet in their luster and grace,
Uplifting their censers of beauty,
Consider the lilies, a race
That toll not, nor spin not, that care not
For aught that is passing and brief
That bloom in the hour appointed,
The hour that bindeth the sheaf
Fair lilies that come with the harvest,
And rival the brave growing corn
In the strength of your delicate beauty,
That watt through the eve and the morn
perfume so faint and SO fitting.
May VIC not learn lesson from you,
To be quecnly and tranquil and tender,
AS our little life weareth through?

Yesterday morning as Harry and
Richard Robertson and Joe EN-
inert, brothOr'ip'law OF theirs,
wero Rshing at the Back river
dam, a woman, leading a little boy,
apparently two years old, by the hand,
aud carrying an infant In hor arms, APP
preached tho dam from tho Ohio side,
She Gid not especially attract their at
tentlon at lrst, but suddenly EmmHrt,
who was reclining on the dam, saw her
wade out into the water with the two
children under her arms, He followed,
calling TO tho Others to help him, aud
Richard Robertson also waded out Into
the water When they reached the
woman she and both children were in
the wRler up to their chins.
When the men undertook 10 take
the children from her, she resisted but
this was the only show OF fight she
made, She was lod uureIiStInR out
! npon the river bank. where Mr. Scatter

and her little ones.
Mr.. Robertson asked her name, and
while sue did not give It to him, lie lays
it seemed TO DO rather because sha had
forgotten II than that she did not want
to tell. Everything about her appear

tally unbalanced. She put her hand
to her head, as II trying TO collect her
thoughts, but all she said was;

the Fourth ward school house, and oh,
lie is so good TO me"
Later. while those about Wero trying
to obtain farther information, she said
that every time spe nursed tho baby
she wont crazy. When B0lIRire street

nIzed tie woman as Mrs. Maggie Old

that she was about to lose the children

Mr.. Robertson said that as they were
floating, rather than carrying, Mrs. Old
ham out OF tho dam, their feet ire
quOntly struck uneven places, causing
them to stumble, and the mother aud
two children would all be completely
submerged beneath the surface OF the
water. He feared that all three, and
especially the two children, would be
dead before they could be- gotten ashore.
After they were out on the bank neither

What Dollar Ellis Weigh.

Several customers were chatting in a
Lafayette venue grocery store n
evening recently when the grocer
pointed to q half barrel Of small beans
and asked how many Of them it would
require to make q bushel
Various estimates were offered. One
man recklessly put the number down at
30. 900, which occasioned a laugh from
MI the others who had guessed a much
lesser quantity, ranging all the way
from 5000 to 10000.
We'll, gentlemen remarked the
grocer, "you are all wrong. There are
approximately 10000 beans in a
bushel."
No one was inclined 10 believe him
until he showed them that it took sixty
beans, selected at random. to weigh
half an ounce. The rest of the ~calcula-
ton was simple.
.Now, then said one of the party.
"since we are engaged in guessing con-
tests, how many dollar bills would it
take to weigh as much as a silver dol
lar?'
One said one hundred, another said
scventy-tive. while the grocer. who knew
all about beans put the figures at three
hundred.
"All wrong" remarked the man. at
takes just twenty-two." This was
proven to be the case by experiment.
