Four of Il Kind.


There was dog who had some neas that
ate him up alive,
Yet never dare to scratch himself or 'gainst
them eer to strive
1t was the natural order, the only good
old way,
They kept the circulation good, and plainly
every day
Made demands on home consumption, and
on the vital flow
Much needed by the stomach, as every dog
should know.
Should you hastily condemn this dog, don't
think that I'll defer
To harsh judgments Of puppy that was
nothing but a cur.
There was once long cared donkey that
went stalking round the lots
Till he got a stomach trouble that proved
to be the bolts,
And soon from well-fed plumpness he be-
came a bony hack;
But he dared not eat a thistle lest it
scratch a poor botts back.
He thought perhaps the climate With him
did not agree
But hoped relief from those dear bolts in
his economy.
Do not abuse this creature vain, but let
the matter pass,
Remembering that this animal was nothing
but an ass.
There was once solemn monkey lived
within a southern grove,
And filled himself with fruit and nuts
wherever he did rove;
But his fellows held convention when he
was not around,
And parceled out a thousand trees to each
one on the ground.
And the next time he came out his cave
about his meal to see,
He found he must go hungry for he did
not own tree
The good of that monopoly he prayed for
with each breath,
And he took just what they gave him and
he slowly starved to death,
Now, should you be at all inclined to blame
this hairy shape,
Remember you would do just so had you
been born an ape.
Their was once host of workers who by
their daily toll
Subdued a wilderness and thrived upon the
soil,
Made wealth to flow like waters in the
flood tide Of the spring;
Sowed the emblem of the eagle with its
wide and soaring wing.
But when the banking fleas and bolts had
settled on their veins
And the land was wrested from them with
their little store of gains,
They did just like these animals that did
lately name,
Found what the vermin fattened on and
hustled for the same.
And whatever the election, when the para
sites came by,
They'd give their votes by millions and
praise them to the sky.
No matter how much hardship or misery
they went through
They voted as the millonaires and fiunkies
asked them to.
But tits a painful subject, we will gently
let it pass,
OF course, there Is not now man who's
cur, or ape or ass. -Omioron

ROCKET IN WAR.
An Engine of Destruction which In
ventors Are Trying to Perfect.

The world was recently startled by the
announcement that Frenchman named
Turpin had invented an engine of war SO
terrible that the nation possessing it would
have the power of annihilating it's oppo-
nents-so dread a machine that its very
might would put an end to war altogether,
saws the New York World. The records of
the French patent office reveal the fact that
this engine of destruction, which should
act as a sort of cast-iron Jupiter Tonans, is
a rocket.
inventors in all ages have been struck
with the great advantages of the rocket
as a missile over the ordinary cannon
with it's projectile. First, the rocket car
ries its propelling power with it, while the
projectile receives only big push, as it were
at the beginning. The cannon ball must
move more and more slowly as it goes; the
rocket may go faster and faster and faster.
The cannon ball implies an enormously
heavy and awkward piece of artillery; for
setting off the rockets nothing is needed
but q light portable frame or carriage
The first military rockets that made much
stir were those of Congreve, which did
good work in the bombardment of Copenha-
The representative. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1893-1901, 1895-04-24

gen and also in the Crimea
But they did not always go-straight. The
inventors then tried TO. make a rocket
which, like the breech 1oadifg rifle. should
cause its projectile to rotate, swiftly. To do
this and still keep the Locket in a straight
and even line is difficult problem
To this end, instead Of providing a rifled
cannon tube, Turpin gives his rocket pre-
liminary spin by the aia of electric motors.
He can thus evidently get up AN enormously
high speed, but it is, u4fortuna tely, accom-
panied by trembling movement, which has
a disturbing action on the accuracy of fire.
So the military rocket is stiu short of per-
lection as an egine ofewar, but Turpin's
rocket has come nearer to it than any of
its predecessors. -
