10! tbs . gala night
Within the lonesome latter yearsi
An angel throng, bewinged, bedight
In wells and drowned in tears,
Bit in a theater to see
A play Of hopes and fears,
While the orchestra breathes itfully
The music Of the spheres.
Mines, in the form of God ON high,
Mutter and humble low
And hither and thither fly.
Mere puppets they, who come and 20
At bidding Of vast. formless things
That shift the scenery to and fro,
Flapping from out their condor wings
Invisible woei
That motley drama! Oh. be sure
1t shall not be forgotl
With its phantom chased forevermore
By a crowd hat seize 1t not,
Through q circle that ever returneth in
To the selfsame spot,
And much of madness and more of sin
And horror, the sou Of the plot.
But see, amid the mimic rout,
A crawling shape intrude!
A blood red thing that writhes from u
The scenic solitudei
1t w~rithes-it writhes with mortal pangs
The mines become it's food,
And the seraphs sob at vermin fangs
In human gore imbrued
Out. out are he lights: out ALI
And over each qulvering form
The curtain, a funeral pail,
Comes down with the rush Of a storm,
And h angels, all pallid and wan,
Uprising, unyeiling. affirm
That the play is the tragedy "Man,"
And its hero the conqueror. worm.

IN THE RUINS OF PoMPeu.
Evidences Of the CommOnness OF SLAYER,
Found on All Sides.

Evidences Of the Comm0nneSs Of Slavery
Found on All Sides.
Evidences Of the commences of slav-
cry in the time of Pompeii' 9 destruction
are abundant ON all sides. The gladia-
tors were a class Of slaves trained for
fighting, and some Of the wall scrib-
blings refer to their condition as one of
slavery. Here is the translation of an
advertisement painted ON q wall near
the amphitheater:
Twenty pairs of gladiators, paid by
Decimus Lucretius Saltius Valeus, prince
in the time of Nero, the son of Caesar
Augustus, and ten pairs Of gladiators,
paid by Decimus Lucretius, the son Of
Decimus Valeus, will fight at Pompeii
on the 18th, 18th and 14th Of April.
"There will be aproper hunting scene
and the awnings will be spread. Writ
ten by Clev-Emilius Clev, writer of in
scriptions; wrote this by moonlight"
The gladiators' barracks were ample
for the housing of 1900 or 5000 men,
and it is a matter Of record that at least
1000 were engaged at one time in the
life or death combats which stretched
over a long festival. The actors in these
murderous sports were ''barbarians"
from various parts of Europe or from
Asia Minor and Africa.
In the Naples museum is q bronze col
Lar which was worn about the neck of a
man whose skeleton was found in a
Pompeiian house cellar; ON the collar
is engraved, in Latin, these words: II
am a slave. Arrest me becauseI am run
ming away" l could at help thinking
while looking at this ingenious and
cruel substitute for a convict's dress
that it was possible that the poor wretch
who wore it may have been one of the
descendants of the blond haired Brit
ons brought home by Julius Caesar to
grace his triumph 100 years before Pom
peii disappeared beneath its pail of lava
and ashes.
In the Gheezeh museum, Cairo, one
may look upon the black and shriveled
face Of that Rameses whom we know as
the Pharaoh of the Oppression. Mum
mics of other Egyptian kings, priests
and people are common enough. These
primeval men, who far antedated Pom
peii and Rome, stand ~undecayed in our
presence. Eut Pompeii presents the pic
ture of an entire city resurrected from
the dead, with all it's appliances of life
and means Of pleasure, profit. comfort,
luxury, vice and s~ustenance. The life is
gone out forever, but the mummifed
city remains-a monument Of human
ingenuity and human frailty New

Preparing the Mineral For Its Many I'm
portant Uses.
If any readers have ever made the &C.
quaintance of asbestus at all it, has no
doubt been in the shape of backing to a
gas stove or a friedrich. Very few peo-
pie outside the trade know what emo
nous quantities are utilized where ma
chinery is used. Tho business done in
domestic asbestus is q mere bagatelle
compared with that got through in
packing for steam boilers and engine
pistons.
Asbestus in its original state is a
hbrous mineral indigenous to Canada
and other places and is sent over here
In Jumps like pieces Of raw slate on the
top and bottom, while tho sides are COW
cred with a fluffy substance-the fiber,
when it is pulled from the bulk. You
can pick each lump to pieces with your
nails, although to look at it one would
think that nothing less than a heavy
hammer would make any impression on
it.
When it reaches the factory, it is put

nary mortar mixers hat you see where
building operations are going on, and
the resulting gritty, fluffy mass is
thrown into what is termed a s'devil."
The devil tears it up with sharp
prongs and then Sits the grit from the
fluff. The former is used for mixing
with the asbestus in other processes,
while the latter is shot into q receptacle
that reduces it to q consistency almost
as fine as cotton wool. As it falls from
this machine it looks for all the world
like snow.
In other departments the raw ashes
tus is crushed and then mixed with Ger.
tain earths to be used for covering
the outer surfaces of steam boilers, as
bestus being a nonconductor of heat.

New Sort Of Poker.

A new variation Of poker has sprung
up. 1t deals out the entire pack in
equal numbers to all players. If five are
playing, for example, each will get ten
cards at the start. If seven are playing,
each get seven, the three cards left over
being put aside. Then, instead of draw
ing, each player discards as he likes
from his hand S that he shall have five
cards to play with, making the best
hand possible out Of those dealt him.
Hands are apt to run high in this sort
of game. 1t is called Peculiar.
A poker in which six cards were
dealt, discards and draws being so reg
ulated that only five cards constituted
the final hand, has been known for some
time, but this is a further development
Of that idea. 1t is said to have originat-
ed along the shores Of Long Island
New York Sun.

The Color In Irish Verse.

OF course there is no deficiency Of To-
cal color in such q book. We hear much
Of the "Suggarth aroon," the "Tubber-
na-Scorney," the ''Cushla Macree'' and
other things pre-eminently Irish. Now,
the "Suggarth aroon" is a capital fish,
especially when served with "sauce
Hollandaise," and all the world knows
that the "Tubber- Scorney" is one of
the most picturesque Of ancient SYM
bolic Irish customs. Still the merely
Saxon reader, who is not familiar with
the Irish language, is sometimes "maire
bhan astorred" when he comes across a
poem plentifully sprinkled with Irish
expressions, with the exception, Of
course, Of such a universally understood
remark as "Begorrah, or that touching
phrase Of endearment, "Faugh a bal

Pear Tree Fruited With Apples.

A pear tree hanging full Of apples is
q freak Of nature located on the old
Dunklinson farm, two miles north Of
Saylor Spring, Ills. The farm is occu-
pied by Captain George Elliott, who
discovered the tree loaded with green
apples a few days ago. This tree has
borne pears Of a fine quality for eight
years in succession. People are coming
from the surrounding country and towns
to view this phenomena. Captain George
Elliott and Police Judge Frank Van
Houten vouch for the tree being pear
and its now being fruited with apples.

Kleptomania.

To believe q French writer, there are
no fewer than 4. 900 women caught ev.
cry year in stealing during their shop
ping expeditions, a habit euphoniously
styled kleptomania. The number of
titled ladies seized with this strange
malady while examining the fashions of
Paris, he tells as, is almost incredi-
BILE. Among the most recent culprits
were a Russian princess, q French count
ess, an English duchess and the daugh-
ter Of a reigning sovereign. AS a rule,
these more distinguished offenders are
let off on tho payment of a round sum
for the relief Of the poor, and when the
shoplifter is known to be rich the sum
exacted rises to as much as 10, 600
francs. The police authorities consent
to this sort of conformation. Baltimore

Here is what Prince Bismarck said to
a deputation Ct Silesian ladies ON May
ID:
II always regret that SO little influ-
ence in politics is allowed to the better
half of the human race. l do not expect
ladies to deliver speeches in parliament,
but / believe TINT the results of our cleo
tions would be more national and more
satisfactory if they were more under fe-
male influence than now. Honest Ger
man women, wives and mothers, do no.
appear in public as socialists, and ]
therefore believe that female sympathy
with our political institutions is a much
stronger bulwark against social democ.

been il it had been passed. Review

An Educated Spider.

Athens, Ga, has an educated spider
which has aroused considerable interest.
He wove a web ON the lot of Mrs. Eliza
beth Moon OF Hickory street that has
been the subject of study On the part Of
all who have seen it. The web is of a
dark color, and across the center is a sill
very strip resembling writing very
much, not very unlike the chirography
OF lawyers and great men. A close ex-
animation of the writing revealed nea
~ every letter Of the alphabet perfectly
formed. The superstitious regard it as
containing some kind Of a message. The
old spider who executed such an ingen-
ious piece Of work is nowhere to be
found Atlanta Constitution.
