Any old and beautiful church gives

organism, beauty, absence of all
things momentary and worthless, ex-
clusion of grossness, of brute utility
and mean compromise, equality of all
men before God; moreover. time. eter-
nifty, the past 0ad the great dead. All
noble churches give us this. How much

ture already so absolutely organic, 80 fit

its cupolas mutually supported, the
weight Of each carried by all; the very
color Of the marbles, brown, blond, liv-
ing ~colors, and tie irregular symmetry.
iowerlike, of their natural patterning,
are all seemingly organic and ready for
vitality. Time has added that, with the
polish and dimming alternately of the
marbles and billowing of the pavement,
the slanting of the columns, and last,
but not least, the furnishing Of the gold
and the graduating of the mosaic into
an uneven surface; the gold seeming to

Tie Blind Girl.

She would never see the sur rist
again, never watch the dawn flushing
over that low belt of frs that marked
the verge Of the meadow. And her pic
lures, the tentative studies Of whicr
had constituted her keenest pleasure,
they would never be painted. No one
but herself would yer know how tbs
sun looked when it sank over a hill field
green with the first green of spring.
while far distant along the horizon the
trees were bare in exquisite tracery
against q sky Of palest violet.
All, the days, the days! She would
be "po~- G-.se." Her cousins would

never be free again.
And then suddenly, in q crash Of ter.
ror, she saw the years, endless, innu.

pe.cock.s Feather. Unluoky.

Unluckiness seems to be confined to
the bringing Of the tail feathers of Ju-
nos bird into a house. l am not aware
that this idea is held outside this coun-
try, and if it is confined to England
many various causes may have led to
the belief, which possibly arose in COM
p~aratively modern times-no earlier
than the. crusades.
Nothing is more probable than that
several crusaders brought home the gor-
geous feathers as curiosities, u strange
sight, and SO likely to make a deep i'm
preston. Nothing is easier to conceive
than that some misfortune, death from
disease, loss Of wealth or other bad
luck may have happened to more than
one possessor of the beautiful feathers,
and that they would OH that account
soon be credited with being the cause.
A belief of this kind once started is of
rapid growth and very long lived

Want Of Time.

The man who immerses himself i'll

property, or that his family may live
luxurious and idle lives, has no right to
plead want Of time for other claims. 1t
is not true that he cannot comply with
them. but that he has chosen not to do

She simply decides to use her time for
other purposes. And this liberty Of
choice belongs to every one, in spite of
any desire n attempt to disolaim it. -

LABRADOR DOGS.

How . Number Of Them Went ON an I'M
promptu Hunt.
The dogs Of Labrador are not only
most useful as draft animals, but for
hunting as we'll. A writer in Forest
and Stream, who has spent several sea-
sons in Labrador, relates a rather thrill
ing experience with a team of these
dogs, who, he says, trot along content
edly enough SO long as there is no game
in sight, but the moment they scent
game they seem to conclude that drag
ging a sled is for them merely q side is
sue; that their actual mission in life is
to go after the game whenever it is
within range. He Says:
"a thaw had been followed by o
frost, and the SNOW covering the ice OH
the lakes was frozen hard. So four of
our party got on the sleigh to have q
final drive. They started in great glee,
and just as they rounded the first point
they saw a fine young caribou buck
about 800 yards ahead. As soon as the
dogs saw it they gave a yelp like u pack
Of wolves and started like an arrow
from u bow after the caribou, which
looked round on hearing the yelp, saw
its pursuers and flew over the ice, keep
ing in the middle Of the lake. When the
dogs started with Il jerk. IL of the party
was thrown off violently and slid IA long
way on the hard snow before he could
pull up, feeling redhot from the fric-
tion and gazing wistfully after his fast
disappearing comrades, who chung to
the sleigh like grim death and enjoyed
this novel hunt. OF course, there was
not the slightest chance of their catch
ing the Animal, which, instead Of max
ing for the bush Oh the nearest shore,
held OF in the middle of the lake. right
up to the end, where it took to the
woods. The %impromptu hunters soon
found themselves in u difficulty, for it
was impossible to stop the dogs, who
could not realize that they had . sleigh
behind them with passengers. The
driver tried in vain to stop them. and
there was every probability of broken
limbs or necks when they would strike
the bush. However. they 0 made up
their minds and dropped off u by one
rolling over and over in the snow, o;
sliding some distance away, with much
damage to their neither garments and
much abrasion Of the ~cuticle. Mean
while the dogs, relieved Of the weight.
rushed after the deer, and, entering the
woods, got tangled up among the trees.
and, as usual on such occasions, wound
up with a free fight among themselves.
After extricating them the party re-em-
harkad and lrDyn ouiat1y bapk IN thu
house. where they repaired damages,
related their adventure and wrote it
down in the clubs logbook."

CRADLE SONG.

To sleep the corn il sinking,
For heavy hangs its head;
The timid flowers are shrinking
From darkness in their bed.
The evening breezes flocking.
Like gentle angels blest,
Come softly, softly rocking
The corn and flowers to rest.
Just as the flowers are shrinl ine,
30 timid, too, art thou,
And rs the corn heads sinking,
30 mods thy dear head now.
And sounds Of evening winging,
like gentle angels blest,
Como round thy cradle, singing
Ny darling one to rest.

SUGGESTION or GOV. BOIfS.

The Associated Press occasionally in
dulges in an omission that is most aggra-
waiting. For instance, on Thursday after
noon it reported that exGov. Boies had
submitted to the committee on platform
of the Iowa Democratic state convention
somewhat conservative suggestion on
the ject of preserving the parity be-
tween gold and silver and then proceeded
to intimate that the ex-governor had been
turned down in the matter. But the dis
patch gave no clew to the action actually
taken further than the announcement that
strong silver resolutions were adopted.
Such omissions lay the Associated Press
under the suspicion of cherishing some
Interior purpose that is foreign to news
gathering and should not be tolerated.
So far as the suggestion of Gov. Boies is
concerned, whatever action may have
been taken on it, we regard it as suffi-
GENTLY important and impressive to
merit the candid consideration of all sill
yer men. 1t implies no doubt of the
ability of the government to maintain
the parity of the money metals at the
ratio of l6 to |, if undertaken in good
faith, bat holds that, if reasonable ex-
perienoe proves the contrary, the ratio
should be so modified as to preserve the
parity and thus avoid either gold or silver

POLITICAL PROPHETS-NlT!

"And still the Optic sticks to its proph-
ecy: Among the Democratic delegates to
Chicago will be A. A. Jones, of this city;
W. S. Hopewell, of Sierra; John Y. Hew-
lit, of White Oaks; E. V. Chaves, of So
zorro, and Anthony Joseph, of Rio Ar
riba'
The Optic makes good political
prophet-iust so long as it relies on the
New MEXICAN for its pointers. This re-
minds US of what happened during the
contest for the Republican delegates to
Chicago. Eight days before the territor-
ial convention the New MEXICAN named
all the delegates, aud yet five days later
the Albuq uerque Citizen used the same
names and still later referred to it as the
Citizens prophecy" at the same time
Boosting that the Citizen was no "spring
chicken in politics." The other fellows
may crow, but the New MEXICAN always
leads in such matters-it never follows.

Re Fair.

The Republican press has been inclined
TO complain, and we think justly, because
of the criticisms of some of the Demo-
cratic papers of the territory, upon Mr..
Catron's record in congress during the
session now about to close. We think
Democratic editors have been too much
inclined to ignore the work actually done
by our delegate. 1t should be remem-
bered that the anti-prize-fght bill was
passed unanimously by both houses and
approved by the president in an inoredi-
bly, short time, all through the influence
of the representative from New Mexico.
And then, too, there we're er-there
were-other things that he has accom-
plished. Our delegate ought to have full
credit for what he has done for New
Mexico. It is not fair to deprive him of
it.-White Oaks Eagle.
