Then one day came tho order to
break camp, aud with a dull heavy
pain at my heart / marched up the
winding road II was Monday, just
about sunrise, too, and as we went by
the farm house we saw Miss Sallio
standing at tho gate with her churn
and cream pail.
"Three cheers for Miss Sallio"criod
one Of the boys, and three loud cheers
went up.
She smiled and blushod, and per-
haps it was only my fancy, that the
blue eyes we're sad aud wistful Tue
blossoms from the oak had formed a
soft, snowy carpet around the little
shed. A lump rose in my throat as we
tramped by, crushing and discoloring
it. and soldier though / was to the
hearts core, 1 would have given FIVE
years Of my life to have stayed behind
and helped Miss Sallie churn just once
more.
The war came to an end, and went
back to my northern home. In time
l wooed northern sweetheart and
married a northern wife. Tho long
years went by, children we're born TO
us, grew up, and married, and grand
children stood about my knee. And
when they clamored for story I
would tell them how the boys in blue
once helped Miss Sallie to churn
down in old Virginia. My wife would
always smile as she listened to the
story, and one day she remarked to
me:
81 should like very much to see
Miss Sallie. Suppose We take a trip
down South and look her up?"
Well, though am a little ashamed
to confess it, my elderly heart bound
ed like a boys, and as 1 eagerly as
sented, my wife smiled again, and
said
81 shall always believe that Miss
Sallie was your first love-.
"But she would never have married
Yankee" 1 replied, laughing little
consciously.
Il don't know about that" my
wife went on. "Ihe Yankee was too
much of n coward to ask her. won
der if she's single still )" and Won
dered also.
So one day my wife and I started
for the South. We went to Strasburg,
a little town at the foot of the Mas
sanutten Mountain, about five miles
from Cedar creek. That night my
wife informed me that she had been
interviewing the wife of the proprie-
tor in regard to Miss Sallie.
"She still lives at the old place, "
said my wife, land she is Miss Sallie
STILL"
The next morning the sun was
hardly up when we started for Cedar
creek. I was very silent during that
drive. The sun was rising above the
mountains when we turned down the
winding road leading to the mill,
''There there is the shed !" 1 cried
as turn in the road brought it in
sight.
"And perhaps we shall find Miss
Sallie churning STILL, said my wife
laughing.
The carriage now stood directly in
front of the shed, and my heart gave
"a quick leap as I laid my hands OIL
the reins and brought the horses to {
standstill, for woman stood within
and turned her face in surprised in
quiry towards us. The next moment
! had leaped from the carriage, while
her blue eyes looked in mild wonder
at the impetuous elderly gentleman
OF course she did not know me afte
thirty years. But though her sunny
hair had turned to gray, and the ap
pie blossom pink had faded from hel
cheeks, knew her. She was Miss
Sallie and she was churning still. =

In the nomination of William Nc
Kinley the Republican party has pur-
sued both logic and inspiration. Since
the election of Grover Cleveland on a
platform denouncing Protection as
robbery reciprocity as 'ssham"
and characterizing the Mckinley
tariff as ssthe eliminating atrocity of
class legislation the logic Of events
was seen to point to the nomination
of Major Mckinley by the next Re-
publican National Convention. It was
generally perceived that this afforded
the readiest way of vindicating the
party which proclaimed protection
and reciprocity, and had framed the
tariff of 1890.

THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION

| The Messenger naturally has pecul-
lar satisfaction in rejoicing with the
party in the nomination for governor
made at Burlington last week be-
cause Major circuit was the choice of
this paper and it has gladly supported
him in his canvass. It believes now,
as it has before announced, that the
selection of Major circuit to head the
Republican state ticket was not only
a fitting honor to a broad minded
man Of sterling integrity, we'll tried
ability, and undoubted fidelity to part
and principle, but it meant the en-
listment in high position of trust
and responsibility the services of one
who has many times been tried and
not found wanting. Major circuit IN
the exalted Office of the chief magis
trate of this commonwealth will be
representative of the people Of Yer
mont as whole i'll all that goes to
make up their characteristic good
qualities. He stands oday among
the foremost Of our plain, practical,
head thinking, sober minded citizens,
a type of the sturdy manhood which
has brought fame to our green hills,
and he will lead to victory in Sep
TENDER as loyal and enthusiastic
host of Republicans as ever recorded
their indignation at the incompetency
Of the Democratic party.
In the nomination Of Hon. Nelson
w. Fisk of Isla La Motto, to the lieut.
enant governorship, the party has
exercised the same good Judgment
which has in times past as acceptably
filled this important position. Mr.
Fisk has evidenced in his personal
career and its successes the posses
sion of business traits and the exer-
Disc of common sense which are just
the requisites for the satisfactory dis
charge of the duties which will fall to
him.
AS for the rest of the ticket little
need be said and that only because
Hon. Henry F. Field, Hon. Chauncey
w. Brownell, and Hon. Franklin D.
Hale have so we'll performed their
duties in the past six years that they
have, indeed, abundantly merited the
compliment and commentator paid
them by a unanimous renomination.-

The fireplace is very important
feature of the winter life in Japan.
It's beginning is hole in the floor
from one to two feet square: in this
an iron pot is sunk, in which live char
coal is piled. Then a wooden frame
or rack, big enough to cover the hole
and about a foot high, is placed over
this; and over all is thrown large,
thick quilt, the edges of which spread
far out into the room. This is the
heating apparatus of the house, and
around it the family spend all their
leisure time. Tie method of sitting
is to put either ones feet or ones
knees to the fire, and draw the quilt
up as far as possible over lap, hands,
and arms. On top of the quilt, where
it.falls over the frame, is often put
large, square, polished board, which
serves as a table.

A Box Car.

IL ~ probable that in spite Of the fact
that one-twentieth Of the population Of
this country is dependent to large ex-
tent upon railways for the money it has
to spend but very few people know much
about the cost Of railway transportation.
For instance, there are few business
men who can say what the cost of All or
binary box car Is or how much ii costs
its owner year. As Il matter of fact
such car costs about $500. The wear
and tear which has TO be repaired costs
on an average about $50 year The av-
erage life is 3 years, and at the end Of
this time the car will be worth about
$50 for scrap, so the annual cost for re-
newal, or the annual sinking fund, will
be about *25. The railway owning the
car has TO maintain shops 10 repair its
rolling stock and that of other roads,
and it is probably about correct TO esti-
mate the wear and tear Of tools while
repairing the car at ST. 1t has general
ly been the custom to add 10 per cent to
bills for work done for outside parties as
compensation for the use of tools, or a
little more than the estimate of 81 made
above. Taxes will add another 81 to the
annual cost IF car, and interest at 9
per cent adds $50 more. Hence il will
be seen than the annual cost Of box car
To the owner is about 1888. If the car is
assumed to hn in the shop 30 days, it
will be in service $50 days, and its cost
per day of service is nearly % cents. A
fat or gOndola car costs about $40 orig
inally, and similar series of estimates
will show that its annual cost is about
$75, and its daily cost about %. 4 cents
for the time it is out of the shops. st.

Eastern Africa.

Professor Angelo Heilprin, the dis.
tinguished physicist, indorses the state
ment made by DR.. Gregory Of the Brit
ish museum that there exists in eastern
Africa, occupying a very considerable
portion of its extent, narrow and in
places very deep trough, in which the
great lakes and many of their tributaries
are located, and which, with more or
less open and depressed lowland, COM
municates with the basin Of the Red sea,
and yet further with the Dead sea and
to the valley of the Jordan-that is, ac-
cording 10 Dr. Gregory, there runs from
Lebanon, and then almost TO the cape
deep and comparatively narrow valley,
margined by almost vertical sides, and
occupied either by the sea, by salt steppes
and old lake basins, and by series of
over 20 lakes, of which only one has an
outlet 10 the sea-a condition of things
absolutely unlike anything on the sur
face of the earth indeed, the presence
of such rift, for this it appears to be,
can only be compared with the long
lunar riffs which have so long puzzled
astronomers. To Professor Suess, the
eminent geologist of Vienna, is attrib
uted the first demonstration that over
large areas of the earth's surface the
crust has been steadily breaking through
in the direction of the earth's center.
and that the crust has been torn and
rifted throughout all time by the sub
sidences of earth blocks, and he, many
years ago, pointed ont the probable ex-
istence of this vast Afro Asiatic trough.
