A LIGHTHOUSE GIRL.
Abby Burgess flakes Brave Rescue
of Her ImperiIed Chickens.

Gustav Kobbe writes a paper on He
roism in the Lighthouse Service" for
the Century Mr.. Kobbe says: Sew
eral of the violent storms that have
whirled over Matinicus Rock have tried
the fortitude of the little band of faith
full watchers upon it. One of these
watchers, Abby Burgess, has become
famous in our lighthouse annals, not
only for long service, but also for brav-
cry displayed on various occasions. Her
father was keeper of the rock from 1888
to 1861. In January, 1856, when she
was II years old, he left her in charge
of the lights while he crossed to Matini-
Gus Island. His wife was an invalid,
his son was away on a cruise, and his
other four children were little girls. The
following day it began to breeze up;
the wind increased to gale, and soon
developed into a storm almost as fu
rious as that which carried away the
tower on Minot's Ledge in 1851. Be
fore long the seas We're sweeping over

might be carried away. On lonely

safety of the inmates of the little coop,
waited her chance, and when the seas
fell off q little rushed knee-deep
through the swirling water, and res
cued all but one of the chickens. She
had hardly closed the door Of the dwell
ing behind her when q sea, breaking
over the rock, brought down the old
cobblestone house with a crash. While
the storm was at its hight the waves
threatened the granite dwelling, so
that the family had to take refuge in
the towers for safety; and here they
remained, with no sound to greet them
from without but the roaring of the
wind around the lanterns, and no sight
but the sea sheeting over the rock. Yet
through it all the lamps were trimmed
and lighted. Even after the storm
abated, the reach between the rock
and Matinicus Island was so rough
that CAPTAIN Burgess could not return
until four weeks later.

NIPPED IN THE BUD.
A Threatened Revolt i'm a Reform
School i'm Kansas.

TOPEKA, June "A threatened re-
volt at the State Reform School was
nipped in the bud to-day, when the
officers of the institution seized and
carried away rifles with which the ITO
inmate have been allowed to drill for
several years past.
The recently appointed officers are
to assume control of the reformatory
at the end of the present week. The
boys had plotted to make a dash for
liberty the day after the new officers
took charge believing that the new
guards would be green hands and easy
to overcome. Their plan was to make
the break in the evening and at the
close of the drill in the militia COM
pany, in which all the boys are enrolled.
1t was discovered upon investigation
that some of the inmates had secured
ammunition for the rifles and that they
proposed to use them on the guards if
necessary. Hereafter the militia COM
pany will be drilled with broomsticks.

What Woman Owes to Society.

Woman stands as the sacred guar
dian of future homes and our nation s
prosperity, and to her must we look
for true reforms. To her standard must
society come. Let her be sure to place it
high and keep it pure, and make 1t
apply impartially to all people. Let
her keep out those whom she knows
fall short of her standard, and never
condone in the stronger sex what she
condemns in the weaker. Let he think
not to elevate society by hiding or con-
doning the evils which surround her on
every side, but only by shutting out
those whom She has found it impossi-
BILE to raise to her standard. Then flu
ture generations will arise who will
bless her for their heritage, instead of
cursing her for their misery.-Dwight
L. Moody in Ladies' Home Journal.

The Other Side.

If some of the men who advocate the
immediate killing of every COW that re-
spends to the tuberculin test, would
make a journey to the New Jersey
Experiment Station, they would be 81
lent for a long time. They would find
there strong and rugged animals that
responded to this test, yet are likely
to die of old age. They are giving
pure, rich and healthful milk, and are,
on the whole, in better health than
when first tested. Such cows are liv-
ing examples of the folly of killing all
animals that respond to this fine and
delicate test. At the same time this
experiment about upsets the theory
that the tuberculin stimulates or in
creases the disease in an animal that
is we'll cared for.-Rural New Yorker.

Progress in Seismology.

Selsmology is now SO far developed
that seismolcgists are able not only to
study earthquakes which no one feels,
but have begun to investigate their re-
lations, of which there are many, with
most promising results as far as geolo-
gy is concerned. There ere thousands
of earthquakes or earth tremors every
year, and half of them come from
deep water. The ocean is really the
home of earthquakes. Twenty years
ago their study was commenced in ia
pan, with the result that the seismology
of that country has revolutionized the
seismology of the whole world. AS
consequence the methods of building
in Japan have entirely altered, SO that
houses erected on new principles
stand, while their neighbors' are shat
tered.
