The One Man Power,

The One Man Power.
He stands where the tumbling waves can't
reach
His snow white shoes on the snow white beach
He stands where the tumbling waves can reach
His sun red feet on q sun white beach.
He walks in the promenade at eve,
And the maidens weep lest he should leave.
He looks at the dance and turns away,
Because it makes him too tired to stay.
When he goes to his various meals, he hurls
His declinations at a dozen girls.
When he swings in hammock half asleep,
The girls hang round him three feet deep.
He moves about in kingly way,
And who can blame him if he should say,
~ am the only pebble on the beach9'
He stands where the mountain rears its top
To the bowl Of heaven, whence the new stars
drop.
He moves midst the moss grown rocks and rills
And gives no heed to the ladies' wills.
He leads the german through figures fine,
And all his followers are feminine.
He owns the earth in whole and part
And each day breaks some maiden's heart.
He's monarch Of all he surveys and proud
To stand on the submits and cry aloud,
"There are no othersl"

OUTSIDE AND INSIDE WEATHER.

IA ditty for springtime or any other time Of
year.
In the morning when our eyes pop open early,
very early,
And we creep and peep to watch the sun
arise,
II he's hiding and cloudy sky, aglowering,
grim and surly,
Has no streaming golden beaming for our
eyes,
Why, then, lightly as feather
Must our spirits dance together
And our faces must be sunny all day long,
For as fresh as highland heather
We can make the inside weather
When the outside seems to be so very wrong.
But if with the outdoor sunshine all the happy
birds are singing,
And the trees are budding in the glad, warm
light
And the arbutus is peeping from its brown
leaves tender keeping,
And the face of day is fresh and sweet and
bright,
Why, then, why not all together
Make our faces match the weather
Fresh and sweet and bright and sunny all
day long?
For as fragrant as the heather
Is the charming outside weather,
And the inside cannot be so very wrong.

THE NEWSBOYS ANGEL.
He Was Liberal, but the Gamin Proved to
BE Ungrateful.

He Was Liberal, but the Gamin Proved to
BE Ungrateful.
Three ragged little newsboys, intent up
on game of craps, attracted half dozen
idlers into down town alley last night
One of the gamins bright, eager look
ing little chap of not more than 10, seemed
to be, in the language of the crowd, sup
against it, and his continued losses and
final bankruptcy excited the sympathies of
the audience, especially those of a sportiye
looking individual with an exceptionally
good natured specimen of the genus jag"
The loser quickly sized him up and made
direct appeal, which resulted in the
handing over of nickel, which was quick
ly staked Fortune smiled and the nickel
was doubled
"Mus' leave it lay?" the gamin queried
of his CANCEL" The "angel" hesitated
and the gamin shouted quickly, "Come
seven, for dime" Again he won, and
this time he did not have to wait for his
backer's approval to ''leave it lay" This
time he lost, but the sports sympathies
were now fully enlisted, and he willingly
produced another coin "Play 1t all, kid, :"
he said.
lily pUlHU! SOluo uNC! oquCdlCu
the "kid." And five, obedient to his sum-
mons, came The last contribution had
been 10 cents So the now beamng urohin
was the possessor of 20 cents, all of which
he unhesitatingly left to await the issue
of the next throw.
Again fortune favored, and 40 cents was
staked on the next turn of the dice. Los
ing, little persuasion was needed to obtain
another dime from the now thoroughly in
terested "angel. "
Doubling his stakes Zach time he won
and calling on his backor each time he
failed to pass and lost all he had previously
won, the game continued for nearly an
hour, and the angels" patience or his
supply of small change was at last ex-
hausted.
"Not cent" he said in answer to the
last appeal
The gamin, with big tears in his eyes.
turned to the other spectators.
"Only nickel, " he besought "Iknow
kin pass" But indifference was stamped
on every countenance, and seeing it a
marvellous change came over the grimy
face.
"Come on, boys. Dat sucker won't
cough up no more coin, but he's a pretty
soft sort er guy at dat. We worked him
for more'n two cases anyhow. Let's &C

New Mexico Shepherd Boys.

When going up the valley Of the Rio
Grande in New Mexico, my attention
was drawn to the hocks of sheep and
goats and their pastores, or shepherd
boys. These little shepherds wore
neither hats nor shoes. Their only gar
ment was tunio, reaching little be-
low the knee and confined by girdle,
from which depended a small pouch
or scrip A quiver, with bow and ar
rows, hung athwart the shoulders, and
the right hand held sling. Presently
stone from the scrip was hurled for
ward toward the right or left to make
the flock swerve to the left or right. 1t
was impossible not to recognize little
"David, the son of jesse" and one
might have almost expected to behold
Goliath, the Philistine, coming to defy
the children of Israel.
The portraiture Of the scene described
in the book of Samuel was too exact to
be ascribed to accident, and for the first
time it occurred to me that David bore
sling, not for the purpose of staying
bears or lions-or even Philistines-but
to guide and control the flock, and that
these little shepherds Of a kindred race,
dwelling in a country not unlike the
pastoral regions of Judea, very natural

The deepest hole in the world is be-
ing bored by the Standard Oil company
at Elizabeth, Pa 1t is nearly finished
and the boring has already gone down
more than mile. When completed,
the we'll will be 5000 feet deep At the
distance of 2, 295 feet a flow of gas was
struck which was sufficient to make
steam for boring the rest Of the way.
The most interesting phenomenon con-
nected with the work thus far is the
gradually increasing heat of the earth
as the shaft is sunk lower. At a depth
of $500 feet the temperature was 1879
degrees. At that rate a heat equal to
the boiling point of water, 21S degrees,
would be found at a depth of 8, 900 feet.
In case a strong vein Of water were
struck at great depth steam would is
sue in force from the hole. Science may
be able to gather from the deep well at
Elizabeth facts throwing light on earth
quakes, volcanoes, hot springs etc.

The Natural bridge Of To-day.

The Natural bridge is 215 feet in
height, 100 feet in width, with span
Of 80 feet. Under the arch might be
placed the Washington monument at
Baltimore. Cedar creek, the stream
over which it stretches its arch, is clear
as crystal. No photograph or painting
can impress the Aind with its immen-
sity or grandeur or geometrical proper
tions or the rich coloring or the pic
turesque surroundings. One must feast
his eyes upon the mighty arch to realize
its vastness. Under the arch are the
outlines Of an American eagle, formed
by moss and lichens. Upon one side is
where George Washington, when sur
yeyor for Lord Fairfax, 150 years ago,
carved his name in the rock. The raw
ages Of time and exposure to the ele.
ments have nearly obliterated the name,
but some of the letters are quite dis.
tinct. In the years gone by Henry Clay,
Daniel Webster and many prominent
statesmen, before railroads were built,
spent days Of inconvenient travel to
look upon this, one Of the wonders Of
the world. Now the iron horse speeds
over its steel roadway, and in a few
hours one can reach this destination
without fatigue. Baltimore Sun.

More gold strikes, this time in On
tario. The prospectors at Lake Wawa
believe they have a Klondike Of their
own, easy to get at and not SO cold by
half as the northwest gold region. On
the north shore of Lake Superior is a
landing place which is the connecting
link between Lake Wawa and the rest
Of the world. The gold district is be-
lieved to extend over at least 1000
acres. If the reports already received
be true, Wawa City, the new gold boom
town, will grow as fast as Dawson City
has done.

The best feature of the great rush

The best feature of the great rush to
the Klondike is that throughout it has
been so orderly rush. The scenes of
drunkenness, violence and gambling
that were familiar to our own Califor-
MIA gold boom days have not been re-
peated in the Northwest Territories. 1t
is likely that Americans have grown in
sense and refinement while they have
lost nothing in manliness in the last 80
years Then, again, the admirable po-
lice regulations of the Canadian govern
ment are responsible in great measure

ior manifest.

A Blessing to the Babies of the Poor
An Enterprise that should be

The prospect is very encouraging that
the distribution Of pasteurized milk, de-
void of all microbio germs, among the
children of the poor at nominal price,
will become general in the large cities of
the United States. While this benevolence
will be a blessing to the babies, our
adult population enjoy an equally great
one in the benefit conferred by Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters upon persons sfflict-
ed with kidney and bladder complaint.
Danger from Bright's disease and dia.
betes is surely averted by this admirable
preventative, which is also safeguard
against malsrial fever and rheumatism,
amp thorough remedy for dyspepsia,
constipation, liver complaint and nerv.
ousness. Diseases, insignificant at the
outset, enlarge their proportions and ca
paoity for destruction through neglect.
Another point of importance in using
