GREAT UMBRELLA AT OMAHA.
Novel Mechanical Device at the
Transmississfppi Exposition.

Novel Mechanical Device at the
TransmissIssfppi Exposition.
The last Paris exposition had its EiffeI
tower, Chicago had its Ferris wheel,
Nashville has its gigantic seesaw. The
department of concessions of the Omaha
trans-Mississippi exposition of 1898 has
also received application for space for
the erection of a novel mechanical de-
vice. 1t resembles the framework of
gigantic umbrella more than anything
Selse which might be mentioned. The
Phrt corresponding to the stick of the
umbrella in an immense cylinder, 80
feet in diameter, constructed of steel
plates firmly riveted, making stand
pipe which rears its head $50 feet above
the level of the ground. At the extreme
top of this cylinder are fastened 12
long arms, resembling the ribs of an
umbrella. These are steel trusses,
reaching almost to the ground. At the
lower end of each of these ribs is sus-
pended car for carrying passengers,
each car having a capacity for 20 per-
sons.
y These monster ribs are raised by hy-
draulic power, acting by means of
steel cables operating through the cyl
-ihder, aided by a mechanism greatly
resembling that portion of an umbrella
which comes. into action when the um-
brella is opened. By means of this
mechanism the gigantic arms are raised
until they are horizontal, the cars in
the meanwhile being carried outward
and upward until they reach a point
$50 feet above the ground. The diane
ter of the huge circle formed by the
suspended cars is also $50 feet When
the highest point has been reached
another mechanism GENES into play
and the suspended cars are swung
slowly around in circle, after which
they are lowered to the ground. The
sides of the cars are of glass, so that
the passengers may secure an exten-
sive view OF the surrounding country
Manufactures.

SHE WILL SLEEP TONIGHT.
Heaven.

Smooth the curls of her sIllIen hair
On her girlish brow with tender care,
Her bridal robe in a final fold
Press around the form that will not grow old.
Lay on her bosom, pure as snow,
The fairest, sweetest flowers that grow
Kiss her and and leave her, our hearts delight,
A shadowy CLEAN of life light lies
Around the lids of of her slumberous eyes,
| And her lips are closed as in fond delay
| OF the loving words she had to say,
But her gentle heart forgot to beat,
And from dainty hand to dainty feet
She is strangely quiet, cold and white,
The fever is gone-she will sleep to- night
Put by her work aud her empty chair,
Fold up the garments she used to wear,
Let down the curtain and close the door,
Sh3 will need the garish light no more,
For the task assigned her under the sun
Is finished now and guerdon won,
Tenderly kiss her, put out the light,
And leave her alone-she will sleep tonight.
blessed sleep that will not break,
For tears, and prayers, nor loves sweet sake.
o perfect rest that knows no pam,
No throb, no chill of heart or brain
0 life sublime beyond all speech
That only the poor through dying reach!
Id lie Il
Bid His beloved a long good might.
Weep for the days that will come no more,
For the sunbeams flown from our hearth and
door,
For missing step, for a nameless grace
OF a tender voice and loving face;
But not for the soul whose goal is Won
Whose infinite Joy has just begun
Not for the spirit enrobed in light
And crowned where the angels are a-nlght,.
Mother and daughter both are asleep,
While angels vigils around them keep;
Pale and pulseless but, oh SO fair,
They sleep with heavenly quiet there.
Their souls at rest, nor feel bereft
OF all they loved. and all they left:
Waken them not, SO cold and white,
Sleep sweetly, darling; goodnight, good night
There, there she will waken. and on her breast,
Lois smiles and COOS, caressed
Mothers lips and mothers fingers.
On Lois brow and forehead fingers.
Mamma and baby meet again
Where death in not, nor tears, nor pain:
Awaiting lis there in a world of delight
Emma and Lois, good night, good might.
ONE VINO LOVED THEM.

DREAMS OF THE DAYS GONE BY.

Dreams, come home to my heart again
With the memory of the past,
Come with your pleasure and your pain
And your hopes too bright to last.
Come from your hidden graves that lie
In the beautiful realms of the days gone by;
Come from your glorious graves that lie
In the realms of the days gone byl
Twill welcome ye all again,
AS once in the halls of Ed,
Welcome the pleasure and the pain
For the beauty your brief lives held.
Dreams come out of your secret graves
In the woodland wilds and the dim sea
caves;
Dreams, come out of your myriad graves
In the wilds and the dim sea caves!
Ye throng the halls of my heart once more
With faces sad with pain.
Oh, faded ghosts of the dreams of yore,
The joy comes not again.
Go back to your mournful graves that lie
In the shadowy realms of the days gone by;
Go back to your voiceless graves that lie
III the realms of the days gone byl

When Phyllis Came.

When Phyllis came, the clustered lights
Blazed to newer, finer flame,
And starred my most preferred of nights
Burning into the dark, her name.
When Phyllis came, stood and marked
How all the sombre things and base
Grew suddenly to cherished worth,
Lit by the glory of her face
When Phyllis came, reached the height
Ofmortal blisses, unconfessed;
And quickly coined from minted praise
thousand poems, unexpressed.
But, Phyllis went-as all must go
Called by the hours dreaded chime,
And left me eursing, that we win
So few sweet moments out of Time.
And thus guage my joy, my woe;
The glow, the gloom the song, the knell-
When Phyllis came, burst of light;
When Phyllis went, shadow fell.

Our Wonderful Water

@'Richland," a gifted young man OF
Brunswick, who has rare gifts in the line
of dialect, writes me the foil owing;
Mr.. EDIToR:-Apropos of the water
question, the following is most too good to
keep. | give it to you for what it's worth
A town darkey with cup in hand, was
standing by one of the artesian wells 8
short time since, when country darkey
jumped off his wagon and asked him to al
low him the use of his cup to get drink
of water. When the country darkey had
swallowed the water, he emacked his lips
and said "Golly, dat waters good, sho''
you BON"
Mr.. Town Darkey, with an air of grea
Importance, replied: "In course hits good
hits boun' ter be good, fur hit come 400
feet from der ntrils of der yerth, and hit
been scandlized by der bes' gumnas from
der State anniversary an what yer thinl
he says hits got in hlt?"
81 Dunno replied the country darkey
smacking his lips after swallowing another
pint or so of the water.
swell, he says dere is ten grains of OK
hide, ten grains -bonic gas, ten grain
fox-furus acid, and seventy grains hydro

One Touch OF Nature.

They came from three points of the COM
pass-there were three of them-met by
merest chance in place of quiet loungers
the man with the monocle, the bearded
individual with his legs crossed, and the
gay young fellow who wrote things.
The man with the monocle looked mex
pressibly sad; and his neighbor of the
crossed legs looked dejectedly morose.
Occasionally, the monocled one sighed
deeply, at which times the cross-legged,
one always responded with a muttered
oath.
But the young fellow who wrote things
was voluble. From the troubles of his
companions he was most provokingly free.
He had run through all the topics of poll
tics, science, literature and art, and had
reached the inviting gateway of another
theme.
There was woman"
The man with the monocle hurled his
cigar-stump into space and the bearded
Individual made bis undermost leg the up
permost.
eyes, there was a woman" said the
young fellow who wrote things. "a wo-
man who loved a man. And the man
didn't know and the woman dared not
tell. The man likewise loved the woman
but, in this case, the woman, curse her
couldn't understand, and the man, d
him, held his tongue. Shall we drink"
The speaker acted as the pourer of the
liquor; drank his at a gulp and while the
others slipped, continued
"And, as the story runs, the man and
woman couldn't agree. Fate interposed.
The woman met another man, Who thought
he loved her. The real lover was reticent
He kept his peace-and the woman did
not explain. She married the stranger.
The sequel is written in the poetry OF Re
grst. Such was the Sin of Silence"
The man with the monocle stared sui
lenly into the outer darkness, and said:
That was the woman loved and lost g
And the bearded individual with the
crossed legs uncrossed them suddenly, and
muttered:
"No-that was the woman 1 wooed and

THE TRUTH ABOUT 1T.
What Is the Use of Living if You Can't
Be In 1t?

What Is the Use of Living if You Can't
BE In 1t?
Yes, Erastus, we have noticed that
article in a scientific journal advising
people to sleep more i'll order to live
long, and to tell you the truth we take
but little stock in it. We notice that
Tesla, the great electrician, claims that
man might live to be 200 years old if
he would only sleep most of the time.
And suppose he should. What would
man amount to sleeping like fat dog
in the summer? For all practical pur-
poses man might as we'll be dead as
to be asleep. with this advantage in the
way of being dead-he isn't in any
body's road.
Suppose a man lived for 200 years
and slept 100 of it. He can only figure
out when the thing is through that he
has really lived 40 years, and in that 40
he neither cuts as much ice nor has half
the fun the man has who passes in his
checks at so and out of the 60 has only
slept 30 years. Is there any particular
object, my boy, in simply lying round
asleep for 80 years, wearing out bed
clothes and saving trifie on funeral
expenses? We think not. All there is
in life worth living for you get while
you are awake. All the time you ought
to spend asleep is just enough to enable
you to keep awake the rest of the time.
Sleep is necessary evil, just so
much good time that you have to give
up in order to keep your stomach, liver
n.,l %ha,. -, 4,:. IL
course we have read good deal about
beautiful dreams, when angels hover
overhead and all that, but our expert
ence is that this talk is almost alto
gether rot. When you are in good phys
ical condition, you don't dream. When
you dream, the angels aren't in that
vicinity. 1t is when you have filled
your interior with fatted swine and
boiled cabbage that you retire to sleep,
| perchance to dream. To dream-aye,
there is the rub!--when you feel four
headed dog sitting upon your vitals and
know that the horned and cloven tailed
whangdOodle from the barren mountains
Of Hepsidam is crawling upon you,
breathing smoke and fire, and you are
| paralyzed, or you seem all at once to
| find yourself in the midst of some gay
and cultured assembly with no clothing
on your person except perhaps a paper
collar and pair of hose supporters and
utterly unable to explain to the ladies
and gentlemen present why you are
there in this decollete costume or to
take your departure.
There is nothing angelic or heavenly
about the average dream. On the con-
trary, it is hades and repeat. The young
man who has to be routed out of bed at
Dor 10 o'clock in the morning may 1--we
a good while, but the chances are that
he won't amount to as much in life as
a three legged dog ill jack rabbit
chase. The proper thing, young fellow,
is to sleep less and get hump on your
self, even if you should pass out before
you are 90. One year of life spent in
knocking rich, ripe, luscious persim-
mons is worth five sleeping in the shade
with the worms crawling over your per-
son and the timber bugs trying to roll
you out of their way.-Tom McNeaI in
Topeka Mail.

From the Limitation of Christ" BY Thomas \

Be at peace first in yourself and
then you Will be able to bring
others into peace. A peaceful man
does more good than a learned man.
A passionate man ever turns good
into evil, and easily believes evil,
lie who Is truly at peace never sus-
poets others, but he who is ill at ease,
and discontinued, is disturbed by var
ious suspicious. Neither does he rest
himself, nor let others rest; he often
says what he ought not, and often
omits what he ought to do. He busies
himself about what others ought to
do, and neglects his own duty. Let

yout zeal begin upon yourself, and
then you may with justice extend it
to your neighbors. You know well
enough how to excuse and palIiate
your own faults, but you are not will
ling to accept excuses for others. 1t
would be more just were you to ex-
cuse yourself, and excuse your broth
er. If you wish to be borne with your
self bear with others. See what dis
lance you are as yet from that true
charity and humility which admit of
Indignation or anger with no one ex-
cept with yourself. 1t is no great
thing to live peacefully with the good
and gentle; for this is naturally pleas
ing to all, and everyone likes to be at
peace and prefers those who agree
with them. But to be able to live in
peace with those who are hard and
obstinate or who are undisciplined
and contrary, Is great grace, and a
highly praiseworthy and manly line
of conduct, There are some who
neither have peace themselves nor
leave others in peace; these are bur-
den to Others and a greater burden to
themselves. And others who live in
peace, and endeavOr to BRING others
into the same condition. And yet all
our peace in this life is to consist in
humbly bearing, not in escaping, the
things we do not like. He who knows
how to suffer Alright, will be the one
to enjoy the greater measure of peace.
Such man has gained victory over
himself, and is master of the world,
and friend of Christ. and heir of
Heaven.
