strange Obstinacy of Mex cam.

Thursday evening as the express
train of the Mexican Central was ap-
preaching this city, the engineer OBJ
served an Indian shepherd lying ON the
track. The engineer whistled five or
six times, but the man would not get
up, and it was impossible to stop the
engine in time. The pilot of the loco
motive struck the head of the PROSTATE
man and rolled him down the embank-
ment.
When the train was stopped and the
conductor and some of the passengers
alighted to look to the man it was found
that, though he had suffered a rather
severe scalp wound, he was not danger
ously injured He was able to sit up
while his head was bound with his
wife's reboZO. Some of the passengers

appeared, and it made such an impress
sion that she was hailed as one Of the
greatest poets of the century.
Poems of Jean Ingelow' appeared
at an opportune time to attract atten-
ton. TennysOn had been silent for a
long time, and the novelty had worn
off Longfellow's "Tales of a Wayside
Inn" Her poems even ranked next to
Longfellow's and above Tennyson's at
that time. The English-speaking
world was especially captivated by
High Tide OFF the Coast of Lincoln
shire" a ballad cast in strange form,
so musical that it sang itself, so quaint
and tender and exquisite in its turn of
phrase that there was never a word
for its defects Her second volume of
poems, entitled "A Story of DOOM"
followed in 1867, and her third in 1885.
In addition to her poems she has writ
ten various prose works for children,
and four novels. Her Song of Seven"
Divided" and "Laurance" are sup
posed to be autobiographical. Many of
her verses were set to music. Among
these is "Oh, Fair Dove, Oh, Fond
Dove" the sweet but mournful tale of
a sailors love. ''Mopsa, the Fairy" was
a fantasy that attracted much atten-
ton. Then followed her first novel,
loft the Skelligs," her best work in
that line, but Miss Ingelow is known
to the present generation only as 3
poet.

Secret in Naval Circles.

Great secrecy is observed over the
construction of a number of shallow
draft gunboats now building for the
British government by the Yarrows.
The destination of the boats, as well
as the model, is being kept dark. They
may be for China, the Nile, or the
Niger, though some believe that they
are to be used on the Zambesi in the
event of war with the Transvaa1.
