lie said he loved me. Then he called my hair
Silk threads wherewith sly Cupid strings
his bow,
Ny cheek rose leaf fallen on new snow,
And swore my round, full throat would bring

Uses no grizzled cords upon his bow.

Plead s2r his kiss with checks whence long

The early snowflakes melted quite away,
The rose leaf dead, and in whose sallow clay
Lies the deep sunken track of LIES gaunt

When this full throat shall waffle fold on fold,
Like some ripe peach left dying on n wall,
Or like a spent accordion, when all
Its music has exhaled, will love grow coldG

The Death Watch.

In 1853 l had two chums of the name
of Seth and Cicero Dodge, who lived down
in the forks Of Coon about four miles be-
low us. The boys were hauling wood to
town, and they told me that the woods
down in the forks were alive with squir
rels, and that if would 90 back with them
that evening they would get their father
TO let them have the next day off, and we
would have lots Of fun. l went home and
got my No. IA muzzle loader, plenty of
ammunition and my dog, and went home
with them. Father Dodge had built "a new
frame house, but it was not large enough
to accommodate the family and any stran-
gers, so Cicero and | slept out in the old
log house. l shall never forget the scare
we got that night. AS boys WILL we lay
there long time discussing the various
propositions that suggest themselves to
two boy chums who haven't seen each
other for some time. Along toward mid
night we thought we discovered the pres
ence of somebody under our bed. To make
it more certain, we distinctly heard the
ticking Of his watch. We became uneasy,
for the ticking of that watch was regular
and incessant. AT last Cicero quietly slip
ped out of bed, went over to the new house
and called his father, who came and in.
vestigated. Much TO our chagrin, the old
gentleman soon discovered that the cause
of our dread and forebodings was only a

MExIco,s WILD HOG.
He d the Nest Vicious and Fearless OF
the Brute Creation.


"The most vicious and fearless of the
brute creation is the peccary, or wild hog
of Mexico" said G. w. Bartlett of Laredo,
Tex. "This animal seems utterly devoid
of the emotion of fear. l have never seen
It turn hairs breadth out of its path for
any living thing. Man Is its special bette
noir. 1t displays an intelligence In fight
ing the human strangely ct variance with
its apparently complete lack of any mental
attributes save the very lowest order Of
instinct. They are rarely found singly,
but go in droves of from hundred to
thousands. Their ability to scent men Is
particularly marked. / have known q
drove of them to scent "a man a mile off
and strike as straight for him as the arrow
flies. There Is no use to try To brighten
them with guns. The cannonading of a
full battery would have no more effect on
them than the popping of a firecracker.
The only thing to do when they get after
you is to run away from them as fast as a
horse can carry you. And then there Is no
certainty that they won't catch you. They
are nearly as swift as horse, and their
endurance Is as great as their viciousness.
"A friend of mine encountered drove
of them in wild part of Mexico few
years ago and his escape was miraculous.
He very foolishly shot and wounded q
number of them. Then he took refuge in
a tree. The pecoaries kept him in the tree
all that day and through the night. They
circled around the tree, grunting and
squealing their delight at the prospect Of
a feast. He soon exhausted his ammuni-
ton, and brought down peccary at each
fire. But this had no terrors for the
beasts. Along toward morning the brutes
began to eat the ones he had killed, and
when they thus satisfied the cravings of
their stomachs they formed in line and
trotted off. If they had not had some of
their own number to devour, they would
have guarded that tree until my friend,
through sheer exhaustion, dropped from
his perch and allowed them to make
meal off him. The wildcats and tigers
that infest the Mexican wilds flee from
the peccaries with instructive fear, and
even rattlesnakes keep out of their path"

DubuUue's Seal.

On the city seal of Dubuque, H., appear
the words, La petite mutt" and stran-
gers always are puzzled by them. Why
should Dubuque be called "the little
night?'' 1t Is explained that the place
originally was settled by an old miner
named Dubuque When the Indians
granted certain lands to Dubuque, the
document was drawn up in French at
Prairie du Chen. The clerk who did the
work believed that la petite mutt" meant
1.-THE old miner" and his mistake has per-
petuated "a phrase which, however pretty
has no significance in its present conneo-
ton. Chicago Times-Herald.

Diamonds and Light.

Professor William Crookes, in lecture
In London recently, called attention to the
fact that when diamonds are placed i'm a

tricity they shine with different colored
lights. He has seen them emit bright
blue, pale blue, apricot red, yellowsh
green, pale green and orange rays. One

Licenses Collected.

The officers have made a rough
estimate OH how the county and city
is ahead on the prize-ight in the
matter of licenses collected. Alto
gether during the month about $4,000
was turled in, and of this sum S17OO
was extra license by the fight and
taken out for gaming, etc. and $3.50
as the county's share OF the the three
one thousand dollar licenses taken
out by Stuart making the county
ahead on the deal $3.50. Out of
this, however, must DO taken the
extra expense which is placed at
abodt 5000. Every cent OF this
was paid out in Carson, giving un-
employed men work on the streets
aud the police force, etc., 30 the
county treasury is in round plumbers
the richer by reasIa Of the fight
having been held here in the vicinity
of $1700. In addition to this the
Safe gets S2700 as its share or the
piofits Of tho transaction and taken
all in all both county and State made
quite little sum.-Carson News.
