Mr.. Ford has some houses in Brooklyn,

To collect the rent and at last resolved to
send Mr.. Stone adrift.
"But If 1 am put out, Mr.. Ford" said
Stone, 81 can't move my duds. have no
money"
Mr.. Ford, being tender hearted, gave
him 81, and Stone moved out. Shortly
afterward Mr.. Ford appointed an agent to
attend to his rents. Everything went right
until one day Mr. Ford found that the
rent of certain house remained unpaid.
"The tenants all right, sir" said the
agent. "Hc's good man Of the name of
Stone, u mason, and he'll pay in day or
two.'
The owner called upon the backward
tenant and found that he was the same
Stone whom nc had evicted some months

IDENTITY IN FUNNELo.
Some Distinguishing Marks on the At
lsntic Ocean Steamships.

lsntic Ocean Steamships.
Watching outgoing and incoming ocean
steamships has become an interesting pas
time with thousands of persons who are
employed during the day in the tall office
buildings on the lower end of Manhattan
Island
With many persons the ability to identi-
fy the different vessels as they pass and re-
pass at distance Is matter Of proud sat
isfaction. A few sharp eyed ones become
20 expert by practice that they can distin.
guish peculiar marks on each vessel and
can tell at glance the difference between
a Cunarder and an American liner, a
North German Lloyd steamer or any 9th
er ocean liner.
1t is by the tunnels that most persons
are able to distinguish the vessels OF one
line from the vessels of another. Almost
every line has some popularity in color
about its funnel, 80 that the picking out
of vessels of different lines by long dis
tance observers is like picking ont horses
on the raciIke track by the colors of the
Jockeys caps. The Cunard line has red
funnel, with a black top; the American
lines tunnels are black, with white band;
the White Star, cream color, with black
top; the North German Lloyd, cream col
or; the Guion line, black, with broad red
band and black top; the National line,
white, with black top, and the State line,
light buff, with red band and black top.
The steamers of the Netherland line to
Holland have black tunnels, with two
green bands and white band in the cen
ter; the Atlas lines tunnels arc white,
with red and white band and black top;
the Pacific mail steamers, black; Clyde
line, black, with red band and black top;
Old Dominion line, black; Sumner line
red, with black top and two white bands;
Red I'D" line, black, with red letter ID in

The DARK MAN.

Rose o. the world. she came to my bed
And changed the dreams of my heart and head.
For Joy of mine she left grief Of hers
And garlanded me with o crown OF furze.
Rose o. the world, they go out and in
And watch me dream and my mother spin,
And they pity the tears on my sleeping face.
While my souls away in fairy place.
Rose o. the world. they have words galore.
And wide's the swing OF my mother door,
And soft they speak OF my darhened eyes.
But what do they know who arc all 80 wiser
Rose o'tho world, the pain you give
Is worth all days that man may live.
Worth all shy prayers the colloens say
On the night that darkens the wedding day.
Rose O. the world, what man would wed
When he might dream of your face instead2
Might go to his grave with the blessed pain
OF hungering after your face again?
Rose o. the world, they may talk their fill.
For dreams are good, and my life stands, still
While their lives red ashes the gossips stir,
But my fiddle knows, and talk to her.
