A gentle flower In the forest grew,
Where nevera soul It's sweetness knew;
And It's upturned eyes with beauty bright
Ne'er glowed with responsive loves delight.
1t wlthercd and died, unmarked unsung,
When low In the sky the pale sun hung
still the wild-birds called on joyous wing,
So its life seemed but a wasted thing.
Yet the wind had taken its pure sweet breath
And borne It away TO n room OF death,
Where 1t gllded in with the setting sun.
And calmcd the the soul OF dying one.
For It banished OF unbellef the wrath,
And restored to the soul a child like faith:
"Consldsr the lilies how they grow
You have nodded your head when
your beloved Emerson wrote about
ideals and their values. But bowing
the head is not bowling the heart,
and it is heart-worship alone of an
ideal in life, that will make you walk
buoyantly and triumphantly the SOL
itary path. Teachers are of all peo.
pie most miserable if their horizon
is bounded by anything less than
helpfulness to the nation. The four
walls OF your room too often seem to
shut you off from the world some
weary day, dear women, when nerves
have been strained almost to the
screaming point, and you dear men,
when to yield to anger would be joy,
close your eyes on the post of duty
that for moment seems dreary and
let your imagination run free. Then
will you quickly see that you are not
called to carve insensate blocks, but
to lead forth" individualities that
the children who under your care
grow to knowledge Of themselves
are potential elements in the nation
al life; that the work you do is being
duplicated in hundreds of thous.
ands of other little school houses,
and that the aggregate of all the work
done is making or marrying our
national future. Does the brick
layer ask for admiration over one
brick well laid in the wall of some
towering? No, he goes on to anoth-
er, being careful to align his work to
the work of all the rest You too,
unpraised and yet content, because
possessed by your ideal, will 60 on
with your good work, transmitting
the dull clay of duty into golden op.
portunity. The routine of arith-
metic and the strange mouthing of
phonics will then be changed from
items IN scheme of teaching, to
valued portions of our national bull
warks.
Let no man despise you for good
reason glorify your Office; try to
rise to the demands of the age :;
work for twentieth century to
dawn on a generation of right think
ing children ; having done all, gulp
down that clamoring cry for praise,
and be content to have lived a. q

tration, when General Leggett of Ohio
was commissioner of patents. Many in
ventors, or at least persons who supposed
that they were inventors, had it very b;.1,
and there was scarcely week that some fly
ing machine fellow did not turn up or write
to the patent office. The great majority
of them never even went so far as to make
odel, but contented themselves with
le drawings explaining their ideas Of
II locomotion. All of them were poor
.t,d wanted the patent office to furnish
me money to build their machines. l re-
member one fellow in particular. He was
well known to General Leggett and served
under him in an Ohio regiment during the
war. He telegrnphed General Leggett
from Urbana, O.: Hold patent on flying
machine until arrive. Refuse all applica-
tons until you have seen mine The
general answered him, by mail, however,
that the Office would consider anything he
had to offer, or words to that effect. Then
there came from the inventor daily let.
ter for couple of weeks describing tho
invention with great detail To cut off
the supply of letters, the general wrote
him a personal letter, with the idea of
cooling him down, but 1t had the opposite
effect, for it was followed by the announce
ment that the inventor would arrive here
in few days and would give an exhibit
ton of the machine. The man did come
and with him came his machine. In shape
it was like sugar hogshead, with the
customary wings of nearly all flying ma
chimes. 1t was light and was made of
white cotton covering "a spiral steel frame
Nothing would suit the inventor except
that the patent office should take q short
recess, while every one connected with it
could go ont and see the machine fly from
the street porch of the building. The
general finally persuaded him that the first
exhibition should not be so publicly given
and that he and few others would exam
inc the machine that afternoon after office
hours. About O'Clock half dozen or
more repaired to the T street porch, and
tho inventor, after screwing up half doz
Ell or SO springs and counterbalances, an
Dounced that he was ready to fly the Won
der. 1t was supposed that he intended to
go up in it, but he soon dispelled that
idea by saying that the machine he had
was but a miniature model of what he In
tended to make, but that 1t was sufficient
to show what could be done.
Finally he let her go, aud to tho surprise
of every one the machine flew nicely up
in the air and across + street. By mis-
calculation it struck the corner of the post
office department building very hard and
fell in the area "a mass Of broken metal,
smashing itself into dozen pieces The
inventor ran across to look at the rem
nants, and by the time he had returned to
explain the cause of the disaster the port
CO was deserted 1t was an Ohio idea,
General Leggett remarked, and it was one

WHAT SAILOR MEN TALK Of
MARlPOSA ARRIVES FROM TuE
COLONIES.
Bark George f. Manson Makes II Fine
Run-No Australia Nct-Gossip Of
the City Front.

The bark Kosciusl<o left Newca stle
on July 2yth for this port, with 1895
tons of Dunkenfield coal.
The James Makee arrived from Ka-
paa this morning with 5Oi bags IF
rice and % bags of peanuts.
The Tillie f. Starbuck is loading
coal at Newcastle for this port. The
w. II. Talbot has been chartered to
load.
The Waialeale is back again from
Lahaina, but is booked for Il run up
the Hawaii coast after load of sugar,
starting this afternoon.
Chief Engineer Louis Wesner of the
lwalani will leave for the Coast on
the Mariposa, to be absent for several
weeks on "A pleasure trip.
The Mariposa brought lot Of
stores for the Penguin, which leads
to the belief that the survey ship will
shortly return to this port.
The Martha Davis is faring rather
badly. She received 5000 bags of sug-
ar as soon as she could make room for
them, but has not had any since.
The Andrew Welch is taking sugar
at the railroad wharf. She will shift
over to Brewers this afternoon, where
she will top off from schooner and
be ready for sea by Saturday.
The Kaala returned from the other
side of the island this morning with
800 bags of rice. She will soon I'M
dertake the shipment of 10000 feet
of lumber to Haaula for DR.. Carriers
new house, soon to be erected there.
The Mariposa was 20 miles south
when first reported at 6 o'clock last
night At s o'clock she was tied up
to the wharf. 1t was pretty fast work
for an after dark job. She came down
the channel with bone in her teeth.
The Australia was anXiously cX-
pected this morning, but did not nut
in an appearance. Nothing definite
as to her sailing date can be learned,
except that at last accounts she was
expected to be two or three DAYS
Late
The Hawaii came in on one of her
periodical visits this morning, with
50 head of cattle from Sam Parker's
ranch, a broken roller, and a lot of
miscellaneous freight. She will sail
again Saturday afternoon for Hawaii
ports.
The American bark George F. Man
son, Captain p. Crack, arrived last
night from Newcastle, after passage
of A days, having left on the same
day as the Lizzie Vance. She anchor
ed outside last night, but was towed
in this morning. The Manson brings
1920 tons of coal to Castle & Cooke.
She has made one of the best runs
of the year.
The Mariposa, although not due I'M
til today, was expected yesterday, and
she did not disappoint the people, for
she was alongside at s o'clock last eve
ming. She had pleasant voyage, hav-
ing left Sydney on the 2nd, Auckland
on the 18th and Apia on the 18th. She
brought very little freight for this
port, but will take away a big deck
load of bananas.

AN UNKNOWN SUICIDE
FOUND DYING IN THE BRUSH
AT SANTA MONICA
Had Shot Himself in the Head and
Breast-No Clue to His
Identity

An employe around the Santa Monica
wharf. Pete Badillo by name, yesterday
found gruesome find in the brush back
of the long wharf on Santa Monica
heights. At 10 o'clock he came across the
rapidly decomposing remains of an un-
known man about 35 years of age, sandy
hair and mustache, height feet, inch
.es, and weight about 1855 pounds. The
man had evidently been dead five or six
days. There was bullet wound on the
left side of his head and also a similar
puncture in his left breast. BY his left
side lay 3Sscalibre American bulldog
pistol, and his right arm was crossed
over his left breast.
An examina tion of the body and the
surroundings left no doubt that the man
met deat tn by his own hand. BY his side
also lay bottle of red wine three parts
full. The coroner was notified and held
an inquest at Santa Monica yesterday
afternoon, the jury returning a verdict
of suicide. The remains were not identi-

A little romance which had it's in
ception in this city several weeks ago
Is noted In a dispatch from Yosemite
to the San Francisco Examiner. The
dispatch says that Count Preben Ahle-

majesty, Is making tour of the Unite

gagged to marry William Garrett of Co.

The friend of King Christian has told
the lady Of his title his vast wealth,
the prominence of his father in parlia :
ment and of his frienship with the king.
All these things, however, have failed to
win the beauty, her reply to all the
counts appeals being that she proposes

to be true to her betrothed to the last.
The count is now getting desperate.
Under the spray of Bridal falls today he
presented Miss Ross with magnificent
ruby and made her promise of many
prettier stones. Her refusal to accept
gifts from the nobleman cut no figure.
They were simply thrust upon her. The
count has created the sensation of the
day, and an army Of young women are
pursuing him.

A Practical Joke and Lawsuit

A practical joke which had serious
consequence recently gave rise to a re-
markable lawsuit which came be fore Mr.
Justice Wright of the queens bench di-
vision in London for determirat tion The
plaintiff husband left his wife at home
and went to the races. While thus ab-
sent the defendant went to the wife ard
told her that her husband had been se-
rously injured on his way back, that
he was lying hurt at certain public
house, and that he wanted her to come
for him with cab at once, with pillows
and other suitable appliances, as both
his legs had been broken in the accident
The statement was wholly false, as the
husband had suffered no injury what
ever The physical effects of the fright
which the news produced upon the wife,
however, We're very serious. The COM
pla int alleged, and the evidence tended
to show, that her hair turned suddenly
white, that she. became very i'll, SO that
she nearly Lost her reason, and that she
underwent weeks of suffering as. direct
consequence of the Defendants practical
joke The court held that she was en-
titled to recover damages for these
physical results of the fright which sine
experienced, and sustained a verdict of
$500 in her favor.-New York Sun.
