LET Is LIVE BY THE WAY.
In the youth Of the heart
Ere the glorious ray
That was born of life's morning
Hath faded away.
While the light fingers yet
In the eyes that are dear.
And the voices We love
Sill remain with us here;
While the warm blood leaps up,
And the forest resounds
With tho tread OF the horse
And the bay of the hounds.
Oh. ever and always.
SO long a. We may.
AS We journey through life
Let us live by the way.

That In mirth or I'm sorrow
Has strength for each day
And hope for each morrow,
With smiles for the future.

As We Journev through life
Let us live by the way.

the mansion at Mount Vernon are small
glass knobs with sockets drilled INTO
them which fit little spikes, but do not
fasten on. 1t is perfectly natural for
visitors to place their hands upon the
knobs. and those who do Immediately
perceive that they can be taken off. The
next step is TO slip them quietly into the
pocket and carry them away as relics
of the sacred place. Although an at
tendant is employed to watch this room,
there are so many visitors that 1t Is
impossible for him to prevent such pilfer-
ing, and the glass knobs have to be re-
placed two or three times a week during
the busy season. but that costs very little
trouble and expense. A factory near
Pittsburg turns them out for 30 cents
gross. and Mr.. Dodge is in the habit of
ordering a barrel of them every spring.
There are several thousand Of these glass
knobs scattered over the world, in mu-
seums and private collections of memen-
tos and historical relics Many more are
doubtless concealed for reasons of con-
science and fear of discovery, but the
guilty persons need have no concern. The
original knobs that belonged to the bed
are safely laid away In a vault, and If
they need more of the same kind they
can order them from the factory at Pitts
burg.

Voluntary Confession.

1t becomes evident from a story which
is said to have originated in Western
New York that there are widely vary
ing ideas In existence as to what con-
stitutes voluntary testimony on any sub
iect.
Ibid I understand you to say that this
boy voluntarily confessed his share In
the mischief done to the school-house?'

mlned-looking female parent OF a small
and dirty boy who was charged with
having been concerned In recent raid
upon an unpopular schoolmaster.

G. c. Constantine. OF the Northwestern
Mounted Police, allowed each OF his men
to file locations, a privilege or which
needless TO say, they were not slow TO
take advantage.
Thus Constable r. Gowler became the
owner of half Of lot So above Bonanza,
besides interests on Ell Dorado and Hun
ker creeks. l.. Jenkins staked out a
claim known as No. 80 above bonanza
in addition to which he owns one half
of another claim below Discovery; ana
John Murray is the proud possessor OF
one half shares in claim "a on Ei DORADO
80 above on Bonanza, and ii below on
bunker.
Then there are A. Ward who owns 80
above on Bonanza and an interest In NO.
so above; Fred. Webster, who Is the
proprietor of 81 above and substantial
interest in 81 below and j. Brothers,
who is the sole owner of 81 above.
A. Pinkerton and II. Sinclair have re-
fused an offer of $4,000 for good claims
below Discovery, which they still hold,
while A. p. Cellar, who staked out or
Bonanza, disposed of his claims at
very good price last winter. Another
member of the force named j. Thornton
possesses a claim on Adams creek, De-
sides an interest on Bonanza.

policemen are worth anything between

that they may well constitute the richest

A Horrible Pastime.
0llustrated American)


An ordinary bull-fght, as Ii occurs
every few days In the large cities of
Spain, means the slaughter Of six bulls,
one after the other, and the butchering
OF from fifteen to thirty horses. This Is
dreadful enough. But when, in addition
to that, a man is tossed on the brute's
horns, and torn open and mangled and
killed, 1t is monstrous. Such casualty.
fortunately, seldom happens, but 1t was
my fate to be present when the first
toreador OF Spain. the brave, dashing,
fascinating young Espartero, was killed
and the spectacle which | had before my
eyes on that memorable day will never

AN ODD TOMBSTONE.
Massachusetts Man Has n Miniature
MIL over His Grave.

lNeW 1OIh IlIuSSsJ
IT has often been said that movement
which to some degree represents a mans
life work is his most fitting tombstone.
Seldom, however, has an attempt been
made 10 carry out this idea with such
realistic exactness as was, done few
years ago in Oak Grove Cemetery at
Fall River, Mass, by one of the large
mill-owners of that city. AS the visitor
proceeds through the southeastern side
OF the cemetery he sees a quaint little
granite structure, looking at first glance
I'm the distance like an enlarged dolls
house. with windows and peaked roof,
but as he draws near enough 10 eaten
the view of the great stone cotton-mllls
in the city below the full significance
Of II flashes upon him. 1t is mil,

are so distinctive n feature Of Fall River.
II Is a solid mass of stone, about nine
feet high. seven and a half feet long,
and four feet wide, representing three

the sole ornament and their panes OF
highly polished stone stand out in marked
contrast TO the rougher nnlsn OF the res'
Of the structure. There are SIX wlnooWs
ir each tier on both sides OF the nttle
mill while in front the row Is varied py
a central door. Such doors are pldceu
on the different stories of the cotton
print factories for ease in loading ana
unloading goods, and so minutely has the
imitation been carried out that rounu Key
holes have been drilled in the middle Oh
each of the doors represented on the
monument. u,o,,s
The man who conceived this curious
tombstone was F. II. Stafford, Formerly
mart owner OF the Stafford Mills. IL was
his wish to have the work with whlch nc
WAS so long identified commemorated IN
this way. and, accordingly the monument
vas erected soon after his doath On 1851;
