Born of the fond wish better things to see
Than these which plague us. If within

A veritable fossil, old and sere,
Is he who can no benefit discern
In changing for the better things that are
And ever villa be, slow. until reborn
Averse to change, opposed to all things
new,
Welded 10 theories moss-covered and old
Opposed in principle, to progress; through

No Hope, no spirlt-all is dark and drear
Cobwebs and rust prevail; the canker-
OF discomfort, unrest and envy, even pray
Unheiped by effort. fails these foolish
ones.
But for the new-Ife-giving power of
Change,
The onward movement of mighty world.
Opposed to SlOtn or duSnI WITHIN It's range,
Since the grand banner Progress was un-

Life may be worth the living. and the man
Who combines with his trust in God the

To better his condition if he can
Outstrips the man content with standing
still.
All Change is good If good within itself,
Even the Change comprised by Death
alone
Which frees the spirit from its earthly self,
And opens worlds, dreamed of, but still
unknown.
A Change of heart may make a better
man,
Bring him nearer to God; a Change of
ways
And means, may lengthen out the span
OF life, and brighten its remaining days.
Write me an Gin memoriam' to Hope
OF better things, while superstition rules.
And man is satisfied to sit and NOPE
In skeptc gloom, BETTING only fools.
Hope. born of Zeal and Good-intent, lies
buried here,
In a dark grave deep dug by idle hands.
Which knew no incentive to action good
but fear,
Thus subjugating her demands
To resurrection. HI"

Representative McCranie of Berrien says
that his bill TO repeal the 'possum law is
not joke but a very serious matter.
The "varmint' needs no protection, ac-
cording to his ideas, but, on the other
hand. the fewer of the species there are,
at least in Berrien. the better il viii be
for the farmers. In short. the possum
should go. 1t breaks into chicken coops
and destroys young chickens, it eats the
tops off the peanut vines and kills them,
it raids the gardens and eats the sass,
and does many other dsreputable things.
We have all along thought that less at
tention might have been paid to possums,
and more to sheep; but it seems that some
folks regarded 'possums as a political ne
cessity.

Santiago dispatch says that many
people are arriving here with letters from
senators. One man has virtually been ap-
pointed by Secretary Alger as collector
of customs at Manzanillo. He expects
about three times the salary of the Cuban

does. The American carpet-bagger is no
cheap man. Cuba is the last place he
would think of visiting for his health, and
with plenty of senatorial courtesy back

How One Engagement Was Broken.

now one Engagement Was Broken
l don't know why the simple fact of be-
ing in love should deprive people of the
Vestige Of common sense with which ma
ture, never overgenerous with that rarest
OF blessings, has endowed them, but all by
observation tends to confirm me in the
opinion that 1t does, says a writer in the
Washington Post. For example. a man
1 Know is engaged to Georgetown girl
Ihat is he was engaged to her up 10 a
quarter to 10 O'Clock Thursday night, week
before last. He went out to call on her ard
but hrst l must tell you that she belongs
TO Georgia family, and he is from Bos-
ton, and both of them are exceedingly
proud of their birthplace and ancestry.
After few preliminaries she said to him:
oh, let's hear now fast you can say,
She sells sea Shells
So, of course, he said, Sc shells sea
sells, and She sells she shells" and
goodness only knows what, till his tongue
was so tangled up that his mouth was full
of knots. And she began to laugh. and he
told her to say it herself. Then they both
went at it, and midway of their sybilant
mouthings somebody's temper began to get
frayed at the edges. She said that Boston
people speak abominably anyway, and he
retorted tu quoque about the Georgia dia-
lect. From discussion of speech they came
to discussion of manners, and things
were said which 1t were painful to re-
peat. The engagement was broken, as
said, at 9:45 O'Clock. 1t has staid broken
ever since. The rupture bids fair to be
permanent. And all this misery because
well, because two ordinarily intelligent
persons happened to be made temporarily
feeble minded by mutual affection.
