A Baby at ThirlY-Five.

4 dispatch from Cleveland, Ohio,
to the New York Herald says: In a
bed in the Cleveland General Hospital
is a strong man reduced to the mem
tai condition of an infant six months
old. The man is in the prime Of life.
He appears to be about thirty-fve
years old. He was taken from Nick
el Plate train. His actions while on
the train made the passengers and en-
ployes think him crazy.
At the hospital it was found that
the man is not hopelessly insane. He
is reduced to an absolute state of IN
fancy.
He said he was William Murray, of
Erie, Pa, and that he had been hurt
on the head" He had been confined
in hospital, but had wandered away.
Murray's body trembles constantly
and when he attempts to speak his
chin quivers as if he were about to
cry. He frequently leaps out of bed
and sits playing on the floor exactly
like child when it Is not yet strong
enough to walk He has fancy for
toys and plays with them for hours at
a time.
When a watch was handed to Muir
ray he laughed and crowed in an &C.
stacy of baby Joy and shook the watch
like a rattlebox. The next minute he
placed the watch in his mouth. A
rattlebox is one Of his prime favorites.
One of the pastimes in which Muir
ray INDUCES oftenest Is to sit on the
floor and play with his toes.
He eats and drinks like a baby and
tries to put in his mouth everything
he gets hold of Every phase of in
fant life is depicted in his acts.

Scattering the Enemy.

That he was from Cariboo there
was no doubt. Why, nuggets from
Omineca were nothing compared to
what "grew" in CariboO, neither for
gold nor "b'ars.
at was back in the sos when my
partner set out to do little work on
some ground we owned, and he had
to camp for the first night on the banks
of creek. He set out his pack, and
deposited at a safe distance several
sticks of giant powder, caps and fuse.
Then he went to the creek for pan
of water. While there he heard a
great rumpus, and, looking back, saw
big grizzly bear at his explosives.
He yelled and threw stones at it, but
the grizzly was too much fascinate d
with the sweet-tasting giant powder; !;
but when Bill began to fire larger
rocks Mr.. Bruin got down to business
and made for him.
BILL did not stop to discuss the
matter, but went up the nearest tree
like wild cat. Now, peculiar
thing about a grizzly bear is the fact
that it cannot climb a tree so Bill
felt safe, at least for a while. But,
though a grizzly is not a climber, ne
can play waiting game to perfection,
having that faculty abnOrmally devel-
oped; so he sat and waited for Bills
pleasure to descend Bill was much
happier, however, up above, and had
little use tor te. "A flma at that mo-
ment.
"Then the giant powder must have
occurred to the bear again, for he
walked over to where it was and COM
menced to gulp it down, taking for
desert the cap and fuse. Then he
camped at the foot of Bills tree again.
Bill was enjoying smoke, when a
happy thought struck him. A lump
of fuse was protruding from the griz-
zly's mouth, 50, reaching down as far
as he could, he knocked the burning
tobacco out of his pipe, and it fell on
the fuse. A few moments afterward
there was loud explosion, and Bill
descended to gather up enough bear
meat to keep him al! winter.

A Stairway Plated with Gold.

Gold has been used in house decora-
ton. but here is something which IN
splendor exceeds anything ever seen
in an American hOuse-a gold-plated
railing. The railing of the spiral stair
way and the balcony in George j..
Goulds new house at Lakewood, y. Jr
will be plated with the most precious
of all metals.
Much has been written about the
splendors of this palace which the
Young millionaire is building down
there among the pines. The foremost
architects and artists have contributed
to it, but this stair rail and balcony
will surpass anything Of the kind ever
attempted in this country. There are
legends of palaces where the soft light
was reflected from lamps of solid gold
and shades of alabaster. This dwell
ing down at Lakewood will equal in
splendor the palaces described by the
romancers who wrote the Arabian
Nights" Aladdin might have pic
tured such a hallway as that which
forms the entrance Of the house at
Lakewood. No slave of the lamp could
have called into being 90 splendid an
apartment as the hallway Of this mod
ern palace.
There are many beautiful stair rails
of wrought and polished iron in the
houses OF New Yorks millionaires.
Some Of these rails have gold plated
ornaments. The stair rail in the Gould
house will surpass all these, for 1t Is
gold-pIated from the first step of the
stairs to the last wreath of the balcony
front.-NeC York Herald.

The Faithful Shepherd.

A German shepherd boy named Ger
halt was watching his flock feeding IN
a valley on the borders OF forest
when hunter came out of the woods
and asked how far is it to the nearest
village. "Six miles said the boy,
"but it is only sheep track and Is
easily missed" The hunter looked at
the track and said MY boy, | am
hungry and thirsty. l have lost my
companions and missed my way. Leave
your sheep and show me the road and
I will pay you well for your trouble.
Il cannot leave my sheep, they
would stray into the forest and be eat
en- by wolves or stolen by robbers,
well, what of that, they are not
your sheep. The loss Of one or two
would not be much to your master,
and I will pay you more money than
yo,, corld earn in q wear"
~ cannot 90, sir. Nv master trusts
me and paws me for my time. If I
were TO sell YOU my time and the sheep
should get lost it would be the same
as if 7 had stolen them"
well said the hunter will YOU
trrst vonr sheen with me while Won
90 70 the village and get me some food
or3 drink and a guide. I will take
GOOD care Of them for YOU.
.Tba sheen said the bov, "do not
Lrow vonr voice and here Gerhalt
ransai
And what. said the hunter, can
Won trrst me2 Do 7 look like a dis
honest man ."

do not think l am mistaken. The
color faded slightly from her face.
"And the other girl?" she queried,
family.
You are the other girl.
The red replaced the white. She
stood quite still, with her eyes bent
downward, and then she began to
trace figures in the snow with the toe
of her tiny boot.
"Good by" repeated.
She looked up. "Of course, I am
very angry, she said. And then she
smiled and held out her hand. l took
it humbly and forgot to relinquish it.
Mamma will be getting anxious,
she remarked. 1--WE must hurry
But we did not hurry.

Il Cannot Be.

1t cannot be that He who made
This wondrous world for our delight,
Designed that all its charms should fad
And pass forever from our sight;
That all-shall wither and decay,
And know on earth no life but this,
With only one finite survey
OF all its beauty and its bliss.
1t cannot be that all the years
OF toll and care and grief we live,
Shall find no recompense but tears,
No sweet return that earth can give
That all that leads us TO aspire
And struggle onward to achieve,
With every unattained desire
Was given only to deceive.
1t cannot be that all the ties
OF kindred souls and loving hearts
Are broken when this body dies,
And the immortal mind departs;
That no serener light shall break
At last upon our mortal eyes,
To guide us as our footsteps make
The pilgrimage to Paradise.

which thoroughly cleanses the
