SONG OF THE DRUM.

Do you hear my summons hammer thro'
the crackle and the clamor.
Do you feel my throb and thrill?
When / meet the smell of powder, oh, my
merry note grows louder,
And my song shall not be still.
Follow, each beside his fellow, meath the
vapors gray and yellow,
Wildly cheering, sternly, dumb,
And rumble, rumble, rumble, when the
smoke wreaths toss and tumble.
You shall hear the rolling drum. Fol-
low the drum!
Men forget their fears and follies as they
face the binding volleys,
And the young recruits they come,
With their simple sunburnt faces, from
the quiet country places,
To the call of me, the drum.
Come, plowboy, lad and carter, and your
life blood freely barter,
For the bullet sure for some,
And rattle, rattle, rattle, through the din
and roar of battle,
You shall hear the rolling drum. Fol-
low the drum!
When the boys that follow fast there.
drop aside and fall at last there,
From the surging lines of red,
Then no more Of pomp and ruff1e, my notes
awhile muffle,
And moan and mourn the dead.
But the losing battle needs me, and the
whistl!ng bullet speeds me;
Through the reeling ranks I come,
And clatter, clatter, clatter, where the
broken regiment scatter,
You shall hear the rolling drum. Fol-
low the drum!

RED HOT METEOR.
eF Living Near Farming.
dale, n. J.

Frederick Megill, o farmer living near
Farmingdale, N. j., was blowing in his
field, Thursday afternoon, when his at
tention was attracted to peculiar hiss
ing noise, apparently coming from the
sky. Turning around he was dazzled
by fash like lightning, and almost
immediately bright object rushed
past him and bored it's way into the
ground few feet from where he stood.
Megill was panic-stricken and ran to
a nearby swamp, where he remained in
hiding for some time. He summoned
up enough courage after awhile to 60
for William Tolly, who was working
not far away, and together they made
a search for the cause of the disturb
ance.
They found large, red hot meteor
in deep hole in the earth. Leading up
to it was long furrow which the
meteor had plowed in the ground. In
the line of the furrow was an oak
stump, which the meteor had splin-
tered. 1t is said to be one of the largest
meteors which ever fell on Jersey soil.

GIRLS LOCKED OUT.
Two Fair Students at Rockford Col.
lege in a Sad Plight.
Make q Clandestine visit to the City
and Find the Doors Barred ON
Their Return Late Mt
Night.

Rockford (Ill.) college for women,
and, for that matter, Rockford itself,
is torn up by dissension over the HARM
less misadventure of two young women
of the institution the other night. One
Of them IL said to be relative of Miss
Jane Addams. of Hull house, Chicago,
and that lady is now in Rockford try
ing to adjust the affair.
The two girls, who are both eastern
ers, are said to have been expelled from
the college as result of the affair.
The other night a big concert for the
benefit Of the college was given in the
Second Congregational church and
most of Rockford and practically all of
the college attended. The college build
lngs were left untenanted. The two
young women, to whom the trouble
later came, decided in the absence of all
their friends to visit some acquaint-
ances in the town. To make their re-
turn to college easy one of the doors was
left open.
The faculty of the college returned
after the concert, and some of its MEM
bers securely locked all the doors. Five
or ten minutes later, a little belated,
the two girls returned from their
friends house and attempted to get
into the college by the door they had
left ajar. 1t was locked. Consterna-
ton sat upon their faces as they looked
at one another. First they attempted
to get in through windows without
awakening anyone, but all the frames
were securely fastened.
Then they rang the bell, raped on
the door-even pounded on. it with
stones-but not a person responded to
their alarm. The girls went all about
the building in the dark seeking some
way of entrance, and then, very much
frightened. they slipped through the
lonely streets back to the house Of the
friend they had been visiting. There
they woke the family, the friend being
married woman, and she gave them
shelter for the night.
On their return to the college there
was great hullabaloo by some of the
older women among the faculty, and
Miss Addams was called from Chicago
TO assist her relative. She found that
the entire affair was harmless, but it
was not certain what the outcome
would be.

DISCOVERS ELECTRIC FLUID.
"ElectrOis" Causing q Great sensa-
tiOn in EurOpe-Latest Dis
cOvery at Thebes.

The London letter says that the
weeks discoveries have been most in
teresting. ,Rychnowsky, the electric
clan of Lemberg, claims to have dis
covered an electric fluid which he calls
"clectrois." The discovery has caused
q great sensation on the continent. He
obtains 1t by electrolysis; but 1t is not
identical with electricity. Its effects
are declared to be startling, producing
light and causing Geissler tubes to
emit fuorescent rays. 1t works pho
tochemically, rotates objects in midair,
produces whirlpools in water and kills
bacteria. Metal and glass thereby can
be charged with electricity, and the
magnet needle changes directly under
its influence.
From Egypt came reports of the dis
covery at Thebes of the tombs of Amen
ophis H., who reigned B. c. 1900, of
Thotmes w., of Amenophis III. and
Rameses w., v. and vi. All the bod
les are said to be in q splendid state Of
preservation.

SEEKS A DIVORCE.
She was Hypnotisetl when She
Married an Indian Doctor.

Miss Harriet Hall Bedlow Morris,
whose marriage 10 John Rex Guelph
Norman, an East India doctor, on March
90. caused sensation in Newport and
in Boston, has decided to separate from
her husband, and divorce proceedings
will soon be begun.
Mrs. Norman is the daughter of the
late Henry Bedlow, at one time mayor
of Newport, r. |. She was married to
the late Commander Francis Morris,
U. s. N, and was noted for her beauty
in the society of Rhode Island and of
southern Europe, where her husband
was stationed.
She formed the acquaintance of Nor
man during his attendance on her
daughter in the character of a physi-
clan. He came from Montmein, India,
and first attracted attention by attempt
ing to cure Charles B. Rouss of blind
ness. He was much younger than Mrs.
Morris, who is a woman of large wealth.
The wedding was secret, being per-
formed by Judge Pardon E. Tillinghast
In private chambers in Providence, R. /.
The woman's friends were astonished
when they heard of it, and could ac-
count for It only on the theory that
the doctor" had exerted some hypnotic
influence over her.
Mrs. Norman has now come to the
same conclusion. After the wedding
her husband went with her to Boston,
where she occupied an apartment in
the Tuileries, in Commonwealth av-
enue. His first care was to visit his
wife's legal adviser and make inquiries
concerning her property.

The story Of the Game mt LynchburG
Yesterday.

LYNCHBCRG. VA, April 26.-(SpeciaL)
The story Of the game of baseball plays
ed here this afternoon between the teams
of Washington and Lee University ana
the University of Virginia is quickly told.
The play was sharp and quick from start
"a finish. and when the boys laid down
their bats the score stood ? to in favor
OF the young men from Charlottesville.
Owing TO threatening weather the at
tendance was not large, but the excite
ment of the game made everybody en-
thusiastic, and in the intense interest
aroused the absence of sunshine was Tor
gotten. Pratt did the twirling for Wash
ing and Lee. and his splendid work con-
tributed materially TO the fine showing
made by his team. In point Of size there
was considerable contrast between the
two teams-that of the University OF VIZ
ginia consisting Of large, heavy men,
while the Washington and Lee boys were
comparatively much smaller. The Lex
lngton lads. however, were not lacking In
agility. and their work I'm the field was
drst-class in every particular. Pinkerton
pitched fine. steady game for Virginia.
and his support was perfect Washing
ton and Lee scored only In the first IN
ming. and Virginia tied the score I'm the
fourth Thus il stood until the end OF
the ninth. when Virginia jumped on
Pratt and pounded out the game. The
bases were full when the winning run
was made. Score in detail is as follows:
