A "GRAVE" ADVERTISEMENT.
London Is Making Merry Over an At
tempt to Make n Cemetery
Attractive.

The much-debated grave advertise
ments" which the st. Pancras vestry
has planted with an eye to business, in
the various recreation grounds under
its control, were fund of delight to
many who saw them for the first time
one day lately.
The residents in other parishes were
joyful over oysters and cocoanuts, swing
boats, and ponies at Il penny time; but
those living in st. Pancras had their
burial boards to make merry over, and
scorned the common delights to be
found on Hampstead heath. For this
day, as is customary in st. Pancras on
bank holidays, people went in for fresh
air and celebrating pastoral scenery
to be found in the converted church
yards which serve the quarter of a mil
lion inhabitants as places of recreation.
At the entrances to these cheerful
pleasaunces they were confronted with
nicely painted boards, bearing the fol-
lowing notice:
"St. Pancras, London-The cemetery
of this parish is situate at East Finch
ley, two miles from the parish bound
airy. 1t is the largest and most beau
tiful of the London cemeteries. Private
and family graves from two guineas.
Attractive portions of the cemetery
have been laid out for Roman Catholics
and other non-conformist interments.
For particulars apply to the burial de-
partment, Vestry hall, PaNcras road,
n. W."
There is nothing glazing about these
notice boards which have been planted
about the recreation grounds of St.
Pancras. They are neat and not
gaudy, and they don't overdt the thing
at all. They merely assure the for
tunate quarter of million of inhabit-
ants that their future resting place is
the largest and most beautiful" and
that even people who don't belong to the
established church can have attractive
portions"
No wonder the people of st. Pancras
rejoiced with exceeding joy, and made
merry-althoug they were alive.
They saw the inward meaning of those
notices, and laughed in eXultation over
less fortunate citizens of London. A:
East Finchley cemetery is the solution,
for st. Pancras, of the housing question.
a Daily Mail representative came
across a decrepit old gentleman who
was chuckling to himself in one corner
of the gardens" What am L crying
about?" responded the old gentleman
to an inquiry. Pm not crying! I'm
laughing. Don't you see that board?
Well, we're crowded out in st. Pancras.
There's no room to live in But just
wait till we die.
why" he exclaimed, in uncontrol-
liable glee, we've got the largest and
most beautiful cemetery in London.
Ho, ho Attractive portions for non
conformista. Ha, ha! For two guineas'

THE FILLER OF THE SOIL.

BY dint Of craft he coaxes from the field.
Stubborn ofttimes. rich, luxuriant yield
Wherewith to feed tie nations Of the earth,
Yet they be few who ken his honest worth
And some do deem him narrow; but OF
stream,
Forest and field, his lore they little dream;
For Nature teaches him her mystic ways
Throughout each changing seasons pass
ing days.
Far from gllded haunts that tempt mems
souls,
His FURNISHED share the fallow furrow rolls
Along the fertile field; and later, there
The merry harvest sung Tits on the air.
Content to labor in his humble place,
Content to fill his small. allotted space,
He quaffs the glowing sunshine's mellow
And dwe Gi beneath his own fig tree and
vine.

WHIPPED BY MACHINERY.

afternoon, to interview the lads who re.
Gently received the first hcnors and
four stripes from the newly acquired
whipping apparatus at Airdie, writes
Il correspondent of the London Star
The apparatus is shaped like the
breastpece of a violin, is about five
feet long by three feet broad. The boy
is fastened on by leather straps on his
arms and knees and the weapon is an
ordinary birch rod.
You show up the Airdrie authori-
ties said the mother of lad named
Allen to me. l asked him-a bright
wee chap of tcn-if he would like to Wis
it Airdrie again. The boy was equal to
the occasion and promptly answered
no. He WAS the first to be birched; he
had four stripes, and all he has to COM
plain of was that the man waited such
u long time between the strokes.
He was not favorably impressed
with the eXecutioner. He was Il big

smile when he received the first lash;

~ brother said he would have paid five
pounds sterling if he could have pre-
vented the lad being dashed. The other
boys spoke in the same strain, and did
not relish the introduction of ma
chinery, though the punishment ap-
pears no more degrading than school
birching. That is form of school dis
cipline unknown in Scotch board
schools, where ralmies, or strokes on
the palm Of the hand with cane, is the
prevailing method of administering
punishment.

Nerve of n sparroIv.

My informant was feeding with
bread crumbs in ST. James park a
wood pigeon at his feet. One OF the
birds feathers, an under tail-covert
which was rufiled and out of place,
caught the eye of a sparrow. The spar
row flew down, seized it in its beak
and pulled it's best. The feather did
not yield at once, and the pigeon
walked off with offended dignity. The
sparrow followed, still holding on;
and, in the end, flew off triumphantly
with the trophy to its nest. "Well, il
that don't take the cake for cheek,
was the comment of a passing laborer'

UP HILLSIDE WAY.

Up hillside way q morn OF May
Wears sheen of white and pomp of green
And robins tilt on fence and spray,
And friendly catbirds flute and preen.
Up hillside way the brooks are brown,
And little ripples catch the light;
Beneath the uproar Of the town
hear the brooks from morn till night.
They chant tender undersong,
Amid the furious strife of trade;
Ny heart goes back where belong,
Where once, needless child, played.
No golden gains up hillside way,
No stocks nor margins; Nature there
Keeps open house both night and day
And spreads her board with ample fare.

The old home wooes my soul again.

Pinchine Flowers.

A peculiar species of climbing plant
from Brazil has lately been introduced
in the south of England, where it grows
freely in the open air. Its flowers are
provided with fiat, horny plates, stu
ated above the nectar cups in the CEN
ter of the blossom, and which are called
"pinching-bodies." When an insect
thrusts its proboscis into the nectar, the
plates pinch it fast, and on its de-
parture the insect must either carry
off the pollen masses of the flower, or
leave its proboscis behind. In the
former case, the pollen is likely to
reach and fertiize another flower; in
the latter, the unfortunate insect, de-
prived of it's proboscis, dies. Some
times the legs, as well as the noses, of
insects are found sticking in the flow
ers. Only the bumblebee appears to be
strong enough always to escape ampu-
tation.--Youth's Companion.

ENDED HIS LIFE
Mysterious Suicide of Arthur II. Cook, Young
Gambler at Boise.

Last Mondays Statesman says: Ar
thur II. Cook could not face the uncer-
tainties of the new year, so he went in
to the hills back of the city, took dose
of poison, pillowed his heap on snow.
weighted sage brush and sank into his
last sleep. His body was still warm
when it was found about o'clock Sss-
terday morning by three little boys who
were running over the hills. The lads
reported the discovery of the body at
the barracks and Sheriff Oliver and
Chief Francis were notified. The body
was taken to Glover's undertaking es-
adjustment and an inquest was held
by Coroner Siggins. The jury found
that the man was dead. No autopsy
was performed and the verdict was
that the cause of death was unknown.
An air Of mystery surrounds the case
Notwithstanding the general belief that
it was a case Of suicide. Cook was a
we'll educated young man, 26 years of
age. He came from good family and
was at one time connected wi tn the
bank in Vanita, Indian territory, of
which his father, now dead, was presi-
dent. He went astray and although he
led gamblers life, still his demeanor
reflected his good breeding and showed
that his early teaching had been along
lines that should develop good, useful
men, Cook did not drink and was not
addicted to the use of morphine.
Among the gamblers he was known as
thorough gentleman, honest in all
his dealings.
Saturday night Cook lost considerable
money gambling, and to this loss is as
cribed tEe'reason for his rash act. But
those who know him best say the loss
of money never Induced dependency.
Winning or losing he was always cheer
full; and it is difficult for his friends to
believe that his last losing led to suicide,
To their minds there is something back
of it all.

. SENATE ORG AIMED.

What the Democrats and silver Re-
publicans failed to do, the Republicans
have accomplished. This afternoon
they formed combination with the
two Populist senators snd organized
the senate. There was fair and salts
factory division of the sweet meats,
and all is serene on the surface. The
work Of legislation will now proceed
without serious interruption. It is not
known on the outside whether The Re
publican senators swallowed the initia-
tive and referendum but as the Popu-
lists insisted that they would fuse with
40 party which refused to do so, it is
fair to infer that the Republicans took
the dose. In the divisions of ''prlnci-
pies" the Populists got the senate sec
rotary and the Republicans got the
chairman pro TEN. All is well that
euds well.
