A Squirrel Story.

A Bar Harbor gentleman tells this
story of how the squirrels on White is
land often spend their time III feeding
flock of sheep from certain orchard
there. He says that he and his compan-
ion, who were duck shooting there last
fall, had stopped to rest in an old field
in which there was an orchard. A flock
of sheep was feeding near by. 1t was
not long before their attention was call
ed to the chirruping of some squirrels
in a thicket, and they were surprised to
see the sheep suddenly stop feeding and
manifest great excitement.
The squirrels went into the orchard
and, climbing into one of the trees, re-
sumed their loud chatter, evidently call
ing the sheep, since the flock made at
once for the apple tree. Then the SPUR
rels began to bite off the apples, which
fell among the hungry sheep, who would
struggle for the fruit like SO many
schoolboys. The squirrels seemed to en-
joy the fun, and after they had dropped
few apples from the first tree they
skipped to a distant tree, for which the
sheep would make in great confusion.
After the squirrels had thus enjoyed
an hours fun with their fieecy neigh
bors and supplied them with a sufficient
quantity of the fruit they scampered
back to their haunts in the thicket leav-
ing the sheep to resume their grazing. -

"CriminaI Type" Nonsense.

A few years ago most of us had con

finger nails and thought we detected il
them the "stigmata of degeneration.
This illusion was lost when it was
found that, in fact, the criminal was
about as we'll formed as the jury or the
judge: The criminal type" fell into
oblivion.
But the criminal mind" remained
The psychology Of evildoers must have
something in it radically different from

the force of the Rev. John Newton's
saying when he saw thief led to the
gallows, There goes John Newton but

Now, however, such authorities al
Nacke and Baer and Dallemagne have
pronounced the whole editice of 'crim

The ancient Spanish and Portuguese
war lyrics are called redondillas and

Cid" written in the twelfth century,
has been the military inspiration OF
the Spaniards for seven centuries. II
has been doubted whether the Cid ever
existed, but the researches of Leyden
professor prove that there was such d
person, though the Cid of history and
the Cid of poetry are very dissimilar in
character. The real Cid was a rebel, a
robber and freebooter, the ally of the
enemies of his country. The Cid OF
poetry and drama was the type OF
knightly virtue, "The Perfect, the
Born in Happy Hour, the Invincible,
the Magnanimous. He is Roland and
Bayard in one.
In the popular literature of Spain he
holds place without parallel in the
history of any other hero Sung by

to his deeds and prowess have been col

tries to sneak your shoes, you know
what to do, don't you?" Willie thought
he knew. "And another thing you
don't want to roll out of your berth and
have the laugh on you. You'd better
sleep in the hammock. Most travellers
do. l do myself"
He also told him other things, to all
of which advice Willie promised to pay
strict regard.
The literary editor advised what
books to read on the journey, the So
ciety editors on chance railway ac-
quaintances Then he went. He wrote
CHEEKY letters back, said he escaped the
bunko steerers and was having great
time; even had his tintype taken in a
bathing costume. So the Office breathed
more freely.
When Willie came home, as he did
in the fullness of two weeks, he was
ready to talk.
"Have any trouble on the train,
Willie?" said the baseball editor as he
pounded his typewriter. Willie went
over very close to the baseball editor
and said: "Say, couldn't get into that
hammock. 1t was too short.
Couldn't, Ell? What did you do?'
II staid up and talked to the con-
ductor. Say, l caught guy trying to
cop my shoes, and didn't do a thing
to him. He said he wanted to shine
'em, but l was dead ON to him"
"Well, and the baseball editor look
ed innocent. "Did you tip him."
Say, there's the only place they got

gave the dingy half dollar, and when
asked for change he only gave me
back cents. Was that right?'
"No," said the baseball editor. cit
wasn't. You got the worst of it. -
"Then l did have a rough talk with
fresh conductor, who accused me of
stopping the train. 1t was this way:
When l went to bed, of course ] took
off some of my clothes. Oh, l was too
slick to undress altogether. Something
might happen, you know. Well l took
off my coat and vest and threw them
ACROSS the clothesline that was along
near the upper berth. They were pretty
heavy, and, of course, pulled the rope a
little. 1t made kissing noise and in
minute or so the train stopped and
everybody got up to see what was the
matter.
1.-The conductor came rushing through
the train and said he guessed we were
held up. Everybody looked for gun or
an AK, but no robbers We're found. Then
the conductor came back, looking mad
and said some smart guy was monkey
ing with the bellrope. He saw my coat
and vest on the clothesline and raised
Ned, but | told him knew my bust
ness. Then he and the porter and a
fresh travelling man giggled for an hour
SO we couldn' sleep. Yes, l had great
time. "-Cincinnati Commercial Trib-

But n little while ago
She walked among us, all our pleasures shared ,
She lessened every burden, every care,
For her dear presence mai" them light as air.
1t mattered not how well D.. i'll we Jared,
Whate'er of veal
Fell to our lot, if skies were dark or clear,
Her happy face, her pleasant, gracious mien
Gave somber things a wondruus silvery sheen.
The words she spoke were words of hope and
cheer
For us who loved her so.
Alas there came day
When sleepless eyes foresaw a glorious dawn,
For autumn skies were strangely warm and
fair,
And summer breezes stirred the autumn air.
And nature seemed though smiled upon.
But not n single ray
OF light could pierce the thick and heavy
gloom
That like curtain hung around our home
To which we vainly hoped death would not
come,
For in her own now more than hallowed room
Pulseless and cold she lay.
Hands crossed upon her breast
That never knew an idle hour before,
But deeds of love and noble deeds had done
Had burdens borne for many weary one
Till they, too, worn and tired could do no more
And needed only rest.
Oh, hard try to think tits better so,
But in my waking dreams and in my sleep
vision comes before me, and | weep
Because it is vision Well know
She dwells among the blest.

Willie took vacation a few weeks

watch, and, after the managing editor
rules the office. Now, Willie has not
trotted the wide world over. He is
plain, go ahead, every night boy and
the pride, as well as the despair, of the
whole office.
So when Willie announced that he
was going to New York the office threw
up its hands and gasped. The reporters
gathered around the adventurer and
told him many things; also they gave
him advice The baseball editor, with
a singleness of purpose that was touch
ing, TOOK him aside and gave him some
valuable hints. Willie, being a little
doubtful on the etiquette of Pullman
cars, sought information.
"Now, whatever you do you mustn't

in his fatherly way. "If any smart guy

PROTZMAN,
The Photographer,

NEXT week is the week of the in
stitute for the county and the town
will be full of teachers. We shall be
glad to see them and will bid them
welcome to do what ever they may see
fit to do. The town is always glad to
see the teachers and will do what it
can to have them enjoy themselves.
LADIES, why not buy your shoes
from Waters. He won't be beat on
prices and you have one of the largest
lines, if not the largest, in the city
from which to select.
THE town has not yet finally decid-
ed what it is to do in regard to the
sale of the Municipal Hail. The peo-
pie from whom they were to buy lot
on Main street have gone back on
them fatty and the city fathers are
hesitating about confirming the sale
of the City home to the Elks who
were the highest bidders when the
Hall was put up for sale short time
ago. Some arrangement will likely
be made with the order however and
the sale will probably stand.

DON'T forget that Hirschman's
will save you money on any quality
of shoe you may want.
A WOMAN in Racine, Wisconsin,
gave to a clerk a dollar to pay for a
few things she bought. The dollar
was one Of rare date. The clerk sent
a dollar of his own to the cashier,
gave to the woman her change and
sold the dollar which be received
from her for 1000. Now the firm
claim that it was their dollar, and
the woman thinks she should have the
profit on it. The thing has not got
into the courts, but is in several
newspapers. The explanation of the
matter is that the clerk talked too
much. The moral is, don't talk too
much.

IT'S just as easy to fix up the side
walks while the pavements are being
laid as it is to wait awhile and then
tear everything to pieces. Attend to
them now and lets get the town into
the best condition possible so that
the impression that we make on visi-
tors may not be marred for lack of a
little foresight.
THE Athletic Field at the Uniyer-
sity has been fixed up recently, The
place has been scraped and the holes
filled up so that it is now in excellent
shape for ball playing The visitors
who play here will have no cause for
complaint on the score of the condi-
ton of the grounds.
EVERY day some visitor to Morgan
town tells US that we have the pref
test town in the country and one of
which we should be very proud. The
prosperous looks of every thing about
the place also calls out many express
sions of commendation and generally
to see us is but TO love US.
