Rear Held Up a Train,

Last Thursday two strolling for
eigners passed through Rising Sun
exhibiting two trained bears.
Aftward while walking along the
railroad about two miles south of
Port Deposit one of the bears
escaped. Bruin continued his way
down the track until he espied a
train approaching. The animal
galloped faster and the engineer
seeing it coming stopped the train,
but none of the crew got out to
drive the bear off the track.
Whistling did not scare the strang-
er, but it scratched and snutfed
about the pilot and had just left
that part of the locomotive when
the engineer backed the train and
came up with rush, striking and
killing the bear instantly.

A Lesson for the Farmers.

Ifthey will learn the farmers have
had a lesson that touches their
pockets which should instruct them
in politics. The tin trust, en-
sconsed behind the McKinly and
Dingley tariffs, has had the power
to raise the price of tin so high, and
has exercised the privilege, that
Gamers could not afford to purchase
cans to hold the tomato crop and
thousands of bushels of tomatoes
were left on the fields to rot, infiict-
ing a heavy loss on farmers. The
Republican party is responsible for
this great loss.

Birthday Greeting.

Written for the MIDLAND JOURNAL.
The birthdays whisper in mine ear,
And claim Il tribute far away;
Days, months and many happy years
Have passed where. oh where are they.
No trace of time within our sight,
No path to lead again to youth;
There is a thought divinely bright,
The gem OF nobleness is truth.
1t seems day of long ago,
All of the joy of childhood, when
The pearly dewdrop sparkled low
On the sweet blooming jessamine.
Fair spot of earth, once more l name
The tender spell it holds on me-
All. well l know ne'er again
Can trace those paths, sister, with three.
There our dear father from the dawn
OF childhood's happy morning knew
Home 8 happy scenes to dwell upon
From infancy, long life through.
His thoughtful father left the home,
A resident for many years
For youthful nerve, to struggle on,
To realize its hopes and fears.
Fortune at length gave promise there,
The fields, the orchard gave the claim,
The fruit was ever passing fair,
Rich were the fields of golden grain
Can we forget one spot of earth
Our infancy in pleasure knew?
Each morning gave some fair new birth,
The evening closed with hope in view.
shadow passd on youths fair day,
We saw the rosy treasure fade
From dear mothers cheek, away:
Alas, how soon in earth was laid.
Our youthful hope was bright once more
She told us of the blissful road,
OF LIES eternal peaceful shore,
Where living waters calmly fow'd.
Another change, our father passd,
How quietly, with accent low;
Where are the nine we are the last
Another home we soon may know,
