HER FACE WAS NOT FAIR.

But There Was One TO Whom She
Would Always he Beautiful.
The blind boy raised rapt face to
the light.
"And my motherf" he said ques-
tioningly. "Tell me how she looks
again. 7 shall soon be able to see, and !
know shall find one more beautiful
than all the rest and cry motherl moth
erl Why do you not speakf"
His sensitive face was turned re-
proachfully toward his father. "You
have always told me how lovely she is.
She is Iittle-not taller than my shoul-
der-I know that. .
The old man laid his arm over the
lads shoulders.
"You must know now what your
blindness would have kept You from
knowing" he said. "Your mother Is
not fair and beautiful now in face, but
her soul Is what God made for q
mother When you can see, look for
the face which holds the greatest love.
You will not be mistaken. It will be
your mothers.
The great surgeon looked for mo-
ment or two into the sightless eyes, and
then turned and laid his hand on the
fathers trembling arm.
"Only God can make him see, my
friend" he said kindly. ''Your boy
was born blind, and human skill can
not help him"
The blind boy was the first to speak,
and he laid his arm around the sudden
~ aged form of his father.
sCome," he said, "let us go back to
mother. She will always be beautiful to
me now," and they turned and gave
place to the others. New York World.

DELAWARE COLLEGE

Delaware College hopes this year to in
crease the number of students pursuing
the agricultural courses. OF these courses
there are three, full four years course, q
two years course. and short winter course
of twelve weeks designed especially for
young men who are already occupied in
farming. and who cannot give up to study
the whole OF any year.
Any young man above sixteen years old,
and well grounded in English grammar.
spelling, English composition, arithmetic.
and algebra, may enter either the four years
or the two years course. The longer of
these courses will give faithful student
not only great deal Of knowledge concern
ing soils. crops and the diseases of plants
and animals, but the acquaintance with
the best literature. skill in English compo-
sition, instruction in economics, mathe-
matics and natural science, and an easy
reading knowledge of French and German.
In part the course is designed to fit young
men, who have taste for science and ag-
riculture, understandingly to manage farms
or to become workers In Experiment Star
tions or in any other situations where there
is necessary knowledge of the sciences in
their application to agriculture.
In order that the student may get the
most good from his technical studies, most
of that work is done in the last two years of
the course after good foundation has
been laid by the study of the Natural Sci.
encss, the application Of which to practice,
constitutes Agricultural Science.
The two years course omits French and
German, and the mathematics of the longer
course, and gives great deal of technical
instruction in agriculture and the related
sciences. This course is especially intended
for young men who are near their majority
and who feel that they cannot spare time
for the four years course. Younger men
are strongly advised to take the longer
in preference to the shorter course, as the
former undertakes to give well rounded
collegiate education, while the latter is not
designed to meet the needs of those who seek
such an education.
An Important part OF eacn course Is snop
work. This study Is designed to familarise
young men with the handling of tools. and
with the structure of machinery. The stu
dent may require skill in wood-turning,
carpentry. blacksmithing and other me-
chanical branches. The shop is large, airy
and well equipped with tools and machin-
cry. This. work Is extremely popular
with the students.
It is the design of the College to make the
instruction in agriculture highly practical
so that the really attentive student shall
leave college 80 familiar with the know
ledge be has acquired that be can easily
apply 1t to his life-work.
Examinations Of candidates seeking to
enter the agricultural and other courses
OF the College win be held at Newark on
September 18th and 18th.
The work Of the College year opens on
September i4th. Young men Wishing
| further information ss to the courses may

mail to the President Of the College.

THE CENTRE OF POPULATION

BY the first national census, taken
In 1870, when The population of the
country was not much greater than of

hood of Baltimore, though to tie west

first official appearance of Ohio as the
centre of population, though i has re-
mained the political centre of popula-
tion steady ever since.
In 1870 the centre of population was
on line in Ohio between Chilcothe
and Cincinnati; in 1880 it was in the
neighborhUod of Cincinnati; and in 1890,
the year of the last national census, it
was 10 Decatur County, Ind, near the
Ohio boundary. and on lire between
Cincinnati and Indianapolis. The

lation of Texas (2.20o, GOO in 1s9O) is
probably near {. .600, 900.
A State census taken of Kansas in
1895, on the other hand, showed the
population of that State to be less than
In 1890, while in the same period the
population of New Jersey had increas-
ed 16 per cent. Betwee 1890 and 1895
the population of Florida increased
from $4,000 to 465.0OO. while the
population of South Dakota (328, 900
in 1890) was returned as $50, 900 five
years later.
The growth of population in Ameri-
can States between 1890 and 1900 will
be in accordance with the increase of
the urban population In each rather
than with the gain In agricultural dis
tricts. As majority Of the cities are
in the North, it appears likely that the
''centre of population" in 1900 will be
on or near the banks of the Wabash,
in the State of Indiana, at some point
northwesterly from the present centre
and nearer the Illinois than the Ohio
State line.

CHARLES INFAMY.
The Drute,s Appalling Cruelty to His
ThoughtIess Bride.

There is a certain Chicago bride who
recently decided that her husband was
an unfeeling brute and went home to
mother for peculiar and unusual rea-
son. The mother was awakened just be-
fore dawn one morning last week by
sound of sobbing and weeping outside
her own sleeping room door. Her hor-
ror and astonishment at discovering her
only daughter in the depths of apparent
desolation and despair can well be inn
agined.
"Charlie was cru-u-u-el to me, "
walled the bride of month or there
abouts mournfully, "and SO / came
home
.sBut what did Charlie do-the
wretchl" inquired the mother, ready
to blame the husband on general prin-
ciples To this question. however, the
bride returned no answer save bitter
weeping. Then the mother, feeling that
the case was beyond her, administered
a nerve restorative and awoke the
brides father.
tNow. my child" began this indi-
vidual, speaking with the authority Of
one who had settled all her difficulties
from the time she could walk, "tell me
Immediately what that wretch of q

Little Tricks which Show What
Consummate Actress Is Patti.

Consummate Actress Is Patti.
A.dramatic writer Of San Francisco
tells the following amusing story Of
PATHS last visit to the Pacific coast.
He was ait the station with many OF ers
to meet the great diva when she ar
rived.
ssThe diva stepped from the train,
said the San Franciscan, s'and after
inhaling lung full of fog remarked:
sOh, this is heavenl All my troubles
are paid for. Thank heaven. I breathe
the air Of San Francisco once again !
This was all very sweet in the high
priced canary bird, and the newspaper
boys were all delighted.
.sHowever. it was only short time
before I went down to the train to meet
Patti at Salt Lake City. She was de-
scending from her car, and as her feet
touched the ground she exclaimed:
THANK heaven, i breathe the air Of
Salt Lake City once morel All my trou-
bles are paid for. Oh, this is heavenr
The newspaper boys were all delighted
with her.
"As for myself, on both OF tneSe oc-
casions l was delighted also-with the
diva's lovely hypocrisy, that accursed
sin which the poet tells us takes the
best men in. I never thought Patti
much Of an actress, but changed my
.>4;.sd i. +his respect after witnessing
these two exhibitions.
Nothing in the way Of ''lovely ny.
pocrisy' can surprise anybody who has
ever seen Patti on the concert stage.
She rushes to the footlights. vision of
smiling radiance, eyes swimming with
the moisture of overpowering joy and
look of pleading affection on her coun-
tenance, as if the present moment were
the happiest of her life and as if she
were consumed by an eager desire to
embrace and kiss everybody in the au-
dience. And she does it all SO naturally
and spontaneously that the majesty OF
the assemblage is instantly "mashed"
and would cheerfully lynch anybody
who would intimate that there was any
'tacting" about it.
