Bowed low in the dim. soft light,
A. under the willow tree by the gate
kissed you and said. "Good night"
All. sweetheart mine. With the pale, mute lipA
We have had our measurc Of rue;
The clouds were dark and the skies were fair,
But you forever were true.
And now as J sit In the dark alone

The way through the yeass TO that faron held
Where simpies for heaftsche grow,
Love fades. they nay. when the pulse Is old.
And am thTeexcore and ten.
But what have learned with Its hitter loss
Lies far beyond their ken;

And kis you and say. Good night"

so that the grand sum total for these years was 3,698,780 In the following year, 1875, the deed was done. The southern herd had been swept from the face of the earth: the northern herd went in the same way. In 1882 it was believed there were 100000 buffaloes alive in the herd, but there were at least 5000 hunters in the field shooting them down at every point. Such mer- ciless war of externination was never before witnessed in a civilized land. Then came 1888; thousands took the field this year and Sitting Bull and some whites had the honor of killing the last ten thousand.
 There were living at the last Govern ment census, made eight years ago, 256 pure-blooded buffaloes in captivity, the last of the untold millions that covered this continent during the past century. Scientific American.

The Cure Of the Films.

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 Our city is blessed with trees on it's busy streets, which would attract atten- tion in almost any forest; 1t is distress ing, therefore, to witness the gradual removal of these grand old monarchs. When their death is caused by natural
 decay there is nothing to be said, but when laid low through the devastation wrought by the insignificant eIm-tree beetle, we must confess that we have not done our duty by these old friends. Spraying will destroy the beetle, but there Is another source of danger wkich from its obscurity is apt to be unno- ticed. Where the many branches di- verge from the trunk there is often a space acting as receptacle for the dust from the street, and washing from the tree. In this small garden frequently will be found growth of various kinds in fiourishing condition. A large tree on York street supported for number of years a thrifty currant bush; on a neighboring tree small peach tree was doing we'll, and on one in front of the residence of the writer grew strong Towering shrub. It is at this part of the tree that the mischief often begins. On the removal of the above mentioned shrub it was discovered that decay had eaten it's way down fully two feet into the heart of the tree, making a cavity one foot in diameter. After this was thoroughly cleaned out, it was filled with broken stone and thin mixture of Portland cement poured in until it over flowed soon making an air and water tight filling. This is simple and eff fective remedy under these conditions and will prolong the life of these faith ful sentinels. N. J. HAYES.

JAPAN's GREAT NAVY.
IMPRESSIVE Maneuvers In the Inland
Sea.

VICTORIA, 3. c., May 15.-The EN-
press Of India, which arrived this even
ing. brings details of the great naval
demonstration and maneuvers in Japan
toward the end of April. The foreign
press of Japan attaches as much impor-
lance to this demonstration as Great
Britain did to the review of 1897
The maneuvers took the form of actual
warfare, and the result of the demon
stration as to the fighting capacity of
the Japanese navy is reported to have
been very satisfactory to the administra-
tors of that nation. The maneuvers Were
Concluded with an impressive and sue
cessful review held at Kobe on April 30th.
The navy of Japan assembled in four
lires across the harbor, the big three
funneled Shikishima being at the head OF
the outermost line. Five battleshps
three coast defense vessels, thir teen
cruisers, one torpedo tender, ten torpedo
boats and seventeen torpedo destroyers
took part The Emperor reviewed the
fleet from the deck of the Asama and
each vessel fired a salute of twenty-one
guns as he passed through the lines. nh
concluding portion of the maneuvers prop
er was an engagement held off the coas
of OkinoShima, KaiSa-Gori, between the
invading squadron, consisting of ten wal
war vessels. The defenders were finally
worsted, and with their retirement The
evolutions were brought to a close
Speaking of the effect of the review
and maneuvers on the foreign element
the Kobe Chronicle says: I'VE fancy We
shall not be far out if we assure the Jap
anese authorities that the naval display
ally speaking, left a considerable impress
sion foreigners.
