fn Memory of Lille Agnes May williams. WI
Died May !. 1900
We had little daughter.
A little bright eyed child,
We loved, we dearly loved her,
Our hearts all SEEMED to iwine,
Around her like tie tendfils,
Of the lovely forest vine.
But alas; we could not keep her,
For one day an angel came,
And took our darling Agnes,
10 her bright angelic home,
We kissed her pure bright forehead,
And dimmed bright blue eyes,
Then SCARED away rejoicing,
To her home beyond the skies.
Then we laid her little body,
Beneath the bright green sod.
But the soul Of little Agnes,
Has gone 10 live with God,
And one mo-e line IL added.
To that chain Of endless love,
That binds our best affections,
To that paradise above.

WATER TURNED IN.
Great Drainage Canal Is Opened at
Chicago-No Formal Cere-
mOny Held.

Chicago, Jan. 3.-At nine o'clock
Tuesday morning water was turned
into the $33,000,0 900 drainage canal and
Il will fall into the Desplaines river,
and thence, through the Illinois and
Mississippi rivers, TO the Gulf OF Mex
leo. What is termed by the canal en-
gineers the collateral channel has been
Tor some time completed from the Chi
cago river in the southwestern part OF
the city to within Is feet of the main
channel of the canal. This 15-foot wall
of earth with two sluice gates behind
il has been all that has kept the Chicago
river and Lake Michigan out of the
canal. At ten o'clock Monday night
a steam dredge began to cut away this
wall of earth and a few minutes be-
fore nine o'clock the water in the col
lateral channel was against the sluice
gates, and only n few inches OF TIM
Der remained to be removed before
Chicago was TO realize her dream OF
years and see the great canal in actual
operation. When the water began to
back up against the sluice gates the
timbers were knocked away and the
first water from the Chicago river ran
)inio the canal. The engineers of the
sanitary district have cut channel to
carry 100000 cubic feet of water
minute, but Tuesday the water was al
lowed to flow into the canal at the rate
of only $4,000 cubic feet minute. The
effect Of turning 100000 cubic feet OF
water a minute into the empty canal
would be like the bursting of reser-
voir and would tear away every bridge
over the canal and wreck the control
ing works at Lockport. Therefore the
water will be turned in gradually.

TyroIesc Counting.

When young Tyrolese goes counting
in earnest he carries with him bottle
of wine, of which he pours out glass
and presents it TO the object of his af-
lection. If she accepts it, the whole
affair is settled. Very often the girl
has not yet made up her mind, and then
she will take refuge in excuses, so as
not TO drink the wine, and yet not re-
fuse il point blank, for that is considI
cred gross insult, proving that she has
been merely trifling with the affections
OF her lover. She will, for instance,
maintain that the wine "looks sour" or
that wine disagrees with her. In fact,
she makes use Of any subterfuge that
presents itself at the moment. Shy low
ers. 10th 10 make sure OF their case be-

ton. Not word need be spoken, and
