OUR LOST.

They never quite lcay, us. our friends who
have passed
Through the shadows oi death to the sunlight
above;
Thousand sweet me .losies are holding them
To the places they Blessed with their presence
and love.
The work which they left and the books which
they read
Speak mutely, though still with an eloquence
rare,
And the songs that they sung, and dear words
that they said,
Yet linger and sigh on the desolate air.
And oft when alone, and as oft in the throng,
Or when evil allures us or sin .draweth nigh,
whisper comes gently, may, do not the
wrong"
And we feel that our weakness is pitied on
high.
In the dew threaded morn and the opaline eve
When the children are merry or crimsoned
with sleep
We are comforted, even as lonely we grieve,
For the thought OF their rapture forbids us to
weep.
We toll at our tasks in the burden and heat
OF life's passionate noon. They are folded in
peace.
1t is well We rejoice that their heaven is
sweet,
And one day for us will all bitterness cease
We, too, will go home DER the river Of rest,
AS the strong and the lovely before us have
gone,
Our sun will go down in the beautiful west,
To rise in the glory that circles the throne.
Until then We are bound by our love and our
faith,
To the saints who are walking in Paradise fair,
They have passed beyond sight, as the touch
ing of death,
But they live, like ourselves. In Gods infinite
care. Margaret L. Sangster.

for wheat. and the stand was not very
good Concluding that it wasn't worth
harvesting. he pulled up his stakes and
went back to Missouri, leaving the farm
to fight the mortgage all by itself. The
farm was equal to the occasion The
wheat ripened, fell down and deposited
the seed in the soil again. Next spFina
the wheat began to grow Justify. Some
of the neighbors were honest enough
to write about it down to the fugitive
in Missouri. and he got interested
enough TO come back and take look
Then he stopped and harvested hit
voluntary crop. He sold it for enough
TO pay off tue mortgage and the resi-
of his debts and had tidy little sur.

along the river bottom east of the

grove, when all at once they discovered
by the warning whirr Of hundreds OF

Miss Caldwell assisted with club.
When the battle was over they counted
256 dead rattlesnakes and half as many
blue racers A great many of the
snakes had as high as IL rattles. They
were an extraordinary vicious lot, and
instead of attempting to escape came
savagely at the inIuders and fought
dogged1y until the last one was ex-
terminated. The rattles, which will

and prize very highly as mementos OF
an exceedingly perilous position.

Robert Scott Seriously Injured by
Falling from a Scaffold in the
High School Building.

Robert Scott, the painter sustained
injuries yesterday morning which
may result seriously and which will
keep him confined to his home for
some time. The accident happened
about 1880 o'clock, while Scott was
engaged in painting the ceiling of the
new room recently added to the High
school building, on Apple street.
In some manner the scaffolding on
which the painter was standing gave
way and precipitated him to the floor
below, where he fell heavily on a pile
of scantlings. Those hearing his cries
went Immediately to his assistance
and DR.. Murphy was summoned. Up
on the arrival of the doctor it was
suggested that he be removed to his
home, but the injured man suffered
much pain when he attempted to
h.Ove that at his request he was al
lowed to stay in the school building.
Later he was removed to his home
where he is resting as easily as medi-
cal attention can make him. 1t is
thought the injuries are of an internal
nature.

THE CIRCUS IN THE SOUTH.
Amusing Instances of Attempts to
Evade the Ticket Wagon.

From the Pittsburg News
I'm the North" said the old circus
man to a reporter, "the desire to get
into the tent by crawling under the
canvas is confined to the small boy.
But in the South the entire colored
population comes to the ground and
hangs around day and night looking
for an opportunity to get in free. And
to crawl under the canvas seems to
them to be the easiest way. Men and
women tramp around and around the
tent looking for an unguarded point.
We always put extra canvasmen on
watch when We go to the South with
our show. l have witnessed more
than one amusing and exciting Incl
dents growing out of this desire of
the negro to get into the circus with
out buying a ticket. They go liter
ally circus-mad when the show comes
to town. and they won't do a tap OF
work until it leaves. One reason why
they don't step up TO the ticket wagon
and hand out their coin is that they
never have any. There may be other
reasons, but | have never inquired
further into the subject

The Junger Maennerchors picnic is
a thing of the past; the Saengerfest
still lives in the impressions of those
who heard that wonderful blending of
well-trained German voices.
To say that the picnic was a big af-
fair would be putting it extremely
mild. To say that it was an immense
affair would be coming nearer the
mark. All day and especially toward
the afternoon and evening large crowds
entered Central Park Garden, where
the picnic was held, and by o'clock
last night the park presented an ami
mated and varying picture. There
were the indispensable refreshment
stands the irrepressible three shots
for cents" and every other kind of
amusement. The seats were marked
off in the park for the different socie-
ties, and each society had a large CO.
terie of people around their particular
stand.
At o'clock the Saengerfest proper
began, with a song of welcome by the
Junger Maennerchor, and after that
perfect shower of good music floated
through the air. showing how we'll the
different societies were trained. Now
classical number would be executed
and then some fine old German love
song would stir the hearts of the peo-
pie until the large multitude would be
stiled by the harmonious blending and
rich, mellow tones of the singers.
The following societies rendered
their numbers exceedingly well:
Wilkes-Barre Concordia, Scranton
Saengerrunde, Liederkranz, Arbeiter
Verein st. Mary's Glee and Dramatic
club, Harmony Quartette club and the
sweitZer MaennerchOr. There were
over 500 people in attendance.
After the Saengerfest the young
members of the different societies
stampeded to the dance floor with their
sweethearts and sisters and danced
until the early hours of the morning,
the full Ringgold band furnishing the
music.

Berry-Davis Marriage.

The marriage of Miss Lizzie Davis,
prominent young lady of this part

Davis, of 2154 Brick avenue, yester-
day morning at $50 o'clock. The nup-
tial knot was tied by the Rev. DIR.
r. 5. Jones, pastor of the Welsh Con-
gregational church. Owing to the re-
cent death of the bridegrooms father,
the wedding was private and was wit
messed only by close relatives and a
few intimate friends.
Immediately following the wedding
breakfast was served those present
after which the bridal party departed
on the 1890 train for New York, Phil

interest, and will be gone three weeks.

The principal attraction in West
Scranton on Labor Day will be the els
teddfod at Mears' hall under the aus
pices of the Devil SAINT lodge of 1vor-
ties. Three sessions will be held,
morning, afternoon and evening, and
at each the programme will be of suf-
ficient interest to attract large as
semblages.
The chief choral competition will be
on "Yr Haf," the most famous selec-
tion ever written by the lamented
Gwilym Gwent. This will be for
choir of not less than seventy-five in
number. The prize will be 800 and n
chair to the successful conductor. The
second highest prize offered is S35 to
the choir of one congregation for the
best rendition of Gounods praise Ye
the Father"
The third highest competitive prize
IS 500 for Juvenile choirs of not less
than thirty in number nor over Is
years of age. A special prize of $50
has been offered for the best Welsh
competition in memory of the late
Bonjamn Hughes. This effort is not
to exceed 200 lines. The other COM
petitive prizes range from 81 to Sc,
and are for solos. duets, quartettes,
recitations, essays, reading, etc.
Another feature OF the eisteddofd
will be the competition for tenors on
"Our Admiral" written by John Cour-
Ter Morris and set to music by John
T.. Lewis. The selection for altos, "'Ie
Was Despised," from the Messiah, is
one of the most beautiful compost
tons ever rendered in an eisteddofd,
and will lIndpubtpd uroVe ono of the
best numbers on the programme.
r. ]. Davies "Out in the Deep" for
sopranos, is also a pleasing number
and will be rendered by some of the
best singers in the eisteddfod. The
humorous numbers, the solo for per-
sons over As years of age, in which
the singers select their own pitch, the
impromptu readings and speeches and
the impromptu reading of music at
first sight, will also prove a source of
