Four young men about town had an
experience with two chorus girls with

not apt to soon forget. Two of them
acted in the role of Washers" and the
young ladies accepted an invitation
to dine after the performance. In
room connected with a bar the male
section of the party was increased to
a quartette. The gentlemen had pre-
viously posted the bartender to use the
tin foil off a bottle of Mumm's Extra
Dry, in serving a decoction known as
champagne cider, and the instructions
were faithfully followed. The cider.
with the Mumm's tin foil over the
cork, with the usual allowance of
cracked ice was sent up very frequent
ly, and the young men chuckled to
themselves over the idea that they
were making champagne impression
on the girls, with a cider outlay. The
cider cost twenty-five cents a bottle.
All went pleasantly for awhile, and
the wise young men did not detect the
exchange of suggestive winks between
the girls. Finally one of them insist
ed upon treating. There were four
separate and distinct protests. II

"bloods" simply would not listen to
such proposition. Their money was
counterfeit" One of the girls was
persistent, however. She pressed a but
ton, the waiter entered and she fairly
took away the breath of her admirers
when she said:
Please bring US another bottle Of
that cider"

In the garlanded grass where the muititudes
And the splendor Of spring overnows,
The souls of the heroes climb up thro' the sod,
And smile in the cheeks OF the rose.
We turn back the leaves Of the ledger Of doom
And trace thro' the stains of old tears
The story that closed mid the grief and the
OF the wearisome. war-shadowed years.
We stifie a sigh as we trample the clay
Where the ranks Of the pale legions lie
And we dream, as we turn from their tablets
That for freedom tits glorious to die.
The teeth of Old Time on the granite may CRATE
Till the proudest shafts crumble and fall
But remembrance will stand with her flowers at
the gate.

All. sweet is the breath of the roses. and sweet
Are the light and the laughter of May;
In the flash OF his martial array.
The chaplets Of love we may bind on the urns

But the wrong Of rebellion still rankles and
Like a fire in the heart of the years.

rooms on the second floor is gallery which
extends the full depth OF the house and is
lighted by stained-glass windows A triple
archway separates one OF these windows

stands a bronze figure over which a foun-

SOME ART TREASURES.
General Porter has adopted an ingenious
device to light this gallery, whose very high
ceiling and dark tapestried walls are SOM
Der even in the sunshine. At night when
he uses the gallery as a reception room or
for dinners electric lights without shine
through the stained glass windows and add
70 the light from the electroliers above.
This gallery is filed with cabinets OF
antique swords and arms. many hand
wrought and inlaid with gold: its frieze is
OF rare painted heads, its doors are splendid
pieces OF hand carved work. These doors
were brought from chateau in the south
of France. The dining room, which is the
third room beyond the gallery, is paneled
in hand carved wood brought from an old
chateau. This dining room. by the way.
seats twenty-six. The large gallery which
General Porter uses for entertaining
greater number will seat fifty. 1t is larger
than the state dining room of the Presi-
dent at Washington.
Between the dining room and the gallery
are two small reception rooms with pol
ished floors which are furnished with Gen.
Porter's own treasures-among them two
very beautiful tables in solid malachite,
which he got when in Russia year ago.
The ceiling OF one of these rooms is domed
in the center and exquisitely painted.
Opening from these reception rooms is
another which is almost as long as the gall
lery. 1t gets the western sun through long
windows, and 1t is lighted as well from
above. the whole of the dark wood ceiling
being set with heavy ground glass. In
this room are many of the Splitter treas
ures. including a set of armor exquisitely
italian faience and carved worries, and
massive carved mantel of white marble.
Opening from this room are the library,
General Porters den and the smoking
room. In the smoking room are hung the
sword which General Porter carried
through the war and swords which have
been presented to him, and in a cabinet
are the trophies OF friendship, which the
general values almost highly-the sill

Newark, n. j., March 13.-Fourteen
persons, a majority of whom were

day morning. Thirteen bodies were
recovered from the ruins within three

the greatest excitement prevailed.
Vito CredavO is locked up on sus-

FLOCKING TO CAPE NOME.
Nineteen Expeditions Left Dawson in .
Month for the New Elne rado-High
Prices Obtain In Dawson.

Washington, March 11.-Under date
of Dawson City, January II, Vice Con-
sui Morrison reports that 10 expedi-
tions have left Dawson for Cape Nome
since December 4 last, and as soon
as the weather moderates many more
will start. The population of Dawson
is 5000 less than last year. Late news
from Nome confirms the reports of
the richness of the district and an
nounces new finds in the interior, but
lack of fuel prohibits these being
worked in winter. Typhoid fever has
appeared with increasing mortality.
In Dawson. the revenue from liquor
permits for the year is placed at $780,
600. Saloon licenses are worth S.. 500
per annum. Prices still up. The
profits on drugs are placed at 300 per
cent, groceries 200 per cent, hard
ware 400 per cent: Beer is worth 500
a barrel and whisky from $40 to $50
per per gallon. Owing to flooding of
the mines the gold output may be
kept down. 1t is estimated that be-
tween $25.OOO,OOO and $30.OOO,0OO will
comprise the output for the Dawson
district.

Ono Youthful Essaxiat.

Among the gems of general knowl-
edge which sometimes serve to IL
lumine the dull routine of elementary
education the following Essay on St.
Stephen" copy of which reaches
us from the vicinity of church of
England school in Surrey, is worthy
of a place. The author appears to
have derived his transformation from
both lay and ecclesiastical sources.
and he writes:
1--WE have heard that St. Stephen
was the first one to find out how to
make the steam engine. He first made
the puffin-Billy and many others, and
he went to maxim 'em, and some he
made better than all the others, and
these be the ones you see in the sta
shunS."
This is pretty good, but our admira-
ton is boundless when, with infinite
gravity and brevity, our youthful es-
sayist concludes:

contention is that the legislature has
no power to unseat them after certif-

of Judge Field.
