Derivation or Boer.

1t Is curious to note the survivance In
Scottish legal and agricultural parlance
Of the closely allied term Bower" prO-
nounced Boer). The expression Is prop
erly applied to n person who hires, from
the proprietor or principal tenant Of u
farm. a stock of cows along with the
right Of grazing them on certain fields.
The Bower makes in return money
payment Of so much per COW, and trusts
to making his profit out Of the sale Of
the dairy products. The precise legal
position of party who has blowing"
lease IL somewhat intermediate, being
midway between that Of mere mana
ger and that of a sub-tenant. Instances
Of this mixed contract Of lease of land
and hiring Of labor are now rare but 1t
Is still to be found In agricultural dis
tricts. The word ''bower" is allied to
the Gaelic "bO," n COW, and among its
numerous cognates In the Aryan Ian
guage Is included the Dutch term
"HOer"

A Roi1road Adventure.

Not long ago a freight conductor
started on night run after drawing
his months wages from the pay car.
He had with him his son, lad Of II,
AMI when well under way they began
TO cook supper on the caboose stove.
The rear brakeman on watch In the
rupola. observed that the engine
seemed to have unusual difficulty in
pulling the train. He did not connect
this fact with the presence Of several
hoboes Oh top OF the cars, who, I'M
known to him, were setting brakes and
sailing the train.
Suddenly the front door Of the ca
boosc flew open and four masked and
,rmed men ordered the occupants to
throw up their hands. The conductor
Jumped to shield his child. seized a
coupling pin and smashed head. but
not until four shots had rung out and
three bullets were in his body. Fight
ing to the last, he fell dead In the door
way. The brakeman was shot In the
arm. and made his escape from the car
to the ground. Fearing he would give
the alarm and cause their capture, the
bandits fed.
Then the boy showed that the blood
Of heroes Ia transmitted to succeeding
generations. He pulled the body Of his
father inside, and secured his money

WARNED BY ANIMALS.

Symptoms of Fear Displayed by Them
Prior to an Earthquake.
There are many symptoms Of unrest
and apprehension shown by domestic
animals before the serious earthquake
of 1897 in the Riviera. The facts then
observed correspond generally with
those remembered In the case of the
other great disturbances Of earth and
air. A number of cases are given In
which horses, dogs, a monkey and even
ducks showed signs Of panic for day.
two days, or even longer, before the last
great earthquake. A lady Mt Nice re-
marked the bad condition of the horse
she usually drove, and told her coach
man to take 1t home and bring an
other in brougham from the livery
stables for her. The hired horse SEEM
ed as timid and as weak MS her own.
The driver then said that all animals
were "off their feed"

the day before the shock which de-
stroyed much life and property. re-
fused to enter the house where they
were generally anxious to come. They
were all spiritless, dull and scared. A
small lapdog which usually sat on the
arms of his masters chair ut meals
refused to occupy his usual seat. But
perhaps the most striking evidence
that the animals were in state Of fear
was that the cows in the diaries sup
plying the coast resorts seemed terri
fed and the quantity and quality OF
the milk suffered. AS the farmers and
peasants Of the district are noted for
their skill and knowledge In dairying,
small facts Of this kind affecting the
Yield Of milk and butter would almost
certainly be noticed and remembered.

quaint Actions and Bright Sayings
Of Muny Cute and Cunning Children.

When the writer was a small boy he
tlisdained to play with paper dolls or
any other sort Of doll babies. for no
boy among his acquaintance would play
with girls playthings; but the unwrit-
ten law which forbade boys to amuse
themselves like the little girls did not
forbid them to make playthings for
their sisters and sisters friends, and
SO it happened that the long winter
evenings were Ofttimes spent with scis-
sors and paper making furniture for
the girls to start them In housekeeping.
Nowadays all manner of paper furni-
ture printed in gutdy cOlOrs can be
bought ut the toy shops. and paper
dolls with dresses like queens can be
had ut the same shops for Il few cents;
still there Is good reason to believe
that the workmen who design these ar
ticles have more real pleasure In their
work than the children who buy them.
There is more joy in making things
than there possibly can be In possess
ing the work OF others hands, and that
Is one reason for describing the follow
ing simple furniture. which any little
girl can make for herself. Another
good reason Is that no child can make
the simplest toys without acquiring a
certain amount of skill. and skill Is edu
cation OF brain and hand.
DO not let this alarm you, girls. Edu
cation has a solemn sound. and brings

The Crave in MY Heart.

They are covering the graves OF our heroe
With the loveliest flowers they can bring
And the tender memories mingle
With the fragrant blossoms OF spring.
For the graves belong to the nation;
She claims and makes them known
And she counts among her heroes
He who once was mine alone.
Yes. they cover the graves OF the brav'
ones
With tender and reverent hand.
And the low and mOurnful music
Steals soft forth DER the land.
They cover the graves OF our soldiers.
Each one In his place apart;
They cover the graves with the MOVERS
What shall cover the grave In my heart?
The faith In his wisdom and kindness.
The knowledge OF infinite love,
The trust In the hand that gnideth.
The comfort that comes from above.
The memory Of days he was with me
Ere the pulse Of my heart seemed stilled,
The treasure that heaven now holdeth
Because OF his law fulfilled
These blossoms shall sweeten and hallow.
With their silent subtle art.
And heap up their blessed comfort:
They shall cover the grave In my heart

There are several shining lights
who have suggested remedy.
whereby the factions can be brought

in smoke. But it is worth the effort
and the greatest honor will be con-
fired upon the individual or indi-

such jealouses in the Republican

The rule or ruin policy always

quarters. He sang, swore, shouted
and provoked the profanity OF his
fellow prisoners by rendering sleep
impossible.
When Rumpf was arraigned in
court yesterday Patrolmen Kra use
and Werner testified that he ha d
been abusive to them. calling them
opprobrious names, withthe prefix
"Irish" in each case.
"You were entirely mistaken as
to the nationality of the officers"
remarked the Recorder. Neither
Of them happens to be Irish"
"Oh." replied the prisoner, "if l
had known tina. / would have ad-
dressed them differently. You see.
there are so many Of these around

against her husband.
