The Easter sunshine, cold and pale,
Through stained glass windows, drifting
down,
Rests, like brightly FURNISHED crown,
Upon n golden hnsd bowed low
Before me, in the second row.
Her red lips move in silent prayer
For all mankind-ah! does she care
That one poor sinner, kneeling near,
ls lost in haunting doubt and fear,
Whose litany this day must be:
"She loves me-loyes me not-loyes mop,
Dear, you for all the world have prayed
prayed for you. sweet Easter maid!

The survival Of two mice for several
days in q closed glass tube in the
laboratory of.two French chemists, Ere.
Degree and Balthazard, recently, caused
great surprise, aud led to investign-
tion. There was nothing to explain
why they had not died of asnbyxiatiou
but the presence Of a small block Of
bioxide OF sodium which had been left
at the tube. Tests were then made
with rabbits and dogs. They were
shut up in hermetlcaily-seale glass
receptacles containing bioxide Of
sodium and only enough air for pro.
longing life lew minutes. On open
ing these after lapse of five hours the
animals were breathing regularly aud
placidly. Then divers helmets were
INSTRUCTED with lining of sodium
biUxide. with the remarkable result
that the divers could stay below water
for AN indefinite period. The chemical
reason for this seeming mystery is
simple: Sodium bioxide has strong
affinity for carbon. Whenever oarbonia
acid gas is present, it combines at onca
with the carbon; at the same time ia
sets free proportionate quantity on
rure oxygen. 1t IS predicted that thisi
discovery will be OF great value, not
only in submarine work, but ic ordi \
nary home life. Windows need not hsI
opened in winter if this regeneratinl
substance is kept in our rooms whionl
means less cost for heat, and less
danger of taking cold. The air id
hospitals, churches, factories, sohools.y
can be kept pure. Mining operations
can be more safely conducted 'Scien!
tific collins" can be constructed, sd
that in case of burial alive death need
not ensue for lack OF air, and noticed
can be given. The applications, iu1
fact, OF this discovery are almost end-g
less. -Philadelphi Methodist.

The sinking fund bonds that will
mature during the ourront year are
the following:
Series SO, due April /, 1901.,.. SIS. $50
Series "a, due Oct. l, 190l., 5,6O0-$S0, $50
Among the bonds due On April 1st,
1901, is one for $1,000, Issued to the
Wilmington Fountain Society, which
has been held by this commission dur
ing the past ten years as collateral
security. On April 1st, 1891, sink
ing fund bond Tor 600 issued to said
society, matured, but could not be
found and was reported to be lost. 1t
was duly advertised and all persons
warned not to negotiate it, The society
executed and delivered 10 the commits
sion bond of indemnity to the Mayor
and Council for $1,000, and deposited
as collateral security the above men
toned sinking fund bond due April
LIST, 1901. The amount Of the lost bond
was then paid to the society. The lost
bond has not been found and we beg to
ask that definite instructions be given
to this commission as to the disposition
to be made OF the bond held as col
lateral security.
In view of the provisions made by
recent acts of the General Assembly
for the further issue of sinking fund
bonds, we deem 1t important to report
that in order to maintain the syste-
matio operation Of the sinking fund
plan, S24. 600 OF such bonds must be
issued as part Of series 116, which will
mature October LIST, 1918, and S4T, 900
AS part OF series 144, which Will mature
October LIST, 1926. Both of these series
are now open, but when the above
bonds have been issued will be closed.
Additional bonds, whether authorized
by the aforesaid acts of the General
Assembly or by acts passed hereafter,
must he issued as new series. by the
operation of the sinking fund plan, IL
duly authorized, $40, 500 of bonds may
be issued as series 145, to become due
April LIST, 1927, and s72, 600, as series
LAG, to become due October LIST, 1927.
In all $685. 200 of new sinking fund
bonds may be issued, when author
lied, in the several series above mem
toned. 1t will thus be seen that IL
there should be no fun ther issue OF

pleted, the entire funded debt of the

SMALL BOY KILLED BY FALLING LUMBER Was Playing With Other ChiI- dren When Accident Occurred HIS HEAD BADLY CRUSHED Pile of Humber at Third Avenue and 'Twenty-second street Falls, Pin.
 nlne Down the Body of Ed
 AWIn Raymond.
HIS HEAD BADLY CRUSHED

While playing with five or six other children about the corner of Third av- enue aH1 Twenty-second street, Edwin Raymofi, the seven-year-old son of MT. and Mrs. M. A. Raymond, was killed instantly last night at 7:45 o'clock by a quantity of heavy timber, piled nearthe sidewalk. falling on him and crushing his head horribly.
 The little fellow had been dead perhaps twenty minutes before his absence from the other children was noted or his body lying cold and lifeless discovered. His body was found by a little son of Mrs Moore, who resides opposite the corner where the lumber fell. The little fellow ran from the scene of his playmates bloody body screaming, and In few sec onds a crowd collected.
 The boy was half covered by the heavy timbers. His face was bloody and his hair clotted. His head was horribly crushed the skull fractured, and 1t IS thought death came instantly with the tumble of the lumber.
 The body was carefully picked up and carried to the boys mother, who had been told of the find by Mrs. Moore. MT. and Mrs. Raymond live in the Drummond Hotel which adjoins a building being erected, in which the lumber was to be used. The dead child was bathed and laid on one of the beds In his home.
 Just exactly how the accident occurred no one is able to tell. A building is being erected at the corner of Third avenue and Twenty-second street by the May berry Hardware Company, and quan- ttty of lumber is piled about the place awaiting the carpenters saw. The chil- dren were all playing about the corner after supper, when suddenly, without any warning. one of the Jumper piles tumbled over. No one noticed that little Edwin was near this pile, or that after 1t Tell his happy voice was absent from the laughter and shouts of the other players. Finally the little boy of Mrs Moore ran down the sidewalk near the fallen pile.
 As he dashed by he saw part of small human form protruding from under the heavy mass Immediately he ran scream ing from the sight, and soon quite a crowd collected about the place. The tim Der was quickly removed from off the body and the ghastly find made. Mrs. Moore went to the Drummond Hotel and informed the mother of her sons death. No one else was injured by the falling of the timbers. .s;gIi
 M. A. Raymond the father of the child, is furniture dealer and is we'll known in the city His son was a happy little fel- low and his loss will be deeply felt.
