to divide the expected crowd into rec
ognized citizens and persons not rec
ognized; to require the former to go
to the right and the latter to the left.
OF the latter there was not single
one. 1t was told that last night there
were not in Charlestown 10 persons
besides citizens and military.
There is but one opinion as to the
completeness of the arrangements
made on the occasion and the absolute
success with which they were carried
out. I have said something abo.t the
striking effect of the pageant as a
pageant, but the excellence of it is
that everything was arranged solely
with a view to Efficiency and not for
effect upon the eye. Had it been in
tended as a mere spectacle it could
not have been made more imposing;
had actual need occurred it was the
best possible arrangement.
You may be inclined to ask, Was all
this necessary? have not time to
enter upon this question now. Cover
nor Wise thought it necessary and he
said he had reliable information The
responsibility of calling out the force
rests with him. 1t only remained
for those under his orders to dispose
the force in the best manner. That
this was done is unquestionable, and
whatever credit is due for it may
fairly be claimed by those who ac-
complished i'll. T. L. Preston.

WAYS OF THE FOREST PEOPLE.
Wild Animals Have to Work Hard
for Living.


for Living.
Paul B. Du Chaillu was speaking OF
his experiences in Africa the other
day and happened to refer to animals
as talking.
"You think animals talk, then?"
asked one of his hearers. Does a
monkey, for instance, have certain
word or expression for 'water?"
Probably not for water" said Mr..
Du Chaillu, because monkeys in their
natural state very seldom, If ever,
drink water. They eat berries and
fruits which contain water. But
there is no doubt that animals talk in
certain ways among themselves.
81 have watched gorillas great
deal. They have some humor in their
makeup. A number of times | have
seen gorillas go to the plantain fields
of the natives to forage. Sometimes
they would get their after herd of
elephants had struck the fields, and
when herd of elephants get through
with a plantain field there isn't much
left on the field. Everything is
trampled down fiat. Well. have
seen gorillas come up to field which
had been thus devastated, and have
heard them laugh and guffaw for
several minutes at the idea that they
had been forestalled by the elephants.
I could imagine an old gorilla saying:
'Ha, ha! That's a good jokel
We knew these poor natives were
growing plantains here and we had
just been keeping our eyes on the spot
until the fruit should be ripe. And to
think those big elephants got in
ahead of us. Isn't that good joke,
thought
81 have heard ono gorilla call an
other which was seven or eight miles
away when the first had found some
berries in profusion, and | have seen
monkeys apparently deliberate among
themselves for long time before
making some move. That reminds
me that animals have to work hard to
get living, even in forests where
there is an abundance of vegetation.
Some animals travel miles every day
to get food, and then have all sorts
or trouble in picking out safe spot
in which to rest for the night That
is where the elephants have hard
work-in selecting a spot to rest.
They seem to have the same hatred
for snakes that human beings and
| most animals have. They will care

The Bermuda Lily.

The Bermuda lily was introduced
INTO this country in 1875. Two plants
IN bud and bloom were brought IN
Philadelphia by lady and given to
florist This florist, approaching their
beauty and value, cultivated the plants
Tor the bulbs. Since that time tbe
exporting of the lily-bulbs has been
one of the industries of Bermuda
Very few lilies are exported. as the
cut flowers do not arrive in good con.
dition. Nor does it pay to export the
growing plants, because of the duty
and the cost of freighting so delicate a
cargo. The bulbs are exported all
over the world ard are a valuable
source of revenue. Thus these great
beautiful lilies have new signifi.
canoe. They bloom that, dying. they
may come to life under new condi.
lions, where they surpass in beauty
what they were in their native home.
The cultivating of the bulbs means
special care of the flowers, for to this
care is due the quality of the bulb

Teach Your Child to Love Nature

If nature be the teacher, we need
never fear that our children have be-
come pupils too soon, because hers is
not examining method Every little
mind brought in contact with her is
piled necessarily with knowledge, it is
true, yet as freely as the air is drawn
into the lungs and fills them, giving
with each respiration new vigor and
life, even so does Dame Nature i'm
part her instruction to the mind
Often she may require q preeeptor
Let us not fail to be that preceptor,
and show our children how her book
always lies open before them, waiting
to be read filled from cover to cover
with every living, growing thing
about, and that nothing is too insig-
nificant to find place among the
pages. If they become well acquainted
with her they will love her, and will
have gained besides a knowledge
which will never be forgotten, nor
relegated to the attics of the brain on
account of disuse. In view of this
would it not be wise to let our chill
dren give up the first seven or eight
years of their lives to the tutelage of
nature alone?--Gertude Dixie Gaskell
