TOT LIIt IbnsOf--
RUN THEM TO EARTH.
BY WILLIAM HAuGHror.

Run them to earth and stamp them out
Ye feet offoot--brave hearts and stout
There's blood upon their tracks and ye
Can find them. II alert ye be,
And let the law no quarter give
Assassins have no right TO live.
Men by your fathers blood baptized,
To freedom, honor. nobly priced;
Fer from the foul barbaric time,
When might WAS hand In hand with crime.
Would ye turn back or tolerate
The wolves that hunt you by their hate?
believe mo, there's no other way
To meet foul murder than to slay
The killer-when 10 crime he's born
He'll mock at mercy-love hell scorn--
Such miscreants are only Gt
For prison house or felon's pit.
The life that now In danger lies
Tho chief whom all his people prize,
Is worth ten Thousand such as he
Who seems the tool OF anarchy
Run them to earth ye loyal men
And smote them from their DEVILS den.
Oh Good-thou God OF peace divine!
Love and omuiscience are Thine
OFT hast Tboussaved Thy favored land.
From treachery by Thy strong hand
stretch forth Thine arm and shield us still
From ali who would subvert Thy will.

SEASONABLE SUGGESTIONS.

Clean up, improve and beautify the
town. The streets of Jerusalem were
kept clean by everyone sweeping in
front of his own dooryard. Let the
citizens Of Mineral Point clean up
their own houses, their own yards,
and from the curb to the middle of the
street. The city authorities do more
and more each year toward crossing
cleaning, street cleaning, and general
improvements; but it is the duty Of
householders generally to turn out
with n will and help along the good
work. All manner of rubbish, loose
stones, etc, ought to be removed from
streets and alleys now in the spring
time; and then the work Of cutting
and clearing away grass and weeds in
the summer time would be an easy
matter. Get up and go ut the work
these fine mornings. Early rising
and outdoor exercise will do you
more good than medicine, and the re-
suit will be an attractive town.

The idea of n short session of the

agino that laws can cure the ills OF

The people could have short scs-
sions If they would. They should
watch closely their representatives in

these bodies. If the people would be-
stir themselves and attend caucuses,

BLOSSOMS THAT EMIT LIGHT.
When the Pollen Bursts Electricity Is
Generated With Faint Flashes.

When the Pollen Bursts Electricity is
Generated With Faint Flashes.
To a woman belongs the honor of
having first discovered flowers that
emit light. This woman was the
daughter of LinAeaus, the celebrated
Swedish naturalist One evening.
when the aged man and his daughter
We're walking in their gardens, she
called his attention to some nastur-
tiums glowing with a faint phospho-
resent light. They removed these to
a perfectly dark room and there
viewed the ghostly Illuminated flowers
for hours, trying to solve the mystery.
:. Since that time, says the New York
Herald, a number of different flowers
have been found to give forth a light,
among them being the corolla of the
common sunfiower; also a species OF
tagetes, called by the French botanists
the rose d'Inde," and the large and
beautiful compound flower called in
this country the dahHa.
Luminous nasturtiums," writes Pro
fcssor A. Frederick Collins" have
been frequently observed in Golden
Gate Park, San Francisco. l observed
one evening a number of persons
bending over an iron pot full of mas
turtiums. Curious to know what the
attraction was l fell into line until it
became my turn to inspect the flow
ers at closer range.
Il was surprised to see a flash of
light dart repeatedly from the yellow
petals. The next day 1 photographed
it.
"A strange fact regarding the phos-
phorescent light emitted by certain
