OUT OF SKlFF.
Jarbeau Harvey Goes Down and
Never Rises Again to the
Surface.

A six-year-old negro boy, known as
Jarbeau Harvey, a son of Robert Har-
vey, a we'll known carriage driver
about town, was drowned in the Ar
kansas river Wednesday evening
about sunset. Though an unremittent
search has been made for the body, it
still reposes in the muddy Arkansas.
The drowning occurred at the foot of
Alabama street, not twenty-five feet
from the bank and few feet from the
spot where the Flukers were killed.
1t seems that the boy was playing
IN a skiff which was moored to the
bank. In some way he became over
balanced and fell overheard. Thers
were some spectators nearby, and it is
said they never saw the bodS after
sinking the first time.
The river was dragged until dark
intervened last night, and again this
morning, but the body was not 70.

A little Too Enthusiastic.

One of the many things Prof. Brew
er is interested in is the Agricultural
experiment station maintained by the
state of Connecticut In the outskirts
of New Haven. One day the professor
took his sons through the place, ex-
planning to them the different pieces
of apparatus. They were particularly
interested in certain machine de-
signed to smoke cigars automatically,
whereby the finest ash possible is OBJ
tanned and analysed.

Statue of Ram eses II.

Among the many colossi with which
Rameses II adorned the different
temples throughout Egypt there is no

the world in full bearing, and certain
ly no tree that grows yields SO many
different products or is put to so many
separate uses. Its wood is used for
buildings and for boats, as well as for
ornamental furniture. The leaves are
the sole thatch of tens of thousands
of buildings and afford useful food for
cattle. The natives also make good
brooms with the ribs of the leaves,
while the ashes contain so much pot
ash as to be useful in soap-making.
From the trunk of the cocoanut
palm oil barrels, tubs and water pipes

Pennies. 1000 Years Old.

The extraordinary resuscitating
power of light received a very curious
Illustration few years ago in the si,-
yer mines at Laurium. The mines
had been abandoned more than 1000
years ago as unavoidable, and con
sisted for the most part of Stag
produced by the working of the
miners. An enterprising Briton dis
covered that the mines contained
plenty of silver which could easily be
removed by the superior modern APP
pliances. He discovered however,
5omething more valuable than the sill
ver-viz., some peoples of species
which had disappeared for twenty cen
turtles, the seed of which had lain dor
mant beneath the Stag for 1000 years.
When the Stag was removed to the fur
uace the next visit to the mine found
The entire space covered with a most
gorgeous show of peoples. After their
twenty centuries rest they had

Parrot Race Extermlnated.

Ornithologists will regret to learn
that Buildings amazon parrot, a rare
bird inhabiting the mountains of st.
Vincent, has in all probability become
extinct, owing to the recent volcanic
phenomena in the island.
The species was said formerly to
occur only on the Souffriere, hence it
became known as the Souffrere bird.
The great eruption of 17lS drove
many specimens to seek shelter in the
other highlands of st. Vincent, but
their numbers were considerably re-
duced by the fearful hurricane of 1898,
and there is no reason to fear, so | am
told by an pathological friend, that
the few survivors have all persisted In
the eruption of May last.--Scotsman.

hat were, apparently, at play Mr.
Stork declares the snakes were raised
fully three-fourths of their length
from the ground, and were knocking
their heads together in playful man

in each other that they paid no at
tention to the approach of Mr.. Stork,
who cut a club about eight feet long
from small pine sapling, and at the
stroke so stunned both snakes that
they were easily dispatched without
further trouble. The snakes were
brought to Grand Bay and measured,

Helen Harvey was to spend her va
cation at her aunt's cottage in She
boygan, where the wash of old Lake
Michigan should take the place in her
ears of the buzz of a department
store.
She was full of anticipation as she
sat in the northbound train. Two whole
weeks to be out of doors and free,
and Tom was coming up by Sun
day.
Dear old Tom. She thought of
Decoration Day, when he had told her
his dream of fitting up little fiat
and making a home for her, some
day.
She had given him no answer as
yet, but had promised to decide be-
fore Sunday.
He was her kind friend but like
many other young girls she still
waited for the hero of her dreams,
and started out on her little outing
with all kinds Of delightful possibili-
ties in her mind of meeting the un-
known.
Meanwhile Tom stood behind the
counter and measured off laces, and
ate cheap lunches that he might buy
box of Allegretti's for Sunday even
ing.
Helen tried to readumSa 'fn,oaS
!, more looking out -
woods through which they were
passing. Suddenly she was minded
to look at her purse and see
If her trunk check and the two crisp
five-dollar bills which she had bought
for return fare and extra expense
were safe.
The check had slipped out of sight,
and in searching for it she held the
bills between her fingers.
The train turned sharp curve just
then, and a strong current of air
swept the car. Instantly the money
fluttered from her fingers and out of
the open window.
Passengers and trainmen were kind
and sympathetic, and the conductor
gave her a stop over check at the next
station, that she might walk back and
look for the money and come on by
O later train.
She remembered that it was just at
the curve, and the conductor said it
was about two miles back, SO she had
some hope of finding it.
But the tears would come as she
thought of the precious money. SC
hard to earn and so hard to save, and
of how she must write home for
more.
In spite of her trouble she was in
fiuenced by pure air and beauty Of the
scene to stop to pick some wild roses
for her belt.

became absorbed in her search; sc

When stars Are in the skies.

When stars are in the quiet skies,
Then most l pine for thee;
Bend on me Then thy tender eyes,
As stars look on the sea!
For thoughts, like waves that glide by
night,
Are stilest when they shine;
Mine earthly love lies hustled In light
Beneath the heaven of thine
There is an hour when angels keep
Familiar watch DER men,
When coarser souls are wrapped In
sleep
Sweet spirit, meet me then!
There is an hour when holy dreams
Through sumber fairest glide;
And In that mystic hour 1t seems
Thou shouldst be by my side.
My thoughts of thee too sacred are
For dayllGhts common beam;
can but know thee as my star,
My angel and my dream;
When stars are in the quiet skies,
Then most | pine for thee;
Bend on me then thy tender eyes.

The American Race.

A recent bulletin of the census bur-
eau touching the nativity and descent
of the population of the United,States
furnishes an interesting theme for
comparison and comment. By this
it is shown that in 1900 of every 1000
inhabitants S63 were born in this
country and 1877 elsewhere, so that
less than one seventh were foreign
born, and many of these came here
in childhood. Both parents of 657 in
each 1000 were natives of the coun-
try, and of S4S one or both parents
were born abroad. In 276 cases both
parents were of foreign birth, in 45
the father only and in 20 only the
mother.
Taking together those who were
born abroad and those whose parents
were foreign born, it is found that

THE Ir1NORTAL LINCOLN.

The introduction in Congress by
Senator Cullom of a bill providing
for commission to secure plans and
designs for monument to be erected
to the memory of President Lincoln
remarks Leslie's Weekly, may serve
to call attention to the strange fact
that while the name of our first mar
tyred chief magistrate, the great
Emancipator, is probably held in more
tender and affectionate remembrance
by the American people than that OF
any other man, the monuments erected
to him are notably, few. The most
cago. The:only others worthy OF men.
ton are one IN small park east OF
the Capitol at Washington, one in
Philadelphia, and one in Union
Square, New York. A life-size bronze
statue of Lincoln was recently com
pleted for the Buffalo Historical
Society. which has not, at this writ
ing, been placed. While this pauclty
of memorials to the illlustlious man
who piloted the nation through the
darkest and most critical period IN Its
history cannot be attributed to cold
or willful neglect, the fact is not Gre
ditable to the patriotism of the Amer
lean people. Lincoln's name is craven
in deep and imperishable characters
in human history and he needs no
tablets of stone or marble to keep his
memory fresh and dear to all lovers
of liberty, but monuments to such
men have a value for their associa-
tions to future generations which
should not be ignored even in this
utilitarian age.

Quotation rIarks.

Speaking of the use of quotation
marks, the London Chronicle says:
But why all these inverted commas,
"the silly trick of peppering pages
with these uncouth bacilli?" You
will find none of these bacilli in the
Bible. Take this passage, chosen at
random:
Now Jesus knew that they were
DESTROYS to ask him. and said unto
them, Do We inquire among yourselves
of that / said, A little while and ye
shall not see me; and again, little
while and ye shall see me?
The modern compositor would set
that passage between two brackets of
inverted commas, for it is a quote
within a quote. But it is beautifully
clear as it stands, and among all
Biblical misunderstanding no one,
we think, has been misled by the alb
sence of an inverted comma.

season continues until June 10. The

caught by Salem county fisherman
amount@ to 6, 1863, 500 for which was
received $145, S75. The following year
6, 759. 600 pounds were caught and
the sum received amounted to $131,
095. Since then the catch has de-
creased until this year the catch was
trife over 1900, 900 pounds and the
total sum received will not foot up
$50, 900.
