Calling the Flowers.

-The wind is shaking the old dried leaves
That will not quit their hold,
The sun slips under the stifened grass
And drives away the cold
"Child Franco carries the dinner horn
To summon home the men;
She raises it high for ringing blast.
But silent it falls again.
."The men on the hill are hungry, know,
They've been working for hours and hours;
But first will blow soft note If cam
To call out the sweet little flowers.
FOR the flowers and buds are dear little things,
And must not be frightened at ALL
So pray you be gentle, you noisy old horn!-
Perhaps they will come if call.
"Blow high for the blossoms that live in the trees.
And low for the daisies and clover;
But as soft as can for the violets shy,
Yes, softly and over and over.

well, sir, that little fellow rode
with me for two years. took q
great interest in him. and he got so
tame he would come right up into
the cab and eat lunch with me. I
inquired and found that Mike as
we called him, was one of the de-
spised English sparrows, but we
didn't despise him; we thought the
world of him-Joe Hennesey, my
fireman. and !.
I'VE didn't know what crusade
was on against the sparrows or we
would have looked out better for
Mike, but one day when we came
through Kokomo Mike missed his
train. Tt was the first time he had
missed it since we had made his ac-
quaintance, and we worried about
him throughout the whole run. When
we got back to Kokomo on the re-
turn trip we learned that there had
been a great slaughter of sparrows.
and we knew little Mike had been
one of the victims. LIZ
SWELL, it just knocked us out. We
had learned to love the pert little
rascal, and we mourned for him as if
he had been some close friend or re-
lation. And, strange as it may seem,
things began to go wrong right 1
away. A draw head went out all
most every day for week, and one
of the driving rods snapped off and
nearly ended us both. the second trip
we made without our mascot.

and died, and had green cub in
with me who got me into trouble
every day, and then I had narrow
escape from running into a work

MoRGUE ATTRACTS CROWDS.
M0rbidly Curious Persons, Principal.
ly Women, Go to Gaze Upon the
Unknown Dead.

If there is one place on earth that
the average person in a sound and
perfectly normal state of mind wants
to shun it is morgue. The charac-
teristic scenes of such an institution
do not tend to increase happiness or
infuse the nervous system with I'M
usual stability. But the reverse is
true, and a person whose mind is not
infected with morbidity revolts
against the horrors of death as they
are pictured through the lids of the
rows of glass-covered boxes in the
public viewing room of the Cook
county morgue, says the Chicago
| Tribune.
Yet scores of persons, women as
we'll as men, find particular delight
in gazing through these glass tops
at the white-robed figures resting
within. AS a matter of fact, good
many of these morbidly curious per-
sons make it a practice to visit the
morgue whenever they find a chance,
and for some inexplicable reason
revel in the grewsome sights there
presented to their gaze. Some of
them make it sort of ''hangout'
and amuse themselves by calling the
attention of casual visitors to GER
tain of the bodies that have been
prepared for burial.
1t may be that a young woman
will greet you as you enter the I'M
canny room and with objectionable
familiarity ask you if you want to
see some unfortunate victim that has
met death in such way that the af-
fair was placed on the epublic's lips
She will actually appear offended if
you choose to regard your visit to
the morgue as a solemn affair and
refuse to assume her light, airy and
fippantly curious manner. g $50
Whenever a murder victim or some
other man or woman who has died
under extra ordinary or sensational
circumstances finds a resting place
on the cold slabs of the morgue the
number of curious people who fall
over one another to gain view of
the unfortunate's face is astonishing.
Some of them will stand for half an
hour looking and then turn away

and address lii ht and impertinen
remark to some one else in thu
crowd.
The observations of men who art
employed about the morgue are t.
the effect that women are more NOR
bidly curious than men. A man will
enter the room, walk leisurely ii
front of the rows of glass cases, look
hurriedly at the pinched and diseas,
distorted faces leering up from with
in, and then turn and go out. Not
so with the women who throng the
place. They cannot be satisfied with
anything less than five minutes be.
fore each body, and oftentimes they
will make the rounds two or three
times. The uncanny spectacle seems
to possess a peculiar fascination for
them which they cannot resist.
Comparatively few persons have
business at the morgue, and they do
not enter into the class that goes
merely to "look." If man or won.
an is called to the institution by the
death of a friend or relative they
are too much undone to add to their
detection by viewing all the bodies
on exhibition. So the crowds that
throng the little room on the sec.
ond floor of the building are for the
most part composed of morbidly
curious people. f
II never saw anything like it," said
one of the attendants at the moreue
the other day. Actually you have
to drive people away from here. j
don't know what the attraction is,
for am quite sure if business didn't
call me here, this is the last place
in Chicago I would think of coming
to. There are women who visit the
morgue two or three times every
week, and I never have been able to
find out what their mission is. They
come in, look around, and go away"

Underrround Mou.t.,,,

A very curious result of recent OPP
erations by the trigometrical survey
in India is the conclusion, stated by
Maj. Burrard, that there il in the mid
die Of India an underground, or buried,
mountain range a thousand miles in
length, and lying about parallel with
the chain of the Himalayas. This con-
clusion is based on the singularities
OF the local attraction Of gravitation
in central India, the plumb line being
DETECTED southwark on thesnorth side
of the supposed subterranean chain
and northward on the south side,
leading to the inference that a great
elongated mass of rock OF excessive
density underlies the surface of the
earth between the two sets of observ.
