campus. For a while he listened to
them dfeamily, then it occurred to
him that it might be interesting to
see what an up-to-date college ball
| was like, so he rose and sauntered
towards the gymnasium.
As he emerged from the maple
shadow. he found the combina ton
of music and moonlight so beguiling
that he was in no hurry to venture
| farther, SO he seated himself upon
! the steps of the chapel, which ad-
joined the gymnasium. directly be-
meath the symmetrical finger of the
spire.
To the north he could mark the
spasmodic twinkling of the electric
towers of Illica, and there, in the
vague purple distance to. the south
east, lay the Merton farm.
His face was set in this direction
when an unusually lively air from
the orchestra stirred him from his
reverie. With something like sigh
he turned towards the gymnasium
and was soon climbing. to the third
floor. AS he wheeled about to sur
vey the room, on reaching the top
stair, a gay spectacle met his eye.
Great streamers of old gold and blue
the college colors-were festooned
from beam to beam above the whirl-
ing dancers, and at intervals flags
and trophies captured at intercol-
legiate meets were suspended. There
was general flutter of gauzy fabrics
and blending of talk and laughter
that ever and anon surged above

What purity sight the wheat Is as it's

oh. it's good to be q farmer when the

It's lively in the city. and it's very quiet

There the hurry and the racket keep

There most every days excitin'. and they
keep IL up at night,
Every way a person gaZes there is some
uncommon sight.
And L s'pose it's never lonesome livin'
round the haunts of sin;
But the city people never have their
crops all in. -
There's many a day of toilin'. and there's
many an ache and pain.
And there's lots and lots of frettin' at the

There's the weeds and worms and insects

But the good Lord doesn't often fail to

And the sweetest satisfaction that a NOR

Sort of hovers round the farmer when

Sylvia Densmore; and yet he often
DRY of her winsome personality car

drawn him back to Hintonville and
the reunion with his college class
mates.
1t was his first holiday since he
had begun work upon the Evening
Star, and it proved to him a time of
restful delight-delight within whose
translucent amber he was conscious
of but single flaw. Three of the
four days for which he had been
granted leave of absence had slipped
by. Should he on the morrow drive
over to the Merton farm and have a
chat with the good people-Jack
Parmelee and Mr.. and Mrs. Merton
and their daughter? Every night
since his arrival in Hintonville he
had put to himself this question, but
the visit was yet to be made. Pas

JUDICIAL DIGNITY.

Cost to the Court of the
Prisoner.

A certain squire of the city, who betrays
his patriotism by presiding in small Of
fee painted red, white and blue, had a
case before him the other day which at
tracted an unusual crowd to the temple of
justice. A young fellow was up before him,
relates the Pittsburg Dispatch, on a charge
of stealing brass, and his friends were out
in full force to see that he got a fair
show.
Before the case opened the noise and
confusion became SO great that his honor
declared that the next man to indulge in
any unusual outbreak would be elected
from the room. He had hardly ceased
speaking when a young man shouted, at
the same time waving his hat above his
head:
"Hooray fur Squire Hooligan!"
"Put him out,6 reared the court. and in
another instant the young man found him
self being rushed to the door. Order hav-
ing been restored once more, his honor or
dered that the prisoner be brought before
the bar for trial. The court officer hur-
riedly glanced about through the crowd
and then a great light suddenly fell upon
him. - -
Cant do it -your honor" he replied.

Didn't Specialize Too Much.

Youth is ambitious, but the average
college professor, though not unduly

on the fact occasionally. A professor

He says that the rats were not cheap ones, for they ran over a bunch of Hot Springs tickets, which are valued at but Sl70. and made the nest out of the $1O tickets. He also intimates that the rats are from St. Louis. and gives as his foundation for this belief that the rodents have been raised on St. Louis food and when they came to Little Rock picked out the St. Louis fare.
 The parts of tickets were collected in waste basket and will be sent to St. Louis for redemption.
 The rats are some of the breed that infest the old Station and have made their homes there for many generations. Passengers who have slept in the wait ing rooms while waiting for the night trains allege that often they are awak- ened by rats scurrying across their feet and if they happen to have basket of lunch along by the sound of the box or basket, as it is pulled from the seat to the floor by the rats.

A COSTLY RATS NEST.

J. A. Hollinger, city ticket and pass enger agent of the Iron Mountain Route had costly curiosity in the shape of a rats nest on exhibition at the Union Station office yesterday. The nest was made of railroad tickets and mileage books of a face value of nearly $500.
 About month ago the bay window was taken out of the ticket office, and in putting in the new window a num- Der of shelves were put under shelf in front of the window, they being closed by doors. On these shelves MT. Hol- finger had stored the various coupon tickets and mileage books.
 Neither the tickets. nor the mileage books are of any value unless counter signed by MT. Hollinger, or one of his assistants, and stamped with the office dating stamps. However, when they are furnished by the general passenger department they are quoted at face value and the agent is responsible fol every ticket. When a supply runs out he must account for every ticket, either by sale or it's being void.
 Underneath the window shelf were stored several thousand dollars worth of blank tickets, among them being g package of "one-way' St. Louis tickets This ticket is about ten inches long and three inches wide. There were also g number of 1,00O-mile mileage books Yesterday Day Ticket Agent Wright sold the last of the St.Loius tickets he had in his case, and went in the shelves to get more. When he pulled out tht bunch of 100 he was mortified to see that all the lower half was gone from about half the package. Then he made an investigation and found that fivt mileage books had also been partially destroyed.
 When he checked up he found tha there had been destroyed fifty-one St Louis tickets of value of S10.46 each, { total of $533.46, and five 1,000-mileagt books, of value of $50 each, or $250, z total of $763,46.
 Mr. Hollinger says this is about tht costliest rats nest he has ever seen. O.

QUIET AND JOYFUL.

All quiet and joyful in Belgrade. Yes terday religion seemed to give its sanc- tion to the murder of the late King and Queen. At the cathedral a great thanksgiving service, including a Te Deum, was celebrated. The Ministers attended the service, which was carried out wi:h the stately ceremonial of the Greek Church. The aged Metropolitan, in vestments of purple and cloth-of- gold and with jewelled nitre, was sur rounded by the bishops and priests of the Cathedral Chapter. Half the con gregation was composed of army off cers in full uniform. The Ministers wore dress suits and all their orders. The Metropolitan, ill brief address. congratulated the nation on the restora- ton of the Karageorgevitch dynasty, a dynasty which had included so many brave and noble men. While deploring the necessity for recent events he thanked the army for what it had done and praised it's behavior.
 Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God" The Servian murderers seem to be popular, and though their actions have been apparently condemned by the new King they don't seem to be in much danger of condemnation. If they should happen to get into trouble per- haps there would be some more resist ance to tyrants in Belgrade.

MELLER'S MIND AND WORK.

Miller, the get-rich-quick man who did business in New York and made himself and others fairly prosperous by offering 520 per cent. to investors. has been testifying concerning the frame of mind Ee was in when. he was doing "business." Asked if he wrote the cir culars advising the public to invest with the Franklin syndicate and promising rich returns, he said: Yes, wrote most of the circulars. But at the time I knew that the promises were impossible. I knew that was lying. believed that every married man lied more or less. Dr. Parkhurst has said that every man is something os liar. and I believed what he said. I went to some brokers to invest some of the money intrusted to me. I followed their advice and lost s1,000. learned that they had wilfully have to lie to get along. All that kept out of the proceeds of the Franklin syn dicate was practically stolen from the subscribers.
 This is frank and cynical. Perhaps it will not be instructive to those who seem to be born for the use and profit of such swindlers as Miller, but it ought to be.

fl KANSAS BURIAL ASSOCIA7ION.

-~
 Queer things :h Kansas. The pro- hibitory law, for one thing, and the evasion of it for another. In Newton, Kansas, there has been for some time an organization known as the German Burial Association. To all appearances this society has been engaged only in the work of caring for the dead after the fashion of burial associations ev- anywhere. The surprise of the people may be appreciated, therefore, when the sheriff swooped down on the asso- ciation's rooms, arrested the associa- tion officials and captured a large amount of liquor. The chief official pleaded guilty and was fined $100, and the liquors were destroyed by the order of the court, after it had been deter mined that the association was in real ity nothing but drinking club. The manner in which the character of the place became known to the officials is rather interesting. One of the members of the association had broken one of it's rules and the board had fined him s25. For this sum he gave his note, but when it fell due he failed to pay it. Thereupon the association garnisheed his wages, and, made angry by this proceeding, he went to the county att torney and revealed the secrets of the order.
 Doubtless this Burial Association has buried much rum, but it will bury no more. Some of it's members will, how ever, have their own private graveyard.

ONE MOR F.

Hope springs eternal in the human breast, and especially in the consump- tive breast. So there will be new hope on account of the very latest "cure" for consumption. This cure is made in Germany and seems to have it's mer- it's even if it may not turn out to be in- fallible. It is called Sanosin. Robert Schneider, a German merchant, in trav- cling in northwestern Australia learned that the natives used as a remedy for consumption a decoction made by boil- ing the leaves and roots of the eucalyp- tus tree. He also noted, it is said, that natives living where the eucalyptus grew abundantly were free from con- sumption, and that natives having con- sumption sometimes moved into the eu- calNptus country with beneficial results. Mir. Schneider, with the aid of chem ist, prepared the combination of flowers of sulphur, powdered charcoal and pull
 verized eucalyptus leaves. now called Sanosin. When the mixture is heated the eucalyptus evaporates and, with the small quantity of sulphurous acid fumes given off, medicates the air. The treatment is by inhalation. The sub stance is placed on a heated plate in a closed room. It rapidly evaporates, fill. ing the air with ar aromatic, penetrat- ing odor. The patient breathes the fumes without any inconvenience to himself.

German specialists had good results. A special hospital ward was opened and various departments of the work were assigned to physicians. The patients treated were from the poorest classes. Only those were admitted to the ward who were beyond any possible doubt suffering from progressive tuberculosis. A considerable number of the one hun dred and twenty, patients treated had the disease in such an advanced stage that hope of relief by any ordinary means had been abandoned, and yet nearly fifty per cent. of the patients were discharged as cured. Some of the patients were permitted to engage in their ordinary occupations while the treatment was being administered. The hospital records show that as soon as the treatment began there was an abatement of bad symptoms. The bac- illi disappeared rapidly from the spu- tum; the irritating and wearing cough passed away; the appetite returned. Cure of the cough permits the patient to get the requisite amount of sleep. Restoration of the appetite opens the way for the repair of the waste brought about by the disease.
 There is something attractive about a cure for consumption which can be in- l1aled and thus reach the spot where the disease is most manifest. If the new cure only cures some it will be well worth having.

A COW and a young lawyer supplied one of the humorous incidents of the flood at Topeka. The COW succeeded in reaching the big Melan bridge. She wandered back and forth disconsolate- 1y, and occasionally gave voice to a n1ournful below. On Saturday the heart of a young lawyer was touched by the spectacle of such distress. He got boat and a bale of hay and started to the relief of the animal. On striking the current in one of the streets he was promptly upset, and nearly drowned. Not discouraged, he got another bale of hay and another boat and for the second time heroically essayed the passage. This time he suc- ceeded. He carried the bale well up on the bridge, cut the wires, spread out the hay, and drove the COW up to it. She gave one sniff and contemptuously walked away. She had been just | twelve hours off grass, and her paunch was still full.
