Ballad Of Incidence.

Some people, like the bee, we find
Will toll all day with patient skill:
Or, with the Industrious ant in mind,
Will labor up the steepest hill.
Some endlesSly will grind a mill
Or run a factory or steamer:
Others a fallow field will till
I'd rather be an idle dreamer.
Some may be of a studious mind,
and all night long, till morning chill,
At ponderous, musty tones they'll grind
Until from overwork they're i'll;
They'll analyZe a fish gill,
Or learn the habits of the lemur,
Or trace the platypus' bill
I'd rather be an idle dreamer.
Some think that in their souls enshrined
Fair genius sits, with throb and thrill,
Ger myriad pages closely lined,
All feverishly they push a quill.
I'd rather hear the woodbird's trill
Or watch a lazy, floating streamer:
OF all fair things, had l my will,
I'd rather be an idle dreamer.

Satan, I fear no mischief still,

I've no ambitions to fulfill,

Famous Actors Cutting Rebuke to
Group of Club Men.
The real bohemian does not wish
to be put on show for the delectation
Of persons who do not understand
him. There is a story told of Maui
rice Barrymore which illustrates this
point. Entering the famous bohemian
club in New York one night, he found
a lot of commercial men in full pos
session. They greeted Barry" eff
fusively. He had hardly gotehimself
fairly sat" when one of them slap
ped him on the back and said: Bar
ry, speak us a piece" Then a chorus
said: Eyes, get funny, old man; cut
up. We've all heard that you we're a
great entertainer" Barry glared
around for a moment and then said,
quietly: I'll do a handspring for
you, gentlemen, but l cant speak a
piece" Then he reached through the
silence and picked his hat on the
hook. That vas the last time he
entered the club.

HOW INDIANS CATCH FISH.
Einny Prey First Put to Sleep With
"DeviT's Shoestrinu,"

)
"Devii's Shoestrina."
On the LIST of July the Indians will
pave near Sonora a big fish killing,
which is considered great sport by
them. Already a supply of devils
shoestring" is being gathered for this
purpose. This is the root Of a certain
bush, and owing to the fact that these
tons, it is considered quite a task to
get sufficient for use at a fish shoot.
On this particular occasion it is
said that $500 bundles of devils
shoestring" will be used. The Indians
select a portion or hole Of water in
the river, and some of them will beat
up this root and throw it in the water.
This is repeated by another party OF
Indians a considerable distance from
the first party, and the water be-
comes ~impregnated with the juice,
and the effect on whatever fish may
be in this particular place is marvel
Gus. They become sick and float
on the surface of the water, and then
the shooting begins. The Indians
shoot them with bows and arrows and
spear them. After a sufficient guam
tity Of fish have been gathered in,
they repair to the hills and banks.
The cleaning is done by the squaws,
and after they are cooked the feast
begins. While the fish are sickened
and stunned by the juices from the
root, the meat is not affected.-kan'

THE ORIGIN OF SURNAME S.
They Were First Used in Normandy
Before the Conquest.

Before the Conquest.
Neither Hebrews, Egyptians, Assyri-
ans, B%abylonians, Persians o Greeks
had and in the earliest
period of their history the same may
be said of the Romans, says the Wav-
erly Magazine. In course of time,
however, every Roman citizen had
three names-the praenomen, or per-
sonal name; the nomen, or name OF
the gems or clan, and the cognomen,
or family name, as Publius Corelius
Scipio. Conquerors were occasionally
complimented by the addition Of a
fourth name, or agnomen, commemor-
alive of their conquest, as Publius
Cornelius Scipio Africanus.
1t is impossible to state with any
degree of certainty when the modern
system of personal nomenclf,u be-
came general. 1t has been stated that
the practice of began in
Normandy and extended to England
after the Norman conquest, but a
document in the C%ottonian manuscript
quoted in Turner's History of the
Anglo-Saxons" contains reference to
Invita- HATTIE, a keeper of bees in
Hathfelda; to Tate HATTIE, his daugh-
ter, mother Of Wulsige the shooter,
and Lulle HATTIE, sister of Wulsige.
The date of these records of the
Hates is not to be as~certained. but
they were certainly written before the
year 1906. So far as antiquarians have
been able to discover HATTIE is the
first whose existence can be
traced in England. It is not improb-
able that the founder of the HATTIE
family was SO called because of some
unusual or noticeable %headgear that
he was in the habit of wearing.

After = week had elapsed Cornelia

l-aroe Rhode Island Hav cron.

The one salvation of Rhode Island
farmers this year is the hay crop,
which has been almost phenomenal,
the records of the State Board of Ag-
riculture showing a very great in
crease in the size of the crop over
preceding years. The afterfeed has
not come up as we'll as might be ex-
pected on account of the cold wealth
er. but 1t is on the big hay crop that
the farmer must get his money this
year; and very few grangers will be
able TO show a balance on the right
side Of the ledger with the advantage
OF increased hay money, as the pota-
toes and fruit in many sections of the
state will be a dead loss.-Providence

Southern Strawberry PICKING.

Norfolk, Va, men shipped north in
n day recently 1920 crates of
strawberries, or about $4,000 quarts.
The season was at it's hight last week,
and some of the growers in the vicin-
ity had between 800 and 400 negro
pickers at work. They begin at day
break and carr from 81 to $1.25 a day
in wages. The average yield this sea-
o is about $500 quarts to the acre.
The crop in that section is about 20
per cent short, but the berries are
better than usual. The negroes do
not pick the berries one at a time, but
grab handfuls. A plantation owner
said that his workers from a distance
looked like q gigantic flock Of black
birds.

CHAPTER XIV.
"Hush! Love Is Here!"

"Hush! Love Is Here!"
On the morning that Hyde sailed Tor
America, Cornelia received he let
ter he had written her OF the dis
cOyery of Rem's d~ishOnorable con-
duct. So much love, SO much JOY,
sen. to her in the secret foldinGs OF a
sheet of paper. In a hurry OF delight
and expectation she opened it, and
her beaming eyes ran all over the JOY
fnl words it brought her-sweet fut-
tering pages, that his breath had
moved, and his face been aware OF.
How he would have rejoiced to see
her pressing them to her bosom, at
some word OF fonder memory or de-
sire.
In the afternoon, when the shopping
for the day had been accomplished.
COrnelia went to Capt. Jacobus, to
play with him the game of backgam-
mon which he'd become an almost
daily duty, and to which the captain
attached a great Importance. Il owe
your daughter as much as Owe you,
sir" he would say to Doctor Moran,
land | owe both CT you a bigger debt
than l can clear myself of"
This afternoon he looked at his vic
it0r with a wondering speculation.
There was something in her a and
manner and voice he had never before
seen or heard, and madape-wno
watched every expression OF her hus-
ba1d-was easily led to the same OBJ
servation. She observed Cornelia
closely. and her gay laugh especially
revealed some change. 1t was like
the burst of bird sons in early spring
and she followed the happy girl to the
front door and called her back when
she had gone down the steps, and
said. Al she looked earnestly in her
face:
"You have heard from .Joris Hyde?
/ know you have!" and Cornelia nod
ded her head, and blushed and smiled,
and ran away from further question.
When she reached home she found
Madame Van Heemskirk sitting with
her mother. and the sweet old lady
rose to meet her, and said before Cor
nelia could utter q word:
NOAlC W IuC, NOluClfd. Ills Hlc IL
ing q letter we have had from my
Joria. and sorry am | that | did thee
% much wrong"
Madame, l have long forgotten it,
and there was a mistake all round
answered COrnelia cheerfully.
THAT is so-and thy mistake first
of oil. Hurry is misfortune; even to
be happy. 1t is not wise to hurry. Lis
ton now! Joris has written to his
grandfather, and also to me, and very
busy will he keep us both. His grand
father is TO look after the stables, and
to buy more horses, and to hire serv-
ing men of all kinds. And a long let
ter also | have from my daughter
Katherine, and she tells me to make
hfer duty to thee my duty. That is my
pleasure also, and l have been talk
Ing with thy mother about the house.
Now I shall go there, and a very pleas
ant home l shall make it,"
Then Cornelia kissed madame, and
Afterwards removed her bonnet, and
madame looked at her smiling.
For nearly q week Cornelia was too
busy to take A-enta into her con.
sideration. She did rot care to tell
her shout Rem's cruel and dishonor.

Popular Contest excursionists
returned to Minneapolis a week
ago last Sunday and all report
the time of their lives. Miss
Gray and her companion, Miss
Lowen, of Aneta, have nothing
but words of praise for the able
manner in which those in
charge handled the excursion.
It was simply one continuous
expedition of sightseeing and
pleasure from the time the party
gatheredin Minneapolis until they
returned from the big fair.
The Tribune staff formed a
group of agreeable and thought
full people who made it their one
ambition on the trip to secure the
best of everything and give con-
tentment and unalloyed happi-
ness to each individual member
of the party. The leaders of the
group on the Tribune hospitality
board were T. E. Murphy,
manager of the tour; Mrs. F. E..

the manager; w. ]. Murphy,
Miss Annie Connolly, Mr.. and

i A fine orchestra was provided
for the trip down the river on the
boat. Miss Gray, as Queen Of
the contest" was treated royalty
by all and is just the person who
could have a good time and carry
out the part in her amiable, un
assuming way.
The whole party, as guests o!

did not stint itself in making the
trip a round of pleasure, gaiety
and mirth, was a very congenia
