THE BATTLEFIELD.

 A desert place where grew no kindly herb; waste of sand where sphntered rocks
 lay dead, Where rivulets flowed not, nor flowers And smiting rays fell from the sun o er-
 head. One lonely figure robed in ashen gray, Whose patient eyes saw nothing, seeing
 all; Nor marked the shadows slow-revolving
 course, The flush of dawn. the purple darkness
 fall There rode no hosts led on by warrior
 kings; No trumpets sang; there waved no ban
 ners gay; No fierce assaults nor routed quick re-
 treats, But silent hours wore out the night. the
 day. Alone against a. world the leader stood Alone where ages met the parting ways, To guide alright whoever seeks the light, To shame from wrong with level loving
 gaze. There was the battle waged, the victory
 won, That conquered conquerors. that high
 above All greatness, glory, power and all law Forever fixed the empery of love. There triumphed He, our Corqueror and
 King,
 Who won for us, and made all earth His prize; Who gave His life for victory over death Who fell that mankind evermore should s4 rise o Tudor Jenks, in the Century.

Minnte Was Precious.

A taxpayer who desired information at the water registers office the other afternoon was suddenly cut off in this way:
 Say, M, look in your book and see if you have No - called out the clerk of whom he had asked information.
 "Ah, git out" replied M, don't yer see it's four o'clock?"
 "All right" said the first clerk to the taxpayer, 'tyou come around tomorrow morning and we'll straighten things out'
 The latter placed his documents in his pocket and wended his way to the ele- vator, but before he could board it he was almost taken of his feet by the rush of the clerks, to whom minute seemed marvelously precious.-N. Y. Post.

Washtub to Palace.

One month ago Mrs. John Dun
can Sinclair of Omaha, Neb., was
a poor washerwoman; today her
check is good for $4,000, and she
is preparing for trip to Glas-
gov, Scotland, where, at the final
settlement of the estate of Lord
Sinclair, she will come in for a
large share of the vast property
which goes to make up that earl
dom. With scarcely a word of
warning a draft for $4,000 was
placed in Mrs. Sinclair's hands,
and she was told Of the bequest
by which she was changed in a
moment from poor circumstances
into one Of great affiuence and
wealth.

Invested in Good Scheme.

Charles H. Weaver, until re-
Gently a merchant at Summit
Point, this county, had a very
narrow squeak from losing 1000
a few days ago. Several weeks
ago Weaver answered an adver-
tisement in a Cincinnati paper
that called for partner with ST.
900 to invest in a profitable busi-
ness. He fell into the hands of a
swindler named Flanders, in Bal
timore, who had a wonderful in
vention for manufacturing the
white of eggs artifcially. He
made some of the product in
Weaver's presence, apparently,
and they closed a deal by which
Weaver turned over to the swim
dler certified check for 1000.
Fortunately before the check
could be cashed Flanders was ar
rested by detectives for other
swindles and the check recovered.

Death to a Chicken Thief.

Last Sunday morning, says the
Kingwood Leader, a colored
brother in the vicinity of Austen
whose propensities for Sunday
dinner of ''yaller-legged" chick
ems had led him on a foraging ex-
pedition, lost his life and most all
his chickens. He had succeeded
in getting a mill sackful of the
farmers best, but was detained by
getting a late start home. Hop,
ing to make up for lost time, he
boarded a passing freight, and
later fell to his death by being
ground beneath the wheels of the
train. His chickens also came to
an untimely end, only two escap,
ing to tell the tale.

"A Check in the Ocean.

The mystery of the blank check
of the Bank of Union found in a
bottle cast up by the waters of the
Atlantic ocean on Wrightsville
Beach, N. c., is explained. 1t
was thrown into the ocean two
years ago by Robert W. Adair,
of cashmere. Mr.. Adair has the
following to say of the occur
renee: While visiting my sister,
Mrs. Dunn, in Wilmington, N. g.,
in April, 1902, we spent an even
ing at Wrightsville Beach. While
sau ntering along the water s edge
I picked up an empty bottle, tore
a check from my book, placed it
in the bottle which I corked up,
and threw it as far out into the
sea as I could, remarking to those
present, "Will it ever be heard Of
again? ?" Now | perceive from
newspaper accounts that it has
turned up after a voyage OF two
years.

BOILERS EXPLODE.
Most Terrible River Disaster in
Recent Years.

With a terrific detonatiOn, the
boilers of the towboat Fred Will
son exploded at 3:2O o'clock
Thursday morning at Louisville,
KY, killing twelve or fifteen men,
seriously injuring ten others and
completely wrecking the boat.
The crew had just finished max
ing up the tow of coal, which was
to be taken south, and were pre-
pairing to tie up to the bank, just
off River View park, when the
catastrophe occurred.
The explosion came without
warning, and so great was the
pressure and so large the boilers
that the big steamer was shatter-
ed into small bits, while the crew
was blown into the air, some fall
ing into the river, others landing
on the embankment, while some
less fortunate were caught in the
wreckage and killed instantly.
The upper works of the steam
er were torn completely away,
while the hull was so badly shat
tered that it sank to the bottom
instantly.
The known dead are: Joseph P.
Price of Pittsburg, captain; Al.
Miller of Louisville, pilot; Henry
Sykes of Pittsburg, mate; A. W. {.
Kinney, an insurance man of
Pittsburg, and friend of Capt.
Price making the trip as a pleas
ure excursion; Sherwin Shively,
engineer; VIM. Thornton, colored,
deckhand; Joe Warren, colored,
deckhand; four unknown white
men, all deckhands; cook and
steward, both white men.
The boat was built in 1883, and
was recently remodeled. The loss
is estimated at $4,000. The tow
of barges was loaded with coal
for New Orleans. The boat be-
longed to the Monongahela River
Consolidated Coal & Coke com
pany.

Monroe County Killing.

In John Walkup's cornfeld, at
the east end of Droop mountain
yesterday Lundy H. Perry was
shot and instantly killed by Grant
Cochran. From the best informa.
tion it appears that the two men
had been at outs for some time,
Perry went into the field, where
Cochran was plowing, and made
some remark in reference to for
mer difficulty they had had, when,
as the story goes, Cochran whip
ped out his pistol and shot Perry
through the body three times, kill
ing him instantly.
