WHO STAND AND WAIT.

The bare boughs stretch to the empty
sky, cold, solitary;
They writhe in the shifting blast, yet
cannot escape it;
So with my heart-the trees and my
heart are comrades Of old.
The winds Of April are filled with the
JOY Of singing;
The blossoming peach-boughs feel the
touches of light wings
oh, that my heart sang too, that my
winter were endcdl
When the wheat ripens 10 harvest
and bends in billowing waves
to the wind,
Overhead the clouds pass, silent,
swift,
And their shadows darken the wheat;
Even SO, in the glory Of summer, there
passed DER my life
That which darkens it evermore.
Glorious, cleaning on crimsons and
ruSSetS,
On yellows and green's, the autumn
sun;
The corn stands blcacned in the rows,
In orchards the apples lie rudy and
cool
Purple and heavy and fragrant the
grape-clusters hang
TIC all the earth is the JOY OF fruitago,
Yet sit / solitary, my heart untitled.

A TO2PE:D0E:D
TORNADO.
BY FRANK LILLE POLLOCK.

On Friday Paul Matthews found
himself within few miles of his
home, at Fayette, in southeastern
Ohio, and he decided to drive over
and spend Sunday there. But Paul
Matthews and his wagon were not a
welcome sight in that region. The
town would not allow him to drive
within its limits, and he had to leave
his wagon a mile outside.
This was due to no personal preju-
dice. 1t was because he was by pro-
fession "well-shooter, and that red
painted spring wagon, with the red
flag, carried thirty or forty pints OF
nitro-glycerine, in mail tins packed
snugly in padded frames.
The business Of the well-shoOter is
well understood in the oil regions, and
his wagon becomes a familiar, though
always an alarming, sight. When an
oil-well ceases to flow. charge OF
high explosive fired at the bottom OF
the tube will often stimulate it into
activity again. 1t is the business OF
the well-shooter to supply this stimu-
lus and he drives about from place to
place with cart-load of nitrO-glycer-
Inc, and everybody allows him to take
the whole road when he passes.
Matthews had taken up the bust
ness from the natural propensity OF
youth to run big risks for the chance
Of large profits. He was growing ac-
customed to the risks, but the profits
were not what he had expected, and
1t had become distinctly unpleasant to
be terrifying object wherever he APP
peared. Moreover he found that the
continual presence and odor OF the
nitro glycerine tended to produce VIC
lent headaches and nausea.
He had left his wagon in little
patch of woods to the west of the
village. The horses were staked out
by long ropes, and every day he
walked out to feed and water them.
There was no danger of any ones
meddling with that outfit. Its red flag
was protection enough.

went out to attend to his team,

STRANGE HATS or THE EAST.
Same for Marriage and Same for
Burial.

Burial
1t is not an uncommon thing to
meet fasteners in London streets
wearing their national head-dress.
They are oftentimes dressed in Eu-
ropean mode with the sole exception
of their hats. The latter anomaly
is the outcome Of a struggle between
the eastern and western modes. The
west has not yet succeeded in her
work against the hat The hat eXer-
cises such a far-reaching influence
in Asiatic life that its position is not
easily assailed. A mans hat is in
vested in the nearer east with a dig
nifty which has no parallel in the west.
1t is his lifelong companion, says the
London Taller. He wears it not only
in the street but also at his fireside
and in his shop while working. The
Mohammedans go SO far as to keep
their hats on while in their mosques.
Persons who are lacking in courage
and moral strength are reproached as
mot being worthy to put on mans
hat because they will bring disgrace
to it," and are advised ito put on in
stead their wives shaWls.'
When a man has been staying away
from his town over long and his par
ents wish to bring him home they Sc
cure his hat and then proceed to get
a maiden and make all arrangements
for the wedding. The priest carries
out the marriage ceremony on the girl
and the hat, and one beautiful day the
distant traveller learns that he is now
a married man, and as it is disgrace
full in the Asiatic's eyes to leave ones
family in the care of others he hast
ems home
In many countries Of the east ''wo-
men must weep" There are towns
almost without man. Prosecutions,
heavy taxes, and debts of landowners
compel them to emigrate- always,
however, with the cherished hope OF
earning enough money to return to
their families; but, unfortunately,
some of them die in exile far away
from the paternal roof and then the
hats of these unfortunate victims OF
mistaken governments are sent back
to their families. They put it in the
coffin, the ordinary funeral ceremony
is held, and the hat is buried in the
family cemetery.
In the cemeteries Of the Caucasus
and surrounding countries you come
across tombstones bearing the follow
ing inscription: Here is buried the
hat of --, was born III IS, died
10, in foreign land. All who
read this please pray for his soul"
The most important Of Asiatic hats
are the following: The turban, which
is a piece Of long white linen encir-
cled round the head, and is used in
India and in Persia, in the latter only
by the priests. No Christian inhabi-
tants of those countries wear the tur-
ban. In Turkey, however the red
fez is worn by both Christians and
Mohammedans. Fur or ramskin is
the principle article of construction
in the hats. They are worn in the
Caucasus and in some parts of Persia,
and are very heavy and never wear
out. 1t must be understood that the
customs related here are preserved by
the older generations only. The new
generation is in every way copying
the manners of western civilization
and shedding the ancieAt dress.

UNITED STATES COURT DECISION
 BY IIDGE TOWNSEND.

Middletown, Feb. 29.-Judge William K. Townsend, of the United States court, has handed down his decision in the case of J. Burnett Nash, of New York, against the Worcester Cycle Manufacturing company. of this city, which has been in the courts for nearly seven years. The decision is of special interest to residents of this city, who are more or less familiar with the facts upon which the suit was brought. Judge Townsend in his finding says, in part:
 My conclusion is that the attaching creditor is entitled to have his claim paid, and that if the receiver has no no other available funds he should ap- ply the property remaining at Middle town, or forthwith dispose thereof, if necessary, for the purpose of satisfying said claim; and that if said property is not sufficient the special master (Beech- er) should pay over the sum in his hands, or so much thereof as is neces- sary, in addition to the sum realized from the sale of the property, to satisfy said claims. Inasmuch, however, as the original instructions to attach were limited to the amount of sS,0O0, the amount of Nash's recovery should be limited to the amount named in the or der of attachment, and in addition thereto he should be allowed a reason able sum from said fund for his reason able costs and disbursements necessa- rily incurred and expended in the pro- tection of his legal rights during the pendency of these proceedings

 This is an instance of an inherited trait" said one Of the trail critics. The obedience of English foxh9unds and their good maners in general is due to generations of use for the one pur- pose, the traits are inherited. It is why American foxhounds are not so good in packs, for they are from stock that has been hunted singly or in eou- pies. often to run foxes to a gun, so that the descendants do not take to pack work instinctively."
 Fudge and fiddlesticks," replied his neighbor on the rails, enthusiastically a son of the "Ould Sod.'' The hounds learn their names as soon as they learn to eat; in fact they associate the name with the thought of food and so are al- ways quick to respond to it. They are housed out when puppies with reliable and well-to-do farmers, under the strictest orders that the hound shall always be called by the given name and by no other title. The farmer at feed ing time, and at all times, calls for 'Streamer,' Fugleman,' or whatever the title is, and the dog very soon will

TRIED FOR JOKE.

Philip Cantore and James Mozart land, two boys of good appearance. were :.ned $7 each in the city court yester- day for the theft of an overcoat from Harmonic hall two weeks ago. The hoys declared they took the coat as a joke, believing it belonged to Frank Me- Gam. a friend, and the son of Police Sergeant McGann. Attorney Elliott defended them.

Four days elapsed before the boys were arrested by Detective Sergeant Dennehy. in which no attempt was made to find the owner of the coat. When confronted with Detective Cap- tain Cowles on their arrest the boys neglected to mention the joke end of the story. Judge Dow find them $7.

THE JAPANESE NATIONAL HYMN.

THE JAPANESE NATIONAL HYMN.
 The Russian national hymn is quite a modern production. while the Jap anese is, on the contrary. the oldest existing, and it may be also the shortest. It is known as 'Kimigayo," and when translated means somewhat as follows: May the reign of our sovereign en- dure for a thousand years. and for eight thousand more beyond that, until stones are not rocks anymore, nor moss any longer grows thickly." Although it is of immense antiquity, 1t has only been the official national anthem of Japan since that country first began to oecidentalize itself.-St. James Ga- zette

JAPANESE CHARACTERISTICS.
Some Things About That Country Tol

Some Things About That Country Told
 by a Native.
 While MT Uyehara has lived in Eng lish-speaking countries off and on for eight years, he speaks with decided his hearers at the outset by saying that usually all islanders were small, but there were many that were lead CTS. He recalled the fact that Napoleon was an islander. He told his hearers that very few people in the English speaking countries had any conception of what the Japanese were. He said most of them believed that Japan was a country of fans, teas and chrysan- themums, the people doing nothing but wearing gorgeous kimonos and drink ing sake Japan grew chrysanthe- nuns and also grew tea, but the Jap anese fan was product of England. The Japanese drank sake as the Am ericans did beer, and the kimonos wer used only by the ladies, The country was essentially a business one, just as much as any other enlightened coun- try. The Japanese were always looking for new markets for their goods and occupied the same position in the East that we did in the West. The country stood to-day as the rock of salvation and civilization in the East.
 The present emperor was the 18th of an unbroken line. It was the oldest reigning dynasty of which we had any knowledge, and beside which the reign
 ing houses of Austria, England, Rus sia and Germany appeared very mod ern. During all this time there had never been a revolt against the reign of the mikado, nor had his life ever been attempted. Anarchy was one of the unknown evils of Japan. This, per- haps, was due in some degree to the training which both old and modern Japanese gave to their children. The ancient daimio had taught his children that their first duty was to their em- peror and that to die in the service of the mikado was to go straight to the seventh heaven of delight. The little child had said it's first prayers with it's sword in it's hand. Its first lessons in school had been how to fight for the mikado and how to read. In the high CT schools had come more fighting and higher reading. All of this for the hon. or and glary of the mikado. The mod 1 ern Japanese taught the same thing | in the same way, and the parent, either | ancient or modern. demanded absolute | obedience In fact. the eighty years | old father thought no more of visiting | corporal punishment on the sixty | years-old son than the American father | did of christening the -year-old.-I News.
