Immortality.

Less than year ago Joseph jefferson.
the actor, wrote poem having to do with a
possible future life which critics pronounce
one OF the daintieSt productions of its kind
in existence:
Two caterpillers crawling on a leaf
~ some strange accident in contact came;
Inelr conversation passing all belief
Was that same argument. the very same
That has been ''proed and conned" from man to
man.
Yea, ever since this wOnderous world began
The ugly creatures,
Deaf and dumb and blind,
Devoid of features
That adorn mankind,
we're vain enough in dull and Wordy strife
10 speculate upon future life.
niie frst was optimistic full of hope;
said number one, Pm sure of our salvation.''
Said number two, I'm sure of our damnation.
oui ugly forms alone would seal of fates
And bar our entrance through the golden gates
Suppose that death should take us unawares.
How could we climb the golden stairs?
II maldens shun us as they pass by,
would angels bid us welcome in the sky?
wonder what great crimes we have committed
That leave us so forlorn and so unptied?
il1,sir r. we've been ungrateful, unforgiving
Come, come, cheer up the jovial worm replied
Lets take look upon the other side:
suppose we cannot fly like moths and millers,
EARTH
a prey to every bird that's given birth,
forglve our captOrS as he eats and sings
a nd damn poor us because we have not wings?
II we can't skim the air like owl or bat,
= worm will turn for that"
nhey argued through the summer autumn nigh
ne ugly things composed themselves to die;
ana SO TO make their funeral quite complete
Each wrapped himself in his little winding sheet,
he tangled web encompassed them full soon,
Each Tor his coffin made him cocoon.
All through the winters chilling blast they Law
Dead to the world. aye dead as human clay.
Lo, spring comes forth with all her warmth and
love
she brings sweet justice from the realms above;
She breaks the crysalis, she resurrects the dead
Wo butterflies ascend encircling her head.
ana SO this emblem shall forever be
sign OF immortality.

Strictly Genuine,

are probably genuine. The following no.
tice recently appeared in the Atchison
(Kan.) Globe: "Joe Tack, well known
engineer, running on the Missouri Pacific
between Wichita and Kiowa, lately appear
ed in big one, with picture, and when
about it. He says he had terrific pains in
his stomach, and thought he had cancer.
His druggist recommended Kodol and he
says it cured him. He recommended it to
others, who were also cured" KOdol Dys-

Mr.. Gould Bars Liquor.
Especial Despatch to the n. Y. Herald

Especial Despatch to the n. Y Herald.l
P1TTsBURG, Pa, May 3. There will
be no liquor saloon in the Wabash Rail
way station in Pittsburg. George Gould
has so decided, and word was sent to
Pittsburg today that no drinks would
be dispensed there.
A strange part of the affair is that a
license has already been granted here
for barroom in the station, but acting
under orders from Mr.. Gould this
license will not be used.
This will be the first time on record
that a license granted in Allegheny
county under the Brooks law, where it
costs 81, 900 for a certificate, will not be
used by successful applicant.

Fannie Hayden at Fault.

Judge Clarence Hale of the United
States district court has handed down
an opinion in the libel of Horace NJ.
Sargent and others of Portland against
the schooner Fannie Hayden, in which
he holds that the Hayden was at fault
and orders a decree in favor of the
parties bringing suit. He appointed a
master to assess damages. The decision
grew out of the collision of the Hayden
and the fishing schooner Lottie May in
January, 1904, southwest of Outer
Green Island in Casco bay, in which the
Lottie May was sunk.

When you 90 to a drug store
and ask for SCOTS Emulsion
you know what you want; the
man knows you ought to have
it. Don't be surprised, though,
it you are offered something
else. Wines, cordials, extracts,
etc., OF cod liver oil are pIenti-
ful but don't imagine you are
getting cod liver oil when you
take them. Every year for thirty
years we've been increasing
the sales of SCOTS Emulsion.
Why? Because It has always
been better than any substitute

j. Wilkes Booth. the assassin of
the president, is son of the dis
tinguished old actor, Junius Bru-
tus Booth, and a younger brother
of Junius Brutus Booth, Jr., and of
Edwin Booth, who also are actors.
He is young man of slender form,
nervous and wiry. Two years ago
he made the significant remark
What glorious opportunity there
is for man to immortalize himself
by killing Lincoln. The assassin
was ~ years of age. Five years
ago he was the leading actor at
Montgomery, Ala. There he was
regarded as trifle crazy. When
the present war began John Wilkes
avowed himself an ardent seces-
sionist, and he always persisted in
his disloyalty. His brothers Juni-
US and Edwin are most decided
Union men, and several quarrels
have arisen between the brothers
on this account. Although so
slightly built ninety-five men out of
hundred would be no match for
him at fighting. He is dead shot,
a fine fencer, a thorough horseman,
and a master of the dagger or bowie
knife. He is a rare specimen of
manly beauty; not tall, but most
gracefully formed, with regular
features, large dark eyes. dark
brown hair and perfect complex
