THE wHEELMAN.

(Minna Irving in Leslie's WeeklyO
When the apple trees are pink with blooI
And the lockwood boughs are white,
And every little budding leaf
With dew is fresh and bright,
And hooded Violets through the Bra99
Begin to shyly steal,
Then am up at early dawn,
And OF upon my wheel.
A sprig Of violet in my cap,
A song upon my lip,
1 see the ribbon OF the road
Beneath me smoothly slip.
There's health in every balmy breeze,
And, oh! what Joy to feel
The steed beneath you never tires,
When riding on wheel.
Not always do 1 spin alone
BY fields and gardens gay.
One morning fair / CHANGED to meet
A dainty form in gray.
The lightness of a merry heart
Her dancing eyes reveal,
She wears a silken streamer blue,
A-futter from her wheel.
We stop beside a messy rock,
Where flows a crystal spring,
The hollow of her rosy hand
Is goblet for a king.
We rest upon a ferny banR
And share a simple meal,
With appetites that only come
To those who ride wheel.
When purple grapes perfume the air,
And corn is In the shock,
And starry nights are still and cold,
And birds begin to flock,
And autumn gilds the smoky hills,
The wedding bells will peal,
And tandem we will ride through life
When out upon wheel.

Lesson of the Strike.

Cleveland Pain DeaIer.
The strikers have again learned the old
lesson that disreputable leadership can end
only in disaster and the public has again
been reminded that only men should be
elected TO public ONCE who are able to see
their duty and brave enough to do 1t. The
now closed tragic chapter serves TO empha-
size once more the fact, which not one
incident in the history Of industrial strug'
gle contradicts that a resort 20 violence
means a weak cause which sooner or later
becomes a lost cause. No strike yet has
been won by the means adopted in Chicago

Although drought is generally associated
in mind with the hot wave, the two are en-

crops affected by drought alone will
promptly revive If seasonable weather
comes in time, but If their vitality has been
destroyed by excessive heat no amount Of
moisture can restore them. Corn and cot
ton are among the worst sufferers, at a

Imperial Canal a River.

The stopping of the lower intake of the Imperial canal promises to give the new management good sized job, judging from the effect of the current as shown by the recent measurements taken by Photographer w. D. Smith. The greater part of the river appears to be flowing on the west or Mexican side of the island which lies in the river in front of the lower intake. On measuring this channel of the river below the intake, MT. Smith was sur prised to find it's greatest depth only seven feet. From these facts it may be estimated that about one-third of the river is down the Imperial canal, and as the volume of the flow in the canal is increasing while that of the river is decreasing, the conditions are likely to grow worse.-Yuma Sun.

Forests and waters.

Under the timber and stone act the government sells for S2.50 an acre timber lands which are sometimes worth as much as fifty or hundred dollars an acre. The commissioner of the general land office says off cially the government has already lost from $l00, ,O00, GOO to $ll5, ,000, 900 by the operation of that act. Why should the government sell the timber for less than it's market value, not only cheat ing itself, but, what is still more inn portant, lending itselfto the deforesta- ton of great areas aud the certain future impoverishluent of the water supply? There. is bill before the senate for the modification of the tim Der and stone act, which, by the way, has been a common source of fraud. That, or similar bill, ought to pass. There has been much opposition to the work of forest st-preservation. Some of that opposition was due to mistaken theories: some to interested motives. There is necessary connection be- tween forests and streams, nor does scientific forestry interfere, in the long run, with tke lumbering industry. Scientific forestry simply tries to have trees in existing timber-belts harvested at the right time and succeeded by another crop of trees. It also tries to make trees grow where they do not now grow and where they have not grown during living memory. The fifty-three national forest reserves cover 62, ,35i, ,965 acres. A bill reported favorably in the house of representa- tives transfers all these reserves to

Depends on Atmospheric Conditions.

The distance at which a mountain may be seen depends upon the point of observation and upon the clesrness of the atmosphere. In dry countries it is usually possible to see great dis tances-l50 to 200 miles, and even farther, when the air is particularly clear. Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, Arizona, southern California and the Great Basin region are noted for the purity of the atmosphere and the great distances through which objects may be distinguished.-Min- ing and Scientific Press.

The average man does not save to exceed ten per cent of his earnings. He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case he cannot be too care- full about unnecessary expenses. Very often few cents properly invested like buying seeds for his garden, will save several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chamberlain s Collie, and Diarrhoea Remedy. It costs but few cents, and bottle of it in the house often saves a doctor's bill of several dollars. For sale by all druggists.
