But TEDDY-B. each time he tried,
Approached the stone from his bottom side,
And once he slipped clean through the knot
And down TO the ground like ball he shot;
And as he rubbed his under bones
lie said some things about blamcy stones
Which sounded neither sour nor sweet
But which Pat nor his horse didn't dare repeat
But like Bruoe's spider of years gone by
TEDDY-B would try and try and try
Till at last he landed right end TO
And get barney enough to see him through
Then of they went from place to place,
Buying slulIalahs and Irish lace,
And driving donkeys al rapid pace.
And riding on trains quite new to bears
And counting money 70 pay their fares;
In shllings and pence and sovereigns bright
Which mixed them up from morn till night

To Barney Castle in jaunting car
(The driver said II wasn't far
They went that day their respects to pay
To the barney stone which the Irish say
If You kiss just right as you kiss your wife
Your words viii be sweet throughout your liz
But to kiss Just righ;" said TEDDY-G,
rs an Irish trick too smart for me;
had tumbles enough on the steamer deck
AM I don't intend 10 break my neck"
But kiss we must" said TEDDY-B,
we both need barney, you and me,
And some for gifts Tor I'm sure there's none
At the present time IN Washington"
With the help Of Pat who drove chem out
They got a rope both long and stout
And each the other pulled alone
Hand over hand to the barney stone.

Said TEDDY-G. at Killarney Lake,
To lad who sold potato cake,
How much for hundred crisp and brown
And tin Of milk to wash them down.
The lad replied Sur, / don't know;
A hundred cakes take lot Of dough;
They're tu-peuce apiece and good and hot
And the milk you see IS all I've got.
The Bears were hungry; they bought the cake
And the milk III the tin they said they'd take.
Then the lad, he drove them round the lake,
And took them to see where he lived alone
In d .hatch-roofed cottage built Of stone.
With this Irish lad they spent the night
And by fire of turf and candle light
They sat iOr hours and stories told
OF their mountain home and the hunters bold
And the trip they made and the fun they had,
And the things that happened. good and bad.
They gave tie lad, when they lett next day,
A purse OF gold, enough to pay
For a suit OF clothes and shoes and hat
And ten shllings more for his Irish cat

And got INTO mischief everywhere;
But they finished their Irish trip one night

And dressed themselves from head to toe
Like Irish lords at an evening show
For said TEDDY-B, I've read at home
OF man who travelled once TO Rome,
And there he follwed customs new
And did the things the Romans do"
But TEDDY-G didn't live by rule;
He was ont for fun and he'd play the fool
Or be a duke, he didn't care,
For clothes" he said, don't make bear"

And "Begorra It was and "Bedad its thru

LONGEST COLD SPELL.
Below Zero For More Than 40 Days In
Destruction Of Range
Cattle Complete.

Washington, Fec. 4,-Reports re-
ceived from Montana and North Da-
kota have convinced those connected
with the weather bureau that the de-
struction Of range cattle is complete.
For more than 40 days the thermom-
eter has not registered as high as zero
over large area, and Saturday morn
ing a fall Of from Is to 20 degree was
reported, with a wind which blew from
so to 60 miles an hour. 1t was the
blizzard following the extreme cold
which 1t is believed win do the dam
age.
Four days ago cattlemen from that
section Of the country reported that
so per cent Of the cattle had been de-
stroyed. 1t Is impossible TO secure an
estimate Of the financial loss.
II was said at the weather bureau
that all records had been broken for
continuously low thermometrical read
ings for any section Of country here
tofore considered available for hus-
bandry or cattle raising. There have,
Of course, been much greater extremes
Of cold in Canada, where agriculture
is followed. but in no section Of the
habltable world where agriculture has
been attempted has the thermometer
remained below zero for 50 long per
iod as 40 days.

of liberation being passed about thirty
years prior to the emancipation of the
slaves in the United States.
Although the island has been subject
to hurricanes and sometimes to slight
volcanic disturbances, it was not
thought that it was in any grave dan
ger from visitation Of this kind, and
when tia, British insurance companies
some months ago offered TO issue instr
ance policies covering fire caused by
earthquake in place of those having n
such clauses the jamaican merchants
deemed that the chances of disaster
from this source were not sufficient to
necessitate change. On June I, 1862
an earthquake occurred which swallow
ed up the greater part of the old town
of Port Royal, once a place of much
wealth and Importance, but that was
gotten about it. There are two noun
tains of volcanic origin in the island
but heretofore they have not been ac-
tive since its discovery One of the
two extinct volcanoes, called the Black
mountain, near Port Antonio, is report
ed to be showing signs of activity.
Near jamaica in 1882 occurred the
celebrated naval battle in which the
British Admiral George Bridges Rod
ney defeated the French under De
GraSse. The contest ragged fiercelv
without intermission for nearly twelve
hours. Rodney's victory saved Jamaica
to England and ruined the naval power
of France and Spain. AS a reward for
his services he was raised to the peer
age as Baron Rodney and given pen
sion of f2,O0O per annum. An imposing
monument was erected in his honor at
Spanish Town. which was formerly the
capital of Jamaica.
