A BEAUTIFUL MEMORIAL.

Water Flowers In Cemstsry.

Water Flowers In Csmetsry.
Miss Carrie d. Jackson, 1851 Chapel
street. Cincinnati, who was born and
reared in Dearborn county, Ind.
prompted By her love for her late de-
parted brother. George W. Jackson.
and other members OF her family now
resting In the family lot In Greendale
cemetery. at Lawrenceburg. Ind. de-
sired to erect something new and
beautiful to their memory. A happy
idea came to her. She would have a
large vase constructed, containing pots
OF flowers, and set II in the center Of
a flower bed. Within the vase there
should be a tank OF water, which by
Its own automatic force each day
would water the flowers In the pots
and also the flowers In the bed planted
around the foot OF the vase.
Accordingly she went to work. en-
ployed a mechanic. superintended the
construction herself, and In a few
weeks her ideals were realized. The
original vase may be seen In Green
dale cemetery. The tank hasa capac-
fly OF about one-half barrel Of water
and must be filed every two weeks.
During the heat Of the day the water
slowly drips from the large tank into
a smaller one. By evening the small
tank Is filed. and by its weight 1t
closes the valves Of the large tank
and opens the valves below, thus al
lowing the water to dow from 1t and
refresh the flowers during the cool
hours Of night. By morning the small
tank is empty, and the weights lift IT
into position again, the lower valves
close. the upper ones open. and the
tank ILLS as on the previous day.
When Miss Jackson completes the
ornamental design OF her vase and
perfects the mechanism as she has
planned 1t will be thing Of beauty.

The Nomadic Impulse.
rom the indianapolis Sta


The spirit of vagabondage is not an
uncommon thing. Perhaps it may be
called universal. though in most persons
it manifests itself only at intervals and
as a passing mood. Few are the men
and women who do not feel at some
time or other a drawing to the primitive
life. They find relief from the conven-
tional existence by camping In the
wilderness; they look with half envious
interest on the vans of the gypsies; they
seek their recreation in places SO remote
from civilized centers that 1t matters not
what are the fashions and manners OF
the world. The man who goes hunting
is animated more by a secret spirit OF
vagabondage than by any wish to fll his
bag with game. He goes fishing not to
catch fish so much as to sit by the river
and fancy himself released from bonds
and burdens that conventional life i'm
poses
The song Of the road sings itself in
every ear at times; the call OF the wild
is heard by more than the few. In
every heart is felt now and then an i'm
pulse to shake OFF care and hampering
loads and escape into the open. The man
looking from the window of the Pullman
car is not always conscious of superior
advantage over the tramping wayfarer.
Sometimes, on the contrary, he would
change places with him. The woman in
costly attire driving by in her carriage
sometimes secretly envies the occupant
of the wayside cabin. whose ragged cot
ton gown and bare feet trouble her not
at all

LABOR IN POLITICS.
Resolution Proposing Permanent Po-
Icy Before A. F. L.

DENVER. Col, November 10.-The
American Federation of Labor opened
the second days session of its twenty
eighth annual convention by listening to
the report of the executive council.
The appointment of the committee on
rules and order of business and the other
usual committees followed the adoption
of the report of the executive committee.
The president then announced sthat the
convention was open for business and the
reception of resolutions. Not few reso-
lutfons have already been sent to the sec
rotary and they were referred to the
committee on resolutions.
According to the constitution, resolu-
tons can be introduced from the floor up
to the close Of the session on Thursday
afternoon. All these resolutions will be
sent to the committee on resolutions, and
this committee will report them to the
convention from time to time during the
sessions.
One resolution which will come up for
consideration is expected to signify the
entrance of the federation into politics.
This resolution will doubtless be the
cause of a prolonged discussion.
