That anthem grand was sung,

That anthem grand was sung,
Each passing year it's welcome notes
In Christian lands have rung.
A sound of hope to every heart,
OF cheer to every cline.
OF Gods enduring love for man,
The holy Christmas chime.
o spheres that sing! o bells that ring!
Lift up your tones to heaven.
That every wrong may righted be,
And every foe forgiven;
That ransomed lands their chainless
hands
May raise in every cline
To freedoms God, and hail with joy
The pealing Christmas chime.
o blessed bells. bring cheer to all,
The sad, the poor the lone,
Who, shivering, crouch by cherries
hearths
Or bowed in anguish moan;
Make human hearts with generous
deeds,
Enrich this festal time
That even Want and Woe may smile
TO hear that Christmas chime.

Christmas Chimes.

BY Una.
The golden lamps of heaven hung
bright
In Judahs midnight sky;
Like rays of glory darting through
The sapphire dome on high;
When down the azure avenues
Was borne in strains sublime
The trooping angels joyous hymn.
The first glad Christmas chime.
ITO God be glory, peace to men,
The happy angels sang.
"Illume a world in darkness hurled"
The starry cymbals rang.
"The Babe divine whose love shall
shine
Through every age and cline,
For Man is born this glorious morn"
So pealed that Christmas chime.
Though centuries have flown since

Let us all rejoice;

Sing it, sinful earth,
In excelsis Dec!
For the Savior's birth.

Iamone OF tne IrI8n eml9ranes
I'm sittin' on the stile, Mary,
Where we sat side by side
On bright May mornin' long ago.
When first you were my bride;
The corn was springin' fresh and
green,
And the lark sang loud and high
And the red was on your lip, Mary,
And the lovelight in your eye.
The place is little changed, Mary.
The day is bright as then,
The lark's loud song is in my ear,
And the corn is green again;
But miss the soft clasp of your hand
And your breath, warm on my cheek,
And still keep list'nin' for the words
You never more will speak.
Ills but step down yonder lane,
And the little church stands near,
The church where we were wed, Mary,
see the spire from here.
But the graveyard lies between, Mary,
And my step might break your rest
For I've laid you, darlin', down to
With your baby on your breast.
I'm very lonely now, Mary,
For the poor make no new friends.
But, oh! they love the better still,
The few our Father sends!
And you were all Il had, Mary,
My blessn' and my pride;
There's nothing left to care for now,
Since my poor Mary died.
Yours was the good, brave. heart, Mary,
That still kept hopin' on,
When the trust in God had left nv
And my young arms strength was
gone;
There was comfort ever on your lip,
And the kind look on your brow
I bless you, Mary, for that same,
i Though you cannot hear me now.
thank you for the patient smile
When your heart was flt to break,
When the hunger pain was gnawin'
there
And you hid it for my sake!
bless you for the pleasant word,
When your heart was sad and sore
Oh! I'm thankful you are gone, Mary
Where grief can't reach you more.
I'm biddin' you long farewell,
My Maryland and true!
But III not forget you, darlin'
In the land I'm goin' to;
They say there's bread and work TO,
all,
And the sun shines always there;
But I'll not forget old Ireland,
Were it fifty times as fair!
And often in those grand old woods
I'll sit and shut my eyes,
And my heart will travel back again
To the place where Mary lies;
And I'll think see the little stile
Where we sat side by side:
And the springin' corn, and the bright
May morn,
When first you were my bride.

Great soldiers Quick rhouoht.

Once during the Iron Dukes cam.
paign in the Pyrenees, it happened
that Gen. Picton's dispositions for re-
ceiving the assault of Marshal Soult
displeased him. The danger threat.
ened from in front, and the difficulty
lay in delaying the attack until We'll
iington could effect the change he
wished. He was, as usual, equal to
the occasion. Waving his hat in the
air, he galloped to the front of a regi-
ment as if he meant to order charge.
The whole Of Picton's line cheered ire.
mendously, and as the roar died away.
Wellington was heard to remark. half
to himself: "soult is cautious com.
mander, and will not attack in force
without ascertaining the meaning Of
these cheers. That will leave time
for the Sixth division to come I'D, and
we shall beat him" This was exactly
what happened, and Soult sustained a
bloody repulse where he might have
won an easy victory.

COMPOSED OF MANY ISLANDS.
Monroe County in Florida Is Probably
the Most Unique In the
Whole Country.

Monroe county is the most unique
county in the state, if not in the
United States. The larger portion Of
the county is made up Of a group of
islands or, as they are called, keys.
both on the east and west coasts. The
only part of Monroe county on the
mainland is the Cape Sable country,
the extreme south end of the United
States on the mainland.
The larger portion of this land is
what is known as the Everglades, and
but limited number of acres are now
under cultivation. What effect the
proposed drainage Of the Everglades.
Will have in Monroe county is not
known, but 1t Is doubtful II any large
areas will be drained because Of the
natness Of the country and being so
near sea level. In the vicinity of Cape
Sable there are large bodies Of rich
alluvial land and considerable quan.
tity has been under cultivation for
several years past.
All kinds Of tropical and semi.tropi.
cal fruit trees grow luxuriantly on the
Keys and bear full crops Of fruit each
year. Every key is surrounded with
water and the great portion of them
nave clean white sand beaches with
Diuns varying in height above high
water mark. All of these building
sites are in full view OF either the
ocean, gulf or bays.-Jacksonville

CONGESTION IN DELIVERIES
PROVES LEADING FACTOR
Continued Dry Weather in Corn Belt
Caused Early Advance in That Grain
September 65zs to eess-oats Firm
- Shorts Were Principal Buyers -
Provisions Quiet and Firm.

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-Wheat advanced
about a cent early today as a result
Of active covering by the shorts,
brought out by firm cables and con-
gested situation in the September de-
livery. leading all interests to being
credited with holding an enormous line
of that option. September started at
99T to 1.oo1s. and advanced to 1oO3s.
The receipts at Chicago, Minneapolis
and Duluth were 1876 cars.
Corn.
The continued absence of rain In the
corn belt caused a further advance in
corn prices early. The demand, how
ever, was not entirely in keeping with
the bulhsh news, the trade being only
moderate. September opened at SIS "a to
663s. and advanced to 665s. Receipts
were 1913 cars.
Oats,
Oats were firm The shorts were the
leading buyers. The expectation of a
falling off in the movement prompted
some purchasing. September opened at

FAT BEEvEs ARE HIGH.

Market Indicates Return of Prosperity
In Cattle Situation.
Chicago, Aug. 1S.-Twenty-fv per
cent of the native beef steers marketed
Monday sold at $500 and upward. good
evidence of returning prosperity in the
cattle market. The tops landed at
1855, seven loads of prime heavy steers
making that price, up to high point OF
the year. In the past three weeks the
percentage of $500 ard higher selling
steers among receipts has grown, and
the trade confidently believes that in
coming weeks of the fall trade good to
choice steers will Continue high in
price.
A surprising feature of the market
of late has been the liberal proportion
of beeves good enough to bring these
nigh prices. A few months ago the
trade predicted a scarcity of strictly
we'll FINISHED beeves for August, and
at that time 1t was believed that
scarcity would be the big factor in de-
veloping high prices, but 1t develops
that demand rather than scarcity has
been the chief price booster.
Cattle which bring $500 nowadays
must necessarily be OF choice grade,
and the big quota of these. kinds ~
late does not indicate much of short
age in corn belt feed lots. The ooun-
try. It appears, has been feeding more
high priced corn than was credited.
The result is a larger proportion of
good to choice steers for market, but
with a resumption of general business
activity, together with bumper crop
prospects as a stimulus to business
there is a much better outlet for beef
than few months back, and killers
are finding a freer demand for high
priced cuts than was anticipated. 1t
is the demand which above all is the
regulator of prices. At present there
is a wide call for good beef and killers
are paying the relatively high prices
freely.
The price range for cattle has widen
ed in recent weeks because of the big
variance in quality. Greater prosperity
usually results in stimulating the de-
mand for good beeves and thus are the
cheaper kinds still holding in a price
rut Western rangemen have pretty
good control over the market In their
line. Range grass is in good shape and
the holdings and the early season
movement indicate no desire among
owners to hquidate. 1t appears that
killers chances for prices smashing in
steer trade have gone temporarily at
least
