GO TO SEE BIG SHAFT FALL

This started story that the monu-

took advantage of the Sunday holiday
to visit the monument to see it fall.
The monument watchmen say it is
not uncommon for pieces of marble
to drop from the shaft from time to
time, but they attach no significance
to it. Stone masons say that these
pieces falling from the seams eventu-
ally may necessitate the expenditure
of money in patching.

that Hans was his rival, for one Sat

Hulda had said:

Hans had responded cordially, but
Michael accepted the Introduction sui

After that the sagacious Mr.. Flana-

other platoon, so that he could do his
calling on Monday or Tuesday nights.
Hans did not alter his visiting schd-

little pains to cultivate Hans acQuaint-

was destined to prove costly in the

alarmed by the sudden noise, sprang

hardware sufficient to build 10000
houses in Italy, to be shipped within

Fifty trains of so cars each were
needed to convey the lumber, which
would make six-inch walk from San

was assembled within the Brooklyn

which were at sea within twelve DAYS

dition with Both Birth and
Death.

One of the most curious features in
parsley lore is that the plant Is ira
ditionally connected with both birth
and death. The association with the
former, though familiar enough, is the
more mysterious. All of us have
heard in one form or other the explain
alton given by nurses to inquisitiVe
children as to the appearance of a
new brother or sister: The doctor
Or clergyman-found him or her in
the parsley bed" 1t is possible that
some may see a reference to this
widespread fiction in the Roman folk
story "Filinagrata." But there can be
but little doubt that the origin must
be sought for in some of the oldest
and most universal of primitive be-
liefs, those, namely, which related to
the sympathetic connection between
the fertility of certain forms of plant
race. The subject is, however, at
