verbal reply. Mr.. Manhattan stated
everybody understood that the eight

by the city engineer, be and the same

resolved that the city engineer pre-

Mr.. Pearse reported that the case
of the Susquehanna Coal Company

that testimony was taken last week
and it is expected to argue the case

Mr.. Stanton asked If it would not
be well to have the plans of the pro-

Mr. T/rrian stated the city ongi-

several copies, that of course the

the street commissioner and a set in

engineer the representatives from
the contracting firms would come tc

The mayor: II would like tt
make a suggestion on the PROPOSE
tion of the plans. Inasmuch as there

1t would be well If they were left

what Mr.. Stanton was getting at was

Mr.. Fulton stated his idea was
that the engineer would furnish

missioner and the city hall, but the
original plans he thought should be
under lock and key.
After some little further discussion

was for the clerk to communicate

have him send over another. copy OF

so everyone can handle them or dc
anything they wish to; also copy

THE WoNDERBERRY
OR

HAS Proved "a Great success-ThOu-
sands Say It's the Best Thing
They Ever Grew.
The Wonderberry or Sunberry, tho
marvellous garden fruit originated by
Luther Burbank, and introduced by
John Lewis Childs, the w~ell-known
scotsman of Floral Park, N. Y, has
proved a great success all over the
country. Thousands of people say it
is the best thing they ever grew.
Mr.. John Burroughs, the well-known
author, Naturalist and bosom-friend Of
Theodore Roosevelt, says it is the
most delicious pie berry be ever tasted
and a marvellous cropper.
A Director of the New York Agri-
cultural Experiment Station says it
fruits abundantly even in pure sand.
In the short season Of Northwestern
Canada it is a godsend, and fruit* long
after frost has killed most garden
truck.
D. S.. Hill, Wichita, Kan, says thirty
people grew it there last season with
perfect satisfaction.
X. S. Enochs, Hammond, La, says
it yields $3.50 worth of fruit per acre
with him. Mrs. J. II. Powers, 1872
Kenwood avenue, Chicago, raised
enough berries On a space 4xl0 feet
to supply herself and friends.
j. P. Swallow, Kenton, Ohio, says it's
equal for all purposes does not exist.
Rev. II. B.. Sheldon, Pacific Grove,
Cal, says he likes the berries served
in any and every way.
w. T. Davis, Enon, Va, says it is
true to description in every way, and
fruits in three months from seed.
Judge Morrow, Of u. S. Circuit
Court, says the Wonde.berry is sim
ply delicious raw or cooked.
Mr.. Childs exhibited m plant five
months old bearing 1875 berries
which measured about eight quarts.
Mrs. Hattie Vincent, Hayden, New
Mexico, says it stands long, hard
droughts of that climate and fruits
abundantly all summer.
1t is certainly the most satisfactory
garden fruit and the greatest Novelty
ever introduced.

AuT Wiedersehen,

Until we meet again, that is the meaning
OF the familiar words, that men repeat
At the parting in the street.
Ali yes, till then, but when death inter-
vening
Rends us asunder, with what ceaseless
pain
We wait for the again.
The friends who leave us do not feel the
sorrow
OF parting, as we feel it, who must stay
Lamenting day by day,
And knowing, when we wake upon the
morrow,
We shall not find in the accustomed place
The one beloved face.
1t were a double grief, If the departed,
Being released from earth, should still
retain
A sense of earthly pain;
It were a double grief, If the true-hearted,
Who loved us here, should on the farther
Remember us no more.
Believing, in the midst Of our affections,
That death is a beginning not an end,
We cry to them, and send
Farewells, that better might be called
predictions,
Being foreshadowings of the future,
Into the vast Unknown.
Faith overleaps the confines of our reason,
And If by faith, as in old times was said,
Women received their dead
Raised up to life, then only for a season
Our partings are, nor shall we wait in
vain
Until we meet again.

REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT
BY A CITY IN GERMANY

Breslau is a city of about 5000 900 people
on the Oder river in Silesia, not far from
the coal fields from which Berlin draws
most of it's fuel supply. The Oder river
is a very little stream, nowhere as big as
the Illinois, and at Breslau is so shoal
and narrow that one could toss a biscuit
across and wade after it waist dry. New
ertheless this little river has always been
a busy one, and Breslau has maintained
a wharfmaster and a public unloading
crane since about 1880.
Until about 1896 Breslau was the head
of navigation on the Oder. In that year.
however the Prussian government threw
open an extension by locks and dams
about so miles upstream, to Kesel, where
it installed for public use a very complete
plant for dumping coal from mine-trains
into barges. In a year Breslau saw it's
trade fall away and in five years it had
dropped from 100000 tons of coal to
about 4O0, 900 tons.
Anis was not to be tolerated. How to
stop it2 The officers of the city and of
the m of m held a consul
tation, and called in the railroads to help.
Out of it all grew a plan for a harbor SO

could be dug in the foot Of an island to
be served by two channels, and the rail-
way laid tracks to serve the new harbor.
Beautiful stone-walled slips of ample ca
pacity were dug and walled. unloading
installation was set up. and grain, sugar
and general freight warehouses with rail-
way switches were erected.
The result was remarkable. In a year
the tide of trade came flowing strongly,
and soon instead OF 100000 tons Breslau
was shipping 10000 tons. and her total
trade had increased TO nearly 5000 900
tons. This had not detracted in the least
from Kesel, which continued to advance
so that the river altogether bears now a
traffic of nearly, If not quite 100000 tons
a year.
Every cargo which Is swung I'm on the
cranes or tipped on the coal machine Rays
its proper charge to the ha~rbormaster-
but this charge is so slight that it does
not hinder traffic. Yet it is sufficient to
pay the interest and provide a repayment
fund for the bonds. and in a few years
Breslau will be left with a harbor fur.

a growing trade will return income to the

Mother Niaht,

Eternities before the irst-born day
Or ere the first sun fledged his wings
of flame,
Calm Night, the everlasting and the
same,
A brood,ng mother over chaos lay.
And whirling suns shall blaze and then
decay,
Shall run their, fiery courses and then
claim
The haven Of the darkness whence
they came;
Back to Nirvanic peace shall grope their
way.
So when my feeble sun of life burns out
And sounded is the hour for my long
sleep.
1 shall, full weary of the feverish
light,
Welcome the darkness without fear or
doubt,
And. heavy-lidded, 1 shall softly creep
Into the quiet bosom OF the Night.
