AN URBAN LAY.

A winsome maid with Mobile face
And curling Auburn hair
Roams for B. yonne her native place,
With most Superior air.
Around Little Rock she strays,
Then toward Ann Arbor green;
No Streator alley meets her gaze
What Erie sight is seen?
A charging Buffalo she spies.
For Battle Creek it's jaws;
"South Bend your steps!' farmer cries,
"Get Thayer before you pauseT'
Commandingly young Lawrence spoke,
He Spokane she obeyed;
The beast so Great Falls at his stroke,
Andover it the maid.
"I've Concord" gaily he exclaimed,
Eau Claire, your thanks express"
Augusta Me-" she said, "they name,
So Macon other guess"
She sought to Barre from him her eyes,
Hot Springs a tear in view;
"a husband Fond du Lac" he cries,
"I'm bent on Marion your
"a happy Homestead Pa will give,
Where nothing Mahanoy;
How Joliet will be to live
In Union full of joy"
"In thanks to Providence vow
Well long Revere this day;
And Wheeling up my cart. IN now
Tacoma bride straightway"

GEN. J. P. CILLEY.

The ''Fifty Years Ago" column of the
Lewiston Journal has the following ex-
tract from the issue of that paper of
June 3, 1862: "Major Jonathan P. Cilley,
who was mortally wounded during the
retreat of General Banks, entered the
service as captain in the Maine Cavalry,
recruited in Knox and Walio counties.
He was the son of Hon. Jonathan Cilley,
who was killed in duel in 1885," 1t is
true that Major Cilley was severely
wounded in one of the engagements that
occurred while Stonewall Jackson was
chasing Banks down the Shenandoah Val
ley to the Potomac. His right arm was
shattered and he received other injuries
from which for several days recovery
was deemed impossible. But the wound
was not mortal" as General Cilley,
now enjoying excellent health and still
actively practicing his profession, as
sures us. The newspapers did not get
everything straight so years ago, any
more than they do now.-Rockland

IN SCHOOL-pAYS.

BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.
Still sits the school-house by the road,
A ragged beggar summing;
Around it still the sumachs grow,
And blackberryvin are running.
Within, the masters desk is seen,
Deep SCARED by raps official;
The warping floor, the battered seats,
The jack knife's carved initial;
The charcoal frescos on its walls;
Its doors worn sill, betraying
The feet that, creeping slow to school,
Went storming out to playing!
Long years ago a winter sun
Shone over it at setting;
Lit up its western window panes,
And low caves icy fretting.
1t touched the tangled golden curls,
And brown eyes full of grieving,
Of one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving.
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favor singled;
His cap pulled low upon face
Where pride and shame were mingled.
Pushing with restless feet the snow
To right and left. he fingered;
As restlessly her tiny hands
The blue-c checked apron fingered.

LIFE.

The poets exclamation: 20 Life! feel thee
bounding in my VEINS" is a joyous one. Per-
sons that can rarely or never make it, in
honesty to themselves, are among the most
unfortunate. They do not LIVE, but EXIST; for
TO LIVE implies more than to be. To live is to
be well and strong-to arise feeling equal to
the ordinary duties of the day, and to retire
not overcome by them to feel life bounding
in the veins. A medicine that has made thou
sands of people. men and women, well and
strong, has accomplished great work. bestow-
ing the richest blessings, and that medicine is
Hoods Sarsaparilla. The weak. rundown, or
debilitated, from any cause, should not fail to
take it. 1t builds up the whole system, changes
existence into life. and makes life more abound
ing. We are glad to say these words in its
favor to the readers of our columns.

A HYMN.

The Beautiful Hills of the Blest.
ITO the Tune of "The Home of the Soul."]
oh those hills of the blest, in that beautiful
land,
Their grandeur by faith can see,
With the Saviour we love and the angelic band,
By the shores of that clear crystal sea.
From those hills of the blest in that valley SO
green,
The gates of that city see,
And know there is only few years between
The bright gates of that fair city and me.
Near those hills of the blest overlooking that
sea,
A numberless throng behold,
The saints of ages from land and from sea,
Marching on to that city of gold.
On those hills of the blest from that city so
fair
Comes song, 1--WE shall die nevermore"
There's no sorrow, no death, no graves will be
Rest and home on that immortal shore.
Some day shall stand on those hills of the
blest
With the friends have loved here below.
Some day roam those fields, meath life's tree
shall rest,
Oh, am longing, I'm longing to go.

Telling the Bees.

The custom of "telling the bees is
often referred to by those interested in
curious happenings. In some parts of
England it has always been the habit
to inform the bees whenever there is a
death in the family, particularly when
it is that of the master or mistress.
Some one raps upon the board sup
porting the hives and says: "Mourn
with US; master Tor mistress) Of the
house is dead" 1t is thought that if
this duty is neglected the bees will die
and many old servants are fond of
telling how the bees pine away when
no one thinks to give them the sad
message. Ave Maria.

BewIIdering Statistics.

A German philosopher has estimated
that single grain of wheat produces
so grains, and that these so will each
produce so grains more, and so on.
Thus he finds that the grain would de-
velop in the following way: In the
second year there would be $500
grains; in the third year, 1876, 900
grains; in the sixth year, 10. 625, 900, =
900 grains; in the twelfth year, 244,
t40. 625, 900, GOO grains. The third
years crop would give 300 men one
meal, leaving enough bran to feed
eight pigs for one day. The produce
of a single grain in the twelfth year
would suffice 70 supply the world with
food during lifetime.

Which one was Miss Helen Taft was
the leading question and though the
others were prominent in National az
fairs, Miss Taft was the leading ligh,
of the party. "The young lady dress

the many who gathered at the depot
to see the special party were satisfied
when they knew.
When the train stopped in Devils

group were anxious to see Devils Lake

party got a glimpse of the Great Nor

could stand in the main thorouehfare
and obstruct the view Of Devils Lake
and all Of the nine were anxious to
see more Of it.
W. J. Dutch, district passenger az

that his guests were going too far to

the crowd which blocked the streets
and made traffic impossible. When
the carriage arrived at the hotel the

from the crowd.
Makes Address.
Colonel Roosevelt made a brief ad-
dress which in itself had much signi-
fgance. He sad that he was glad to
be in Chicago with the good people
again, and stated that the people of
the United States little knew Of the
real significance of the Third party
movement. The progresslves will not
stand still he said but will forge to the
front and let the people know of the
corrupt boss and the financial powers
of the man behind who controls the
corrupt boss.
Quen Information.
Colonel Roosevelt charged that the
newspapers had been bought up to
quell information relative to the third
party and all channels of news had
been cut of from the people relative
to the progressive movement, but he
assurd all that the people would soon
know the meaning of it all.
