The Clytie hadn't sailed far when her mast jumped out of its step and Fisher was compelled to withdraw. The hal- yards of the Tam O'Shanter broke about in the middle of the race. She was the last yacht, but was doing noble work •when the accident occurred. The boat had to be hauled out of the contest; It was a pretty race between the othor three yachts. These boats retained their positions from start to finish and t)je captains worked like beavers in their efforts to win the pretty streamer. A ten-mile course was sailed and a good deal of windward sailing was required. The Gertrude A. won, with the Dolphin second and Maygus third. The corrected time of the yachts was as follows : GertrudeA 43m. 40s. Dolphin 46m. 15e. Maygus , . . « m . 44s. Just before the finish line was reached the seam of the spar of the Maygus parted, Jnit the mast remained in posi- tion. The first of the series of three races of the Shrewsbury yacht club was sailed to-day. These races are open only to classes D and E. Class D comprises boats if rom 20 to33 feet.. The prizes are to be awarded to the winners of the most " racos in their class. Class D prize is a silver water pitcher, the prize in class E being a silver cigar box. The yachts in class D were started at 12:15 and they crossed the 1 line in this order : Clinton R. James's Undine, John Wagner's Shrewsbury and George Gillig's Tip Top. Forman Smith had come up from Fair Haven to sail his yacht Irma T., in the race. Mr. Smith met with an accident at the club-house by striking his eye against a gas jet, and tho injury was. eo painful that he was unable to start irftherace. Only two class E yachts started; these " being the Gertrude A.'and Tam O'Shan- ter. The Gertrude A. went over the starting lino first. A fresh and puffy wind blew from the westward, and the yachts carried all sail. The distance was ten miles. The Tam O'Shanter was not rigged for a race and .Captain Fliess entered simply to complete class E. The yacht sailed, to the second stake in Boyd's cove and then withdrew, giving the Gertrude A. a -walkover in the class. The time of the Gertrude A. was 46m.55s. corrected time. The Tip Top withdrew in class D and it was a pretty race between tho Undine and Shrewsbury. Tho Undine won, her corrected time boing lh.17m.Bls. The corrected time of the Shrewsbury was lh.19m.10a. Tho Undine was sailed by her owner and Joseph Smith sailed tho Shrewsbury.

The fair of Arrowsmith Post closed on Saturday night. There.was a bigattend- anco, tho orowd being attracted by-the announcement that the chance contests would be decided. Before the drawings took place a large lot of fancy goods were auctioned off. The drawing began about ten o'clock. In order to satisfy the people that the drawing would be fair and impartial in every respect, Henry C. Terhune selected a committee to conduct it. The com- mittee was composed of Joseph Winter, Andrew R. Coleman, Arthur A. Patter- son, Wm. B. Mount, Samuel Gaunt and Mr. Beyer. The committee folded all the tickets, which were then deposited in a basket and thoroughly mixed up. A little girl Btepped upon the platform and putting her hand into the basket drew therefrom a ticket. The holder of the duplicate of the ticket was the winner of the article chanced for. . The firstarticleputup was a silk cush- ion, which was won by Mrs. T. Quigley. Mrs. William C. Ely of Holmdel and William Curtis of Bed Bank secured handsome pictures. { When the drawings for the bicycles commenced an intense interest was mani- fested. The chance-takers got out their tickets to familiarize themselves with the numbers, and every face wore an anxious look. The gentleman's bicycle was disposed of first. Nola Curtis pulled from the basket ticket No. 419, which corresponded with one bought by Samuel L. Obre of Shrewsbury, a carpenter em- ployed by Borden Brothers. Mr. Obre was highly elated and received the con- gratulations of numerous friends upon his good luck, The other men in the room were appar- ently greatly disappointed, and in a few moments nearly every man had left the place. Ticket No. 298 won the lady's wheel, and by a strange coincidence the ticket's mate was held by another Shrews- bury man who works for Borden Brothers. The other lucky individual was J. H. Rosier, a young colored man. The win- ner was near the platform when the an- nouncement was made, and his good fortune caused his face to be wreathed in,Btniles. As he was leaving the room to go for the bicycle he remarked to a friend near the door: " I told you I'd get the bicycle. I'se a lucky man, for sure." ' Five hundred chances were sold on each wheel at twenty-five cents a chance. On the Singer sewing machine 156 chances were taken and ticket numbered 126 won the useful household article. The winner was John J. Quinn: All the chances on the piano and buggy have not been disposed of. BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS. Three, Streets to be Lighted by Arc Xatnps. The board of commissioners met in specie! session, last JThursday njgh)t, t,o consider the matter of providing better street lighting. Messrs. Harrison and Lane of the electric light company were present to inform the commissioners con- cerning the cost of an improved system. Tho majority of the members were in favor of all-night lamps, and it ia proba- ble that the all-night plan will be adopted. The town is now paying about $3,750 for street lighting. There are at present 98 incandescent electric lamps and 19 gas lamps. The incandescents are burned every night until midnight—except on moonlight nights, when they are not burned at all. These cost the town $18 per year per lamp. The gas lamps are burned all night long for $32.50 each per year. The electric light company will furnish all-night incandescent lamps for $30 each per year. Arc lamps burned all night will cost $100 each, and it will take at least 80 of them to light the town. The commissioners held an informal meeting on Monday night. It is not likely that the arc-light syBtem will be generally adopted for street lighting as the expense would be too great. Eighty arc lamps, run all night, would cost the town $8,000 per year. It is probable that the commissioners will place the arc system on Front, Broad and Mon- mouth Btreets only, and it is thought that twenty lamps will be sufficient to light those thoroughfares. Tho electric light company proposes to put down tall polea at the curbing and run out from tho top of the poles fifteen-foot anna, at the end of which the lamps will be suspended. Tho number of incan- descent lamps on the other streets is to be increased. Tho commissioners will take final ac- tion on tho lighting question next Mon- day night. His Arable Nearly Broken.

BUCKLIN'S .BIG FAC- TORY DESTROYED. ftparit8*from the Chimney Set Fire, to the Hoof—The I.OKH JStstlintitcd at $85,000, ami the Insurance is About Half that, Amount. J. & W. S. Bucklin's preserving fac- tory at the Phalanx was burned to the ground on Saturday afternoon. The loss is estimated at $25,000, and the insurance is about half that amount. The fire originated from sparks from the chim- ney, which set fire to the shingle roof. The fire had gained' Buch headway be- fore it was discovered that, with the strong west wind blowing, it was im- possible to save the building. The factory was built of brick. It was 75x40 feet in size, three stories in height, with a basement under the whole. Attached to the factory were two one- story wooden additions, 60x30 feet and 40x80 feet respectively, and two sheds each 18x80 feet in size. In the buildings were an engine, two boilers of forty and twenty-horse power respectively, a steam pump, a BucMin patent can-filler, machinery and tools used in the canning businesa, 260,000 tin cans to be used in .this year's pack of goods; all the asparagus, peas, cherries and strawberries that had been put up this year, and a moderate stock of last year's pack of goods that had not yet been sold, all of which were destroyed by the fire. The can-filler, which was a $600 maohine, had been moved in only half an hour before the fire was dis- covered. The strong west wind blowing at the time carried sparks three hundred yards to the eastward and set fire to the roof of the cottage of Thomas B. Walling and burned out a spot about six feet square before it was discovered. This fire was put out with a few pails of water. J. & W. S, BucMin commenced on Monday morning to clear away the ruins for the purpose of putting up a new fac- tory with all modern improvements. They have engaged Borden Brothers of Shrewsbury to build the, factory and it will be pushed to completion immedi- ately. The Phalanx is five miles from Red Bank and the road is not the best. The farmers of the Phalanx have volun- teered the use of their teams to get the material on the ground for the new fac- tory. The main building will be 100x50 feet and will be built of corrugated iron. The flooring will be of brick. The boiler and engine house will be 20x43 feet, bnilt of brick, and will have an iron roof. All the mason work will be done by Nissen & Bo3key of Red Bank. FELL INTO THE CELLAR. Sirs. Robert D. Chandler Breaks a Itlb and is Badly -Bruised. Robert D. Chandler is building a new house at Fair Haven for his own occu- pancy. Last Friday afternoon after the carpenters had quit work Mary, his wife, went into the building. On her way out she .was. walkingonthe beams on the first floor. She looked, down into the cellar, and becoming dizzy, fell through the beams and struck on the cellar floor. She was unable to rise and called for her husband, who was on the premises. Mr. Chandler helped her home and i)r. Arm- strong was summoned. The physician found that Mrs. Chandler had broken one cf her left ribs and nearly broken one of her arms. She was also severely bruised. She is improving rapidly and is now able to be about the house. OCEANIC MEN ARRESTED. While in Jail Edward Barnes lleiii'a that lite Mother is Dying.

The men were brought to Red Bank and put in the lock-up. Yes- terday morning Barnes received a tele- gram that his mother was dying and Justice Child released both men upon tho paymont of $5.15 costs.

OAKLAND STREET NOT TO BE '. EXTENDED." the Application Defeated by a'Tie Vote Henry C J, Schrocilcr'a Unntl Valued at a liitfli Fli/tire by Jteal Estate iBxperta. The surveyors of the highway who were appointed by the court to view the proposed new road from Maple avenue to Broad street met at the Globe hotel last Friday morning at ten o'clock. They were Benjamin J. Parker of Shrewsbury; John I. Sickles and Joseph S.Carr of Hiddletown; James Sickles of Atlantic, and Warren D. Brand and Carl Halm of Ocean. The surveyors, after hearing proofs of the sotting up of notices of the meeting, proceeded to view the proposed road. The commencement of the road was at the point of intersection of Oakland street with Maple avenue. Its course was thence eastwardly through the lands of Henry C. J; Schroeder and St. James's Roman Catholic church, ending in Broad street. The center line was at a point where the ditch between the Schroeder and church properties intersects Broad street. The surveyors then returned to the hotel for dinner and to hear the state- ments of parties interested and their counsel. Ex-Senator John S. Applegate represented the applicants for the road, Ex-Senator Henry M. Nevius was counsel for Mr. Schroeder and James E. Degman, a New York lawyer, represented St. James's church. • According to the statements made by land owners before the surveyors, land is very valuable on Broad Btreet at the point of intersection with the proposed road. Mr. Schroeder stated that his property on Broad street was wcrth $100 a lineal foot. Rev. James A. Reynolds believed that the church property was worth as much as Mr. Schroeder'a and he would not value it below $100 per foot. Theodore F. White, an expert witness called in behalf of the land-owners, stated that $100 a lineal foot was a fair valua- tion. On cross-examination Mr. White said that no property there had been sold at that figure, and that a lot of land im- mediately opposite and about 80 feet in width had been sold within the past three months for $1,950, or at the rate of a little over $30 a foot. Tyloe "W. Throck- morton agreed with Mr. White that the land were worth $100 a foot. A vote as to whether the road should hit opened or not was then taken and it resulted in a tie, three of the surveyors favoring the opening and three opposing it, There must be a majority vote of surveyors to open a public road, and the tie vote therefore was equivalent to the defeat of the applicants for the extension of Oakland street. Mr. Sickles of At- lantic, and Messrs. Brand and Hahnof Ocean favored the laying of the road. Surveyor Parker's opposition to the opening of the road was based on the ground that it was on improvement and a benefit to Red Bank for •which Shrewsbury township would have to_ pay, whereas in his, judgement the town of Red Bank ought to pay for it. He also said that he had had a conversation with Chief Commissioner Curtis in refer- ence to the matter and that Mr. Curtis informed him that under the act of the legislature passed in 1891 the town com- missioners had authority to open and lay out new roadB and streets, and that being BO, he could see no reason why the town of Red Bank should not lay the road and pay the expense of it. Under the law the surveyors cannot be called out again within a year to con- sider the opening of the road. LOST HER SUIT. 3Irs. Emma Patterson Acted as Her Own Lawyer. A case was tried in the Chancery chambers at Jersey City in which Mrs. Emma Patterson of Asbury Park ap- peared as her own lawyer. She is the wife of Frank Patterson, formerly df Asbury Park, but now of Maryland. Suit wa3 brought by Edward.Spaeth of Newark, who claimed to hold a mortgage of $2,000 on Mrs. Patterson's property at Asbury Park, which he said "had been transferred to him by L. J. Lyons, who in turn had received it from Col. A, Jttdson Clark. The latter was identified with Frank Patterson in building an opera house at Asbury Park. Vice-Chancellor Green decided in favor of Mr, Spaeth. There is a first mortgage of $2,500 on the property held by Red Bank parties. Festival at Ocoanport.

A dance for the friends of her daugh- ter, Miss Marguerite itcClure, was given last Saturday night by Mrs. David Mc- Clureat her residence at "Pomt Breeze," in East Red Bank. The house and grounds were handsomely' decorated with Chinese lanterns, flags and tropical plants. A marquee was erected, which, together with the extensive piazzas, fur- nished ample opportunity for dancing: A large number of ladies and gentlemen were present from New York, Long Island, Seabright, Long Branch and Elberon. Dancing commenced at eight o'clock and continued until eleven o'clock, at which time supper was served. Allstrom furnished the music and Iauch was the caterer.

Donated to the Public Idbrarv to be Disposed of by Chance. LaBt week Mrs. Wm. A. French pre- sented to the executive committee of the public library a silk quilt to be disposed of in any manner agreed upon by the committee, the proceeds to be used to buy new books for the library, The quilt is a very elegant piece of work and has been valued at one hundred dollars. It is of " crazy" design, very elaborately embroidered, with a border of plush and lace. It is a glorious combination of colors and is well worth the. inspection of those interested in fancy work of this kind, not to mention the cause to which it has been donated. At a meeting of the executive committee on -Monday it was decided to dispose of the quilt by chances, this being the most popular method at present for making money for charitable purposes. Each member of the board will have It in her possession for a stated time to exhibit to her friends, and to collect as many chances as possi- ble. It may be seen at present at Mrs. French's on Monmouth street, where all are invited to call and see it and take as many chances as they like. A Successful Lawn Party. "The Sawn party held at Joseph-Wood's on Front street last Thursday night was a very successful affair. It was given by the ladies' aid society of the First Methodist church.

He has forty pairs at home and from time to time takes one out for a trial. The other day he released one from Bailey's shops at Midway Green and from the record taken when it reached home it was found that it had taken the bird nine minutes. In a race between the same bird and one belonging to W. B. Willis of Keansburg from Sea Girt to their respective coops, Mr. Lisk's bird covered the distance in twenty minutes and won the race.

CLOSE ""OF" THE FAIE.

The Micyeles no to Shrewsbury anilthe Beivinu Machine to Mr. fiuititi.The fair of Arrowsmith Post closed on

Saturday night. There.was a bigattend-anco, tho orowd being attracted by-theannouncement that the chance contestswould be decided. Before the drawingstook place a large lot of fancy goodswere auctioned off.

The drawing began about ten o'clock.In order to satisfy the people that thedrawing would be fair and impartial inevery respect, Henry C. Terhune selecteda committee to conduct it. The com-mittee was composed of Joseph Winter,Andrew R. Coleman, Arthur A. Patter-son, Wm. B. Mount, Samuel Gaunt andMr. Beyer.

The committee folded all the tickets,which were then deposited in a basketand thoroughly mixed up. A little girlBtepped upon the platform and puttingher hand into the basket drew therefroma ticket. The holder of the duplicate ofthe ticket was the winner of the articlechanced for. .

The firstarticleputup was a silk cush-ion, which was won by Mrs. T. Quigley.Mrs. William C. Ely of Holmdel andWilliam Curtis of Bed Bank securedhandsome pictures. {

When the drawings for the bicyclescommenced an intense interest was mani-fested. The chance-takers got out theirtickets to familiarize themselves withthe numbers, and every face wore ananxious look. The gentleman's bicyclewas disposed of first. Nola Curtis pulledfrom the basket ticket No. 419, whichcorresponded with one bought by SamuelL. Obre of Shrewsbury, a carpenter em-ployed by Borden Brothers. Mr. Obrewas highly elated and received the con-gratulations of numerous friends uponhis good luck,

The other men in the room were appar-ently greatly disappointed, and in a fewmoments nearly every man had left theplace. Ticket No. 298 won the lady'swheel, and by a strange coincidence theticket's mate was held by another Shrews-bury man who works for Borden Brothers.The other lucky individual was J. H.Rosier, a young colored man. The win-ner was near the platform when the an-nouncement was made, and his goodfortune caused his face to be wreathedin,Btniles. As he was leaving the roomto go for the bicycle he remarked to afriend near the door:

" I told you I'd get the bicycle. I'sea lucky man, for sure."' Five hundred chances were sold oneach wheel at twenty-five cents a chance.

On the Singer sewing machine 156chances were taken and ticket numbered126 won the useful household article.The winner was John J. Quinn:

All the chances on the piano and buggyhave not been disposed of.

BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS.

Three, Streets to be Lighted by ArcXatnps.

The board of commissioners met inspecie! session, last JThursday njgh)t, t,oconsider the matter of providing betterstreet lighting. Messrs. Harrison andLane of the electric light company werepresent to inform the commissioners con-cerning the cost of an improved system.Tho majority of the members were infavor of all-night lamps, and it ia proba-ble that the all-night plan will be adopted.

The town is now paying about $3,750for street lighting. There are at present98 incandescent electric lamps and 19 gaslamps. The incandescents are burnedevery night until midnight—except onmoonlight nights, when they are notburned at all. These cost the town $18per year per lamp. The gas lamps areburned all night long for $32.50 each peryear. The electric light company willfurnish all-night incandescent lamps for$30 each per year. Arc lamps burnedall night will cost $100 each, and it willtake at least 80 of them to light the town.

The commissioners held an informalmeeting on Monday night. It is notlikely that the arc-light syBtem will begenerally adopted for street lighting asthe expense would be too great. Eightyarc lamps, run all night, would cost thetown $8,000 per year. It is probablethat the commissioners will place thearc system on Front, Broad and Mon-mouth Btreets only, and it is thoughtthat twenty lamps will be sufficient tolight those thoroughfares. Tho electriclight company proposes to put downtall polea at the curbing and run outfrom tho top of the poles fifteen-footanna, at the end of which the lamps willbe suspended. Tho number of incan-descent lamps on the other streets is tobe increased.

Tho commissioners will take final ac-tion on tho lighting question next Mon-day night.

FIRE AT THE PHALANXJ. & W. 3 . BUCKLIN'S .BIG FAC-

TORY DESTROYED.

ftparit8*from the Chimney Set Fire,to the Hoof—The I.OKH JStstlintitcdat $85,000, ami the Insuranceis About Half that, Amount.J. & W. S. Bucklin's preserving fac-

tory at the Phalanx was burned to theground on Saturday afternoon. The lossis estimated at $25,000, and the insuranceis about half that amount. The fireoriginated from sparks from the chim-ney, which set fire to the shingle roof.The fire had gained' Buch headway be-fore it was discovered that, with thestrong west wind blowing, it was im-possible to save the building.

The factory was built of brick. Itwas 75x40 feet in size, three stories inheight, with a basement under the whole.Attached to the factory were two one-story wooden additions, 60x30 feet and40x80 feet respectively, and two shedseach 18x80 feet in size.

In the buildings were an engine, twoboilers of forty and twenty-horse powerrespectively, a steam pump, a BucMinpatent can-filler, machinery and toolsused in the canning businesa, 260,000 tincans to be used in .this year's pack ofgoods; all the asparagus, peas, cherriesand strawberries that had been put upthis year, and a moderate stock of lastyear's pack of goods that had not yetbeen sold, all of which were destroyedby the fire. The can-filler, which was a$600 maohine, had been moved in onlyhalf an hour before the fire was dis-covered.

The strong west wind blowing at thetime carried sparks three hundred yardsto the eastward and set fire to the roofof the cottage of Thomas B. Walling andburned out a spot about six feet squarebefore it was discovered. This fire wasput out with a few pails of water.

J. & W. S, BucMin commenced onMonday morning to clear away the ruinsfor the purpose of putting up a new fac-tory with all modern improvements.They have engaged Borden Brothers ofShrewsbury to build the, factory and itwill be pushed to completion immedi-ately. The Phalanx is five miles fromRed Bank and the road is not the best.The farmers of the Phalanx have volun-teered the use of their teams to get thematerial on the ground for the new fac-tory. The main building will be 100x50feet and will be built of corrugated iron.The flooring will be of brick. The boilerand engine house will be 20x43 feet,bnilt of brick, and will have an ironroof. All the mason work will be doneby Nissen & Bo3key of Red Bank.

RED BANK HELD BACK.OAKLAND STREET NOT TO BE

'. EXTENDED."

the Application Defeated by a'TieVote Henry C J, Schrocilcr'a

• Unntl Valued at a liitfli Fli/tireby Jteal Estate iBxperta.The surveyors of the highway who

were appointed by the court to view theproposed new road from Maple avenueto Broad street met at the Globe hotellast Friday morning at ten o'clock. Theywere Benjamin J. Parker of Shrewsbury;John I. Sickles and Joseph S.Carr ofHiddletown; James Sickles of Atlantic,and Warren D. Brand and Carl Halm ofOcean.

The surveyors, after hearing proofs ofthe sotting up of notices of the meeting,proceeded to view the proposed road.The commencement of the road was atthe point of intersection of Oakland streetwith Maple avenue. Its course wasthence eastwardly through the lands ofHenry C. J; Schroeder and St. James'sRoman Catholic church, ending in Broadstreet. The center line was at a pointwhere the ditch between the Schroederand church properties intersects Broadstreet.

The surveyors then returned to thehotel for dinner and to hear the state-ments of parties interested and theircounsel. Ex-Senator John S. Applegaterepresented the applicants for the road,Ex-Senator Henry M. Nevius was counselfor Mr. Schroeder and James E. Degman,a New York lawyer, represented St.James's church. •

According to the statements made byland owners before the surveyors, land isvery valuable on Broad Btreet at thepoint of intersection with the proposedroad. Mr. Schroeder stated that hisproperty on Broad street was wcrth $100a lineal foot. Rev. James A. Reynoldsbelieved that the church property wasworth as much as Mr. Schroeder'a andhe would not value it below $100 per foot.Theodore F. White, an expert witnesscalled in behalf of the land-owners, statedthat $100 a lineal foot was a fair valua-tion. On cross-examination Mr. Whitesaid that no property there had been soldat that figure, and that a lot of land im-mediately opposite and about 80 feet inwidth had been sold within the pastthree months for $1,950, or at the rate ofa little over $30 a foot. Tyloe "W. Throck-morton agreed with Mr. White that theland were worth $100 a foot.

A vote as to whether the road shouldhit opened or not was then taken and itresulted in a tie, three of the surveyorsfavoring the opening and three opposingit, There must be a majority vote ofsurveyors to open a public road, and thetie vote therefore was equivalent to thedefeat of the applicants for the extensionof Oakland street. Mr. Sickles of At-lantic, and Messrs. Brand and HahnofOcean favored the laying of the road.

Surveyor Parker's opposition to theopening of the road was based on theground that it was on improvement anda benefit to Red Bank for •whichShrewsbury township would have to_pay, whereas in his, judgement the townof Red Bank ought to pay for it. Healso said that he had had a conversationwith Chief Commissioner Curtis in refer-ence to the matter and that Mr. Curtisinformed him that under the act of thelegislature passed in 1891 the town com-missioners had authority to open andlay out new roadB and streets, and thatbeing BO, he could see no reason whythe town of Red Bank should not lay theroad and pay the expense of it.

Under the law the surveyors cannotbe called out again within a year to con-sider the opening of the road.

: The Value of Real Estate.It is to be regretted that the applica-

tion f*)r the extension of Oakland streetto Broad street was defeated by a tievote in the board of surveyors. If thestreet had been extended from Mapleavenue to Broad street it would havemade a thoroughfare from Broad streetto Shrewsbury avenue and would havebeen a convenience to a great manypeople in going to the railway station onMonmouth street and to the' railwayfreight station on Pearl street. In mak-ing travel to the public easy it wouldhave benefited the town, and in openingup the Sehroeder property it would havebeen a distinct gain to, Henry C. J.Sehroeder if he should ever decide tosell his land off in building lots.

If the surveyors had decided to openthe street it would have been only fairto Mr, Schroeder to have awarded himthe value of the land taken—that is, itsmarket value — not the preposterouslyhigh value which Messrs. White andThroekmorton placed upon it. Of courseMessrs. White and Throokmorton do notreally believe that the land is worth any-thing near what they said it was worth—they wore merely testifying as realestate experts. By their testimony theyinfluenced the surveyors not to open thestreet on account of the great cost to thetownBhip, This pleased Mr. Schroeder.It also injured the town in retarding itsgrowth.

It' ex-Mayor James (Seen of Eaton-td%j Bucccijdflin"|:nockfiigiout Monmouth,Parkl he wilrfB fairly entitled to hispick of the county offices this fall. Steenhas brains .und, he doesn't drink rum.He is a bitter fighter and the Democraticparty should rally jiround him to a man.If Mr. Steen wants real power he shouldeleqt to Jim for sheriff; if he loves,money the county clerkship with itsemoluments is what he should strive for;if glory is what he is pining for the sen-atorship will give him a chance to winfame in the legislative halls at Trenton.After Stem has made liis choice, Johu E.Lanning and Jainea S. Yard can pullstraws as to which shall have first choiceof the two remaining offices,

HIS TOE CRUSHED.

A Successful Operation Performedby Jtcil Bank Doctors.

John Sonn, a barber by trade, and whoworked on Joseph Stilwell's place atShrewsbury, had the great toe of his leftfoot crushed last March by a horse step-ping upon, it. The wound was slow toheal and Sonn suffered great pain.Theodore Neilsen of Red Bank took pityon the man and invited him to his house.Sonn accepted the kind invitation andhas been living with Mr. Neilsen for sev-eral weeks. Recently it was discoveredthat one of the bones in Sonn's toe wasdiseased and there was danger of gan-grene setting in. Yesterday Dr. GeorgeF. Marsden performed an operation, as-sisted by Doctors J. E. Sayre and R. F.Borden. It was at first thought that thetoe would have to be amputated, but thedisease had not progressed sufficiently towarrant it. Some of the pieces of thebone were removed, and the operationwas very successful. Sonn is 48 yearsold and is a native of France. He is awidower and has a daughter living inNew York state.

His business interests in th<? W^stthrived and later he located in Hftrrjsrburg, Pa., where he is doing a;succesafulbusiness. Recently he resolved w lookhis daughter up and went to Keyportlast week with that, object in view.

A few years after Dennis disappeared,his wife, who had abandoned onie'hus-band and been abandoned by another,took to herself a third husband namedJohn Jones, and has ever since livednear Union, in Raritan township. Shehas several children by JoneB. Her old-est daughter, who is known as KittieJones, had Been employed -ht a menialcapacity by several families in thatvicinity and is now working as aServantfor Capt.

HOW BTOWT BROUGHT COOBLUCK.

It was midsummer's day, that delight-ful point toward which the whole yearclimbs and from which it slips off likean ebbing wave in the direction of thedistant winter. No wonder that super-stitious people in old times gave this dayto the fairies, for it is the most beautifulday of all. The world seems full of birdsongs, sunshine, and flower-smells; thenstorm and sorrow appear impossiblethings ; the barest and ugliest spot takeson a brief charm and, for the moment,seems lovely and desirable.

" That's a picturesque old place," saida lady on the back seat of the big wagonin which Hiram £wift was taking liissummer boarders to drive.

They wore passing a low, wide farm-house, gray from want of paint, with a

, shabby l>arn and sheds attached, all over-arched by tall elniB. The narrow hay-field and the vegetable patch ended in arocky hillside, with its steep ledges over-grown and topped with tall pineaandftrs, which mnxle a dense, gre,en back-ground to the old buildings.

" I don't knpw about it's bein' like apicter," said Hirani drylyVas ha flickeda fly from the shoulder ot his.oif horse;" but it isn't much by way of a farm.That bit of hay-field in about all the landthere is that's worth anything; the restis all rock. I guess the Widow Galedoesn't talte jmuch comfort in its bein'picturesque. She'd be glad enough tohave the lnnd iniide flat if she could."

"Oh, is that the Gale farm where thesilver-mine is said to be ?"

" Yea, marm; at least it's the farmwhere the man lived that, 'cordin' towhat folks say, said he'd found a silver-mine. I don't take a great deal of stoclin the story myself."

"A silver-mine ! That sounds interest-ing," said a pretty girl on tffe front seat,who luul been driving the horses half theway, aided and abe.tted by Hiram, wit!whom she was a prime favorite. "Telme about it, Mr. Swift. Is it a storyWhen did it all happen r"

"Well, I don't know as it over Alhappen," responded the farmer cautious-ly; "all I know for certain is that myfather used to tell a story that, long be-fore I was born- nigh on to sixty yeanago that must have been—Squire AsjAllen that used to live up to that rethouse oil North street—where you boughtthe crookery mug, you know, Miss Rosi—come up one any in a great hurry tccatch the stage, with a lump of rock tie'ein his handkerchief. Old Roger Gahhad found it, he said, and they thoughtit was silver ore; and the squire wasa-takin' it down to New Huveu to get itanalyzed. My father ho saw, the rock,but lie didn't think much of it from thlooksv Ji}l, Jlie,.,.e.pire g()t .l}QP,k.,te!utay.afterward and said the New Haven professor pronounced it silver, sure enoughand a rich specimen ; and any man wh<owned a mine of it had his fortune madehe said. Then of course tho townshi]got excited, and everybody talked silverand there was a great to-do."

"And why didn't they go to work 01the mine at once ?" asked the prett;girl.

" Well, you see, unfortunately, no oniknew where it was, and old Roger Galhad taken that particular day of alothers to fall off his hay-riggin' anbreak his neck, and he hadn't happeneito mention to anyone before doingwhere he found the rock. He wasclose-mouthed old chap, Roger was. Foten years after that, folks that hadn'anything else to do went about huntinjfor the silver-mine, bnt they gradooall;got tired, and now it's nothin' more thaan old story. Does to amuse boarderEwith in the summer," concluded MrSwift with a twinkle, " For my part,don't believe there ever was a mine."

" But there was tho piece of oreprove it."

" Oh, that don't prove anything, because it got lost. No one knows whabecame of, it, and sixty years is lonjenough for a story to get exaggerated in.

" I don't see why there shouldn't bsilver in Beulah township," remarked tinlady on tho back seat. " You have alkinds of other minerals here—soapstonemica, emery, tourmalines and beryls.'

"Well, ma'am, I don't see nutlier,unless mebbo it's tho Lord's will thershouldn't be."

"It would be so interesting if the mincould bo found," said the pretty girl.

" I t would be so, especially to the Galifamily, that is,-if it wne found on theiiland. Tho widow's a smart, capablewoman, but it'a aa much as she can doturn and twist how she may, to mainboth ends meet. And there's that bo;of hers," a likely boy aa over you see, anjust hungry for book-1'nrnin', the minis-ter snys. The cbanoo of an oddicatiowould be just everything to him, antho widow can't givo him one."

"It 's really a romance," said theprclt;girl carelessly, the wants and craving"of othors slipping off her young iiyuiputhii'B easily.

Then tho horaoa reached the top 61 tinlong hill tlisy hml been climbing, Ilirunput on tlio brake, mid they began togrind down a hill equally long, with isoft panorama of plump tree-clad sumtnita befoiu Ilium, nlihnmoi%j in theJuno sunshine. Drives in Beulali town-slap wero apt to bo rather perpendicular,however you took them.

Somo one, high up on the hill behindthe furm-hoiiBO, Heard tho clonk of tinbrakes and hold up her head to lwtenIt wins Hester Gjile—a brown little girwith quick, dnrlc eyen, mid a mono <tfcurly ohMtjjiife' hnir only toft apt to g<

. „ tangles. She was just eight yearsold, and to her the old farmstead, whichthe neighbors scorned as worthless, wasa sort of enchanted land, full of delightsnd surprises—hiding-places which nome but herself knew, rocks and tMckete

where she waa sure real fairies dwelt,and cubby-houses sacred to the use of" Bunny, who was her sole playmateand companion and the confidant towhom ehe told all her plans and secrets.

Bunny was a doll—an old-fashionedloll, carved out of a solid piece of hick-iry wood, with a stern expression of faceind a perfectly unyielding figure, but a

doll whom Hester loved above all things.Jler mother and her mother's mother hadplayed with Bunny, but this only, madetier dearer.

The two Rat together between thegnarled roots of an old spru«3 whichgrew near the edge of o steep little cliff,ft was one of the loneliest parts of therocky hillside, and the hardest to get at.Hester liked it better than any of herother hiding-places because no one butlierself ever came there.

Bunny lay in her lap, and Hester wasin'the middle of a story, when she stoppedto listen to the wagon grinding down hill.

"So the little chicken said 'PeepI'eep I' and started off to see what theig yellow fox was like," she went on.

"That was a silly thing for her to do,wasn't it, Bunny 'I because foxes aren't abit nice to chickens. But the littleihicken didn't know any better, and shewouldn't listen t° the old hens whenthey told her how foolish she was. Thatwaa wrong, because it's naughty to dis—dis—apute your elders, mother says;children that do are almost always sorryaftetward.

" Well, she hadn't gone far before sheheard a rustle in the bushes on one side.She thought it was the fox, and then shedid feel frightened, you'd better believe,and all the things she meant to say tohim went straight out of her head. Butit wasn't the fox that t ime: it wasteeny-weeny little striped aquirrol, andlie just said: 'It 's a sightly day, isn'ti t? ' and, without waiting for an answer,ran up a tree. So the chicken didn'tmind him a bit.

" Then, by and by, when she had gone„ long way farther off from home, sheheard another rustle. It was just like—ih, what's that, Bunny?"

Hester stopped short, and I am sorryto say that Bunny never heard the endof the chicken story, for the rustle re-solved itself into—what do you think 1

It was a fox I A real fox.There he stood on the hillside, gazing

straight at HeBter, with his yellow brushwaving behind him, and his eyes lookingas sharp as the row of gleaming teethbeneath them. Foxes were rare animalsin the Beulah region; Hester had neverseen one before ; but she had seen thepicture of a fox in one of Roger's books,so she knew what it was. The fox st;ire(at her, and she stared back at the foxThen her heart melted with fear, like theheart of the little chicken, and shejumped toher feet, forgetting Bunny, whofell from her lap and rolled unobservedover the edge of the cliff. The suddenmovement startled the fox, land he disap-peared into the bushes with a wave ofhis yellow brush. Just how or where hiwent, Hester could not have told.

"How sorry Roger will be that hiwasn't here to see him," was her firstthought. Her second was for Bunny,She turned and stooped to pick up th1

doll—and lo! Bunny was not there.High and low she searched, benenth

grass tangles, under "'juniper saucers,'among the sterna of the thickly masseiblueberries and hardbacks, but nowherewas Bunny to be suen. She peered overthe ledge, but nothing met her eyes be.low but a thick growth of blackish,stunted evergreens. Tlve place "downbelow" had been a sort of terror to Hes-ter's imagination always, as an entirelyunknown and unexplored region; butin the cause of the beloved Bunny sluwas prepared to risk anything, and sinbravely made ready to plunge into thdepths.

It was not so easy to plunge, however.The clilf was eight to ton feet in lieighlwhere she stood, and ran for n.onnKiderable distance to right und left withouigetting lower. This way and that sluquested, and at last found a crevici..where it(was-possible-to scramble tlow—a steep little crevice, full of blackberrbriers, which scratched her face antore her frock. When at last she guinethe lower bank, this further diliicultipresented itself: she could not tell wherishe was. The evergreen thicket meover her head, the branches got into lieieyes and buffeted and bewildered her.She could not make out the place whoreshe had been sitting, and no signs of itcould be found. At last, breathless witlexertion, tired, hot and hopeless, shmade her way out of the thicket, anwent, crying, home to her mother.

She was still crying and refusing to bicomforted, when Roger came in fronmilking. He was sorry for Plester, bunot so sorry as he would have been hahis mind not been full of troubles of hiown. He tried to console her withvague promise of helping her to look foBunny " some day when there wasn't BCmuch to do." But this was cold comfort, and in the end Hester went to beheartbroken, to sob herself to sleep.

" Mother," said Roger, after slio hagone, " Jim Boies is going to bis uncle'in New Ipswich in September to dchores and help round a little, and to g<all winter to tho academy."

The Now Ispwieh academy was tmit<a famous school then, and to go thenwas a great chance for a studious boy,

" That's a bit of good luck for Jim."" Yes; first-rate."" Not quite so first-rate for you."" No" (gloomily). " I shall niisa Jiir

He's always been my best friend amonthe boys. But what makes me mad ithat he doesn't care a bit about goingMother, why doesn't good luck over com<to us Gales?"

" It was good luck for me when yo1

"I 'd be worth a great deal morot<yon if I could got a chance at any aorof schooling. Doesn't it seem hardmother?

No, not yet."Go and do it, then, right away.

You'll have to carry them down earlywith the eggs. Four pairs", -Roger,thickens are the best crop we can raisein thie farm." '

" If we could find Great-uncle Roger'smine, we'd eat the chickens ourselves,"saidBoger,au he reluctantly turned to

"Yes , and if tha t apple tree 'd.take tobearing gold opplca wo wou lda ' t have towork a t all. Hur ry and do y o u r choresbefore dark, Roger.' ' • ;•:

Mrs. Gale waa a Spartan i n n e r methods,but, for all that, she sighed a bitter sighas Roger went ou t of the door.- ;

" H e ' s such a smart boy," she told her-self, "There ' s nothing he couldn' t d o -nothing, if he had a chance. I do callit hard. The folks who have p'lejity ofmoney to do with have dull b o y s ; an4 I,who've got a bright one, can ' t do any-thing for him I I t seems as if thingsweren't justly arranged." |

Hester spent all her spare t ime duringthe nex t week in searching for t h e lostBunny. I t rained hard one day and allthe following n igh t ; she could no t sleepfor fear tha t Bunny was gett ing wet,and looked so pale in the morning thather mother forbade her going to the hill.

" Y o u r feet were sopping when youjame in yesterday," she said ; and that 'sthe second apron you've torn. You'lllust have to let Bunny go, Hes ter ; noiwo ways about it ."

Then Hester moped and grieved andgrew thin, and a t last she fell ill. I t waslow fever, the doctor said. Several dayswent by, and she was no better . Onenoon, Roger came in from haying to findhis mother with her eyes looking verymuch troubled. ' ' Hester is light-headed,she sa id: " w e mus t have t h e doctoragain."

Roger went in to look a t the child; whowas lying ih a little bedroom off thekitchen. The small, flushed face on thepillow did not light up a t his approach.On the contrary, Hester 's eyes, whichwere unnatural ly big and bright, lookedpast and beyond him.

' ' Hessie, dear, don' t you know Rogen?"" H e said he 'd find Bunny for ine

some day," muttered the. ' l i t t le voice;" but he never did. Oh, I wish he would!—I wish he would I I do wan t her somuch." Then she rambled on aboutfoxes, and the old spruce-tree^and therocks ; always with the refrain, " I wishI had Bunny ; I want her so much 1"

" Mother, I do believe it's t ha t wretchedold doll Bhe's fretted herself sick over,"said Roger, going back into the kitchen." Now, I'll tell you what . Mr. Hinsdale'sgoing up to the town this noon, and he'llleave word for the doctor to come ; andtho minute I've swallowed my dinner,I 'm going up to the hill to find Bunny.I don't believe Hessie '11 get any bettertill she's found."

" Very weli," said Mrs, Gale. " I sup-pose the bay '11 be spoiled, but we've gotto get Heseio cured a t any price."

" Oh, I'll find, the doll. I know aboutwhere Hessie was when she lost it. Andthe hay'11 take no harm, I only got aquarter of the field cut, and it's gooddrying weather."

Roger made haste with his dinner.His conscience pricked him as he remem-bered his neglected promise arid his in-difference to Hester 's griefs ; he felt inhaste to make amends. He went straightto the old spruce which, he bad gatheredfrom Hester's rambling speech, was thescene of Bunny's disappearance. I t waseasily found, being the oldest and largeston the hillside.

Roger had brought a stout stick withhim, and now, leaning over the cliff edge,he tried to poke with it in the branchesbelow, while searching for the dolly.But the stick was not long enough, andslipped through his fingers, disappearingsuddenly and completely through thievergreens..

" H a l l o ! " cried Roger. " T h e r e mustbe a hole there of some sort. Bunny's a tthe bottom of it, no doubt. Here goes

•to findher!» ' - •-•»-•His longer legs made easy work of the

steep descent which hud so puzzled h islittle sister. Presently he stood, waist-deep, in tangled hemlock boughs, belowthe old spruce. He parted the bushes i nadvance and moved cautiously forward,step by step. He felt a cavity jus t beforehim, but the thicket was so dense thathe could nee nothing.

Feeling for his pocket-knife, whichluckily was a stout one, ho stood still,cutting, slashing, and breaking off thetough houghs, and throwing them on onesido. It was hard work, but after tenminutes a space was cleared which let inii ray of light, and, with a hot, red faceand surprised eyes, Roger Gale stoopedover the edge of a rocky cavity on thisides of which something glittered an!shone. He swung himself over the edband dropped into the hole, which was1

but a few feot deep. His foot struck onsomething hard as he landed. He stoopedto pick it up, and his hand encountereda soft substance. He lifted both objectsout together.

The soft substance was a doll's woolenfrock. There, indeed, was theBunny, looking no whit the worse forher adventures, and the hard tiling onwhich her wooden head had lain was apick-ax—an old iron picjc, red with mat.Three letters were rudely cut on thrhandle—R. P. G. They wore Roger'i_own initials, Roger Perkins Gale. It hadbeen his father's name also, and that ofthe great-uncle after whom they bothwere named.

With an excited cry, Roger stoopedagain and lifted out of the liolo a lumpol quartz mingled with ore. Suddenl;ho realized where ho was and what hhad found. This was the long lost silve.mine whose finding and whose disappear-ing had for BO many yeara been a tradi-tion in the township. Here it was thaiold Roger Gale had found his " speci-niont," knocked off probably with thatvery pick, and, covering up all traces'ofhis discovery, bad gone sturdily oft tohia farm work, to meet hia death nextday on tho hay-rigging, with the secrolocked within hia brcnat. For sixty yenratho evergreon thicket had grown andtoughoned and guarded the hidden cavitybeneath ito roots; and it might easilyhave dono no for sixty yeara longer ifBunny, littlo wooden Bunny, with herlack-luster eyes and oxprensionleus featurea, had not led the way into Itn tanglefl. ' >;

Hester got well. When Roger plnmi'tho doll in her arms, BIIO uoenied to cometo hernelf, fondled and kissed her, andpresently dropped into a antiollcd sloopfrom which slio awolco conscious and reliovi'd. Tho "niino"did not prove ex.actly u mine— it wan not deep or widienough for that—but tho ore in it vvairich in .quality,.and MM newa of HB ibiding innuo a treat' stir In ,f.he'neighbor-hood, Mrs. Hole v/tvi offered o prico for

er hillside which made her -what sheconsidered a rich woman, and she waawise enough to close with the offer atonce, and neither stand out for highererms nor risk the chance of mining on,er own account. She and her familyeft the /quiet little farmhouse soon afterhat, and went to live in Worcester.

Roger had all the schooling he desired,and made ready for Harvard and thelaw school, where he-worked hard, andlaid the foundation of what has sinceproved a brilliant career* You may belure that Bunny went to "Worcester also,treated and regarded as one of the mostvalued members of the family. Hestertook great care of her, and so did Heater'sittle girl later on; and even Mrs. Gale

spoke respectfully of her always; andtreated her with honor. For was it notBunny who broke the long spell of evilfate, and brought good luck back to the~ale family? '

There arc many sorts of courage whichboth men and women would be betterwithout, but, unfortunately, are not.There is the courage of impudence. Itabounds to-day. It is all the fashion. Ifyou want a thing and can not get it inany other way, try impudence—that is arecipe which fs constantly being givenin the papers.

Then there is the courage of ignorance.Not long ago I was in a room in which

• there was an eminent pianist. He playedas, BO far-as 1 know, he alone can .play,one of Chopin's masterpieces—doweringhis finger tips with the eloquence ofmany voices. Directly he had finishedthe lady of the house went Bailing up to

.him. "Thank you so much I Youshould hear my little girl—I do so wantyou to tell me what you think of her.For so small a child—not yet learnedmusic two years—we think she's wonder-ful."

Before the astonished virtuoso, whoseknowledge of English is not profound,could get a word in edgeways, there wasa small child about nine years of ageplanted on the music stool with " YeBanks and Braes," with variations,opened out in front of her.

In a self-sufficient little nonentity, whohad " not yet learned musio two years,"and who, naturally, had no music in her,the performance was excusable, and itwould be too much to q&y that suddendeath would have been its only adequatereward—but ip the presence of thatfamed musician! I do not know whathe Buffered. I know what we felt.

How the Pelican Tools: a Bath.The pelican is a funny looking bird.

Hia wings are very strong, and under hislower bill he carries a queer kind of apouch, which he finds very useful whenlie goes p'h1 a fishing excursion. His up-per bill is provided with a strong hook,and this is all the fishing-tackle he rorquires, and there is no necessity of hiscarrying any other bait. He generallycatches enough fish at one haul to lasthim for some time, and t ie supply is ashandy as if he had a market in the house.

It would have made a whole schopl offishes laugh uproariously to have seenthe pelican. take a bath in the pool pro-vided for him and some feathered com-panions at the Central Park, New York.Such a dirty bird as he was! Youwouldn't imagine he had taken a bathfora month at least. One bright Oc-tober day the pelican made up his mindthat what he needed most was a goodwashing, so he waddled along to thebath-tub provided for him, and paddledand splashed until he was thproughlywet, and there was as much water outside the tank as there was inside.

When you come out of the bath, yougenerally fly for a towel. So did thepelican. The air was his towel, and heflew around at such a rate, with hiswings extended, that all the other birdsgot out of his way as soon as possible.

Then you would have laughed to haveseen him dress himself, all the whilekeeping his wing's stretched, so that eachtiny feather might dry, as our clothesdry on a clothes-line. Then with hisfunny bill he went to work as a latin*dress does with her iron, and smoothedevery feather, one at a time, down hisbreast.

O what a brilliant success he wasmaking out of the pelican laundry!Why, you wouldn't have known thebird. Instead of a great, dirty, dingy-looking biped, here was a web-footedwaj^r-fowl in magnificent white plum-age, worthy to associate with swans, andcasting into the shade all his dull-col-ored companions.

Tin* May &ad til*(From Barptr's Weekly.)

The fond parent "who objeeta to hisboys becoming acquainted with thewater ia disappearing. At least we donot hear about him as of ten as we usedto, and we hear a good deal of the boywho goes sailing on the river or pond ina catboat. It may be an attribute ofage not to hear of mothers who spendanxious hours while they are in thecountry, where they should be enjoyingthemselves, leat their' offspring shouldbe guilty of the turpitude of natation.At any rate, that brief chronicler of/ thetimes, the funny paragrapher, is jestingless and lesB, year, by year, about themother who detects her wayward childby lus wet hair, and subsequently triesto teafch him that the water is bad forgrowing youth.

Time was when the average boy woretassels on -his cap and walked abroadholding the hand of an over-careful pa-rent. Then cigarette smoking was lookedupon as a sure precursor of intemper-ance, and the boy was taught to regardhia vices as manly because their practicewas rebellion. Fathers and mothers aremore sensible than they were, much tothe advantage of the youngsters.

Every father'who lives in the vicinityof navigable water, and who can affordit, ought to give his boy a catboat, or atleast a sailing canoe. That is, of course,assuming that the boy has a healthybody, and a mind that works with or-dinary accuracy and coolness. If hecannot afford to buy a boat for his boy,he ought to seek out opportunities forhim to learn to sail in other boys' boats.Topeglect this is to neglect one « of thebest of the means of youthful education.The mastery of a catboat improves everyfaculty of the boy. It makes him strongof body alert of mind, cool in danger,thoughtful of the rights of others, self-respectful and firm in maintaining hisown rights, for no boy can sail a catboatwithout Taring with another boy's cat-boat, and when he races he must obeythe law of right of way, and he mustinsist on every advantage that is rightlyhis. His reasoning faculty, too, is morelargely developed than in any othergatne except that of football, which acatboat finely supplements, the footballfield enabling the boy to measure .him-self against contending human intelli-gence, while the catbpat enables him to1

contend against the invisible elementsof inanimate nature.

' But accidents occur witlr catboats."So they do, and so they do with horses,bicycles, rowboats, balls, bats, dogs andthe sportive game of. "tag." Will youhave your boy a " muff" or a " sissy "?Accidents do happen in catboats, andsometimes they are fatal, but how manyfatal accidents have happened to boyswho have been properly taught to handletheir catboats? -Not many. The usualcatboat accidents happen to the full-grown ignoramus, who, not knowing asheet from a sail, fills his boat with otherignoramuses and reaps the consequences.

Such accidents as these are not to betaken into account. Notwithstandingthem, it is true that if you would makea real man of your boy, he should betaught to sail a boat.

How They Managed It .Among some literary persons was a

certain well-known lady whose largestock of information contained some-thing about every topic except athletics.Baseball and football were her vulnera-ble points. Naturally she was much an-noyed to find herself sent out to dinnerwith a callow, sophomoric-looking youth,whose first question was whether she,had heard of the changes in the crew.Not knowing in the slightest whetherthe crew in question was a crew of sail-ors or of thieves, she looked interestedand gasped " No!" That was sufficient.She had loosed the flood gates of hiseloquence. For two hours he talkedathletics. She answered as well as shecould, looked pleased, and once tried tochange the topic of conversation by say-ing that the captain of the team was adelightful fellow and came from such anice family. But tlria straw was totallyunable to dam the river of athletic talk.Sho could only sit and suffer, and whenit was over sigh with relief.

What was her horror the next eveningto find herself again delivered over tothe athjetic youth. She was in despair.All the way outto tliediniiig-roora shethought hard. When they were seatedshe said:

"Mr. , you cau't talk about booksor people, and I shouldn't live throughanother two hours of boats and oars andfootballs and bruises. So I'll tell youwhat we'll do. Do you count ten veryslowly, one, two, three, four, five, six,seven, eight, nine, ten, then I'll look in-terested and laugh. >Then I'll countten and you look interested and laugh."

A Sermon for Wives.Every brido knows her power; every

wife comes to know ,her weakness,••'• Agood proportion of the heartbreak ofearly married life is due to tho fermentof this knowledge. The girl whose lovergave up his cigarfi and his club with suchangelic meekness finds that her husbandcan smoke like a chimney and leave heralone nights in order to spend the even-ing with MB men friends. She imaginesthat he cares leBS for her than he did,which is a mistake in most cases. Sevenout of ten men love their wives betterthan their sweethearts. It is simplythat their presence ia not the absorbingexcitement that it was when love wasnew. The chances are that tho wife isbecome a dozen times more necessary totho man than over the sweetheart couldhave been. He would feel her death farmore keenly, but he does not need toadjure his heart to " sit still" wheneverMB fancy summons her image. In short,she is become the bread of existence inplace, of tho elixir. Now, most of uswho have sense would prefer to bo broadrather than elixir, but there is no ques-tion that more fuss is made over theelixir. _

Walter A. Wood Single Apron Harvester.This machine I consider the best harvesting machine in the

world. By means of the single apron the grain is handledcarefully, and even when dead-ripe is not threshed out by theharvester and lost, as ia the case with machines having threeaprons. The platform is open behind, and thus allows the tall-est and ripest grain to be harvested without being shelled out.

The T U B U L A R S T E E L M O W E R , madeby the same company, lias taken the lead. It cuts from five tosix feet. It cuts grass as low as a lawn mower, and is verylight draft. At the same time it is Btronger and more durablethan others.
