A friend of the writer who is teaching iu a colored school in- the south,
tells some amusing incidents in her
letters home. She wrote recently of a
Bible class which she had been conducting, iu which she asked one boy how
Jacob got away from Laban. He
didn't know, but the boy behind him
whispered, "Stoled away unawares."
He was very glad of the assistance and
answered with great assurance, He'*
dun stoled Laban's underwears."

A citizen on Brook at- had a vivid
experience early Saturday morning
that he is trying hard to forget. . For
some reason he awoke about 5 a. tn.
ivith a start. Looking through his
bedroom window he saw a cloud of
smoke and a sheet of llame creeping
along the wall of his uoighbur's house.
With a blood-curdling yell of "lire"'
he leaped from, bed, pulled on his
trousers, seized a pail of water and still
yelling, rushed ouL into the nipping
air in his most abbreviated costume
and llew to the rescue, only to find''
that his neighbor was merely burning
some rubbish between the two houses.

Bepublicau leaders openly affirm that
the recent election must nut be construed as a warrant far high-Eai-ift"
legislation. They are ot the opinion
that the countrv -desires a moderate
tariff policy. Senator McMillan, of
our own state, says that the time for
that kind of legislation is past, and
that the men who in past years have
insisted upon extreme legislation will
not be permitted to have their own
way. In what way will the party
increase the revenues of the government. Its leaders said before election
that a high tariff measure would be
passed in case the government was
placed in their hands.—Times.
Some of our exchanges, in fact most
of them, seem inclined to find fault
with Bryan and bis followers lor saving that they must now begin, acam-j
paigh of education for 1900, ou the subject of the currency. They argue that
that matter was settled at tho last election, and that the silver men should
allow the matter to rest at that. We
cannot agree with this. If the silver
men were fighting for a principle as
they claimed to be a protracted discussion of those principles would b<s a
good thing for the country. Their
claim for silver wassprung so suddenly
and carried to such an extreme, and
was coupled with so many other objectionable features in their platform ,that
its defeat at the last election was a
cause-of national rejoicing. But even
the republican party stood according
to its own claims, lor proper bimettal-
ism; and we bplieve in a thorough candid dicussion o£ the whole question
during the coming four years, when no
immediate office seeker is at hand. If
the new administration brings prosperity under its policy, as now seems
probable, perhaps no change will be.
desired. But lot us study the question
conscientiously that no sudden wave
of passion may cause us to rush into
any financial policy, as would have
been this case had Bryan triumphed in
the late election.—Democrat.
Ants Wltli Umbrellas.
The doings of ants are among the
most interesting things that naturalists
find to study. No members of the insect
•world present more startling suggestions
of intelligence and forethought governing their actions. It is not correct, however, to explain the habits and condnct
of ants by human analogies. For instance, it was once supposed that the so
called "parasol ants," living in hot,
tropical countries, carried little leaves
above their heads for tho sake of protection frOm the sun. Later investigations
have shown that the ants actually do
carry leaves, suspended by the stem
■which they hold in their jaws, and that
columns of them thus furnished with
leaves like an army with banners march
in regular order, but ihat the leaves, instead of being intended to shelter the
ants from the sunshine, are deposited
by them around their nests to form a
soil in which grows a kind of fungns
that they are fond of. SO the parasol
ant is not a dandy, but a farmer.—

Relics ITroni Costa Rica.
The consulate of 'Costa Rica in Philadelphia has iu its charge a unique collection of Costa Ricau archaeological
material of great scientific value from
Santa Crnz. It is composed of over
3,000 stone objects and of over 400 ceramics, of which 50 per cent is broken.
There is also included a number of gold
idols, jewels, ornaments and grinding
stones. The Costa Rican archaeology is
the link connecting the ancient specimens formed in the other states of Central Amorica and-, the discoveries made
iu South America and presents well defined traces of two distinct civilizations,
one descending uorth by the Pacific
coast and the other immigrating from
the Opposite direction on the Atlantic
side, spreading out toward the interior
of the central plateau, where it comes
in contact with the other. The first is
typified by the ancient chorotega.
Quiet Amusement In Philadelphia.
Au up town man gets lots of quiet
amusement out of a rank counterfeit
quarter dollar which ho carries among
other chauge in his pocket. When he
gets ou a trolley oar and the conductor
comes for his fare, ,he pulls out whatever small change he has about him
and fingers among it as if he were going to offer the old counterfeit piece,
which, of course, he never does. About
that time the alert couductor almost invariably says, "That quarter is no
good." "Well, suppose it isn't," says
the man. "I haven't offered it to you,
have I?" Aiih selecting a piece of good
money ho gives it to the conductor. Mr.
Conductor takes a sideloug look at the
mau, and with an expression ou his
face almost as plain as word's could
speak prides himself that that fellow
didn't work his counterfeit ouarter ou
him.—Philadelphia Record.
One of Gould's Ways.
Jay Gould took a f aucy to a preacher
in St. Louis and gave him, a tip on
Missouri, Kansas and Texas, which was
selling at the very top notch. • 'Buy 100
shares," he said, "and I'll guarautee
ypu against loss." A few weeks afterward he received a letter from the
preacher, informing him that he had
been wiped out aud asking for his guarantee. A call followed, aud Jay-'gave a
check for the amount lost.
"But what about my friends?" the
preacher said.
"1'iiiuot guaranteeing your friends,"
was tho reply. The preacher had told
every one he knew to buy M., K. and
T., and Gould profited thereby.^—New

THE  LAKE.
By tho still waters that the lilies love,
"Where willows droop and tall elm trees shade
"Whilo the groat sun filled all. the heavens above
I down mo laid.
Ilicard tho twittering of tho mating birds,
I heard tho wanton brceza steal dbwn the
brealr,
Bigh to tho leaves soft thoughts too sweet for
words
And kiss the lake.
And here, when life was young and hope was
high.
On such n summer day I laid mo down
And dreamt of lovo and strife and victory
And high renown.
And hqro again 1 iay mo down and dream.
Tho sun's a,i bright asthen. the birdsas gay,
Btill on tho laku the water lilies gleam
In rich array.

Weary with   years,  weary with fortune's

Weary with sorrow, my soul hopo to die
And then to rest.
