CLARE MARKET. tn th. market of rtare, so cheery the flare Of the shops and the booths of the tradespeople there. That I lake a delight on a Saturday night In walking that way and in viewing the sight; For it's here that one sees all the objects that please— New patterns in silk and old patterns In cheese. For the girls pretty toys, rude alarums for boys, And baubles galore which discretion enjoys— But hear I forbear, for I really despair Of naming the wealth of the nuirket of Clare! The rich man comes down from the elegant town. And looks at It all with an ominous frown; He seems to despise the graudlloquent criea Of the vender proclaiming his puddings and pies: And sniffing he goes through the lanes that dis close Much cause for disgust to his sensitive nose; Once free from the crowd, he admits he is proud That elsewhere, in London, this thing's not al lowed— He has seen nothing there but filth everywhere, Aud he's glad to get out of the market of Clara, But the child that has come from the neighbor • mg slum is dr ?..-raed by the magic of daaz.le and hum; He feasts his big eyes on the cakes and the pies: And they seem to grow green and protrude with surprise At the goodies they vend and the toys without . end— • And it's oh! if he had but a penny to spend; But, alas! he must gate in a hopeies amase At treasure* that glitter and torches that bias*— What sense of despair in this world can compare With that of the waif in the market of Clare? 80, on Saturday nights, when my custom In vitee A stroll tn Old London for curious sights, I am likely to stray by a devious way Where goodie* are spread in a motley array. The things which some eyes would Appear to despise Impress me as pathos in homely disguise, And iny tattered waif friend shall have j«*nnias to spend, Bo long &h I've got ’em (or friends that will lend); And the urchin shall share in my joy and declam That there's beauty and good in that mortal place there! - Eugene FtaftdL Chased by a Gander. A man who was caught in the act of skinuing a neighbor's sheep cov ered his embarrassment by declaring that no sheep could bite him and live. The logic of this is equaled by that of the Yankee soldier who once had a narrow escape from an enraged gan der. The men of a certain Maine regi ment, which was in the enemy’s coun try in 1862, considered the order “no foraging” an additional and uncalled for hardship. One afternoon about dusk a soldier was seon beating a rapid retreat from the rear of a farmhouse near by, closely pursued by ' a gander with wings outspread, whose feet seemed scarcely to touch the ground, and from whose beak issued a succession of angry screams. The fugitive was not reassured by thecrießof the gander’s owner: “Hold on, man, hold on! He won’t hurt you!" “Call off your guilder! Call him ofT!” shouted tho fleeing soldier. Neither man nor gander stopped until inside the camp lines, when the soldier's friends relieved him of his fierce pursuer with the aid of the butt of a musket. “Did that gander think lie could chase me like that and live?" tho sol dier exclaimed, as he surveyed the outstretched bird; but he said nothing of the baited hook, with cod lino at tached, which might have thrown light on the unfortunate gander's strange actions. —Youth’s Companion. Secret of Sleep Is llogulitrlty. The experience of u night worker lias led to some philosophical and logi cal conclusions. It seems that his 'duties were of a nature to keep him awake until the joy und freshness and exhilaration of the dawn banished all desire for sleep. lie tried to read him self to sleep, to count himself to sleep, to think himself to sleep, and to use a little Christian science and imagine he wus asleep, all to no purpose. lie deflected his eyes downward until he was nearly crosseyed. He darkened the room, and he dimly lighted it. He put his poor head on the pillow and under the pillow, on the lounge and on the floor. He tried and wore out every sleep producing drug known. Finally ho became really ill, aud was bundled off to the country to recuj>crate. He went to lx-d at 10 o'clock because every one else did. He rose at 7 for the same reason, when lo! the desired cure was brought übout w hen he least expected it. After u little he went to sleep and wakened with the regularity of clockwork. In accordance with his experience he advises every ono to go to bed at a certain hourevery night, I whether they are sleepy or not, and to arise at a certain hour in the mprning, whether they feel refrushed and wake ful or not. Nature is a creature of habit, and after his harrowing experi . cace with drugs and nostrums he has [ decided that nature is the only physi cian who can cure insomnia.—New York Sun. A Hole Through Ills Hud;. “Lieut. Muncie, of the Sixty-first Georgia regiment,” said Capt. Tip, “was one of the most remarkable men I ever knew. He was a slender, ca ; daverous looking man, with apparent ly no physical strength, yet he lived I through what would have killed a ' dozen ordinary men, and is alive to . day. In the early part of tlie war he r was shot through and through. The [ bad struck the breast bone and shat | tered it, pussed through bis body I and came out within an inch lof his spine between two ribs. I After a desperate struggle for I life be recovered and joined his | regiment. At the battle of Monaceasie I creek he was again wounded, the ball ■ entering between the corresponding ■ ribs on the other side of his spine and ■issuing from the same hole that the ■ first ball entered at. The second shot ■must have taken the passage inside B&uncie’s body that the first ball made Bn going in the opposite direction. He Kras in prison with me later and ap Beared to suffer no unusual pain.”— Kvtlanta Constitution. m I Consumption at U i*l» Altitude*.

Ail Old Trunk. Mrs. Winnie Mitchell, a widow liv ing about a mile from -Rochelle, Ga., has a small, leather covered trunk which in all probability is 250 years old. It has been handed-down through seven generations. It was brought across from Europe long before the war of the Revolution, full of gold, and was used by Mrs. Mitchell's grand father while in service under Gen. Washington. It was first-owned by Mrs. Mitchell's great-grandfather, and Mrs. Mitchell is now 67 years of age and has great-grandchildren. - Chi cago Mail. . Ole Hull's Self Ucxpect. l’lie late Ole Bull, the well known vt >1 ii list, was jicrfectly fearless of con sequences when his self respect was touched. As an example of this: The grand duchess of Mecklenburg gave tho musician a letter of commendation to her father, then king of Prussia, afterward the Emperor William. With this he went to Berlin, where, as directed, he called first on the sujier intendent of the Royal Opera house, to whom he stated his mission. That gentleman wus so patronizing that Bull could hardly stand it; but event ually an hour was fixed on the follow ing day for another call at the opera house. The violinist, with his usual punctu ality, presented himself at the hour, determined to stund no nonsense. “Where is your violin?" demanded the BU]>orintendciit. "In the case," responded Ole Bull, coolly. “And whore is the case?" “At the hotel." “But did 1 not tell you to play for me?" “Excuse ma sir,” wus the an swer. “I did not think you were in earnest. I play either for money or honor, and in this case neither is in question.” Tim manager was piqued, and he replied sharply: “I cannot pre sent you to his majesty without hav ing heard you.” “If the request of the grand duchess is not a sutllcient recommendation to his majesty, her father, I am content to leave the city,” which ho did that «Wy Ch umbers’ Journal. • Two Antique ( huti-H. When Mr. E. Edwards purchased of Mrs. Ilonry Yeuton tho mansion on Clinton avenue built anil formerly occupied by Mr. George A. Wells, he also catno into possession of a part of tho furniture, which comprises two interesting and valuable historical rel ics. These are two massive and elab orately fcarved chairs of stute which -Mrs. Yeaton brought to this country from France. A letter to Mr. Yeaton inquiring us to the origin and history of these antique and stately pieces of furniture elicited the reply thut they had formed part of the furniture of Holyrood castle, formerly an abode of Scottish royalty, during tho stay there of Mary, the unfortunate Scotch queen. This would make them some thing over 800 years old. Tradition says that the chairs came into tho |x>s sessiou of the Yeaton fatuity from an ancestor who was one of Queen Mary’s wards of honor. It further assorts thut Queen Mary was seated in one of these chairs and Lord Durnley, her hus band, in the other, whon certain of tho courtiers followed Riccico, tho queen’s secretary, into the apartment and poignated him to death before the eyes of his royal mistress and her consort, who had instigated the deed.— Bridge port Farmer. No Trade on Mere liepu tat lon. An advertising agent called upon the head of an old and prominent (Irm. That gentleman received him politely, but informed him that his house had no occasion whutover for advertising, as it was very well known Und hud done all the advertising that was requisite in its eurlier days. “Indeed,” rescinded the agent; “so you think that your advertising in earlier days is sufficient to carry you along nowt” “I do,” was the confident reply. “Will you kindly tell me the name of the vice presidential candidate on the Republican ticket the election be fore lastf” The big man scratched his head for a moment, looked abashed and re plied, “Well, no I can't.” “Do you know of any man who w as better advertised at that timet” The agent left the store with a con tructin his pocket.—Jewelers’ Weekly. war Tli-i was a tlaim.

WHY DCDN'T THEY STAY AT HOME? Celefttmlft Have Coal, Iron, Timber and WanliiiiK in Abundance. Li Hung Chang, the viceroy of Chi na, is reported as having made the as sertion that within the next half cen tury China would lie covered with u network of railways; that it would have rolling mills and furnaces, with immense mineral resources and un limited cheap labor to back them, and that China inuy do the manufacturing of the world. While China is proverbially slow in adopting the methods of the outside bar buriaim, a striking change has been tak ing place there lately; and today China has an excellent flc*t of ironclads of the most modern tyjie, is arming and disciplining its soldiers after Europeun models, has telegraph lines and ut least one railway in successful opera tion, and is pushing forward in a phe nomenally rapid way, for conservative China, toward the acquisition of the majority of the arts aud manufactures that but lately marked the difference between it and other more civilized tuitions. The industrial momentum of a na tion of 400,(XX),(XX) inhabitants, cover ing one-tenth of tho inhabitable globe, if once fairly started, is well worth con sideration. Baron Richthofen, in de scribing tho northwest of China, says that tho Shansi district is one of the most remarkable coal and iron regions in the world, and he estimates that at the present rate of consumption the coal of this district would supply tho world for thousands of years to corue. It iu claimed by some writers that Shansi, whon more thoroughly ex plored, will bear away tho palm from Pennsylvania, whoso 20,000 sqnarc miles of coal laud have been hereto fore considered the greatest single du posit in the world. Richthofen says further thut this coal can bo very easily and cheaply extracted on u lnrge scale, and tliat iron ore of an ex cellent quality is found in quantities in the immediate vicinity of the coa! fields. Bo this as it may, mineral wealth is abundant, and when it cornfes to a question of lalsir the Chinese can fur nish this to an almost limitless degree, and recruit it from a class that is nat urally patient, skillful and content with small gains. Wo do not agree with tho viceroy in his prophecy that all ho hopes for may be accomplished in fifty years. China is too deeply settled in its rut for that, and other nations, with the inuuy advantages they already possess, will be mov ing, too, at an always accelerating rate; but the Chinese may sometime be very active competitors in the manufacturing world. Engineering News. Aii Inventor'* Folly. A few months ago an inventor of a certain apparatus of a very simple character, which could have been duplicated in many different forms, wus offered #6,000 for tho right to a certain inlund town. He was a poor man und needed the money badly. The. reader supposes, of course, thut the inventor jumped a# the ehunconnd pocketed the money on tho spot. Not lie; lie told tho buyer that the patent was worth #IOO, (XX), und he was not go ing to sell ono town in New York slate for #6,000. Tho same inventor was offered a similar sum for another large town in the state, or #IO,OOO for only two cities in the country, but he refused to take it. Wo have these facts from the inventor himself, and they are correct. Before it was too late to negotiate wo berated the man soundly for his folly, but he was deal' to all argument. The sequel wus thut the inventor never sold a single right, and has his patent to this diyr. —Engi- neering. A Tith'd Gy mnuNtn. An English paper asserts that there is a titled lady whoso chief pleasure i found in exhibiting her muscular powers in her own drawing room to a circle of admiring and astonished friends. Attired in u long and cling ing gown, she lies down at full length upon the floor, with arms hold closely to her sides. A friend i$ then request ed to fasten her skirts securely around her feet and place her handkerchief upon them. This done, the hundker chief is conveyed by her feet to her mouth. She then resumes her first ]K>sition, and, without moving her arms, gradually raises herself until she stands upon her feet, without a hair out of place or the tiniest bend of moisture on her brow.—New York Sun. Odd Scotch Manner*. Scotch manners can occasionally be odd. A Glasgow gentleman in es eorting sortie ladies from a dunce found a diamond hairpin in the bot tom'of the cab and handed it to one of the ladies. The owner advertised, and the young lady who had taken it from her escort received a re wan! of £lO. Then the young man applied for a share of the money, and, she refus ing, he earned the question to court The court allotted him £5. —Exchange. Henry O. Kiblin, who fitted up the Boston and Albany railroad’s emerg eney room in Springfield, Mass., was the first one to be operated upon in it. He jumped from a moving train, and, falling under the wheels, his left leg was so crushed that amputation was necessary. A gentleman in Paris, Tex., owns a horse which makes a habit of eating young chickens. Every time a young chicken comes within reach of the horse it is sure to be swallowed. All at Once. The fulling of a big tree under the woodman's ax is always an impressive sight—and an impressive sound—as all country bred readers will testify. The historian of the “Seventy-ninth Highlanders,” of New York, describes tlie cutting Joivu of a whole hillside of trees under circumstance* that must have made it a memorable spectacle. It was during the advance of the Army of the Potomac after the defeat at Bull Run. Fortifications were or dei-eu thrown up, aud the men of the Maine and 'Wisconsin regimenu> were set to work at tree felling, a work with which they proved themselves perfect !>• laminar. It was an interesting sight to witness the simultaneous fall of u whole hill side of timber. Tho choppers began at the foot of the hill, the line extending for per haps half a mile. They cut only part way through the tree, and in this way worked up to tho crest, leaving the trees in the top row in such a condition that a single blow would bring them down. Then, w hen all was ready, the bugle sounded, aud the last strokes were given. Down came the upper tier of trees. These brought down those be low them, and, like the billow on the surface of the ocean, the entire forest fell with a crash like mighty thunder. An Old Idoa of limulation. After all, these insulated coffee pots do hut represent the application of a device familiar centuries ago to the fishermen of south Normandy and the Brittuny coast. It has been for an in definite period the custom there for these toilers of the sea to start out with their nets in the afternoon, carrying with them a warm meal for the day following.- The pot containing the stew or heated delicacy is wrapped in a mattress stuffed w ith feathers or in closed in a box with feather lined cushions, and after fifteen hours tiie dinner is spread us hot us if it had just come off the fire, not more than three or four degrees being lost ul all events. I know a man who made a little feather stuffed box on that idea and put his newly boiled shaving water in it just before he went to bed every night. In the morning, when he got up early and shaving water would not have been easy to get off hand, he opened the box and took out the water still scalding hot.—Washington Star. Governmental Thermometer*. "The United States government don’t go in for expensive thermome ters," said Lieut. Finley. "I don’t sup pose the finest one at the headquarters of the weather bureau in Washington is worth over #IOO. Tho thermometers used at the signal stations cost #5. A thoroughly reliable instrument can be purchased for that amount. These thermometers are übout twelve inches long. Each station lias several of them. It is necessary to have two kinds, the spirit thermometer to meas ure minimum temperature and the mercurial thermometer to measure the maximum temperature. There are three famous makers in the United stutes, two of whom ure in New York. A th ermometer," Lieut. Finley re marked, “improves with nge. The older it gets the better it is. It is absolutely necessary for the tube to season. It must be several years old before it be comes reliable."—Jewelers’ Review. A DolU'louh Meal. Anything more toothsome und nu tl'itious than the vintager’s pot uu feu, which 1 lately tasted in the Mcdocdur ing the gathering of tho grapes, can not well be imagined. It was so de licious that a supply of it was ordered into the chateau for midday lunch, uud it was voted by acclamation worthy ot a cordon bleu.
