A QUIET PORT.
There lies a quiet port across the sea,
Where the proud sail is furled,
Where the bright banner flares and flaunts no
more
That once waved round the world.
There the brave ships that steered for other
shores,
That fought the bitter hlast.
And dared the unknown straits, the frost-hung
bays,
Find harborage at last.
And those white barks that sought the isles of
dream,
The lands of love's report,
They, too, though steering gladly otherwhere,
Have found the quiet port.
There the dark night comes down around them,
there
The weary captains rest,
The homesick voyager bows down his head,
The sage forgets his quest.
But yet, ah, even while we fall in sleep,
We are content to wait ;
Comrades, the land of our desire is near,
This port is but its gate.
— Elizabeth G. Roberts, in Harper's.
MICKIE FINNEGAN’'S WIDOW.
Half an hour before little Mickie Fin-
negan made his unexpected exit from this
curious world he called for his wife. Bend-
ing over his pillow the young woman kiss-
ed his blood-stained lips and asked him
what he wanted.
“I want ter tell ver dat I’m a goner,”’
gasped Mickie, ‘‘an’ dat I knows it. Some-
ting has busted in me head an’ I’m a bleed-
in’. Der last bullet dat Madigan shot in-
ter me did de biz. After I’ve croaked tink
of me sometimes an’ ‘take good care of de
kid. Youse know, Nell, dat I wuz al-
ways sweet on yer an’ never hused yer ;
did I, Nell 2”
“Never, Mickie, dear,” moaned the
woman, ‘‘never since de day yer took me
to de priest, an’ dat was a year ago. Dat’s
wot makes me so sore on Madigan.”
‘Never yer mind him,” replied Mickie,
‘‘de cops have nabbed him an’ he'll sit in
de chair fur dis night’s work, hang him.
Wot I wants of youse is ter promise ter be
good an’ take care of de kid.”
She gave the promise, and then she
( fainted. Little Mickie called for ‘four
~ fingers’’ of straight whiskey and they gave
it to him. They brought the baby to him
and he kissed it. Twenty minutes later
he was dead.
*
After the funeral Nell had seven dollars
in money and the sympathy of every other
woman in the big tenement. A month
later both money and sympathy had dis-
appeared. The agent insisted on having
either the rent or the rooms. The bahy
was sick. The young widow was penni-
less. One dark afternoon Nell climbed tie
dingy stairs in anything but a pleasant
frame of mind. The doctors at the dis-
pensary had told her that the baby needed
things that only money could buy. The
affable pawnbroker had politely refused to
advance her a penny on the gold-plated
earrings dangling from her ears. When
she entered her rooms the fire was out and
the baby was crying. Nell sat down on
the edge of the bed and shivered. She was
cold, hungry and desperate.
It was Sunday afternoon, and the voice
of a deep-toned bell in the belfry of a
neighboring church filled the place with its
sombre melody.
“My God.” moaned Nell, “‘an’
ised Mickie dat I'd take care of
an’ dis is de way I'm doin’ ijt.
kie, me heart's hreakin' and
in’!
Just then Mame Murphy
door and entered the room.” Mame lived
with Ler mother in the rooms across the
hall. AH the other women in the house
taiked about Mame. All save Nell.
“Sav, Nell," said Mame, “how’s youse
an’ der baby feelin’ dis aft? Yer both
“hout as cheerial lookin’ as a funeral. If
Youse Keeps worr'in’ over ligtle tings,
yer'll lose yer complexion an’ ver looks

am here to tell ver how yer kin make fif-
teen plunks an’ havea chance ter win a
diamond ing wot is de real ting an’ worth
a hundred dollars. See?”
“How 2’ inquired Nell.
“De guy as rans de museum over on de
Bowery,”” answered Mame, ‘‘is a friend of

“Naw, Mame, it wouldn’t he right,”’ re-
sponded Nell. “Tink of me

sides, wot d’yer tink I could wear 2 Naw,
Mame, it wouldn’t be right.”
She might have said more, but the baby
began to ery, and she wasted five minutes
in a vain effort to soothe it.
‘Seems ter me,”’ remarked Mame, ‘“‘dat

When Mame returned with the medicine
the baby was asleep and Nell was clad in
the clinging folds of her wedding gown,
For a lonely instant the two women gazed
each at the other and did not speak. Then
Mame drew a long breath and uttered this
tribute to the beauty of her friend :
‘Nell, youse de best lookin’ chip I ever
saw. Der aint a chip in Fifth avenoo as

take de baby over to me mudder an we'll
hurry over to de museum.’’
Before Nell left the room she went over®
to the bureau and kissed the photograph of
her dead husband again and again.
“I'm doin’ it fur de baby, Mickijé,’’ she
murmured. “I promised yer 1a take
good care of it, an’ I’m goin’ ter earn de
money ter keep it from starvin’.”’
* * * * *
It was the final hour of the last night of
the ‘‘beauty show.” The museum was
literally packed to the very doors. The
official count of the ballots cast for the
prize beauty of the show was progressing
rapidly. The ten contestants were seated
on the low platform chaffing with their ad-
mirers and impatiently waiting for the ver-
dict. Nell and Mame sat side by side.
Half a dozen men, including her ‘‘steady,’’
were telling Mame that she was the pretti-
est thing on earth and would win hands
down. &
“Nit,” answered Mame, ‘‘yousc guys
know dat Nell’s got de most votes an’ dat
she’s got a right to ’em. Jest look at her.
Aint she’s pretty as a picture ?”’
And the girl spoke the plain, unvarnish-
ed truth. Nell was more than pretty that
night, she was beautiful. She was all in
white. Save for the blushes in her cheeks,
and the blood-red rose in her ink-black
hair, there was naught of color] about her.
The white silk gown clung to her perfect
figure like a glove, and the fluffy lace
nestled lovingly against her white throat.
Her white beauty seemed to impress the
crowd. All sorts and conditions of men
stood and feasted their eyes on her won-
derous charms, but few attempted to speak
to her. These she repulsed with a glance
of disdain. With a native dignity all her
own she had managed to spend six weary
nights in that stuffy, overheated room.
She had earned her wages. She had es-
caped insult. She was satisfied.
Suddenly the manager of the museum
stepped to the front of the platform and
made the usual announcement to the
crowd.
‘And now, ladies al) gentlemen,’ he
continued, ‘I take great pleasure in an-
nouncing that Miss Nellie here is the lady
Mho has won the prize for being the most
beautiful and charming young woman
among the contestants. She wins the
ring.» ;
He opened the little plush-covered box,
and the crowd saw that the diamond was
genuine. Nell heard a pawnbroker who
stood in the front row mutter to the man
at his side : ‘‘She can soak that at my
shop for $75 any time she likes.”’
She didn’t wait to hear the congratula-
tions. She even startled the manager by
refusing an offer for another week’s engage-
ment. She simply took the ring and her
$15 and started for home. She almost ran
up the stairs, and when she reached the
top landing she was gasping for breath and
her cheeks were cherry red. She pushed
open the door and threw off her cloak.
Old Mrs. Murphy was seated in a low
chair at the head of the baby’s crib. The
lamp on the table was turned low, and the
place dimly lighted. The fragrance of
drugs flavored the atmosphere.
*‘Oh, Mrs. Murphy !”’ cried Nell. ‘Wot
do yer tink ? I won de ring, an’ old Isaacs
says dat I kin soak it for $75! Me an’
baby’s goin’ to der country. Baby’s rich,
Mrs. Murphy. She’s’”’——
‘Well, dear,” interrupted Mrs. Murphy,
“don’t yer talk like dat. De poor little
ting is wid his poor, dead daddy now.
Nell, me darlin’, yer baby died just ten
minutes ago by de clock. Dat’s right ;
don’t take it hard, dear ; yer wasn’t ter
bianie.”’
Jut Nell did not hear the old woman's
mutterings. She had staggered over to the
crib and was gazing at the lifeless body of
her child. Her face was as white as the
lace at her throat, strange lights kindled
and glowed out of the depths of her glori-
ous eyes, her breath came in short, ir-
regular gasps, and she shivered, although
the room was overheated. For a time—it
may have been a moment, it seemed an
hour—she stood at the side of the crib as
motionless and silent as a marble figure.
Then. with a groan, she sank on her knees
and Kissed the wax-like face of the baby
again and again. She took the red rose
from her hair and laid it on the white
quilt that covered the tiny body. Next
she drew the diamond ring from its case
and hurled the sparkling gem to the floor.
“Mickie. dear,” she moaned, as she bar-
ied her head among the pillows ; “Mickie,
I tried me best, bunt it wasn’t no go. I
aint no good now. Mickie, seein’ dat I lost
both of de tings I'loved. De baby’s gone
ter youse, Mickie. For God’s sake take
better care of it den I did. Dm goin’
crazy, Mickie. I'm crazy now’'—

The Confession of James Monks.
Two weeks ago the WATCHMAN publish-.
ed an account of the various hangings that
have been made in Bellefonte since the con-
struction of Centre county and in that of
James Monks, the second murderer to ex-
piate his crime on the gallows, the ‘‘Con-
fession’” was referred to. It has brought
out the halting rhyme that Monks
is credited with having written while in
jail here and for those who might be inter-
ested it is appended :
Draw near all ye good people that now is come to
view,
To hear the sad and shameful end that I am
brought unto;
| I pray you all take warning by my unhappy
fate,
Shun vice and folly before it is too late.
In the county of Centre, I first drew my breath;
And in that same county T will meet my shame-
ful death,
Had I followed the example my parents gave to me,
I never would have suffered upcn the shame-
ful tree.
This day Iconfess to my sorrow and shame,
I shot Reuben Guild whom [ never knew by
name
And left his body weltering all in a purple gore,
Even now I regret it and will forever more.
The Devil so possessed me, before he was quite
dead,
With my Tomakawk I gave him two blows upon
the head,
Then like a bloody savage I stripped of his
clothes
And left his mangled body, with wild beasts to
repose.
His horse and saddle bags they then became my
prey ;
His watch and
away.
I thought the cruel murder would never come to
light,*
Being done in the wilderness, all in the dead of
night.
his pocket-book I also toolk
I concealed the bloody shirt in the hollow of a tree
But it was hunted out and revealed against me
To show that a proved murder should not un-
punished go
A dog told the secret of what no man did know.
The Lord who seeth in secret constrained them
so to do
That the author of the murder should not un-
punished go.
The hones were preserved and presented at my
trial.
This last proof would admit no denial.
My counsellors endeavored to save me from the
tree ;
But O! the court and jury no favor showed
to me, -
They soon found me guilty and sentence then
did pass
That I was to suffer by the fatal cord at last.
There is one thing I say before I am done with
time :
I blamed Andrew Allison for this
crime,
Bat since I am to sutter, to tell a lie I scorn,
He is as clear and innocent as an infant yet
unborn.
my cruel
I hope there is no one =o cruel as to cast up this
crime
To my young posterity or any friend of mine.
I bid along farewell to all I leave behind.
I die a true penitent, at peace with all mankind.

GRADUATION OF TEST BOTTLES
Many of the Babcock bottles, thermom-
eters and pipettes which are purchased
from the dairy supply houses are improper-
ly graduated. The following method for
testing such bottles is simple, rapid and
accurate enough for all practical purposes.
Fill the hottle to the zero mark of the
scale with water, removing any drops that
may adhere to the neck with a strip of !
blotting or filter paper. Then add a two
oe centimeter pipette full of water to
th® test bottle. If the bottle
properly graduated the water added will
fill it to the ten per cent. mark. If the
water comes two-tenths of a per cent. or
more above or below the ten percent. mark
the bottle should be destroyed. In making
this test always read from the lowest point
of the curve formed by the surface of the
water on a level with the eye.
Pipettes for the above purpose can be or-
dered by residents of Pennsylvania through
the Experiment Station at a cost of 33 cents
cach in advance.
Common dairy thermometers are liable
to be several degrees in error and should
always be compared with a standard in-
strument before using. Correct thermome-
ters for this purpose, as well as standard
milk and cream pipettes, test bottles, Etc.,
can also be ordered through the Station
oi the terms named in Bulletin 33.

The grand army is dying at the rate of

puts under more old soldiers than there are

them off faster in the 90s than bullets did
in the 60s. The war lasted four years to a
month. In those four years 81,000 men fell
in battle on the Union side. But now be-

The Milk in the Cocoa-Nut.
From the Easton Sentinel.
Governor Hastings has sought the advice
of a number of the richest men of the State
relative to what action the Legislature
ought to take in the erection of a new cap-
itol building. The chief executive some
time ago expressed himself as favorable to
a ‘group of buildings’ instead of a single
building, and the ‘‘cuckoos’ naturally
agreed. Among the men who were asked
by Governor Hastings for advice was An-
drew Carnegie, the Scotch millionaire, who
it will be remembered hid himself in his
native highlands, in order that he might
be inaccessible while Frick was battling
with the Carnegie workmen at Homestead.
We always understood that Carnegie was
still a subject of England’s Queen, but that
may make no difference with Governor
Hastings, for it is a fact that a rich or titled
European is considered of more consequence
than a poor or unpretentious American.
Andy Carnegie not only endorsed Gov-
ernor Hastings’ pet plan for a ‘‘group’ of
buildings, but he ridiculed the idea of
considering the expense. When told that
it was a question whether the Common-
wealth had the right to borrow the money,
the canny Scotchman replied that he ‘vould
be one of several rich men who would ad-
vance the cash for a building which would
be ‘‘commensurate with the dignity and
importance of the Keystone State. He
said advance. He did not say give. Car-
negie knows very well that the people of
Pennsylvania would not allow any set of
men to advance the money to build a cap-
itol and not return it in full without in-
terest and he is cunning enough to want to
make the State his debtor, expecting there-
by to get at least the legal rate of interest
until the question could be determined.
Carnegie alluded to the capitol of New
York at Albany costing upwards of twenty
millions of dollars, and we have no doubt
he is willing our State can pay as much, if
he can only lend it the cash whergwith to
do it. ~~

How to Find Out.
Till a bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-four hours ; a sedi-
ment or settling indicates a diseased con-
dition of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is positive evidence of kidney trou-
ble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain
in the back, is also convincing proof that
the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
x WHAT TO DO.
i is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills
every wish in relieving pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of
the urinary passages. It corrects inability
to hold urine and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,’
wine or heer, and overcomes that unpleas-
ant necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urinate.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the
hignest for its wonderful cures of the most
distressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug-
gists price fifty cents and one dollar. For
a sample bottle and pamphlet both sent
free by mail, mention the WATCHMAN and
send your full post-office address to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.Y. The
proprietors of this paper guarantee the
genuineness of this offer.
