The correspondent of the London
Times at Rome gays: "Now that the
tumors as to the object of General Gari
baldi's visit to Rome have proved
groundless, it is asserted that lie has
come to the Eternal Cit>to die, Ilis
friends distinctly assert that politics are
wholly unconnected with his coming
here. He found that his health was not
improving at Caprera, and thought the
mineral springs near (,'i vita Vechia might
benefit his gou!. Garibaldi, replying to
t lie Syndic, who visited him on his ar
rival, said he did not himself know the
reason of his visit. A more pathetic
scene than that on Garibaldi's arrival
at the railway station has seldom been
beheld. Shouts were raised as the train :
entered the station, but they were
speedily silenced by the circulation that
the general was ill. He was carried from 1
the train on a mattress on a large litter. 1
He lay extended and motionless, with I
eyes closed, and a red handkerchief 1
hound his head. It looked as though a '
corpse was carried in state. It was i
found impossible to remove him from
the litter, which was placed on an open '
carriage, which was driven, aecom- '
ponied by a silent crowd, to the house 1
of his son, Menotti Garibaldi. It was so
h.-u-d to move the general that at Civita

A Child's Heart.
The other day a curious old woman,

tracUol a groun of thris- littieones. the
oldest alsiut nine. They stood in a row
in front of the old w oman, -aying never
a word, but watching her Incc. The
sinile brightened, lingered and then hu<i
denly faded invay, and a corner of her
old calico apron went up to wipe awav a
tear. Then the eldest child stepped for
ward and asked:
"Are you sorry because you haven't
got any children?'
" I—l h.'ul children once, hut they are
all d—dead." whispered the woman,
sob in her throat.
" I'm awful sorry," said the little girl,
as her own chin quivered. " I'd give
you one of my little brothers here, but
you see I haven't got but two, and I
don't believe I'd like to spare one."
"God bless you, child —bless you for
ever!" sobbed tbe old woman, and for a
full minute her face was buried in her
apron.
"But I'll tell you what I'll do," seri
ously continued tin* child. " You may
kiss us all once, and if little Ben isn't
afraid you may ki*.* him lour times, for
he's just as sweet as utnfly." -
Pedestrians who saw three well
dressed children put their arms around
that strange old woman's neck and kiss
her were greatly puzzled. They didn't
know the hearts of children, and tliey
didn't hear the woman's words as she
rose to go:
"Oh! children. I'm only a poor old

Some interesting incident* of Queen
Victoria's visit to Italy an* given by the
Italian pater*. I.ik** a true English
woman. she t**ok as much of England
with heron li*T journey a*possible. She
.*am*' by mill** \rotminan English rail
war ear. although the French roads
offered h*"." one more elegant and com
fortable. She declined with thank* tin*
offer of King Hurnliert'* carriage* for the
journey along the shore* of the lake
from Arona to Haveno, an*i made u*eof
an Eneli*li vehich*. which had ben **-nt
on in advance bv her order*. Although
nominally traveling incognito, the It.al
ian government managed to show Iter
much unobtrusive attention. A guard
of twenty royal carbineers kept watch
over the chateau where she was a guest:
an extra telegraph wir**v:ui put up from
liaveno t*> iJonio d' Os-ahi for h**r es
pecial ltenefit, tin*l th*' postal facilities of
the little lnk<'si<!*' village were inn-eased.
The Florence Gtizzctta d'lhilia r*'*-alls tin
fact that thi* is n*t the tjueen I *first visit
to Italy. She vva* at Haveno wln n she
was t*-n years old ami wa only the
iJuohetw of Kent. At that time sit*-was
■A thin, willowy girl, with magnifi**ent
blonde hair falling over her shoulders.
Perhaps it was the pleasant memories of
her childhoods' rambles along the shores
of the lovely lake that caused the queen's
strong desire to revisit Italy in her old

There was a time vvlii'it ha*)'hall was fun.
That time has long since passed avvav.
There are probably remote portions
of the country where there is stJIJ some
amusement in a game of base hall—where
the inhabitant* have not yet liiarmsl how
awfully s.'ientilie the game ha* Iteeomc.
There, when the striker hits tin- hall a I
giMl. reliable whack he runs for all lie
is worth. Win ii tin' other fellow get*
the ball lie doesn't place it <|||ietlv on the
base, hut lie hurl* it with unerring pre- ,
vision at the runner and knoek* two
dollars' worth of breath out of his hodv.
The runner i* then nut. He generally
goe* anil lie* down on the giit*s to think
over matter* and nib the spot where the
hall hit. Hut balls in those days were
not the globular brick* they are now. |
Any hov with a little ingenuity ami an
old Mocking could make a hall. A piece
of cork or a hit of rubber to make it I
"bounce." did to start on. Then the!
old stocking was raveled and the yarn
wound on this rubber basis until the
ball reached proper proportions, w hen it |
was covered with leather. Theltoy who
owned a nice, soft, covered hall, tva* a
king among hi* kind. Next to him enme |
the hov with a good bat. The prinei- '
paloflieial in the old style of ha*e hall '
was the fellow who sat on the top rail
of the fenee and kept tally. He cut tin
notches for one party on one edge of a
shingle, nml for the other party on the ,
other edge. Sometime* a good tallier
would do more for his favorite side than
it* batsman. There were no umpires in
those day* for both eaptains to quarrel i
with. When these two eaptains were <
ready to choose sides one tossed a hall- i
club*to the other and they went hand '
over hand to the top; the l*t hand that I
held the club liH'l the first rhoiee of
players. Sometimes a boy would insist j '
that his hand wa* last, while it projected !
over the end of tlie hat. This was et- jj
tied by another hoy striking with nn- !
other hat the end of the ehoostng hat. | (
If tlie lat hand eould staml the strokes ,
it was all right, but if the hand nrqjeeted ] ,
a little too high it was generally with- ,
drawn after the first blow. Those were i
the days when base hall was not com
posisl iff four parts of science ami one of
fun.— Prtc Pres.*
