Sho is n handsome woman Mrs.

Sho scolded him for going out nlono in

Out on tho wators found floating,
Only n Magdalen's olay
Only a frail lamb that wandered
From tho shophord's fold away.
Ovor tho fair faco disfigured
Cling the wot curls of gold;
Ovor tho passionless bosom
Tho wan, whito hands enfold.
Gathor tho wludlng-shcot higher
Ovor tho vlolot oyos
That ovon in death seems holding
A gleam of tho Juno-tlmo skies;
But lay hof awav to 9lumbor,
Far from our beautiful dead,
Whoro njyer a daisy shall blossom
Ovor hor sinful head.
What right has sho to tho sunshine
To tho songs ot singing birds
She who has wanderod in by-ways,
Lured by tempting words?
Gfvo hor a place In tho shadow,
Whoro only tho dew and the rain
Shall fall llko pitying toar-drops
Ovor her bod of shamo.
God may forgive hor but never
Man, who has lod hor astray,
Cau look with n throb of pity
Upon hor Magdalen's clay;
Tho angels who dwell in tho Presence
May mako for hor spirit room,
But earth has nothing to glvo hor,
Evon a roso-troo to bloom.
Then bury her under the shadows,
Whoro only tho dew and tho rain
Shall fall liko pitying tear-drops
Ovor hor bod of shamo.

TEUiiiESTitiAi, aiAostimsni.
A well known scientist has just pub
lished u new thoory to account for tho
variation of tho compass. Ho claims
that it Is duo to an electric, circuit
that is goncratod by tho motion of tho
earth whirling between two magnotio
Holds, and that tho varying intensity
of the curront causos tho variation of
tho noodlo. Tho two currents, ho bo
liovos, nro streaming to us from the
sun, ono being produced by tho corona
tho othor coming dlroct with tho sun
in straight linos' In othor words, ac
cording to this theory, electricity Is
generated by tho sun. It reaches us
tho samo way sunlight does, and tho
conclusion is that it Is akin to, if not
identical with, sunlight Itsolf. Tho ro
volvlng earth is the gigantic dynamo
which excites electrio currents and
makes them manifest.
Slaking u Harbor With Dynamite.
An attempt Is to bo mado to doopen

channel across so narrow u shoal.
Divers will bo sent down with the
dynamite cartridges, who will ploco
them In the doslred position und sink
thom to the nocessary depth in the
sand. During strong ebb tide the ex-
plosions will be confined to tho outer
side of tho bar, so that the sand, when
loosonod from Its compact state, will
bo woshod out into deop wator by tho
forco of tho outgoing tldo. When tho
flood tide bets in tho work will bo ro
moved to tho innor side of the bar, and
tho sand on that side blown up so that
it can bo washed Into deep water In
