THE WIDOW NOT WELL ENOUGH TO BE PRESENT A MARVELOUS TRIBUTE OF FLOWERS. TOWDER SMOKE FROM THE WAR SHU'S FLOATS OVER THE SCENE, AND GEN. LOGAN MAKES A SPEECH. The same apparently endless acres cf people, the same shouting huck sters lining the walks in all direc tions, the same heat and dust that were features of the funeral ceremo nies over Gen. Grant's remains in Bivereide Part on the Gth of last August were features of the Decora tion Day ceremonies over the dead soldier's grave yesterday afternoon. Some said 50,000 people were pres ent, and Eome said there were at least 75,000; nobody estimated un der 40,OUO. One standing on the platform by the tomb saw, as far as trie eye could reach, a sea of hats, uuibrelJsis, and paraso'9 of all the colors of the rain bow. The trees swarmed with men and boys clinging like clusters of fruit to every boueh that would hold them, and a half finished house just without the bounds of the park was black with people, who perched themselves recklessly in all sorts of dangerous places. They caught the eye of Inspector Steers, who, with 300 men and police Capts. Court wright, Hooker, Robbins, Siebert, and Sanders, was keeping the crowd in order. The Inspector ordered the crowd down from the upper row of rafters, and a solitary policeman occupied that lofty elevation during the rest of the afternoon. A snarp dash of rain in the morn ing did not lay the duet, and the Dare ground about the tomb was soon beaten by the trampling feet into an impalpable powder, which filled the air and made the sunlight dim and red. The tomb itself wag surrounded by a high canvas wall, above which, however, the great mountain of flowers towered, and could be seen from all directions. To make the resemblance to the scene at the funeral complete, there was even the same tedious deiav in the arrival of the procession. It had been arranged that the steamer Grand Republic, having on board Senator Logan, and U. S. Grant Post, G. A. li., which was to have charge of the ceremonies, would leave Jewell's wharf,Brooklyn, touch at West Twcntv-?ecor.d street, and take President Cleveland aboard, and then go direct to the park, arriv ing there in time to begin the ser vices at 2 o'clock. The President's decision not to be present did not alter this plan, but it was 3: -10 in the atternoon beiore Oen. Logan got to the stand. The Grand Republic, crowded like a basket of eggs, landed at the foot of 129th street where the pro cession formed, and, headed by Ar bucales band, in red caps, blue coats and white trousers, and play ing Chopin s funeral march, started on its slow walk to the tomb. At the right of the speakers' stand cn the platform was a space reserv ed lor the Grant familv. Col. Fred erick Grant, with his strikingly beautiful wife aud his little daugh ter Julia, sat near the front, and grouped around them were U. S. Grant, Jr., with his wife and child, Jesse Grant, ako with his wife and his little girl Nellie, Mr. Jeese Grant sat on the front row of seats iu the space reserved for the family, and immediately behind blufi. Gen. Sheridan, who, with Gen. Schofield end Gen. Sickles, had arrived soon after 2 o'clock Gens. Sheridan and Schofield were in full uniform, and Gen. Sheridan looked the picture of vigor and health. Mrs. Grant, the General's widow, was not present. Her health has not been very good of late, and it was feared she would not be able to stand the strain. Rot-coe Conkling, gray headed ard stately, with the inevitable blue llowing necktie, ar rived at 20 minutes to 3, and was greeted by Color el Frederick Grant, and afterward shock hands with all the members of the Grant family. TLeie j was no more noticeable face in all the group around the Grants than that of Mrs. John A. Ixigan. Her keen black eyes, strong features and heavy n il of iron-gray hair, brushed boldly back from her hich forehead, would attract atten tion to her in any assemblage. She talked earnestly with Senator Con kling for several minutes. Potter Palmer of Chicago and his wife, who is a sister of the beautiful Mrs. Fred erick Gratt. were alfo in the Grant family group, with Mrs. II. H. Hon ore. Dr. fchrady and his daughter. Gens. Xavarjo and Eufus Ingalls. Mrs. Judge Dent nd Mrs. Cor bin, sister-in-law of Gen. GranL All the ladies of the Grant family were in deep mourning, and kept their heavy crape veils over their laces most of the time. Col. Frederick, Jesse and U.S. Grant, worecrape on their hats, and tbe children were in black. Gen. Logan W8S warmly greeted when be ascended the platform. He wore a broadcloth frock coat, as black as his long inky hair, and he sat down behind the Rev. Dr. Storrs and Bishop Harris. Immediately behind Senator Logan eat Lieut- Gov. Jones, his long flowing iron- gray monstacbe even more formida- ble than the Senator's. Swarthy 1 omer Senor Romeo sat near Col. Frederick I McGregor," stretching across the de Grant. sign. Under this was "Grant"' in There was almost a iilence for a j big letters. Four big yellow stars time in the immediate vicinity of the '' signified Gen. Grant's rank. On stand, though the hoarse shouting of the distant nacksten and the mur muring of the restless people on tbe outskirts of tho crowd who were try ing to better their positions came up distinctly. At last the first faint notes of the solemn funeral march were heard, and then the minute guns from the men-of-wir down on the river under the hill began. It seemed an interminable time after the distant strains of the funer. al march were heard before the head of the procession came in sight, At last the battallion of veteran Brook lyn police with Carjt McKelvey at their head appeared. I hey were on horseback. Then above tbe heads of the enormous crowd, which was motionless and as still as death now, there came in sight the thirteen bat tle flags of tho U. S. Grant Grand Ar my Post. They were all in a group and each flag was wrapped tightly arounu its stave, Srom tne top oi which streamed long trailing strips cf crape which hung motionless in the perfectly dead air. Tne smoke from tne gunf of the war ships had floated up over the brow of the hill aud was trailing la zily across the park when tbe leading band stopped in lront ot tne to;ui and continued the iwrlancboiy strains ol the funeral march. The procession slowly filed into sight and drew up in line near tbe bank of the river. Following the battal ion of police came Marshal Henry W. Knight and staff, all on foot, and the Marshal resplendent in a uni form in which yellow was a conspic uous feature. Then came the staff of Gen. Isaac S. Catlin, Grand Mar shal of Kings county, and after them trim Company li, ot tne rennsyi vania State Fenciblce, wearing white trousers dark blue coaU, and heavy bearskin haU. There was then a detachment of U. S. Marines from the North Atlantic Squadron, and alter them Grant Post, which 6tood guard over the remains at Mt. Mc Gregor and accompanied them to this city. George G. Meade Post, No. 1, from Philadelphia, with a line band and a nattv hfe and drum eorp composed of the sons of veterans, were conspicuous in the lice. There came after them scores of delega tions representing Grand Army posts from all over the country, even lrom as tar as California. A large 6pace with benches ar ranged in close rows had been re served lor the brand Army men, and into this they hied. The front seats were occupied by the Amphicn Singing Club 100 ttrong and pro vided with an organ. Back of them sat Lafayette Poht, G. A. R., mem bers of which acted as ushers. As soon as ali were seated, the canvas screen around the tomb was sudden ly dropped, and ihe bewildering mass of floral devices fctood revealed to the crowd in the distauce. which raised a faint and quickly suppress ed cheer. The flowers were a won deriul eight. The floral front was 50 feet long. Firt to catch the eye was a wooden horse covered with flower3 and fully caparisoned. It was from California. A rider in flowers had sat on tbe hore, but the flowers were withered and tbe rider had been taken off. Theempty sad dle was better. From President Cleveland were a hydrangea in a pot on tbe left of the tomb, and also on the right a wreath of red and white roses, 2 feet in diameter, with a bar across it en which were the words "U. S. Grant." Platforms laden with flowers flanked the tomb right and left. On the platform to the left was an arbor vitae in a gray tub on which were tbe words in blue letters : Ix'tus bave peace. It. E. lee. lief Camp, No. 1, Confederate Kiclimond, Va., May HO, lt-S'i. From Ite yeterana. At the base of the tree were half a dozen Southern flowers. Beautiful and ornate designs were sent from Massachusetts, Michigan, Pennsylvania Delaware, Missouri, Montana, Minnesota, and Illinois. From Bermuda were two palms in tubs, and from Santa Fe a thriving cactus. From St. John, N. B., came a beautiful shaft, twelve feet high, covered on its four sides with arbor vitae twigs. An evergreen wreath, slipped halfway down on the shaft, had 37 etrs in while immortelle in it, and on the base in white immor telles were the initials "U, S. G." The pupils of the public schools of San Francisco sent a floral pillow. Conspicuous was a floral urn, two feet high, from the Virginia State Department of the Grand Army. Tbe Chinese Minister's gift was a pyramid crown with red rosea. On the front in red immortelles on a white ground was the legend "Chi na's Affection lor America's Illusti- ous amor. Un the left lace was a Chinese fltig with a blue dragon in a yellow field and on the right face an American flag. Senor Romeo's testimonial was a pillow f red roses on which were croMeed twerds, the hilld ot red pinks and the blades of white pinks. A green laurel wreath bound the swords together. This stood on one side of the door of the tomb. On the ether tide was a floral chair with the words in flowers, "Compliments of Grant Guards." In front of the tom b was a floral cannon with a dove perching on the mouth. On the root of tbe tomb was a dove with outstretched wings bearing an olive branch. It was the gift of Mrs. Barrios, widow of Gen. Barrios. Back of the designs, and forming an effective background was a forest of tree palms from the Central Park Conservatory. The in terior of tbe tomb was eo filled with growing plants and vines and the gilts of the Grant family that the steel casket could not be seen. The frout of the tomb was covered with English ivy and smilax. Over the door was the legend, "Faithful Unto Detth." The largest floral design was eent by the Grant Post of Bay City, Mich It was eight feet high and six feet ; wide. At the top waa a white dove on a semicircular bar, bearing the word "Peace" in red immortelles en a background of white. Below were the words "Appomattox" and Mt set ESTABLI8HED 1827.

The Bay " City florist was a month in building tho 6 true tare. Major Corwin, Chairman of the U. 3. Grant Pest committee, called the assembly to order and then the Grand Army ritual was read by Commander J. P. Howatt The Am phion Society sang "Nearer My God to Thee," the sweet strains of the hymn coming back faintly in echoes from the high bills over the river and accentuated by the booming minute guns, which had now thrown a thin veil of light-blue smoke over all the scene. Tht Rev. Dr. Storrs made a prayer snd after the Amphion Society had sung the hymn "Ye Heroes Who Immortal Live," Major Corwin in troduced as tbe orator ot tbe occa sion. GENERAL LOGAN S SPEECH. Senator Logan began his address with a reference to the pessimistic doctrine that "Republics are un grateful," and indignantly denied the broad declaration. Continuing, he said : " Millions of people have gathered to-day to sing pa-ans of gratitude to their sleeping benefiactors, and with one loud voice to chant anthems of sweet appreciation, that may rise from earth to heaven like " Sabean odors from tbe spicy shore Of Araby the blest." "To be an American citizen offici ating in a service of gratitude ta the fallen defenders of his country is but second to being numbered among those to whom this homage is ren dered. No score lofty acts are to be found in the records of authentic history than the noble sacrifices of the American soldier upon the field of battle and the votive offerings of his countrymen upon tne holy altar of bis memory." After passing reference to the dif ference between the heroes of Ther mopylae who gave their lives in sim ple obedience to Spartan law, and tbe soldiers of the Union, who died in defense of a great principle, Gen eral Logan devoted the remainder of his oration to his eulogy of GranL " The silent chief, whose work is destined to influence posterity to the latest syllable of recorded time, has gone to his couch, and neither the call of his country, nor the siren beckoning ot earthJy glory will or break the soundness of his sleep up on this hither side of eternity. But, my mends, the supreme work that our now sleeping hero performed will endure until the wrecking of the humaa race shall leave this planet a mere counterpoise of the other mighty worlds that pursue their ceaseless roll around the blazing orb of light and day, waiting their ap pointed time to cast themselves into their tire's arms. grant's star of destiny. " In the dark hours of 1SG1 a star arose in the heavens that, beginning its flight from Belmont,took within its orbit Fort Henry and Fort Don elson, Pittsburgh Landing, Corinth, Port Gibson, Raymond, Jackson, Champion Hills, Black River and Vicksburg, where for a short time it paused. Renewing its rapid course, it winged its way to Lookout Moun tain and to Mission Ridge, when it came to rest directly over the bead of the man whose name had been written in the book of Fate as tbe instrument to 6natch from destruc tion the offspring of all tbe preceding ages. r rom the momeni that Grant was iu vested with the supreme command the triumph of the Union arms he came a simple question of time. An unlooked for chance might post pone it, but as well might it be at tempted to turn the avalanche in its overwhelming crash as to avert the force of those irresistible hosts that undei the direction of an appointed geiiiud, were fatally enveloping the armies of resistance. From Chatta nooga, to Atlanta, and from the Wil derness to Richmond, some of tbe moat brilliant military movements, aud many of the most gallant battles ever fought adorned the Union Gen eralshiu and arms. The silent com mander was a sphinx, but he was likewise an oracle ; he was a plain, unpretending man, but also a sol dier, with a skill of profession, a rare courage, a cool head, a quickness of judgment, a celerity of decision and a rapidity of movement that made him wholly invincible. 44 When Shakespeare wrote of Jul ius CfT-iar: 'He WbS the foremost man of all this world,' Grant had not then lived." The orator next compared the mil itary career of Grant with that of the other great soldiers of the world. Cyrus, Alexander, Hannibal, Casar. Pompey, Scipio, Frederick the Great, Napoleon and Wellington were each considered in turn, and the weak nesses of each, either as soldier or statesman, were indicated. Then General Logan continued thus: GREATER THAN ALL OTHERS. 44 Men and women of America ! In our generation a man has lived great enough as a military leader to sub due a force of insurrection that could have annihilated any army of tht world from the time of Cyrus down to that of Napoleon. A man has lived, who, weighed with the enor mous results flowing from his work into the ramifications of the un known future, was immeasurably greater than Cyrus, above Aiexaiider grander than Ctesar, supreme over Pompey, Hannibal and Scipio ; tow ering among Charlemange, the Prince ot Orange, Frederick the Great Wellington and Napoleon, and whose name is not to be men tioned in connection with those of Miltiades and Sulla. In all authen tic mililary history, the work of but one individual approaches that of Grant Two names should be chis eled upon the majestic column that. leaping from the basks of tbe Po tomac, rears its graceful bead far in to clouds, the living embassador from a grateful people to the borders of the undiscovered country, to which both soldiers have gone Washington and Grant The war riors of liberty 1 One its father and the other its latest defender." As the speaker reached his peror ation he displayed more than his usual eloquence. In conclusion he invoked the spirit of the great lead er in these words : "Oh I mighty agent of a grateful people, we are here to do you honor. Oh ! inspired genius, we come to render testimony of the beneficence of your work. Noble citizen, kind husband, loving father, good friend, great captain, chosen agent! the work thou hast done will shine from the firmament as a new star to light the coming generation. Its ray shall pale the rich troopers of the night, and forever flash with undiminished fire in presence of the god of day. Until another year shall reawaken the flowers and fill the vernal air with incense, we leave thee with the faithful spirits that guard thy rest ad smile about thy tomb. There was such a breaking away ef people on the conclusion tf Lo gan s speech that the rest ol the programme was gone through with amidst confusion. It all ended about 5.30 o'clock, when the bugle sounded "taps" and the throng rushed madly down the hill like an ariwy in dismay. Thus all wps over, and he that slept the sleep thai knows no waking was left alone once more beneath the banks of fitjwerrj, with a sentinel pacing by his tomb as his solitary guardian. The Flower Garden aad Lawn in June Run the lawn mower as often as once a week, or oftener if the rapid growth of grass requires it. In a dry time mow less frequently. It is a good plan to have the e-d-es of beds in the lawn cut sloping, as this will allow them to be kept in order more easily. Annuls sown now will make a fine display late in the season. Coleuses and similar "fol iage plants," may now be planted in beds in the lawn. Cannas and tube roses should now be planted. Ever lasting flowers, so called, will be needed nt Christmas, and it will be well to provide for the demand by sowing seeds of helichruysums, rhcdar.thes, and others. Weeds, whether in the lawn or on the bor der, must be kept in subjection. A sharp, stiff knife, that will cut the roots well eelow the surface, is a mot useful implement for weeding in the garden. Greenhouse plants, a a rule, are set out of doors but thry should not be given over to neglect. If the pots are not set upon a pavement, provide a layer of coal ashes-, that worms may not enter. Plants thus placed for the summer muet have all needed water; they mut not he overrun by insects, nor should their roots be burned by the heating of the sun against the pots. Indeed, plants that are set out re quire as much, if not rather more care, than if they had been left in side. Guard against injury by dogs. Exercise Dr. Parks has calculated that the amount of exercise a sedentiry man in health snomd take is equal to nine miles a day upon level ground. The amount of walking done in walking about the Louse, and other domestic duties, may probably be put down as three miles, which will leave only a walk of six miles per diem on level ground. If the ground is hill v this will be still more reduc ed, so that it certainly does not seem an excessive amount to advise. The proper quantity must, however, vary ereatly with circumstances. Females for example, will not take as much as men. In winter more may be taken than in summer. In youth. when the body is undergoing its most active development, care must be taken that every muscle is exer cised in its turn. Hence the free use of gvmuaatics. eames and sports at this age is most beneficial. In advanced lift-, the power and incli nation for exercise both fail, but even then every effort should be V) prevail upon the individual to take some amount of exercise, and to postpone the evil day when he will become completely bed-ridden. Such an amount of exercise is in all case neeesjsarv as will keep the muscels in good health and enable them to meet the physical require ments of thu rest of the body. The rule, howeyer, in applicable tovaria tion oik! can be considered only as a general estimate. An Effective Prayer. Some time ago, as tbe story runs, W. W. Erwin, the criminal lawyer, pressed for a little change, dropped into the office of D. W. Ingersolland aked him for the loan ot 5. Mr. Ingersoll declined to make the ad vance, but suggested that, instead, it Mr.Srwin would go into the base ment with him, he would pray for him. Mr. Erwin consented, and the two went into the depths, where on bended knee Ingersoll prayed long and well for his brother man. When I he had concluded Erwin said, "Now I'll pray." Mr. Erwin's prayer was a peculiar one. It was delivered at the top of his voice, and consisted of an exhor tation to the Lord to direct Ingersoll how to dispose of his vast wealth wisely. ( As he warmed up the pitch of his voice raised materially, and Mr. Ingersoll grew nervous, and urg ed him not to pray so loud, aa it would bring those upstairs down, was of no avail. The exhortation grew more fervent, and finally be came howls. Then Ingersoll, with a despairing exclamation, sprang to his feet and said: "Stop praying, Erwin ; here's your 85." The de votions ended at once. St. Paul Pioneer Prett. A Teutonic coroner in an Ohio town was called upon the other day to "sit on" the case of a man who had been killed in an iron mill. In order to impress the jury with his honesty, be began his address as follows : 44 Scbentlemen, I hef no benonal interest in dis case. I hef been abbroached neder by der man ufacturers nor de deceased." So far as we know Jonah was mads the first Secretary of the Interior. ' - ' w ' ' .tie A Rival of the Telephone. A correspondent of the New York Graphic, writing from Washington, says: Professor Alexander Graham Bell and his cousin, Dr. Chichester Bell, have recently made a very re markable discovery, which they think is quite as important as the transmission of the tones of the hu man voice through the telephone, They have discovered that a falling jet of water cr a flame of gas burn ing in a room reproduces every word spoken and every sound uttered within a given distance. When two people join in conversation in a room in the evening the gas which burns above their heads repeats every word they say, and sounds uttered in the vicinity of flowing water pro duce vibrations. Ta a reporter of a local paper Professor Bell showed a glass disk, upon which appeared a spiral streak composed ot tiny little shades placed together or fart her apart to make up the variation of intensity. The sur face was one of depression and ele vation. This Professor Bell said, represented sound waves. When the plate was revolved upon a pivot and the depressions and elevations conveyed to the ear by a microphone there was a repetition ef the conver sation then recorded as distinct as when it waa delivered. The undu late safely representing sound waves was produced by photography. Professor Bell says that if any one will go to a water-pipe and turn ou the faucet so that the water will full in a stream to the ground, that wa ter can be made to report the con versation taking place in its pres ence, and a stream register every sound within hearing of it Professor Bell considers this dis covery quite aa important as that of the telephone, and his cousin, Chich ester Bell has gone to Lurope fer the purpose of bringing it before scientific men in England and on the Continent. Patents have alreailv been obtained in all the principal countries F both conti nents. The great ject of the in ventor was to record Ly photogra phy or otherwie the vibration in the jet of water which correspond to soundwaves; the result of words spoken in the vicinity; to keep the voice on record, bottled up, as it were, for any length of time, and then, when called upon, to let the record peak. This, Mr. Bell says, has been accomplished. The water, or liquid of whatever kind it may be, is colored with bichromate of potash. If it were perfectly clear it would not answer, because the light used in photographing would pai through without resistance and no record would be made on the tablet. The water is colored for photograph ing, and the jet is made to fail ob liquely on a glass plate. The water spreads itself on the glass plate and runs off. It is the water so spread out that it is to be photographed as it pa.-ses. Words spoken cause the jot of water to vibrate,the vibrations in the jet cause coi responding vil. ra tions in the film of water as it breaks and spreads on the plate glass and runs off. A ray ol light is passed through that film and through the glass plate to a sonsitive tablet be hind. The sensitive tablet receives the impression of every vibration while the speaking continues, the jet keeps running, the film keeps passing over the plate, the recording table moving, and the light passing through film to the tible makes a record of the speech far more accu rate than any verbatim report. These scientists do not consider their invention perfect, but they are at work improving it. Former While House Wedding. The White House has been the scene of several weddings, each and all cf more or less display. Proba bly the wedding of Nellie Grant and Algernon Sartoris, on May 21, 1S74, was tho most brilliant of tbe half dozen taken place there. The East Room ww the scene, and the pair stood under an immense floral bell. with a background of flowers filling the big east window. There were six bridesmaids and a distinguished company.

The wedding was in ihe Blue Parlor, decorated with flowers, and here also the bride etond under a ht-11 of flowers. To go hack to the be ginning of the White House wed dings, the first one was in President Madison's time, when Miss Todd, a relative of Mrs. Madison, was Ihe bride, and John G.

The Chieftain of Tammany Gone to UU Account. New York, June 1. John Kelly, the Tammany Chieftain, died this evening. Mr. Kelly had been ill for several months. During the last few weeks he seemed to feel com paratively well, but on Sunday last, at 8 P. M., he was taken with an at tack of fainting, and became weaker afterward. Monday he was worse, but this morning an improvement was apparent At noon, however, he commenced to sink, and the ap proach of the end was realized. Mr. Kelly's death was painless, although he was conscious ta the last Only Mrs. Kelly and her two children were present when the patient pass ed away. Mrs. Kelly was prostrated by the blow, and is too ill to see anybody, it was not for several hours after Mr. Kellv's death that the fact was generally known. In fact, promi nent leaders at Tammany Hail were not aware of it, until they were in formed by reporters. At S:30 p. m. Police Justice Gorman, Treasurer of Tammany Hall, and one of Mr. Kelly's oldest and closest personal and political friends, who lives only two blocks from the late ehiatttain s residence, did not know that Mr. Kelly was dead. When the con firmed news spread throughout the city, it was too late for 1'ammany Hall or any of. the district associa tions except that of tne Fourtn ward to meet and pass resolutions of regret During the earlv evening there were few visitors at the house of mourning. Among those who did call were Grand hachetn and ex Congressman P. Henry Dugro, Po lice Justices Duffy and Gorman, and Charities Commissioner Bren uhu who will superintend the fu neral arrangements for the family. The sexton of the Fifth Avenue Ro man Catholic Cathedral took charge of the body. Late this evening Mr. Brenuun announced that the funeral would take i,Iace at the cathedral, on Sat urday. A solemn requiem mass will be celebrated over the remains. Archbishop Corrigan, who called at the house during the evening, will officiate. From Mrs. Kelly Commissioner Brennan learned the incidents mark ing Mr. Kelly's closing hours. He knew he was about to die, and was perfectly resigned. " I have always tried to live as a good Catholic," he said, "and I wish to die a good Catholic. I wish for the services of the church when I am dead, but I want no demonstration no display. I want my funeral to be plain and simple." Undertaker Hart will embalm the remains, and they will be buried in Calvary Cemetery, in the plot where lie the remains of Mr. Kellv's first wife, and tho children of whom she was the mother. An Imaginative Georgian Story. A gentleman who lives in the eastern part of this county tells one of those that few people will believe "without seeing it" He Bays that he was out fox-hunting, and when the cha-e was at the height of its ex citement his horse ran into an old well thirty feet deep. The horse was instantly killed by the fall, but the rider was unhurt The walls of the well had caved in at the bottom a distance of three or four feet, and the gentlmau says this prevented getting out by disging footholds, realizing his situation, he began to call upon help at tbe top of his voice, but no assistance came. He was compelled to remain in the well all night, nr.d the next morning the stench arising from the carcass of the dead horse was anything but pleasant, and he noticed that the buzzards were soaring over the spot Finally the buzzards began to alight in the well, and it was then that a bright idea struck him. He decided to catch the buzzards by the legs as they came down until he had a hufiicient number to carry him out That he -did, and when he had caught as many as his hands would hold, he "ehooed"at them, and they flew up, carrying him out of the well. But still the fox-hunter was in a dilemma. The buzzards flew up so rapidly that he couid not turn them loose when he reached the top with out falling back in the welL Up ward tbe buzzards flew with their human freight and the fox-hunter beuaii to despair of his life after all. When about one hundred yards above the grcund the fox-hunter was jtiit about to let go and fall, when he was struck by another bright idea. He decided to let go one buzzard at a time until his weight would pull them downward. Acting upon this plan, he was soon landed safeiy upon the ground. The gentleman who tells this story tells it in all seriousness, and as though he actually believes it true, but it will be a colder day than any we had during the recent blizzard beiore he can get anybody else to believe it When Shall we go to Bed ? It will never do for us to adopt a universal plan to refresh man, and send all the world to bed at nine o'clock. Civilization has made too great strides for that. Because some j ujcii tiiiiuubruuuic cacucuicu auu . j t. i are worn to a thread mentally and unable to sleep a wink after an evening gathering of friends or the opera, or the theatre, shall we sit in judgment and condemn all these bounds, no doubt, are healthful. ben any one ot them become an absorbing passion, then it is that it works destruction on men, soul and body.

That Lime only can be serenely happy where the daily homely duties are well done not intermittently, not in a whirl wind of bewildering activity that scares the male population from the scene, but I need not say how; I appeal to the inuer consciousness of woman. What dignity, what beauty and delight it gives our hum blest work to think of it as the es sential to the peace and comfort of our EDg.ish homes, and as enabling those to labor undisturbed who win our bread, and create our literature, and rule and teich our people. And verily women need some such consolation. Consider how much of their work perishes in the day that is done, and has all to bo repeated day after day, and then say whether it is matter for great marvel that some of them have been ill-advised enough to talk occasionally about their "narrow sphere." The changes are rung on washing, and ironing, and cleaning, and mending days, while every morning the same familiar objects demand washing or dusting, that have been washed or dusted thousands of times before. Tangible results are not what woman chietiy accomplishes, and she often works long and hard without hav ing "anything to show" in the end. There is'poetry in her life, it is true, but there is an enormous amount of prose. And sometimes I wi.h, when a man expresses horror at some wo man's escaping from her housework to a wider field of action, that ho would try a long-continued eour3e of dusting, washing up, and darning stockings, and see if he ever found it at ali monotonous. Manners for Boys. In the street Hat lifted when saying "Good bye," or "How do you do ?' Also when offering a lady a seat or acknowledging a favor. Keep step with any one you walk with. Always precede a lady up stairs, but ask if yon shall preeede her through a crowd or public place. At the street door Hat off the moment yoa enter a house or pri vate office. Let a ladv pass first always, unless she ask3 you to precede her. In the parlor Stand till every la dy in the room, also older people, are seated. Rise if a iady enters a room after you are seated, and ant! stand till she is seated. Look people straight in the face when they are speaking to you. Let ladies pass through a door first, standing aside for them. In the dining room Take your seat after ladies and elders. Never play with your knife, ring or spoon. Do cot take your napkin up in a bunch in your hand. Eat as fast or as slow as others, and finish the course when they do. Do not aek to be excused before the others, unless the reassn is im perative. Rise when ladies leave the room, and stand till they are out Gootl F.nongh for Him A Narrative told by Abraham Lincoln. An old gentleman who was oa in timate terms at the White House during the war, said to the Boston Traveller's correspondent the other day: "Stories about Lincoln are plenty enough, but I will tell you one that I can vouch for as being true, and which, as far as my knowl edge is concerned, has never been in print One of Lincoln's most es teemed friends was old ex-Governor Tod, of Ohio. He was a quaint old character, and Lincoln loved him for his honesty, ability and native shrewdness. At one time he thought of Tod in connection with the Sec retaryship of the Treasury, but af terwards he gave him a foreign mis sion. One evening when Tod was in town Lincoln invited him over to the White House. They had achat together, when Lincoln finally said : 'Lok here. Tod, how is it that you spell your name with only one dt I married a Tcdd, but she spelled her name with two d.. All of her relatives do the same. You are the only Tod I ever saw who spelled his name with so few letters." Old Tod looked at Lincoln for a moment in his peculiar quizzing manner, and then replied: "Mr. President, God spells his name with only one d, and what is good enough for God is good enough for me. Lincoln used to r.peat this story to some of his more intimate friends, and every time be did so bo would laugh until the tears raa down over that furrow ed but grand face." Items of Interest.
