Whoe'er (or freed -m lights and falls, his
fame no blight shall know.
As long as through heaven's free expanse
the breezes freely blow;
As long as in the forest wild the green
leaves flutter free,
As long as rivers, mountain born, flow
freely to the sea;
As long as free the eagle's wing exalting
cleaves the skies;
As long as from a freeman's heart a free
man's breath doth rise
Whoe'er for freedom fights and falls, bis
fame no blight shall know.
As long as .-pirits of the free through earth
and air shall go
Through eartii and air a spirit band of
heroes moves always;
'Tis near us at the dead of night and in the
noontide's blaze,
ID the Storm that levels towering pines
and in the breeze that waves
With low and gentle breath the grass up
on our father's graves.
There's a cradle .» the bounds of Hellas
broad and fair,
But the spirit of our fr«e-born sires is sure
ly hovering there.
It breathes in dreams ot fairy-land upon
the infant's brain.
And in 1 is first si. ep dedicates the child to
manhood's pain;
Itc amnions lures the youth to stand,
wit a nev. born joy possessed
Where once a freeman fell, and there it
fires his thrilling breast;
And a shudder runs through all his frame;
he knows not if it be
A throb of rapture, or the first sharp pang
of agony.
Come swell our banners to the breeze,
thou sacred spirit band,
Give wings to every warrior's foot and
nerve to every hand.
We go to strike for freedom, to break the
oppressor's rod,
We go to battle ant', to death for oar coun
try and oar God.
Yo are with us; we hear your wings, we
hear in magic tone
Your .-pint voice the paean swe'l and
mingle with our own.
Ye are with us; ye throng around, —jou
from Thermopylae,
You lrom tho verdant Marathon, yon from
the azure sea,
By the cloud-capped rocks of Mykale at
Salami-i —all you
From field and forest, mount and glen,
the land of Hellas through,
Whoe'er for freedom fights and tails, his
lame n*< blight shall know
As long aa though heaven's free expanse
the breezes freely blow;
As long as in the forest wild the green
leaves flutter free;
A. long as rivers, mountain born, roll
freely to the sea;
A long as free the e igle's wing exulting
cleaves the skies;
As long as fiom a freeman's heart a free
man's breath doth rise.

and their three children. Tneir married
life »>f late hu not been very harmonious
and after a separation, Mrs. Stepp return
ed homo recently anj made buckwheat
cakes for the family. In the latter she

Rev. Leighton E. Eckart, a Presbyter
ian minister of Easton. Pa. ha 3 struck lor
a reduction of wages. He is now receiv
ing $2,500 a year with a parsonage, and
si«jf the clinreh cannot afford to pay him
over $2,000. He thereforj asks to have
his salary cut SSOO. Th:s is probably the
first case on record of a man striking for
lower wages.
The Clarion Jacksonian says the farmers
,in some parts of that county have taken to
what is to us a novel way of hulking corn.
Th9y run it through a common threshing
machiDe with most of the concaves taken
out. Mr. B. M Shirey of Curllsville told
us that he threshed 115 bushels and is very
rnuca pleased with the results. The corn
a* shelled is clean of dirt and cobs, ar.d
the fodder left iu gooi! .-hape for feeding.
Among a lot of potatoes dug at the Mor
ganza Reform School was oue which is a
valuable curio. The potato was the exact
size and image of a man's hand. Each
finger was separate and perfect, and was
so formed that the knuckles resembled
those of a human hand. The palm of the
hand, too, was perfectly represented on
the reverse side. Va'uable offers for this
freak of nature have btt-n refused. It will
be preserved in alcohol.
Tuesday evening ot this week fire broke
out in the Rezno Building in Mercer and
in a few miuules had spread so rapidly that
it was feared that that ntiro town would
be burned. A call was sent to Greenville
for assistance, but before it arrived the
fire was under control. Tha following
were dainageJ most: W. D. Keck and J.
C. Logan's warehousa, Lynch & Ball's
lirery and carriage works. Dr. B. A. Rides
bam. Dr. Heath's barn, The Bahjiser
wool warehouse was buined. The loss is
estemated at $20,000; nearly all the burned
buildings were insured. No one was in
jured. The local fire lighters desprve cred
it for the admirable manner in which
they handled the conflagration.
Alderman Brinker, of Allegheny, form
erly of Butler, proprses making some
trouble for certain officials of that city,
be is quoted as follows: "It is the pnrpose
of myself and friends to institute quo war
ranto proceeding.) in court to compell the
heads of all the city departments to show
cause why they should further held office.
We claim they have been illegally olected
aud thereforo cannot, continue to hold of
fice. "We have had the very best legal
opiriion as to the status of the present office
holder, and we find that when the late
councils elected the heads of departments
for four years tney violated the law.

The -porting Craze. November 26.
The "Sporting Craze" a', the Cambris
Theater last evening was greeted with a
; large audience and judging from the ap
i plause the company more than filled their
; promises. Tbe comedy is like a.l farces—
j written to represent specialty people, and
i "Sporting Craze' ha- surely plect vof their,
j George 11. Adams as "Ducky" made a de
cided hit, his witty savings and fanny falls
receiving well merited applause. Ht* ac
robatic teats on the -tilts were wonderful.
Wiilitui Courtright. of "flewr flewy" fame,
made an instantaneous hit as - John Reu
ben," the sporting farmer. His specialty
of"Stuttering John" kept tne audience in
one constant roar. Carlan and Clark, the
German comedians, are among the best
ever seen in this city and received four en
cores. The Adams sisters are very clever
dancers. Misg Emma DeCastro, the
charming soibrette, sang herself in to popu
larity with the audience at once in her
negro melodies. Frank Farly the all
around a'Mete. gave one of the best and
most scientific exhibitions of bag punching
ever seen in this city. All in all it is a
"bang up" show and s! ould be patronized
by all lovers of comedy. One is bound to
laugh—one cannot help it.
