    THE THREE BIRDS.
"Fly over the mountains,'' I said to the itove,
"O'er the fields of barley and hav.
And bring me the talisman flower of Love."
But the dove sighed, "It's too far awayi"
To tho eagle I said, "On thy valor I count
That ehall steal mo Love's flame from tho
sky;
Spread thy pinions to reach it, and heaven
ward mount!"
But the eagle replied, "It's too high!"
To the vulture I cried: "What is left wilt thou
spare
Of this heart that can stilt hope and wait?
Then tear out the rest, for her image dwells
therel"
But the vulture mode answer, "Too late!"
—Florence Hennlker in Temple Bar,
MR. SMITH'S PLAN.
When Augustus Smith was engaged
as a clerk by the great banking firm of
Brown & Blue he did not show any of
the ingenious traits of character that
subsequently made him famous. He
was just an ordinary appearing young
man and rather pale. He had a pair of
shrewd, sharp gray eyes that might ex
press much or little, just as it happened.
Young Smith worked hard and faith
fully at his desk for a long time before
he happened to come under the notice of
the senior member of the firm. Brown
was a man who fully realized liis posi
tion in the financial and social world,
and was never better pleased than when
others did the same.
It did not take Smith long to discover
his employer's weakness. And when he
had discovered it he resolved to make
use of it to his own advantage. Conse
quently he managed affairs so that he
was obliged to come in direct contact
with the senior member of the firm.
That gentleman took no particular no
tice of the young man at the time, but
Smith did not despair. He contrived
other little schemes whereby it became
necessary for him to speak with the old
gentleman, and the result was that
Brown soon knew and began to notice
him.
Smith made the most of those encoun
ters, so that in a comparatively short
time Brown began to think that Smith
was a promising young man. He never
made any boasts or took advantage of
the senior member's regard, so that it
only increased with time. Small wonder
was it then that when Brown's private
secretary died he chose Mr. Smith out of
all his employees to fill the place. It was
in his capacity as private secretary that
Smith first called at his employer's home.
Smith noted the evidences of wealth and
woqdered when he, too, should be able
to maintain such an establishment.
One evening Smith accompanied his
employer home from the office. A
knotty financial problem had come up
late in the day which needed to be set
tled before the next day. Brown did
not care to attack the matter by him
self. Blue was out of town, and there
was no one left for him to call upon but
Smith. And had he but acknowledged
it to himself he believed that Smith's
brain would work quicker and clearer
than that of any one else connected with
the place.
That was an eventful evening for
Smith. In the first place he met the
banker's daughter, and, having met her,
immediately lost his heart. But he did
not lose his head, which was one of the
strongest points in this young man's
composition. Smith had never been
known to lose his head under the most
trying circumstances. The present in
stance was no exception to the rule.
Smith's heart beat so hard he thought
every one in the room could hear it, but
Smith's brain was cool and calm and
calculating as ever.
Just what impression he made on the
yonng woman at that time he never
knew. But upon each subsequent call
he made at the house he was careful not
to lose any ground.
Matters went on thus until Smith had
declared his passion for his employer's
daughter. She was a little shocked at
first, though she had suspected that he
loved her. She told him that she could
not tell if she cared for him, and inti
mated to him that, as matters stood at
the time, it was rather presumptuous in
him to ask her. But she was so consid
erate as to promise not to tell her father
of what his private secretary had said
at least not then. Smith's spirits were
low, but his brain was active. And his
active brain evolved a scheme which
brought about the result he wished for.
He knew a pilot on one of the pilotboats
and proceeded forthwith to call upon
him and request a service. He told the
pilot what he vanted and that gentle
man readily fell into the scheme. Smith
also called upon the agent of a steam
ship line and obtained the agent's per
mission to sail down the bay on one of
the big steamships.
The same evening Smith called upon
his lady love. His visits at the house
never excited comment, Because he gen
erally managed to have some little busi
ness to perform in the library. He re
peated his declaration of love and asked
the object of his affections to marry
him. She refused. Smith uttered a fare
well and departed.
The next day he asked the senior
member of the firm for a month's vaca
tion. Brown was inquisitive, so the
yonng man told him that he wanted to
take a run over to Europe and see some
of the sights. Brown was somewhat
taken aback, for he always had an idea
that his private secretary spent every
cent he made about as fast as he could
make it. When Smith told him that he
had plenty of money with which to bear
the expenses of the trip the old banker
was more than pleased. He had been
thrifty himself and liked to see the
same trait in his employees. And Smith
wondered what his employer would say
if he knew his private secretary's finan
cial condition at that moment, for he
had nothing more than his week's salary
in his pocket.
Two days later all Smith's companions
in the office stood on one of the Ho
boken piers and shouted and screamed
and waved their lints at Smith as he
stood on the after deck of a biir ocean
liner. They had come to see him start
I for Europe. The last they saw of him
' that morning Smith was waving his
handkerchief to them from the vessel's
side. And all the while he smiled in
the happiest manner imaginable.
When the steamship had passed down
the Narrows and got out near Sandy
Hook a pilotboat came flying up to her
side. The steamship slackened speed,
the pilotboat ran close under the side,
and Smith was lowered to the deck of
the pilotboat, where his friend greeted
him warmly. An hour later and Smith
was ashore at Sandy Hook. From there
he made his way to the Atlantic High
lands, where, at a modest little hotel,
he engaged a room for a month.
It was a week later that the banker
was one night asked in a casual way by
his daughter as to the whereabouts of
Mr. Smith.
"Why, bless me," he replied; "1 for
got to tell you, didn't I? Smith has gone
to Europe. I wish he had remained at
home, because I miss him very much."
[ When Miss Brown had been informed
as to young Smith's whereabouts, she
was displeased. She did not really
think he could go off in that fashion,
with just a calm and formaigfoodby, she
told herself. The more she thought of
it the less she liked it. When three
weeks had gone by she was quite sure
she had never meant to say "no" to
Smith when he asked her to marry him.
"If he'd only come Sack!" she would
say to herself. "I never knew how much
I cared for him until he went away."
One evening her father came in and
said:
"Well, Smith will be back tomorrow
and I'm glad of it. The business hasn't
been run so smoothly since he went
away."
From her father Miss Brown learned
that the private secretary was expected
in on one of the French steamships, and
that most of the clerks in the banking
house were going to the dock to meet
him.
The French steamship which came up
past Sandy Hook that morning was
slowed down long enough to take aboard
a pilot. And with the pilot came aboard
another gentleman who, the pilot said,
was a friend of his. The other was
Smith, who had only that morning left
the small hotel at which lie had been
staying and got aboard the pilotboat.
He was attired in the costume usually
affected by tourists. He had grown
stouter and become bronzed during his
stay at the Highlands.
When Smith had been greeted by his
friends in the office the senior member
of the firm invited him to dinner. He
marked, and with approval, that Smith
seemed more anxions to talk about busi
ness than the places he had visited in
Europe.
They had reached the house, and
Smith was passing toward the library,
when he suddenly came face to face
with Miss Brown.
"Oh, Gus—Mr. Smith," said she,
startled for the moment into betraying
herself, "I'm so glad that you have
come back—because—because papa has
missed you so much," she added. But
Mr. Smith did not believe it was alto
gether on her father's account she was
glad he had returned, and later in the
evening inquired more particularly into I
the matter.
A short time afterward the signs on
the banking house were changed. There
after they read, "Brown, Blue & Smith,

He Mukei* Cyclones.
Professor Douglass has succeeded in
manufacturing miniature cyclones and
tornadoes by means of electricity, thus ]
proving the electrical character of the |
"prairie terrors." In carrying out his !
plans he suspended a large copper plate j
by silken threads and charged it from a !
battery. He then used arsenious acid
gas, whereupon the combination of gas ;
and electricity could be seen hanging j
from the under side of the plate in the I
form of a perfect funnel shaped cyclone |
cloud. When everything was ready 1
the professor swung the plate and the
miniature cyclone to and fro across a
table littered with matches, pieces of
paper, pens, pencils, etc. The lighter
objects were instantly sucked up, the
heavier scattered in all directions. The
effects were exactly those of destructive
cyclones.
These curious experiments explain cy
clonic phenomena. Low clouds become
charged with electricity, descend and
j form a connection with the earth. Then
j a violent electrical commotion ensues, 1
j finally settling into a whirl which con- ]
I timiea until an electric equilibrium is '
j established. —St. Louis Republic.
Ho Was a Real Yankee.
During a local option election in a
western town both sides had a challenge :
| committee at the polls to see that no I
| fradulent votes were sent in. A work
ingman with Celtic features offered his
vote. An "optionist" committeeman
challenged his vote. The Celt was
sworn to truthfully answer the ques
tions put to him.
"How long have you resided in this
state?"
"About two years."
"How long have you been in Inde
pendence?"
"Nearly a year."
"Have you ever taken out naturaliza
tion papers?"
"No, sir."
"Police, take this man into custody
for attempting to cast a fraudulent
! vote."
i An indictment was next in order, so
I it was thought best to ascertain the
exact nationality of the prisoner before
it was drawn. He was asked:
"Of what country were you a native?"
He answered:
! "Massachusetts."—"The Sunny Side of
Politics."

INSANE FROM JOY.
j An AMHociatcd I*rt88 Account of a Mother
and Daughter's Meeting.
| A very sad and remarkable case of
! overpowering joy unbalancing the mind
j occurred at Ashley, the victim being
j Miss Ethel Barney, a handsome fifteen
| year-old girl. Her parents were divorc
ed shortly after her birth and she was
j taken to the West by her father, where
!' she has lived until a few weeks ago.
East spring Mrs. Barney, who lives in
Ashley, wus married again, and being
in a position to support and thoroughly
educate her daughter, she wrote to her
first husband in the West asking him to
■ give up the child. For montiis he refus
ed, but upon the mother's plea that she
was now able to give her daughter the
j best advantages of education he con
sented.
The mother and daughter had not
J seen one another for fourteen years, but
| despite their separation had horn to
ward each other the fondest recollec
tions and tenderest iove.
The young girl ever since she had
been able to understand the reason slie
had no mother to watch over and bring
her up, had looked forward to a time
when she would see her. The mother j
too, waited with eagerness the time I
when they should be united. Before
starting from the West Miss Barney
| wrote to her mother tlxe only letter she
j had ever written to her, speaking of the j
j time when they should meet and saying 1
I she could scarcely wait until that time
I should come.
Naturally a rather weakly girl, the six
days' journey across the continent witli
the anxiety of seeing the mother preyed
upon her mind and body, and she was
far from well physically when she arriv
ed in Ashley a week ago.
The meeting between mother and
daughter was most affecting, each shed
ding tears of joy, but tlxe happiness was
too much for the young girl and an hour
xxfter the meeting slxe became violently
hysterical. She recovered shortly, hut
only to develop symptons of violent
insanity.
She grew worse day by day, and after
a consultation of physicians was held, it
was decided to send her to the insane I
asylum at Danville for treatment. She
was taken there just a week from her
meeting with her mother.
A Funeral Dirge.
The recent P. O. S. of A. convention,
at Lebanon, adopted a funeral dirge
composed by 11. Ed. Bufiington, Harris
burg. It will be used at all funerals
which may be conducted by the order,
and is sung to the air of "Nearer My
God to Thee." It is as follows:
Farewell! Ob, brother dear!
Thy earthly toil
Now sleeps so silent in
Thy native soil.
Clothed in red, white and blue
Thy deeds, so loyal, true.
We with our tears bedew.
Our teui-s bedew.
No nxorc in earthly camps
Thy face uppcurs.
Sov'reign of liberty
Thy voice now hears.
With patx-iots of old,
God's bugle call luxs told
Thy dwellings, there to hold,
In eixmps of gold.
Hallots May Not be Iteady.
Colonel \V. Hayes Grier, superinten
dent of public printing and binding,
■ says it is a practical impossibility to i
have printed the election ballots under !
the new law in time for election. It will
require, he says, 14,000 reams of white
and tinted paper in equal quanities,
which will weigh nearly 400 tons.
There are few presses in the state
upon which the ticket can be printed.
Three regular and three specimen bal
lots will he required for each voter. The
official ballot now being printed for the
state department will be 22x52 inches'
It is stated that there is not enough pa
per in the country of the kind required
to supply all the ballots needed,

Bulbing ut tlie Southern Beaches.
Something has been said heretofore in
regard to the inconvenience caused by
sea blubbers to the surf bathers on the
island. This nuisance, instead of abat
ing, is on the increase, and if any one
wishes to bathe in the sea water now
with impunity it becomes necessary to
completely swathe himself in clothing
from head to foot for fear of being stung.
Tho effects of these stings vary ac
cording to the constitution of the suffer
er. Usually, in persons of good health
and active circulation, an angry red
blotch appears in the Bkin proportionate
in size to the animul by which it is in
flicted, rarely exceeding eight or ten
inches in diameter. An intolerable
smarting sonsation is produced which re
mains ordinarily about half an hour,
and it is easy to imagine the condition of
a nervous or sensitive person when stung
in three or four places at once. T-lio
feeling must he nearly akin to that of
being on fire.
In some cases the effects are more seri
ous. A young man recently showed the
writer his arm, which was severely
stung. A broad hand of what looked like
highly inflamed mosquito bites formed
an almost perfect spiral around tho fore
arm. He complained that the pain was
at first intense, and that although under
a physician's treatment it was rapidly
becoming less, still it was far from i
pleasant.
An old sea islander who took a surf
hath the other night said that he had
seon sea blubbers before and in consid
erable quantities, "but never like this.
At certain seasons of the year," said he,
"it is nothing unusual to get stung.
Here tho exception seems to be to get
stung less than five times in half an
hoar."
Complaints of sea blubbers come also
from Tybee and other watering places in
the south.—Charleston News and Cou
rier.
