I was king of tho kindergartens,

then to think thoy refused mo nt a

bog my way in. Now what do you
think of that?
..
Did you bring a brick? This was tho
conversation aftor tho brick social at
tho Baptist church last Tuesday night.
A largo crowd gathered with bricks,
but nono woro thrown at anybody. Tho
object of tho social was to try and Ret
enough bricks to start tho foundation
of tho now church. Every llttlo bit
helps thoy say.
Weill Well! Weill It'a tho samo old
story In tho samo old way. First I
work all summer In tho hotel getting
my ono hundred per month and then
I had a minstrel troupe that startled
tho world and then to think when it
becomes cold and rainy and Portland
Club's besj. Is needed, I havo to be
contented with a bunch of railroad
cars all winter. Weill You can uso
your own judgment
While attending a funeral tho other
day at Lone Fir cemetery, I chanced
to notice several graves and on ono
tomb stono tho following epitaph was
written: "As I am you must be, pre
pared for death Is telling on me."
An Irishman passerby, before me,
stopped and read this Inscription, and
then left the following on tho back of
an envelope: "To follow thee, I am
not content; unless I know Just where
you went."
A most charming event of the sea
son was tho ball given at tho Forest
ers' hall, last Friday by the hotel
waiters In honor of Mrs. Bertha Wil
son and the ladles of Portland. Never
before has tho society been Invited
to a nioro refined and soda affair.
The hall was artistically decorated
with autumn leaves and beautiful
flowers. When the guests began to
flow Into the spacious hall, the air
seemed to whistle "vlolotte!" Tho
ladles dressed In elegant and expen
sive gowns and tho men In evening
Bults, mado this ball have the swell
est appearance Portland ever had. Tho
music was furnished by the Portland
hotel's Hungarian orchestra which
makes Paruon look sick. Four pieces
played until twelve o'clock when they
were relieved by four more that play
ed until the dance was over. Refresh
ments were served In )he hlghesj a la

continued until an early hour when
tho merry crowd dispersed. Good

OLD FAVORITES.
Annie Protheroe.
(A Legend of Stratford-Le-Bow.)
Oh, listen to tho tale of llttlo Annlo
Protheroe.
She kept a small post-office In the
neighborhood or Bow;
Sho loved a skilled mechanic, who was
famous In his day
A gentle executioner whoso namo was
Gilbert Clay.
I think I hear you say, "A dreadful
subject for your rhymes!"
O reader, do not shrink ho didn't
I live In modern times!
Ho lived so long ago (the sketch will
show It at a glance:
.That all his actions glitter with tho
lime-light of romance.
.In busy times he labored at bis' gentle
craft all day
."No doubt you mean his Cal-craft,"
I you amusingly will say
But nrj he didn't operate with com
I nion bits of string,
He wsr a Public Headsman, which Is
quite another thing.
.AI1U mini IIJO . r-a wiv., ..-,
I wnnlft ramble o'er the lea.
And sit beneath the frondage of an
elderberry-tree, '
And Annlo's simple prattle entertained
him on his walk
For public executions formed tho sub
ject for her talk.
And sometimes he'd explain to her,
which charmed her very much,
How famous operators vary very much
in touch,
And then, perhaps, ho'd show how ho
himself performed the trick,
And Illustrate his meaning with a
poppy and a stick.
Or, If It rained, tho Utile maid would
stop at home, and look
At his favorable notices, nil pasted In
a book,
And then her cheek would flush her
Bwlmmln geyes would dnnco with
Joy
In a glow of admiration at tho prowess
of her boy.
Ono Bummer eve, at suppcr-tlmo, tho
gentle Gilbert Bald
(As ho helped his pretty Annlo to a
sllco of collared head),
"This reminds mo I must settle on tho
next ensuing day
Tho hash of that unmitigated villain
Peter Gray."
Ho saw his Annlo trcmblo and ho snw
his Annie start,
Her changing color trumpeted tho
flutter nt her heart:
Young Gilbert's manly bosom rose and
sank with Jealous fear,
And he said, "O gentlo Annlo, what's
tho meaning of this here?"
And Annlo answered, blushing in an
interesting way,
"You think, no doubt, I'm sighing for
that felon Poter Gray!
That I waB his young woman Is un
questionably true,
But not Blnco I began a-kecplng com
pany with you."
Then Gllbort, who was Irritable, rose
and loudly sworo
Ho'd know tho renson why If sho re
fused to tell him moro;
And sho answered (nil tho woman In
her flashing from her eyes),
"You mustn't nsk no questions, and
you won't be told no Ileal
"Few lovers havo tho prlvllogo en
Joyed, my dear, by you,
Of chopping off n rival's head and
quartering him tool
Of vengeance dear, tomorrow you
will surely tnko your fill!"
And Gllbort ground his molars as ho
answered her, "I will!"
Young Gilbert roso from tnblo with n
stern, determined look,
And. frowning, took an Inexpensive
hatchet from Its hook;
And Annlo watched his movements
with an Interested nlr
For tho morrow for tho morrow ho
wns going to proparo!
Ho chipped It with a hammer and ho
chopped It with n bill,
I To poured sulphuric acid on tho edge
of it, until
This terrlblo Avenger of tho Majesty
of Law
Was far less llko a hatchet than a dis
sipated saw.
And Annlo snld, "O Ollbort dear, I do
not understand
Why over you aro injuring that
hatchet In your hand?"
Ho said, "It Ib Intended for to Inccrato
and flay
Tho neck of that unmitigated villain,
Peter Gray I "
"Now, Gilbert," Annlo nnsworod,
"wicked headsman, Just bownre
I won't havo Poter tortured with that
horrible affair;
If you appear with that, you may de
pond you'll ruo tho day."
But Gilbert said, "Oh, shall I?" which
was just hla nasty way.
Ho saw a look of anger from her oyes
distinctly dnrt,
For Annlo was a woman, and had pity
In hor henrtl
Sho wished him a good-ovcnlng ho
answered with a glaro;
Sho only snld, 'Romombor, for your
Annlo will bo there!"
Tho morrow Gllbort boldly on tho
scaffold took his stand,
With a vizor on his iaco and with n
hatchet In his hand;
And nil tho peoplo noticed that tho
Englno of tho Law
Was far less llko a hatchet than n dis
sipated saw.
Tho folon very coolly loosed his collar
and his stock,
And placed his wicked head upon tho
handy llttlo block,
Tho hatchet was uplifted for to sottlo
Peter Gray,
When Gilbert plainly heard a woman's
voice exclaiming, "Stay!"
'Twas Aiyile, gentlo Annie, as you'll
easily believe.
"O Gilbert, you must sparo him, for I
bring him a reprlovo,
It came from our Homo Secretary
many weeks ago.
And passed through that post-office
which I used to keep at Bow.
"I loved you, loved you madly, and
you know It, Gilbert Clay,
And as I'd quite surrendered all Idea
of Peter Gray,
I quietly suppressed It, as you'll clear
ly understand,
For I thought It might be awkward if
ho came and claimed my band
"In anger at my secret (which I could
not tell before),
To lacerate poor Peter Gray vindic
tively you swore;
I told you If you used that blunted axo
you'd ruo tho day,
And so you will, young Gilbert, for I'll
marry Peter Gray!"
(And so sho did.) W. 8. Gilbert.

This chariot, which Is mentioned In

suit of tho Israelites by Pharaoh, ami
of his overthrow In tho Red Sen, was

wooden framework strengthened nnd

which Homer has given of thoso on

occasionally sit on the sides, or squat,
In eastern fashion, on his heels. Tho
body of the car was not hung on the
axle In equllibrlo, but considerably
forward, so that the weight was
thrown more upon tho horses. Its
lightness, however, would prevent this
from being very fatiguing to them, and
this mode of placing It had the advan
tage of rendering the motion more eacy
to the driver. To contribute further
to this end, the bottom or floor con
sisted of a network of Interlaced
thongs, the elasticity of which In some
measure answered the purpose of mod
ern springs.
The Egyptian chariots were Invaria
bly drawn by two horses abreast, which
were richly caparisoned. The
chariot of Egypt ordinarily carried two
persons, one of whom acted as the war
