It is not a suitable em blem, for it implies nn absence of light and a want of life, xvhich we certainly do not wish to convey as our concep tion rjf the state of our departed friends. Mourning is supposed to be the out ward visible signs of inward grief. Tlijjjiofcicm of chajjpe, however wpjihl not readily be received, for when one lias to put on the habiliments of woe, grief is too strong to be overcome by fashion." "What other colors are used in mourning" "In Italy women grieve in white garments and men in brown In China white is worn by both sexes. hi Turkey, Syria, Cappailocia and Armenia celestial blue is the tint chosen; in Egypt, yellowish brown, the hue of the dead leaf, is deemed proper; and in Ethiopia, where men are black, gray is the emblem of mourning. All these colors are symbols. White symbolizes purity, an attribute ot our dead; the celestial hue, that place of rest where happy souls aro at peace; the yellow or dead leaf tells that death is the end of all human hope, and that man falls as the autumn leaf, and gray whispers of the earth, to which all re turn. The Lycians considered mourn ing for the lead an effeminato prac tice, and so when they grieved they put on women's clothes as a symbol of weakness and as a shame to them for a lack of manliness. The Thracians made a feast when ono of their loved ones died, and every method of joy and delight was employed. This meant that the dead had passed from a s.tate of misery into one of never-ending felicity. Black was introduced as mourning by the queen of Charles VII. Before that the French queens wore white for mourning, nnd were known as white queens. "New York Sun." Arrltali al (lie 1'. S. llotrl. The following is a list of the arrivals at the TJ. S.

A little boy 13 years old, Perkins by name, got after a large California lion hat had been worried by dogs within a hundred raids or so of Frank Bucll's barn. The little fellow had no gun but a musket loaded with bird shot, but ho ran up close and shot it. It turned on hint, tho dogs came to the sescue, and wl;en it turned from him to the dogs, it was so elose that its tail struck his should er. It then tock to a tieo and the little fellow continued to pepper away at it until he shot away all of his shot, when he, went to making wooden plugs and shooting them at it, at no time be ing far enough away from the animal to be out of reach in case it wanted to jump on him. Finally Mr. Newman came to the rescuo with a Winchester and dispatched him. Ho was so large that a man could not drag him on level ground. "Plaindealer." Governor Foster denies having talked with anybody about Blaino for next President, as has been alleged. He said he had no knowledgo of Blaine's purposes, beyond having heard him say that so far as the Presi dential case was concerned he had been , discharged cured. A distinguished statesman forty years ngo was on a visit to Baltimore, and he gave to a colored irl while here what ho supposed to be at tho time a 1 bill. The next morning the girl went to a grocery store, and after making a few trilling purchases gax'e tho bill in payment, under the supposi tion that it was a dollar. Tho pro prietor of the-store, a highly esteemed citizen of Baltimore, noticed that it ! was for 3100, and Ti 6urnosef! at) once that The woman had stolen it. A"s2er. taining the delusion she was under, he informed her of tho true character of tho note, and told her lie would de tain it until the owner was found. The girl told how she had received it, persisted that it had not been stolen, and assented to the gentleman retain ing it until the man was found. He advertised the bill, and the statesman, in answer, called to say that the girl's story was true, and that as her honesty had been suspected she should keep the bill. lie then departed t6 the scenes of his daily triumphs, and in the ac quisition of a great fame perhaps for got tho incident. The grocery mer chant retained the note, in expectation of tho girl returning, but sho never called for it, it is supposed being fright ened and fearing being charged with its theft. He deposited it at interest. Years rolled on and sho married, bore children and died, and .a few years ago a son applied to the merchant for tho note snd tho interest, which now amounted to a large sum of money. This amount the custodians of the fund paid into one of our city courts, in or der that tho court should decide whether or rot the claimant was enti tled to it. Tho court sustained tho claim and tho money was paid to the heir, and thus cuds the true story of a hundred dollar bill. "Baltimore Ga zette. Sonc'iiuii fok Fodder. Editors Press: I have raised a small patch every year for tho past six- years; a small quanity I havo made into syrup, for family use, using a rough wooden mill, and boiling in a galvanized sheet iron pan. The remainder I have fed to stock. Horses hogs and cows are greedy for it, and all seem to thrive on it. Chickens go for the seed. It will keep green hero (Santa Barbara county) almost tho entire year. It will flourish on rich ground and on poor ground. Cut to the ground when ripe, it starts from tho roots, nnd in ji few weeks there is quite a growth of fodder. It will grow the second year, but it is better To plow it up and plant afiesh. It will stand drouth much' belter than corn. It produces a largo amount of fodder to the acre. It can be planted early or late; is easy of cultivation; is a very xaluablo forago plant to continue tho supply of green feed, which it can here at least be done almost tho year round. Now do not all rush extensively into tho sor ghum, businesfl and plant whole farms in sorghum, but let every farmer who keeps cows plant a small patch, and see how it will lontinuo the How of milk and increase his buttor supply. It is rather troublesome plowing out the roots and disposing of tho large fibrous roots whon'plowcd out but tliis is only a minor objection. S. P. Snow, Santa Barbara, Cal. r Crushed uy a Fallino Thee. The news of a terrible accident conies by way of Albany. Clifton B. Reed, a thirteen year old son of Mr. J. G. Reed, started Sunday horseback to visit friends and relatives in Lebanon. When within about two miles of his destination a largo dead tree fell across tho road aud crushed to death hort and rider. The boy's body was terri bly mangled. No discovery of the accident was made until next morning at 10 o'clock. Clifton's remains were conveyed to Albany and buried Wed nesday afternoon. The great Vienna telescope just con structed is now the largest refracting telescope in tho world. Its apertun of twenty inches exceeds by one inch that of the Naval Observatory instrument in Washington. It is thirty-thres feat six inches long, tho mounting is Tery superior, and the large and imposing observatory is well located. From the fund raised by subscrip tion for Mrs. Garfield, i U.
