JUST FOR AN INSTANT. Louise Chandler Moulton. Jut for an instant your earnest eyes Looked from the depths of your soul to mine, And then you grew suddenly cold and wise, And carelessly said that the day was fine. The day was fine, and the wind was fair, And the May sun shone on the glittering sea, And you bade me good-by with a careless air, And smilingly turned away from me. And back you went to your eager life. Where men traffic aud struggle and count their gain, To strive with the rest in the thick of the strife, Heedless of pleasure and reckless of pain. And they think that they know you all those men Who struggle witb you for credit and gold; While still there is always beyond their ken The story that only your eyes have told. Only your eyes, in a single ray, That flashed the truth from your soul to mine, ust for an instaat, then turned away, And left me alone in the May sunshine. Perhaps I shall never see you again Till both of us stand at the far-off goal, Where Life shall triumph, since Death is slain. And soul makes answer to earnest soul. Yet I shall know you, your whole life through, Once having seen your soul in your eyes, When the May sun shone and the May wind blew, And we parted under the watching skies. A STRANGE EXPERIENCE. A. Very Peculiar Ntory Concerning a Sympathetic 31 other and Uer Hon. Inter Ocean "Curbstone Crayons." "You must have Lad some strange experiences with imaginative and nerv ous people, doctor," I said. "How do vou treat those who believe in premoni tions?" "I don't laugh at them," he replied, with a something in his tone that told me I had touched a tender spot. "I don't laugh at strange dreams," he continued. "One of the most sensi ble business men in town came to me one day and told me a story like this : - He had dreamed that his mother was very sick, that he had gone to her with infinite difficulty, that when he reached her home his brothers and sisters, standing in a circle about the sick bed, gave back silently so as to form in two lines, between which he went without a word and knelt down at the bedside. It seemed to him that his mother, with out speaking, made him understand by pressure of her hand where the trouble was, and that as he was straining every nerve to help her he awoke. "He admitted that the dream troubled him, and was explaining how close he had always been to his mother in sym pathy when his clerk came hurrying in with a telegram, which informed him that his mother was dangerously ill, and desired, above all things, to see him. He left me with a dazed look, but came back in an hour to show me another telegram .urging him to come at once if he wanted to see his mother alive. He could not speak, and I had no theory that would comfort or encourage him. He went east on the first train. When he arrived at the old home he found his brothers and sisters gathered about the bed, just as he had seen them in his dream. They were all crying, and without greeting him they made way for him to pass. He knelt down, thinking at first his mother was dying. But she shook her head, and opened her eyes to let them feast upon his face. "Then she said, 'I knew you would come. Your head came to me night before last, and bounded all about me and worked so hard to help me. But your body couldn't come, and at last your head flew up and went out at that corner. I have so longed to see you. I am not going to die this time. But I want you with me.' He stayed with her alone that night and before mid night the crisis came and passed and she was better. That man, and there was no nonsense about him, told me that he was happier that night than he had ever been before, and that he seemed as near, in a child-like way, to his mother as when she had held him in her arms forty years before. Remember that on the night he dreamed that he went to his mother, and his mother dreamed that his head came to her, and that when he did go to her the scene was exactly like that he had seen in his dream. His case is one in a hundred. I do not laugh at strange dreams or strange dreamers." A ambler's Xerve. New Orleans Times-Democrat "I have seen a good many men in my time that were stuck on gambling," remarked a faro dealer in Louisville,' Ky., a few nights ago as he deftly shoved the cards out of a box, making the jack lose, and picking up a bet that was heeled from the deuce and one that was on the outside corner of the king, "but I think the worst case I ever saw was that of a man named Bruno. He enlisted in the army for five years in the regular service, at a salary of $15 a month. He served that time out without drawing a cent, and last fall, during the races, he came here with $780 in his pocket. The first day he struck town he lost $700 on Monticello in the heat race, when Gus Matthews beat him. He came in from the track and put th- other $80 upon the high card and lost it on the turn. He then borrowed 15 cents to get shaved on, and walking off, he enlisted for five years more. Talk about nerve; I've seen men soak their wives' clothes and their coats off their backs to play, but that man had more pluck than any man I ever saw." Dalrymple, the Farmer. New Orleans Times-Democrat Oliver Dalrymple, of the famous Dalrymple wheat farm, is described as a typical "Uncle Sam" in appearance. His face is "peaked," his hair long. He wears a big white hat and old fashioned farmer's clothes, and might be mistaken for an antique New England school master transplanted to the northwest ern prairies. He is cordial in conversa tion and entirely absorbed in the vari ous departments of his business, of which he understands every detail, and in which he manages his host of labor ers like a general marshalling an army for battle. Abraham Lincoln's Duel. ("Carp's" Letter. Few men know that Lincoln was a duelist But when he was a young man he accepted a challenge to fight a duel, and the place and weapons were agreed upon. Swords were chosen, and the parties assembled on the Hissouri side of the Illinois river; a most ap propriate place, said Mr. Lincoln, as it was in sight of the penitentiary. When the two were ready to fight, however, it was noticed that Lincoln's height and . long arms gave him a great advantage over his antagonist, who wai very short, and the matter was set tled with, a laugh by Mr. Lincoln's telling a good story. THE PYRAMIDS OF MEXICO. Dedicated ( the San and HoonThe fury of the JKranelaean. Mexico Cor. New Orleans Times-Democrat At a distance the pyramids present no evidence of their artificial origin, ap pearing rather like isolated hills, cov ered with nopales and a scanty growth of vegetation. It is only on closer sur vey, when you make the laborious ascent of the larger mounds that you discover unmistakable signs of their being the handiwork of man,- in spite of the efforts nature has made to claim them as her own. The principal monu ments are the pyramids, tumuli and fortress. Of the two pyramids the larger was dedicated to the sun and the smaller to the moon. They were once divided into four stories or terraces, although time has long since destroyed the lines of di vision. The material composing them is a mixture of stone, mud, tepetal and tezontli, the two latter be'ng volcanic stones of a j orous nature, and the whole structure was formerly covered with planter or stucco of lime and sand of a reddish color, like that, which is said to cover the ruins of Palenque. At intervals, while following the up ward path, one finds extensive rents in the thick layers of earth and vegetation which have accumulated during past ages, and then the composition of these stupendous works of masonry is plainly revealed. Remains of a spacious stair case leading up to the teocalli may also be seen. Traiition says that both pyramids are hollow, but hitherto .all efforts to excavate them have proved fruitless. In Metztli or the Moon, there is a hole looking toward the south and situated up about two-thirds of its height, which is prolonged into a kind of gallery, extending, however, only a comparatively short distance; the walls are covered with unburnt brick, and at the further end there is a well. - The foregoing facts we were obliged to take upon trust, as the narrowness of the opening and our cumbersome female attire prevented us from exploring in person the mysteries of the interior. We were more fortunate, however, in investigating an excavation in one of the tumuli situated near the pyramid of the Moon, which after a considerable amount of scrambling we succeeded in entering. We found a spacious gallery with small rooms at the side and inter sected by another gallery in such a man ner as to form a cross. Directly in front of this opening there stands a huge piece of hewn stone, some ten feet in height, upon which a large, round face is rudely carved. This relic of an tiquity was supposed to have been hurled down from the position it for merly occupied upon the pyramid of the Moon. A little further on, at the end of a kind of plazuela is another colos-al blcck of stone upon which is a rough representation of what might be con sidered the moon. Both pyramids were fomerly crowned by statues of the di vinities to whch they were dedicated ; that which adorned the Sun being cov ered by plates of burnished gold, which reflected the first beams of the king of day. These figures are said to have been extant at the t'me the Spaniards entered the country, but they soon be came a prey to the insatiable cupidity of the conquerors, whose thirst for gold made them sacrifice every consideration in order to gratify this passion. Owing to the fury of the Franciscan, Zumarraga, none of the antiquities of Tenochtitlan were allowed to escape de struction, if they chanced to fall within his reach, and the idols of San Juan de Teotihuacau shared the universal doom. The pyramid of Tanatinh, or the Sim, is 160 feet high and 682 feet long at the base, comparing favorably with the great pyramid of Cheops in Egypt, the latter being 448 feet high and 728 at the base. The view obtained from the summit is a sufficient reward for the la bor of climbing its steep sides. To the southeast lies the land of Tlascala, so intimately associated with the conquest; a little further to the south the plains of Apam and Peubla de las Angeles, while to the we t tower those giant mountains that guard the valley of Mexico. Horace Ureeley'a New Pantaloons. Boston Budget This story related by a Boston gentle man concerning the late Horace Gree ley has never we believe, been in print. I was 'formerly," said the gentleman referred to, "in business on Fulton street, New Ycrk city, and made clothes for Greeley, the elder Bennett, and other newspaper magnates of those days. Mr. Greeley was very easy to please, and would leave anything to my judgment regarding the make and cut of his gar ments. Ordinarily he would just open the bundle of new clothes when it was sent home, glance at the contents in a hurried and abstracted manner, say they weie all right, and I would never hear from them again ; but one morning he came to the store with a strangely troubled countenance. "Whufs the matter, Mr. Greeley?" said I. Well,' said he, with the puzzled look on his face increasing : 'is this the style of pantaloons they are wearing now 7 'I believe it is, Mr. Greeley,' was my answer; 'don't you like them ?' 'I can't say that I do, said he, surveying them with a resigned and bewildered expression, 'for one leg appears to be much shorter than the other.' 'Oh, not at all, Mr. Greeley,' I replied, 'don't you see that the right leg is caught in your boot behind 7 I declare, so it is, and the girls didn't say anything about it,' was the remark of The Tribune philosopher, as one of the boys stooped down and straightened out the nether difficulty above an upper leather that spoke more of floral and country green than it did of the polish of he town." tteorge Han .'m Ideal oi I.I . To throw yourself into the lap of mother nature ; to take her really for mother and sister; stoically and relig iously to cut off from your life what is merely gratified vanity; to make your self humble with the .unfortunate, to weep with the misery of the poor ; to acknowledge no other God than Him who ordains justice and equality among men ; to venerate what is good, to judge severely what is only strong; to live on very little, to give away nearly a'l, in order to re-establish primitive equality and bring back to life again the divine institution ; that is the religion I shall proclaim in a little corner of my own. In One Veil Swoop. Chicago News. Mr. Barnum has paid in one fell swoop the great debt of gf atitude he owed the American press. He has offered $500 for the best poem on his white elephant, and turned the spring freshet of bad verses out 'of the news paper channel Cassius M. Clay: I ask a hard quel tion : Has not the press come to be the ruling power in Christendom, and is it not more corrupt in America than in any other civilized nation? THE FATHER OF THE WEATHER. Trvnbles Hot by Sir. James P. Eapy In Carrying oat Hli Ideas. Ben: Perley Poors. James P. Espy is the father of the present system of weather signal service. He was a Pennsylvania! by Tjirth, and so poor in early life that he had not been able to learn to read when he was seventeen years of age. He subsequently mastered the English language and the classics, and long before he knew why began to study the mystery of the moving clouds, and to form his storm theories. At last he came to Washington and asked of con gress an appropriation of $5,000 a year for five years, but he was met with jibes and ridicule. Senator Preston of South Carolina said Espy was a mad man, too dangerous to be at large, and the senator would vote a special appro priation for a prison in which to confine him. Espy was in the senate gallery at the time. Wounded to the quick, he left the capital and went to New York, where he delivered a course of lectures with great success. They were re peated in Boston, and he made money enough to enable him to visit Europe. Not long after reaching Liverpool, Jan. G, 1839, a great storm occurred. He went to Lloyd's, consulted the news papers as they arrived, noted the direc tion of the wind as given at different places, and from these data constructed the first great storm map ever prepared, with the hour points marked. Every line and curve and point exemplified his theory. He was at no loss now for audiences. He appeared before the British association of scientists, at Lon don, at which Sir John Herschel was present, an interested auditor. He crossed the channel to Paris, and the Academy of Sciences appointed a com mittee, composed of the illustrious Arago, "to report upon his observations and theory." The effect of this report, when it reached Washington, was not much different from that which followed, afterwards, the announcement of Morse's first transmitted message over the wire from Washington to Balti more. In due time Professor Espy returned to Washington, and one of the first pub lic men he encountered was Senator Preston. They met on Pennsylvania avenue. Towards the conclusion of their report, Mr. Arago's committee had expressed the hope that the government of the United States would place Mr. Espy in a position to continue his im portant investigations and complete his remarkable theory by means of all the observations and all the experiments which even the deductions of his theory may suggest in a vast country, the home as it were of the aerial meteors, storms, wa'erspouts and tornadoes. Senator Preston was prompt to apologize for the mistake he had made when his language drove Espy from the senate gallery, and he was as profuse in his promise to help the storm king on in the spirit of the French report. It is a matter of history that he did so; . that Espy got his $25, COO, and that to him we owe the first step in the formation f the present signal service. He pub lished several reports, which are now very rare. Women on Board Ships. New York Times. Captains' wives are usually thor oughly discussed in the forecastle of their respective ships. Jack judges his master's mistress according to the man ner in which she treats him. He usually speaks of her as the "Old Woman." This seems her proper title, as her hus band is invariably known in the fore castle as the "Old Man." If she treats Jack with kindness and interests her self in having him made comfortable, he changes her title to "Old Lady." But "if she is severe on him and cuts down the allowances of food, or insti tutes other economical reforms, he will not even honor her with the title of "Old Woman." Under such circum stances she is apt to be ironically spoken of as the "Old Fairy." The fe male relatives of the captain usually ac quire the same staid habits as his wife, if they accompany him on his voyages. If, however, the solemn monotony of the cabin does not smifc them they man age to secure berths on land. Some times the mate or one of the other offi cers takes his wife to sea with him. Then there is a chance for an occasional gleam of sunshine in the cabin. When all the officere of a ship have their wives along the latter have a much better chance of enjoying themselves; but such instances are rare. A Bnddhlst Temple for Paris. According to M. Claretie, of The Paris Temps, Paris is shortly to possess a Buddhist temple. There are in the French capital a considerable number of Buddhists who have no place of publio worship. The want is, it seems, to be supplied by a rich English lady. Sbe Las bought a plot of ground, and the masons are already at work. It appears that this is not the first time that a Buddhist temple has been opened in Paris. During the last international exhibition, when so many rich Hindoos came to France with numerous reti nues, an application was made to M. Bardoux, then minister of public works, for permission to open a Buddhist temple in the vicinity of the Champ de Mars. The minister consented ; but it was said th t he had some difficulty in getting Marshal MacMahon to sign the necessary decree. He yielded only on its being pointed out to him that the guests of France could not be refused permission to perform their religious duties. Bismarck Wot Superstitions. Chicago Herald. The Prussian people believe that Bis marck is superstitious. They say that he is awed by apparitions in uninhabited castles, shrinks from dining where thir teen sit down at table, believes in un lucky days, and adheres to the ancient belief of the influence of the moon on every living thing. But, according to Dr. Busch, this is all nonsense, with the exception of a single story which happened at Schonhausen (where the chancellor heard mysterious footsteps in the ante-chamber of his bed-room). "The jests about my superstitions," he said a few months ago, "are nothing but jests, or consideration of the feel ings of others.1 I will eat at table with twelve others as often as you like, and will undertake the most important and serious business on a Friday."

If such a coin were introduced into this country, many more people who attend church would contribute to the mission ary cause. J. J. Rousseau: A.

As a restorer of exhausted nerve force, it has been largely shown during the past thirteen years that the New Vitalizing Treatment dispensed by Drs. Starkey & Palen, 1109 Girard street, Philadelphia, Pa., is the most prompt and efficient agent yet discovered by the medical profession. Its use by over-worked business and pro fessional men would save many hundreds of lives every year, and to give to thous ands more the ability to work without the weariness, exhaustion, and peril which now attend them.

It's a queer coincidence but nearly all defaulters are "fly" fellows. AN ARMY EXPERIENCE. How an Old Veteran Escaped Anni hilation and Lived to Impart a Warning; to Others. (National Tribune of Washington.) A pleasing occurrence which has just come to our notice in connection with the New-tYork state meeting of the Grand Army of the. Republic is so unusual in many respects that we venture to re pro produce it for the benefit of our leaders. Captain Alfred Rensom, of New York, while . pacing: in the lobby of the armory, previous to one of the meet ings, suddenly stopped and scanned the face f of a gentleman who was in earnest conversation with one of the Grand Army officers. It seemed to him that he had seen that face before, partially obscured by the smoke of battle, and yet this bright and pleasant countenance could not be the same pale, and death-like visage, which he so dimly remembered. But the recollection, like Banquo's ghost, would not "down at command and haunted him the entire day. On the day following he again saw the same countea ance, and ventured to speak to its owner, The; instant the two veterans heard each other's voices that instant they recognized and called each other by name. Tteir faces and forms had changed, but their voices were the same. The man whom Captain Rensom had recognized was Mr. W. K. Sage, of St. Johns, Mich, a veteran of the Twenty-third New York Light Ar tillery and both members of Burnside's fa mous expedition to North Carolina. After the first greetings were over, Captain Rensom said: "It hardly seems possible, Sage, to see you in this condition, for I thought you must have been dead long ago." "Yes, I do not doubt it, for, it I am not mistaken, when we last met I was occupy ing a couch in the hospital, a victim of 'Yellow Jack' in its worst form." "I remember. The war seems to have caused more misery since its close than when it was in progress," replied the Cap tain. "I meet old comrades frequently who are suffering terribly, not so much from old wounds as from the malarial poi sons which ruined their constitutions. ' "I think so myself. When the war closed I returned home and at times I would feel well, but every few weeks that confounded 'all-gene feeling would come upon me again. My nervous system, which was shattered in the service, failed me entirely and produced one of the worst possible cases of nervous dyspepsia. Most of the time I had no appetite; then again I would become ravenously hungry, but the minute I sat down to eat I loathed food. My skin was dry and parched, my flesh loose and flabby. I could hold noth ing on my stomach for days at a time, and what little I did eat failed to assimilate. I was easily fatigued: my mind was de pressed; I was cross and irritable and many a night my heart would pain me so I could not sleep, and when I did I had horrid dreams and frightful nightmaros. Of course, these things came on one by one, each worse thn the other. My breath was foul, my tongue was coated, my teeth decayed. I had terrific headaches which would leave my nervous system com pletely shattered. In fact my existence, since the war, has been a living death, from which I have often prayed for re- "Couldn't the old surgeon do you any good?" "I wrote him and he treated me, but like every other doctor, failed. They all said my nerve was srone and without that to build upon I could not get well. When I was at my worst, piles of the severest nature came upon me. Then my liver gave out and without the use of cathar tics I could not move my bowels at all. My blood got like a stream of fire and seemed literally to burn me alive." "Well you might better have died in battle, quick, and without ceremony." "How many times I have wished I had died the day we captured Newberne."J "And yet you are now the picture of health." "And the picture is taken from life. I am in perfect condition. My nerve tone isrestored; my stomach reinvigorated; my flesh is hard and healthy; in fact I have new blood, new energy and a new lease of life wholly as the result of using War ner's Tippecanoe. This remarkable pre paration, which I consider the finest tonic and stomach restorer In the world, has overcome all the evil influences of mala ria, all the poison of the army, all traces of dyspepsia, all mal-assimilation of food, and indeed made a new man of me." The Captain remained silent for awhilo evidently musing over his recollections of the past. When he again raised his head he said: "It would be a godsend if all the veter ans who have suffered so intensely and also all others in the land who are endur ing so much misery could know of your experience, Sage, and the way by which you have been restored." And that is why the above conversation is recounted. The second largest source of revenue to the U. S.
