NEOLA.
On dark, green mosses, cool and shadowed
deep,
Half hid in waves of .Lilies tall and red,
Ncola lies, her soft eyes drowsed by
sleep
One bare, white rounded arm beneath
her head. , ;
A ravished bar of golden sunshine Eloeps
Athwart the yellow glory of her hair,
And all his soft entangled bed he steeps '
In dyes of deeper color rich and rare.
The tips of lashes kiss eaca warm, flushed
cheek,
The bosom, full and white, movc3 soft
and slow,
The wet red lips are parted as to speak
While -drowsy smiles enchanted come
and go.
One loose hand holds a scarlet poppy bud,
1'it emblem of NeoLVs fatal power,
To lull the stir and actions of men's blood,
Ana lay them swooning at her feet one
hour.
Intoxicated by her close embrace,
ForgeVal of the world, of duty, care:
Till smiling cold she turns away her face,
And they awuke to madness and' de
spair. I

When Judge Black Quit Tobacco.
Judge Jeremiah S. Black used to say
that after he came to Washington as at
torney general and had to work very hard
he took up the notion that tobacco was
bad for him, so one morning he concluded
to let the evil thing alone, lie went down
to his office feeling as if he had lost his
best friend. It was his duty to go up to
the supreme court and argue a case. He
went and made the poorest argument of
hi;i life. He thought the judges were a set
of mutton-heads. Then he went to .see
tnc president, and for the lirst time sus
pected ho was an old hypocrite. He went
back to his office, quarreled with his clerks,
kicked the office boy, and swore for the
first time in twenty years. On going home
that afternoon he met a very pious clergy
man, for whom he had a great respect, and
who joined him, but before they had gone
tea yards the judge felt that he hated him. j
He mentioned, however, that ho had given
up tobacco that day. The clergyman i
shook his head. "Ah, my dear friend," he
said, "I am afraid it was at the devil's bid
ding. I tried it once. It almost cost me
my religion. I scolded my children, told
my wife she was a fool, got into a fight
with the deacons In the church, and if I
hadn't taken up smoking just in time I'd
have been a miserable reprobate at this
moment. Go and read your Bible, and if
you can find a word in it from Genesis to
Revelations against tobacco come and let
me know. But If you want to save your
soul go back to the noxious weed."
The judge says he took this advice, and
from that moment he never thought the
supreme court composed of idiots or Mr.
Buchanan anything else but a statesman,
had no more quarrels with his clerks, gave
the office ?1, and never used a cuss word
from that day forth. Washington Cor,
Chicago News.
The Tune of "John Brown."
The tune of "John Brown" was adapted
from a camp-meeting tune, "Say, brothers,
will you meet usP This, in turn, was
modeled from a song written for a fire
company-r-"Say, bummers, will you meet
usf" The words originated with members
of the "Tiger Battalion," Massachusetts
volunteer militia; and as' these members
subsequently enlisted in the Twelfth Ma
sachosetts volunteer infantry (Webster
regiment) we naturally claim words and
music of the '"John Brown Song." It first
appeared iu April, 1S61, in a quartette oi
the "Tigers" Jenkins, Edgerty, Purnette
and John Brown and was simply a sort
of joke on the name of the last mentioned.
He was a Scotchman, and failed to see
any witticism, which, of course, only made
it more lasting. The Twelfth Massachu
setts sang it in Boston harbor, at Fort
Warren, were the first to sing it in New
York city July, 1S01, where it made a sen
sation, and continued chanting it until it
had become so common property as to
have lost all novelty. We claim the
adaptation of the tune and these words:
"John Brown's body lies moldering iu the
grave,
His soul goes marching on,
Glory, Hallelujah."
Our regimental baud (Maitland's, of
Brockton, Mass.) was .the first to urrauge
and play the tune. Two of the quartette
are now living in Boston, Mass., John
Brown was drowned in Virginia, June,
18C2, and Jenkins' whreabouts aro un
known. All were sergeants in the Twelfth
Massachusetts volunteers. "Twelfth Mas

A Baby in the Mining Gorge.
Alder Gulch, in western Montana, is un
questionably the richest gulch ever dis
covered in any country, and since its find
ing it has yielded over S7.,000,000, iu gold,
most of it being in the shape of dust and
nuggets.
A very pretty story is told of the early
days of Alder Gulch, when the first white
child born In this part of the United States
first saw the light of day in a little log
cabin far up at the end of that wonderful
gorge The girl-wife had followed her
lover from the states, and braving every
hardship for his sake, had at last found
him. When the baby came the gulch
went on a spree. Gold in handfuls was
thrown by the rough miners into the little
one's cradle, until the poor little thing
was almost smothered under the yellow
nuggets. One rough old fellow wanted to
hear it cry, and when the baby piped up
tha miner wept, saying he had not heard
a sound like that for years. When it was
sick business was almost suspended, and
nobody could think of doing anything
until the baby was better. That baby is
a man now, and has taken to mining like
his father. Globe-Democrat.
First Beer on American Soil.
William Pennand Jacobus were the
two men who first brewed beer on Amer
ican soil. Jacobus built his brewery In
1044, on what is now the corner of Pearl
street and Old Slip, New York, where he
also established a beer garden. He after
ward became the first burgomaster, and
his beer and justice gave equal satisfac
tion to the citizens of New Amsterdam.
Penn's brewery was at Pennsburg. Bucks
county. N. Y., where the excellence of his
brew Is considered by no means the least
of his virtues. A hundred years later that
doughty soldier, Gen. Israel Putnam, was
running a brewery and tavern at Brook

The offer was refused because he says that

THE MOVEMENTS OF MALARIA.
Tho Disease Creeping Into Many New
England Places for the First Time.
That there is really a "germ" in the air,
that produces this , depressing and life
cheapening affliction in so many regions, -in
all parts of the globe, is the firm con
viction of those physicians who are tha
best microscopists. The "germ" theory
seems to include a germ for the cause of
all the zymotic diseases diseases that are
contagious, epidemic, etc., and produced
in the language of Dunglison, by "some
morbid principle acting on the system like
a ferment." They are claimed to be veg
etable growth, of a fungoid nature, and
tho theory is that during the process, or
"period" of each a period of growth, like
mildew, the victim is a sufferer from a
more or less violent fever; that this pe
riod varies in typhoid it Is assumed to be
twenty-one tlays, in other forms of fever
perhaps a shorter term, till the microscop
ical fungoid growth may be said to ef
floresce and. shed its spores.
Kight here appears one of the seeming
mysteries which, however clear they may
(or may not) be to the professional phys
ician, are always puzzling to the layman.
In"malarial" diseases old-fashioned fever
and ague these hypothetical spores (if
not artfully killed medicinally in tho nick
of time) will sprout up anew, unlike their
method in scarlet fever, diphtheria, etc.,
and have another run thus keeping the
miserable victim a sufferer for years, it
may bo through life, like the ten thou
sands of miserable people who make such,
a dismal appearance at the doors of their
cabins in the western and southern states.
Why these alleged spores of "malaria"
should behave in this way, while those of
other diseases don't, is one of the conun
drums that few outside of "tho profes
sion" have ever solved.
The disease, whatever it is, has been
creeping into New England "since the
war," and appearing in localities wnere
its presence never was known before.
Since the days of George Washington
nothing seems to have been known of it
in Connecticut, for instance, until some
time in about the last twenty-five years.
It was not until some years after the war
that it began to spread over large parts of
the state moving in a sporadic and highly
eccentric way; leaping over large areas of
twenty miles, and appearing in other and
totally separated localities, here and in
Massachusetts. People have been in
clined in every instance to attribute its
appearance to some local cause some de
fect in drainage, some neighboring pond
or marsh; but tho truth seem3 to be that
its cause, while it is no coubt in the air, is
nevertheless largely generic. It visits the
tops of the Berkshire hills as well as the
levels of the Connecticut valley. A little
pamphlet bearing the title, "The Epidemic
of Malarial Diseases In Southwestern New
England," by Dr. IL Griswold, traces the
course of this disorder in Connecticut, and
in parts of Massachusetts and Rhode
Island. It was known In this state in the
last century; but for about seventy years
down to the out-break of the
civi1 war it seems to have been
unknown in our borders. It came,
mostly after the war, but spread
itself over the state in the most leaping,
partial, eccentric way. Hartford Times.
. Jefferson Davis and Ills Father-in-law.
. .Mrs. Clement C. Clay, "M Alabama,
whose husband shared Mr. Davis' im
prisonment after the civil war, and who
is one of the most remarkable women the
south ever produced, gave me the sequel
of this elopement "Scrape. Gen. Taylor
never forgave either Davis or his daughter
until the night after Davis led the famous
charge of his regiment of Mississippi rifle
men at Bucna Vista. About midnight an
orderly presented himself at CoL Davis'
tent and announced that Gen. Taylor
wished to see him at headquarters imme
diately. The two men had never spoken
since the one had stolen the daughter of
the other. Davis knew the passionate
temper of the old man, and instantly con
jectured that the sudden and peremptory
summons boded no good to him. In deep
anxiety he hurried to the general's tent,
entered the door, and saluted without
speaking or moving a step inside. The
door was closed in a moment, and 'Old
Kough and Ready,' with his arms out
stretched, rushed forward and embraced
his long-ignored son-in-law, exclaiming,
'By , my daughter knew you better
than I did. Forgive me! Forgive me!'
"The reconciliation so dramatically
brought about was a lasting one, and to
the day of Old . Zach's death, sixteen
months and four days after his inaugura
tion as president of the United States, he
and-Mr. Davis were friends." CoL Pat

Wendell Phillips not only surpassed all
other platform orators in eloquence, but
ho surpassed all in habits of generosity.
He would never take more than Ids fair
proportion of the house receipts, no matter
what had been the stipulated compensa

an extremely stormy night, when his au
dience was only an average, that I handed
him $125 in a roll, saying, "Your fee, Mr.
Phillips!" He quietly answered: "What
were your receipts last night?" I told him
that we did not rely on casual tickets, but
on course tickets sold beforehand. He
opened the roll, put $50 in his pocket, and
handed back the rest, saying: "My bnsi
ness is to assist, not to destroy." His
habits were those of courteous, unobtru
sive interest in every person and enter
