John Greenleaf Whlttier used to declare that at a very early age be knew himself to be a real poet and would often relate, writes Mrs. AbbyJ. Woodman In her "Reminiscences of'Whlttler's Life at Oak Knoll," an amusing experience when he was a student at the Haverhill academy. Mrs. Woodman gives It in Mr. Whittier's own words: There Is but little doubt that at the sge of twenty I felt myself to be a real poet, somewhat unknown to fame, but sufficiently acknowledged as such by the committee directing tbe dedication of the new academy tor them to invite me to read an original poem On that occasion. Robert Dinsmore, an old Scotch farmer In Windham and a writer of rhyme and doggerel verse, was also invited to do tbe same. The honor of leading the precession which marched through tbe streets of Haverhill to the new academy was given to the two poets. I often laugh when I recall tbe scene to memory. The hale old Scotchman, short and plethoric, bis uncertain step and bearing slightly exhilarated by a generous draft of old Scotch whisky before we started, was somewhat ot a contrast to me, a rather tall and slender Quaker lad in Quaker bat and coat and half frightened out of my wits by the honor heaped upon me. However, we delivered our poems all right, and I am thinking that must have been the time when I was dubbed "the Quaker poet." A STRANGE LAKE. Sulphur Island's Acid Waters Will Eat Up Boats. A strange lake exists in the center of Sulphur island, off New Zealand. It is fifty acres in extent, about twelve feet in depth and fifteen feet above the level of tbe sea. The most remarkable characteristic of this lake is that tbe water contains vast quantities of hydrochloric and sulphuric acids hlAslng and bubbling at a temperature of 110 degrees F. Tbe dark green colored water looks particularly uninviting. Dense clouds of sulphuric fumes constantly roll off this boiling caldron, and care has to be exercised In approaching this lake to avoid the risk of suffocation. On the opposite side of the lake may be seen the tremendous blowholes, which when in full blast present an awe Inspiring sight The roar of the steam as It rushes forth into tlx air is deafening, and often huge bowlders and stones are hurled ont to a height of several hundred feet by the various internal forces of nature. A boat can be launched on the lake and If proper care be observed the very edges of the blowholes may be safely explored. Some idea of tbe strength of the acid saturated water of this lake may be gathered from the fact that a boat almost dropped to pieces after all the passengers had been landed, as the rivets had corroded nnder tbe Influence of tbe adds.

At a time when there was great snfCering among the' people from lack of food and when famine In its worst form was threatened Pope Alexander VI. had made arrangements for the erection of a magnificent palace. The best architects had been employed, and tL plans had ben submitted and ac cepted. and an accomplished builder had been sent for to com from Venice, a man whose work had won for him renown and who was known to bo a just and upright man. . The builder had arrived, and at an appointed , time he waited upon bis holiness to receive tbe plans and make bis estimates.. 'There is one thing yet to be done." said the pope. "There has been no proper inscription or legend thought of to be placed over the main entrance of the palace. It should be put above the jreat gate. You have had experience. Do you think of an Inscription that would be appropriate? "If your holiness would pardon me for tbe liberty, I might suggest one most appropriate at this time." "You are pardoned in advance," said the pope, smiling. "Now, what shall it ber "Sovereign pontiff, let it be thus: Command that these stones be made bread r" The pope was visibly and deeply affected. He paid the builder munificently for his expenses of coming and going, and Instead of building his palace he fed the hungry ones of bis children. Break In Monotony. The monotony of our calling," says the principal reader of a metivolitan magazine, "Is sometimes broken a bit by the naivete shown by some of eur friends who favor us with manuscripts. "Not long ago I picked up a story sent by a novice in Indiana, in the entire length of which, numbering some ten thousand words, there was not a single mark of punctuation except an occasional period. The author was, however, thoughtful enough to append this note to his effort: "'Mr. Editor: Please insert decimal points to suit "Philadelphia Ledger. WahbIo Wall Paper.

;MT0 THE JAWS OF DEATH.

;V Advance Undor Fire From Behind BarricacUs That Literally Mown1 Down the Charging Troops A Hand to Hand Conflict In tho Streets. William Guldner, a survivor f the Vjatlie of Gravelotte. the most hard , fought victory of the Franco-PrussU war. tells in Harper's Magaelae how he sat tbe victory as color bearer ct hi regiment: "It nmt have been. I think, about 4 3'clock when Colonel von Boehn rode to th head of the regiment, and we all straightened quick, as on parade. And he said sharp a few words, something like. 'Men. tbe regiment has a good name, and you will give it a still bet ter one. I was in front and could heat rart of what he said. The colonel led us to the left, and we crossed a railroad track and went through another little white village, and then we faced a slop-a long slope with a Tillage on It, which the French hnd made into a fort: and we. our regiment and others, were to capture It, and thei-e were many Frenchmen and cannon there. The colonel rode on a horse, he and the majors and the adjutants. Our captains usually rode, too, but this day the captains sent their horses back and went on foot. "And fcoon our first man began to fall, for we came under the fire of the ehassepot. . It wss hard, for we could not see tbe enemy. These first ones were many sharpshooters in a ditch, and tbe noise of their firing was like that of a ooffce mill kr-r-r-r-r-r! They drew off as we went forward. It wi only at a walk that we went- a steady walk. Just as if there were no bullet there. "And now we would run forward fifty yards and throw ourselves flat,' then another fifty yards and the halt and tbe falling flat, and each time w could see the village that was a for. tress nearer. . : e "And once when we were lying down and I saw that the officers were standing. Just cool and quiet, it came to me that a man has to pay in such ways t be an officer. "1 aaw the colonel fall. He was shot from his horse and carried back. - The first major, ho took command, and he galloped to the skirmish line, and be was shot. Then the second major, too, was shot, and he tried to get up, but he could not stand, and be sat on a big ston and shouted: Go ont Go on? And he took a gun from a deed man and fired It. "We were ordered to fix bayonets, and that made us glad, but even yet tbe men carried their rlfiee on their Shoulders as they raa. We were not near enough to charg with bayonets. " "I wish I coald tell you what It wae like as we got near that Tillage of Pt. PrlTat tbe noise, tbe smoke, tbe flashes, tbe falling men and only one desire In our hearts. There were three sergeants In tbe color section, one at each side of me. And first tbe one at my right was killed. Tbea the on at my left was shot-eight big bullets in his body from a mitrailleuse eight! Tet be afterward got well, while many a man died from only one little bullet. - "And at last we went at a bayonetcharge, and for the first time there was a cheer, a wild and saTsge cheer, and we ran on, eager to plunge the, bayonets, and we could see as we came nesr tbe village that the French were firing from behind barricades and gar , den walls and from window. "And we looked into the wild face, of the French, and they met us band V to hand. Ah, we climbed over walls and barricades, and we fired and bayoneted, and we fought them in the streets! ' "On and on we went.' It was a wild time of shooting, bayoneting, wrestling., clubbing,. shouting. On and a, but it was slow work and terrible, far . tbe French fought for every step. "I was at the front, for I had the colors. There were a few officers still ' teft, acd tbey were shouting and wittng their swords, and other regiments ' stormed into the village with us, and after awhile I can't say how long the place was ours. "As I tell It to you It seems perhaps a simple thing. But when the regl-, sent was paraded before tbe battle began we were more than 2,000 men end more than fifty officers, and we lost In the dght forty officers and more than a thousand men. Yes, that was the loss of just my regiment alone. It was morderlsch. but it was necessary. "Well, it was over. Tbe village was blazing, and many a dead man lay in the ruins. Some sat upright, dead, with their backs against walls." India's Fame, Tbey were holding an "exam" in as east London school, and the teacher was explaining the chief products of the Indian empire.
