ATLANTIS. Out in the chill seas of yesterday, Where the water are arching and break in tear-spray, And the bent of the waves that come crashing in pain Are the eob-throbs of anguish and soula gone insane, There's a dear little island the Land of We Two, Calling to me, sweetheart calling of you. Back o'er the waters and through the tear spray, Saddened and gladdened I'm sailing away; Back to the Land of You Must and You Can't, Back to the game with its big rule of Shan't; Dear little island and wonderful one, Why In the world were you ever begun? Herbert Kaufman. ARRANGEMENTS MADE. Much interest is being manifested In the concert to be given Sunday afternoon in the Murray theater for the benefit of the Tuberculosis Hospital fund, the hour three o'clock. The fact that it was recently stated by the Wayne County Society for the Prevention of Tuberculosis that with one thousand dollars such an institution could be started led, the director of this concert to offer to give all the profits of the latter, after the expenses had been paid, to the organization's treasury for the purpose of starting a fund for such a hospital. The need of this is recognized by everyone and it is hoped that this may result in the amount being later brought together. The program will be given by two well known concert artists, Madame ; Lawrence, former harp soloist with the Thomas orchestra and who will give groups of harp numbers, and J. Louis Shenk, a baritone singer, widely known for his artistic interpretations and who recently made a tour with Mary Garden.

The clock at Hampton court palace derived its unpleasant title by reason of a superstition that whenever any one long resident in the palace dies the clock immediately stops. It Is of record that when Anne of Denmark, the queen of James 1.. died the old timepiece was striking four and that It stopped almost before the last stroke sounded. Since that time it is said to have repeated this grisly proceeding each time a royal personage within its jurisdiction died. At any rate, the clock has an interesting history quite aside from this, it was the first astronomical timepiece made in England, being constructed in 1;.40 for Henry VIII. Thirty-two years ago it was brought out of a shed wherein it had lain neglected for nearly half a century, and by order of the then secretary of the office of works It was re-erected in the courtyard opposite the entrance to the state apartments. There is historical evidence to the effect that it was built by one Nicholas Cratzer. a German astronomer who came to England at the Invitation of Cardinal Wolsey. This old timepiece tells the hour, the month, the day of the month, the po sition of the sun and the number of days since the beginning of the year, the phases of the moon and Its age. the hour at which it crosses the meridian and the time of high water at London bridge. The time required to wind it is half an hour every week. The weights have a descent of over sixty feet Harper's. THE VANISHING SEA COW. A Marina Curiosity That Is Rapidly Noaring Extinction. One of the largest fish that has inhabited the waters of the gulf of Mexico and the south Atlantic coast of this country and which is almost extinct Is known as the manatee. It was found in. great numbers a century ago. and even a few years back this crea ture was quite plentiful in certain locaiities. It is very gentle for a large fish and easily captured in heavy nets, which ore nsiinllv Ktrprrhed across the mouths of rivers emptying into the south Ati ,,if n AfoTtr.n Tho fleih Iantic or the golf of Mexico. Ihe nesrj is very delicious and brings a high price, having a strong resemblance to the very finest veal. The skeleton Is valued at $100, and the skin if removed properly and cared for by those who understand its properties will bring a like amount. This fish is often from ten to twelve feet in length and weighs about 2.000; pounds. It is so gentle it will not! strike the light craft that happens to be near it, and when captured it shows no resistance whatever. It is safe to say that in the next quarter of a century this creature will become extinct unless specimens are preserved simply to prevent the complete loss of one of our most wonderful sea creatures. It lives wholly on salt water vegetation and growths found in the mouths of the rivers emptying into the sea. New York World. A Sinecure. "I never worry or hurry."

John Lamon, Who Likes to Po a a Hodcarrter. Photo by American Prms Association. Last summer there was a baby parade at Jersey City, and anions its many beautiful and interesting exhibits was Master John Lamon. who masqueraded as a hodcarrler. John wns one of the hits of the parade. Indeed, he created more laughter than anything else in line. Since then John j and his hod have been in demand for numerous entertainments In which children took part. So recently as Christmas John appeared at a costume show given by a settlement house iu New York, and needless to say he was hailed with delight by all beholders. John is a good natured lad and is pleased whenever he can contribute to the happiness of others. Doubtless he and his hod will be seen many times this winter in his comical makeup.
