MYTHS OF THE NORTE

CHARMING AND GROTESQUE LANDIC TRADITIONS.

Sweden there are several of theso rocks, three 'of which bear the name of Valhalla, the warrior's heaven, because they were used as'a sort of a vestibule to that glorious hall of

Odin. One of these rocks, called Staf'va Hall, used to bo tho scene of remarkable annual festi vals. A number of people, after singing and feasting, and entering fully into the dancing and general merriment, would throw themselves from the cliff into the lake below, in tho samo manner as the classic writers tell us /that the Scythians and Hypoboreans used to do. But if nono of these reliefs: wero at hand, and a natural death wad unavoidable, as was frequently the case after Christianity bad put aii end to these practices, heroes generally comsoied themselves by putting on their com plete armor, thus meeting their end fully /equipped for battle, as a sort of protest against the ignominious death forced upon them against their will.

THE HOUSE or GLADNESS.

The reward of all this valor awaits the warrior in the dwelling of Odin and Gladsheim (house of gladness), where in the glittering hall, Valhalla, All father gathers the souls of all who died tho death of heroes. Over tho field of battle hover the Valkyries, maids of Odin, who choose tho champions to bo honored by death, and conduct them to this ubode of perpetual joy. Here the coiling, splendid with shields, rests on column* of spears, whilo over the benches hang glisten ing coats of mail. This dwelling stands in the shining grove of Glaser, where every loaf is of pure red gold. That is why gold is sometimes called Glaser's leaven.

On the roof of Valhalla, feeding on the leaves of tho tree Lerad (the protector) stands a goat which yields an abundance of moad for gods and heroes and feeding from (-ho samo treo is tho stag Eikth jrncr (knotty horned), from whoso antlers drips so much water that it tills thirty-six rivers, twelvo of whirl) water the celestial plains twelvo the abodes of men and twelve the chill regions of Niflheim, where reigns Hela or Hel, who takes clmrgo of all souls not having mado their exit from tho body by tho prescribed route. In Valhalla swords serve to warn tho inhabi touts, and tho wholo palace i» resplendent with gold

The amusements of the blest are quite in accord with tho views they entertained in life, for we aro told that every day, as soon as they are dressed, they ride out to tho field of battle and there cut each other to pieces until near meal time, when, pre.-rto! tlioy put their various fragments together again in proper order, like so many animated puzzle cords, don their armor, mount thoir steeds and pranco amicably bock to Valhalla, in timo for dinner. There they are served at table by tho Valkyries, tho same fair ones who, hovering gver tho earthly fluid of fray, •first choose them to enter this Paradise of tho brave. As fast as the dishes are emptied tbeso maidens 611 them again with meat or with nuvul, for neither tho food tior the drink •ever gives out.

But to say, as somo writers do, that they driuk from tho skulls of thoir enemies is neither truth nor reason for their enemies, if they died honorably, are in Valhalla, and of course using their skulls for normal purposes. If they died ingloriously, they are woaring all their bones iu Niflheim. Tho lit•eral translation of King Ilagnar Lodbrok's •dyiug utterance, which has caused tho curi--ous mistake, Is "Soon shall wo drink ale out •of tho curved branches of tho skull," referring, no doubt, to the horns of animals, which wero tho common drinking cups of the Odlnic worshipers.

Now, 1 am afraid thut literal translation has let out a fact dangerous to the projects •of any poet lying in wait for on illustration. I have not only roblxvi him of a pet horror in depriving him of the uso of the traditional gruesome beaker, but have mentioned ale as the drink of jjotls and heroes! nevertheless, like littlo George, 1 cannot toll a lie, and ale is tho word—the veritablo "wino of Iwuiey' described of old by Aristotle, Theophrastua, Herodotus et al., and perpetuated to this day under the musical names of London porter, German lager, and various other names which will bo readily recallod by those acquainted with the mundane article. Lot the fact be what comfort it may to those who love it not wisely but too well that it is the delight of sueh a numerous and brilliant celestial company.

BOILED PORK AND BKK&

Another shock which truth compels me to inflict tender literary iwyor, turning the rum I nator into tho ruminant, so to speak, is the statement that the u«at of the Valhailians is pork! Think of it—boiled pork washed down with beer I Facts are stubborn things —what shall the poet do with this one? Neetar and ambrosia are so much better because, perhaps, you do not know what they are I One writer of repute makes tho pork and beer much ea&ior to swallow by explaining that the words from which they are derived signify "air, fire and water" (which may be freely translated air and firewater If you derfn», with "uothiag earthly in thorn," and transformed by Asgardiao alchemy into "the purest and most delicate breath of the air"—teas nutrious, no doubt, than the pork and beer, but then more poetic, too, and we are grateful

The boar, Siehrimner, whoso flesh food for the heroes, has, Uke each of his devourees, the happy propensity to put himiielf together •gain as fast as he is cut to pieces, .so that at tho close of the battle every L\y they (hid him on the table ready for busitKm

Valhalla, delightful though youi perceive it to be, is not, however, the ultimate p&radise of the bravo, for we are told that the abode of the Asa* shall not endure forev er, but that at the south there a dwelling place named Gimle, which at the twilight of fche gods (the final upheaval of all things shall escape the fire, though almost all of even tike Ans perish.

Quick Work Between County Lines to Save Getting Another KJcense. County Clerk Dunsmore was greatly surprised at receiving tho following telegram from Santa Ana: "Can you meet Santa Fe overland east bound train to-night with marriage license blank' Sigbaud A. Quale."

Clerk Dunsmore was astonished, but was on hand When tbe train rolled in from tbe south, and a rather pale, but still handsome, young gentleman leaped from the front platform of tho

Pullman

and hurried toward him. There

wero a few questions and answers, and the stranger had taken the oath and the blank was in his possession.

It so happened that aboard the train—in the same Pullman, in fact—was ex-Chief of Police Davis, who was on his way to Pasadena. Mr. Davis takes a paternal interest in young people about to be married, and he found no difficulty in entering into conversation with the prospective groomsman. Ho learned that Quale was a young easterner who had quailed before Che rigora of the climate of hi3 Wisconsin home and fled to California for his health. He was very wealthy. During his short stay here ho had regained vigor, but had looked into the laughing eyes of one of Santa Ana's daughters anil lost his heart there. Ho was now on his way homo again, proposing to get married by tho way. Why he did not marry before startiug is still an unsettled question. "Dy tho way." said Chief Davi§, "will you bo married in Pasadena?" T/ "No," replied Quale. "Tho train does not stop long enough thero. We will wait till we reach San Bcrnandino." "But your marriage license is no good there, having been issued in Los Angeles county."

Tho look that como over the young man's fac:i was pitiful, but the information was correct, and ho did not know what to do. Davis, taking pity upon him, promised to hunt up a minister or justico during the brief timo that tho train remained at Pasadena. Arriving there, Mr. Davis hurried out and saw upon tho depot platform gentleman whose looks were clerical, but who was a stranger to him. "Are you a minister?" "Yes, sir#1' roplied tho stranger. "Then," said Davis, "thero ia a young couplo in that car who waut to seo you very badly."

Tho minister leaped upon tho train without hesitation. Tho conductor gavo the signal to go ahead. The traiu moved out. Young Qualo and his brido stood up, and while tho cars wero swiftly circling the bend to Lamanda park, the marriage service was recited to the accompaniment of tho rattle of tho wheels ovor tho rails. It was the first marriago on record 011 a railway train in motion in this county, or whether it was an elopement or not is as yet unknown, for Santa Ana has not been hoard from.—Los Anglos Cor. San Francisco Chronicle.

The Cranberry.

Tho American cranborry differs from those found in foreign countries by being a larger and mora upright plant, and tho leaves ore larger and not rolled back so far. The berries aro of a more brilliant color and larger. Whero tho soil is sandy they are found growing in bogs and aro more often found in elevated situations. A rake is used in collecting thom. Sometimes they are cultivated in gardens, but they require a very moist place anil grow better ou tho margin of a pond. Tho rod whortleberries are rolri under the :aino of cranberries in Aberdeen and other places, and aro used for the samo purpose. A species of tho cranberry is a native of Virginia and Carolina, and is a shrub two feet high aud r.rows taoro liko tho whortleberry than ho cranborry. Tho fruit is uotod for its dtlicious flavor and is rcmarkablo for it* transparency. It has not received the attention or cultivation that it deserves.— Cood Housekeeping.

Prldts in the Family.

Iu tho oltlen times tho no^rocsof tho southern plantation and of tho household wero as proud of tho social position of their masters as any of the children, and as anxious for the ood name of any member of the family, 'he Sou horn Bivouac onco told of an old Florida mammy who showed her pride in a juaint and characteristic style.

Her young masters, both lads, were conscripted and ordered to Ponsacola. They wero taking a tearful leave of friends, when tho old "mammy" exclaimed: "Now, young masters, stop dis hyer cryIn' go and fight for your country like men, and mind, don't disgrace tho family, nor me nuther.''

Jk?* TEKRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MATTi

A HELPING HAND.

Bow the Newsboys Awlit One Another. Leading the Blind. AH tbe milk of human kindness is not to be found in tbe hearts of the great and prosperous. Down among tbe little gamins of Newspaper row a charity as sweet and springing from as pure motives as is aaj carried on by the great incorporated institutions societies which grace this city. If the busy throng which crowd that thoroughfare bawl time to notice anything they would see several timet each day some poor, blind unfortunate being led through the intricacies of the crowd by one of those grotesque, ragged urchins whose cry of "las terd&hun" is heard there from until long after darkness settles down.

By following a pair of this sort tbe other day the reporter becamo convinced that the street gamins, who, some moralists say, are tbe bursting seed whence criminals grow, have gentle, noble impulses, which would, if properly nurtured, bring them to better things. The boy tras tbe regulation gamin ragged, dirty, with pinched features, but withal as merry as a cricket. Tho blind man looked like* what he was—a poor outcast, perhaps made so by bis infirmity. Through the crowd the boy led him down into the delivery room of one of the daily papers, and, after placing him in a position in the line of "newsies" waiting for the next edition co come off the press, I10 ran out. At the door he was stopped, and under tho potent influence of a bit cf silver stepped into a doorway and submitted to a little questioning. "Who's do blind feller I Why, dat's Blind Charlie. Is he mo farder? Naw. He's poor bloke wot live down hero on Park row. Bo's 'e kin git de coin ter live on he has to sell papers. Wot was Ileadin'Hm ferf Does yer tink be could git tro'de crowd hisself widout any eyes? Does I tink I'm good to lead him? Naw. Why, any newsy *ud help Charlie or any of der blind fellers wot's in der bisncss. Is dere odders like Charlie? Dere's tree or four of 'em wot live down 'ere on Park row and gits up early likes we da Den dey comes out onter de street, and any newsy wot sees 'em 'U lead 'em to de office fer papers. When dey gets a stock 'nuther newsy who has a stand near where do blind feller locates '11 lead 'im dere. When he sells out 'nuther newsy who sees'm '11 lead 'im back, and so dey scrapes along. We'se all willin' ter help 'em, except der Dagos, and dey's too mean ter help anybody."

Inquiry of the delivery clerks proved the boy's statement to be true. There aro a half dozen blind newsboys, or rather newsmen, in this city who owe tho fact that they are not sent to tho workhouse simply to tho kindness of their little co-workers. As tbe boy raid, tbe "newsies" all know them, and whenever they seo ono of the unfortunates wanting to get to the newspaper offices for a stock or at the newspaper office wanting to get to a favorite corner some "embryonic criminal" always volunteers as a guide.

Another incideht showing the generous impulses of these outdoor waifs. It occurred just in front of The Times building the other evening: "Hello, Stumpy,'* said one gamin as he met another, "have yer fed yet?"

Naw," replied Stumpy, "I guess dis isde eve I don't eat." O No coin?" asked the other."

Nixey red," was the response. "I owed Gimpey fourteen cents and paid him so 1b 'e could get some shoes." "How's yer appetite?" was the next query. "Oh, dere's never any trouble on dat line," was the laconic response. "Well, Stump," said the little fellow, "I tell yer. I got twenty cents and I was going to have as crumptious feed but I reckon Hi hav« to let Del's slide ter night. Let's adjourn ter de beanery."

He took Stump's arm and the two walked off. Tho beauty of the act was that it was done without the least condescension, but- a frank I-may-be-there-myself-some-day air that was delightful.—New York Times.

Tho Century Dictionary.

Tho late Dr. Holland, the predecessor^of Mr. Gilder it* tho editorial chair of The Century, suggostcxl to Mr. Roswell Smith, president of Tho Century company, the advisar bility of buying Webster's dictionary and continuing its publication in New York. Upon investigation it was found that this was impraetieahlo. But tho attention of the management having been thus culled to tbe subject of lexicographic work as a means of employing the resources of the company, they somo timo afterward purchased tho plates of the English Imperial dictionary— tho new revision of Dr. John Ogilvie's work. Their llrst purpose was only to strike out the purely English spelling of words, and to add words mid definitions in American usage, but they soon found it necessary to insert much now and original matter, and ultimately they determined to discard the English work altogether, and begin practically anew.

In this way was begun the compilation of The Century dictionary. This was in 1882, and the work is not yet finished, though it has so far approached completion that the company expect to begin publishing in the year 1889. The contract for the paper to be used in the work has already been lot, and it is probable that within the next six months the first installments of the dictionary will be issued. The general scope of the work is a combination of the uses of a dictionary and of an encyclopedia. With the exception of tho English Etymological dictionary, now In process of compilation in London, it is tha most elaborate undertaking of the kind so far projected either in England or America. Mr. Smith states that the cost will be upward of half a million dollars.—New Yonk 8tar.

AARON BURR'S GRIEF.

Deep Sorrow of the Man, Who Was Believed to Be Wholly Bad. There are some who suppose that CoL Burr had no virtues. This is a mistake. He was true in his friendships, and would go any length to serve a friend, and he had also the strongest affections. I shall never forget the incidents concerning the loss of his daughter Theodosia, then wife of Governor Alston, of South Carolina. Soon after CoL Burr's return from Europe to New York, he arranged for her to come on and visit him, and she set out, as is known, from Georgetown, in a small schooner called the Patriot. Timothy Green, a retired lawyer- in New York, a most worthy man, and an old friend of CoL Burr, went on by land to accompany her. The fact of the departure of the vessel with his daughter and Mr. Green on board was communicated by letter from Governor Alston to CoL Burr, and he looked forward with anticipations of joy to the meeting which after so many years of separation was to take place between himself and his dear child. A full time for the arrival of the vessel at New York transpired, but she did not come.

As day after day passed, and still nothing was seen or heard of the vessel or of his daughter, that face which had before shown no gloom or sadness began to exhibit the sign of deep and deeper concern.« Every means wero resorted to to obtain information, but no tidings were ever heard of the vessel or of her upon wljom all the aCections of his nature had been bestowed. "Hope deferred" did in this case, indeed, make sick and nearly crush tho heart. His symbol, which he loved occasionally to stamp upon the seal of a letter, was a rock in the tempest tossed ocean, which neither wind nor wave could mova But his firm and manly nature, which no danger or reverse, nor any of the previous circumstances of life had been able to shake, was near giving way. It was interesting, though painful, to witness his struggle, but he did rise superior to his grief, and the light oncomoro shown on his countenance. But it was over afterward a subdued light. There was a story after ward that the vessel had been seized by the crew and tho ]Messengers killed, with tho view of converting her into a pirate, but this story has never been traced to any reliable source although a publication was mado at one time that a confession to this effect had been made by some dying sailor.—Judge John Greenwood.

Careful of Books. O*

Maiiy a careless person may Well loam lesson from the reverence felt by Henry Bradshaw, librarian of Cambridge university, for what might be called the "personality" of books. He absolutely couid not bear to see them roughly or carelessly handled, and what he would have said to those persons who make nothing of turning down a page or making pencil marks on a fresh margin, one would rather imagine than hear.

He never permitted a reader in the library to place ono open book upon another, but would say immediately, on noting the act

Oh, please let me take it off 1" A pen left standing in an ink stand proved an equal eyesore he was always expecting to find the ink spattered or spilled on bis dear books.

Dr. Zupitza, a dear friend of the librarian was one day making notes in ink from tho famous manscript of Bede's "Ecclesiastical History" in the university library. Mr. Bradshaw happened to espy him, and, rushing up to him, seized the ink stand and carried it away.

You Germans havo no reverence!" ho cried, as he did so, wisely concluding that so prccious a manuscript should be approached by nothing inoro dangerous than a lead pencil.

The book lover will appreciate his feelings, and tho book destroyer will do well to take pattern by them.—Youth's Companion^-

That extreme tired feeling which Is so distressing and often so unaccountable in the spring months, is entirely overcome by Hood's Sarsaparilla, which tones the whole body, purifies the blood, cures scrofula and all humors, cures dyspepsia, creates an appetite, rouses the torpid liver, braces up the nerves, and clears the mind. We solicit a comparison of Hood's Sarsaparilla with any other blood purifier in the market for purity, economy, strength, and medicinal merit.

"I had no appetite or strength, and felt tired all the time. I attributed my condition to scrofulous humor. I had tried several kinds of medicine without benefit. But as soon as I had taken half a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla, my appetite was restored, and my stomach felt better. I have now taken nearly three bottles, and I never was so well." Mrs. Jessie F.
