MAPLE SUGARING.

Oh, we went maple sugaring Ail by some golden hap, When wounded trees were jeweling

With beads of pearly pap!

We dallied through the waking grove And understood the spring, The universal youth that drove

Our very blood to sing.

We peered the drier places out And skipped the young abysses, Where last year's leaves lay all about

As thick as next year's kisses.

The little shanty lured u« on With stnokelike tresses floating," And where the sledges smoothed the way

I beau'd you, fondly noting

How like a slender maple tree You were, though fairer, lither. Ah, you were bodied spring to me, *.:c

As thrilling, nymphish, blither!

Well, over logs and 1xgs wo clambered To where the caldrons brewed Mere nap to sirup and enambered

The liquor neuter hued.

The cordial farmer smiled to see Hie love that aurcoled us, But neither ear nor heed had we

For aught he may have told us.

I proffered you a pewter spoon, In sirup dipped and laved, Which, whjtt your lips but touched-so soon 'Twas golden all and graved.

I simpered, "Sweets unto the sweet," And all the Btock of youth, But somehow triteness took new life

Hypcrbclo was truth.

Oh, we went maple sugaring All by twine golden chance, And the clustered trees liko bridesmaids waved

Long life to our romance! —Rupert Hughes in New York Sun.

THE WIFE STEALEB.

The Markoff family came from Russia toward the end of tho last century, and Dcmctcr Markoff, tho third descendant of this family, was already a largo landowner In Hungary and could not speak a syllable of tho Russian tongue, Demeter III was a famous man in his time, first, bocauso ho co aId rido down the strongest horse In 0110 day secondly, bccauso ho could swallow the largest glass of wine at ono gulp (and afterward cat tho glass itself) thirdly, because, however large his lncomo might bo, ho could always spend twico as much, and, fourthly, because, no matter what woman ho met, he could always either fascinate her, or, failing that, marry her—and within a twelvemonth tho lady in question would punctually be abolished from tho face of tho earth. When ho reached his forty-eighth year, he had just buried his third wife. Sho was a good soul, thoy say, never complained, and died quietly and without protest.

By his first wife ho had a son, Dometor Markoff IV. At tho timo of which wo writo this young man was 24 years of ago. In many respects ho failed to rosomblo his father. He lacked that gentleman's heroic qualities, being a quiet and economical young man, fond of reading, painting and music. Wine and tobacco loth mado him sick, and if a pretty girl looked at him ho wonld blush. Demeter III was irritated by his eon's virtues and called him-a booby, but ho was his only son, all tho same, and ho could not disown him. Paternal oxamplo had no effect ujxm him. In vain did iiemeter HI take him to. boar hunts— tho son simply began to paint tho forest sconery iu vain did ho give him money to spend—ho bought nothing but books or pictures In vain did ho take him to places of amusement—ho simply wont to sloop while tho fuiv was going on.

Ono day, however, Demeter III was astonished by tho news that his son wished to marry. 1 tho adjoining county there was a charming young girl who was tho youngest of six daughters of a small landed proprietor. It was on the occasion of a vintage festival that the youth had first met her and ever since then ho had been accustomed, in tho soft moonlight, to dream away his time in her company and to talk about tho stars and tho flowers, as respectable people are supposed to dowhon they are in love. Tho namo of this young girl wiks Angel a.

Voting Do meter Markoff now carno to his fat her and asked him If ho would bo good enough to journey into the adjoining county and obtain for him tho necessary consent to the projected marriage. "With pleasure," replied his father, "Is sho pretty?" "Her beauty Is transcendent." "Ah, you think so because sho is tho first girl you liavo niotl Is sho fond of youf" "Sho worships ruo." "Is sho young?" "Only 18." "That is tho most Interesting ago. Don't lie afraid. I will go and manage it. I will bring her back. You can consider her already hero."

Demeuvr 111 had his horses swiftly harnessed—five leautiful Arab Rteeda-—and ho drove thorn into the neighboring ooun ty at such a terrillo rate that thoy were pretty well lamed before they got there. Directly he set eyes on Angelica ho saw that sho was Indeed tho loveliest of women also that she had a deeply rooted affection for his son.

Angelica, as already said, was only 18, and at that age tho fancy rules over the senses. Secret sympathies and inexplicit bio magnetic influences operate In the soul. These things whispered to Miss An* gelloa that to bo drawn by five Arab steeds was more delightful than to be drawn by two and that it was plerusanter to eat off silver dishes than off china plates, and, In deed, Deiueter IV possessed less property than his father, for while the latter owned large tracts of country nothing belonged to his artistic son but the landscape on canvas which he had himself painted In tho paternal territory.

In orio word, Angelica gave her hand to Deiueter ill instead of to his offspring. Tho matrimonial go between kept his wor\i—he brought the young lady home— but Demeter IV was sufficiently astonish' ed when his father told him that she did not come as his wife, but as his stepmother.

Tho younger Demeter now found It necessary to quit Hungary altogether, for all the Inhabitant!! were laughing at his expense. Be went to Russia and lived in an old mansion of his father's at Podolia. Thence he never returned.

After that the people at home told all sorts of ludicrous stories as to the life he was leading in Russia. Some said that he sat all day long In the comer of a room opposite the portrait of the girl he had wished to marry, that the spiders were indu*trloudly spinning their webs over this plcturs, that theNv had almost covered' it from vknv, but that tho ejrw of Angelica were still vfoibte, and that Iiemeter IV would not leave the chamber until they, too. wtsv concealed by the filmy meshes. Others said ho was making erperiment* in chemistry and trying the effect of certain

poisons upon dogs and cats. A third party riaid he had become a vegetarian and passed his life in weighing up tbfc precise amount of food which he considered necessary for his next meal. But they were all wrong, and at length their statements were confuted by a latter which arrived from Demeter IV, addressed to his father.

It should be mentioned, by the way, that the beautiful Angelica had indeed died within the twelvemonth. On the occasion of a ball Demeter III was so drunk that he pointed a gun at his wife because die was chatting too merrily with a good looking young officer. She thereupon fled from the ballroom in terror, rushed out into the cold night air in her muslin dress and satin slippers, took a chill and shortly died therefrom. But she had attained her ambition, and if she had married the younger Demeter she might perhaps still have been alive. As Mrs. Demeter IY she would not have been lying in such a beautiful velvet covered and gilded coffin nor have been drown to her vault by five such beautiful Arab steeds.

From the younger Demeter's letter to his father it appeared that he had been sc far successful in forgetting Angelica that he was about to marry another girl. Years had already passed. The elder Denxeter was 58 years old, while his son was still only 34, Thus the latter was now in a position to write to his father in these terms:

MY DEAR FATHER—I again intend to many, and I have discovered the most beautiful girl imaginable for my wife. I want you to be present at the ceremony. This time I am not afraid that you will carry off my bride, for ten years have elapsed, and you have now lost y6ur power of fascination. Ten years ago I was a mere child and you were a man. Today I am a man and you are getting well on into childhood. Besides, my fiancee loves me with profound devotion. Therefore if you wish me happiness come at once to my approaching wedding. DEMETER.

These words inflamed Demeter III. His pride was wounded. A wicked desire took possession of him. "What sort of girl is this your master intends to marry?" he inquired of the valet who had brought the letter. "A most lovely creature, sir," was the reply. "Is she young?" "Still almost a child." "Do they lovo each other?" "Like a pair of dov6s." "Well, go back and tell my son that I shall bo present at his wedding."

Demeter III lost not a moment, but traveled posthaste. Reaching Lemberg, he Mi ere happened to meet his son's coachman. "What are you doing here, Dimltru?" ho inquired.

Tho servant stammered and showed that ho would liko to lie, but a handful of gold, promptly administered, induced him to tell tho truth. Ho said that his master got quite alarmed on hearing that the fa ther did not mind taking tho trouble of journeying to Podolia, and he had therefore arranged that tho wedding should tako place two days earlier, sending his coachman to Lemberg to buy certain Hungarian commodities for tho marriage feast.

Demeter III leaped upon a swift horse, for his carriage was not quick enough, and galloped furiously toward Podolia. Two horses fell beneath him, and ho arrived at. the church just as tho marriago was about to be solemnized. Ho dismounted, and the cevemony was interrupted In order that father and son might greet each other, while the bride remained near tli altar. She was covered with a thick veil which completely hid her features. Demeter III looked with proud contempt upon his son, whoso face was sunk with a lingering ailment and from whose color it could be seen how many months he hail to live, whereas he, tho father, was still vigorous and robust, Demoter IV threw an imploring glance at his paternal relative, who simply rccelvcd it with a sinilt and then walked up to tho waiting bride and whispered in her car: "Beautiful woman, I am Demeter Markoff III, while that man is my son. His hands tremble, mine are steady his are ompty, mino are full of gold. Compare u.together and choose which you will prefer toieod you tc the altar."

Dldora—such was the lady's namemade her decision with very little liesita tion, and It was tho father whom she nl lowed to tako her to the altar and make her his wife. She swore to him eternal dovotlon. Demeter III was radiant with victory and glanced round tho church see what had become of his son. The tor was standing with his back against a pillar, watching the ceremony from thence. Ho was not weeding, as on a former occa slon.

As the party was leaving tho church hwhispered in his father's ears, "Good luc!s to you, Demeter III!"

Tho elderly bridegroom took off tho veil from tho face of his bride. He beheld, not a thing of beauty, but an ugly, crooked mouthed, one eyed horror—an object so very ugly that you could not find

another

like it if you searched all over the earth. From this wife ho could not escape so easily as from tho others?. He could not drive her away from hlin and she refused to die. He lived with her till his own death. She was not afraid of his anger, for sho could swear better than he. If ho drank, so did Dldora if he attempted to beat her, she gave him a worse thrashing In return. Demeter found it necessary to shave off his board otherwise Dldora was fond of pulling It out for him. She insisted on accompanying him whenever he visited his friends, and, being generally in drink, she would .quarrel with him in their houses and expose him to the keenest ridicule. At length he decided never to go out of doors again, and he died in seclusion. —Englishwoman.

The Man Who Flew In 1713.

He wrote to Mr. Ironside of Tho Guardian: "I have made considerable progress in the art of flying. I flutter about my room two or throe hours inn morning, and whqn my wings are on can go above a hundred yards at a hop, step and jump. 1 can fly already as well as a turkey cock Upon the next Thanks* giving day it is my design to sit astride the dragon upon Bow steeple, from whence, after the first discharge of the tower gone, I intend to mount into the air, fly over Fleet street and pitch upon the maypole in the Sewnd. Tblsldoabt not will continue the world I am no pretender.''

Well, this was written in 1718, and yet the public still awaits the long promised flying of man. Surely it cannot be that Mr. Maxim and other inventors with flying machine* up their sleeves can have taken umbrage and bold hack because we no longer have a maypole In the Strand for them tc "pitch upon, for we know, as a matter of fact, that most flying nten have found it cosier to pitch upon their own poles than to steer for any particular goal. So the patient but tired world most perforce still wait perhaps for a few more centuries, and meanwhile scoff mildly jusi to shame inventors to greater effort*. Of course the inventors will resent this a? they ever have done.—Sat surdity Review.

They are six pounder carronades, only 2% feet in length, and are as scarred and seamed as old soldiers. Although no larger than toy guns of today, they, with one similar, formed the entire battery of the old Star fort at the siege of Ninety-six in May, 1781, in this state.

This fort and station was called Ninety-six because it was within 96 miles of the frontier fort, Prince George. It was situated in the eastern portion of Abbeville district, near the border of Edgefield, which is still known as "the fighting district" of South Carolina. These two districts, now called counties, by the way, have turned out more prominent men than apy other ten districts in the state, among them Calhoun, McDuffie, Brooks, Butler, Pickens, Noble, the Cheathams, Coopers, Carters, Mayes, Evans, Garys and scores of others. The old Waddell school was near Ninety-six, where McDuffie, with many of the brightest lights of the state, received his early education. It was in this school that Calhoun's first oratorical ability developed itself. It was in a debate with McDuffie, the subject being "A Dead Goose."

These carronades were mounted on wheels in order that their positions might be readily shifted. They stood upon a parapet of the fort, the latter being garrisoned-by about 600 men under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Cruger, a New York loyalist belonging to Delancey's battalion.

The siege of Ninety-six lasted nearly a month and was one of the most ex

THE CAIiRONADES.

traordinary events of the Revolution. Here the scene of the first conflict in the southern colonies, in 1775, began the sanguinary hostilities between Whigs and Tories which afterward desolated that beautiful country. It was an important point in the chain of military posts, being the most advanced position of the royal army, and maintaining communication with its Indian allies kept in check the -Whig settlements. jV"

One of the two carronades referred to was taken from the field by Cornet Charles Cooper of Colonel William Campbell's brigade. Another was saved by his comrade John Carter. The third of these Revolutionary relics is in the possession of the Cheathams, relatives of General Cheatham of Tennessee.

John Carter returned to Virginia after the war and married Elizabeth Hill, but Charles Cooper, finding Ninety-six a pleasant spot, lingered there long enough to marry the beautiful sister of Billy Beale, a noted partisan who caused more annoyance to Bloody Bill Cuiimugham, known hs the "bloody scout," than any other of the famous rangers of the day. Cunningham once said «o the Bister of Billy Beale, "Give me my breakfast, and quick too."

For this and similar insults, Beale chased him up and down old Ninety-six creek for months, each shooting at the other whenever he could.

This Charles Cooper, who settled there, is the father of Reuben Cooper, known in all that section as Uncle Reuben," to whom both of the carronades descended. It is a matter of history that these little twins of the Revolution were fired every Fourth of July from a hill at the baok of Mr. Cooper's residence from 1781 to 1856.

The last time they were used in salute was at a barbecue given in honor of Preston S. Brooks after his escapade in the senate with Charles Sumner. It will be remembered that he tendered his resignation to congress and returned home, but he was re-elected by the unanimous vote of his district. "Uncle Reuben" was asked to lo&n his little Revolutionary six pounder, no other piece of ordnance being at hand. The old gentleman replied, "Yon are welcome to the gun, but remember I don't approve of the caning." The cannon burst while being discharged, and that was the last time its warlike voice was. ever heard echoing over the hills and valleys of old Ninety-six.

In view of the possibility of their loss, it seems a pity that these interesting relics are not in same museum or historical society, where they may ba safely guarded and exhibited as a part of Revolutionary history.

REVOLUTION RELICS.

Two Carrooades That Saw Hard Service For the Country. [Special Correspondence.]

CHARLESTON, Oct 18.—In the fireplace of a private residence on West Eighty-fourth street, in New York city, lying side by side in ignoble desuetude and looking as innocent as if they never had enacted a more eventful role, are two relics of the Revolution which, if they could speak, would tell of war and bloodshed, of British arrogance and partisan loyalty, of Marion's strategy, of Greene's intrepidity, of Kosciusko's skillful engineering and of the "bloody scout's" butchery.

Mrs. F. G. De Fontaine.

1%t« BotUtkeeper's Bete Notre* Ask a bookkeeper what his "black beast" is, and he will tell you the monthly trial balance. Soma of yon know what that is, of course, but the majority of you perhaps do not. Let us explain briefly. In double entry bookkeeping, the on# kind that dewrves the name of bookkeeping, every debit must have its credit—that is to say, every item that is carried to the debit of me account most be carried to the credit of another.

Say, for example, you buy a bill of goods from a merchant He enters the amount t6 your debit on his books and at the same time credits an account called "merchandise,'' this account be-

ing debited with all the goods brought into the stock and credited with all the goods sold from it When you pay the bill, you are credited with the amount, and an account called "cash" is debited, because it receives the money.

This will explain to the uninitiated the meaning of the term "double entry," and it will also explain "why, after the entries have all been carried to the ledger and balances have been struck thereon, the debits and the credits will agree if the books have been correctly kept To test the correctness of -his work the bookkeeper takes eff every month a trial balance, which consists simply of the debit balances in one columa and the credit balances in another. If they foot up the same, the work has been correctly doue. If they vary, he must look for and find the error or errors before the next month's business is entered on the ledger.

You can readily- understand, therefore, why the trial balance is the bookkeeper's "black beast." We have known cases in which trifling errors have eluded the most caresul search for several days and nights and even for weeks, torturing the soul of the bookkeeper almost past endurance. But he has to stand' it, for the error must be found. —Philadelphia Times.

The Editor's Woes.

A Now Jersey suburbanite (ells this one: There is an editor in our little town who just for the present wishes he were somewhere else. Desiring to compliment the schoolteachers of the place and extend the circulation of his newspaper among them, he wrote an elaborate article, which he headed, "Pension a Lot of Our Schoolteachers." He then continued in an eloquent strain to declare that "there are about a dozen of the best known teachers in our schools who, because of their long service in the harness, should be pensioned immediately." Of course the intelligent compositor got in his work, and as the old man failed to read his proof he was horrified to find his paper declaring that there were a lot of old schoolteachers in that town who ought to be "poisoned" immediately. The editor informs me, ith tears in his eyes, that this is one of those unpleasant episodes which occur to an editor now and then.—Hardware.

Do Metals Become Tired?

Various instances are on record where metals, while not showing any appre ciable wear, have literally fallen to pieces, and that without any assigned cause. On cue occasion a steel rail, after 22 years' continuous service on the Great Northern railway, in England, actually disintegrated under the wheels of a passing train. So complete was the breaking up that scientists thought it worthy of investigation, during which it was determined that the Uietal had become exhausted and had broken down, just as an overstrained animal might be expected to do. This has led to further inquiry, and scientists are satisfied that metals do become tired out. Fine cracks often appear in steel rails, and it has been supposed that they are caused by the continuous concussion of railway wheels. This, however, seems to be contradicted by the examination of newly made rails, in which similar fine lines occur. The idea that metals become weary, while not altogether a new one, is to an extent a plausible one and under the careful scrutiny of scientific societies will probably be satisfactorily explained and settled.—New York Ledger.

Courts of Lore*

"Courts of love" were established in the middle ages, when chivalry was at its height and love the serious occupation of life among the higher class of society. The first "court of love" was established in the south of France in the twelfth century and was composed of knights, poets and ladies, and their decisions on subtle questions connected with affairs of the heart were given with great formality. %.

It is a plain fact that twenty per cent, of the deaths in our larger cities are caused by consumption and when we reflect that this terrible dise- se can be forestalled by Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, shall we condemn the sufferers for their negligence, or pity them for their ignorance.
