J 01:11 Osborne’s Graduation.

he was up at four. She might have been
up at three, or, for the matter of that, _at any
other hour of the night, for there had been
none in which she had not waked. It wasthc
night preceding commencement, and her boy
was to speak. This is why she line been wake-
ful; this is why she rose before the sun.

As far as could be, the preparation for an
early start had been made the night before.
The bath had been taken; the clean clothes
had been laid by the bed; the old turned back
silk, with lace busted in neck and wrists,
had been hung on the rocking chair; the bon-
net and gloves and fringed parasol laid out on

‘ the sofa. Never had dress and bonnet been
more carefully dusted, never had lace and
linen been more carefully laundried. ..

J ohn’s mother knew when things were well
done, so it was with complacent feeling that
she drovc,in the well kept spring wagon. But
as she approached the church, her heart was
beating faster, and when the hired boy helped
her from the wagon, he felt the nervous
tremor in her thin .hand.

She was early. The church was not yet
open. She had half a mind to go to her
John’s boarding house. Had she done this,
she would have found the object of her so-
licitude not yet dressed for breakfast, it being
barely half-past seven. But bound upon
getting a good seat, she sat on the church
steps, and waited a weary time till the jan-
itor the came to Open the doors and to ring
the bell. _

She entered the church followed by another
woman, who was young. and looked very
warm; as w ell she might, since she had walked
three miles from the country, and wore an
alpaca dress, bright blue, with yellow satin
ribbons and white cotton mitts. ,

J ehn’s mother seemed, by comparison,
most respectable in her thin black silk and
white _crape shawl, and those loose brown
kids. She hurried along the aisle, as though
nervously fearful yet of missing a good seat
from which she could hear and see her John.
She glanced in a frightened way to right and
left, after the manner of one who was find—
ing all the seats taken, and was in apanic
lest she might have to stand,or to retirejrom
the house. She took the very frOut seat,
and heaved a sigh of relief like one safe at
last.

As the people assembled, John's mother
began to suspect that they avoided the front
seat. Fearing there might be a reason for
this, she moved back four pews. But no
sooner was she there seated, than she felt lost
behind the towering heads and bonnets.

“Oh i” cried her frightened heart, “I’m
afraid I shan’t be able to see John, and how
his new clothes look; or the gestures, or any-
thing. I’ll go back to the front seat 1”

This she did, and sat there with a feeling
of gratulation in her good fortune, as she saw
hurrying people with anxious faces pressing
this way and that to the good seats.

After a time a man touched her on the.
shoulder and said, “These seats are reserved
for the trustees, ma‘am.”

John’s mother got to her feet trembling, a
swift look of alarm—of dismay—comingeto
the thin face. What if she should have to go
away back where she could not hear his ora-
tion, and could only half see him ? What if
she could not get a seat at all?

She lost no moments in beginning the
search. Up one aisle and down another she
went, the poor face turning this way and
that in pathetic appeal, with a half—crazed
look in it. -

Young women, young men, children
stared, smiled, giggled, but no one offered a
sent. If the pitcous alarm in her heart could
have been seen as she was suffering it, all the
audience would have risen to their feet and
entreated her acceptance.

Wearied at length with unvailing wander—-
ings, she turned to a little girl at the aisle end
of a seat.

“I’ll hold you On my lap, my dear, if you’ll
let me have your seat," she said

“Will you let. me do it, mamma? I want
to," the child said turning an eager face to
the lady beside her.

The motiu r gave conscnt, and the child
stepped int» the aisle.

When John’s merthct‘ was seated, the fine
lady said to her child, “You can set on maln-

’Ina‘s lap."

But J ohn’s mother protested.

“I am younger than you, and can better

=~hold her,” said the handsome lady.

“I can’t take the scat unless you will let
me hold her,” persisted John's mother. And
this she held to.

There could hardly have been a stronger
contrast than these two women presented ;
the one quaintly old-fashioned in dress and
manner, the other faultless in style, quietly
elegant, her,whole expression ineffably gra—
cious.

“I wouldn’t care," said John’s mother,
spoiogetically to the other, “only my son is a
senior, and he’s going to make a speech, and
I naturally want to hear him. A lad doesn’t
graduate but once in a lifetime.”

“Mamma’s son is going to speak, too; he’s
a senior, too!" said the child, with eager
pleasure. I’ll snow him to you ‘when he
comes in.”

“What is your son’s name 1’” asked the ele-
gant lady, wishing to show sympathy.

“John Osborne.” .

“I think I have heard my son mention that
name. Let me think. Isn’t he prominent in
the class ? Doesn‘t he excel in debate, or is
it in composition ?"

The faded eyes were glowing with a proud
smile, and the mother replied, “John does
have the name of being a good debater,though
I shouldn't have mentioned it, if you hadn’t
asked for information." _

“There they come!” the child cried in a

- loud whisper. Then she pointed out her
brother to the old lady, and John’s mother
pointed out her boy to the girl.

“My brother speaks his piece last. Where
does your son come on the programme ? said
the child, laboring with the printed docu-
ment; “Oh, I see his name ; next to the
last i” A

Then the exercises began, As the first
speaker closed his address on “The Crescent
and the Cross,” flowerspoured in upon him
—bouquets, baskets, crosses, cresceuts.

“Well, now, ain’t they pretty 7” said John’s
mother, in undisguIscd admiration. "Ain’t
they nice 1’ I never did see the like."

“That is the way it always is," the child
explained. “The speakers always get flow-
ers. But don’t you believe ?-—-last year,
there was one of the seniors that didn’t get
any flowers. Oh I did feel so sorry for him 1
His face was just red l”

But the second orator was speaking. When
he had ended, John’s mother looked eagerly
about. Again flowers were handed from this

. quarter and that to the ushers, and passed to
the last speaker.
“Who gives the flowers ?” asked John’s
mother to the child. “Why didn’t that sen-
get some last year I” '

 

 

v.

him some. Mamma has a bouquet there to
give to brother Will. It cost four dollars.”

A sudden fear seized John’s mother. She
hadn’t brought any flowers for John. It
wasn’t likely that anybod'y'else had remem-
bered him. He was going to be slightcd as
that poor senior had been, and his face would
burn with mortiflcation l ‘

“I didn’t bring any for my boy,” she said,
with a quick involuntary glance towards the
exquisite:bouquet in the hands of Willie's
mother, “I might have brought somc,I have
roses and pinks and lilies, and most every
kind"—

She became silent. The third orator was
speaking. But John’s mother could not lis—
ten, except to the fear and questioning of her
own heart. Would there be any flowers for
Sohu? Had anybody remembered her boy i
If he should not get any, would he feel very
badly about it ?

At. the m1 of each address, she looked
eagerly about, in dread lest the speaker might
receive no flowers. almost hoping he would
not receive any, so that her John might not
be alone in the misery;of|beiug neglected,—
if he should not be remembered.

At length the last speaker preceding her
John was standing before the 'uudiencc. All
the others had been honored with floral
tributes; and as this one ended a eulogy on
Thomas Jefferson, John’s mother saw the
flowers fairly pouring toward him. Nineteen
bouquets, according to one report, he re-
ceived. Alas, she saw how it would be.
John would be the solitary one—alone in his
misery; for only Will was to follow, and
Will’s _mother hadithat superb, bouquet for
him:

But perhaps-perhaps—it might be 1 John
might be remembered. One person there
might be in all that large [audience who had
thought to bring for him a little bunch of
flowers. “But," she ' , with a sigh, “it
was not likely, when 13 own mother had
not.” .

But John was advancing to the front of the
stand. Soon her question would be answer-
ed. She listened with interest so tense that
an ache possessed her whole being. He gave
a noble oration for a youth—a clear, terse
argument. But it was not of the kind to
please that part of the audience which does
the cheering. The applause lagged,—aud the
flowers 3

The mother, with unconscious entreaty in
every feature and motion, icoked right and
left, backwards and all about. She saw people
looking constrained, people looking sympa-
thetic, people looking amused, people whis-
pering. Nowhere—nowhere did she see the
coveted spot of fiower’color extended.

Alas, alas i there were no flowers forJohnl
She saw his face scwlling and growing red.
Perhaps other people did not perceive that
he cared; but she who had been studying the
face through nineteen years, she saw that
John was hurt. Tears gathered in the faded
eyes; one sputtered on the loose brown k ids
draped in the lap.

And Will’s mother was turning the grand
bouquet between her pale lilac gloves, in a
triumphing way, as it seemed to the other.

It was in a triumphing way. A triumph
had been won; the beautiful bouquet was
lifted; it was held out ; it was beckoning an
usher. .

“Oh mamma l” wildly remonstrated the
child. “Will! You brought it for Will!
Suppose he shouldn’t get any 1”

“He won't mind; he’s the valedictorian,”
whispered the sweet faced lady, as she gave
the bouquet into the usher’s hands. With
misty eyes, she saw it borne along the aisle
-——the noblest offering Of the day—into John 's
hands,

A sigh of relief went around the class; a
glow came into every face; all the audience
seemed to warm. John's mother turned one
grateful look to the beautiful woman whose
sympathy had prompted the noble deed; and
then the brown gloves were nervously placed
over the worn face, quivering with tears, and
were not removed until the last words of the
last speaker had been spoken.

looking out of the windows of abousc on
Market street,!when they observed a cabbage
roll off a market wagon that ‘was passing.
Instantly over a dozen well-‘d‘ressed and ap-
parently sane persons began yelling after the
wagon as though the vegetable had been a
g)ldwatch or a thousand dollar bill. The
driver stopped about half a square off, look-
ed back at the cabbage, yawued, and drove
on. .

“What an absurd fuss people in the street
makeover trivial occurrences,” said once!-
the gentlemen. “Now, I’ll beta silk hat that
I could get a crowd of five hundred persons
around that cabbage inside of thirty minutes,
and yet not leave the room." .

“I take the bet,” said a friend, pulling out
his watch. "Are you ready ?"

“Yes; give the word.”

“It is now eleven-thirty. Go 1"

The proposer of the wager led his friend
to the window, threw up the sash, and tak—
ing a cane pointgd earnestly at the mud—
covered cabbage with a terrified expression.
Presently a hack driver noticed the action
and began to stare at the vegetable ft om the
curbstouc; then a boot black stopped ; then
a bill poster, a messenger boy and a mer-
chant.

"What’s the matter 7” inquired a German,
approaching the innocent base of his national
dish.

“Don’t touch it! Look out there 1 Stand,
back 1” shouted the gentleman at the window,

At his horror—stricken tones the crowd fell
back precipitately and formed a dense circle
around the innocent cabbage. Hundreds
came running up and the excitement increas-
ed rapidly.

“Look out there i” frantically screamed thgy
better, waving his cane. "Take that ddg
away, quick 1” 5

Several stones were thrown at :1 our that
was sniffing around the cabbage.

"Take care 1" said a car driver to a pol
man, who was shouldering his way throug
the mass. “It's an internal machine, nitro—
glycerine—or something."

Meanwhile the sidewalk was blocked, the
street became impassable, _womeu screamed
and rushed into shops, and a Storekeeper
.underneath began to tie a bucket on the end
of along pole with which to pour water on
the devlish invention. The crowd by this
time numbering over a thousand the two
gentlemen moved away from the window and
sat down. In:a few moments there was a
hurried tap at the door,and there appeared a
man who had been sent as a delegate from
the mass meeting outside.

“I should like to know, gentlemen,” he
said, "what the facts are 1"

“What facts ?"

“Why, what there is peculiar about a cab—
bage out there 7”

“Nothing in the world,” was the soft re-
ply, “except that it seems to be surrounded

town. Do anything else for you ?"

The man reflected a moment, said be
“guessed not?’ and retired. Before he handed
n his report, however, Captain Short’s watch
had dispersed the mob and clubbed two hun-
dred and eleven separate persons for creating

a disturbance.

the supply,) I have now in stock and en route
the largest, most complete and satisfactory
assortment of Lumber ever- ofi'ered in this
market. As evidence of this factI refer to
Some few items below and. respectfully re—
quest on examination of my stock by any one

Edison has again announced the success of
his electric light, and promised in a very
short time his perfected lamps shall be placed
in the market. Each lamp is to last six
months and 'cost about fifty cents. The elec-
tric power which furnishes the illumination
during the night may used to drive light ma-
chinery by day for manufactudng purposes,
thus adding to the value and economy of the
system. The electric current is to be sup—
plied in cities from central stations, where
huge generators, will be located, and the
quantity of electricity received by each con-
sumer is to be recorded by a meter. The
expense is to be less than that of gas. This

 

 

by the sanguine experimenter nearly a year
ago. There seems to be little doubt that Mr.
Edison has made some progress with his
system of electric lighting, but his reckless
assertions and unredeemed pledges have so
shaken public faith in his ideas that nothing
less than a thorough practical demonstration
will spread the conviction that the electric
light problem has been solved.

Investigations by A Muller show that the
fresh leaves of the sugar beet contain four
.per cent. of oxalic acid, of which one-third
is in a soluble form. When it is considered
how great are the quantities of these leaves
eaten by cattle where the beet sugar industry
is extensively engaged in, it behooves farm-
ers to be on their guard, as the acid induces
inflammation Of the mucous 'coats of the
stomach. The pickling of the leaves with
chalk will probably prevent such results.

According to Mr. Alexander Buchan thun-
der has been heard in Iceland in only
twenty —three hours in the last fourteen
years. ’

A successful experiment has been made at
Cologne with the electric light for the pur-
pose of illuminating the newly completed
cathedral both inside and outside. A most
brilliant effect was obtained, and the lofty
spires of the immense edifice were lighted to
the very top.

An observatory, with- four telescopes, was
lately opened in Paris for the free use of the
public. It has a room for microscopical
observations during the daytime.

A cloth for polishing metals is manufactur-

ed in France under the name of serviette
magique. It consists of small pieces of
woolen cloth saturated with soap and tripoli
and colored with fuchsiue.
The electric light proves to be very eflect—
ive asan insect trap. Flies and moths are
attracted to it from a great distance, and
flying into the are, are quickly killed.

Medical investigation has shown that some
of the occupations for children at kindergar-
ten schools are calculated to injure the eye-
sight. Among these are the pricking of holes
over a tracing on paper, braiding bright col-
ored bands of paper, and sewing fine silk
upon tracings.

Prof. Tait, of Edinburgh, estimates that
the energy developed in the form of heat by
a fall of only one-tenth of an inch of rain
over the whole of Great Britain is equivalent
to the work of a million millions of horses

The next United States Congress will act "
on a bill, reported in the last Congress, in
support of an International Commission to
agree upon standard tests for color blindness
and standard requirements for visual power
in navies and merchant marines.

It is believed by the Philadelphia Ledger,
that the scientists employed by the core:
ment have usually given a fail? rtlurn lul' the
money expended upon them :mdtheir labors;
and if Prof.- Riley has really found a means
Of putting an end to the ravages of the~cot-
ton worm he will have paid in a single season
fora whole decade of accumulated salary.
SO many scientists Of our day turn specula-
tive philosophers, and confound the public
mind at least as to what is known and what
is simply conjectured, that science, so far as
they represent it, is brought into disrepute; ‘
but the labors of real observers and experi-
mentalists continue to be of immeasurable
value everywhere and in all kinds of occu-
pations. The economic work of topographi-
cal and geological surveyors.of eutomologists
and meteorologists, cannot be done eflective-
ly by privale institutions or by individuals.
The government must attend to it for the
general good, and there is no danger of giv—
ing it too much aid. The discovery of a
means of Stopping the ravages of a single
pest, like the grasshopper, or the' army or
cotton worm, or the potato beetle, is worth
more than has been expended by the govern-
ment on purely scientific labors since its
organization.

 
 
 

 

 

“I am a peaceable man,” said the intruder,
grasping his club with both his hands, “but
if you don’t come down with $17.50 damages
for my lacerated feelings the bombardment
will begin at once." The owner of the dog
paid down the money, as he was afraid the
other fellow might exasperate him if he hit
him with a club of that size. The owner of
the dog also said that he was sorry that the
dog had bitten the intruder‘s son. “Why, he
ain’t my son,” said the intruder. “Whose son
is he then it" asked the astonished owner of
the dog. He is the son of a friend ‘of mine
who owed me $17.50; but he is poor,and the
only available assets he has was these dog
bites on his body, which he turned over to
me for collection." “Well, I'll be blowed.”
“Oh, you needn’t complain; you are getting
off dog cheap. I ought to make you pay in
advance for the next time that boy is going
to be bit.

 

A Congressman has an excellent story to
tell at. the expense of a postmaster who was
his companion during a recent pOlitical speech-
making tour in Nevada. The stage in which
they left Pizen Switch, Mason Valley, was
crowded. Amongthe passengers were a lady
and a little girl. The child was so small that
her feet did not reach the floor of the coach,
and she presently became very tired and rest-
less. Observing this, Mr. Daggett told the
mother that the child would be much more
comfortable if she had some support for her
feet, and at the same time informed her that
under the seat was a valise that she could
draw out which would be just the thing.
The lady reached under the seat and began
tugging away at what. she Supposed to be a.
valisc. “Can't you get it out 7" said Mr. Dag-
.em “No" said the lady ;“it don’t seem to
come, though I might get it if I could find
the handles.” Here Postmaster Avlkiuson
aroused from a doze and said: “Why, my
