MY NEIGHBOR OF YESTERDAY.
. ;
Beneath yonwidely spreading tree
From youth to age he dwelt;
So near to nature’s heart was he
Its even beat he felt.
His character wore no disguise;
He envied none his place.
The blue of heaven was in his eyes,
Its freedom in his face.
As guileless as a. little child,
As thoughtless for renown, .
The weighted years were on him piled,
Until they bore him down.
He took the weal, and took the woe
Of life with equal mind;
Let stream run dry, let stream o’erflow.
To the great Will resigned.
The face we ne’er shall see again
Will waver and grow dim;
The fields and streams will not retain
The memory of him.
The mighty elm that o’er him bends
With a benignant grace,
At once caresses and defends
His earthly hiding-place.
How fares he now? on, who shall say,
For who that way hath trod?
He was my neighbor yesterday,
He dwells to-day with God.

' “ .TELL you, my dear Dr. Bridges,
there’s no use your dosing me
withyour horrid drugs. There’s only
.onething that will cure me.”
“And what is that?” inquired the
medical adviser and family confidant
of the Burton family, surveying his fair
patient, pretty Minnie Burton, with a
,merry- little twinkle in his eye.
“A trip to England, and to be present-
ed,” she replied, promptly. “Come, do
coax father into going.”
“I couldn’t do it! I couldn’t do it,
;Miss Minnie, not even for you! Fancy
-advising your father to go home now!
:Why, ,it would be as much as his
chances of promotion are worth, and
ajust-asihings are shaping so well for
him, too! He might send you, perhaps,
with your mother.”
“0! there’s not a bit of good in think-
ing of that,” she said, irritably. “He'd
never allow it. But if you could per-
suade him, .now, that it was for his ad-
vantage—4”
“No, no! ask something easier! You
must allow me to keep some sort of a,
conscience,” the doctor replied, laugh-
img.
“Well, then, if I mayn’t go to London,
I must go to the Melbourne cup. There
can’t be anything against that! I’m
simply choking from boredom here.”
“The Melbourne cup!” Dr. Bridges

repeated, thoughtfully. “If you think
your father-J’ .
“You don’t suppose I meant you to
ask him to go to the races, or even to
let me go, either,” Minnie exclaimed.
“Why, doctor, you must think me a
dufier! No, but there are always lots
of our friends there, and plenty of fun
going on, While the races are on, and I
do want so much to sec some life. At
any rate, a hen tea part y would be bet-
ter than this purgatory!”
“Many people would think this near-
er Paradise than purgatory. However.
I’m going over to the ‘cup’ myself and
I’ll see what I can do for you.”
Mr. (already in secret anticipation
Sir) Samuel Burton was seated in his
He looked up
with relief as his visitor entered.
“Ah, doctor, good day, good day.
Been seeing my daughter, eh? Take a
seat, take a seat! Yes—her mother
wished you to be sent for, but if you’ll
excuse my saying so, I think she would
have done better to leave it in my hands.
It is a physician for the soul, not the-1
body, that she requires. Of course, you
heard all about it? Shameful aifair!
That scoundrel of a clerk of mine. Le-
strange, if ever I catch him round here.
* *' * Ah, Bridges, it is hard at times
to feel as a Chi-’istian should! But you
had something to speak to me about?”
Then the good-natured doctor, with
infinite tact, led up to the proposal he
had to make. It so happened that for-
tune favored him. A large religious
gathering was about to be held in M el-
bourne, to which delegates from various
colonies had been invited, and Mr. Bur-
ton was at that moment debating as to
whether or not he should attend.
A little judicious pressure was suffi-
cient to decide the matter and that
evening Mrs, Burton and her daughter
received instructions to prepare for a
visit to Melbourne the next week.
“Cup day” broke fair and bright,
bringing feverish apprehension as well
as anticipations of pleasure to many a
heart. '
“What lovely flowers! Minnie, where
did‘ they come from?” inquired Mrs.
Burton, as she entered the breakfast-
room. ' ' ’ <-
Minnio buried her face among the
cool, creamy cluster of roses. “They
smell delicious,” she murmured, and at
this moment the arrival of the post
caused a anqrgble diversion.
”-QC—‘o
in
Mrs. Burton looked up from her let- ,
her with a. little screamof delight.
*ti'aly think, John! Lady Ormiston
is in Melbourne and wants me to go to
i‘unch to-day. Come early!” she says. .
“You know, how much I wanted to get
in with the Ormistons, and they’re sup— 1
posed to be so proud! Just fancy, and
to lunch! W'on’t Mrs. Fitroy be mad. ,
Only”—doubtfully—-“she doesn’t say ;
anything about you, Minnie. I wonder .
what I’d best do.”
~ “Of course you must go alone, mam—
ma,” replied Minnie, with unexpected
alacrity. “It would never do to take me
if I’m not asked. Though I did want to ;
see Lady OrmiSton, too! ”
Half an hour later Miss Burton had
driven off,,arrayed in splendor, Mr. Bur-
ton reentered the sitting-room, where
his daughter sat reading.
“Minnie, .my dear,” he began, and
there was unwonted hesitation in his
manner, “I .am going out to see some
friends and may be detained to lunch. '
Do not wait-for me, my child, and—cr—
on no account go out alone. Your moth-
er or I will return early and take you
to the museum or some other place of
rational and innocent recreation. You
will be very careful, my child, especial-
ly on such a day .as this! Alas! I fear
Melbourne is sucha sinful city.”
Thedoor closed,:and Minnie was alone.
Suddenly her countenance underwent a
marvelous change. “The color rushed g
into her pale cheeks; she sprang up and
clasped her hands. '“It’s too good to be ;
true!” she cried. Then she ran to her ;
bedroom and donned with trembling ‘
fingers an elaborate .costume prepared
in secret anticipation of this great day.
“I never thought it would all happen
so simply,” she thought, as she fastened
a delicate spray .of orchids in her gown. 3
Then she stole downstairs and can-
tiously opened the street door. Unac- =
customed to the busy scenes of a city 1
life, she drew back half frightened, =
when a hand was laid on her arm, and,
turning. she saw a. well-known face .
smiling down into hers. :
“It’s all right! I’ve settled every- ;
thing,” Jack Lestrange said, briskly. ‘I
“Now for a cab; but come ontof sight
of the house. All out? Why, that's too
good to be true!”
“That’s what I said." she exclaimed,
rippling over with glee, “but they‘re
gone, all the same, mother to Lady Or-
miston and fat-her to lunch with friends.
And now, Jack, dear, you and I are go-
ing to the races, and you’ll show me
how to put on the ‘Tote,’ and every—
thing, won’t you ‘2”
They were only naughty children, '
after all, these two very young people, ‘
and they were as happy as if they were
truants from school, as they bowl-ed
quickly along to the course.
“Caards for the rices! Caards for the
rices. Now, then, lidy! this way for the
tote,1idy, and (confidentially) don’t you
lay on Heatherbelle. She ain’t got no
stayin’ power in ’er, that’s wot I say.
Very pretty and flash-like, but Strad-
brook’s the boss for yer money.”
”All this came from a bare-legged
gamin as they hurriedly made their way
to the grand stand. Minnie, under her
escort’s guidance, had been speculating
pretty heavily on Robin Hood, 3. com- i
'parativcly unknown horse, and was be- ,
ginning to quake as to the results of her
venture. g
Stradbrook was the favorite, and as
she watched his opening her heart sank.
Robin was midway in the field almost
unnoticed among his peers; but grad-
ually, inch by inch, as it seemed, he
stole away until one after the other he
had passed all save two; then, with a
great dash, he came up to Stradbrook,
and now commenced the true excite-
ment of the run.
Neck by neck they strove until it
seemed as though the race would end in
a tie. Every eye was turned towards
the winning post, and in an intense ._
silence the spectators watched for the
fatal moment. Now Stradbrook will
win—he is drawing ahead—but no—
with one supreme eflort Robin has come
up with—has passed him—and reaches
the goal victor by a quarter of a length.
The spell which had held the vast mul- .
titudc breathless was broken. Minnie ;
heaved a deep sigh and looked around. i
“0! it was wonderful!” she ex- I
claimed, but the. words died on her lips.
There—not six yards away, in the midst
of a circle of friends, eagerly comparing
notes on the fortunes of the day, sat her
mother! Their eyes met and dropped
as guiltily as if criminals detected in a
common crime.
“0, Jack, take me away,” she whis-
pered, and following the direction of her
glance youngLestrange silently obeyed. a
Mrs. Burton had risen, and in another .
moment her hand was on the girl’s arm,
where it fell limp and powerless. Sam-
uel Barton himself stood before them, r
with blanched lips and starting eyes.
In his hand he held a “caard” and a
friend by his side was chafiing him on
his ill-luck. Mr. Lest-range turned to
his companion.
“I think, Minnie,” he said, sweetly, ‘
“that your father seemsrather ill. I’er- '
haps we had better call a cab for him?”
lut as Mr. Burton was not inclined to
occupy it, they went home __by them-
selves.
After this the air of Melbourne ceased
to agree with Mr. Burton, and he speed—
ily returned with his family to purga-
tory. .
But not for long was Miss Minnie
condemned to languish there, for be-
fore six months had passed, she had
obtained her heart’s desire, and was on
her way home to be presented, which,
in the eyes of a colonial girl, is syn-
onymous with Paradise.—Madame.

Model Creame‘ry.
I will relate‘an amusing incident I
saw happen in a creamery I visited a
short time ago, writes G. B! Lawson in
as clean and neat as any could be.
There was not, a speck of dirt on.the
floor or about any of the machinery.
The door opened! and a tramp came
in with muddy boots on. It was rainy
at the time. He made one step on the
inside and stopped, as soon as he saw
his muddy feet, took off his hat and
apologized for coming in in such a
hurry with so much mud on his feet.
If that creamery had been dirty and
not have stopped at the door and apol-
ogized, but would have gone in and
gotten the buttermilk he wanted With-
out looking at. his feet. Brother But-
termaker, do you keep your creamery
so clean that a tramp will stop at the
door, take ofi his 'hat and offer an
apology for coming in? If not, try
it and see what a diiferencc it- will have
on the looks of the place, and also on
the quality of the product made.
PRES—u DAIRY NOTES.
When milk is to be taken to the
creamery do not mix the milk of the
night and the morning even if it will
save the use of one can.
The milk cow must be kept clean;
the milkcrs must be cléan at milking
time; and the vessels in which the milk
is put must be clean at all times.
Do not aerate the milk in the stable
or in the lee of the stable. The air
in which the milk is aerated must be
pure, else the milk in being aerated
will suffer more harm than the aera-
Milk for the creamery must be milk
in its proper condition. The farmer
that has permitted his milk to get into
bad shape had better feed it to his
hogs or poultry than attempt to haul
it to the creamery where it will be
of milk.—Farmers’ Review.
The Boiled Butter Business.
One of the worst and most insidious
process or “boiled” butter. When but-
ter becomes so bad and rancid as to be
absolutely worthless for any purpose,
it is melted to its original oil, treated
with alkaloids,-freed from volatile oil,
re-crystalized, and then churned with
sour milk to freshen it. This produces
a. thoroughly renovated and it is
claimed wholesome butter with a good
3 body which will easily show a butter
fat content of 80 per cent. From a
standpoint too of chemical analysis, it
cannot be considered adulterated nor
. an imitation. The only protection the
producers of good fresh butter have is
to insist that this manufactured prod-
uct shall be sold as renovated or boiled
butter.—Journal of Agriculture. '
Dairy Cows Eating Straw.
. Wherever grain is grown largely
and its straw is stacked in the barn-
yard after threshing, cows have a great
liking for rubbing themselves against
the stack to rid themselves of the flies
that torment them. A fence should be
built around the stack to protect it
from being pulled to pieces. Cows will
eat considerable straw, picking at it,
and they will often eat enough of the
chafl’ to lessen their flow of milk. This
chaff makes good winter feed if mois-
tened and grain meal or bran is mixed
with it. Thus fed even the straw will
not help dry the cows off, as it will if

hurriedly to Mr. Hoba'rt’s house. 'Hobart
Tuttle, the 'vice president’s brother-in-

of the family assembled at Mr. Hobart’s

that Mr. Hobart was dying.
Mr. Hobart, who has been ill at his
home here, suifered a relapse yesterday.
He had a succession of choking spells
resulting from an imperfect action of the
heart, an old afiliction, complicated with
inflammation of the stomach.

had but little hope of his ultimate recov—

GUAM HEARD FROM.
Captain Leary Forced to Banish the
Friars From the Island.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 31.-—A report
from Captain Leary, the naval governor
of the island of Guam, in the Ladroues,
has excited a good deal of interest among
the officials to whom it has been exhib-
ited. .
Captain Leary soon learned that his au-
thority as governor was being subverted
and every one of the measures of the re
form which he proposed was being dc-
feated by the hostile influence of the
friars. .
They resisted every decree, no matter
of what character, from a spirit of in-
tense conservatism and a belief that any
disturbance of the order of things which
had covered the island for so many years
would cause them to lose their hold upon
the natives.
After exhausting‘all other means tc-
overcome this influence, Captain Leary
reports that he was obliged to notify hall
a dozen of the friars that they might
have free transportation away from
Guam and he should expect them to and
themselves of the offer.
That left but one friar on the island
and he was a man whose character anv‘
reputation were such as to convince Cap
tain Leary of his fitness to remain.
Interesting Robbery ' Case.
CORNING, N. Y., Oct. 31.-—A peculiar
capture of a burglar was made by the
Corning police about 5 o’clock yesterday
morning. During the night a burglar
broke into the rooms of George Jones, a
calcrci‘ ‘motblack, which are located in a
store L...lding, and stole certificates of
deposit amounting to $4,300, which the
bootblack had saved by years of shines.
He also took a sweater and a pair of
shoes. Jones was awakened by the bark-
ing of a dog which was locked in the
hallway and arose to find that he had
been robbed. It was evident that the
dog was left behind by the burglar, and
Jones decided to follow him. The dog
sniffed about and soon led them to the
rear of the building, where the shoes
were found. Jones continued to follow
the dog and was soon joined by the pa-
trolman. The dog led them a long chase,
but finally turned into a hallway, where
the man was found putting on the stolen
sweater. On him were found the stolen
certificates, and he was locked up.

through the window of a residence, kill~
ing the wife of a clothing salesman who

ly captured after he had received slight
wounds in the head and legs. Threats of
lynching were made, and Moore pleaded

A5 TAX . deuteron
Church Property Held by at Bishop
In Trust Taxable.
MILWAUKEE, Oct. 30.—The recent
decision of the supreme court, in the suit
brought by Archbishop Kotzer for the
purpose of securing a return of taxes as-
sessed against property owned by him
which he claimed was church property
held in trust has brought about a radical
change. According to the decision, prop-
erty, even when held oin trust by the
archbishop, is subject to taxation. As
it has been the custom for all the prop-
erty in the diocese to be held by the
archbishop, who on his death wills it to
his successor, it is readily seen what the
decision means.
All the Roman Catholic churches in the
Milwaukee diocese have been notified
to arrange for the incorporation of the
parishes. A circular has been sent by
Archbishop Kutzer to all parishes in the
diocese instructing them to hold meetings
tomorrow evening and take steps to in-
corporate wherever the parish is not
now incorporated. In case any parish
does not comply with his instructions
the archbishop intimates it will be in
danger of being reduced to a mission
charge.
As soon as the parishes are incorporat-
ed and ready to receive the property it
will be deeded to them by the archbish-
op, and the title will hereafter rest with
the parish instead of the bishop of the
diocese.
Fierce Fire In Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 30.—The tri-
angular block bounded by Canal and
Second streets and Germantown avenue
has been almost entirely destroyed by
fire, entailing a loss of over $150,000, on
which there is a partial insurance. The
fire is supposed to have originated in the
warehouse of Wunderlich Bros., 179 and
181 Canal street. The Chicago Mer-
chandise company of this city used the
building as a storage house, and the to-
tal loss on the building and contents is
estimated at $50,000, divided between
Wunderlich Bros. and the Merchandise
company. Twelve horses belonging to
Wunderlich Bros. were burned to death.
The flames spread to Davis Bros.’ large
railroad spike works. 171 to 177 Canal
street, and this establishment was com-
pletely destroyed.
Freight Rates Raised.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 30.-—The
transcontinental railroads, together with
their transpucific connections at San Dic-

rates ailcct all shipments from points in
this country east of the Missouri river to

crease by way of the Pacific coast.

A’ TREATY ,WITH; SPAIN.
Fegotiatlons Will Be Opened‘soon to
' Restore Friendly Relations.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.—An under-
standlng has been reached by which it is
expected that negotiations will be opened
soon ntMadi-id for a new treaty betiveen’
the United States and Spain. This will
be the last step toward completely re-
storing the friendly relations between
the-two countries.
The war with Spain swept the old trea-
ty out of existence, and the only interna-
tional agreement now in existence is the
peace treaty, which is confined to the
events growing out of the war and has no
reference to commerce, navigation, ex-
tradition and other manifold relations be-
tween nations in times of peace. The
coming negotiations will be for the pur-
pose of forming such a treaty ofcom-
merce, amity and friendship. The pres-
ent condition is quite anomalous, as there
IS no basis on which persons could be ex-
tradited from one country to the other or
for the determination of any commercial
difference which might arise. Fortunate-
ly there has been no case occasioning
serious difference.
Both sides expect that the new treaty
Will be a great improvement on the old
one, which was an antiquated document,
dating back to 1795, with many of its
provisions devoted to the boundary be-
tween Florida, then a possession of
Spain, and the United States. Save' for
the Cushing protocol it had been impos-
sxble to frame ‘a new treaty satisfactory
to both sides, and it remained for the war
to dispose of it and thus open the way
for a modern treaty.
It had been thought that the Duke
d’Arcos would conduct these negotia-
tions with the state department here, but
the minister is rather relieved atothe un-
derstanding that the work will be carried
on at Madrid. The United States minis-
ter there, Mr. Belamy Storer, will act for
the United States.
