And yet later when the forests have cast their garments and "heaped in the hollows of the grove the autumn leaves lie dead” Then come soft smoky Indian summer days. “For still Such days will come to call thel squirrel and bee From out their winter home.” Some sad, sweet spirit haunts the air, and throws its chastening charms upon the pens ve mind. Still travel on and Icome to our more northern clime Here is beauty in its utmost grandeur Here indeed too, may be seen the varying roads. Some so desolate In their barren, rocky surroundings that one’s heart goes out in sympathy for the few struggling settlers who having robbed the rocks of their only beauty, and seek to make a scanty livelihood from a soil that scarcely yields to til‘age, But we will not linger over the un- pleasant. In more fertile districts and where more of the forests have been left standing in their beauty, the tra- veller passes along a highway edged on either side by stretches of massive trees set 06 by their bordering of flow- ers, ferns and mosses mingled in pro- fusion and still glorified, as summer, wanes by the rich colorings of the low- spreading dogwood. Here too is re- freshment for himself and pony at the Scool little spring, bursting from the hillside and trickling through the stem» and mosses. Again he crosses a ravine edged by its tall cardinal flower or grace- lful long prples. Here he may hap to I see a red deer grazing among the shrubbery or drinking from the stream, but with antlers erect and a fleetness unsurpassable does it disappear into its labyrinth of tanglewood at the ap- proach of human form. ‘ Thus as we travel through the coun- try and behold the great “Wisdom and Spirit of the Universe” working around us in nature should we not appreciate that nature more. Ruskin says "each of us as we travel the way of life has the choice according to our working of turning all the voices of nature into one song of rejoicing; or of withering land quenching her sympathy into a fearful withdrawn silence of condem- nation, â€"into a crying out cf her stones and a shaking off her dust aga: nst us.’ â€"-Dr. Yeomsns, the S'cratford dentist, serving a sentence in the Kingston peni- 2entiary for a. serious ofl'ence, was liber- ated on Saturday.

So far as known 17 passengers are dead and 73 injured as a resuit of the accident. The collision occurred during a terrific thunderstorm, and it is supposed the electric current imay have been responsible for the dr- 1 fective signalling. The first train was at standstill, and the second came down up- on it at the rate of 50 miles an hour.‘ The locomotive of the latter crashed through the brake van of the former. and telescoped three passenger carriages. The moxirg train was not injured. Heartrending screams and cries for assis tance filled the air, but the passengers were so massed in the debris that‘they were :ex ricated only after the greatest diflicuny. All three carriages ‘were crowdrd with excursionieta. â€"Sunday a train of 12 cars jammed a with people. left Bangor'Meq for Bar . Harbour, where it was expected the .

The slip was hinged at the inner ‘ end, the outer end being supported by chains, by which it was raised or lowered to suit the tide. The wharf extends on ‘ both sides flush with the end of the gang plank. When the train arrived at the 1ferry there was a rush for the steamer ISappho. The first few passengers had crossed the gang plank safely. and it is said that 100 people were massed upon the plank. Suddenly they felt the plank give way beneath them. The long timher supporting the plank broke in the middle. The hinges held up one end and the chain the ether, while the broken ends of the plank dipped, and a struggling. screaming mass of humanity was plunged into the water, 15 feet below the wharf. A few clung to the inclined sides of the plank, but at least 150 were struggling in the wa‘er.

Grandpa is stretched in the hammock, With his legs hanging over in space; Grandpa is peacefully sleeping, With a newspaper spread on his face; Grandpa is snoring serenely, There is peace. I suppose, in his breast; His hands are eontentedly folded, And a wasp has just lit on his vest. The insect approaches his collar, It dailies awhile here and there, Now it finds its way under the paper, And grandpa is up in the lit. His legs are entwined with the branches, The buttons are torn from his vest- You can tell by his words and his action! That grandpa’s no longer at rest. â€"Chicago Times-Herald. At $10 III. ‘Week.
