I clasp in mine her dimpled hands That lead me as with silken bands; Although no pressure I can fesl Ecstatic raptures through me s ea'; My blood bounds lika tbe heaving sea I love the maid— Does she love me?

PHIL THORN'S BRIDGE BY II. S. KELLEK. "Wife, I wish we were rich." ' For what?' asked Mrs. Thorn, as she 1 id aside lier knitting. "For Phil's sake, the boy has a grost desire to rise in tho world. Ho has al- ready gone as far as liu can iu his stud- ioB at school. If I had the means I would send him to an academy, k .vo him prepare for college, and thm meet his ambitious i-.irn," rj p lied Mr. Thorn. "I agree with you, hus band ; but tho farm is small, and tho mortgage not a little .burden for us to carry. Eluca- tion is a great thing for a person to have. I cc uld wish no better wish for our ioy than to see him advanced a3 rapiul y as ho desires. But I cannot sec the way clear to do it." Ju3t then a loud stamp ing of foot sounded iu the back entry. The door opened, and a rudd y-eheekod boy of sixteen or seventeen years ot age en- tered. It wai Phil, the subject of tho above conversation. O io glance, at his bright, intelligent facj and earnest {•yes would toll tho observer that tho possessor, had lie tho opportunity, would some day roach, an enviable po- sitiou in tho world. L' ho had tho opportunity—ah , "There's the rub. " Ho was a clo-e student , deep thinker- and li d mastered the rudiments thor- oughly-—lut could go no further be- cause of a lack, of nionas. At ths dis- trict school he w:is known as the best scholar; upon the playground as the fin- est ballist. Whatever ho essayed, bo it stu l y o r plny, he put his whole heart into tho lask ; an:l , by his earnest en- dea vors, won a leadi:ig position. Tho farm was small, and tho mort- gage heavy. Under such adverse cir- cumstances Phil was obliged to suffer a not pleasant restraint. "Winter sped along, and the days began to grow graduall y longer, telling of spring's ap- pioich. Phil' s spirit grew strangely moved. A subtle something—perhaps that new and wondc-rful sense—told him that the time was near at hand for him to make his first grand attempt. The one great dream of his life—college —held its magic before him; and , when slumber closed hip eyelids, his fancies wcro of commencements,' ora- tions and nrraduatinrr honors. Tlu soft touch of balmy spring touched the snow-clad mountains. Little rills and babbling brooks grew into rivers, and rushed down the slores helping to swell tho great current of the valley stream—the Mohawk. "Do you think tho brid^o will stand it, father? ' asked Phil, us the two were standing upon tho rivar bank, watching the great clumps of ice d ash against the piers and float under tho brid ge. ''Yes, I think so, provided the river ice all goes down before West Caaada creek breaks up." "And if not?' "Then I fear the brid ge will not stand the pressure. You see, Phil, that small island just below the brid ge dams the ico back. If it were only river ice, that would gaduall y work down stream; but—and I hope I may be wrong—i f the creek breaks up and sends its ice into the river, I fear the bridge will be lifted from the pier3." It was a fine brid ge, and had been one of the attractions bj longing to Lit- tle Falls. Tho good people of tho town had watched its building, and had pet- ted it almost as a thini; ot life. It weathered the great Jrcshet last spring; it remains to be teon whether or no it will do as much now. The icj was piled high against tho island below tho bridge. The sound of the grinding, crunching ice, as it churned about in its massivenen coul d bo heard at a great distance. While Phil and hi3 father are stand- ing there upon the bank eyeing the bridge and ice, a sound falls upon tho ear3 of all—and with fell import. It sounds like tho gradual sliding away o! a mountain side. Everyone gathered there upon the bank knows the mean- ing of that souad. The creek has broken up. Then, like a great white monster, whose chill jaws are parted to engulf its prey, the ico lrom the west dashes, rolls, churns and tumble ia a heaving mass toward tho doomed bridge. A gust of cell comes beforo it, as though to tell tho anxious watchers what to wish—wish, against all power of reason to expect. Tha bri igo can- not be saved. A groan arises from, tho crowd r.s the gigantic float sweeps against the ice breakers and piles up these higher and iigher, a3 the mass be- hind adds its quantily. And then, with a powerful effort , the white monster raises the timbers fro m the piers, and sweeps the bridge away, grinding it to splinters betweea tha jagged icy teeth The persoas who have in hand the rebuild- ing of the bridge offer the following proposi- tion to emjineers, architects and people in general . To the person who will send to the proper authorities, the best general plan, estimates, etc., for a new bridge, will be awarded the sum of one thou- sand dollars. Edwaiid Lisle, Richard Fohbes. Tho foregoing was the notice, placed conspicuously in tho papers of the country. It met many eyes, and was the one subject of conversation among the townspeople. The bridge must be replaced at the farthest ; for, since its demolishment, one of the most prominent avj nucs of tra lo leadinc' iato Little Palis was cut off. Who will gam the bridge? Evi- dently some note l brid go builder, soma profe ssional eng ineer who h is a wido reputation. D-iys pas?, and Phil Thorn is still on the farm.

"' The summer bogan, and tha:i, one d.-:y, a strin ger in -company with Mr. Eiward Lisle, came to tho Taora ho.ne- stead and asked for Phil. Thero was a tumultuous emotion in the boy's heart when he entered tho par- lor where tho two guatleinen awaited him. 1'Master Thora, thii is Mr. J;im:s Or- ley of Albany, " said Mr. Lisle, by w.iy of introduction. Phil bowed politely to tho strange gentleman. Tha lattor rose, and suiJ . ai ha took tho boy's hand : "So this is tho wondorful youag ar- chitect, is it?" P'.iil' s heart almost jumped up into his throat. Thsre can bj but one mcaa- i;i" to tho stranger's words. "llus—has miao buca accepted?' Phil fnltei-eii . "It has, Philip. In proof of which allow mo to present you with thi j ,'' re- spoiided Mr. Lisle, hind ing tha aston- ished boy a check for one thousand dol- lars. "My dear, young friend," said Mr.- Orlcy, "tho price in itself is a mcro nothing to what you may yet achicvo. You seem to posses? tho natural instinct a;id tho qualities which mako up an architect . I am a professional in tho lusinoss, and if you would like to con- ti::uo what you lwvo so worthily com- menced, my offico at Albany is open to you. " I shall not endeavor to tell you how Phil's parents received the glad news of their son's victory. Tho papers far find near told how a mere country boy, yet i;i his teens, had snatched tha honors away from the professionals. The mortgage upon the farm was cleared . Phil accepted tho generous offer made by Mr. Orloy, tho noted archi- tect, and, instead of going to college, went into the office and becamo famous as a great engineer and brid ge builder. — [Yankee Blade. A Rich Beggar's Guild. Perhaps the most curious of all guild? in an oriental town , and one which flourishes exceedingly in CavaHa, is the beggars' guild . Like other guilds, they have their own 1mw>, their presi- dent and their Council ; this Council gives a di ploma to those who wish to beg, and without pe:misi;ion no ono durst 3cek alms at the churches, mosquos, or street doors ; all ths legitimate beg- gars would rise up ia nrm? agaiast him, and his life would not ba worth much. Fiiday is the recognized beggars' day, on which day lh-.-y go lrom door to door and pet their wallets filled with bread and beans; these are divi led by the communit y; nothing h private property ; it i3 against their creed. The beggars' brotherhood h rich ; they possess house property, tho income of which is spent ior the benefit of tho community, and onco a yeaf—on the day of St. John the Charitable—they have a feast. They all go to church oa this day ; it would bo hard to recognize the tidily dressed members of this hon- orable community in their best clothes; rags and tatters are only de riguaur for them when they are oa their rouada. Bsg- gary pays very well. If a beggar's daughter marries she is dowered by the community, the President sees to her I etrothal, and his consent is essential . At Salonica B ind Demetriu? is ihs President; he is easily recognized as ho parades the streets, singiag hij ever- lp.stincr wail: Day and night, day and night, I Uvo in the dirk. Wretch that I am! I hear the world, but I cannot see it. And though you know him to b3 a rich man, that his wife is well c!rosso 1, an 1 that his daughter will receive a handsome dower, his plea for alms i3 almostirresistible. —!Cornhiil Magazine. Why Bandannas Wash Poorly. Tho real bandanna d oo3 not wash well, no matter how carefully it is laun- dered in cold water. Its color fades. Thii is explained by the way tluse old- fashioned handkerchiefs are made. The original squares of yellow Indin s-ilk are saturated with tho red dyo and piled one upon the other in a great h. ap.

GlasscOck, of Indiaiiopo'is, is very un- popular in every League city but Iudianap j lis and possibly Philadelp hia.

As Chicago now bus four men who can pl.iy short field, and Burns has not come up to his usual standard on third , it is likely the latter will be released , Williamson place'! at the Uig, and either Van Haltrcn or Duffy scut between tho bases. Muiuiis, of Pittsburg, thinks that the rule co:npellins the pitcher to hold the ball momentarily in full view of tho battcrshould bo done away with , and that tho twirlel should l.o allowed to start tho ball from any position.
