"THE BOY : IS COMING HOME. "
I tell you It is busy times jest now for me
and marm ,
The Boy Is comln home to spend Thanks-
giving on the farm ;
'TIs ten long years since he went West to
mingle In Its strife.
He's done first-rate , -furthermore , he's
* " " got a Western wife.
We got the letter yesterday , and marm she
laid awake
Full half the night to praise the Lord and
think what she must bake.
If I should feed the turkey now as she de
clares I must
Why , long before Thanksglvin' he would
swell all up and bust ;
I've had to grind the choppln'-knife , and
go to choppln mince ,
And things are brewin rich and fine and
fit to feed a prince.
The Boy , he writ for chicken-pie , "W ! . .
double crust , " says he , . <
"And mixed with cream , that lovely pie you
used to make for me. "
He wants big red apples from the hillside ,
Northern Spy ,
Jjind butternuts - I've got 'em round the
stovepipe , brown and dry ;
Be wants to lay the fire himself with maple
hard and sound ,
And pop some corn upon the hearth when
all are gathered round.
He wants the things he used to have when
he was but a lad ,
'TIs somewhat strange , It may be , but It
makes us mighty glad ;
We're both a little whiter , but our love ,
depend upon't ,
Is Jest as green and stlddy as the hills of
old Vermont.
It flustered marm a bit at first about the
Western wife ,
What she should do for "one so fine and
used to city life ;
But tucked between the Boy's big sheets she
found a little slip.
She . read It with a happy tear , & gently
quivering lip :
"Dear mother. " them's her very words , "I
write this on the sly
So don't tell John , but make for him a big ,
big pumpkin pie ;
I know It will delight him , for he still Is
but a boy-
His mother's boy - and so he fills his wife's
gjnd heart with Joy. "
And so you see , 'tis busy times Jest . now for
me and mllrtri > , ' .

THE BIRD : OF THE DAY.
,
Ornithologist ' Say That lie Is of
Mexican Origin.
§ 33 HOSE who claim to
, - know say the bird
, of Thanksgiving is
1 - : of Mexican origin.
He is a relic of past
ages , yet he refuses
, , , to take -his plnce
among the other
relics , for he is with
- . ' us < ' 'yet. Cortez knew
-S _ 'Z
_ him and esteemed
him just as we do.
Coronado wrote
feelingly : about his good qualities and
niade the bird famous in Europe. The
reason < why Mexico : is regarded as the
home of the bird is found in the fact
that he is first mentioned by the Spanish
after their more or less triumphal tours
through the country of the Montezuma.
At the same time there is no reason to
believe . that lie did not habitually ] ] roost
as : high in the trees of New England as
he does to-day-or rather to-night. Philip
of : Pokanoket ; : wore turkey feathers in
his war bonnet and called them as good
as : : eagle plumes , which they no' doubt
were. \ Whatever the turkey's real origin ,
born as he was ; long before the paleface
came to the country , the fact remains
that he is the one bird that Columbia
claims for her own , singly and collec
tively. There is not another wingedcrea -
ture that can approach the turkey in
general < excellence. . Wild or domesticat
ed < this rule holds good. ; The roast goose
fold England : is not to be mentioned
] the pre ; nce of the turkey. The lat
ter , with the concomitant American
pumpkin ' pie-or mince pie , if you choose
hag never been equalled and never
will be.
Thal1kI'Jldvln. ' In the Kitchen.
Thanksgiving day , the American tam-
y ; festival and feast of plenty , is not
yet < so many years away from its origin
that we do not feol instinctively that
what ft fain in elegance in our > < : tim
I .
of greater resource , greater elaboration
and daintier taste , it is likely to lose in
charm. A \ stately banquet in the city ,
with rich appointments , with banked
chrysanthemums , and roses from the
florist , with the deft and silent service
of trained helpers , with electric lights
softened by silken shades , with , delicate 1 . ,
dishes compounded by a trained chef ,
and glowing fruits from many climes- :
this need not , fortunately , lack the groat I
essentials of the thankful spirit and the '
loving heart. But who will not admit
without question that dinner in the coun-
try house is better , in the farmhouse
better still in the
, homestead of many
generations and garnered associations
best of all ?
Of course It is. For one thing , the
city dweller can never enjoy : to the full
that period of preparation which in the
ample country kitchen is still half the
festival , and which in the old time be
fore the cook stove came , when th ?
kitchen wasthe most beautiful
as well
as the "homiest" room in the house , of-
fered even greater delights to the family
gathered before its huge open fire. The
change began when Lucy Larcom was a
child.
"Oooking stoves were coming into
fashion , " she wrote , "but they were
clumsy affairs , and our elders thought
that no cooking could be quite so nice as
that which was done by an open fire.
We younger ones reveled in the warm
beautiful glow , that we look back to as
a remembered sunset. There is no such
home splendor now.
"The fireplace was deep , and there was
a settle in the chimney corner where
three of us youngest girls could sit to-
gether and toast our toes on the andirons
-two Continental soldiers in full uni
form , marching one after the other-
while we looked the
up chimney into a
. square ! of blue akyt and sometimes caught
a snowflake on our foreheads. Pota
toes were roasted in the ashes , and the
Thanksgiving turkey in the tin kitchen ,
the business of turning ' the spit being
usually delegated to some of us small
folk , who were only too glad to burn our
faces In honor of the annual festival.
"When supper was finished and the
teakettle was pushed back on the crane ,
and the backlog was reduced to a heap
of fiery embers , then was the time for
listening to sailor yarns and ghost and
witch legends. The wonder seems some-
how to have faded out of those tales of
old since the gleam of red-hot coals died ]
away from the hearthstone. "

,
The most apoalling mine disastei
In the history of the United States oc
curred Saturday afternoon in the little
town of Cherry Bureau County , Ill.
A fire that started in the main shaft
of the St. Paul Coal Company's works
choked out the lives of 300 men work-
ing there. Thirteen rescuers who went
down into a blazing'shaft were roasted
alive to a man. A few score of surviv-
ors , blackened by smoke and singed
by flame crawled from reeking crev-
ices in the earth to tell an incoherent
story of almost inconceivable horrors
In the corridors below. The rest -
there were 565 human beings in the
mine when the fire broke out-per-
ished in the flame-swept works.
Saturday night the exits of the mine ,
from which smoke and flame had
belched since 1:30 : in the afternoon ,
were battened down. This heroic rem
edy was decided on as a last means of
extinguishing the fire in the works
beneath. Above a seething furnace , in
whIch three-fourths of the male popula-
tion of the community is imprisoned ,
the town waited in silent dread for the
dawning of the morning. When day
came the hatches were to be opened
and the toll of death begun. The cry
of the widow and | the orphan rang
dolefully on the ear.
The fire broke out at about 1:30.
Engineer John Cowley , who is in
charge of the elevator running from
the surface to the higher of the three
veins in the mine , had descended with
a load of six bales of hay. On the
way down the hay was ignited by his
torch. Reaching the level below him
he dragged the bales out of the car
and attempted to hurl them into the
sump of the second shaft , at the bot-
tom of which is a pool of water. Be-
fore he could do so both the first and
second shafts were afire. A strong
draft coming up to the surface turned
the two shafts into red-hot flues. Al-
most before the danger could be real-
ized the mine was ablaze everywhere ,
and the main avenues of escape cut off.
The Cherry disaster , like every great
disaster in America , developed its men
of the hour its heroes. There is in
her'ry one man who is deserving of
all the glory that the highest personal
bravery and self-sacrifice merit. He
is Dr. L. B. Howe the St. Paul Min-
ing Company's physician. To him
twenty-five of the rescued miners owe
their lives. Escaping by a miracle
from red-hot , lift in which twelve of
his companions were roasted like quail
on a griddle , he returned six -times
alone into the seething inferno of the
shaft , and each time came to the sur-
face with a group of men he had saved.
He desisted from his efforts only after
it had become apparent to every one
that to descend in to the shaft again
would be certain death.
Exploration of the mine was begun
Sunday. Volunteers , equipped with
oxygen helmets , essayed to explore the
shaft. Two of them in a bucket were
lowered three times down the air
shaft. They found no bodies , living
or dead. At a depth of 370 feet the
temperature of the mine was found
to be practically normal-94 degrees-
indicating that the fire had burned
itself out.
Mine : Still Burning. .
Fire in the Cherry mine continued
Monday and Tuesday to block all ef -
forts at rescue of the 300 or more en-
tombed miners or recovery of their
bodies. The pit remained sealed , and ,
although every effort to fight the fire _
was made , it probably will be several
days before the shaft can be opened I
with safety. Temperature taken at the
top of the burning mine Tuesday reg- Jri W
istered 108 degrees Fahrenheit. This '
was in the wet surface sand and in- ) . /
.c
dicated that the fire below is intense. to
got
Meanwhile the hopeless mourners A
were giving part of their attention to -
the rites over the victims whose
bodies had been found. Funerals of
eight of the miners were held Tues
day , and the surviving miners and
families of the dead filed through the J
streets behind the hearses , which were
driven in line. Several of the dead
were taken in funeral trains to Ladd j
and other near-by towns. Special fu 1 :
neral [ trains Wf. - a ordered and hearses
were provided from Ladd , Spring Val1
ey , La Salle and Mendota. Officials -
of the mine workers' unions took an is
atctiva part in the burial certmoalt , .
