Sun*gildca as a golden stain
On 6<.ean*s limit:   Xot again Will they o'er rolHng waters sweep,
With seaweed wrupped, they long have lain In darkened cavenu of tbe deep.
fVhat mtittcrs now the quick despair, Vrhe shriek of cordage, clank of chain- TV-y went the wny that all must fare, ^*)d brief the stnigclc, dull the pain« AUilun-tng of tl)0 iicnse and brain, As tne enguIUng waves upleap.
And mow they ro.^t on ocean h plait In darCTDcd caverns of the deep.
They lie in hulls of ocean, where Kurr\Tr, with a murmuring strair^
The softly swaying waters hear
With iiiyrmd tongued a low rrfrain^ Thciw light-diMoIved depths cont.iin
What hopes and nuents, and ho shall keep. While sun shall shiue and moon shall wane,
In durkcDcd cavcma of the deep.

BOMB VIRGINIA   BLUE LAWS.
Parltaa    N.w    Bnaland    Not   th.   Oaly
Stern Caniiiionw.alib.
The offleial public llogglng ot women In Virginia bas aroused much iinfavor- ablo comment and many blltur re¬ marks about "chivalry In the Old Do¬ minion." As a matter of tact, says tho New York Tribune, tho Incident Is nothing more than a mild revival of tho "blue laws" of Colonial times— lawa Burpasslng lu severity any at- trllHiteil to Connecticut or any other Puritan colony. It haa long been a by-wiird that In Connecticut a man was forbidden to kiss bla wife on Sun¬ day. Uut In Virginia any young woman who was guilty of flirtation or who en¬ couraged more than ono man to pay her BPntlmeutal attention was liable to bu tloggpil! It was forbidden to speak evil of dignitaries In New England; but In Virginia If one ventured to crit¬ icise the governor ho was put Into the pillory. Tho straltlaco rellglousnees of tho Puritans has been made fun of; but In Cavalier Virginia It was forbid¬ den to "dlsparnge a minister;" to tako a voyage on Sunday save go to church, or to flro a gun on Sunday, excepting to ahoot an Indian. Tbat the shooting of Indians, oi course In defense of the colonists, was considered a proper fum Ilon on tbe Sabbath la shown by tho fact Ihat every bead of a family yvas required, under penalty to bring with him to church every Sunday a gun and plenty of ammunition. It is Interestlnn to recall too. that speeulol- lug In the markets by "buying fu¬ tures" waa atenily prohibited, under Iienalty ot tine. Imprisonment and the pillory. Since In old time In the "Kingdom ot Virginia" maidens were flogged for flirting, there la'no especial Incongruity In applying the same pun¬ ishment lo women convicted of gross Immoralities. Nevertheless, the liest Juilgnient of mankind must be that It was a performance which reflected no credit fnr those responsible for 11. Thore are those who approve ot tho whipping post for the punishment of wife beaters ami fnr C(»rtaln other male oftrnaeti. Hut the official flogging of women, uo niatler how much they may have forfeited their title to woman¬ hood, le altogrther revolting. It Is pain¬ ful to recall that It waa sanctloa.d and ordered by the grim pioneers of Wyatfs and Tearrtley's time. That It shiHil.l l>e done for any cauae In the llrst year of the 20th century U a sh«nie for which Virginia may well llluah.

SLYNK'S CIIARK Is In South Shields, nnd Mason's Chop House stands at tho lower coruer ot Slyne's Chare—.Ma- sou's Chop House, where generations of honest Tyneslde rallors have con¬ sumed pounds ot honest mutton nml beef, nml onions therewith. Vor your truo salt loves nn oulun ashore, wbiob makes hlni a plensnnter companion at sea. Mason's Chop IIoui-c Is a low- roofed, reU-tlled, tarred cottHge with a balcony—a "balcoUny" overhanging the river. It Is quite evideut tbat tbe "bnlcohny" was originally built, and has subsequently beeu kept In repair, by ships' carpenters. It I.s so glaring¬ ly shlp-sbape, eo redolent of tur, so ridiculously strong.
Tbe keeu, fresh breeze—and there Is nothing keener, fresher, stronger nnd wholesomer In the world lhau thut wblch conies rearing up between tbe two piers ot Ihe Tyue-lbis lireer.e blows right throu.nh .Mason's, nnd blows tbe fume of cuokiug uut Iuto Slyne's Chare.
It Is evening —ten-time— and tbo day's work Is almost done: tor Mason's doea Ilttle lu suppers. A bullet-headed boy Is rubbing pewter pots at tbe door. Mrs. Mnsoo. eomtortabl.v somnolent at the entrance of tbe Utile kltcheu, ivatebos her daughter—coinel.v, grnve- faced Annie Mason—"onr .\uule." as she Is called, who Is already folding the tnbleelolli.s.

It Is uil bruised and battered lu from the curve ot a square jaw to the cheek¬ bone, which Is liroken. Hut Ibe eye Is Intact; a shrewd, keeu e.ve, aecustoiuiVl to the peuetrniluu of a Norlbern mlsl - ocoustomed to 11 ilosescruiiuy of men's faces. It Is painfully obvious that this sailor—for gall and doihes aud mau¬ ner, set aside all otlier crafts—Is horri¬ bly rouscliius of Ills deformity.

"Confound It. Annie. Could I covae back to yoa with a face like this,, nnd you the prettiest lass 00 the Tyne¬ slde?"
f?ho Is fumbling with her nprnr string. There's a half-coqucttlsh bend ot her head—with tbe gray hairs al ready at the temple—awakened p<'r haps by some far-off echo In his pas slonatc voice. She looka up slowly, and docs not nnswer his question.
"Tell us." she says, slowly. "Tell uf where ye've Iwen."
"UeenI—oh. I don't know, lass! I dou't rightly remember. Not that It matters. Up the West Coast, trading backwards nnd fonvurds. I've got my master's eertlflcate now. Serving first mate on board the Mallard to Kal mouth for orders, nnd they ordered u? to the Tyue. I brought her round-1 knew the way. I thought you'd be married, lass.   But maybe ye are?"
".Maybe I'm daft," put In Annie, coolly.
"I greatly feared," the man goe.i on with the slow self-con.sclousiiess of one unaccustomed to talk of blmself. "I greally feared I'd meet up with n balru of yotu-9 playiug lu the doorway. Losh! I could uot havo slood that! But that's why I stayed nway. Aunie, lass! So that you might luaMy a mau wllh a face ou him. I thought you wonld uot know uie If I beld my handker- cblet over my other cheek!"
There Is n strange gleam In the wom¬ an's eyes—a gleam that one or two of the oid masters have succeeded lu catching and Imparting to the face uf their Madonnas, but ouly one ur two.
"How did you come by your hurt'/" she asks lu her low voice.
"Bonrd Ihe old Watciloi) going oul. You mlud tho old ship. We had a fire lu tbe bold, uud tbe skipper be would go dowu aloue to locate It betore we cut a bole lu Ihe deck and shipped tho hose In. The old man did not come uji again. Ye mind him. Old Ilutlierfoid ot Jarrow. And I went down and looked for him. It wus an In¬ ferno of smoke uud Ure, and something In tbe cargo stinking like —like a witch's cauldrou as It burnt. I got a bold ot tbe old man, and was fetching bim out on my bauds and knees, when something busts up and sends us ull througb the deck. I had three months lu Valparaisc boaplttil, but I saved old Jack Uutherford, of Jarrow. Aud when I got up and looked at my face I snw tbat It was uot In the nature of things that I could ever ask a lass to bnve me. 80 I Just stayed away and mnde believe that—thnt I bad changed my mind."
The man pauses. He Is not gUb ot speech, though quick enough at sea. As he tnkes np tho Ilttle teapot and shakes It roundwlse, after the manner ot the galley, bis great browu hnnd shakes too.
"I would not bave come back here.' he goes on after a silence, "but tho Mallard was ordered to Ihe Tyne. And a clinp must do his duly by his shipmates and bis owiicis. And I tbought it would be safe- after eleveu years. When 1 saw the old place and smelt the smell ot the old woman's frylng-iian I could not get past the (Innr.

lie Is not looking at her. He seems to llhd that dlfflcult. So he docs not see the queer Utile smile-rather sad¬ der, lu Ilself, tban tears.
"Aud you stayed nway eleven yenrs -because o' thai?" says tUo womau, slowly.
"Ay, you know, lass. I'm no great hand nt the preaching and Bibles and the like, but It seems pretly clear tbat Ihem who's working things did not think II lit tbnt we should marry. And so It was sent. 1 got lo think It so In llrae-least.I IliluU It'.s that sometlnu.''. And no woman would like lo say. •That's my mau-hlni with ouly halt a face.'   So I Just sta.ved awny."
"All for tbat?" asks the woman, her faee, which Is sllll pretly and round anil rosy, working couvulslvily.
"Ay, lass."

nubber bns done a great deal for civilization, and civilization has done a great deal for rubber, bnt bolh nre Indebted lo C'harles tloodyear, hero aud martyr, to wbom the manufactur¬ ers of the Unlled States sbould cn-ct an ebonite monumenl as high as the shaft on Bnnker Ulll. "I believe," snld Uanlel Webster, In the famous patent suit In wblch he fought llie good Hght for Clood.vear, "tbut Charles (ioodyear Is lo go down to posterity lu tbe history of the arts In this country in Ibat great class of luveuturs at tbe head of which stands Ilobert Fullou, In which class stand the names of AVhltney and Morse, and Ic which cloas will stnnd, not fnr removed, tbe humble name ot Charles d'ooilyear."
(ioodyear was a Connecticut Y'nnkee, born at Naugatuck, December 2;i, l.SOO; those now living who remember him In the flesh kuew hliu ns a frail Ilttle man wllh soulful eyes nnd a syiu- pnthetlc nature. Goodyear after de¬ voting the energies of his life fo ex¬ periments discovered vulcnnlzatlon. a jirocess which neutralizes the adhe¬ siveness of rubber, while hardening It. so tbat beat does not dissolve It or cold Impair its elasticity. The chemists h.ad sought the great secret In vain. Triumph was reserved for a man who was always In debt aud somellines In prison, and occasionally reduced to Ihe most pitiful shifts to keep the wolf from tho door. Ooodyear wns origin¬ ally a hardware dealer In a small wny, but he got Interested In rubber when It began to make a stir In the world with the first Importation ot shoes from Brazil. They were soon being made In New England, but Ibe busi¬ ness tumbled to niln when the rubber decomposed lu hot weather nnd gave out nn offensive odor. No one hnd a good word to say for the stuff-It aold for flve eents a pound In the general disgust-but Ooodyear, although with¬ out money or cretUt, set to work to re¬ habilitate the reputation of gum elas¬ tic, ns he alwnys called It. He thought of rubber all day and dreamed ot It all ulgbt, aud It adhered to his hands nnd clothing so that they were one and In¬ visible. "If you meet a man," said some one who wnuted to describe (Ioodyear. "wbo bas ou an India rub¬ ber cap, stock, coat, vest nnd shoes, wllh nu India rubber purse without a ceut of money lu It. that Is he." In chasing what seemed to his frieuda a wlll-o'-the-wlsp (ioodyear was often In the panwshlpa. He opce left his um- brcUn with Cornelius Vanderbllt for some ferry tickets, nnd nt auotber time sold his children's school books for $."i, wblch he ueeded for his experliiH'iils. But he bad a devoted family, like most geniuses, nnd his wife and ehlldreu were Just as uiuch wrapped up In rub- licr as he wns. To harden his gum elas¬ tic Coodyear mixed magnesia willi It and turned out .some shoes beautiful In look at. for the man had the arlislle sense, but as usual, tlii'y decoiupiMi!. He llioughl he had hit upon Ihe secrei with ninie ncld. took out a patent ami embarked In the busiuess of luaUiii:; sluies nnd toys. Bnd times swejit away his profits befoie he learned Hint he had made another failure, and Ibero were more vlslls to tbe pawnbroker.
About this time (Ioodyear met Na¬ thaniel Hayward. who wus fusslug wllh rubber lu a factory at Woliurn, where he wns regarded ns n huiuiless Clank. To Hayward It wus revealed iu a dream that rubber could be hard¬ ened by mixing sulphur with It and exposing the eomponud to tbe lUii. The process gave out n rank odor, wliUb made Hayward a nulsauce lu Ihe factory, but he toob out a paten* ou If. (ioodyear. being struck with the Idea, bought the patent. The two men leased a buildiug aud weut lu for maklug life-preservers. But tbe secret hail not been discovered, allbough Hayward was on the right scent-In hot Weather 11 seemed a wrong one to purchasers of thellfe-preservers. (iood¬ year was not dismayed. He wns al¬ ways baking In the compound ot sul¬ phur and rubber, but with no satisfac¬ tory results. Yet he was "warm," ns they say In tbe children's game. Ono iilglit while gesticulating on his favor¬ ite theme with u pleee of sulphurated gum It came In coutact wllh the red- liot stove, lustead of mell lug as usual the stuff charred like leather. Was n very high heat needed to hardeu rub ln^r? Tbe eulliuslust treuibled with anllclpallou. But there wns the cold - It was a winler's night. Would the mass lose lis llexllilllly lu Ihe frec-ilng air? (ioodyear nailed It against tbe house. The next morning the coui- pouud was as elastic as ever. He had discovered vulcaul-<iatlon. The secret was that rubber, with a slight aduilx- lure of sulphur, hardened and loat Its iiillieslveness but uot Us flexibility wheu subjcclcd to a teuiperalure ot from :::>(( to I'TO degrees Kahreiilieli. Neither heat nor cold afterward af¬ fects It. but It can be over-vulcanized into what Is known as ebonite. Gocsl year perfeiii d his process, took out a paleut. aud for fourleeu years foiiilit infrliiKemenls in thciourls until Judge (Jricr dicUleil In his favor lu 1S."J1;. The llllgatloii kept hllll as poor as a church mouse-he was lu prison tor debt lu I'rance when the cross of the I,eglon uf Honor was liesluweil on liiiii but to tlie cud of his life be exiHrliiieuieil with his beloved product.
