of the gallant old commander, let
them sink deep into your hearts:
"And now my comrades, when

The August moon foils on the iNtb
at 8:10 o'clo"k. The waning moon
is in conjunction with Juj iter and
Venus ou the 1st, ami with Jupiter
lor the second time on the 2Dtli.
Sb" is iit her nearest point to Mercury
on the Hi J and to Uranus oo the Dth.
On the 24th she is very near Nep-
tune. On the 2.'ith she is in close
conjunction with Saturn at 1:21) in
the nfernoon. passing one degree and
three minutes south. tiAsouie por-
j tions of the globe 82 and *70 degrees
i south declination, nml where the
! dark side of the earth is turned to-
ward1 Ah.n.lv«M<i luminary, the moon
will lie seen to occult*.Sumrii. This
w ill lie the fifth occultatiVn of Saturn
that has occured d11r111i.imBMMPI^
year. The moon complete* tlie plnn^j
etarv circuit by her conjunction with
Mars on the "all.
feeling the grandest of any of them.
Stripes of whiie-eotton cloth down

A stiff newspaper cup, with a knob
of red fluunel flying from the very
top, completed the out lit.
Away they went; and I lie band
composed of three boys—one pluy-
i ing on a wheezy old tin whistle,
! while the other two banged away as
