The Massachusetts legislature, when not alb
sorbed in the temperance question, is having
lively fight over bill to repeal the Law imposing
head tax on immigrants. In view Of tine deci-
sion recently given in California, to which ref
erence has been made in TIE STAR, that such Q
tax Is unconstitutional, il would seem that the
legislators Of the Bay state might be better
employed.

A man by the name of Jusen, some time
ago, lost check, drawn on the First Nation
alBank Of Green Bay for $3.50, on which he
had payment stopped. During the fore part
of this week one Jacob jacobson presented
the check to Harter & Horvath's as security
for goods purchased, and after examining it.,
DIR. Burnheim, clerk in that establishment,
gave him $3.50 for it. On presenting the
check for payment he learned, for the fret
time, that it had been stolen and payment
stopped. The loss will be sorely felt by Mr..
Burnheim, who is worthy young man and
much respected by his acquaintance. --lH9r

THE BOYS.


There come the boys! Oh dear, the noise
The whole house feels the racket
Behold the knee OF Harry's pants,
And weep Ger Bertie's jacket;
But never mind, If eyes keep bright,
And limbs grow straight and timber,
We'd rather lose the trees whole bark,
Than find unsound the timber
Now hear the tops and marbles roll
The foors-Oh woe betide them
And must watch the banisters,
For l know boys who ride them
Look we'll sS you descend the stairs,
often find them haunted
BY ghOstly toys that make no noise
just when their noise is wanted.
The very chairs are tied in pairs,
And made to prance and caper
What swords are whitfield out OF sticks
What brave hats made of paper
The dinner-bell peals loud and well,
To tell the milkm2n's eoming;
And then the rush of "Steam car trains"
Il Sets all our ears a-humming.
How oft say, ''What shall I do
To keep these children quiet?''
If could find good receipt,
certainly should try it.
But what to do with these wild boys,
And all their din aud Clatter,
Is really quite grave affair
No Laughing, trlfing matter.
"Boys will be boys"-5ut not for long;
All could we bear about us
This thOught-how very soon our boys
Will learn to do without us
How soon but tall and deep-voiced men
Win gravely call US Mother p
Or we be stretching empty hands
From this world to the other. -
More gently we should chide the noise,
Sand when night quells the racket,
Stitch in but loving thoughts and prayers
While mending pants and jacket! .ts
