KISS ME. MAMA.

Kiss me, mama, before | go to
Sleep" How simple boon, yet
how soothing to the little one is that
soft, gentle kiss The little head
sinks contentedly on the pillow, for
all is peace and happiness within =
The bright eyes close, and the rosy
lip is revealing in the bright sunny
dreams of innocence. Yes, kiss it
mamma, for that goodnight kiss will
linger in memory when the giver
lies Wondering in the grave The
memory of a gentle, loving mothers
kiss has cheered many lonely wan
derer's pilgrimage, and has been the
beacon light to illuminate his DESC
late heart for remember life has
many stormy billow to cross, many
rugged path to climb, with thorns
to pierce, and we know not what is
in store for the little one SO sweetly
slumbering, with no marring care to
disturb its peaceful dreams. The
parched and fevered lips will be-
come dewy again, as recollection
bears to the sufferers couch a moth
er's love-and mothers kiss.
Then kiss your little one, kind moth
or, ere they sleep; there is magic
power in that kiss which will endure
to the end of lite.

DIDN'T LIKE 1T.

A lady with poodle dog entered
smoking car on a Western train the
other day, and when the conductor
endeavored to persuade her to go
into another car she refused, saying
her presence would deter the occu>
pants from smoking. A gentleman,
however, took out a cigar and be,
gan to smoke, when she wrenched
it from his mouth, exclaimiug, "If
there is anything l do hate, it is to-
bacco smoke" The passengers who
had witnessed the affair were con
vulsed with laughter, but the often.
ding smoker suppressed whatever
emotions may have been struggling
for expression in words or action,
and maintained throughout the same
imperturbable gravity that had char,
acterized him from the first. Calm
ly rising from his seat, he opened
the window nearest him, fastened il
up, and, reaching over the seat back
took that woman's poodle dog anI
threw it out of the window as far be
yond as possible, at the same tim'
saying: 'sIf there is anything l d.
hate, it's poodle dog"

/ lFrom the st. Paul Press.
a Doa CHASSIS A RAILROAD
TRAIN FOR FOURTEEN MILES,
AND KEEPS UP WITH TT
wednesday last was "a good DAY
for the race"-the canine race Is
referred to-as the following true
tale Of Minnesota dog, related by q
reliable witness, shall prove
On that day, as one Of the trains on
the Lake Superior & Mississippi
Rail Road stopped at Centreville, a
few miles beyond White Bear Lake,
a lady took seat in one Of the pas
senger coaches, and the train started.
When it stopped at White Bear sta
ton a dog of medium size, and with
rather a shaggy coat, came along
side upon the platform, and was no.
ticed to be very warm and painting
heavily. Again, a few miles further
on. halt was made to take water,
Conductor Bond called the attention
Of some Of the passengers to the fact
that the dog had followed them from
White Bear lake, as he supposed. -
The train was going off, and short
ly doggy was seen close behind
| The passengers became interested,
and crowded to the rear Of the car
~ watch the race. Occasionally, at
some pool beside the track, doggy
would dash down, and take a fow
drops of the cooling fluid, varying
this sometimes with bath, and then
with sharp yelp or two, as if in
pain at the idea of being left behind,
dashed on. In this way an even
race was maintained until down
grade was reached, when the tram
made long swift dash to gain I'M
petus for rising grade beyond.
Doggy now fell behind; he tried
hard but it was too much for him !;
his little body was, however, just full
of pluck and perseverance, and 10
the delight of the passengers, whose
sympathies for the canine hero, was
fully aroused when the up grade
was reached, doggy made good his
loss and caught up with the train
Conductor Bond said he would stop
and take up the weary runner, now
showing signs of exhaustion, but
there was no one to take care OF him
or deliver him to the journeys end.
By this time the lady passenger
from Centerville become interested
to know what it was which SO excit-
ed the passengers, and as she saw
the little racer, she Immediately
recognized him as the pet of the
friends with whom she had been
visiting at Centreville. He had fol
lowed her to the depot, and gallant
ly attended her on foot on her jour
ney, until within about four miles o
st. Paul. Conductor Bond seized
the bell-rope, the train was quickly
stopped, and doggy was taken OF
board, where he was given first elias
,, quarters and free ride, which h
! had amply earned, by fairly running
; a fourteen. mile race with q passen
, ger train making its usual time. |
, is needless to add that doggy was a
delighted as his weary little bod.
would allow, to regain sight of tn
friend he had followed, and that he
was the hero of the hour with all OF
board the train.

The Financial Situation
Reports More Favorable.

New York, 2-G p. NJ. There was better
feeling in financial circles to-day, and private
advices report an improvement in some OF
the leading cities of the Union. Some bank
ers received kilograms from Cincinnati and
other western cities to stop sending currency.
The outflow of currency to neighboring cities
was stopped in many cases to-day.
Cotton is moving more freely from the
South on certified checks and moderate
amounts of currency recently received from
the North. This was reported to be partcu-
larly true of Mobile, Savannah, and New Or
leans.
The premium on greenbacks has been look
ed upon within the past few days barome-
ter of public confidence, and to day there was
an improvement. Early in the day the prem
ium was l2 per cent, but later in the
day it declined to a per cent, and the de-
cline was accompanied by unusually large
sales. This is one of the most important in
dcations of returning confidence, showing
that the people are giving up their boards at
the tempting premim of the past few days.
Washington, 2. The financial situation in
Washington remains unchanged. At all the
banks to-day the deposits exceeded the dis
bursements. The business at the clearing
house for four days amounted to $4,000.
Philadelphia, .. The creditors of Clark {
Co. have voted them an extension, their af-
fairs being found in favorable condition.
