The Old Clock In the Corner.
BY EUGENE ]. HALE

BY EUGENE J. HALE.
The leafless trees are brown and bare;
The snowtiakes sweep through the frosty air.
With the wintery wind they sport and play.
AS it YEARLY whistles the night away.
The time-worn clock In the corner stands,
With faded dial and rusted hands.
With ceaseless motion It's pendulum swings,
And this is the doleful song 1t sings /:
Tick-tick-tick! There are smiles and tears
In the mournful tale of hundSed years.
The voice Of Memory, soft and lew,
Whispers tonight OF the long ago.
There are friends you loved, there are hopes
That are dead and gone with the old, old year.
Spiders have woven their siken thread
In the dingy corner overhead,
mid the endless dust of the busy day
That hands now pulseless have swept away.
Thoughts and dreams of the old and new
Pass before me in fond review.
have watched the play OF q rosy child;
And the tender gaze OF youth that smiled
In raptures over a picture fair
And tiny curl of golden hair.
have seen him look with manly pride
On the fair sweet face of his new-made brlds.
Ihave heard All infants plaintive cry:
And care-worn mothers weary sigh;
And an aged father, old and gray,
Talking Of years that had gone away.
have seen the shadowy pail and bier
The lifeless form and the mourner's tear;
And have heard those words, 90 often said
Tenderly, over the dear ones dead:
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Life is fleeing, and God Is just.
U Memory, fond Memory! thou phantom Of
our woe
Thou sweet remin Ter of the hopes and dreams
of long ago!
Thou living shadow of the soul, that ever
comes at will,
When human lips have ceased to speak, and
human hearts are still.

week group Of five individuals were
conversing about firearms, when one
offered to bet the drinks that there
were not three revOlvers in the crowd.
The bet was taken and each man pro-
duced his arsenal. The result was six
revolvers, three Deringers and horse

The Difficulty with Jupiter.

There seems to be some trouble in the
planetory system. The first three satellites
of Jupiter are having family disturbance. It
is barely possible that the ring which has its
local habitation close to Saturn may have
been watching the successful progress of some
of our New York rings and is trying to get
control Of the supply Of light and gravitation
among the celestial bodies. At any rate there
is general muss up there somewhere, and it
journalists to hire Jules Verne's cannon and
send three or four reporters to find out what
the trouble is. Although up to this present
writing no volunteers for this aerial cruise
have presented themselves there will. un-
doubleday, be as many as the projectile will
hold when the hour arrives to start They
will probably buy tickets ''to Jupiter via the
moon" in order to interview that luminary
which has been somewhat coquettish of late.
They will come blackwell, the precise route
has not yet been determined. It Just occurs
to us to say that the old story about the morn
ing stars singing together seems to be some
what threadbare. They may have exercised
their voices when somewhat younger in kind
of family chorus, but of late years, if science
is to be trusted, they have had disturbances
up above which show plainly enough that
there is species of physical rebellion going on.
They do not regard the mselves as amenable
to the common law OF gravitation, but, in the
astercid zone, at least, they are flying about
at random, and getting themselves into such
out-of-the-way places that our astronomers,
who are sort of planetary police and detect
i've force, are kept on the alert all the time.
Once in while huge corner of something
gets Clipped off and goes kiting round the
heavens, much after the fashion Of New
York boy whose uncle has just died and left
him million, leaving blazing track behind
it for while and then ending like any other
burned out cinder.
Now, whatever might have been expected
of these youthful asteroids which seem to be
still sowing their wild oats, and which show no
intention Of settling down to the steady bust
ness of giving light, and of travelling with
the quiet and dignifed gait Of some of the
larger planets, we cannot refrain from ex-
pressing our surprise that the satellites of that
paternnl lighthouse keeper, quiet old Jupiter,
should have such registering tendency. We
have always looked upon that family Us we'll
brought up, and supposed they would be
always we'll behaved, But it seems the cid
rule about steady, old-fashioned fathers and
fast boys is just as true few miles up as il is
here. 1t is to he hoped that the quarrel will
