A Fragment.

fragment.
There's many life chained down by circum-
stance
And tethered to close and narrow SCOPE.
That wildly throbs impatient to advance,
AUD sore to join it's dear desire and hoIe;
fes brooding in the realms Of hopes expanse,
Fails down within it's narrow beaten track,
Aud wakes a. last from out lifelong trance
10 find in death each hope turned empty
back.
1t is uot only to the scroll Of fame,
Nor to the sculptur'd stone to honor raised.
Is limited the noble deed and name;
These, in their greatness known, the world
has praised,
But many life has been whose dying flame
Has tiickered dimly to lowly end
Whose noble deeds deathless name might
frame,
Yet died, unknown, unbonored, with no
friend.
There havo been heroes more than battles
make
Whose greatness never reached a herald.
There have been martyrs, never at the stake
Who suffe: ed martyrdom thro' lingering
years
As noiseless as the snow faIls flake by fake
And mel's unseen upon the rolling wave,
30 their pure lives in silent actions spake.
Their virtues mute, went down into the
grave.
The iils OF lifo are manif ,ld-they come
Upon the righteous and the bad the same.
The rich and poor alike must take their sum.
For'rouble Knows no station, caste or name ;
In lfes great camp above the merry hum
or thoughtful life, steals in the solemn tone
VI sorrow, heating his low muffled drum,
And tie tramping on, with rendering wal,
and moan.
1ime cree ps upon us urawares, the years
Like an waves roll up aud onward 20.
The burdens of the day, joys, hopes and fears,
Move ever with a cesseless ebb and flow;
LOOK back upon the rolling past that rears
Its waves in silent tempest, and behold!
1t fills the mind With many mingled fears.
Fears for the thn9 g the future may behold.
And shall we wall and sorrow for the dead?
MAJ, rather for the living drop tear!
Theirs Is the moist eye, theirs the heart of
lead,
Theirs the dropping eoul that needeth
cheer,
Then weep, weep for the living, theirs the
woe.
The ills # LIE arc ended with tho deadI
ihey leave their sorrows and their griefs be-
low,
Tne living have hfes fu ure to d.ead!
we know the present and the bygcne, too;
We know what We have been and whar wa
are;
But, oh! that we the unborn futnre knew,
Would it the presents sweet contentment
mar2
Alas We know not Death alone is true;
But what shall fill the space that lies be-
tween?
We cannot say, We may not catch the olew.
Or know our parts in each succeeding sceneI

from Cape May, and any individual may pro-
long his stay at the latter place until the close
of the season,

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
A Sandy Springs Man Relieved Of HIS Money

bold highway robbery was committed
Thursday, in the middle OF the day, in the
locality Of Thirteen and half street ami Ohio
avenue. Benjamin A. Rawlings made Cen
tennial pilgrimage to this city from Sandy
Springs, Montgomery county, Nd, and stopped
st the American house. Thursday nc wan
dered forth to view the city, and after stopping
many times at sampe-rooms he nellowed so
much that he WAS willing and anxious to make
friends Of everybody. In this condition he fell
in with two young sports who seemed to be
greatly interested in Mr.. Rawlings welfare.
After some time he was decoyed by one of his
new-found friends into a lumber-yard at the
corner of Thirteen and-a -a-half street and Ohio
avenue. Here he was knocked down and
robbed of his pocket book, containing $500.
The case was reported to police headquarters,
and yesterday Detectives McElfresh and Nc
Dewitt arrested William G. Nolan as the rob-
Der, and he was identified by Rawlings as the
man who had decoyed him into the lumber
yard and robbed him. Nolan admitted having
taken the pocket-book, bat denied that 1t con-
tanned $500. He is a young man who has
gained considerable notorety by numerous
pranks, and especially BY an effort to romanti-
cally shoot himself in front of his mother's
house, about six months ago, and now he has
fully identified himself as one Of the "crooked -

Excursion Down the River.

The Y. N. c. A. excursion last night was
voted By all who participated as a decided
social success. Despite the threatening aspect
of the weather all day a sufficient number
turned out to make it pay in every respect.

notably Mr.. Bickford's cornet-was highly
appreciated. Among the leading singers were
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Wilson, DR.. and Mrs.
Winters, Mr.. and Mrs. Shockey and Mr.. Lewis.
Solos, Duets and quartettes were rendered in
fine style, interspersed with the singing of pop
ular hymns and now and then a humorous
song by Mr.. Lewis. As the boat neared the
city on its return Mr.. Stewart announced that
in lieu of the evening prayer which was wont
to be held in the rooms he would ask Mr.. A.
s. Pratt, the venerable friend Of the associa-
tion, who was among the eIcursiouists, to
offer brief prayer. The occasion was emf
nently satisfactory In all respects.

An Extraordinary Game of Pool.

One of the most extraordinary games of
ffteen-ball pool on record was played Thurs
day night at Walters billiard rooms, before
quite large number of Washington's best
citizens. As the game was impromptu, a gen.
eral invitation was impossible to the numerous
friends of the players. The contestants were
Messrs. T. Irvie, G. Corny, S. Yates and D. F.
Frank, all brilliant wielders of the cue. The
game was called at $50 o'clock, with Mr..
Walters as umpire and Mr.. Will s. Holman e S
counter, and lasted until 12:45 o'clock, at
which time the game resulting in tie was de-
clared a draw, neither of the brilliant knights
having pocketed ball during the entire time.
The second game of the series will be played
Tuesday night next at the Coliseum" All
who wish to see fine exhibition of skill are
cordially invited
