QUE JUVENILES.
MA Listte millionaire.


Twas one gold-blue day, in the mid-June weather,
Out of doors in the gay green grass we lay,
My own little boy and together
with my dreams, and he with his play.
" Don't cry dear mother, there is lots of money"
Close up to my ear his little voice said;
And he gave me kiss as sweet as honey,
From the two little lips of melting red
He pointed me off to the meadow splendor,
Where daisies and buttercups countless grew,
And said in tone SO arch and tender:
g You dear pretty mother, it's all for you'll
All the white my silver, dear mother,
The yellow my gold Wishl You needn't care,
You have one thing well as another,
pay it ALL" said the millionaire.
So kissed the lips that were sweet honey,
And 1 wished for all that could never lie;
He paid for the whole with his fowery money
And just as merry merry were we.
have had, little man, my share of pleasures,
Life has given much to have and to hold
But, o, you paid for my sweetest with treasures
OF daisy silver and buttercup gold
-Hide-A rake.

TO BE DEAD

If 1 should have void darkness in my eyes
While there were vioets in the sun to see:
If should fail 10 hear M u.1i,5's swee cries.
Or any birds voice our thresn DID, rec;
If should cease to answer love Or wit;
Blind, deaf, or dumb, how bitter each must be
Blind, deaf, or dumb will not think of it,
Yet the night comes when I shall be all three

from my last halting place I came upon
a mournful scene. The dead body of
another Russian soldier lay beside an
open grave by the roadside, while a
party of Bulgarians were saving their
funeral service.
Leaving this funeral group / socu
came upon an officer in command of the
escort of the immense trains had en-
countered on the roads. He said their
losses had been terrific before Plevna.
and that during the whole operations
around that place they had probably
lost 10000 men killed, wounded, sick
and prisoners. Gen. Schakoffski told
me that during the attack they could see
nothing but the tops of the Turkish
fezzes over their intrenchments. and
that the Moslems rested their rifles on
the parapets of the earthworks. and
poured ceaseless rain of bullets from
their breech- leaders which no troops in
the world could withstand. Several
tunes his men reached the intrenehments
and bayoneted some of the Turks inside
but they could not hold their footing.
and had to fall back, cut to pieces by
the internal fire, as the General charac-
terized it The Turks were as foolish in
not following up their success as the
Russians were in making the attack. The
latter fell back after their repulse, and
l found them TRANQUILITY awaiting events
thlrty-six hours after the battle.

MISCELLANY.


THE RAZOR STRoP MAN.--Among the street
characters Of New York, one Of the most IA
miliar is Smith, the razor strop man, who has
been for several years fixture on the Nassau
street side of the sub-treasury. Twenty years
ago Smith was much more widely known than
he is now. He then travelled through the
country, selling razor strops and small hard
ware, and became quite famous in his way.
Everybody knew him, and be made so much
money that he was enabled to open we'll
stocked store In New York, which he kept
going for several years. But the store was
not a success. Smith was finally obliged to
give it up, and report said at the time that his
failure was the result of too much spiritualism.
He had become believer $50 said report), and
instead of attending to his business, he gave
his time and his mind to the mediums. Az
all events, the store was shut, and Smith had
to start out once more as a peddler. But
time had told upon his strength, and after q
while he gave up the hard work of peddling,
and started the little street stand which he
still runs just above Wall street. He keeps
good stock OF pocket cutlery, which he takes
home with him, stand and all, every night,
and as every one in the neighborhood knows
him and has kindly feeling towards bin, he
gets on pretty we'll. With his gentlemanly
dress, smart manner, gold spectacles, and
white hair and whiskers (he must be man OF
sixty, at least), Smith Is one Of the most res
pectable looking street merchants to be found.
Transfer him to one of the handsome Offices
in the vicinity and be would pass for bank
or or lawyer, with home on Fifth avenue
quite as readily as some who have millions to
their names A light heart has carried him
well through life, and he is as hearty looking
to-day as when saw him nearly twenty years
ago, holding his nightly auction sale of odds
and ends in well stocked store on Grand
street.
