With Might and Main.
BY NATHAN ID. uRNER

Strike, when You strike, with might and main
Pure force crisis carries,
Whilst wavering strokes. when parley's vain,
The feeblest bulwark parties.
In every scheme some moments rise
That brook not of evasion.
No MAJ nor boy ere clutched his prize
Who trified with occasion,
How oft we see worthy mind;
With noble perseverance,
Plan, plot and toll, to SCOTS resigned,
hero in appearance,
And yet, when all the irons glow,
And call for resolution;
Faint, trembling, at the final blow,
And fail In execution.
To build an arch, the Founder lays
Ger strong supports and braces.
With cautious touch through anxious days.
The GRANTEES in their places;
So nice that, when the tops begin
To meet, breath would bunder,
But when at last the keystone's in,
He knocks the props from under.
The General o. 'er map and chart,
To plan conflict, ranges
With anxious brooding, mind and heart,
And thought that often changes,
But, when the cannon's thunders lead
The battles crimson story,
He must rush In with fearless speed
To win the need of glory.
Use care aud pains, weigh, shift and pinch
In getting matters ready,
But solid strength put in to clinch
And keep the rivefs steady.
Then strike when strike you must, my boy,
With might and main forever,
The crashing final blows destroy
Tue blocks To planned endeavor.

The owner Of a pair OF bright eyes
says that the prettiest compliment
she ever received came from a child
Of four years. The little fellow, after
looking intently at her eyes a mo-
ment. inquired: Are your eyes new
ones?"

Equally ready to relinquish his loot
when there was no help for it was a
Chicago negro, caught by poultry
fancier in the act of carrying off some
OF his live stock, and challenged with

THE RAILROAD RIDE OF Il HUSBAND TO
SEE HIS DYING WIFE.
Kansas City Times,


One of the most remarkable trips on
record has Just been made on the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad, from Kan
sas City to the Rocky Mountains. A rich
gentleman named w. 8. Dunn arrived in
this city from the East on Thursday morn
ing, on his way to visit his sick wife at
Manitou Springs, Col. On his arrival here
he received o telegram stating that his wife
was at the point of death, and that she
could not live many hours. The husband,
who was o middle aged man, evidently q
merchant, seemed to be much affected by
the news, and at once made inquiries for o
special train. He offered large sum OF
money for special engine to run to Pueblo
ahead of the regular train, but could not
obtain one here. He took possession of the
telegraph wires between here and Topeka,
the headquarters of the road, and offered
$3.50 for o special locomotive to run at
special speed across the plains. His offer
was accepted and at 3 o'clock on Thursday
afternoon the devoted husband started from
Topeka on his break-neck errand of love
and duty. Away went the locomotive and
car, with its solitary and sorrowing psssen-
GER over the prairies of Ksw valley, down
into the valley of the Neosho at Emporla,
then off again over the high divide between
the Neosho and the Arkansas valley, which
was reached before night closed in. Then,
after taking water, the impatient husoand
and his tireless iron horse started up the
great Arkansas valley to the base of the
Rocky Mountains.
He reached Paeblo, Col, about " O'Clock
| on Friday morning, and then, onfy waltz
for a locomotive on the Denver ana Rio
Grande marrow gauge) to be got ready
started up to Manitou, distance of hftJ
miles. He reached Manitou at the base o.
Pixies Peak, in time to see his dying wife
and was we'll satisfied with the result OF hi'
fast trip. The fastest time made on the
| route was fifty miles per hour, the average
time about thirty-fve miles. 1t ID th'
fastest time ever made across the plain
from the Missouri river I'd the Rocky Noun
| taine.
