SHADOW-LAND.

That is the land where baby dwclls:
All things are shadows to his blue eyes,
Houses and trees and howers and shells
And men ana women and butterflies.
The moon Is a shadowy. yellow thing,
Which he reaches to grasp with his fingers
small,
And the birds are shadows which hit and sing,
Mid shadow-ncsts on the vine-ciad wall.
All, all alike are the large and the less;
Alike to baby are near and far:
And his cries demand with an equal stress
The rose on the tree and the far-hung star.
One only thing is real and nigh,
The touch OF the mother close embrace,
The mothers breast, with its sweet supply.
And the mother kiss on his soft, soft fuce.
These baby trusts. and baby knows
They never fail him or disappear:
And he pillows his cheek, like n budding rose,
Content and safe in the known and near.
The shadows may come, and the shadows may
go,
And dance and shift. and meet and part,
But one sure thing does the baby know,
And he clings content to his mothers heart

great, bstray their party.

The Kings County, New York, Peniten-

Two Hundred Women and Girls out Of
Employment.

New York, Jan. 26-The shoe shop of
Kings county penitentiary, Brooklyn, took
fire to-day in the loft. When the flames
were discovered the prisoners were ordered
to quit work aud fall into line. Even while
the machinery was in full operation, the
engineer in the lower part of the building
was ignorant cf the fire above. The prison
era had been at work about two hours and
were promptly marched back to the prison.
Many were ignorant, if any, of the fire in
the building. The shoe shop is isolated
about five hundred feet north Of
it, but is surrounded by high stone walls.
S"me short term prisoners, who simply had
themselves sent up for the purpose of pass
ing winter, we're detailed with the keepers
in extinguishing the fire. The alarm had
been sent out in the meantime. The flames
spread SO rapidly that the keepers found
their efforts to check them useless, and
turned their attention to the saving of the
made up stock, which they threw out of the
window. The. Bay state shoe and leather
company leased the prison labor,
they are therefore the owners of all stock
fixtures and machinery. The loes falls on
them. The fire department hurried to the
scene, also the police reserves of the neigh.

prisoners were overjoyed, especially the

GREAT BRITAIN.
THE IRIsH PEOPLE.

London Jan. 26.-John Bright in his
speech at Birmingham Saturday, suggested
that the parliament appoint a committee to
60 to Dnblin with power to sell the farms
of landlords to ten ants who are willing to
buy them, and to advance three-fourths of
the purchase money therefor; the principal
and interest to be repaid in IS years. Such
measures Bright said he believed would
meet with and safety the desires of the
Irish people. The commission is to assist
tenants to purchase wherever the landlord
was willing to sell. Bright recommends
compulsory sales only where land is owned
BY London companies or guilds, as is the
case with large tracts near Londonderry.
If his plan. we're adopted, self interest or
public opinion would soon compel lndivid-
