THE FLOWN BIRD.
JArAyEsE SONG

The maple leaves are whirled away
The depths of the great pines are stir d
Night settles on the sullen day,
Asin it, nest the mountain bird.
Nv wandering feet 90 up and down,
And back and forth from town 70 town,
Through the lone woods and by the sea,
To find the bird that fled from me.
! folow'd, and follow yet;
! have forgotten to forget.
Ny heart goes back, but 60 on,
Through summer heat and winter snow
Poor heart we are no longer one;
We are divided by our Woe
Go to tire nest built, and call
She may be Hiding after all
The empty nest, if that remains
And leave me in the long, long rains
My sleeves with tears are always wet;
] have forgotten to forget
Men know MY story but not me
For such fidelity they say
Exists not-such a man as hc
Exists not in the world to-day
If his light bird has flown the nest,
She is no worse than all the rest;
Constant they are nOt-Only good
To bill and coo, and hatch the brood
He has but one thing 10 regret
lie has forgotten to forget.
Al day see the ravens fly,
hear the sea-birds scream all night;
The moon goes up and down the sky,
And the sun come up on ghostly light.
Leaves whirl white flakes about me blow
Are they spring blossoms or the snow?
only my hair Goodbye my heart,
The time las come fer us to part
Be still you will be happy yet,
For death remembers TO forget.

THE WRECK OF THE ATLANTIC.

The death of Thomas y. GOOld at
Portland, Me-. n few days ago, recalls
the wreck of Of the steamer Atlantic,
in Long Island Sound, i'm 1855. when
fifty passengers persisted. Mr.: GooI'i
was express messenger on the Inflated
ship. and had with him a va'iSe con-
tanning j.0,1 in cash and some other
valuable Packages. When he saw
that wrrri; was inevitable, he packed
the ,ali-r with nunbcr of blankets
in - barrel. and when the vessel struck
the ir,rr,.l went overheard. Mr.. t;"id
followed 10, AMI both reached shore
safely. Having secured the treasure,
MIR tiaoid set abnut assisting his fellow
passengers, and succeeded in saving
twenty lives. In token Of his services
he was presented with a gold medal
by the Humane society. and a valu-
able gold watch by Adams Express

Two of the most powerful pOtentates
OH the face Of the earth, the president
Ofthe Uuited States and the emperor
of Germany, live i'm very ordinary res
licences. The white house looks better
than the emperor's palace, but the lat
ter, which was built originally by some
rich Berliner rs u private residence.
and then taken for his own by some Of
the economical dynasty Of HOhenZol-
lerns, may he the most comfortable.
There seems to be but little doubt
but that the white house is incOn-
venient and expensive, and perhaps
unhealthy, family residence. and Mrs.
Gariield's illness may furnish the &C.
casion for its abandonment n q home.
The expansion of the business Of the
executive demands more and more
room for clerical offices, which might
take the present room devoted to the
family, while the state rooms could
still I've used for gala occasions. The
location of a new private residence OF
the president, near enough to admit Of
covered connection TO the old white
house, as suggested by Senator Morrill,,
seems to l,e a feasible solution Of the
problem. There would he no sense In
duplicating the white house architect
uraily, however, and whether the site
is healthy enough for residence any
way, is open 10 question. When the
new residence is built, ii ought To be

kAlLocH AMONG THE BRETHREN.
How He Was Recriscd ut the Baptist Con
veution al indianapolis.

INDIANAPoLIs, MAY oj-in the
Baptist convention to-day Il great sen.
saiion WAS eats. Il last evening by the
arrival of Mayor kallorli. of Fan Fran
cisco. He gam. u,iannnirc,rl. and if
a boiiii,shcll lia'i suddenly exploded.
il woii!i scarcely have startled til
brethren uric. ! saw him sitting uii
the north side of the house listening NJ
tentivciy tO one of the Telugu mission.
aries. l:ut do not believe his heart
was thrObbing Ia any alarming extent
for the ps'or heatlien. Now and then
he looked Ia see IL he was recognized,
and while doing so caught hes eye
and gave him friendly nod. He was
evidently pleased. and shortly after
ward i'm the lobby kindly allowed me
To interview him n little. Quite -
crowd collected, however, aud g;ized
upon the preacher Mayor as il he were
"a strange animal escaped from men,
agerie. Later in the evening, and
while enjoying cigar in his room ut
the Bate. house, he told me why he
came, al needed "A little recreation"
he said. "And thought I would run
over To Salt Lake. Then. having gone
so far, l concluded to 20 To Chicago.
Remembering that tee baptist ami
versaries were being held ut Indiai,al,-
oils, I thought I would just drop in ON
the brethren" Then he told me all
about the split in the California lSap-
tist state convention. Several church,
es had seeded from the body. he said,
because they did not like him. and
they had set up for themselves under
the style of "The General Baptist Con-
vention of CalifOrnia." "ISut they are
a shabby LOT, :" he said, land their min
listers are of but little account. All the
good men, such as a. J. Frost, Win
field Scott, etc, are with me" but
do you expect to ask the HOME Mis-
sion society to recognize your convcn-
ton and ignore the Others" ] asked.
He thought he should, and Hould pro-
duce arguments To show that his side
was entitled to recognition.
But Dr. Kalloch did not carry out
his programme. Some judiciGsis breth-
rem informed him that there was u
strong sentiment against him, and
that IL he attempted Ia speak his cause
there would be trouble.
Now, lie il said Ia the credit Of May
or KalloclI, he il no coward, whatever
else he may he, and the prospect Of u
row did not frigl,ten him, but believ-
ing that discretion was the better part
Of valor, he concluded not Ia disturb
the harmony ofthe convention by pre-
senting his cause. Quite late In the
evening he had an interview with Dr.
Morehouse, corresponding secretary Of
the Home Mission society, and laid
before him ms grievances. He agreed
to go to New York and lay the ease he
fore the executive board, and abide by
their decision. II may be well to state
that if the KallOch convention Is rec
Ognizcd by the Home Mission society
then all the missionaries who are APP
pointed and the pastors aided must be
recommended and Endorsed by that
It il case that will bring
trouble yet, but then Kallsch does not
care. Trouble Is his normal condition.
The doctor, or mayor, was not seen to-
day, and il il rumOred that he has left |
the city.

Desperate Struggle with Thieves.
A MAN FATALLY STABBED IN THE STREETS o.
NEW YORK

MAN FATALLY STABBED IN THE STREETS o.
NEW YORK.
Daniel Shea. aged ~ of Mulberry street. New
York city. was assaulted by three thieves ycster-
day at his own threshold and almost cut TO
pieces with dagger. 1t appears that the thieves
had broken into Shea's room for the purpose of
robbery. Mrs. Shea who was the only one
there. made an outcry. which WAS heard by neigh
bors Word was conveyed to Shea who was not
far away. and he started foi the house. At
the street door he met the thiel cs and he seized
the first thief. who was the biggest fellow.
The thief. with an oath. attempted to shake
him off but failing drew long knife and
plunged il into Sheas body. His two COM
panans tugged at the victim. endeayoring
to free the villain from his grasp. but he held
cries of pain as the knife was plunged again
and again into his body by the ruffian. At the
sixth blow the dagger was buried in his side to
the hit. Shea sank exhausted on the sidewalk
put so determined was his grasp that the muir
derer as he shook off his half insensible burden
ana He'd left sleeve of his blue flannel shirt
IN MS victims hands. The three thieves fed
together. but soon separated. the man with the
knife running alone up Mulberry street When
pursued by large crowd and the police ne was
soon captured. The surgeon dressed Shea's
wounds. which were six in number each deep
and dangerous. and the mans chances for life
are few. He was taken to the hospital The
desperate gave his name as James A. Wells
aged %. plumber. He was committed to
await the result of Shea's injuries. His two ac-
completes escaped
