swell, I counted the barrels at the
depot myself, and there were only
$50, when there should have been an
wen thousand. Men were ready to
roll the barrels into the freight cars,
and.to make my number good took
ten barrels Of lard from stock ready
to ship 10 Baltimore. They mixed
in all right, and, of course, lexpect-
ed to pay for them. A whole day
went by before l saw the owner
These we're stirring times, you re-

short, and he cribbed ten barrels Of
beef to make COCOA his number Of
barrels, and hustled the shipment

ALICE CARET's SWEETEST POEM.

Among the beautiful pictures
mat hang on memnry's wall
Is one OF a dim old forest,
That seemeth the best of all;
Not for its gnarled oaks olden,
Dark with the Mistletoe;
Not for the violets golden
That sprinkle the vale below:
Not for the milk white lilies
That lean from the fragrant hedge:
Not for the vines on the upland,
Where the bright red berries rest:
Nor the pink, uort the pale, sweet cowslip.
lt seems TO me the best.
once had little brother
With eyes that were dark and deep
LII the lap of that nlden forest
He lieth in peace asleep.
Light ~ the down of the thistle,
Free as the winds that blow,
We rove'l there the beautiful summers
The summers of l,ng ago.
But his feet on the hills grew weary,
And one Of the Autumn days
made for lily little brother
A bed Of the yellow leaves.
Swcetly his pale arms folded
My neck in sweet embrace
AS the light of immortal beauty
Silently covered his face;
And when the arrows of sunset
Lodged in the tree-tops bright,
tie fell, in his saint-iike beauty,
-, Asleep by the gates Of light.
Therefore, of all the pictures
That hang on mem"ry's wall,
The one of the dim old forest
Seemeth the best of all.

-JUDGE Heller, of the Criminal
Court, decided that George Beck.
charged with desecrating the Sab.
bath in selling railroad excursion
tickets, was not guilty. Tdis decis-
ion is probably the FIRST that has
heen made directly on this charge in
the State. Judge Heller based his
decision upon the opinion of Judge
Biddle, in the Supreme Court, in the
cigar stand case. Judge Biddle held
that hotel keeper, licensed to sell
cigars, did not desecrate the Sabbath
in selling cigars on Sunday, because
the selling Of cigars was an incident
to mis- general business Of hotel keep
ing, and it was lawful to keep q ho-
tel open on Sunday. BY analogy,
Judge Heller held that, as railroad
companies were allowed to run on
Sunday, and as excursion trains
were in the way Of the regclar bnsi-
ness, it wasn't dissertation Of the
Sabbath to run them on Sunday. It
is possible that the case may be ap
peeled to the Supreme Court, which
body, should it reverse the decision
Judge Heller, would hare to reverse
Judge Blddle's interpretion of tho.
