Smoking I'm the Street Cars.


Your very timely, and, to my mind, most ju-
dicious comments In your paper to-day upon
"street car smoking" induces me to offer q
statement in regard to an incident which hap
peued to myself on the platform Of street car
a few months since. At about midnight on the
night referred to, on my way home from q
gentleman's supper party, with half finished
cigar in my hand, stepped ON the platform of
a car that would pass my residence. Looking into
thecar and seeing t,co men only occupyingit, said
as courteously as could, with YOUR permission
VIII lnlsh 10y Cigar, as it Is an exceptionally
fine one" In voice far from mild. the reply
came: mol" ut isagainst orders" Every well. !"
| said, 81 never knowingly disebey orders, and
threw my cigar into the street.
smoke good deal and am very fond of the
INDULGENCE, but l think smoking in street cars
should be, if permitted at all, in entirely excen.
tiona cases. and then when no one cOuId nossi-
tSy DE inconvenienced byit. The next day. some
what TO my amazement, while seated in a
crowded car on my way to market, I
found myself almost sufYocated nv tho
smoke of very bad smelling cigar which
was driven through the window on INV side of
the car from the front platform. said NOTHING
to any one, but bore the annoyance tor abouf
fourteen squares, trying all the time, however.
to satisfy myself that the conductor ,oos not the
same one who had refused the previous night to
allow me to finish my nice cigar on the rear
platform. still have my own convictions as to
the identity or non-identity of the conductor
Since that time have frequently seen men on
the platforms smoking while the cars were
crowded, and the ghost Of my nice Havana very
naturally appears TO my mental vision at such
times.
l think. with you, that there should not be
any smoking on platforms or inside street cars:
but if the managers think differently from THE
stan and myself, I trust that the conductors
may be instructed not to discriminate against
good cigars.

IFor THE EVENING STAR,
Golden BeIls!

Golden bells. golden beilsI
Bring the metal rich and pure,
While each mellow. deep tone swells,
Let every peal ring clear and sure.
Finest gold, without alloy,
Must tell this story, old, yet new
OF welded life, and welded joy
OF sunshine, yet some shadow, too.
Full fifty peals shall ring anew
The myst'ry of each rolling year.
God bless the Father, staunch and truei
Got bless the household Mother deari
Fifty, nftyl backward roll,
All the shadowy years tonight.
Heart with heart-soul answering soul,
And hand in hand, they gaind the height
Tonight, amid the euphony,
OF the ringing OF the bells,
Whispers, fair, fond memory
LCuier, as the music swells.
Har<i the echoes seem resoundfng
Through the by-ways OF the past
MANY deep-toned bells are Sounding
Varied notes come thick and fast
Far eff. among the northern hills,
Amid the ripping rivers play,
A Ginning comes, with chords and trlls,
That sing OF chIllhJOds sunny day.
The village church-the Pastor dear
There once again they seem 10 and,
A youthful and a loving pair,
To breathe their vows, hand claspd In hand.
Since then, along the upward way,
They've jOurney'd onward, year by year
Bearing lies burdens day by day.
Sharing earth's joys without fear.
Sometimes the joyous, pealing bell,
Has rung The song with glad acclaim,
The wOndrous, blissful news to tell
Buds, blosaoming on the parent stem!
In after years, they've seem'd to hear,
The bells or heaven gladly peal1ng.
The birth OF souls, To them most dear
For time, and heaven, securely scaling.
Again, the mournful, passing beIl"-
Has fallen coldly on the ear
Earths Saddest sound, the last FAREWELL
The parting kiSs-the silent tear.
So here tonight, at length they stand,
Upon tine hilltop, looking Der
The travePd path-the conquered land,
And UaUaTd, to the shining Shore."
God bless, We pray. the loving pair!
Col lead them gently down tn. hill!
Cod keep them In his tender care,
And bring them To The haven still,
God grant that they may stand together,
And listen to the heavenly bells,
Beyond the rolling OF the river
Where God the Father, lives and dwells!
God guide them safely through the tide,
And as they've Journey'd hand in hand,
So may they enter sile by side,
To stand within the Glory Landl

Margery Doano IN Boston Transcript
Here Is an incident to show tho ups and downs
of life: Last week Wagner and his children went
through here They rode in the kings saloon
car, they dined in the kings pavilion; indeed.
they travelled as only kings and queens do in
this land. The same day the Empress Eugene
passed through Munich on her way to Vienna
She came in an ordinary car, she dined In the
second-class eating-room of the station; beyond
idle curiosity she had no recognition. She
went to Vienna to close her negotiations for q
scsloss in Austria, in which she will Live here
after.
OF the king here there Is q new story. To
gain his sympathy and break into his reserve
has been the aim Of many women who have been
summoned to his presence; but 80 Ear ell in
vain. A well-known actress was ordered to sing
for him In the winter garden on the roof of the
palace while he sailed about on the little shall
low artificial lake in swan-shaped boat, a Ia
Lohengrin. Instead Of remaining hidden In q
grotto, where she might be heard and not SEEN
she caused herself to fall into the water where
she cried to be saved. King Louis calmly rang
q bell ana said to servant: take that woman
out Of the water" and that very day sent her
out Of the kingdom.
