DON'T BE CONTENT TO RUST.
d. b. WILLIAMSON.

Come, rouse and shake yourself, my friend!
shake off the slucgard's dust;
Unfold your hands and wake your eyes;
Don't be content TO rust.
Away with Incidence, and rise
Above the british sloth,
And health and ease will come if thou
Be not to labor 10th.
Come out and show your better self,
Nor lag while Others run;
There's not an hour, or day, but hath
Something that may be done
Something, my friend, that you can do,
Ifbut to earn a crust,
And better that, than sit and NOPE,
And be content to rust.
The world won't help you if you fail
To give YOURSELF a lift;
And shuuned,a spurned, through life YOU
60, ,
Left in its cold to shift;
So up and leave the sIuggard' bench;
Shake off its Sloth and dust,
And find some honest work and be
No more content to rust.

THE KELLo6e-BRlGNoLI CONCERT.


Mr.. Max Bachert, who organized the Fan
ny Kellogg Brignoli company, has combi-
nation OF artists of which any manager may
well be proud. - individually and collective
ly the company is a strong one; indeed. a
better quartette, than Kellogg, Dickerson,
Brignoli and Gottschak is seldom brought
together. Miss Kellogg, especially. is devel-
oping into wonderful singer. and bids fair
to take position not inferior to that of her
namesake, Clara Louise. Her singing of the
''TTovatore" number was remarkable for its
power and brilliancy, and was given with
charming expression and finish. Brignoli is
still Brignoli the old-time energy and vigor
remain, and his singing eompels the enthu-
siastic applause of his audiences. His num-
bers last night were "M'Apparir and .'Love
Once Again. The baritone, Mr.. Colts
chalk, is power in the company, and a sing
er whom it is decided pleasure to hear.
Miss Dickerson is an excellent contralto, and
sang well in the numbers in which she ap-
peared. Mr.. Adamowski's violin playing
excited the audience TO genuine enthusiasm,
and he was obliged to respond to a persist
ent recall. Mr.. Close had, beside the diff
cult work of accompanying all the other art
lists, two piano solos, which were well given.
The concert closed with quartette which
was sung with much spirit. The concert
was decided success.-LopeH Courier.

A tender turkey roasted high,
On the eve Of good Thanksgiving
Says he to himself, al will not die
For other peoples living"
So he roasted so high in the chilly night
That he lost his grip and fell to the ground
And hog caught him thus in terrible
plight,
And gobbed him up as soon as found.

"Ah, me.' said his mother. whose years and
age
Were seyenty-fye; and her eyes were dim
'He might o. died ike a man, full or onions

R0cK PILE.

We learned from a gentleman just up from
Fort Reno that the military Of that place
have orders from department headquarters
to arrest Oklahoma Payne, if he makes his
appearance in the Indian Territory again,
attach ball and chain to his person, furnish
him with the necessary tools, and set him to
pounding rock. He also stated that a few
days ago news was received at the fort that
some boomers had arrived in Oklahoma and
that scout was sent out with party fndi-
ans with instructions to arrest and hand-cun
all tresspassers. The Indians were well
armed and made bold threats, taking with
them two-bushel sack full of handouts.
But their trip was in vain; they found moth
ing but Indians OF other tribes, hunting.

Hundreds of our readers will to-day enjoy

thanksgiving dinner, where, for few hours
at least, most of them will lay aside the busy
cares of life, and indulge their appetites,
feasting on turkey, sausage, mince pie, salads,
ETC., 10 the extent that tomorrow they will
be irritable aud have headache; and cold
yictuals, remnants of the preceding days
doings, cold stufiing, and sich, will lie around
the pantry and go begging Tor the next week,
while there are many worn and weary moth.
ers, with children, who would gladly accept
even the crumbs, we might say, that will fall
from some of these richly prepared dinners.
Happiness and social culture are the objects
usually sought after in these gatherings.
That being the case the EAGLE has this prop
osition TO make: that the inviter and the in
vited, before .partaking Of the thanksgiving
dinner, send out well-iIled basket of pro-
visions TO some one Of the poor and INDECENT
families that dwell IN our city. To you who
are not in the habit OF doing this, we will say
that you will enjoy your dinner great deal
better, and it will be an antidote for to-mor-
rows headache. Try it.

GARFIELD POST BALL.

18th Their object is to raise fund 10 be
used to aid destitute or sick and disabled
citizens who served in the army during the
war. The demands upon the Post are so
great that the fund set apart for that pur-
pose is inadequate. There is quite a num-
Der of worthy pensioners on their roll, who
from necessity have to be assisted. The
AMOUNTS allowed them are small, yet they
serve TO relieve their present wants. 1t is
hoped there will be liberal response ON the
part Of our citizens generally One of the
very interesting features of the evenings
entertainment will be a regular old-fashioned
campfire supper-hard tack, baked beans,
coffee, pork, Is. b. But few of the wives
and daughters Of old soldiers ever saw a gen.
uine army meal, so they will not only have
the opportunity of seeing, but the privilege
of sitting down with the vets and sharing a
meal with them.
