The Day That Is Coming

Then man shall work and bethnk him, and
rejoice in the deeds Of his hand,
Nor yet come home In the even too faint and
weary to stand.
Men in that time a'coming shall work and
have no fear,
For to-morrows lack OF earning ana the nun
ger-wolf a near.
o strange new wonderful justice! But for
whom shall we gather the gain?
For ourselves and for each of our fellows,
and no hand shall labor In vain.
Then all mino and all thine shall be ours, and
no more shall any man crave,
For riches that serve for nothing but TO fet-
ter friend for slave.
And what wealth then shall be left us when
none shall gather gold
To buy his friend in the market, and pinch
and pine the soldI
Nay, what save the lovely city, and the little
houses on the bill,
And the wastes and the woodland beauty, and
the happy fields we till.
And the homes Of ancient Stories the tombs
of the mighty dead;
And the wise men seeking out marvels, ana
the poets teeming head.
And the painters hand of wonder; ana the
marvellous fddle-bow,
And the banded chors of music-all those
that do and know.
For all these shall be ours and all mems, nor
shall any lack share
OF the toll and the gain Of living in the days
when the world grows lair.
William Morris.

Ned Stokes.

Il. s. Stokes, the assassin, may be
seen on Broadway every afternoon be-
tween drinks. At liquoring times he
is usually to be found before his own
bar, raising his elbow at somebody
elses expense. This argues that
Stokes keeps private bottle, or that
he has degree Of courage that is not
usually possessed by men who shoot in
the dark, as he shot poor, big-hearted
Jim Fisk. Stokes runs the bar-room OF
the Hoffman house, and he has stocked
it with pictures of naked women at
great cost. There is more money in
the pictures than there is in the liquor;
which is one way of saying the pictures
are good and the whisky is bad. Stokes
employs the prize-fghter, Billy Ed
wards, as his peeler and general
chucker out Edwards is gentleman
ly looking young fellow, and he never
laid in ambush to kill an unarmed
man. Stokes is white-haired before
his time. He has rather young look
ing face, and he carries himself as
though he owned the earth and stars,
and held mortgage on most of the
asteroids. He is always around with
rapid men and chain-lightning women,
who press his blood-stained palm be-
cause he has got money and notoriety.
There is something infinitely fitting to
Stokes in the calling Of rum-seler. But
do not believe that the pugilists,
panderers, burglars, disgraced police
men, and indiscriminate blackguards,
who keep most of the drinking shops
in New York, feel fattered in finding
themselves cheek-by-jowl with Edward
Stokes. All his fancy pictures, all his
drinks at other peoples expense. all
his chuckers-out, all his bad whisky,
and all his loose friends, cannot wipe
out the infamy of the murder he did
that day on the dark stairway of the
Grand Central hotel. wonder if such
men ever dream. -New York Letter.

A Bucking Bronoho.

Much has been said and written
about the bucking broncho, but the
half has not been told. The bucking
broncho is plant which grows wild on
the Laramie plains, and blossoms at any
and all times of the year. The man
who never saw one of these kaleido-
scopic panoramas has our sympathy;
and the tenderioot who thought he
knew all about horses, and who PLAYED
second fiddle to good, healthy broncho
through one twenty-eigh t-second round,
also has our sympathy, for that matter,
and not only the sympathy but the
services of good surgeon. The ''old-
tiper' mounts the colicky animal as
2t&6nkh 1t was a stone fence, and calmly
139Z contentedly maintains his seal
while the miniature earthquake Is
erupting beneath him. 1t looks easy,
and you can't help thinking that it Is
easy. 1t is a mistake, however, tn
suppose that the uninitiated man can
ride sthe bounding broncho the first
ti2e3be tries il, no matter how good a
h0rseman he may be. 1t can only be
acquired, like back teeth, in time. -

CHICAGO, March ll.-The annual meeting
Of the stockholders of the Chicago & Grand
Trunk railroad was held here this afternoon
The report of the directors showed the first
half years business affected by low rates
but the second half was tolerably
profitable, the average of work inp
expenses being 50 per cent, which
will be considerably reduced and the road
put in better shape. During this year
81 10000 will be expended in improve
mcnts. The old board of directors was re-
elected. At subsequent meeting of the
directors the following officers were chosen.
Joseph Hickson, president; A. j. Sergeant,
yice.president; G. Perry, secretary.
A charge of embe2zling $500 In money
and goods has been preferred against w. O.
Greer by the Tenny clock company,
OF Pittsheld, Massachusetts, OF which
Greer was agent. Greer says he accepted
the company's draft in advance OF sales,
and took lien on their goods in his hands
rs security, and that there is but a small
sum between them either way, and th /
the action is brought in malice because
he wouldn't break his contract and let the
company put up the prices on clocks,
on which IL has monopoly.
