If WE KNEW.

If we knew ths woe and hesrtache
Waiting for US down the road,
If our lips could taste the WormWooo,
If our backs could feel the load.
Would we waste the day In wishing
For slime that ne'er can be;
Would we wait in such Impotence
For our ships to come from seat
II we knew the baby fingers
PIessed against the window pane,
Would be- cold and stiff Tomorrow
Never trouble US again;
Would the bright eyes of our darling
Catch the frown upon our brow,
Would tina print of rosy fingers
Vex us then as they do now?
All, these little ice-cold fingers,
How they point our memories back
To the hasty words and and actions
Strewn along our backward track
How the little hands remind US,
AS in snowy grace they lie,
Not to scatter thorns-but roaes
For our reaping by and by.
Strange we never prize the music
Till the sweet-voiced bird has flown;
Strange that we should slight the violets
Till the lovely flowers are gone.
Strange that summer skies and sunshine
Never seem one-half SO near,
As when winters snowy pinions
Shake their white down in the air.
Lips from which the seal Of silence
None but God can roll away,
Never blossomed in such beauty
As adorns the mouth to-day.
And sweet words that freight our memory
With their beautiful perfume,
Come to US in sweet accents
Through the portals of the tomb.
Let US gather up the sunbeams
Lying all around our path;
Let US keep the wheat and roses,
Casting out the therns and chat.
Let US find our sweetest comfort
In the blessings of to-day,
With patient hand removing
All the brisrs from our way.

San Gabriel Mission, Southern California.

In the plain, just under the edge of
the mountains, lies the old mission and
village church of San Gabriel. The
mission dates from 1861. TWAS founded,
like all the other missions of California,
by friars sent out from the college of
San Fernando, in the city of Mexico. L
recollect the ecclesiastical buildings Of
this college of San Fernando. They
stand yet on the principal street which
was the scene of Cortezs disastrous re-
treat from the city, and are marked, L
believe, with an inscription comemora-
ting the site of the famous Leap of AL
vardo. The buildings founded from this
picturesque source are thoroughly
worthy of it. The same massiveness,
the same taste for bright color. the
same rocco details, including the pecu-
liar battlement, which was kind Of
Spanish horn of dominion. At this
one six green old bronze-bolls hang in
rs many inches together. The fern-like
shadows of line of pepper-trees print
themselves in the sunshine against the
time-stained white wall No more than
the church now remains, the great ag-
ricultural establishments connected with
these missions having been swept away
years before the American occupation
by edict of the Mexican Government.
Some bits of broken aqueduct, and q
few orange trees above hundred years
old, in what was once the mission gar
den, are the only vestiges of former
prosperity. The interior of the church
contains few battered old religious
paintings, always of the worst type of
their kind. 1t is doubtful if the luxury
of good pictures was ever superadded
in these establishments to the excellent
architecture, for which there seems to
have been n natural instinct
The village is piquantly foreign. It's
single street Is composed entirely of
white adobe houses. One of them, with
a tumbling red-tiled roof is so full Of
holes that it looks as if it had been
shelled. All the signs are in Spanish.
Here is the Zapatero, or shoemaker,
and here the Panaderia, or bakery. The
south walls are hung with a drapery of
red peppers drying in the sun TO pre-
pare the favorite condiment. The pop
ulstion are humble class, who gain
their livelihood for the most part by
day labor on the surrounding estates.
They are not too poor, however. to re-
tain their taste for festivity still. On
the occasion Of some notable wedding
among them they will manage to mount
on horseback, and surrounding bridal
carriage driven postilion-fashion, return
from the ceremony at the old mission
whooping and firing pistols in tho air in
the most gallant and hilarious fashion.

Ailantus and Catalina.

Some railway men have concluded
that the ailantus and catalpa will prove
to- be the cheapest and most durable
wood for tie and bridge timbers. One
company, whose road extends chiefly
over prairie lands, is having large
plantation seeded for these trees in
equal proportions. Both the catalpa
and ailantus are readily propagated
from the seed, and bear seed pods
abundantly. Another comrany, whose
road enters Texas, is arranging to plant
several hundred acres OF these trees in
that State. Even the Iron Mountain
Company, that probably owns more
heavily timbered land than any other in
the country, has contracted for the cul-
tivation of a catalpa farm near ole of
its stations in Missouri. On this road
are catalpa ties that were laid nearly
fifteen years ago and are apparently as
sound as ever. IL is authenticated that
in Southern Ohio, where one species of
catalpa is indigenous, there are posts
and timbers of this wood that have been
in the ound full century and yet
show no signs of decay. Although the
ailantus is an importation from China,
still it and the catalpa seem to find in
soils OF Missouri, Arkansas and Texas
just whatt ey require to thrive upon

Where They All Are.

"Why not accept the place yourself,
Judge?" inquired Senator from Routt
county.
ooh, well - now" stammered the
Judge, blushing very deeply; "I-well
You know-ah-I-I am-yes-total-
ly unprepared for that sort of thing,
you know"
"Of course you are" said the Senator
from Routt county; "but you embody
all the qualifications demanded and I'm
going to announce you as candidate |"
"No, no, mol" cried the Judge catch
ing the Routt county Senator by the
coat tails. Don't do that, my dear sir,
don't do that But I'll tell you what
you can do. Come this way mo-
ment.
The Judge dragged the Senator into
the darkest corner of the lobby. There
was meaningful glitter in his eyes. his
bosom heaved with conflicting emotions
and his voice was strangely hoarse. He
stood up on his toes and whispered in
the Senator's ear:
"You can say am in tire hands Of
my friends. "-Dcnuer Tribune.

him, laughed and cried at the same
time over him. She called him her
boy, her Willie, her darling--every term
OF endearment ever heard she lavished
upon him. Bob. or Willie Thorndike,
as his name really was, behaved very
we'll. While it was impossible for him
to realize that he had founda new name
and mother, he yet showed a great
deal of affection. He was the first to
realize, however, that Sandy had left
them.
Mother" he said, "father must be
told that this makes no difference.
Come with me-"
Mrs. Barnston got up, and holding
her sons arm tightly, went with him
They found Sandy walking to and fro
outside the house.
Mother" said Will, "you must speak
to father. He has been true father to
me-"
At the sound Of the title he had 80
long been accustomed to, Sandy turned
towards them.
Father" continued Will, 81 have
found q mother, but l have not lost
YOU"
81 do not know what to say to you,
began Mrs. Barnston; "words would be
poor and weak. God bless you. Mr..
McGovern, and He will bless your for
what YOU have done. / cannot thank
Won. but / can pray to Him that be
will. Do not think that l wish to take
VIII away from you. You have been a
father to him, and it is right that he
should be your son. But he is my boy,
my darling"
"Wa'al, marm," said Sandy, as his
face softened into smile, as full OF
pleasantness as q May morning, grasp
ing, as he spoke, Wills hand, "thar amt
no reason, as i knows, why we can't both

as good as they make 'em; and reckon
we can range things so as to suit all

two an we'll have plenty of time to talk
it all out. l was afeared," continued
Sandy, after pause, cas- how l might
hev lost the boy long o your comm, but
sees that amt so, an bless God for
the Joy He has given you this day.
Let's all go into the house and talk it
over"
And so it was arranged. MIR. and
Mrs. Barnston and Edith stayed at the
ranch for three months. During that
time Wills mother had chance to tell
how she had been carried off by the In
dams and rescued by the United States
troops within week; how she had met
her then husband some eight years
afterwards and married him, and how
she had never ceased thinking about
her boy that had died, as she supposed,
in the desert. During the three months
Will discovered the fact that he was
very glad that Edith Hovee was not his
relation by blood. When the Barnstons
did leave, they did so two days after Mr.
and Mrs. William Thorndike had taken
the cars on their wedding tour. Sandy
gave VIII one-half the ranch, stocking
it for him, and the last time L saw Will
he told me he was going to run for
Congress. He was full of the pleasure
he expected to have in getting his
mother his wife and babies, and his
father, as he always called old Sandy,
together once more in his home at
Washington.-1gred Balch.
