A Lullaby.
BY W. X. CLIFFORD.


The flowers for sleep are signing.
The bird is in its nest,
The daylight is all hidden
With sunshine in the west.
And, bark! the cricket singing
His love song to the skies,
Where all the stars are waiting
To see you close your eyes.
They wish you all sweet slumber,
They wish you all good night;
They'll tell the sun to rouse you
When once again tits light.
And while you sleep, the roses
May think your cheeks so fair
That, in the early morning,
You'll find them resting there.

THE LATE SELEUCUS GARFIELDE.
Ex~COngrcssman and Professional
Gamblcr-A Chcckered Career.

Ten years ago Seleucls Garfieldc left Com
gress and became a professional gambler +;
last night he died in little room over d
cigar shop. The story of Gariields life is
that of man who surrendered absolutely 10
the temptations of Washington. He was
born sixty-one years ago IN Vermont, went
to Kentucky when he.was boy, was gradu-
ated from Augusta college in that State, and
began his active life as a lawyer. Whcn he
was thirty years old he was u member of the
Kentucky legislature and year later he
was commissioned TO codfy the laws of the
State, In 1860 he was receiver of public
moneys for Washington Territory, aud in
1867, alter serving three years a. surveyor
general lac came to Congress as delegate. lie
was here four years and when his Congress
ional career was over lie was moral wreck.
lie had lost his ambition and was as diss ,lutc
II gamoler as lived in thh District of Column
ba Cards has come to be the passion of his
life.
1t is said that he left Kentucky and wan.
dcred off into Washington Territory, because
he saw his doom If he remained among the
genial poker players Of his adopted State.
lie fought against what he feared would
Ncco'nc ms rulluS pdsslOn even TO the cX-
tent OF giving up what promised to be an
exec puonally bright future, but his sur
roundlngs in Washington final ovefcame him
completely. His fellow congressman ruined
Him and he lived for the rest of his days on
the vices of public men. No life in Wash.
ington was lower than his. The men and
women who were his companions were OF
the very lowest stratum. For years the man
who had once promised to be one of the
| cleverest public men of Kentucky had not q
single Intimate associate who did not belong
TO the dangerous clement Of society. lie was
always, however, II leader among the people
with whom he lived. His companions treated
him with respectful Difference. because, as
one of them put it, he had the "call on the
boys in learning" and he had been actually
a member of Congress. Moreover, he was
still Il lawyer, and he was looked to for
advice in the troubles with the police.
Garfield died alone, except that the womar
whom he married year and half ago state
with him till the end. lie had no friend
and he left behind him only the record of ,
man whom vice had dragged from eoot
public position down to be gambler and a.
outlaw,

NOT RUM, nuT NIrRo.GLYcEnINE.
The sad Experience Ofa Maine Sherin
Who Went TO Make n Seiznro ana
Didust no n.


Liquor is not the only article which the
Legislators of Maine have resolved to keep
outside the boundary lines of the State. They
have mortal dread at Augusta of dynamite
plots and other Nhilistc methods of procc.
durc, which has led them TO prohibit the sale
or keeping OF all such dangerous explosives
us ntro-glycerinc and gun cotton. There is
n certain quarry which ueed not be definitely
located, where they have always seen III to
use nitro. gy cerinc cartridges for blasting
purposes. Since the prohibitory laws have
been in operation the explosives have been
brought to the company securely packed in
boxes marked candles" This little subtcr-
fuge worked so successfully tina, some of the
employees at the quarry adopted the same me
thod Of smuggling liquor over the lines. This
happy expedient worked vcryl well Tor a
time, and then somebody let the cat out OF
the bag, and the story came TO the ears OF
certain sheriff. The story came, but un-
fortunately for him the details were not eX-
actly correct. lie was informed upon relia-
bic authority that the quarrying company
was engaged in smuggling liquor into
the State in candle boxes. lie resolved
forthwith to put stop to it, In pursuance
of this resolution, lie walked into the com.

sheriff.

"Well don't hit the box till I've got ont of

pale.
80, come now,' said the sheriff, cts no
use; the little game won't work. You
might us well quiet down and keep cool. I'll
take the box out on the ledge, if you say so.
1t don't make any odds to me. But I'm not
going to be frightened out of my duty, you

The sheriff went out on the ledge and the
clerk disappeared around the corner. The
sheriff cooly went to work with hammer
and chisel and knocked the cover off the box
and otherwise dsarrlngcd the packing.
Presently out rolled several little blue cart
ridges The sheriff dropped his tools. lie
was seen to rise and make wild dash for

could carry him. He forgot all about the

The Self-NIade Girl.
from the New York Evening post.l


The American girl long ago perceived that
while for domestic purposes mothers were in
valuable, for social purposes they might be
OF little use. In other countries it is an uu-
common thing for girl to go into society
whose mother has not been through the same
career before her. But this is an every. day
occurrence with us. New York is full of
mothers who never would have had glimpse
of society had it not been for the enterprise
and dash u their children. Socially, such
children must be sei,made in the sense that
they must pick up their social standards and
IDEAS not ut home, from their parents, but
at school, on the avenue, at Dclmonico's
aud other public places. Their hum
bic mothers can do no more in positive So
cial way for them, than his father can do for
the self made man. In making their career
there reigns an absolute equality among girls
like that among men under the constitution.
An ambitious industrious, long-headed girl
may, without any family, have much great
er success than u girl whose ancestors have
! lived two whole generations in the same
house, and who can even tell her grandmolh-
cl's maiden name. These facts explain in a
measure the popularity of the Delmonco
bals-an institution unknown In other coun-
tres-wherc the relation of parent and child
is not thrown in girls teeth, and the chap.
eroningis done apparently by contract. They
meet the cN ing want Of the sclf-made girl
society without mother.

PHILADELPHIA, April 2i.-Thc owners of
the steamer "Tropic" made statement this
afternoon to show that the firm had no
knowledge that the vessel carried contrabaud
goods; that Charles Rogers, one of the clerks
of the firm who had charge of the bills of
ladng, states that a man calling himself
II. Nandostcr called upon him on
March 18th and asked permission to ship
some packages Of furniture by the "Tropic."
He gave permission and the boxes arrived in
good season and were seat on board Mean
time, however, the vessel had cleared in bal

dtion TO his cargo left word tina. due notice
of the fact should re given at the custom

warned beforehand that tic Tropic would
bring out something for them.

drove to Pattsburgh on business, and on bis
return, while passing through Palm street, u
man asked him for ride. Mr., Comstock
allowed him to get into the wagon and they
went on about Il mile, when the man said to
Mr.. Comslock, "You didn't get the right

to take out his money. But Mr.. Comstocl;
said his change was all right, and they drove
on little further, when the villain suddenly

THE REMOVAL or PROF. PETER

Some Divergent Opinions.

1T the Commissioner were smaller man,
this last performance would be sci down as
work of petty spite. AS it is it will be
counted a sorry cxhib ition of Civil Service
Reform. If the Agricultural Department is
ever to accomplish anything fo- agriculture,
it will be through men of original scientific
capacity and thorough scientific training and
habits. The country can better afford to
lose the fluent oratory of DIR. Loring than
the efficient labors of such man as DR..
ColIier.-N. y. Tribune.
There is a small breeze over the displacc-
ment of Peter Collier, chemist of the Agri-
cultural Department and the appointment of
Prof. Riley to the place. From what can be
learned ii is II case of refractory conduct on
the part Of the chemist 1t is understood
that for eighteen months he has chosen so
far to emphasize his difference with the
commissioner as TO refuse to speak to him,
and it became intolcrable The original
point OF departure was sorghum. Mr. Collier
had the lie Due theory about it, and he
somehow got the Academy of Science on his
side. Perhaps, at its meeting here it will
again take up the matter. 1t is known that
