At THE " DOOR.

q the winter morning, early when only a few
And the shutters were up at the windows,
and the snow lay white in the streets,
As the wheels of travel and traffic were be-
ginning to whizz and whirr,
An the sunshine drove the shadows like
ghostsfrom their dark retreats,
From out the tenement houses, from cellars
so cold and damp,
Whitley on wall and floor,
Inc watchful sentinels stole away from the
49, waking camp,
And, shivering with cold and hunger, sp-
peared at the pawn-shop door.
There was one in her widows weeds who had
striven from day to day
To keep her children in comfort, with plenty
of food to eat,
not the money to pay,
And on, the disgrace and horror of being
turned into the street,
She looked about in her anguish for something
that she could spare
from her tenderly boarded treasures
scanty yet precious store
ana bearing away the jewel that proudly she
In the dusk of a winter morning she stood at
the pawn-shop door.
There were Others who gathered round her,
whose faces too we'll BETRAYED
The shrine at which they worshipped, the
vice that had bitten in
Through the fibre of all their being, till I'M
blushingly they displayed
The tokens of their enslavement, the taints
and traces of sin.
They are regular corners, by the demon of
drink accused,
The lazy and tattered "bummers," albeit of
breadth and Drawn,
Who are ar driven zen at early morning by the scourse
Ah!l little have they to hope for whose souls
are already in pawnl
But there outside of the group, with fingers
aching and red,
A little boy with a bundle slips into a vacant
place;
There are no shoes on his feet, not much of a
cap on his heal,
And the great big tears run over the shrunken
and careworn face.
He is hungry and cold and wretched; there is
no fire on the hearth,
Not a bit of bread in the cupboard, nor even
ascrap of meat;
And the little brothers and sisters are strangers
to joy and mirth,
When they're pinched by the cold Of winter
and haven't enough to eat.
ALL sad enough is the picture and little we
dream or know
OF the terrible storms encountered, the
anguish and sore distress
Of many we daily meet in our journeying to
and fro,
Whom we never have thought to pity, and
never have cared to bless,
cruel fate,
Like vessels shorn of their sails and urged to
arocky shore.
Bereft of their early hopes, and swept from
their high estate,
Pitiful wrecksl they stranded close to the
pawn-shop door.

her beauty, for her caprice, her volatile

varying and childish moods, from the
most extreme hilarity to tears and pout-

ODONNELL'S PEDIGREE,

LONDON, Sept. 19.-The Times, in trac-
ing the antecedent of O'Donnell, fluids that
be is As years of age, and native of
Meracluddy, county Donegal, Ireland. He
has been to America several times, served
ia the American war, lived for some time
in Philadelphia, and kept public house
on the Canadian border. He invested his
funds in silver mines and in Fenian bonds,
and lost his money. He returned to Ire
land last May and frequented the company
of Irish Americans in Londonderry. He
carried revolver, and was considered a
strong nationalist. but was opposed to the
Invincibles. He denounced Carey when
the latter turned informer, and de-
clared he would not shoot, but would
burn him by inches He went to the Cape
to seek work, because he considered Amer
lea played out He had never seen Carey
before taking passage, and had no idea the
informer was on board the steamer when
he took passage. The defense will proba-
bly, be that Carey tried to shoot the pris-
oner, who wrenched the revolver away and
used it to protect his own life. 1t is stated
that O'Donnel's brother, who is living in
Ireland, will endeavor to obtain the ser
vices of A. M. Sullivan, M. p, to conduct
the defense. Friends of O'Donnell ridi-
eule the idea that he went to the Cape for
the special purpose of killing Carey.

A SECOND TRIUMPH.

John McCuIlough's Superb Reception in
Virginius Last Evening.
If any argument were needed to demon
strate the substantial triumph achieved by
John Mccullough and his company in st.
Paul, it would be more than furnished
by the magnificent audience which EN-
phasized his second appearance in ''Vir-
ginius" at the Opera house last night.
The reception was little else than an
ovation, and his superb portrayal of the
Roman father met with even warmer
recognition, if possible. than on the occa-
sion of the presentation last Monday
night. The first act was especially
notable for the qualities shown
on the opening night, and
advertsd to at length in these columns.
The opening of the tragedy is as soft and
tender as lovers dream, the coy Virginia
comes with her secret to the gracious old
Roman, who is touched into sympathy by
the sweet confidence and tender passion
OF his daughter; yet he is
not 30 sure in committing
her happiness to Inilius, and the happy
finale Of the playful ruse to test the lovers
devotion is marked by some of the pref
test acting ever seen on the stage. There
is nothing IN the opening to indicate the
terrible catastrophe of the play;
no cloud in the clear sky to
indicate the storm-cloud which is soon to
burst with pitiless fury.

MARYLAND DEMOCRATS.

Quite in contrast With the Republican
conventions of New York and Massachu-
sets, was the Democratic state conven-
ton of Maryland, held on yesterday at
Baltimore. 1t was a harm onious body, a
stong ticket was nominated and ringing
platform adopted, which is the keynote
of victory, and fresh notice to the place
men and speilsmen and treasury leechss
that the days of Republican misrule are
numbered, and the national government
will be rescued from the control
of the party which has
maintained itself in power by the theft of
the presidential Office in one instance, and
its deliberate purchase, IN large part
with stolen money, in another. The mills
of the gods grind slow, but they grind e1-
ceeding fine. For the good time coming
the country is called upon to wait but
little longer.

NEW YORK REPUBLICANS.

The New York Republican convention
yesterday was full of bad blood and fierce
rivalries for machine domination, and as
a consequence weak ticket was nomi-

mockery and hollow show. strained
attempt was made to arraign tie Demo
cratic party, but in that effort so faithful
portrait was drawn of
Republican sins and short
comings that it utterly fails of its

year, torn and lacerated by internal feuds,

show an aggressive front is humiliatirg

Boston, Sept. 19.-The Republican
State convention was called to order at IL
O'Clock. Chairman Lodge OF the State,
central committee was chosen temporary
chairman, ana after prayer by Rev. Owen
2. Clifford, lie addressed the convention.
At the conclusion of the address the usual
commits and permanent officers were
appointed. &. ac!es r. Goldman was
chosen president, and on taking the chair
addressed the convention at considerable
length, his remarks being chiefly in refer
ence to the present government. He re-
viewed the Tewksbury affair and said:
"One man led this crusade against the
fair fame OF Massachusetts. A man con-
spicuous always for great audacity, for
ready wit and for valuable and copious
speech and of restless personal ambitjon:a
man of national notoriety, surely not of
national reputation who has often solicited
and sometimes obtained the votes Of the
people who never has been able to retain
them long. A Legislator identified with
congressional raids upon the treasury; a
politician Who has proposed that the peo-
pie Of the United States repudiate their
honest debts and so to make their great

general, whose most valuable services we're
as provost marshal and never as a leader
of men, ard whose successes were those of
the suttler and not of the strategist. His
references to Buffers political and military
record and national notoriety'' were
loudly applauded by the delegates. He
was given three cheers when he concluded.
After the transaction of some routine bust
ness, the convention took a recess until
2 O'Clock.
At the convention reassembled and Presi-
dent Goldman stated that OF 1909 delegates
elected all but two are present to day, and
every city and town in the commonwealth is
represented.
Senator Davis submitted the platform recon-
mended by the committee on resolutions, which
was unanimously adopted. 1t declares for

for protection and development of American
industry and enterprise, both at home and on

RUSSIA.

ST.. PETERSBURG, Sept. 19.-Narodrga
WaJa, the chief nihilist organ being Sc
crstly printed in this city, and of recent
publication reviews the work of Count
Tolstoi, minister of the interior, and say
the continuance of similar policy cannot
be tolerated. The days of Tolstoi, the
hangman, it declares, are numbered. An
account is given of excuses at Ekaatrin-
aslar, we're the anti Jewish riots recently
occurred, which is quite different from the
official version of the affair, and
in which it is stated two
hundred persons were killed
by the troops. The tone of Naranadaja
WaJa shows that the Nihilists are not
foreign to these excuses, but desire their
frequent repetition. Hetropaulavski pa
pers state that although many prisoners
had died. the prison was so crowded re-
Gently that fifty prisoners had to be re-
moved. Many of them were SO i'll they
were carried on stretchsrs. The
Nihilisi Ichiriajeff died there from bad
treatment, and q female Nihilistwas shot
dead attempting to escape.
