MISTLETOE.

To the cradle bough Of naked tree
Benumbed with ice and snow,
A Christmas dream brought suddenly
A birth Of n,istletoe.
The shepherd stars from their fleecy clouds
Strobe out on the night to see;
The Herod north wind clustered loud
To rend It from the tree.
But the old year took It for sign,
And blessed It in his heart;
"With prophecy Of peace divine,
Let now my soul depart"

fore the expiration Of his term Mr.. Davis
resigned the Presidency Of the Senate, and
Geo. F. Edmunds. Senator from Vermont,

Senatorial term not expiring until 1887.
This procedure was necessary in order that
the Presidency ofthe Senate should not be

expiration of his Senatorial term would
have left the country without legal sue.

was practically made Vice President Of the
United States, and will remain such until
the present Senate elects a successor.
tits now well.known in official circles
that Senator Edmunds does not wish to
continue in his present position as presiding
officer Of the Senate, 1t being his desire to
accompany his family to the B.rmudas for
the health Of his wife. The Republican
majority have therefore indicated disro

event seemed only to await the recovery Of
Senator Anthony from his late illness and
his appearance upon the floor Of the Senate.

Tom Ochiltree,

Talking the other day with Captain w.
H. Stevens and VIM. A. Moore, the latter
named gentleman told me new story Of
I" the red.hcaded ranger" Congressman
Tom Ochiltree, of Texas. "He and Geo.

YOU said Ochiltree, heartily shaking the
hand Of Townsend; VERY glad to see you,
indeed. When shalt we three liars meet
again.
a'Threer replied Townsend, there are
only two
".Pardon me- replied Ochiltree; you're
only one, III admit, but am the other
two"
Ochiltree Is man Of some ability, but he
prostitutes It to a desire to be sensational.
His great egotism and vanity were shown
early In life. Returning from college, the
story goes, he lounged about the Office Of
his father, in Austin, till Judge Ochiltree
thought he would put him to work. "Tom,''
said he, one day, "I'm going to leave town,
but before I 60 will take you into part.

joyed. He promised 10 be truly good and
useful member Of the Texas branch Of the
Ochiltree, and then babe his father tear
full adieu. Judge Ochiltree was gone but a
few days. Upon his return he saw In big
letters over his Office door the sign-"Thos.
Ochiltree and Father, Attorneys.at.Law."
Another story Of Ochiltree was told here
recently by Mr.. Armstrong, collector OF
customs at Denver. After Ochilsree had
run up $4,000 bill in two weeks at New
York hotel, the apprehensive clerk waited
on him and demanded payment. He found
Ochiltree smoking a dollar cigar, cham.
payne bottle in front Of him, his heels on a
,narble.top table. "Want money, chr"
said Ochiltree. "All right. See that dus.

take down that trunk" The clerk remov.
ed very small satchel from a hanger
"Now," continued Ochiltree, "cram tina,

"But can't do it." said the clerk.
"Can't," Ochiltree repeated, "you can do
that more easily than you can make $13s

don't understand the simplest mathemati.

Once he was approached by an imperti.
