Ropus Reformers,

A great many reformers, self.styled such,
are merely men with a maggot In the brain.
They have q sort OF mental kink, and that is
nearly all they do have. The world Is all
wrong, they think, but one OF the most re-.
markable wrongs in 1t is that they themselves
are not sufficiently appreciated, and are com.
PEELED TO live on thistles when they ought to
be living in clover. They arc very powerful
in their denunciations Of the Government, but
II the Government would only give them bit
OF a sinecure with n handsome salary they
would keep as still as though they had been
until they are properly taken care Of and then
II wrongs are discovered, why the people who
are foolish enough to discover them must be
the ones to take care OF them. They resemble
that friend of Mr. Emerson, OF whom Mr.. Rip.
ley said "He would hoo corn all Sunday II l
would let him, but oil Massachusetts couldpit
make him do 1t on Monday" There slsuavdst
deal of energetic reform which iassinfn1e ugli-
ness, and nothing better.s.assSS

Four candidates sat-such an anxious bandi
At a table whereon n big jack pot lay;
Each sighed as no looked at the cards In his
hand, ,.,
And wondered Just how It were best to play
For boomers may boom, but the voters give
law,
And the issue at last is all In the draw, -
With Jack pot on tho table.
One counted an oflce and spoils at command.
And ono on n book that was not yet done,
And one on a war record took his stand,
And elegant hopes of Ohio had onei
For there's plenty OF sand In candidates.
And he sometimes rorgets that it's all in the
With jack pot on tho table.
They Clipped, and they raised, and they BLUM
ed as they bet,
And tried all tho various tricks OF the game;
But no one had gathered tho JACK pot In yet,
same;
For cheek, as rule, IS moro potent than Jaw,
But the Issue Mt last Is all in the draw,
With Jack pot on tho table,
Adark little man at tho corner stepped In,
And ordered them sharply to come to
He laid down hand that was certain 10 win,
And sadly the candidates turned TO goi
For the sharp tooth OF grief at the glzzard VIII

When candidate loses his all on the draw,
And farewell TO the pot on the tablet

A Glimpse Into the Past.

When General Daniel L. Sickles was In
Washington short timo since an old friend OF
his observed him one day promenadlng slowly
around La Fayette square, gazing earnestly at
the old clubhouse, from the windows ofwhich
Philip Barton Key used to look, and then
across at the mansion which was once his own
residence and which possesses such fateful
memories for him. Almost In front OF tho
spot where tho tree stood at whose foot he
dealt tho death wound to Key he stopped, and
was evidently musing over tho events In which
lie bore so prominent part n full quarter Of n
century ago. The friend passed on without
waiting 10 DO recognized, appreciating that the
occasion was such that one should be left I'M
disturbed 10 his own thoughts.
