MISCELLANEOUS.
THE BROWN DOG.

Jip was a large and clumsy dog; no lived mile
from town
on some ones farm; his feet wero tan, the
rest of his coat was brown;
His eyes were patient and tender eyes, with
glints In their depths OF gold
There be- few that know the wondrous gems a
brown dogs brain may hold;
His whole life long was dumb request, q
ycarning ana pleading cry,
For love and petting that never were his until
just rs he came TO dc.
The neighbours dog was a collie fine, and pct
ted from morn till night;
Her eyes were brown with n dash or black;
her coat was black aud white;
And many pat on the black dogs head was
meant for her masters gold;
But that was n thought by far too deep FOR tho
brown dogs brain TO hold.
Jip used TO gricVe, when they petted her, with
n moaning, desolatc cry
They always petted the black one most when
the other dog was by.
He used TO sleep on bed of straw, and live on
She had bed that was soft ana warm, and
tcnderest, gentlest care.
lie used to answer tnunt, or cum, with long
drawn quivering sigh;
While she had so many carcsscs that they
passed unnoticed by:
And everywhere IL was Just the same; the
butchers, gracious or grim,
Brought dainty morsels of meat for her, but
never bone for him.
Think you that deep in his doggish brain he
ever had thoughts like ours
OF Lands Beyond, where the buds of love
bloom out into perfect flowers;
Where hearts that ever go hungcrlng here
shall be unto fullnes fed,
And feet that stumble DER stony ways shall
over smooth paths be led?
We claim that love is a deafness thing, II goes
with us where we go.
Do we dare say no such dreams may come to
the lives that are just below
And some one once, i'm the public road, as he
went from his work at night,
Leaned kindly down to the brown dogs head,
and smiled ut the sudden light
That lcaped to the eyes that were raised TO his,
In pleasant and glad surprises;
And something stirred in his heart of hearts
when he looked in the brown dogs eyes.
And there next day, by an old gray stone, Jip
waited to meet his friend,
And every day IL was just the same until the
summers end.
And autumn came with its cruel storms, It's
winds that were sharp us pain,
Its frosty nights and its languid days, It's
dashes of piercing rain.
And they missed Jip from his bed of straw;
he mourns, they said, for his friend
For the friendly man had gone away VII IN
the summer reached its end.
And Jip was found III the bitter rain by the
side of the old gray stone,
As cold and dead, his brown eyes dim. He
had died as he lived-alone.

Keeping Their Ends Up.

One of the most singular traits of our
common humanity is the fact that no

citizen of n particular locality may be
to his ncighbors while at home, he no
sooner becomes o traveller than his local
pride sticks out like the peg on q hat
rack, and ut minutes notice.
The other morning while the east
bound overland was stopping at Coun-
Gil Bluffs, man suddenly climbed into
one of the Pullman cars, and exclaimed
in an anxious voice:

"All right said the gentleman from

said the Senator, "to protect my committee, which
had right to do" He said that frequently the
committee has to ask Information in relation to
measures pending before 1t from the Commission
ers, and cases arise where harm might be done by
making public the information OF the Commission
ers before the legislation is disposed of. He had
known OF several instances In which the committee
were embarrassed by the premature publication OF
the commissioners answers The Senator said he
did not write his letter to cricise the Commission
ers, but simply to call their attention to fact and
make request. 1t only had reference to legsla-
tiOn before his committee, and could not afford any
reason for withholding information upon any other
subjects. AS to other matters before the Commits
s1oners he had nothing to say.
