A TinkIe of Bells.

The light of the moon on the white of the snow,
And the answering wrinkles along the street,
And our sleigh flashing by, IL the glamour and glow
OF the glorious nights of the long ago,
When the laugh of her lips rang clear and sweet
As the tinkles our horses shook out of the bells
Aud flung and tossed back
On our. glittering track
In a shower of tremulous murmuring swells-
Of the echoing. airy, melodious bells.
O the mirth of the bells!
And the worth of the bells!
Come tinklc again, in this dearth of the bells,
This laughter and love that l lack, yearning back,
For the far-away sound of the bells!
All! the bells, they were glad in that long ago.
And the tinkles they had, they have thrilled me so
| have said: 1t is they and her songs and face
Make summer for me in the wintriest place
And now-but sobbings and sad farewells,
As | peer in the night, through the sleeted pane,
Hearing IA clangor and wTangle of bells,
And never a tinkle again!
The snow is aswoon. and the moon dead white,
And the Frost is wild in the air tonight
Yet still will | linger and listen and pray
Till the sound of her voice shall come this way,
With a tinkle of bells,
And the lisp-like tread
Of the hooves of the sleigh,
And the murmurs and swells
Of the vows she said.
And .. | shall listen as madmen may.
But the tinkling bells ring down this way
I'LL again the grasp of my hand entwines
me tensioned loops of the quivering lines,
And again we ride in the wake Of the pride
And strength Of the coursers, side by side;
With our faces smitten again by the spray
q the froth of our steeds as we ganop away
In alright of the bells,
And the might of the bells,
And the infinite glee and delight of the bells,
As they tinkle and tinkle and tinkle till they
Are heard through a dawn where the mists are drawn,
And we canter and gallop and dash away
Sheer into the Judgment Day!

San Francisco Chronicle.

san FRANCISCO CnfOnicle.
Hitherto San Francisco has been comparative
ly free from anglo-maniacs, for, excepting an
occasional Eastern traveller who electrifies the
clerks and habitues of the Palace Hotel office by
asking what he shall do with the brawsses"
when he is DESTROYS of redeeming his baggage
from the transfer company, the Queens English
has not been inflicted upon the public ear. But
those good days are over. for far away in the
wilds of the Western addition the principal of a
primary school has undertaken to anglicise the
mode of speech of rising Americans under her
charge. A reporter of the Chronicle saw two
little girls returning from Suday-school yester-
day morning and was astonished to hear them
take leave of each other in the following man
ner: Hits 'awlf pawst ten, Attic, awnd | must
go 'ome. Me mother will be hangry. Good
bye" Don't forget to come hover to me 'ouse
this awfternoon, Hawnie, replied the other, and
''Who told you to say hawfternoonF" the re
porter asked of one of the little misses.
''The teacher, she answered. Hall the boys
and girls ave to do that"
"Since when!'
ooh, a long time now. Our teacher says that
hit is not proper to say afternoon
You don't say SO" said the astonished re
porter. "Does she make you use any other
wordsl'
"Oh, yes: she makes us say awnd," and the
little girl opened her jaws like a rock-cod's, to
give the proper pronunciation. "Awnd she says
dawg, too" She continued, ''awnd braves awnd
cawnt WIND pawk awnd mawn. Oh, hits begin
ming to rwain, . and she scampered off without
giving the reporter an opportunity to ask the
name of the school and its principal.

Mrs. Bun as a nIack-NIaiIer.

From John Bull ct son lie.
A French diplomatist of my acquaintance was
one day travelling alone with "a woman. who APP
peared to him to be "a lady in every respect. At
the end of about half an hour their eyes Glanced
to meet. The lady Immediately smiled. Such
AN irresistible smile! What bewitching eyes!
My friend smiled too. Nothing more. But he
paid for it.
Are we far from C;umon-street Station, do
YOU know said the charming lady.
'No, madam we shall be thele in five mini
utes.'
Every well. sir; if You do not hand me over
f2O this instant. l shall give you in charge at the
station forhaying insulted me"
My friend paid: lac was a wise man.
Such cases are very frequent.
know a gentleman Who dctests the smell Of
tobacco, but who invariably travels with the
smokers rather than run the risk of finding HIM
self alone with a woman.
One day he had just taken his seat in a smok-
ing compartment.
Up comes a lady to the door. Smoking car
iiage. madam cries he. seeming a lady in search
of game.
Oh! | don't mind"
''That may be, | do. though" And. at the risk
Of passing for Il bear, he held ON to the handle
of the door, and remained master Of the situa-
ton. Honor was safe; that was the main thing.

A Train Delayed by AnteIopes.

The west-bound train between Green river
and Granger, on the Union Pacific, recently en-
countered a flock of twelve hundred to fifteen
hundred antelopes. The snow was quite deep
and drifted in places, and the antelopes were
running on the roadbed, finding that the easiest
road to travel in. When they were first encoun-
tered many of them were killed, and the engi
neer, seeing that the train might be derailed un-
less it was slowed up, decreased the speed. The
antelopes kept a short distance ahead of the en-
CINE, and were strung along the road for Il quar-
ter of a mile. They would occasionally get some
distance from the engine, and then they would
stop, turn round and watch the headlight until
the engine was fairly upon them. They delayed
the train half or three-quarters of an hour.

WHY THEY PARTED.


ESmeralda.
Chicago Tribune.
George W. Simpson knew this. He knew that
Esmeralda W. Pixies love for him was not an
ephemeral fancy, but a strong. unwavering, you
can-chew-my-gum- while-I- am-reciting passion
that would gather intensity and force as tho
years went by, and that when the autumn Of
life had come would, like the ripened grain, be
even more beautiful and enduring than in the
days of its lusty youth. 1t was this knowledge
that made the task of parting forever from
Esmeralda such a hard one. But in spite of his
tight pants, George w. Simpson was a man in
whose nature there was Il strong element of
duty. and he felt that, no matter what present
sorrow might arise from such action, it was best
that the tie which bound them tOgether-the sol
emn, holy tie of Il plighted trOth-should be sun
dered. rather than that a greater grief, Il more
blighting misfortune, should f|allupon them later
in life. And SO when he had told Esmeralda-
whispered the words to her softly as they stood
there beneath the linden trees that soft, autumn
nal evening. the signing wind that waited subtle
aroma of corned beef from the next house kiss
ing the fair cheek of the girl and toying with the
mass of golden hair that sat upon her head like
"A crown-there had been in his voice a certain
something that told the girl more plainly than
could any words that behind the studied calm of
his demeanor, far back in the woodshed of his
soul, there was Il Secret-a dark, fatal fy-in-the-
c~ream-pitcher secret of which she knew nothing.
What is this terrible mystery that enshrouds
your actions, darlingl" asked the girl, looking up
to him in the dumb agony of an awful grief.
Even though we are to be separated forever, it
seems to me that have yet a right to know
what it is that has desolated our lives. Can you
not grant this, my last requestg'
No" he says. in IA voice that is hoarse with
agony, Il dare not tell you"
But l demand an answer to my question:"
she says imperiously.
He regards her IA moment in silence. and then,
Just as he turns to go. she clasps her arms and
looks up to him with a pitifui pleading in her
brown eyes.
For the sake of our dead love" she whispers,
'tell me-
Bending over the frail form, George whispers
in her ear one little word:
"Chilhlains.

Goodnight and Goodbye.


When the gold and red of the setting sun
Grows pale and fades at the close of day.
When the flooding splendor is over and done,
And night draws on and covers its way
We do not hope its return in vain,
For we know the morrow will come again.
This is goodnight.
When we part with a clasping hand at night
From the friend we love, we feel regret.
And the bright, warm heart takes with it the light
And joy of our own hearthstone; and yet,
This regret is not a hopeless pain,
For we know that the friend will co~e again
This is goodnight.
When we leave the shore that has known our birth,
When we turn our longing sight to fill
Our hearts with mem'ries of sorrow and mirth,
The throbs of expectation are still.
And night draws on, while we strain our eyes
For a long, last look in our paradise.
This is goodbye.
When a soul is called from the busy crowd,
To tread the paths of an untried way
In garments of light instead of the shroud,
And we look our last on the form of clay,
We know we have said our last adieu,
And the broken vows we cannot renew.
This is goodbye.
When we stand at the gate at eve with him
Who has filed our life with joy or pain,
When we watch the wanning light grow dim,
And know we shall never watch it again,
We say the words and hear the reply,
And we know the farewell is spoken for aye.
This is good night and goodbye.
Ida May Davis.

The low schoo-house stood in a green Wabash wood
Lookin' out ON long levels of corn like a sea-
A little log house, hard benches, and we,
Big b~arefooted boys. and rough uns, we stood
la line with the gals. and tried to get head
At spelin' each day when the lessons was said.
AS green corn in the milk, stood fast at the foot
Stood day after day, as if he'd been put
A soldier on guard there. did poor Bally Dean,
And stupid God made him so stupid [ doubt
But / guess God who made us knows what He's
about.
He'd a long way to walk; but he wouldn't once talk
OF that. nor the chores for his mother who lay
A shakin' at home. Still. day after day
He stood at the foot till the class gan to mock:
Then to master he plead, ''Oh. like to go head,
Now it wasn't so much, but the way it was said.
Then the war struck the land! Why that barefooted
band
It just nailed up that door; and they very next day,
With master for Cap'en, went marchin' away;
And Bally the butt of the whole Wabash band!
But he bore with it all, yet once firmly said,
when l get back home, I'm agoin up head!'
Oh. that sehoolhouse that stood in the wild Wabash
wood
The rank weeds were growing white ghosts through
The squirrel hulled nuts on the sill of the door.
And the gals stood in groups scrapin' lint where they
And we boys! How we sighed; how we sickened and
died
For the days that had been, for a place at their
side.
Then one fever-crazed and his better sense dazed
And dulled with heart sickness all duty forgot;
Deserted, was taken, condemned to be shot!
And Bally Dean guardin' his comrade half crazed,
Slow paced up and down while he slept where he
lay
In the tent waitin' death at the first flush of day.
And Bally Dean thought of the boy to be shot,
OF the fair girl he loved in the woods far away:
Of the true love that grew like a rcd rose of May;
And he stopped where he stood, and he thought and
he thought.
Then a sudden star fell, shootin' on overhead,
And he knew that his mother beckon'd on to the dead.
And he said; What have I! Though live, though 1
die.
Who shall care for me now? Then the dull, mufled
Struck his ear, and he knew that the master had
come
With the squad. And he passed in tho tent with a
sigh,
And the doomed lad crept forth, and the drowsy
squad led
With low-traiing guns to the march of the dead.
Then, with face turned away tow'rd a dim streak of
day,
And, his voice full of tears, the poor, bowed master
said,
As he fell on his knees and uncovered his head:
Come, boys, it is school-time; let us all pray"
And we prayed. And the lad by the coffin alone
Was fearless, was silent, was still as a stone.
In line, - master said, and he stood at the head;
But he couldn't speak now. So he drew out his
sword
And dropped the point low for the last fatal word.
Chen the rifles rang out, and a soldier fell dead
The master sprang forward. God help us" he said,
at is Bally, poor Bally, and he's gone up head!'
