JUNE PICTURES.
Our precious
springlng !

Amber dawns that flush pale light
Up the Gewy dark Of night,
Sunrlses whose earle t words
Arc quick twitters from walked BIRDS,
Gold and emerald everywhere
Simmer through the silvery air,
RaiubOwrd, the bright morning through,
From each grsss-blade globed with deWj
Insects, waking with tune
OF hot hours To c0me-tnaCs June.
Meadows where the sun streams up
From the hot glazed buttercup,
Where you haIr the dro Hslng hours
Inlled by loud bees In the flowers,
And the air Is odor, born
of the heaped white OF the thorn,
Where, the gras5's gadcs among,
GrasshOppeIs are shrlling song,
Where tho heart. with heaven atlne,
Pulses peace and praise-thars june
Brooks that glitter as they run,
Singers 10 the sultry sun,
Gurgling GOODNESS rs they pass,
Eyed by daisies sippd by Grass
Wider rush-attendad streams,
Brcadths OF smooth light-depths OF Dreams
Rivers roads for silence made
Throush the hush Of sun and shade,
Flashing hack the fire OF noon
OR STARTLED with night-tnats June.
Woods whose stlnesses yOu hear
Listening 10 the whistles clear
or hid blackbirds songs that shril
How till moons with giafness thrill,
Till such bliss the listening earth
Breathes. that ViOicts nave Dlrth,
That the windhower's tender cup
Through her shadows trembles up,
Coyerts. black with glOOms OF noon,
Or Observation-Disclosures juno
Gardens, through the sultry hours,
Rounds and squares OF cleaning flowers,
Beds and borders, where the rose,
To the glow of summer, CLOVIS,
Where the lily. yestal white,
slvers noOntide with moonlight,
Where tho long. hot terrace burns,
Fired with red geraniumed urns,
Where tue lime In golden noon
HUNS with summer-that Is June.
Evenings, where the golden light
Redly dies from wcstering night,
Where the crimson sunsets feel
PLrpliug shadows through them steal,
Where adown the deepening blue.
Star on star sparks, trembling through
And tho warm moon slowly slides
Through the cloud that vcils not hides
Her calm glory, cloudless soon
To our awed cyeS-that IL June.
Nights, not darkness, soft delights,
Glad half-gloOms o. shadOwy lights,
Rtar-eyed over OdOrOus hours
Rich with brcaths OF fruits, and flowcrs,
Warm with soft airs Of the day,
OF the dear dead hours, away,
Moon-mixe1 shade that fitting seems,
Not for sleep, but waking dreams.
Dreams at purple nights deep noon
Dreamed by Low ers-that is June.

From The london World.
AS feat of memory, NJ. de l}lowitz relates an
incident which occurred in 1873, before The Times had
special telegraphic wire. NJ. de B0wtz had been with
MIR Delanr to Versailles on an occasion when NJ. Theirs
made great speech and the correspondent was ac-
cOmpanyiug Mr. Delanc to the Northern Railway station
the same evening, Mr. Deane said: What pity we
can't have speech like that Ttenso In me Tines the
morning after its delivery" NJ. de BOwitz, who hal
simply listened attentvey to the speech, without any
intention of reporting it, took advantage OF this oppor
unity of showing his editor what he could do, saw Mr.
Deane the Calias express drove TO the telegraph
office in the Rue de Grenelle sat down at table and

POISONED By TOBACCO SMOKE.

From the Cincinnati News Journal, March 49,
The fact has Just leaked out that Mr.. W.
/. Mallory, who fell dead in Cincinnati
Northern railroad car on his way to his
home in Avoudale, Monday, was slowly
killed by inhalirg the nauseous fumes Of the
deadly cigarette and the villainous cigar.

given him any uneasiness, was as aggravated

into which men, women and children are
ali iammed together. Until IL few weeks
since two cars or one large car with i par

intended as Il smoker iorgentlemen. Under
this arrangement lovers Of the weed could
take il easy and smoke at their convenience.
When this car was taken Off there was great
objection, and many patrons OF the road
filed their protests. When Mr.. Mallory
boarded the train he was in robust health.
The car was crowded with men and women.
Many Of the men were smoking The
windows were all down, and the smoke
was so dense in the coach that 1t could
lie cut with knife. Mr.. Merriweather,
the lea merchant, was OIL the train, and
gives vivid description of the scene.
To N'cws Journal reporter who questioned
him he said "The atmosphere i'll the car

fair frail damsels waiting upon his con-
venience. and Investigated the matter with
great judicial promptitude. Pearl Sum
merield was a Jewel by name ii not by
nature, and gracefully paid a fine OF SIS
for the privilege Of having her liberty.
Nellie Smith, with charming naivette
also transferred sls to his honor, and is
now c~orrespondingly happier.
John Doe confdentially informed Judge
Fisher that he was just recovering from
the effects of too much alcoholic stimu-
lants, ami felt strong enough to pay IS
and the costs.
Martin B. Hicks and +. Grouse got S.

no money and went to jail. The officer
who hired an express wagon to convey one
to the Jail has lost a quarter by the opera

Glitch IN HIS GLORY.
His Elegant New Resiaurant Formally
Opened TO the Public.

A broad smile Illuminated the features
of Mr.. John Glitch as crowds of gen
tlemen and ladies crowded into his
brilliantly lighted restaurant last evening.
Crowds Of walters, arrayed in uniforms of
virgin purity, stood at their various tables
ready to make any explanations needed,
while Mr., William T. Fitch. with a neat
%button-hole bouquet, actedthe part Of gen
eral usher to perfection. The general APP
pointments of the new restaurant have
already been described, but the beautiful
effect of the costly o~rnamentation proved
a genuine surprise TO every visitor. In
the windows were displayed temuting
heaps of delicacies. All the tables were
ready set with a full service, while nearly
a cart load of fine silverware to
be used in the restaurant was dis
played in a heap. The immense
gas-heated apparatus for hastily cooking
ordinary orders attracted much attention.
The general and private apartments are
most elegantly fitted throughout, and are
furnished with all possible conveniences,
even to cleo. ric bells.
Every one Of the many visitors who in
spected the place last evening were i'm
pressed with its beauty. and they all
wished that its proprietor, who ALREADY
has a fine reputation as a cook, would
succeed in coming bushels of money u
of his new venture.
Nothing was for sale at the restaurant
last evening, the intention being to get
down TO business to-day. when everything
will be in full working order.
The cost of all the improvements made
by Mr.. Fitch and the many valuable fix
lures introduced will reach $1,000.

The l0:40 morning tram did not arrive
in this city until nearly 8 O'Clock last
night. The cause of its detention was
the burning of the great snow shed near
Aspen. a small tow in the vicinity of
Evanston. The fire caught this morning,
and burned for some time, causing con-
siderable damage. The snow shed was
over 1880 feet in length, and two. thirds
of it was entirely consumed.
The telegraph poles were burned for
quite a distance along the track. All COM
munication by telegraph was stopped for
a short time. as the wires were all down.
The trainmen who arrived here last
night could give little or no information
regarding the fire except that its origin
was unknown. The loss could not be as
c%ertained, but must be quite large, as the
snow shed was one Of the largest on the
Line.
