In MEMORY

OfChar!es y. Carpenter, Jr. 20 to-day.
AS we touch the beads Of our birthday string,
And pass them along with smile,
While We look In the face OF q happy child,
AS he talks 0fan added mile,
Did we ever try to reach the end
or the mystic string OF days,
And failed to see with our human eyes,
Through the misty, shldowy haze?
We are better content to receive the 10y
With each bead as We PASS It by;
We trust for smother, we hope 1t will come
With o mile, not smothercd sigh.
TIL the boads have slipped by, one by one,
And the happy child's man,
While childish ,ys are laughed about
And the man begins to plan.
The birthday string is dropped again,
1t has counted some Joyous DAYS;
Wh!lo the look beyond, though dim 1t be
Seems bright with glitteripg rays,
Tint seem to light life, that shall be
In al Its ways complete.
With whisper OF praise and q voice CT love
Ard sound OF triumph sweet.
TIE months glide on In the sunshine,
Whilo we look for our birthday string;
But we let 1t fall with q horrible wall,
Though we ku ew 1t wGs . broken thing.
The beads we had counted and laid aside
are as bright end shining as then;
But our hearts ale sore as we try to say
10 cur fathers will Amen"
1t seems 20 hard when the world is bright,
AMI the gay go fitting by,
10 know that tho boy We 10 scd so we'll
Sleeps under n western SKY.
Yet we try TO say 10 our heart of hearts
That the Lord knew what was rest
When ! sad that in youth and Spiir g-tine
OF life,
twas timc for cur brother to rest.
But he sesms to come with happy face,
In tho quiet AMI hush OF sleep i;
v lille he seems to speak ID the old-time
voice,
And bids us no. to weep.
But there's void in our heart and vacant
place
At the table aud IN our home,
In the still nd calm OF the twilight gray,
We sou ctimcs feel he will como.
AZ manly end proud as we saw him 90,
With the sunst inc on his brow:
AS ne seit back IL kIss with the merry words
H. :" III soon BIO back, you KNOW
IL II but fancy, he cannot come,
But voice in the shadows dim,
AZ We long for touch If IL vanished hand.
S-eIs 10 whisper, we may 20 to him.

Chtcsso Socialists.

CHICAGO, April ga demonstra-
zion made by the AnArchist section OF
tho Socialists last night against the new
Board Of Trade Is characterized here as
one Of the most disgraceful episodes In
the history Of the city.
While the police prevented them
from approaching the new Board Of
Trade hall, which was their objective
point, they were permitted to make the
night hideous by their cries on some OF
tho down town thoroughfares.
4 Their actual numbers were not large,
and it is asserted that only for the IL
ceuse heretofore given them, they
would not have entered upon the excess
of last night.
As Mr.. and Mrs. L. P.Kadish were
being driven home last night, the band
of Socialists who were parading down
Clark street encountered the carriage
rs 1t crossed from Monroe street, and
some of the mob threw sticks and stones
against the carriage, breaking the win
dows and seriously injuring Mrs. Ka
|diSh.

Something like 200 people gathered at
the Front aud Unicn base ball grounds
on Wednesday afternoon to witness the
initial Qamo If the now Wilmington
club with th . Somerset, oi Philadelphit,
the contest to be- an exhibition game
Several things worked togeth.r against
the opening game. The visiting ciuo
had been for some tilae at the Work,
and were what might be called veteran /
players, compared with the home team, |
who had not even yet obtained their |
uniform suits, and appeared on the
grounds like recruits from Fallstat's
army.
They had had only two half days
practice on the grounds and besides the
cold weather and the slim audience had
rather a depressing effect.
At four O'Clock the clubs took their
places, with the Somerset at the bat.
The members were dressed In dark gray
flannel suits with maroon red belts and
red stockings. They are body OF fine,
large men, only one Of their number
being below the average size q d ne
Is alb Iut the best batter amongst them.
Tho Wilmington is composed OF wiry,
athletic uer, but T. ach smaller than the
Somerset. The arrangement OF the
clubs in the manner in which they play
was as follows:

For the first four innings OF the game

BILE spirit, and led the visitors two runs
but after that their bad luck commenc

the Wilmington made none. The gam'
ended with seven innings, the score be
