The Legend of the WILLOW.

One day golden-haired child, who lived
where no trees or flowers grew, was gazing
wistfully through the open gate of beauti-
full park, when the gardener CHANGED to throw
out an armful of dry cuttings. Among them
the little girl discovered one with tiny bud
just starting. "Perhaps it will grow,h she
whispered to herself, and, dreaming of wide,
cool boughs and fluttering leaves, she carried
it carefully home, and planted it in the dark.
some area. Day after day she watched and
tended it, and when by and by, another bud
started. she knew that the slip had taken
root Years passed and the lowly home gave
place to pleasant mansion, and the narrow
area widened into spacious garden, where
many green tree threw its shadow. But
for the golden-haired child now grown into
lovely maiden, the fairest and dearest of
them all was the one she had so tenderly
nourished No other tree, she thought, cast
such cool, soft shade in no other boughs
did the birds sing so sweetly.
But while the tree lived and hourished the
young girl dropped and faded Sweeter and
sadder grew the light in her blue eyes, till
by and by Gods angel touched them with a
dreamless sleep. Loving hands crowned the
white brow with myrtle, and under the
branches she had loved laid her tenderly to
rest.
But from that hour as if in sorrow for the
one that tended it, the stately tree began
dropping. Lower and lower bent the sad
branches, lower and lower until they caress-
ed the daisied mound that covered her form.
"See u said the young companions, 'the
tree weeps for her who loved it," And they
| called it the weeping willow.

Influence Of q Mothers PIety.

There was once an obscure and pious wo-
man living in the south of England. History
is silent respecting her ancestry, her place of
birth, and education She had an only son,
whom she made il her great business to train
in the nurture and admonition of the Lord
In the seventh year of his age, his mother
died, and few years later, the lad went to
sea, and engaged at length as sailor in the
African slave trade. He was soon an adept
in vice, and though amongst the youngest of
the crew, he was the most proficient in guilt
But his mothers instructions sent their
echoes TO him, and though at first he sought
louder and louder, until listening TO them
at last, he became fervent Christian,
a successful preacher, the author of books
which the church will never let die, and the
writer Of hymns the use OF which is cock.

This hayward son, whom his mother,
thought dead, addressed and reclaimed, was

the East Indies; and the "Star of the East,"
book published by Mr.. Buchanan, first call

Bnrmah.
The sailor, turned preacher, was also the
means ofdelivering the Rev. Thos. Scott from
means of ruinous error, and of introducing
him to the way, the truth, and the life. Mr.
Scott prepared the Commentary known by
his name, and which still continues its mis-.
sion of converting and sanctifying power.

To the Editor Of the Globe:
In answer to the communication of Messrs
Rogers Davis, which appeared in Saturday
mornings GLOBE, we wish to state few
facts. As the gentlemen states, the wages Of
a competent steamftter, able to take charge
and supervise job of steamftting, should
be So to So. 50 per day. They also state that
Neil Rodgers received $2.75 per day. Now
Mr.. Rodgers was the man who conducted and
supervised the work in nearly every contract
filled by the firm during the summer. From
this it would follow from their own statement
that they have either imposed an incompe-
tent man on their customers or have paid q
competent man less than just wages. They
state that Mike Downie was paid $3.50 per
day, which is untrue. Mr.. Downie has never
received more than 81 per day. Again, Mr..
Mathieson is stated to have received So per
day, the wages paid in their words to man
who is only competent Ito run pipe, etc.,
when shown just what to do Now Mr..
Mathieson hes been in their employ over two
years and has during the summer been given

wants Lillian to Pay se5. 5000.

CHICAGO, Dec. 19.-C. D. Hess. an ex-
operatic manager, has begun suit against
Lillian Russell the actress, and her husband
Edward Solomon, to recover S25. 600 for
alleged libel. He charges that after his
failure last fall the defendants sent a tele-
gram, and afterwards caused articles to be
published in the New York Mirror and st.
Louis Chronicle saying that the company
had been broken up ON account of attach
ments issued in various towns along the
road against Hess on old debts, and that
the current receipts of the company were
used up in paying them.
MY object in bringing this suit" said Mr..
hess, lis to put stop to their publishing
the assertion that the failure of their tour
under my management was due to the re-
ceipts being attached for my old debts, and
that so much money was diverted from the
legitimate purpose of carrying on the enter
prise in the payment of my old obligations
throughout the country that the company
was crippled in consequence. They have
caused this statement to be published upon
several occasions while there Is not word of
truth in it. The tour failed because the busi-
ness was bad from the start. The public
would not go to see Polly and Billee Taylor,
and there was not one week after the depart
ure of the company from Cleveland, where
the season began last September, that the re-
ceipts were sufficient to pay one-half the eX-
penSes. When signed the contract with Mr..
Palmer and his wife last summer they both
promised to go into repertoire of standard
and favorite operas, but very shortly after
the company began its tour Mr.. Solomon not1-
fed the business manager of the company, in
writing, that he would not produce. nor al
low his wife TO sing in any operas but his
own. That settled the fate Of the company

A MARITAL DILEMMA.
Two Women Having a Claim on the
Same Man Make Trouble.

CLEVELAND. o., Dec. ia peculiar
and dramatic scene was witnessed in the
probate court to-day. Two years ago
Franz x. Pfofinger left his home in Bavaria
to seek his fortune in America. He left
behind an affianced wife. Marie Epp, by
whom he had two children. He loved her.
and promised to send for her as soon as he
could provide a home. In New York
Franz met Jenny Theemoehlin, whom he
married. The pair came to Ohio and went
to live in Toledo. Two months ago, at
her solicitation. ne sent for Marie and his
two children. They came on the first
steamer. and in due time reached Toledo.
When Marie Epp learned of the marriage
she almost went wild. and Franz and his
wife were equally cast down. Franz, to
adjust matters, bought twenty acres of land
near Toledo and the whole family attempted
to dwell together in peace but to no avail.
They drifted to Cleveland to-day and asked
all the city officials high and low to help
them out OF the dilemma. They were re-
ferred from one officer to another until
they brought up in the probate court. Franz
offered the wronged woman the Toledo
farm. but she at first refused it, saving that
marriage alone could heal the hurt. Later
on she half agreed to accept it, The trio

A DAY OF QUIET.
Among the strikers on the Burling.
ton & Northern Road.

Among the Strikers Oh the Bur1iHg.
ton & Northern Road.
Yesterday passed very quietly at the
scene of the strike among the laborers en-
ploted by the Burlington & Northern.
Early in the morning Capt. Bresette was on
the grounds with large squad of police
and remained all day. but no attempt was
made to resume work and no hostile
demonstrations were made. Capt. Bresette
advised the contractor to resume work, but
the men who were ready for work were
afraid and declined. All day the police
stood around waiting for developments, and
the men formed groups here and there,
came and went and filed the shanty in
which good many of them bunked, dis
cussng the situation and waiting for a turn
in affairs. During the day about $50 men
received their time and were paid off. John
c. Cable, the contractor, says that none OF
the men who have taken their time will be
allowed to return to work. He gives as his
reason for the reduction in pay from s1.25
to 81 that llan does not do as much in
cold weather as in summer, hence
he cannot afford to pay as much.
Yesterday the wages were raised to $1.12L
per day and board to those boarding at the
camp. was reduced from S4 to S3 per week.
As only about fifty are accommodated there
the last item helps but few. The contractor
states that he was continually receiving ap-
plications for work, sometimes as often as
a hundred per day, and they were generally
willing to accept the dollar day and get
wofk. 1t was learned that the fight of
night before last began as personal QuaI-
rel which grew into a general fight. In
conversation the men expressed deter
mination to prevent the progress of the
work at the present wages, and thought
themselves masters Of the situation if they
could only hold together.
