TO THE MEMORY OF DEAR DEPARTED OH

TO THE MEMORY OF A DEAR DEPARTED ONE,
o Tim, Tim, mourn for thee,
groan in the depth of my agony;
My cup OF sorrow is up TO the brim,
Since have lost thee, dear, dear Tim.
Tim, my joy, my pet, my pride,
Why was you taken from my side;
Though black thy face, thy eyes were bright,
And I'll lived within their light.
Thy chubby fingers conld not grasp
The hand that lay within their clasp,
Thy lips had not yet learned to frame
The syllables of thy fathers name.
And as / stood beside the be6,
In which kind hands had laid thee cad,
bitter were the tears | she'd
And wild the thoughts within my head.
raised thee up, / held thee tight,
And out into the black Of night.
gazed my lips in bitterness,
Did utter words In deep distress.
Now thou art gone, no more pll see
Thy infant face which was to me,
A face ofjoy, a beam of light
But now-'tis Daught but night. black night.

Mr.. Samuel Stockton, of this city, has
recently materially improved his patent
corpse preserver, by the addition of an at
tachment which prevents any discolora-
ton of the face. This preserver is I'M
doubtedly the best in the market. 1t has
kept body in good condition for five
days, after the recovery of the body from
the water in which it had lain five or six
days. Several of the better preservers
now in use have infringed in their good
features on Stockton's patent and are
liable to prosecution. But this preserver
is still ahead of them ALL as is constantly
shown by practical tests. Mr.. Stockton
has valuable patent, which should meet
with wide sale.

The Trunk Mystery,

The Pittsburg trunk mystery is be-
ing slowly cleared up. The trunk has
been identified by the maker, who sold
it to two Italians April %, and the
police now claim to be on the direct
track of the murderer. Detective
Bonfeld, accompanied by Francesca
Curusso, the murdered mans brother,
have started for New York by way of
PittsEurg, it having been discovered
from a comparison of descriptions
given by the baggage-master in Chica-
go and Pittsburg, that the man who
checked the trunk at Chicago accom-
panied it to Pittsburg, and, when the
murder was discovered, started for
New York. 1t is possible, of course,
that he sailed from New York, but
much more likely that he is too penu-
rious to spend his ill gotten gain in
that way, and is hiding in the obscure
resorts of people of his nationality in
New York.
