AT HOME.

At Home we keep our treasures, the precious ones
Of life;
Father, Mother Brother. Sister, Children, Hns-
band, Wife;
AT Home we lay foundations for coming good or ILL.,
And start out the journey mp liie's uneven hill,
Al Home
enshrine
The affairs and the tables where our olive branches
Irvine;
At Home we ask and answer the questionings of
tate,
And seek to find the narrow path up to the gate
that's straight,
At Home
AT Home We shun the broader way To gates that
open wide.
And hold the path of rectitude when opening paths
divide:
At Home we trace the chart Of Time with mingled
hopes and fears,
Find pain and pleasure, sun and storm mid treas
Ured smiles and tears,
At Home
At Home where loved ones gather, the purest joys
we know,
While holding closely in embrace our own. for
veal OF woe
At Home we drink Of sorrows cup. when falls af
nictlOns tear.
And greetings and farewells said by those we
hold most dear,
at Home.
At Home we tire and wander, but though we roam
afar,
We keep theirange and reckoning of our magnetic
star
At Home, the dearest spot earth, where deftly
and with zest
We weave Hfe's web to lay it down aud seek eter
nal rest
At Home.

The Fatal Rink and Legislation About 1t.

The recent six days skating rink
contest at the Madison square garden,
New York, has been followed by the
death of two of the participants. The
cOrOner's jury in the case of young
Cohen of Brooklyn, have very sensibly
recommended that the Legislature pass
law "prOhibiting owners and mauag-
ers of Kinks from allowing any match
or exhibition which will keep the CON
testants on the floor of the rink any

The New York senate has already

Smoke light colOred cigars, they are
milder; never smoke on an empty
stomach do not smoke the whole Of
the cigar-the nicotine or poisonous oil
of tobacco concentrates in the "stump' !;
do not smoke more than three or four
cigars a day; lastly, after smoking,
cleanse the teeth. These hints seem
good, but we have never seen IL really
good reason for smoking at all.

A Scared "Stage Baby. .

Joe Jefferson tells a good story OF
Edwin Forrest. The great tragedian
was playing an engagement in Gin
cinnati, and it was decided. to put on
'Pizarro,' but no child could be found
to personate Rolla's little boy. The
manager and the property man were
at their wits end. 1t was impossible
to have the boy personated by dunn
my, for he was required to walk, em-
brace his father and mother, and per-
form other actions which to.a dummy
would have been physical impossibili-
ties. At last, in an evil Eour, the
property man was struck by what he
regarded as a happy thought At o
one-horse museum q few squares off
the list of curiosities included mid
dle-aged dwarf who, despite his small
stature, was gifted with large head
and very old face a. well as lsingu-
larly gruf voice. 1
The property man, after considerar
BILE negotiation, succeeded in renting
his midget from the museum manager
for one night only, to personals
Rolla's infant son. The dwarf was
not present at rehearsal, and the char
acter of the infant which he was to
carry on was carefully concealed from
Forrest, who beheld him for the first
time as he picked him up in the first
entrance to rush with him across the
bridge. and whose feelings at that mo-
ment, like the difficult passage in nov
els, may bo more easily imagined than
described. Grasped the terrified
dwarf in his brawny arms Forrest,
never very gentle in any ofhis stage
business, rushed like whirlWind be-
fore the audience, shouting at the top
of his powerful voice, 'Rolla passes
freely 7 and handling the SON of his
adoption rather more roughly than
usual.
When about half way across the
bridge the poor midget could endure
it no longer, and thrusting his head
out from old Metamora's arm, and
looking up into his face said in deep
bass voice, so completely out Of keep
ing with his stature and his supposed
juvenility, that if lamb had roared it
could scarcely have been more surpris-

John and the Lawyer.


Among the men of the revolution,
no one was more respected for his
honesty and good sense than Roger
Sherman, of Connecticut. Courts and
juries deferred to him, and from all
parts of the State clients sought his
advice. One morning a farmer, who
was far from quickwitted, dropped in
to see him. When his turn came, Mr..
Sherman greeted him cordially, and
said:
We'll, John, what can ] do for you
this morning p
why, lawyer was the answer, L
happened to be in town, and thought
I'd call and get an opinion
State your case, sir ; what's the
matter p

one of your opinions. They are said
to be valuable
Mr.. Sherman saw into the character
of his visitor, and writing few words
on slip of paper, handed it to him,
and charged seventy-fve cents for the
advice. John, proud of his success,
hurried home to his wife to boast of it.
He found her in discussion with the
hired man about field of oats which
had been cut the day before. He was
anxious to do some other work, while
she was advising him to get in the
oats. She was full of energy, and
much more capable than was her hus-
band.
well, john she said, what shall
we do about the oats p
Read the lawyers opinion, said he,
and produced his treasure. 1T cost
me seventy-fve cents

morrow what can be done to-day
Enough said,' cried John; them

A heavy rain which came that night
would have injured the oats badly, if
they had been left out in the field.
John always gave MFR. Sherman the
credit ofsaving his oats, and held him
in his highest esteem as aman ofwon

Western Union Wires Ruled Out of the
sChicagO Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, April 30.-The war between
the Chicago Board Of Trade and the
Western Union telegraph company broke
out a fresh this morning. SIX months ago
the board excluded from the floor of the
exchange all reporters but the official
ones of tine board. The Western Union
company. however, procured an iDjunc-
ton to restrain the committee on quota
tions from refusing them quotations, and
this injunction still holds. The board, on
its. part, expressed its willingness to al
low the Western Union to
have the quotations provided
it would cease giving them to bucket
shops. The telegraph company claimed
that it was endeavoring to remove its
'tickers from these places as rapidly as
possible but was prevented in several IN
stances by iniunctiOns. Upon taking pos
session of the new hall this morning the
managers of the Board of Trade declined
to allow the Western Union company to
put in its wires. AS result there is no
ticker service at all to-day and brokers'
offices in this.city, bucket shops and open
boards of trade alike have no quotations
The telegraph company appears to have
been taken completely by surprise, as
tiekers had been placed in all the new
offices and the warning came only after
business had been entered upon. The
outcome of the controversy cannot at
present befOreseen.

Anderson, of the. Western and Atlantic;
Ar. Harrahan and Theodore Welsh, OF
the Louisville and Nashville, and Major
Il. T. Green, of the Queen and Crescent.
Mr. Fleming stated that the meeting

melon crop Of the present year and TO
satisfy shippers.
Mr.. Halnes SAID that last year there

mated that the average this year would be
about 10 per cent. increase, and he felt
assured that the number OF cars would be
over 800. Last year the movement COM
menced on June Is Owing to the back

mad proved that shippers were satisfied
with box cars with Slated doors for short
distances.
MIR. Greene said that he was author
lied to state TO the meeting that his line

ducing the time from Chattanooga to Gin

have them on hand to furnish transporta-
ton to shippers.
