A WIFE.

often her touch, soft and trembling,
Hy" HWse sent quick thrill to my heart!
,,a.s ms nften her brown eyes assembling
iUu iUsre caused me in anguish to start!
m forget her I've tried. but in vain;
a;nce met her she's haunted my brain;
And I scarce can believe,
Though the rumor's so rife,
That my last years acquaintance
Is this year Wife
no aisputed with rivals unnumbered
The honor of holding her fan;
,rtro1,gt1 the waltZeS I've aimlessly numbered
When she danced with some other man.
rve ouarreled with my ink -blotted leaf
I'VE snarled that her notes were too brief
But how foolish and vain
Seems that small, silly strife
When think that she now
Bears the title of s'wifei'
rve given her baskets of flowers:
rye carried her hooks by the score; g+zs
I'VE read her the poets sweet lore.
mt a truce to such SenSeleSS reviews;
10 what use do sit here and muse?
She has taken the veil.
She is dead to that life,
She's maiden no more,
But woman-a wife.
T1l never seek pleasure without her,
Earth light would seem dreary and cold
like shadow I'll hover about her,
Then her form in my arms I'll enfold.
Though seeing her close to my side,
No being shall threaten or chide.
For the woman sing
Is my treasure for life;
She's my sweetheart. my lover,
My darling. my ,ufe.

LOCKED IN A. ROOM.
Russell Sage Tells q Good Story on Hi
Friend Cyrus w. Field.

Friend Cyrus w. Field.
A funny thing happened while we
were at the Parker Houses in. Boston
recently. Mr.. Field got locked into his
room and could not get out. His PER-,
formance was very funny, but it illus
trates his intense energy and restless
ness. You see, we had been up till
aftertwelve o'clock fixing some papers.
think it was one O'clock before we
went to our rooms. We. e.had two rooms,
that opened into small private hall,
from which there was asdoor into the
main hall. just as we were going up
the reporters all came after US. would
not stop to talk to therreporters. II
never let them interview me, but Field
stopped to talk with them. 1t was
about 4:30 the next morning when j.
heard him in his room, | knew, right
away what was up, He had gotten
up early to get the first copy OF
the paper to see what they said
about things. Pretty soon heard
him go out, in tho small hall. 1t.
was not long after that. till he
was just raving. made out fromwhat

the lock and could not open the door,
He went back to his room and tried to
ring the bell to communicate with the
office, but they had just put in new
. tangled call bell and he did not know
how to work it, He tried it three or.
four times and then went back to the
door, where he stood and called
Porter" and '.Hall boy. and climbed.
up and looked over the transom. +
saw was not to get any more sleep,
so went outlwhere he was. Well, do.
you know that man from 4:30 until
eight O'Clock kept up an nineessant callsa
ing, mingled with attempts to, make
the bell ring: pounding on the. door,
and other noises to attract the katten-'
ton of some one to release US. Finally,
about 7,30 a man in the next room
called out to know what wasthe matter.
and on finding out rang his; bell and 50.
brought up a bell boy. 1t was after
eight o'clock when we awerebreleased, !
because they had to send. for the lock-
smith, who had to take the lock of

ought not to tell it on Cyrus, but really
it was too good a joke to keep.-Chi-

When a merchant takes an article
of goods worth four dollars and marks
it at seven dollars and fifty cents, he
wants to be understood as selling out
regardless OF cost. 1t is the purchaser
who must regard cost in such cases. --

American Locomotives Of 1885.

During the year 1885 there were fewer
locomotives built in the United States
and Canada than in any year since 1880.
Seven of the leading builders sold GIG loco
motives during the year, and it is a liberal
estimate to credit the builders who de-
cline to let their production he known
and the various railroad shops with 200
or more locomotives. This would bring
the full list to about 800. OF the engines
built SO were for export, leaving about III
to supply the home demand. Two years
ago the seven builders that turned out 5l6
locomotives this year built 1886 engines,
and the trade was beginning to grow de-
pressed then. But that year 282 locOmO-
