Standing wistful 10 the street,

Glide your child In gentle accents,
Do not in your anger speak
You must SOW IN youthful boboms
Seeds Of tender mercies; then
Plants will grow and bear good frIftagt
When tho errlng boys are men.
Have you never seen u grandsire,
With his eyes sglow with Joy,
Bring TO mind some act Of X induess-
Something said TO him boyf
OF relate some slight or GOODNESS,
With brow all ciouded, whom
He said they were too thoue htless
To remember boys made men.

To the life Of every boy;
For each ohild needs tender interes.

And not seek for comfort elsewhere,
And remember, boys make men.

A southern Socialist.

Hon. John r. Beasley, few years
ago the Greenback candidate for Gov
ernor of Tennessee, is developing into
first-class socialist. In recent letter
he declared that the Federal Govern
ment has become curse to the people,
and must be overthrown by force il
necessary. He wants the law of in
heritance abolished, as well as the
private ownership of land, and he still
adheres to the greenback idea of an
irredeemable paper currency.

The Angel and the Brute.
Washington Critic.

She was young woman in Washing
ton for the season, and was very fond of
narrating her conquests and speaking of
her powers over men.
He was bachelor with heart of stone
and cheek of cast-iron.
They were talking of love and matri-
mony and cognate subjects.
"I've been engaged six wesks, Mr.. NJ"
she said, with refreshing candor in view
of the fact that the announcement had
appeared in the society news the next
day after the proposal.
"Ahy" he said, with rosebud smile
wreathed around an Interrogation point.
How charming"
Delightful, Mr.. X.," she continued,
radiantly. "He was an old friend of our
family, and he was so persistent. How
long do you think | kept the poor, dear
fellow waiting for his answer" and she
giggled a real swell giggle.
"Um-um," he cogitated, as If calculat-
ing an equation of time between sun
dial and Waterbury watch. "Um-well,
| should say minute and half; posi-
bly, two minutes"
There was an abrupt termination to
the conversation, and the brute was left
alone in the alcove where they had been
talking.

II used to think that Gus Simpson was
a real nice young man, but | just hate
him now said one young lady to an.
other.
"Why, what has he doneY"
He's treated me shamefully; that's
what"
"In what way?"
"Why, the other evening, nj n party
said to him, Let's eat philopena, and
if you say yes or no to any of my ques-
tons I'll owe you a box of candy and if
| say yes or no you1l have to give me a
box"
Then whatH"
"After the party he took me home and
all the way there he talked just as sweet
as could be about love in cottage and
men should not live alone and all that.
And when we got To the front gate he
said.
Fannie, have waited for this OPP
portunity a long time; will you marry
meY
whispered yes in low voice and
and
Here her sobs choked her voice
And what did he do them" inquired
her listener eagerly.
He just hollored 'philopenaN with
all his might. That's what he did" and
she wept afresh and would not be com
forted.

A. T. Stewards Body.
New York World.

W. A. Croffut, editor of the Sunday
Post, tells to-day the following story of
the return of the stolen remains of the
late A. 4. Stewart. He says he had the
the story from mem Der of the Hilton
family at dinner party. He says; "Itwas
a couple of years anterior TO that think
my informant said, that the bones we're
finally ransomed. Judge Hilton persis-
tently refused to consent to it, and at last
when Mrs. Stewart declared herself unable
any longer to carry the burden of the
CHASTITY thought that the remains of her
husband were being carried around the
country by gang of thieves, she defed
her lawyers scruples and concluded nego-
tiations.
"Mrs Stewart gave $4,000 instead of
$4,000 at first demanded. The bargain
was made through lawyer who seemed
to have no other briefs, and who probably
got good fraction of the 'swag' The
ghouls insisted that the money should be
delivered To them on a lonely hill in
Westchester County at the dead of night.
Thither, in accordance with their direc-
tions n relative of Mrs Stewart iourneyed
alone in wagon, which he drove himself.
At spot in the country road which had
driver was suddenly halted by a masked
horseman. This mysterious messenger
led him through a by-lane to the hilltop,
where, after certain precautions to insure
their safety, they received the $4,000,
examined it, and then dragged bag of
bones from another Luggy near by and
surrendered it TO the keeping of the soil
tary traveller. Before they disappeared
down one side of the hill they commanded
him, on peril of his life, TO turn about and
descend the other slope. He did as he was
hidden and got to New York before morn
ing.
The next night the bones were com
mited to tho vault under the great cath
edral Mt Garden City, which had already
been connected by secret wire with n
chime of bells sure to ring and alarm the
town if it was disturbed. So now the mortal
remains of the great merchant. millionaire
and those of his patient enduring, frugal,
and atlectionate wife of sixty years rest
side by side

Kelley and Mccormick.
o. 49,

The following queer story about the
Jersey Battery appears as special
from New YorE:
Kelley and Mccormick, the famous bat
terry of the Chicago club, are residents of
Peterson, N. j., whom not playing ball
Mccormick is in partnership with David
Treado an old baseball player, 1t has
been given out that both men have refus.
cd to sign with the Chicago Club. The
reason given for the refusal of Kelley to
sign is that he contemplates going into
the horse business with brother.
kelley's friends laugh at the statement.
Is 1t one of "Mik's gagsY'
1t is well understood in Peterson by the
friends of both parties that they felt sore
ly hurt at the action of Manager Spalding
in fining them 1915 each. II is claimed
by kelley's friends that he need not play
ball next season, and that he can get a
salary of $4,000 doing nothing. Two
clubs have a strong desire to weaken the
Chicagos,.a and are willing to keep him
from signing with the Chicago club. Nc.
Cormick received $4,000 for pitching for
the Chicagos, and it is said that when he
signed last season he was promised that
different amounts would be paid him if
the club won the championship. The
promises were made to evade the rule of
the league prohibiting the payment of
salaries over $4,000.

Remarkable Surgery

Officer Chas. Whitney, one of the vic
Tins of the dynamite bomb, was yester-
day the ject of one of the most radical
and extreme operations known to scien-
tifc surgery. Whitney on the night of the
haymarket riot besides receiving other
injuries, had cash cut in his breast by
disconnected particles OF the exploded
bomb. He was taken to the hospital and
made such favorable progress that within
month he was transferred to his home
at No. 429 Rohey street. Here, too, he
made rapid strides, and at one time itwas
supposed he had completely recovered.
About two weeks ago, however, sudden
and very ominous relapse set IN, and the
poioemans life has since by turns been
given up and despoired of. Yesterday an
operation was performed upon him
Three times only in the history of surgi
cal Jurisprudence in this country has
like measure been resorted to. Ia all of
these cases the patisnt left the operation
table for the grave, Whitney's breast
wound had completely healed up. cur
sorry examination as TO what allied the rap
idly declining man was made by Ord. b.
Murphy. 1t developed the fact that
