His Mind ON the Faithful.

The late III. NJ. Hoxie was man
of remarkable memory. There ne vel
was a man connected with the Mis-
souri, Pacific, who stood by faithful
and loyal employees with more fidelity
than he. The following incident
connected with his career as general
manager, will serve to illustrate the
trite saying of, "the ruling passion
strongest in death"
1t was on night of February IA,
1885, bridge No. 81, about IS feet
long, built on piles. took fire, proba-
bly, from passing train. The bridge
is about one third of a mile north OF
Paris, Mo. The night was windy and
when the fire was discovered it was an
Insignificant blaze. A lad who was
night operator at Paris saw the flames
and he fastened to the spot, and by
perseverance extinguished it and then
tagged approaching trains, fearing
that the bridge might be weakened to
such an extent as to endanger the
SafetV OF trains.
Ten days later the young man re.
ceiyed the following letter
On THE ROAD, Feb. q, 1885.
E. II. Sadek, Esq, Operator, Paris, No.:
DEAR SIR:-I am informed through our
superintendent of telegraph that you were
instrumental in putting out the fire at
bridge No. 81, near your station on the
night of February l4th. l take this occas-
sion to compliment you for your efficiency
in looking after the interests of the COM
pany, and tr ust that you will meet such
returns from the company as you deserve,
for your gallant action.
Yours truly,
II. NJ. HoxIE, Third Vice Pres.
About one month before Mr.. Hoxie
died he telegraphed to Mr.. Ham
mond, at ST. Louis, asking what had
become of Sladek. He replied that
he was occupying a humble position
as night operator. Mr.. HOxie direc-
ted his promotion. He was ordered
to this city, and he now occupies a
responsible and lucrative position in
Superintendent Sheldon's office.
Thus it is, no employe can afford to
be anything but faithful to his trust.
Sooner or later fidelity has its reward.
For just such acts as the one told
here, will the name of Herbert NJ.
Hoxie live as long as time.

BEYOND THESE TEARS.

Beyond these dreams and tears Beyond these hopes and fearS- Beyond these weary yearS
 There waits for thee | home. 90 wondrouS fair So sweet. so pure, the air Breathes anthems everywhere
 In harmony. Angelic creatures move. Through every halmy grove Whose constant theme iS love
 In rapture sung And on their harpS is wrought Those strainS-tlivinely taught: And every rhythm caught
 On roses hung Till every pulse Was filled With their sweet breath, distilled For tender chords that thrilled
 Meath touches low. Where limpid streams pursue Enchanted bowers through; And myriad drops oi dew
 Resplenden; glow. Where tranquil skies rvpo>e Ger every stream that flows, Whose crystal beauty throws
 A light sublime. No tongue can ger possess The gift to hdlf confess The maichless lovelineSS

Kew Orleans ricaynne.
Shortly after 10 o'clock yesterday
morning Deputy Marshal Rose entered
the United States Circuit Court room
and thrice called the name Of II. y.
Ffisbie, who, according to an order Of
Judge Billings, was to have made bis
appearance at 10 o'clock, sharp, " pay
the One Of $1,000 TO which be was
sentenced for presenting false claims
TO the Government Of the United
States. Frisbie did not answer to bis
name when called, and a warrant was
accordingly obtained for his arrest.
Deputy Rose started out In search Of
the missing prisoner and returned ac'
companied by DR.. Pemberton, who ex-
planned that Frisbie had gone out on q
little business and would return at l
o'clock IN the afternoon. Chief Deputy
W~urzburger informed the doctor that
Frisbie had promised to be in court at
10 o'clock, and that his orders were to
lock Frlsbie up precisely at that hour
unless he paid his fine.
Deputy Rose again started out in
search of his man, and found him on
St. Charles street at about IL o'clock.
He submitted to arrest without a word,
and was Immediately taken to the
Parish prison.
District Attorney Charles Parlange,
who has been so successful in all the
cases tried by him during the past SEES
sion of the court, states that Frisbie
cannot be held in confinement longer
than thirty days. At the end of that
time he can make his application in
forma pauperis, on which ne would
have to be released.
1t is said that Frisbie will not have
so easy a time as it appears. His late
associate, Won Werthern, is actively
moving to secure the indictment of
Frisbie for forgery and that of Gernon,
the notary, for perjury.

THE Louisville Post thinks that Sam
Randall is the only man of any conse-
quence in this country. Indeed, the
Post believes that Randall is about the
only man Of any consequence that has
lived in the world since Julius Cesar
fell at the foot of Pompey's pillar. We
learn from the Post that Mr.. Randall
bossed the Democratic National Con-
ventiOn in 1884, and crammed the
platform down Mr.. Morrison's throat.
That platform says: "The Democratic
party is pledged to revise the tariff in
the spirit of fairness to all interests"
On Thursday last Mr.. Randall aided
the Republicans in defeating a motion
to consider the tariff question.-Louis-
