ONLY A WOMAN.

Here is a tale of the days that are gone:
Trampled and lost i'll the battle fields
night
Days Of chivalry, valiant and white;
Hearts made of passion-fiower, wills that
were stone
Only a woman with babe-at her breast.
Nursing and grooming lullaby song
Only a woman. and yet, was there wrong
She had not suffereds All, God Was it best:
Freely she offered them, husband and son,
Up for a sacrifice, holy and just;
But the Misunderstanding dust unto
DUST
Brought no reward in a victory won
Standing alone in her sorrow and pain.
Half of her heart in the fresh -sodded
What did it matter to her was there
dearths
Sod, that has given, would give her again -
But there were others who murmured with
dread:
Murmured until they awakened her
heart
Cried she aloud: ''Who, besides me, will
start
Out to the Federal picket for bread?''
Black were the faces, but white were the eyes
(Cowards are common, no matter what
race);
Never a man of them stirred from his
place,
Never an offer of sure sacrifice.
Rustic of drapery, springing of feet,
Quick, with South WOmanS freedom
and grace,
Sprang she to saddle and turned for the
race;
Gone. With love shining through woman
eyes sweet!
None of them ever will know all the tale
All of the gallop through gathering
night;
Challenge of picket and Gathering
Bullets that spattered around her like hail.
All that they knew, as the darkness grew
bright
Scattered like sheep without shepherd
they StOOd),
Trample of hoofs in the edge of the
wood.
Flutter of skirts in the gray morning light!
Gathered around with shout and song,
Lifted her tenderly down, and she cried
Brokenly: Loosen the bag that is tied;
There is your bread-haye been away long!"
Fell like an animal stricken, one moan;
Dead with ball in her bosom of white
Days of chivalry valiant and white;
Hearts made of passion-leaf wills that were

Granted an Interview.

ROME, Jan. 3.-The pope granted an
interview to-day to Eugene Venillote
and his son. His holiness expressed his
deep regret at the present sad position
of France, but felt confident that she
would rise again to her old position in
Christendom. The pope lamented the
spirit of revolution which at present is
rampant in Europe, and said that he
was preparing two encyclical letters
dealing with the licease of the press and
the great power of universal suffrage,
which he regards as terrible menace
to peace. 1t is believed that his holiness
will in these letters also discuss the
land and Irish questions for the guild
ance of faithful Catholics.

Great Demand for FIower-pots

Great Demand for FIower-Pots.
New York Sun.
''What becomes of all the flowers in
winter?" florist was asked. The an
swer was that many of the choicer ones
were pOtted and housed during he win
ter months. For the manufacture of
t1Ower-pots earthen clay is used of a fine
quality, which burns red. The smallest
tiOwer-pOt made is two inches in diam
eter and the largest sixteen. The pot
ter forms his clay into balls of cOnven-
lent and suitable size. He dips his
hands into water, and having placed
the lump of clay upon his wheel he
opens it and deity draws it up to a
gauge so fixed in the shaft of the wheel
as to indicate the dimensions of the pot
desired. The wheel itself is of solid
plank, eighteen inches in diameter. 1t
is set upon revolving shaft, which is
worked by treadle. This is the only
machinery used by potters, and with
the exception of some slight alterations
in the treadle 1t has remained the same
for upward of 5000 years.
The flower pots are either sun-dried
or dried In all oven moderately heated,
when they are ready for the kiln. Here
they are placed in nests, and are al
lowed to remain from day and half
to two days. Ii very hard ones are
wanted they remain longer in the kiln,
and the fire is kept at white heat.

Revoked the Licenses.

Special TO the GLOBE.
ABERDEEN, OAK, Jan. 3.-The board
of county commissioners in session to-
day passed resolution revoking all
licenses heretofore granted in this
county. This brings out another fine
legal point in reference to the law. Has
the county power to revoke
licenses granted by the city council?
The board does not particularly assume
that it has, but thinks the resolution
adopted is IN accordance with the law,
heretofore granted in the county. The
city council met again tonight, but took
no further action relative to the exist
ing licenses.

The Old Clowns Days Are Over.

LOUISVILLE COurler-JOurnal.
Col. W. c. Crum, the advance agent
of Forepaugh's circus, says: The day
of the clowns is nearly over. Formerly
they were half the show, but now they
attract but little attention. The ell
largement of the shows is the chief
cause. The big shows now have two
or three rings, and the circle of seats is
so far off that the people cannot hear
the jokes of the clowns. In the old days
an average clown received from 800 to
$500 week. Dan Rice, who was con-
sidered the greatest of them all, was
paid $1,000 week, which was the high
est salary clown ever received. He
was bright, ambitious young fellow.
possessed of much originality. and he
reached the tOp-nOrch of his profession.
Once an educated young Englishman,
graduate of Oxford university, who
possessed excellent comic talents, was
brought over to this country, and he
was paid $500 week. At the present
day the pay of the clowns ranges from
$40 to $50 a week."
