IN WINTER.
BALLADE,

Mrs. Ellen Louise Chandler Moulton.
On, to go back to the days Of June,
just to be young and alive again;
dearken again to the mad, sweet tune
Birds were singing with might and main;
South they flew at the summers wane,
leaving their nests for the storms. to harry
Since time was coming with wind and rain
Under the wintry skies to marry.
YEARLY wander by dale and dune
Footsteps fettered with clanking chain
Free they were in the days of June
Free they never can be again;
Fetters OF age and letters OF pain,
Toys that fly, and sorro VS. that tarry-
Youth is over; and hope were vain
Under the wintry skies to marry.
&ow we chant but desolate rune
ooh to be young and alive againn'
But never December turns to June,
Aud length of living is length OF pain;
Winds in the nestless tree complain,
Shows OF winter about us tarry,
And never the birds come back again
Under the wintry skies to marry.
ENVOY.
Youths and maidens, blithesome and vain
Time makes thrusts that you cannot
parry,
Mate in season, for who is fain
Under the wintry skies to marry?

with the same impression again. Then
he went to take the baby, who had not
yet learned that the moon is more dis
tant than the door-knob, a box OF geo.
graphical blocks. Then he went to In
quire if it needed pocket money; and
he told Malvina that he knew she was
not kept awake nights with it, because
her eyes were so bright.
After tea the moon came out. oh,
that wicked, shameless moonl Tom by
its light told Malvina right out that her
eyes were bluer than heaven-her lips
sweeter than roses-and all that.
When they parted Malvina went to
her room and cried.
What could perfect king of man
mean by talking like that to her!
OF course he could not mean tt
marry little school mistress only
home on vacation?
Tom acted queerly, too, when alone
in his room. He took a paper and
pencil, and figured and calculated. He
made list of all the little properties he
added then down. Then he set down 8
list of all things he was accustomed to
spend money upon that could be dis
pensed with Then he brought out
book Of economy, where it tells how
man can live cheaper with a frugal wife
than he can alone. He was astonlshed
to find that book SO intensely inter
esting!
The next day Tom went again to see
the baby. In fact, it had seemed to him
as though the afternoon would never
come. He had more waiting to do at
the cottage, for Malvina's mother re-
ceived him. and she did not appear. Al
last his Impotence spurred him to ask.

"She's simple child, sir, and is in
danger not to understand that at

'Dear Mrs. Baker, you misunderstood
me entirely. [ must see her this once.
must, indeed. If she sends me away
will never come again"
Tom conquered When he explained
to Malvina about his small income and
consulted with her about its sufficiency
she told him that he ought to be ashamed
to waste such heaps of money on one.
He should have sent half to the heather.
Toms income has thus far held out
better than when he was single.

Everyday Politeness.
from the Philadelphia Telegraph.

From the Philadelphia Telegraph
1t is astonishing how many people there are
in the world who do not know lntuitiyely what
common politeness dictates but still more as
tonishing how many there are who, knowing
what it dictates, do not seem to reflect that m
discarding the rules Of politeness they indi-
rectly sacrifice themselves by ignoring rules
deduced for the comfort of ali from the exper
jence of mankind; for the purpose, first of all
to prevent mankind's treadlng ON each others
toes, and then, in the higher grade, to make their
pathway pleasant. Trihes, it is said, make up
the sum of life; but paradosicaily, nothing is,
therefore,, tritle that goes to make up a sum
which, for the most favored of mortals, may
indeed be in excess of his deserts, but which.

THE STORM.
The Result of The DOyyn.POur on
the Railroads.


The condition of the railroads en-
tering this city, was not much better
yesterday than the day previous
though every exertion is being made
to put the lines in thorough condition
as soon as possible. The Santa Fe
Co.'S. bullitin board contained the fol-
lowing notice yesterday afternoon
"All trains to San Diego abandoned
until further notice.; 1t is impos-
sible to learn in this city the extent of
the damage anywhere on the Santa
Fe's lines as the Superintendent, Mr..
J. r. Gott, is in San Bernardino, and
no reports except those stat
ing that there is some trouble,
are sent to the officials here.
Mr.. Williamson Dunn also went to
San Bernardino yesterday morning
The train due here from that place at
10 40 O'Clock was delayed two hours
by slight washouJ at San Dimas,
that occurred just before it reached
there. The overland, which should
have left at 10 80 O'Clock Thursday
night, was held in this city until Z O5
A. NJ. yesterday morning, when it left
and proceeded to San Bernardno in
safety, though it is stated it could not
get further owing to the trouble in
the Cajon Pass There was consid-
erdble slide in the Csjon ON Thurs
day, but it is reported to have been
cleared up by 3 P. NJ, that
afternoon, and that another and more
serious one occurred during the night.
The overland train, due in this city at
7:05 A. NJ. yesterday was reported as
being held at Barstow until the road
was cleared. No one can tell how
long that will be. The same may be
said OF the line to San Diego. The
road to Port Pallona has been repaired
and the trains ran there as usual yes
terday.
The Southern Pacific reports bad
break one hundred yards long and
four deep at Whitewater, which oc-
Cured during Thursday night, but
which was "cribbed" by 10
A. NJ. yesterday. The most serious
trouble is the giving away of
the Santa Ana bridge just east OF Col
ton. Five supports of this bridge
washed out early yesterday morning,
making it impossible. A pile-driver
was sent out Immediately, and it is
believed the bridge will be repaired
by this morning, il NOT sooner. This
accident prevented the arrival of the
train due at $50 o'clock last night
from the East, and also prevented the
train which left this city at 6 p. M. for
the East going further than Cotton.
No. 20, for San Francisco, was made
up in this city, and left on time for
that place, as that road is per-
fectly safe, though necessarily q
little soft. The big washout
between Anaheim and Downey, or the
Santa Ana branch, was cribbed up
and made safe for the passage Of
trains unless more rain falls, when
there is strong probability that every
bit of the cribbing may be washed
out.

A Deserved Appointment.

Mr.. E. H. Hall has been since last
July chief clerk to Superintendent ].
r. Gott, OF the G. G. and G. S. rail-
way system in this city and has given
perfect satisfaction. Mr.. Gott, as a
reward for his excellent services, has
appointed him Chief Clerk of the
Freight Department at San Diego, and
Mr.. Hall will leave for that place next
week. He has been in the railway
service for about four years, having
served three years Of that in the en-
ploy OF the G. 4 O. Railway at New
port News. The position he is to as
sumo at San Diego is one of much re-
sponsibility, and is particular fine
compliment to Mr.. Halls ability, when
it is known that he is only nineteen
years OF age. Mr.. E. M. Cadman will
take Mr.. Halls place, and it is per-
fectly safe to predict that he will give
us much satisfaction. as did his pre-
decessor.
