The Street Urchin.
From The Boston Post.

The readiness with which the average street
boy catches on, " as the slang phrase has it, 10
the latest developments in affairs here in Bos-
ton, was illustrated in rather an amusing way
a few days ago. A policeman had occasion 10
drive number of these audacious urchns from
the Beacon street mall on the Common, where
they were engaged In playing marbles on sun
day Being somewhat feeter of foot than the
pethoric guardian of the peace and quiet Of the
Lords day. the boys dashed from the mall 10
the gravel walk around the Brewer fountain
and pulled out their marbles for a brief game
before the painting policeman could come up
with them When he had nearcd their stopping
place they gathered up their materials for their
game and then dashed away with renewed vigor
for more remote field Of pleasure. As the
policeman stood disheartened. apparently hop
ing against hope for another policeman to APP
pear in the dim distance one OF the boys shouted
out, with cruel disregard of his age and in
firmiues: Cop, you're too blown for a rnce
It's time you raked in your pension"

Hymn for Easter.

Rise. my soul, from things below,
Rise from sorrow sin and woe,
Rise and have thy sins forgiven,
Rise and seek the joys of Heaven.
Jesus suffered, Jesus bled;
Waves of wrath closed DER His head"
Jesus died, that you might gain
Pardon through His shame and pain.
On His head the thorns they put,
Then with nails they pierced His foot,
His hands they fastened TO the tree;
The Savior died! and We are free.
Passed His anguish, shame and death;
Mans work. Yet with dying breath
Prayed: Father forgive them for my sake,
My blood is the ransom that l make"
But look. What darkness hangs around!
And bark, That awful, solemn sound
What means this sound, what means this sight
tbs Jesus NOR procldimin9 HIS might.
Risen with healing in His wings,
Earth proclaims Him King of Kings;
Angels catch the glad refrain,
Christ is Lord of all again.

1t looks as if big political storm were

TO it, because while it remained there was no
danger of an attempt to recover AlSace and

foohshly placed him on the retired list.
That made him eligible to seat in
the Chamber of Deputies, and he is a can

IN Explanation Needed.

TMe more the river and harbor bill is
studied the clearer becomes the conviction
that Savannah has been treated with an in
justice that is almost unparalleled The Mis-
sippi aud Missouri rivers get almost one
fourth of the entire amount appropriated,
and it is by no means certain that the plans
for their Improvement will be successful.
The millions of dollars which have thus far
been spent upon them have been productive
of very unsatisfactory results, and it is far
from certain that the plans for their i'm
provement, which contemplate the ex-
penditure of something like $1,000 900.
when completed will accomplish the object
intended.
However, there is no disposition to com
plain of the good fortune of those rivers.
although if the Chairman of the River and
Harbor Committee were not from a State
especially interested in their improvement,
it is doubtful if they would have Jared so
WELL but there is a disposition TO complain
of the discrimination against Savannah
harbor. 1t is impossible TO see on what
ground this discrimination can tie justified.
Ii Savannah were an insignificant port the
reason for the indifference respecting her
harbor could be understood, but being one
of the most important ports in the country,
with rapidly increasing commerce. it is
impossible to comprehend the purpose of
the committee in virtually ignoring her.
The business men of Savannah should ask
for an explanation. II the needs of Savan-
nah have been misunderstood, let the fact
he known, and the committee will be fur
nished with information at ouce that will
convince it that it has done Savannah
great injustice, and afford it good reasons,
If it is disposed to do what is right, for in
creasing the Savannah harbor appropria-
ton when the bill is considered in the
House.
