Charles Reade's ONLY Ballad.

Once, in 1873, it occurred to him TO try
his own hand at versification. He was a.
Liverpool, experimenting the production
Of his theatrical adaptation Of "The Wan
dering Heir" lie nad an idea that a
popular ballad" modelled upon those
which are hawked about the streets, and
embodyinC the leading incidents of his
play, would serve well as an advertise
ment, and he set himself to the task Of
producing INT with an earnestness which
no person unacquainted with him could
have believed. to be sincere.
For several days it occupied the greater
part of his attention, and his delight in
the WORK was like that Of n child. II
never attempted anything of this sort be-
fore" he said, ''but, do you know, I
think l have a knack at it. Now listen,"
and he would read a dozen or more lines
Of the most rickety meter and barbarous
rhyme that ever were put together. He
actually thought it was q capital thing in
its way, and was as proud Of it, when
finished and printed, rs of the finest chap
ter he had written. 1t seems next TO in
credible that the author Of 1.-THE Cloister
and the Hearth" should get so fantastic q
notion into his mind, but it is q still
greater marvel that none of his intimate
companions saw anything homogeneous in
the proceeding. -Atlantic Monthly.

She Knew he Signs.

A traveller once put up for the night
with a supplemented old couple, in a
lonely farm house. AS he rode up to
the door he heard the old lady say, in
a tone of deep conviction 'There!
knowed somebody'd come before night,
for | dropped the dish-cloth at noon
another sure sign of company"
In entering the house the visitor
carelessly strnck his foot against the
step and came near falling.
"Ah" said the old lady quickly
(which toe did you stub. the right or
the left?"
''The right" was the reply.
That's good it's a sure sign you're
going where yeu're wanted Pa, shoe
that rooster off the fence. If he crows
there will be rain before morning"
A little boy suddenly ran into the
ROOM, crying out: 80, grandma, look
Here's a copper | found in the road"
"Im not a bit surprised. Don't you
icilCLiDCI, Iohihiy, hhdo you uicaLict
of finding a nest of hens eggs last
night? l told You then that you'd
find some money before a week"
A young woman was washing on a
porch at the back Of the house, and the
old lady suddenly cried out:
There, there, Susan; if you haven't
splashed soap suds all over the front OF
your dress! And If you don't get a
drunken husband for it I'm wonder.
fully mistaken. I've known this sign
to come true often and often. But you
can keep it from coming true by hang
ing all the clothes on the line wrong
side-out, and you'd better do it?,'
So Susan did, as the traveller noticed
to his great amusement.-4outh's

Homeslck Cowboys.

jim Kid, OF Buffalo Bills Wild West
Show, writes to Pony Bill, Of the Range
Journal, to say that several Of the bows
OF the Wild West have met with painful
accidents. Kid headed the list by his
horse, falling on him and MASKING him
up" while he was riding at full speed
picking mp two shilling pieces. Bnck
Taylor got his leg broken while tia COW
boys were dancing the Virginia reel on
horseback. Joe Esquival got his eyes
shot out with a blank cartridge. Dick
Johnson got his ribs mashed up by a
bucking horse falling on him. Billy
Bullock got his ankle thrown out OF
place by a fall. Broncho Charley got
his ankle mashed. One of the boys got
ipto q row on the street, licked seven
cops and stands now in imminent Ian
ger of relentless English law. Buffalo
Bill is a good, considerable boss the Wild
West is showing to $1,000 to 10000 daily,
but Kid says both the Indians and cow
boys are homesick, and declare if they
ever get west of the Mississippi river
again they will know enough to stay
there.-Dallas News.

One State

Washington, Dec. 30.-Speculation is
rife concerning the coming Of the ad-
mission-as-a-whole sat, snen, The Q
gentlemen are bound to make a sensa-
ton in the city. 1t is well known that
they are sure of welcome. Gov. Ordway
is their friend, and he is also a personal
friend of Cleveland. His acquaintance
in congress, in both houses, is unlimited.
He has not only continually and as
siduously fostered the friendships of
former Yeas, but he knows all the new
members. An introduction by him is a
passport to the confidence of gentlemen
who are expected to legislate for Da-
kota. He has declared bis belief in the
admission Of Dakota as a whole, with
the Texas proviso. The gentlemen who
are coming will be largely indebted to
him, not only for their introduction into
affairs, but also for advice. His worst
enemies have always conceded that
Ordway is able, shrewd, and not in any
sense a novice in politics. If the gen
tlemen take his advice, ard ask for adj
mission with the proviso referred TO,
they will be likely to gain their point.
This question of admission will be likely
to o~vershadow the matter of the OPEN
ing Of the Sioux reservation. They will
find MIR. Springer already prepared 10
meet, greet and welcome them. The
president will expect them, receive and
welcome them. Their cause will open
hopefully. Hon. VI. II. Day has con
graduated them. If he shall come on
here and aid them success will follow.
If he shall oppose them they will find
him a foeman worthy Of their steel. fle
has always been a strong divisionist. No
one here can tell what made him take
the action with which he is accredited.
But those who know him are aware OF
the fact that he is usually able to give
good and sufficient reasons for the hope
that is within him. Clifford says that
Day and Ordway have reconciled their
long standing differences and will here
after pull together. Clifford knows Day
well and is his friend. IF Day has
become an anti-divlsionist the gentle
men of the north have gained a power
full ally. Mr.. Day is expected here
soon.

Tho Hurricane Geyser.

The most wonderful Of all the wonders
at the Norris Basin, Yellowstone park, is
known as the Hurricane geyser. 1t is q
recent outbreak, scarcely a year old. The
crater Is about twenty by thirty feet, and
is inclosed by a solid wall Of rock, about
ten feet in depth, to tie surface Of the
water, and no one can tell how far below
this rocky Enclosure extends. Several
days ago we could sit on the north end Of
this rock rib and watch the torrid waves
rush down the inclosure, strike the wall
beneath our feet and sink into the earth,
20 reappear at the upper end with undi-
minished force. Now, eight days later,
we find that the boiling flood shoots out
over the wall whore we formerly sat.
The Hurricane presents the appearance
CT a revolving liquid globe. There is n
huge bowldcr in the center of the quad
rlngular crater, over which the water
dashcs with such force rs 10 give it the
appearance Of az immense wheel in per-
petual motion. The intense beat may
be realized, in o. measure, when ii is stated
that the rocks ten feet from the edge are
SO hot that the naked hand can only be
held on them for an instant. The water
is turbid and bears evidence OF the fact
that the subterranean chambers ARE be-
ing enlarged. They gre evidently alb
sorbing the material that has been dis
charged at other geysers.-Co st. Paul

Lat the Bill Pass.

The fame Of the squaw man has reach
ed Washington and he receives atten-
ton in 8 bill introduced by Senator
Dawes which provides that any white
man who hereafter marries an Indian
woman, a member of a tribe, can not
in any way become the owner of, or gain
AN interest in any tribal property, or
become the possessor of any property
upon a reservation. II is further pro-
vided that any squaw who marrics a
white man shall become, by such mar
riage a citizen of the United States,
with all the rights and pfivilcs es OF
married women, under the laws Of the
United States to buy, hold or transfer
property. The intent of the measure is
To prevent the husbands of Indian wives
from accumulating pioperty under the
severaltv act and acquiring influence
which is usually used in opposition to
treaties with the Indian, and to the
allotment Of lands in severalty.-Press

Two New York Table Princes.

Larry Jerome Is not eminent in politics
or finance, has never held u notable pub.
lie position and his wealth Is limited, yet
when he arrived from England yesterday
the whole town began to gossip and today
there are interviews in the papers col.
umns in length. 1t would puzzle an out
slider TO account for Larry Jerome's prom
inence. No recent arrival has attracted
so much attention. Beside him the ST.
amese princes, the Duke Of Marlborough,
Sir Lyon Playfair and all the other nobil-
tiles fade out Of sight. Larry Jerome
dwarfs them all. The explanation is
simple: He's a diner out and a mighty
one ut that. His presence at a table in
sures the success Of the entertainment.
Wherever he goes he is eagerly sought
after on account of his jollity, wit and
humor. I've known John w. Mackay
and Roscoe Conkling TO wander about the
uptown cafes for hours trying TO find Je-
rome or Tom Ochiltree so as to carry them
off to dinner.
A more beautiful and touching sight
than these four gentlemen around the fes-
tive board it would be impossible to i'm
aGine. I've seen them in the now defunct
Carleton club when even the walters were
impressed by the air of geniality and good
fellowship that lowered over the table.
Ochiltree was benign, rotund, gloomy,
fiery and joyous; Mackay silent and
bright eyed, smiling with intense muse
menu; Conkling dignifed, but quizzical
and bright, and Larry jerome amiable,
easy, quick as n fash at repartee, brim-
ming over with infectious fun-in q word,
himself. Ochiltree's fame is still grow
ing and he owes it all to his social quail
ties. Like jerome, he is short, stout and
the picture Of good liying.-New York

Red

Copies Of the following bloodthirsty
document were recently circulated on
the streets Of New York city:
Fellow-workmen: The hour has come.
The agencies of science must play a part
in the struggle of the future. lester-
day it was the slaughter Of our comrades
ut Chicago. To-day it is the assassina-
ton of &c, 1000 brothers on the Philadel-
phia and Reading railroad. True. the
sword is a weapon of circumstances, but
it's victims perish all the same.
Do not waste your force on the scabs
they are Only the effect of the present
damnable commercial and competitive
system.
Destroy, by all the agencies at your
command, the direct representatives of
the system, the Corbins, the Maxwells
and the Goulds.
Let torch, bomb or bullet strike them
now. Let all they possess be given to
the flames, hound them day and night
The strike must be made the war of
classes.
Brothers, remember Chicago and your
oath.
