Jay Gould as an Author.

New York Letter to Pittsburg Commercial
Gazette.
The great wizard of Wall street is so
fixed in the public mind as financier
that few ever think of him as an author.
But authorship was, in fact. his first vo-
cation. When he was just beginning a
business career. thirty years ago, and
when he had barely attained bis major
ity, he made survey of his native
county, and not only published history
of it but accompanied it with supple
mentary map. His peregrinations with
a wheelbarrow over its many crooked
roads are still remembered, though
the financial success of his enter
prise was not by any means equal
to that which followed afterwards. Yet
his History of Delaware County, N.
Y" now so scarce and difficult to pro-
cure, was a most creditable perform
ance. 1t cost no little labor, and was
exceedingly we'll done. The county had
a stirring history, and was the scene of
fierce Indian, anti-rent and Tory con-
flicts, all of which were faithfully and
graphically related by Mr.. Gould. The
book, however, soon went out of his
mind. and, it is said. has been partially
extinguiShed through his own efforts.

ARHYME OF OLD SONG.

What of the rhymes of to-day,
When June is a June OF old,
When the rose is made red ON our way,
When the skies are of blue and OF goldi
What of our rhymes shall we sayf
The drivelers chant as they may,
And tales of the gods are untold
They chant of pleasure or pain
The herd has a mellower songi
They sing, in how hopeless strain,
And we wait for prophecy long.
And we listen, ah, listen in vain
For voice of the gods come again
For the sight of priest in the throng
All me! how the iron-ways clang,
And the green fields are not as Of yore.
And grimly the yellow coins rang
That tinted the deep-delved ore.
Yea, the wine of the poets who sang,
1t has lost the Falernian tang,
And the poet is not any morel
But the creature of greed and of death,
Who shall sleep in the hoilows low down,
He has tarnished the sun with his breath
And ruined the meads with the town.
He shall lie in the barrow beneath
The green waving grass of the heath.
While leaves Of the grass shall grow brown.
All me! for the singers of oldl
How they sung, the delicious and sweetl
How they fingered and lived on the void,
In the day of a manhood more meet
When womanhood wandered unsold,
When not everything smacked of the mould
OF the mine, or the bitterer street!
All. June, thou art blowing in vainl
You shall find them no more in the mead
The delight of the melloWer strain,
The loves of the lovers indeed
(Only madmen run wild DER the plain,)
We buried deep under the rain
The shapes of the faithful at needl
All, sad are the rhymes Of to-day,
Though June is q June as Of old,
And we know that the best is the clay
That lies over the iron and the goldi
All, would could say, Let us pray
For a hope on the desolate way,
AS the flowers spring out of the mouldw

and south sides are represented eagles.
with StreamerS extending from their
beakS, bearing the names of the battles
in which Gen. Logan participated. The
features of the west and east sides OF
the frieZe are the coats of arms of the
United States and of the state of llli-
nois. In the corners are conventional
representations of ivy, laurel, shamrock
and thiStles.
A marble bust of the general is con-
spicuous, while photographs, battle
flags and other objects of interest are
hung against the wall or rest upon
easels. A low bookcase extends around
the room. The hall, which is 15X40 feet,
with lofty ceiling, opens into con-
servatOry, which gives very pretty
effect. There are two large windows in
the hall, filled with stained glass made
from special designs furnished by the
decorator. These are memorial will
dows. The center of the south window
has bust of the general, with his name
below, and in the lower part a crossed
sword and gun and scroll with pen,
emblematic of the career of Gen. Logan.
The center of the north window con-
tains family coat of arms and large
Masonic badge, the Loyal Legion badge
and other emblems. The hall has been
appropriately furnished.
Mrs. Logan is now having stained
glass made for the windows of the gran-
ite mOrtuary chapel in Rock Creek
cemetery, where the remains of Gen.
Logan now rest. Rose windows are in
the front and rear of the chapel. In
the front the window has a blue field,
with red, white and blue bolder and
forty stars. The design of the rear
window contains the family crest and
the Chevalier Bayard commandery en-
blem. At the top is the United States
flag and the headquarters flag of the
general.

AN ART AS WELL AT A FAD.
1t has now become an art as we'll as a
fad among the ladies to have shoes of
color and shade to match that of gloves,
ribbons and other fancies of the wearer.
a notable example is seen i'll an Oxford
tie, the vamps of which are bright
orange ooZe. Across the vamp run mar
row strips of patent leather, feather
stitched with orange silk. This had the
appearance of being narrow silk, ribbon
gayly embroidered. The quarters are
Nile green suede, the heels Louis v.
aud set well under the foot. The soles
are as light and flexible as the artful
shoemaker can make them.
A very neat conceit for the promenade
is an Oxford tie, with bright russet
vamps and tops and tips of patent
leather.

And again silence falls on the quintet
as they continue to enjoy the sugar

Then suddenly the five children sit
very still, and forget to go on eating,
for three figures appear in sight upon
the ridge against the horiZon-a girl In
dark serge dress clinging to the arm

head, standing listening, motiOniess as

For moment the tableau is accen-

Then the warm flush fades. The short,
square figure moves slowly away across
the darkening meadow, still with bent
head and reSolute. dogged shoulders,
but with curious unevenness of gait
and then Tammy bursts outcrying. and
clenching her fist shakes it furiOuSly at
the distant, gold-haired girl.

locks himself into the study. 1t is all

COURTLY JUSTICE FIELD.
The Interesting Personality of the
Man Who Incurred Judge Ter
RVS Eumity,

The Interesting Person ality of the
Man Who Incurred Judge Ter
ry's Enmity.
Washington Letter to Philadelphia Press.
Justice Field is one of the courtliest
men in public life here. And his home
is enriched by many curios from his
early residence abroad, for from his
thirteenth to his sixteenth year he was
in Smyrna with his sister Emilia, who
had married a missionary of the Amer
lean board. Here he learned to speak
modern Greek with great ttuency, and
acquired certain cosmopolitan tone OF
thought and manner which sits upon
him with charming grace. He gradu-
ated at the Williams college i'll 1887,
first in his class. Eleven years later he
took his venerable father abroad with
him for stay of many months, where
he had gone on some legal business for
his brothers firm. In 1S49 he went to
California, was alcalde of the Marys-
Vile district in the troublous early days,
and represented Yuba county in the
Legislature as early as 1851.
He was already bachelor of consid
erably over forty when he married
daughter of his Carifornia landlady,
Miss Swearingen, who has ripened into
one of the most patrician matrons of the
capital city, and until one or two recent
accesSiOnS was called the handsomest
of the supreme court ladies. They have
no children. Mrs. Fields particular cult
is Shakespeare, and she is the founder
and chief patroness of club of Shake
Speare lady students, which meets
peripatetically during the SOcialmonths.
The marked resemblance OF Justice
Field to the busts of Shakespeare, nota-
bly, in the high bald forehead and
pointed beard, emphasizes this fad Of
his good wife very emphatically.
1t is part of the unWrltten social his
tory of the last year that Justice and
Mrs. Field resented strongly the action
of President Cleveland in passing him
to appoint Mr.. Fuller. Neither of them
attended the presidents judiciary state
dinner, which was marked atfrOnt-
They. however, were guests at dinner
given to the president shortly after
wards by Postmaster General and Mrs.
Don Dickinson, at which the FullerS
were also present. In matters of unOffi-
cial consultation it is an open secret
that Chief Justice Fuller, reciprocating
the GOODNESS on the part of Justice Field,
passes him by and cOnfers instead with
his Republican right-hand neighbor on
the bench, Justice Miller; and Mrs.
Fuller runs in" to Mrs. Miller's on
her way home from marketing in fa-
miiar, village friendship way, whereas
her acquaintance with Mrs. Field is of
the most formal character.

duke had a dinner party at Apsley
House. One of the guests asked the
duke If he was not tormented by appli-
cations for his autograph. The duke

friend then said: "a few days ago
