SPOKEN AFTER SORROW.

know of something sweeter than the chime
Of fairy-bells that run
Down mellow winds O.! fairer than the
time
You sing about in happy, broken rhyme,
Of butterflies and sun.
But o! as many tabled leagues away
As the tomorrow when the east breaks
is this which lies somewhere most still and
far
Between the sunset and the dawn's last star,
And known as yesterday.
know of something better, dearer, too,
Than the first rose you hold;
All sweet with Juue and dainty with the
dew,
The summers perfect promise breathing
through
Its white aves'tender fold.
Oh! better when the late winds, gathering
Behind the night and moaning sad and low
Across the world, shall make its music
dumb,
Oh! dearer than this earliest rose to come
Will be the last to go.
l know Of something sadder than this nest
OF broken eggs you bring,
With snch sweet trouble stirring at your
breast,
For love undone-the mother birds unrest
That yesterday could sing.
My little child, too grieved to want my kiss,
Do forget the sweetness they will miss
Who built the home! My heart with yours
makes moan,
6ut o. that nest from which the birds
kave flown
Is sadder far than this

English military leaders are begin
ming to urge reform in what is known
as the horse question In 1873, when
the army required 1900 transport
horses, it was found necessary to import
1900 from France. In 1882 it took
l,7OO OF the useful beasts. In the first
month of a serious war it is estimated
that g, 900 horses would be needed by
the various brances of the British serv-
ice; 2, 500 is the utmost that the home
market could supply.

Counting the Trade Dollars,

Treasury clerks who count the trade
dollars have to wear buckskin gloves or
get sore fingers. Amy sore spot on the
finger is soon poisoned by contact with
the metal. People who sigh to count
dollars should bear this in mind.

OLYMPIA needs and should have a
number Of railroads to the various
sections that lie contiguous to her
markets and are anxious to trade here.
One of the pressing demands is a road
between here and Kamilchie, to con-
meet with the road now nearing COM
pletiOn to Montesano. The trade of
that section is something wonderful,
and is steadily growing. Practical
railroad men have declared that it can
be built and equipped very cheaply,
and by making it q commercial as well
as logging road, it will pay hand
some return to its projectors. Our
capitalists should attend to this mat.
ter and not let the prize slip from their
grasp. Centralia, and several other
points, are already in the field bidding
for it, and, unless We look around right
smartly, we may get left.

The Deacon Went Wrong.

George W. Still, colored, who lives at
No. 713 Gold street, Camden, and who is
said to be a most earnest exhorter at
prayer meetings, languishes in jail on the
charge of having stolen another mans
wife and having lived with her in a
manner contrary to morality and the laws
of the State.
Still was arraigned before Justice
Schmitz yesterday afternoon, when Will
lam f. Ellis, also colored, of No. 100
Meadow street, Philadelphia, appeared as
the. complainant. Mr.. Ellis, with tears in
his eyes, related how Still, several weeks
ago, persuaded his wife to leave her home
and come to Camden.
Still and Mrs. Evans admitted that they
had been living together, but both denied
that they had occupied the relation of
husband and wife. Mrs. Ellis, Still said,
had cooked for him and kept the house,
but they had done no wrong.
''We had no 'tention of being man and
wife" said Still, "but course every ting
was peas n hominy 'twixt u.s."
The Justice refused to credit the story,
and unfeelingly demanded $500 for Still,
which the latter was unable to furnish.
Mrs. Ellis was held in her own ~recogniz-
ance to appear at the fall term of court,
as her husband was willing to forgive her
n take her back TO his arms.
Found in the Canal.
The body of Mrs. Christian Haas, of
Trenton, was found in the canal, neal the
Still House bridge, yesterday morning.
Mrs. Haas left her Gus on Saturday
night and was not seen again until her
body was found yesterday. John Clever
heard of Mrs. Haas being missing and
also heard that she was seen in that neigh
borhood. He procured arowboat and was
proceeding up the canal when he met a
steamboat, and after the boat had passed
he saw the body. He secured the body
and then notified Coroner Albeit.
Mrs. Haas husband is a decorator en-
ployed at Alpaugh & Magowan's pott ry,
and resided at No. 9O4 Clinton avenue.
The only cause for Mrs. Haas disappear
ance and drowning is that she was acting
under a temporary alteration of mind.
She had no trouble at home. She leaves
four children, n of which is a baby four
months old.
still More Camden BIoodshed.
A serious stabbing affray occurred in
South Camden at a late hour on Saturday
night between William Beatty and
Thomas Brooks, eighteen and twenty
years old respectively. The trouble re-
suited from Jealousy between the young
men. The fight took place at the corner
of Kaighn avenue and Locust street.
Beatty was walking with a young
woman named Marsden and another
whose name is not known. AT the corner
they were met by Brooks, who was in
National Guard uniform. having just re-
turned from target practice at Sea Girt.
Beatty at once exclaimed, you've been
lying about me and you must take it back
or I1l thrash you
1t is said that Beatty Their struck
Brooks, who drew his pocket knife and
plunged it into Beatty's side, and again
into his face, inflicting a cash nearly five
inches long. A third slash cut Beatty's
coat at the shoulder but failed to enter
the flesh. Brooks then leaped into a
passing wagon and escaped.
Beatty was removed to Cooper Hos
pital, where his wounds were found to be
