All in . joyful furry.

Ofsweet pink blossomed clover,
And thought my cup OF happiness
Was full 70 running over.
Idrsnk the perfume Of the buds
Until Intoxicated
Ispread myself out on bank
And there luxuriated.
The soothing sweetness Of the spot
O'crcame my raptured senses.
And Iulled me TO sleep profound,
Devoid Of all pretenses.
A dash OF light A starry flight

And whenever think OF that event

QUEER LOSS OF MEMORY.

How Players Sometimes Forget Their
 Most Familiar Lines-Some Singular
 Lapses of Popular Actors.
 Edwin Booth during the past season found himself frequently sticking" in lines of parts that he has been playing for thirty years or more. It almost alarmed him, es- pecially when taken in conjunction with the sickness anent which MT. Barrett made him. self SO ridiculous, and he went to doctor about it. He was assured, however, that it meant nothing more than that from playin s the same parts so long and repeating the same lines in monotonous reiteration the mental act had become purely mechanical, and if the tongue stumbled for 8 moment the mind had to concentrate itself for some time before 1t could go back to it's normal function.
 The same thing occurs, says a writer in the Chicago Journal, when a man is telling something of no particular importance and some slight interruption takes place. He can not for the moment bring back to mind what te was talking about, and will say to his conpanion:
 tsWhere was I2 What was sayingf
 It hasn't any thing to do, therefore, with defective memory-more properly with de- fective enthusiasm in the work at hand. It is told how Fife Ellsler once had to leave ssHazel Kirke," because she got in this me- chanical method of reiteration, against which she struggled, but which overcame all her faculties and made her think at times that she was going mad. It is really Q more difficult thing to play part on the four thousandth than on tho fiftieth time.

THE SCRIPTS LEAGUE.

The American Workmen Entertained by
 Minnie Palmer in Glasgow.
 GLASGOW, Sept. 4.-On the arrival of the members of the soripps' League of American Workmen in this city, Min nie Palmer, the American actress, in- vited them to visit in a body the Royal Theatre, at which she Is playing. The proscenium boxes were reserved for the American tradesmen, and they attrac- ted as much attention from the large au- dience as the actress herself. Enthu- siastic plaudits and three cheers were given for the Americans as the curtain fell.
 After the performance Miss Palmer gave reception to the party at her hotel. A number of literary and dra- matic notables were present. The company were entertained with songs and recitations by Miss Palmer, Mrs. Barry and Julian Hawthorne. The newspapers published columns of the affair this morning. The party have chartered a steamer for the purpose of visiting the shipyards on the Clyde.

VICTORY IN THE AIR
The Dock Companies Ask for
 a Conference.
A SETTLEMENT VERY PROBABLE
A Belief Gaining Ground that the Strikers
 Demands Will Be Conceded.

Liverpool In Line With London-Burns
 Says There Will Re a Strike in Glasgow.
 Sir Donald Currle's Threat-Money Pour
 ing In to the Strikers-Mr. Gladstone
 ofLondon.
 LONDON, Sept 1.-The belief is gain ing ground that the great strike will be settled no later than tomorrow, when the directors of the dock companies are expected to concede the strikers de- mands. Charles Morgan Norwood, tho chairman of the directors, late last evening sent telegram to the strikers committee requesting an appointment for a conference, and meeting will be held this afternoon. This action is be- lieved to foreshadow an agreement be- tween the companies and the strikers.
 Money is coming in rapidly and the strikers will not listen to concessions They are united upon the demand of sixpence per hour and the abolition of the contract system, and Burns declares they will hold out until the deck own CTS make the concession if the strike lasts year. Regarding Sir Donald Currie's threat to take his ships to Southampton, Burns said that if any of the London lines attempted to use the docks he would organize a strike there at once. He also said that the dockmen in Glasgow would be on strike within forty-eight hours.
 The Importing Trade Society has voted s:S,0OO to the strikers fund.

A BILLION DOLLAR TRUST,
An Englith Syndicate Proposes
 to Invade Our HOmeS.'
WALL STREET AROUSED,

The startling announcement has now reached us that the English syndicate is to spread its fangs about an unsuspect- ing people and how far-reaching 1t will be in it's consequences none but those in moderate circumstances can fully realize. They contemplate destroying the beauty of our homes by forming
 GREAT FURNITURE TRUST. The result will be of course high prices. We have been always the enemy of high prices. Our push, energy and honest and business principles have reduced the prices Of furniture in this country at least 90 per cent and we point with pride and confidence to our
 THIRTEEN HUNDRED AND SIXTY-N1NE
 REGULAR CUSTOMERS to bear us out in this statement. The people who patronize us are intelligent and know exactly what they are buying don't advertise to sell goods at half price because honest intelligent people
 KNOW IT CAN'T BE DONE. We don't try to thieve by humbugging the people. We believe Ill telling the truth because it Is by this means we have built up our immense business.
 AN ENGLISH SYNDICATE can do nothing against us because we own our establishment. We buy our goods for cash, thus saving all discounts and our facilities for handling goods are such that six men can do the work of ten.

 We'll wait on you with pleasure.

SLUGGERS' PARADISE,
California tho State Where Sluggers c
 Fight Unmolested.

California tho State Where Sluggers Can
 Fight Unmolested.
 California, with it's auriferous soil, its genial climate, it's bonanza kings, and it's fighting clubs is to be envied. The South rons now can not fight with natures weap- ons or with artificial ones, and the North erners are likewise restrained by law; but In the occident every thing "goes." If you don't like a legal lumlnary shoot him. If you are prize-fghter you can pursue your profession to your full bent-vide Dempsey, La Blanche, Ellingsworth, the Murphys, NacAuliffe, Jackson and Tom Warren.
 Out on the coast they will soon have two battles that will be worth a journey to see The most important of these is, of course, that in which La Blanche and Dempsey will figure as principals, but scarcely less important Is that between Joe Billings worth and Denny Kelliher, of Quincy, Mass Who will win the latter! Both are remark able middleweights, not so clever as Demp- sey, but stronger, and when they meet the blood will flow and freely, too. The first time saw Kelliher fight, says correspond ent of the Chicago Tribune, was in Boston, and he had as an antagonist ''The Marine" Both are sluggers and heavy right hand hitters, and the way they mauled each other was caution.
 First one and then the other received knockdown blows, and so fast and furious was their fighting that it could be likened only to a game-cock fight. In the third round, when it appeared as if KeIliher would win, the police entered the room and caused a scurry that ended the fight. Since then Denny has fought draw with Pete Mccoy and one with La Blanche, and has whipped Ike Williams, of Bridgeport, and lesser lights of the ring. He has terrific right, and if he lands on the spot it is "kiss kadee" with the other chap. But the same may be said of Ellingsworth. Joe was the amateur middle-weight champion in 1884, 1855 and 'ss, and has since fought a ten-round draw with Jack Fogarty, who gave Dempsey the hard est battle of his life. Between Joe and Denny 1t Is an even question, although the former will have any possible benefits be- cause of his being instructoraof the club under whose auspices they will fight. do not by this mean to infer that any favorit- ism will be shown, but we all know there ere almost imperceptible outside influences that aid one man in a fight.
