HElIoTR0PE.

Amid the chapel's checkered gloom
She laughed with Dora and with Flora,
And chattered in the lecture room
The saucy little sophomore!
Yet while las In her other SCHOOL,
She was privileged transgressor.
She never broke the simple rules
or one particular professor.
But when he spoke of varied lore.
ParoIytones and modes potential,
She listened with face that wore
A look half fond. half reverential.
To her that earnest voice was sweet;
And, though her love had no confessor'
Her girlish heart lay at the feet
OF that particular professor.
And he had learned. among his books
That held the lore Of ages olden,
To watch those ever-changing looks.
The wistful eyes and tresses golden,
That stirred his pulse with passions pain
And thrilled his soul with soft desire,
Longing for youth 10 come again,
Crowned with its coronet OF fire.
Her sunny smile. her winsome ways,
Were more to him than all his knowledge
And she preferred his words of praise
To all the honors Of the college.
Yet "What am foolish to him"
She whispered to her one confessor.
"She thinks me old, and gray and GRIM"
In silence pondered the professor.
Yet once, when Christmas bells were rung
Above ten thousand solemn churches,
And swelling anthems. grandly sung.
pealed through the dim cathedral arches
Ere home returning, filled with hope
Softly she stole by gate and gable,
And a sweet spray OF heliotrope
Left on his Uttered study table.
Nor came she more. from day 10 day,
Like sunshine through the shadows rifting;
Above her grave, far, faI away,
The ever-silent SHOWS were drifting.
And those who mourned her winsome face
Found in its stead a swift successor
And loved another In her place
All, save the silent, old professor.
But, in the tender twilight gray.
Shut from the sight of carping critic,
His lonely thoughts would often stray
From vedic verse and tongues Semitic
Bidding the ghost Of perished hope
Mock with its Past the sad possessor
or the dead spray ofheliotrope
That once she gave the old professor.

ANOTHER VETERAN GONE


Thomas Walsh, who recently died at the
house OF his step-son-in-law, Mr.. Martin, No.
l2l3 street n. W., this city, was a gentleman
OF Irish birth. In Ireland he was solicitor
and like many Europeans, emigrated to seek
his fortune in the Western World.
Mr.. Walsh came to this country shortly be-
fore the breaking out of the rebellion. Quiek
to comprehend the necessities of his newly
adopted country, he offered bis services. In
mediately upon his enlistment in the 74th n.
I. IN 1901, MIR. Walsh was detailed as a clerk
at Gen. Daniel +. Sickles's Corps Headquarters
lie was highly commended for his soldierly
and Rentlemanly qualities by Gen. Sickles and
Col. Tremain, of the 74th n. Y. He carried
his musket at Fair Oaks, Charlottesville and
gettysburg. where he received a spent ball in
the forehead July 2, 1868. He was captured in
Col. Mosby's raid on Brandy Station on the
night of Nov, %, 1863, at the headquarters of
Gen. French, who had relieved Gen. Sickles.
Upon his capture he was relieved by the Con-
federates of all the money about his person,
having just been paid. and his uniform was
exchanged for the clothing of his guard, in
which garb he was placed upon lean, razorback
mule, aud whipper followed TO give the mule
a lash every time he Jagged. At every lash the
animal would give jump forward, and its rider
would lock his arms around the neck of the ami
nal TO keep from falling of. In this miserable
way he was taken over the rough mountain
roads from Brandy Station to Richmond where
he was thrown into Libby Prison, and three
months afterward was sent to the Anderson
vile pen, where BIO remained for nine months.
In the Winter of 1864 he was one of the
$4,000 at Andersouville who walked all night
to keep from freezing. He was paroled in De-
cember, 1864. His evidence convicted Capt
Wirz
While in AndersonviIle Prison he had Tes-
lament. on the margin of which he kept daily
record of snch happenings within his view, aud
the most interesting entry was his eyewitness
of the shooting of the idiot boy who reached
beyond the dead-line TO secure a moldy biscuit
which he had placed in the sun TO dry. This
Testament he had loaned TO some eomrade,
whose name the family have never been able
to learn. If this should reach the eve of the
person having it, be will confer favor by re-
turning il TO Lincoln Post, No. 3, Washington,
ID. G.
When Mr. Walsh came to Washington he
was upon the recommendation OF Adj't-Geu.
Hartz aud Judge Adyocate-Gen Chapman, ap-
pointed clerk in the Office Of the COmmissary-
General of Prisoners, where he remained until
1870 when he was appointed clerk in the
Postofiee Department, where he remained
until paralyzed on June %. 1885.
The noble qualities of character and high
intellectual attainments of Dir. Walsh made
him an agreeable companion TO all who bad
the pleasure of his acquaintance.

10 Is stated that at Portland the President
was tacitly invited to kiss baby. aud that he
rrfgAn6d from doing 10. Gen. Harrison GER
tainly has the courage of his convictions. Most
Presidents would have kissed that baby. They
would have feared ihc resentment of the proud
father who pushed the child forward. and
doubtless expected to tell the story for many
years 10 come how lis cheek had been pressed
by the lips Of President. They would have
thought it good politics aud good policy 10 kiss
the baby, and be rewarded by the admiration
OF the crowd for so much amiabilily aud con-
deseension Kissing babies has always paid in
politics. If We nre TO believe all the chronicles.
We arc not informed OF the Presidents reasons
We are simply told that he did not kiss the
hahy. Perhaps he thinks that babies should
not he unfortunately kissed. If 80, he
laugh. good lesson. The practice of kissing
children at sight is a nuisance aud ought to be
abated.
