Old Mrs. Maple owned house and land

MEMORIES.

When twilight's hush ia drawing nigh
And thwart the blue the shadows lie,
Fond memries cluster thick and fast
Around the dear old buried past;
IT'S then dream of rosy hours,
Faith, hope and love In wooded bowers,
And merry voices low and sweet,
And converse fraught with joy complete
stu brighter visions round me cling,
When song birds brown are carolling,
How that we pledged our hearts pure VOWS
Beneath the apples crimson boughs,
And stroled the woodlands through and through
For clovers red and vi'lets blue
And smiling, laughing lily bells,
The pride Of moss entangled dells
Those vanished years they come and go,
Like specters gliding to and fro,
Across my weary, songless path
That lies along life's aftermath;
But soon, beyond the sun kissed hills,
When freed from earthly cares and ills.
III meet the loved and brave of yore,
And yearn the perfect past no more

There are no data now existing which
will enable any one to predict what win
be the size Of boilers, engines, dynamos,
steamships, bridges, cars, locomotives,
Office buildings and other structures ten
years hence. Everything in the en-
cheering line seems to be changing at a
more rapid rate than at any previous
period. Certainly the limit to increase
Of size does not yet appear. When the
single engine reached its limit in ship
building, the compound engine came in.
When shafts and screws seemed to have
grown as large as they could be made,
twin screws and shafts were used, and
at the same time facilities for making
still larger shafts and screws were per-
fected. So it is in every branch of en-

some one finds way Of overlapping it,
and the limit is placed further ahead.

What Is perhaps the largest theatrical
company that ever Travelled In Texas
will arrive in this city this morning and
Will be seen to-uignt IN the popular sp7c-
tabular extravaganza, Bluebeard, Jr.
The company Ia composed of small
army of actors. stage carpenters AMI
supernumeraries, aud several special
cars are required to transport the large
amount OF scenery which they carry. IL
every house in which they show Tho
stage Is entirely cleared of its scenic
belongings and nothing is shown
but that designed specially for the pro-
duotiCn OF Bluebeard, Jr. So much @;
this is there that Manager GreeuWaIl
has had to employ twenty extra stags
bands TO assist in shifting it.
The play is q musical and spectacular
extravaganza, In which appear some eI-
celIeut singers and trst-rate comedians;
also ballet, led by one OF the most
noted danceus in the country. They
have held the boards at ths
Dulias opera house for four
nights this week, playing to
the full capacity OF the house each night,
and giving universal satisfaction Ut each
performance. The prices ut Dallas
have been City cents, 81 and Sl.j0;
here, owing to Manager GreenwalIB
tirmuess, they will be unchanged, re-
naming at fifty, seveuty-tve cents aud
