OF baby Maggie Eveline, daughter oil
Mr.. and Mrs. p. Noonan, died OF
Scarlet fever Feby 10, 1880, in the
fourteenth month Of her age.
Sleeping. baby Maggie Eva,
Darling beauty thou art sleeping,
While around thy vacant cradle,
We who loved thee. now art weepingt
Sleeping. baby Maggie Eva.
All, We miss the from our side,
For we meet In this world, never.
God hath willed It, thou hast died.
With q hopeful eye, we watch ed thee
Az we would an opening rose,
Watched thee In thy playful waking,
Watch thee In thy soft Rsposa.
And how often thou hast cheercd US,
With thy giecfut little cry.
As we stopped for baby kisses.
Purcst gems beneath the sky.
But, alas! there came fever,
Like wolf around his prey,
And he battled with the y 0ungest
And bore our darling babe away.
An In vain We tried to stay him,
vainly tried her life to save,
Twas her Maker, who had called her
To her home beyond the grave.
Yet, why mourn We for our darling,
For He called her home to rest,
And we know that she Is happy,
Crowned with glory, ever blcst.
II to day, the power were given,
To Call her back to life again,
Who wound raise that crown OF glory,
And call her TO this vale OF sin,
but II help you need to guide you,
Az this vale you paddle through;
Father, mother, sisters, brothers,
She will intercedc for you.
And when lie, who called her, calls you
At Heavens gate, your babe will stand
With arms out-stretched, and sweet voice
tcalling,
She will greet you, In the better lana.
All, twas hard our parting. Maggie,
Yet we hunibly kiss the rod. 20
Now thy soul is with the Angels,
Now thy form beneath the sod.
IN the springtime, while above thee
Creeps the moss rose, and the vine.
Sometmes we will sit beside thee,
weeping, Maggie Evaiine.
Com,

of drainage, and is noted for its pretty
girls. of which goodly number were
to be seen in the business houses and
on the street.
At midnight we once more, after
taking lot of freight, resumed our
journey down the river, and at Z O'Clock
Sunday morning found ourselves in
Fort Madison, a romantic, picturesque
city built on the rolling hills and bluffs
skirting the river, stretching along its
water some four miles. To the south
ern end of the city could be seen the
railroad hospital: on the top of the
high bluffs overlooking the river.
nestled among the trees, standing out
in bold relief against the blue ether Of
Heaven, it indeed looked beautiful. 1t
was Sunday morning, and not a sound
was to be heard to mar the sacredness
of the day, only the warble of birds,
and clear yeals of church bells falling
on the still, pure air. How sweet they
sounded ringing out the welcome of
another Holy day. AT eleven we were
at Montrose, and passed into the canal,
which is twelve miles long, and quite
a novelty to myself, having never ex-
perienced or witnessed (since a small
boy) the entrance and exit of the boats
to canals. At noon we were at Keo-
kuk. and made good our time in seeing
all we could of the city. The after
noon was spent in sitting on tbs deck
and admiring the scenery and towns,
as We fioated down the river. Quincy,
H., was our last landing place until
we reached St. Louie. Having been
informed of it's beautiful scenery be-
fore reaching there, and stopping at
that point from 6 p. NJ. until almost
midnight the captain and I took
drive out to 23d Street, by all of the
principal parks, and fine residences;
and, as to natural scenery, there is
none more beautiful than in that city.
Quincy is built on large hill, and,
from the river to the business portion
of town, is quite rise, and after reach
ing probably $50 feet above the river,
it runs back on a level for miles, and
probably emerges into the Illinois
praries.
AT 7:30 we went to the First Presby-
terIan Church, which was crowded,
aud the attentiyeness of the audience
was quite marked. Thus we spent our
last day and Sunday on the Mary
Norton, arriving Monday Morning at
1890 in the dear old city of st. Louis.
With kindest regards to each reader
of the REGISTER, am, as ever.

Resolutions of the Dykes Club.

DYKES, Tex, July 9.-Believing
that the safety and continuation of
that liberty and freedom bought by
the blood and patriotism of our Revo-
lutionary Fathers can be sustained
and maintained only by strict ad-
herence to the pure principles of De-
| mocracy as taught by Jefferson, Jack
son and their patriotic compeers, be 1t
resolved by this club,
| First-That we demand of the pres
ent Congress of the United States a
| full, free and fair discussion Of all bills
or measures affecting the public inter-
est, that the merits of such measures
may be brought before the people or
tn cir fallacies exposed.
Second-That we heartily condemn
the gag rule inaugurated in the House
by Reed and his associates as tyran-
nical and unpatriOtic and calculated to
prevent the administration of the
wholesome privileges guaranteed by
the Federal Constitution.
Third-That we denonnce all class
legislation as detrimental to the growth
and prosperity of our whole country
and contrary to the genius of republi-
can institutions, enrIching the few at
the expense of the masses. and calcu-
lated to array one section of the coun-
will lead to anarchy, bloodshed and
dissolution of our Union,
Fourth-That we are in favor of
free and unlimited coinage of silver and
the issuance of greenbacks in place of
national bank currency in sufficient
volume to transact the business of the
country, and all moneys issued by au-
thority of Congress be declared by
that body to b. equal with gold and
legal tender for all debts, public and
private.
Fifth-That we are in favor of tariff
for revenue only in sufficient amount
to defray the current expenses of the
government economically administer
ed.
Sixth-That we detest the so-called
Federal election bill as one of the most
damnable outrages that the Republi-
can party has ever attempted to dis
grace the American people with, and
that we cannot command language
sufficient to praise our Demscratic rep
resentatives in Congress for standing
80 firm in defence of American liber-
ties.
Seventh-That we also heartily in
dorse G. G. Vest for his efforts in the
United States Senate in behalf of the
agricultural and laboring classes of
Missouri, and will vote for no one TO
represent our county who is opposed to
his reelection.
| certify the above to be true copy
from our clubs record.

the field. In one part of the field were
some old deadened trees. AS l was
walking. listening and watching for
any coon sign, heard noise near one
of those old trees that sounded like
something had fallen. I went on a
few steps, and heard another of those
noises. I made my way along very
carefully. Right ahead of me [ saw a
coon climb up the corn stalk to the ear
of corn, and get on the ear, which,
with the weight of the coon, would
break the ear from the stalk, and they
would fall to the ground together.
Then the old coon would strip the
husks off, and one of the young coons
would come to eat the corn. Then the
old mother would climb up another
stalk, and so she would repeat the pro-
cess, until all the coons were provided
with supper. AS stood and watched
the family eat their supper, I said to
old Betsey,"i guess we will have some
thing to say about gathering this corn"
So l brought down the old mother at
the crack of my rife. She rolled over
dead; all the rest went up one of those
dead trees as fast as they could go, and
disappeared in large hole in the body
eff the tree. I stood still and loaded
my gun, for / knew in a few minutes
some one of them would stick his head
out to see what was up. / did not
wait long before [ saw ones head ia
the hole. ] drew down on his head
and put bullet between his eyes. As
he fell back inside of the hole, all the
others came scram bling out as fast as
they could, and got out on the limbs.
| loaded and shot as fast as ] could,
and killed coon every shot. until the
last one. 1t had got so dark I could not
see SO well. At the crack of my rifle,
you never heard such squealing as
that coon made. He would scream and
croke and squeal, for l had hit his foot.
The way he did go from limb to limb,
holding that fore paw, and just like a
human would have held his hand.
Then he would sit up and hold the
wounded paw with the we'll one, and
sway his body back and forward. 1t
made me feel badly. felt as though
l had shot human. / hurried and
loaded my gun. The next shot / put
the bullet through his head. How
much animals are like humans; or,
how much humans are like animals
which is it? T. p. r.

A Trip Down the Mississippi.
LIVINGSTON, Mon. July IS, 1890

| LIVINGSTON, Mon. July 10, 1871.
Ed. Register-Having been called
away to look after the practice of the
Park Coal and Coke Company, at the
| southern. border of the sta te, it has
been impossible for me to complete my
little narrative until this, but will en-.
deavor now to complete my trip dow L
the Father of Waters.
| Since my last writing 1 have spent
a couple of weeks in the heart of the
grandest scenery on this Hemisphere
and at some future date, when time
permits, will give you little sketch
of my stay in that coal region.
| But to resume my story. Our last
point of mention was Dubuque, Iowa.
Clinton and Albany were the next
two towns of Importance. We laid an
hour at each place. giving us an op-
| portunity to get out and stretch our
selves and see the towns. Like all
those passed, they were picturesque,
lively towns. In Iowa no saloons
were seen, but "origonal package"
stands were quite numerous; however
there were no persons seen lying
around the places drunk, or lounging
around drinking. Everything seemed
to be neat and clean, and none of the
foul odors which are so characteristic
to the open saloon, were emitted from
these places to the disgust of the pass
er-by as is sometimes the case with
the former. In both places numerous
spires lowered above the town, glisten-
ing in the sunlight, pointing out to
passer-by the places of sacred worship.
From these little towns we glide by
numerous other towns, until, reaching
Rock Island, we stopped six hours, ar
no opportunity of sightseeing to slip
by without being well utilized. The
street cars, motor railways and incline
roads afforded us conveyance to the
various points of interest. After dark
came on, and, firing of sightseeing,
we all sought refuge in our floating
hotel.
The next morning, on awaking, we
found ourselves at New Boston, a live
ly little village built on the western
bluffs of the Mississippi. Around this
place the scenery is grand, the river
making a great bend to the east, with
its bluffs of sandstone overhung with
ivy and ferns, while along the Illinois
side the fertile praries sloping down to
the waters edge, with their broad
fields of wheat and oats, and here and
there a clump Of oaks or hickories
clothed in their new spring foliage
making a picture to attract the atten-
ton and gain the admiration of any
person who has any love for Nature
especially so 10 anyone who has just
emerged from the grand peaks and
barron mountains of the Rockies, where
no such feast of colors, save forests of
pine and spruce and fir, fall on the res
tina of the admrer At 5 O'Clock we
arrived at Burlington, Saturday eve

are thronged with people, going hther
and thither. The city is built on a
