THE POEM.

I stood on the oceans sandy beach,
And with a reed ! wrote upon the
sands these words:
agnes, love theep
But the winds came and the waves
\ rolled mountains high,
And blotted out the fair impression.
Cruel waves, treacherous sand, fragile
reed
No longer will / trust to thee;
But from the highest mountain peal
III pluck the tallest pine
And, dipped in the crater Of Vesuvius,
with it III write
Upon the high and FURNISHED heavens
these tender words
"Kieke has the finest and best selected
stock Of unauthorized grocer
les. At lowest prices in town"
And / would like 10 see any dog-gone
wave wash that out.

Mrs. Catherine Clark, the widow Of
the late John Clark, who was killed at
the Injuries mine by cave, was today
sdJudged insane by the probate judge
and will be taken to the asylum to
morrow. The unfortunate woman
has not been in her right mind since
the news was conveyed to her, a few
months ago, of the death Of her hus-
band. Her malady partakes of q reli-
gious craze which is a constant call
upon her Maker in loud words to com
fort her. With proper care it is
thought she will recover. She leaves
three boys here who are growing into
manhood and are hard working young
men. The sum of $1,000 is due the
widow from the A o. U. w, of which
order Mr. Clark was a member.

What Will be Done at the Gathering of
Base Ball Men.

The brotherhood clans are gathering at
Cleveland in force for their long-talked of
spring meeting, and there will probably soon
be deluge Of talk from there about contract
breakers and down-trodden ball players. The
league will undoubtedly come in for its share
Of abuse and the shouts Of exultation over the
ten-club difficulty will rise with resounding
echoes. The brotherhood are nothing if not
boastful, but they are nevertheless secretly
worried over the pugnacious persstency Of the
league in plastering their members with writs
and the possibility Of an unfavorable outcom
to the suits now pending A schedule will
probably be peacefully adopted and after some
bitter talk about the recreants who have
the brotherhood will adjourn to wait for de-
velopments in the courts of law,
The following from the Philadelphia In
Quirer is interesting:
Al johnson of Cleveland is quoted as saying:
''The brotherhood contract stipulates that we
shall carry the players for the first year. At
the end of that time, of course il their services
are not up to requirement, We can drop them,
otherwise they continue with u.s.
So Is this: Buck said everything looked lovely
in New York, with the brotherhood hanging
away out of sight. White thought things were
looking quite favorably in Buffalo, but he was
not carried away with enthusiasm. When
asked what kind Of a team he and Rowe have
he said: Most people seem to think it won't
amount to much, but we are pretty well salts
hed with 1t. We expect to fool some people
next summer"
John Wards case will be tried in New York
on the oath Of this month.
Hallman's case will probably be decided in
the Philadelphia court on Saturday.

NO INTERNATIONAL BOAT RACE.
Impossible for Yale to Row Q Race In
England.

The question Of an international boat race
between Yale and English oarsmen is an i'm
possibility for this year at least Capt Allen of
the Yale varsity crew says: "There is not the
slightest chance at present that we will have
such race this year. l had great hopes last
fall that there might be one, but they were
completely blasted after I talked with Messrs.
Cook and Adee on the subject. They would
like to see a race between Yale and the English
universities, but both at present regard the
matter as being out Of the question.
"All efforts to arrange race have hitherto
been futile. The English crews will n OF keep
in training until after the Yale-Harvard race
and in order to have an international contest it
would be ecessary for this years Yale crew to
come back to college next fall and begin train
ing at once, keeping it up until short time
after Christmas, when they could 60 to Eng
land and get ready for race with the victo
rious eight Of the English university race
which comes off about the last of March. The
difficulties in the way of such plan. however,
are easily seen. In the first place the Ameri-
can crew would be compelled to lose almost a
whole college year. not to speak of the time,
labor and expense which would necessarily be
connected with such undertaking. 1t il
about the same with the English crews and I
think it will be a long time before such race
will take place"

The explosion in the Morsa colliery in CLAM

known in Great Britain. One hundred an six
miners are entombed and communication with
them is impossible fer the present. 1t is feared

large force Of miners at work when the terrible
shock and mufied roar conveyed to their fam
lies the dread news Of disaster. All the hoist
ing apparatus was temporarily disabled. but
was soon got in working order by the engineer 8
and the cage was lowered An anxious crow

As fast as the engine could work it was lowered
and hoisted till 200 men had been rescued
When the last car load came up and il was
known that no one awaited its return shrek

PROLIFIC IN COMMITTEES.
VIII Too Many Cooks Spoil Chicago's
Worlds Fair Broth?

If the city Of Chicago only has a. many mil
lion dollars as it has worlds fair committees IL
will be able to erect all the necessary exposi-
ton buildings and still have big surplus. But
although there are undoubted and indlsputable
advantages in a large force of workers there is
also a great deal of truth in the proverb which
refers to the multiplicity of cooks having
good deal to do with the inferiority Of the
bouillon. When Chicago made its appearance
on the scene of action as candidate for the
worlds fair it was represented hero by COM
mittee directed by ex-Representative Geo. r.
Davis aud Adlai E. Stevenson. They wero
hustiers. and to them must undoubtedly be
awarded the greater portion Of the credit. A
little later Gen. John c. Black and ex-Civil
Service Commissioner Thoman came along,
and they too did lots Of good work. They all
tolled together and with lots of success. for
before any of the many other Chicagoans came
along they had secured every vote that Chicag o
could possibly secure on the first ballot.
THEN CAME THE CRITICAL PERIOD
when the House was to make known its prefer
ence, and before the vote (Which the quartet
before mentioned had gathered together) down
swooped crowd from the windy city, They
went away as soon as Chicago was selected and
returned home In triumph. They were greeted
as the men who made the victory possible.
Within few days another committee made its
appearance and it has gone ahead without con-
sultlng either Davis or Stevenson. Just now it
is busily engaged in telling the Senate commit
tee on the quadro-centennial what a great place
Chicago is and how much of a success this par
ticular committee can make of the fair, while
the men who did the work and won the fight
are kicking themselves because they ever had
anything to do with the matter. By-and-by
another committee will come along and will
supersede all previous organizations. Such
action may not benefit ChIcago's cause. but it
is testimony to the fecundity Of the windy city
in the matter OF committees

CAPTURED WHILE ASLEEP.
Reported Lynching of Two COlored Men
Who are Charged With Murder.

Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun
Sunday week Chas. Dabney and Wetherford
Irving, two negro desperadoes, shot and killed
an old negro, Jesse Stanton, at Mill Creek,
Mercer county, WA, and on the following
day Constable Belcher went to arrest the men,
but no sooner had he made known his purpose
than Dabney, who was hiding in the loft Of an
old house, fired on Belcher, killing him in
stantly. The negroes made good their escape.
A large posse Of white and colored men started
out on hunt of the murderers and spent q
whole week in the mountains looking for them,
without success until Friday night at a late
hour, when they were found in bed at q farm
house some distance from the scene of the muir
der. While asleep the officers rushed in upon
them, and after hard struggle succeeded in
arresting the two. Strong threats of lynching
were made and in order to avoid trouble the
officers and guards. by circuitous route, sue
ceeded in placing Dabney and Irving in Jail
at Princeton Saturday. One thousand dollars
had been offered for their arrest, which was
made by officers of Raleigh county. Word
reached Charleston yesterday morning that
Dabney and Irving were lynched, but owing to
the wires being in trouble the truth Of the re-
port cannot be verified. The posse from
Bramwell in their search arrested Oscar Fulks,
a negro, who killed a man in Clinch Valley
four months ago. The negro had been ar
rested, but broke Jail. He was turned over to
the Virginia authorities.

Italian Cow Bows.

Count Premol last night gave grand recep-
ton at his palace in Rome in honor Of his
cousin, Prince Jerome Napoleon, which was at
tended by the upper ten thousand Of Rome.
The diplomatic bodies of the Quirinal and Vat
lean were largely represented The event of
the evening was the entrance Of Buffalo Bill
and five Indian chiefs in gala costume. The
Indians were naturally much dazzled by the
beauty Of the brilliant toilettes Of the ladies,
who addressed many questions to them, which
they answered in broken English. Colonel
Cody speaks with enthusiasm Of the courtesy
he has met with in Rome.
Buffalo Bill left Rome yesterday for Florence.
On Saturday two Italian COW boys belonging to
Prince Raspoh came to ride two Of Cody's
bronehos. After struggling half an hour with
the horses-the time given by Cody was ten
minutes--one Of the horses was ridden. The
second horse it was impossible for the Italian
TO mount and be had to give up after trying
half an hour. This cannot be called much of q
victory over the American COW boy.

European Servant Girls for Florida.

The board of immigration of Florida have
taken in hand the difficult problem of supply
ing domestic servants to house holders in that
state. They have agreed to supply 1000 SER
want girls with places in that state at wages
ranging from sc to s1O per month. These
girls are to come from Norway and Sweden.
That there might be no hitch in the ar
rangement the board has asked the Secretary
Of the Treasury if there are any provisions of
the alien contract labor law which will prevent
the girls from coming into this country. The
board explains that no contract is made in ad-
vance and that the law excerpts domestic SER
wants from its operation. The fact that the
board will when they arrive here provide for
them removes them from the danger Of be-
coming public charge. The board is COM
posed OF Gov. Fleming, Secretary of State

NEW STAMPS AND POSTAL CARDS.
Complaint That They are Both Of In
fefi0r Quality.

Complaints have been received at the Post
Once department in regard to the quality OF
the postal cards now issued to the public. 1t
Is charged that the paper Is too much like
blotting paper. Third Assistant Postmaster
General Hazen told STAR reporter yesterday
that the matter was being investigated by the
department. He said that they were not alto
gsther satisfied with the paper and they were
trying to find out if it falls below the standard.
The contractor, Mr.. Al Daggett of Brooklyn.
was at the department yesterday. He said TO
. STAB reporter that he thought the govern
ment was getting better quality of cards than
over before.
THE NEW STAMPS TEAR EASILY.
There has been also some complaint as to
the new postage stamps, it being claimed that
the stamps tear easily and this is attributed to
the quality Of the paper. Mr.. Madison Davis,
the chief clerk of the third assistants Office.
has compared the paper used for the new
stamps with the old paper and says that he
finds no difference IN the quality. He says
that while the designs of the stamps have been
changed the paper used has not been changed
He attributes the tearing Of the stamps to the
difference in the size of the old and new
stamps rather than to the inferior quality of
the paper.

Virginia's Increasing Revenues.

alton the legislature, at its recent session, i'm
posed . tax upon all charters granted, whether
by that body or by the courts. 1t Is under
stood that this source will increase the reve-
nues by about else, 600 year. A state finance
officer says that its receipts lately have been
increased $4,000 to eco, 1000 Heretofore no
tax has been required on these charters. The
result was that in order to avoid the tax in
other states the corporations desiring charters
have come to Virginia from other states. This
has been the case especially with New Workers.
