Bertha Nay Irory in st. Louis Republic
Obi chill OF the Winter, why could you not
spare herr
Why lift the sweet song bird from out of her
nest?
Why freeze with your death kiss the voice
that was sacredi
Why silence the song of the heart in her breasts
OH chill of the Winter. you surely leave
Too few in Earth's robe that you need steal
this one:
Too few consultations remain in the heavens.
Then why dim the Star which high place had
won?
Oh, chill of the Winter, right royal your
scepter,
A brave King you come with the crowned New
Year.
Then why did you snatch a brave Queen from
the Earthland,
Whose throne was attained all undaunted nv
fear?
Oh! chill Of the Winter, how could you, how
Enwrap in your ice arms so awful. so still.
The form of warm genius, the form in whose
bosom
There beat the brave heart ne'er in life knew
chill.
Oh! myriad song-birds who clustered together
And rested within her bright heart to re-
And proud of their home in the full of their
gladness,
Would sing all their gold through the might
of her voice.
And did ye not. song birds, when Death came to
claim b 7,
Sing to the Relentless your pleading Forbearg
And did ye not WOO Him 10 spare her who loved
you
And strike you not voiceless in very despair?
But even the plea of the song bird was fruitless;
Nor beauty, nor genius may win reprieve
From that too stern Monarch who turns but an
ice breath,
And the victims must go to the arms that re-
ceive.
But may we not feel that her sweet voice cleft
heaven,
And may we not know tits not silent-O, Joy (!
But has reached supreme and an endless for
ever,
And W on q new honor no death can destroyf
For may we not know that she sings In that
heaven,
The realm where rise ever loud anthems
grand touei
And surely we know that the Star sprang to
Angel.
And God brought his song-bird just nearer bis
throne.

"Cleopatra's" Asps Escape.

Several days ago Marcus Mayer went about
securing a good, healthy asp, says the New
York Herald, to be used in Miss Fanny Daven-
ports production of Cleopatra" which was
made known at the Fifth Avenue theater Tues
day evening.
AS real asp is being used by Nine. Bern
hardt. Mr.. Mayer saw no reason why Miss
Davenport should not also have live one and
not trust TO properly afair In a William
street shop Mr. Mayer found Just what he
wanted, and, instead Of buying one asp, ne pur-
chased two, so as TO have as he said, an under
study for the part. When the asps were pro
duced that afternoon at rehearsal they nearly
frightened some of the company out of their
wits.
After the rehearsal Miss Davenport placed
the asps in little box-they were both bout q
foot and hall long-and brought them to her
rooms 10 the Westminster, so as to accuStom
herself 10 them. Saturday evening Miss Daven-
port and her husband, Melbourne Mcdowell,
went out to pay visit. The first thing Miss
Daven ort did upon her return was to run to
curled up nice and warmly. But they were
not. They mad made their escape and dlsap-
peared.
Visions of the asps making their way upstairs
and killing the children of the family there
made Mss Davenport and Mr. 4cDowell any
thing but ha Ply. They searched for several
hours, but could not find their snakeships.
Finally Miss Davenport came across one in
cupboard in tue kitchen, and about three
back of a pile of books. BY this time the
roums looked as if cyclone had struck them.
Ine asps we're then placed in a secure place,
and hereafter Miss Davenport will see that they
do not escape from their resting places and
make her-life unhappy for another long night.

An Operator ordered What He LIKED.


Many have been the laughable mistakes made
by telegraph operators in transmitting mes
sages, says the the Hartford CourGnt but it is
seldom that one is recorded so amusing in its
consequences occurred in the summer to a
gentleman of this city.
He was spending his vacation at the shore. A
dance was 20 be given one evening, and, as Mr.
- expected his brother down from this city
to attend the festivities he betnougnt himself
OF tue excellent plan of sending to him for some
flowers, which are always acceptable to the
young ladies on such occasions.
The scheme was no sooner conceived than il
was put into execution Tn, telegraph office
was sought, and tine following message was
written and directed to Mr.. IS brothen in
Hartford:
Bring three dozen Bon Silene roses.''
With tranquil mind and happy heart Mr.
- awaited the simultaneous arrival of his
brother, the roses and the event vi evening
But meanwhile the telegraph operator had got
in his work, either at one end of thu line OF
the other, and 50 far no one was the wiser
Mr.. S plansi for the distribution of the
roses were doubtless well settled, and he eagerly
awaited his brothers arrival. At length the
latter hove In sight, but, goodness gracious
what was the matter with him? He was loaded
down with bundles, aud out OF his pockets
peeped still Others. In fact, it seemed to be
only with difficulty that he could get along at
all, so weighed down was he with mysterious
packages
After partially recovering from his surprise
MIR. - demanded to know what in the world
his brother was swearing at The latter, as
soon as he had breath enough, demanded ia his
turn, IN an injured tone of voice, to know WHY
he had sent for so many. II brought all 1
and half"
so many whats" returned Mr.. -. What
have you got there, anyway
The brothers suspicious began to be aroused,
and he said nothing but drew forth the tele-
gram which he had received:

In one Of Chicago's small suburbs, says the
Herald, are two church denominations, one a
Baptist and the other Methodist AS will hap
pen, there arose a rivalry between the two as to
which should be the more popular and have the
larger congregation. Both sides did their best
to keep the lead, but for some reason, either
because the Metuodists had the more fluent
speaker or because the brethren were the more
energetic, Trey were plainly leaving the Bap-
lists FAR behind. In the town resided a young
man VINO had Oeen considered a pretty tough
individual. and it CHANGED that the Baptist mia
lister an he were one day thrown together and
DecAme acquainted. The result of SCI eral talks
was that the young fellow came to the Baptist
minister one day and said he had made up his
mind to leave his evil ways and join the churc D,
The minister was delighted, of course, and
grasped him by the hand He said to him. how
ever, that ere were some things he must ac-
knowledge before he could be admitted into
the fold. The young man confessed he had
been great sinner. and said he believed that
it was ouly through the Savior he could be re-
deemed. The preac ler rather pressed the point

ssvannah,s public suiIdipr Rln.


Representative Lester does not neglect
the interests Of his constituents. he worked
uuceasingly until be got bill through the
House increasing the appropriation for Sa-
vannahs public building from S240,-
900 10 s40O, 600. The ball went TO the Senate,
spd there was some apprehension felt here
that it would not be passed by that body,
and that all the work that had been done in
its behalf woul1 amount 20 nothing, since
If it failed 10 pass at this session 1t would be
no further advanced than il Il had not been
introduced into congress at all.
When at home during the holidays Mr.
Lester said that he intended TO give his
attention To the bill just as soon as he re-
turned to Washington. and be expressed the
opinion that the Savannah people would
hear some good news with respect to it.
The good news was contained in our dis
patches yesterday. The bill has passed the
Senate, and IL it has not already been
sent 10 the President it will be within a
very few days Mr.. Lester says that he
thinks the President will sign it, nstwith-
standing the fact that he has been vetoing
public building bills recently.
There are good reasons why be should
sign it. A postoffice building is needed in
this city very greatly; also a room for the
United States court. a public building has
Deen begun, but the site of 1t and the size of
it we're not wholly satisfactory. and work
upon It, therefore, was stopped. II the
President signs the bill it is probable that
another site will be chosen at once. II it
should be determined not to change the site
the plans for the building on the present
site will be changed, and building erected

Emma Abbott's Wish to be Crem ated.

Emma Abbott's Wish to be Crem ated.
1t is believed that the body of Emma Alb
bott will be cremated at the crematory at
Pittsburg, and that her ashes will be placed
in the tomb in Gloucester, Mass, which
contains the remains of her husband. Her
body arrived in Chicago, the city of her
birth, Thursday, and public services were
held there yesterday. However, no steps
will be taken toward cremating her body
until her will, which is in the possession of
her lawyers in New York, is opened. If
desire is expressed in her will for cremation
it will be complied with If nothing is said
about the matter, her body will be placed
in the tomb with that of her husband.
When she was in this city year ago she
said to friends Of hers here that she intended
to leave directions that her body should be
cremated. Although she had no fear OF
death, apparently, she had the greatest
horror of being buried.
1t seems that her attention was directed
to cremation as a method of disposing of
the dead as long ago as 1870 At that tim 9
the LeMoyne crematory at Washington,
Pa, was built And three years ago, in
company with Miss Annandale, she
visited the crematory at Pittsburg. At that
time she told Miss Annandale that she had
formed resolution to be cremated in the
crematory in that city, and it is said that a
few weeks before her death she spoke Of her
intention to be cremated as thing that she
had finally settled.
There is much to be said in favor of Gre
nation, and while that method of disposing
Of the dead has not proven to be as accept
| able in this country as it was thought it
would when the first crematory was
established, yet the number Of bodies
cremated each year is steadily increasing.
Anent the Senate debate on Mr.. Stewards
free coinage amendment to the finance COM
mittee's bill the Baltimore Sun observes that
the arguments exhibited a remarkable posi-
tiveness of conviction on both sides. Oppo-
nents of the free coinage of silver dollars
worth IS cents, to be legal tender for 100
cents, were able to cite the experience of
this and other countries in sup
/ port of their position. But the sill
yer senator's were stronger in prophecy
than in history. They laughed at the fears
of the practical financiers They made
merry over supposed flaws in their logic
They grew angry at thought Of the malig-
nant doings of the gold bugs, who have for
eighteen years been plotting against "the
money of the people," They promised
blessings from the free coinage of silver
dollars, provided they do not exceed their
present weight. Not a word was sail for
the coinage of silver dollars worth intrins-
ically 100 cents. But the silver senators did
one good thing. They denounced the
scheme to Issue 500, 900, 900 of new bonds
with which to buy up existing bonds at
heavy premium-practically increasing the
public debt to 81 ,O00, 100000.
