FARM AND HOME.
SOME DAY-SOMEwHERE.
Ida LEWIS WATSON


Somewhere, we SAVIOUR thoughts go out
Beyond he tidal drifting
Some day,-we sigh. and lift our eye
To where the clouds are rflng:
" hat matter what to-day has been,
Or what its night Is bringing.
Tomorrow will be lust in sight
OF palms and choral singing!
Some day-somewhere! We close our eyes
In dreams of Mornings beauty
In that far land where peace takes place
OF cropping after duty
Of cropping biindly in the dark
Abe it with purpose blended
May be the faith that faln casts out
The doubts that life'S defended.
Oh, Lamb of God, whose feet have pressed
The cup of anguished sorrow,
Whose sad Gethsemane our rest
Hath earned for iIfes Tomorrow
The chalice that, in fever-thlrst
OF crimson wine we We tasted,
Ger pains of human sin aCcurSt
From brlm TO dreg was wasted.
The cup down-cast, our feet have trod
The bIood-stained ways of duty,
While our hearts have dreamed, o, Son of God
OF lions radiant beauty!
The stately lilies lift their silent breath
Of vague and mystic perfume, faint and
sweet
There is a strange suggestiveness of death,
OF folded hands, aud ever-hush-e ed feet.
OF majesty that sets all earthly things aside,
With the supremest vIct'ry over strife;
The grand Inconsistencies of time and tide,
That strange, strange knowledge; Everlasting
life.
81 am the resurrection and the ife;'' the lilies
fair
Intensity the silence still and sweet,
There is no death,-in other lands-Some-
where
Beside the water ripping at his feet.
They whom our singing lips have kissed as
dead
Do walk in rapture, radiant in bliss
sThey who believe shall never die, He said
Somewhere in other lands than thisD
The light within the East doth grow more
deep
And silence-and the lilies hushed and fair
There death-it is but sleep,
And Everlasting life Somewhere, Somewhere.

Mr.. McGunnigle Is Not TO Be Manager of
Local Team.

Mr.. McGunnigle Is Not to Be Manager of
Local Team.
Local baseball patrons will be surprised to
learn that aftec all W. II. McGunnigle has
not been and will not be engaged as mana
ger of the local ball team, Negotiations were
declared off yesterday.
Mr.. McGunnigle met the directors of the
club and it was soon apparent that there
was misunderstanding about the terms. A
telegram had been sent Mr.. McGunnigle
asking his terms, and he replied, naming
them as S1sG0 and $500 in advance. These
were accepted, but yesterday it was found
that the directors expected these terms to
be for 10 months, and Mr.. McGunnigle meant
only the balance of the season
Matters could not be reconciled on this
point, and Mr.. McGunnigle stated that he
Providence. He then offered to engage for
the balance of the season at the same rate of
salary that he received at Brooklyn last
year, viz: at the rate of 5000 for seven
months. This was declined, the directors
offering to pay him at the rate of 50 200 for u
months. All negotiations were then de-
clared at an end. Mr. McGunnigle will stay
here until tomorrow and will likely apply
for the management of the Athletic club at
Philadelphia.
The directors will meet to-day and discuss
the situation. 1t is to be hoped that some
thing definite will be done, and the best
thing to do at present is to hand over to
Manager Hanlon entire control of the
team and fix matters mp in way
that offcIous people can in no way
interfere with him. 1t may be that even
more than this might be done to save the
reputation of the club. Ii this is done, then
Hanlon will be absolutely responsible. and
time will soon tell whether or not he is the
right man in the right place. If he is, keep
him: if he is not, make change. That's all
there is about it. And it may not be out of
place here to remark that the man among
the officials who has the best practical
knowledge of the game has not by any
means the authority that he should have.
The gentleman referred to is Mr.. Scandrett.

IT BOBS UP SERENELY.
THE SHARON CASE AGAIN BROUGHT
TO TIE PUBLIC NOTICE.

A Widow Who Demands Fifty Thousand
Dollars for Letters She Holds They
Were Written by Justice Field to a
Lawyers Manager.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.l
SAN FRANCISCO, July 23.-Publication
was made to-day of the fact that bundle of
letters written by Justice Field and Francis
j. Newlands, Senator Sharon's son-in-law,
and bearing on peculiar procedure in the
Sharon divorce case, were in the hands
of Mrs. Sarah Mitchell, the
landlady of Newlands' confidential
manager, Charles Livingstone. 1t is said
the woman wants 500, 900 for the delivery of
these letters, but it is very doubtful whether
she has realized anything. There is no
question that many shady things occurred
in the Sharon divorce trial, and that Sena-
tor Sharon spent money like water to de-
feat Sarah Althea
His dying injunction to the heirs was
that he would haunt them if they ever al
lowed one cent to go to the woman who had
cut short his own days by, scandal and
worry. He also enioins upon them to spare
no expense in defeating political as
pirations of Judge Sullivan, who de-
livered the decision which gave Sarah
Althea the rights of wife. That I'M junction
was carried out religiously. A powerful
Sharon interest was exerted throughout the
State wheI Sullivan ran for Judge of the
Supreme Court. All the resources of the
corrupt lobby, of which Boss Buckley was
at the head, were used in the contest, and
the result was that Sullivan, though very
popular, was beaten.
Livingstone, during this contest, was
manager of the Palace Hotel and knew
much that was going on. About two years
ago he was deposed from his place by New
lands. Justice Field was Livingstone's
strong personal friend and wrote several
letters saying he would see that Newlands
treated Livinstone squarely. 1t is these
letters and correspondence between New
lands and Livingstone that Mrs. Mitchell
holds. She demands $4,000 from the
Sharon estate for their delivery, as she de-
clares they are worth that money should she
deliver them to Sarah Althea.
She hints that they reveal many compro-
missing transactions in the Sharon case
especially after the Senator's death, but
young Sharon and Newlands both assert
that no such letters are in existence.
Justice Field also says that she may
print any letters of his which she holds.
Mrs. Mitchell is the widow of mining
man who left several valuable properties
They were badly involved, and Livingstone
rescued them from ruin. He also aban-
doned his wife and lived at Mrs. Mitchell's
house until he died. He was buried
in her family plot. He used her
money as freely as his own, and
when he died he evidently gave her to
understand that the Sharon estate owed him
a large sum for valuable political services
he had rendered The case excites much at
tention here, because of the mystery that
has always hung around the Sharon case
and because of the general belief that the
Court was influenced by Sharon money.

LOST AN ARM AT PISAQUA.
Captain Dodge Tells How Balmaceda's
Powder Magazine Was Destroyed.

Powder Magazine Was Destroyed.
NEW YORK, July 23.-Captain Dodge,
who arrived to-day in the British ship Cor
inga, from Pisaqua, Chile, lost his arm by
the premature explosion of dynamite cart
ridge with which he intended to kill mack
erel to keep his crew from starving. ''We
arrived in Pisaqua," said the Captain, 'dur-
ing the latter part of last March. Our stock
of provisions was nearly exhausted. The
town was in state of great excitement 1t
was dangerous to go ashore. Battles were
constantly taking place between the troops
of Balmaceda and the party opposed to him.
We could not communicate with anyone. I
attempted to go ashore in my boat one
morning. I wanted to enter my ship and
get some provisions. When only a short
distance from the ship bullets began to
whiz by us. One passed through the top of
my slouch hat. 1t was sudden and unex-
pected outbreak. We put back to the
ship.
After using all the food there was on
board, the Captain attempted to secure fish
by dynamite with the result that he lost an
arm. The Captain described the storming
of Pisaqua by the Congessionalists. He
said:
''The first gun fired did great damage
The cannoneer was once resident of Pisa
qua. He knew the location of Balmaceda's S
magazine. Directly after the first cannon
was discharged there was one of the most
terrific explosions L ever heard. 1t sounded
like the discharge of 1000 cannons.

flying debris. Hatches had been torn from
ships, masts were shattered and skylights
were smashed. All was confusion in Pisa
qua. The first cannon had hit the mark. 1t
struck the powder magazine, which was
filled with tons and tons Of dynamite. The
explosion killed hundreds ofpeople. Houses
were wrecked for miles around"
