SnE YoNp THE SUNSET.

The road that passed his fathers door
= He thought stretched on forevermore,
Through fragrant wales of tangled grass
Der many misty mountain pass,
Out into wonders unexpressed
Beyond the cloudlands of tho west,
Through lands and cities OF renown.
TO where tho mighty sun goes down.
And SO he left his fathers door
And said, II win return no more.n
he Travelled forth beyond the bridge,
He climbed the lofty mountain ridge,
He passed the river and the town
To find out where the sun went down;
But when he sank at close of day,
The sunset still was far away
He trod through many a wiud-swept glen;
In mighty towns he mixed with men;
The breath Of many an alien breezs
Tossed him DER unfamiliar seas;
He breathed the spicy gallo that blows
From Southern archipelagoes.
And in the quiet Eastern calm
He sought sweet sleep beneath the palm.
But when he looked at close of day,
The sunset still was far away.
he thought to leave his fathers door
And travel on forevermore.

Kept on his unfamiliar way!
Deep versed in lands n manlof men,
A universal citizen.

He stood before his fathers door
Though many years his father slept
! Upon the mountain side unvept-
De stood there wrinkled, worn and brown
He stood there rs the sun went down.
And in the twilight dim ant gray
The sunset was not far away.
Out from the many millions hurlel
he sank down weary of the world.
With all his tired journey DER
10 die beside his fathers door.
And said, sad smile on his brow,

"Where is this 5-cent barber shop ?p
said an ancient gentleman with, a
grizzly beard of about q weeks growth
and with hair-caressed collar, aa he
stopped near dusty barber's pole on
Tehama street, near fourth yesterday
afternoon.
Here you are. sir. Stop right in;
you're next, sir" called O CHEEKY voice
from on open door. The hairy gentle
man assembled the three creaking stairs
that led to the door, crossed the bend
ing veranda, and was then ushered into
the "barbor shop" by very clean
looking man, whose eyes twinkled with
mirth, and whose lips were continually
stretched i'll quiet smiles. It was ONLY
small shop; Scent shop, in fact,
and it was evident that it was shay
ing shop to which men went because
they needed O shave and not because
they wanted to enjoy o nap in soft
chair. The chair itself was quite nm
institution. Once upon fine It
might have been new, but that must
have been when the water came up to
Montgomery street. Although it was
battered and worn, and though the
stufiing did protest against further
service, and had shaved its way
through the green upholstering, still
it was better than one would expect I'd
see in nickel-limit establishments Al
small wavy- glass mirror hung upon the
wall in front of the chair, and in the
corner of the room, on an old "whatl
not" stand, was razor. Upon a
washstand were water-basin, O lamp
and shaving mug filled with lather.
On the floor near the washstand was q
pitcher of cold water.
The victim with the grizzly beard
left his hat in the hall, climbed into
the chair, closed his eyes and prepared
for the sacrifice. The merry barber
lathered him well, then scraped him
scientifically, rubbed French chalk
over the old fellows jaws, combed his
hair and turned him out as good as
new.
Haven't drawn drop of blood
yet, said the barber, rs he flashed
his razor through the mir and yelled
"Nextp ut young laborer who
was falling asleep in one of the two
chairs.
How do you expect to make it pay 2"
asked Chronicle reporter, who had
dropped in.
"Well, 1 calculate there are from
10, 600 to Is, 900 men in this town who
are pretty hard up. Some time they
will oil want to shave. Cost 'em only
q nickel. This is only my second day.
I've got no gas, but I'll light that
lamp, put it on chair, and there YOU
are."
do You give the victims life insur-
ance policies ?"
ooh, no; they're oil right. Razor
may pull little, but that's all right.
Well get along. rent the house;
rent out the other three rooms, and 1
sleep here in the shop. Furnish clean
towels, too. Some fellows are particu-
lnr. you know. Drop in again"
The 5-cent barber is named Richards.
He is bright man. and is certainly
possessed of funny disposition, for
Judging from his ever-apparent smile,
he seems to think the whole thing a

PROMISING OUTLOOK
For Legislation for Utah Terri
tory in the Next Congress.
THE WORK OF GAME AND WEST
Senator Carey, Of Wyoming, Says the West
is for Harrison-The West Opposed
to Free Silver.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-T Special tele-
gram to THE HERALD. THE most of the
statesmen who were brought here by the
recent session Of Congress have taken their
flight or are preparing to do so. Among
those who remain are Ex-Governor West,
of Utah. l saw the governor at the Riggs
house this morning, and he is looking well
and is apparently at peace with himself and
the world at large. L asked him when he
would return to Salt Lake. He said about
the 1st of May, but he did not know how
long he would remain. He regards the
outlook for Utah legislation next winter as
unusually promising.
In this prediction quite agree with the
governor, but I don't think that his
presence here will do much to bring it
about. It certainly did not benefit Utah
one iota il the F'ifty-frst Congress. Dele
gate Game, on the other hand, is personally
popular with his associates, and with a
Democratic House he will be able to &C
complish great deal where a Republican
House would grudge him, as it habitually
does all Democrats, every penny it appro-
PIRATES forhis territory. Yes, the more
think oft, the more satisfied am that the
outlookds promising. But it will be Mr..
Caine and not the representative of the
chamber. of commerce who will secure the
desired result.

hoarsely cheering crowds OF people, eXclt-
eddy waving hats, handkerchief, sticks and
umbrellas. Calamity, coolly,. without out
ward sign OF exhaustion, the contestlng
crews tugged at their oars with the utmost
brnliancy and nerve. The struggle IN the
last quarter mile of the course will be long
remembered in the aquatic world. 1t was
simply magnificent. Oxford had all the
work she could do cut out for her. AS the
boats rounded Tarn's bend of the river
Cambridge was rowing pluckily and with
plenty of strength, but Oxford was over

The Galley Court. Martial.

OMAHA, March 21.-Captain Galley, in
his defense in the court-martial trial to-day,
introduced document which throws new
light on the finding of the court-martial of
which he was convicted in 1880. In that
trial Captain Galley was convicted of
cowardice for retreating before the fire of
a small band of Indians in the Idaho noun
tains. Captain Galley introduced a letter
from Judge Advocate General Dunn to the
secretary Of war, on the strength Of which
President Hayes set aside the finding of the
court-martial In his letter, Dunn stated
that Galley was in an pneAplored country
in the heart of q caiion. where there was no
chance for escape on either side, when fired
upon by the hostile Indians. He knew
nothing of the force of the enemy, and
there was nothing left for him to do but re-
treat. The Judge acknowledgement held
there was nothing in the evidence to sus-
tain the charge of cowardice, and recon-
mended that the finding be overruled. 1t
was upon this recommendation that Presi-
dent Hayes acted. Captain Galley being
unable to get from Washington the papers
which he claimed would show he had been
disabled for active field service for more
than two years, an adjournment was taken
until Monday,

Prominent Canadians to Visit washington

TORONTO Ont, March 21.-The Globes
Ottawa special says: Sir Charles Upper,
minister of finance; Mr.. Foster and Sir
John Thompson. minister of justice, are
ready to start for Washington at any mo-
mont to have an informal talk over the
question of reciprocity with Canada with
Secretary Blaine and the British minister
1t appears that Secretary Blaine has given
1t to be understood that he will not recon-
mend the appointment of commissioner
On behalf of the United States until he is
furnished with some substantial proof that
the Canadian and British delegates are not
going to Washington with some impractica
BILE scheme trumped up to carry out pledges
made to the electors of Canada during the
late campaign without any serious belief
that negotiations would come to anything.
From what can be gathered, Blaine com
municated to Macdonald, through the Brit
ish minister, that he will not enter into a
formal conference until Canada's represen-
tatives have informally discussed the ques-
ton with him.

PROCTOR TO RESIGN.
The Secretary of War VIII
Shortly Quit the Cabinet.
1t VIII Occur about the First of JuIY-various
Reasons Are Assigned for thistle
Has Senatorial Aspirations.

Especial 10 THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.
New YORK. March 21.-A Herald Wash
ington special says: The first break in
President Harrison's cabinet, except that
caused by the death of Mr. Window, will
shortly occur by the resignation of Red
field Proctor, secretary of war.
This statement is based upon information
obtained from perfectly trustworthy
sources, and may be accepted as absolutely
true. 1t will not be denied by Mr.. Proctor,
although he may not be able to state the
exact date when his resignation will take
effect. The change may be the 1st of July,
the beginning of the new fiscal year. AS
to Mr.. Proctor's reasons for leaving the
cabinet, many theories will of course be
advanced. My informant assured me the
main reason is MIR. Proctors desire to re-
sumo charge of his extensive marble inter
esJs in Vermont, which he finds are suffer-
ing greatly from lack of his personal atten-
ton. Then, too, he has political aspira-
tons in another direction. 1t has long
been known to his intimate friends that he
desires seat in the United States Senate.

northern states, over which the ground is
generally frozen, and spring work delayed
In the northwest the ground is generally GOV

idly and which will furnish sufficient mois-
ture in the spring wheat regions to assure
an excellent start for the crop. The
weather was favorable throughout the fall

are reported as favorable, and the prospects
excellent. In New England the weather is
unfavorable for sugar ma&ing, but favor

Italy and Germany.

ROME March 21.-The German govern
ment cont'nu its efforts to draw Italy in
to a European zollverein against protect
ionist ste ses. In the present state of
Italian politics and finances, however, this
government hesitates to respond to Ger
many's offers, being doubtful of the wisdom
of sacrificing her trade with France and
America which, in 1899 amounted to
SIS, OO0,OOG for the constantly declining
trade of Germany and Austria, which
amounted to only S3,500,000. The Italia
thinks the conference between Germany
and Italian railroad officials will be the
first step toward zollverin.
The government has not yet replied to
the invitation of the United States rendered
through Porter, American minister here,
to take part in the World fair to be held
in Chicogo, but the Italians generally are
taking deep interest in the matter.

The Nebraska Senate DEADLOCK.

LINCOLN, Neb., March 21.-The deadlock
in the senate continues. The senators de-
clare their intention of insisting on their
action, one side for and one against the
maximum freight rate bill, until the close
of the session if necessary. The opponents
of the bill are bound TO defeat it. Senator
Taylor, who ran away, it is alleged to es-
cape voting on the bill, was located in
Council Bluffs, Iowa, this afternoon. The
sergeant-at arms tried to get requisition
papers but Governor Boyd was on the road
to Omaha. Friends of the bill tonight
threatened to swear out warrant charg
ing Taylor with receiving a bride. To-
night cots are being taken into the senate
chamber.
