POETIC THOUGHTS.
Written for THE SUNDAY CALI
THE PROOF.

EaSEAor words, but acts: remember human praise
lN 50 very lightly glven-ons kindly deed
- Alone is worth thousand honeyed phrases
That cannot comfort you In time OF need
For, oh, when dawns on You day of trouble
ozark days must come to all of us at best),
You ind such friendship but an EN- pty bubble
A thing by far too frail to stand test
For who cannot rejoice In summer weather
When nature smiles and skies above are bluef
Not till we face iife's wintry clouds together
Can we detect the false friend from the true
II you can count on one, whose dearest pleasure
1t is to guard your name from stain or blot
Believe me, you have found, indeed. a treasures
priceless pearl, although you know 1t not.
The friend who turns aside a shaft of malice,
Aimed by some foe your defenseless head.
Should be more priced than he who in his palace
Invites you to a feast OF dainties spread.
The woman who dreams but OF manly beauty
May wake TO her lido turned to clay;
The man who from eapr ice adnres. not duty,
May find her true-out only for day.
To choose for true, intrinsic worth were litter;
Mere outward brilliincy is not enough;
The jewel bright that caught you with its glitter
May not be worth the diamond in the rough.
Perchance he who unnoticed fingers near you
May love you more than all the world beside,
But waits until you need his help to cheer yout
he is your friend whose fri endship has been tried.

half dozen years ago this august lady
was known as Dolly Tester. She was then
kicking up her heels on the stage of the
Alhambra. She had been barmaid She
had now graduated from an official repre-
sentative of the bar to one of its foremost
patrons, and. indeed, had succeeded so
well in the latter capacity that she earned
the variety which spices life by alternating
between the Alhambra and the prisoners
box Of the Bow-street Police Court as a
drunk and dlsorderly.
Yet she was a great favorlte with the
jeunesse dorer, and just here may be noted
a curious coincidence that brings her into
close fellowship with the Countess of Clan
carly.
Foremost among her admirers was the
young Jew who was named as core
spondent in the Dunlo divorce case. One
day, In a ocular mood. the latter presented
her with blank check. She took it in the
same mood and made the joke widely hiiari-
GUS by filling the check up for $50 COO, and
then, still in the same spirit of delir Gus fun,
she went off and married the bralnless
young ViscOunt SavernaIe, whose father
died a few months later and left him the
titles and the estates, which she now shares
with her consort.
But the Marchioness of Aylesbury has
left the stage. The Countess of Clancarty
will be forced to remain, because the cruel
old Earl cut off from his son everything
that the laws of entail would allow him to
cut off. The grandeur of titles needs the
humble aid of coined metal to support it.

r.-pay.s Election.

Whils but \ very light vote was poll. ed at the election today. it was larger than was anticipated. But little inter est has been taken in Il e question of Statehood or in the election of dele gates. But this morning. when the polls opened, workers in the democratic party pu. on their political armor and worked with as much zeal ss though e congressman were to be elected. Wagons were employei to carry voters to the polling place, and every one en- titled to vote who would vote the demo- cratic ticket was carried to the polls. Republicans, on tue other hand, were inactive, and while the result cannot be foretold now, those who have watched the polling place predict majority in this precinct for the democratic candi- dates. Owing to the fact that neither of the printing offices here succeeded in getting ballot paper from the secretary of the territory in time to print the tickets ou such paper, there is quite difference n ths material of the paper used in printing the respective tickets, making 1t an easy matter to tell the kind of ticket being deposited. The republican tickets were printed on . good heavy quality oi brief paper, while ordinary fimsy paper was used for the democratic ones. Justice An drcws, wi WAS one Of the judges of election. p, rpetrAted joke ia the early morning, by stating that he did not be- iieve the republican ballots were legal, and he thought that he would not count them, hoping thereby to deter some from voting them. but the scheme did not work, AS the validity of one was as undoubted as the other.
 At 4 30 o'clock, at the time of going to press. 535 votes were pcllei. and it is thought that this number will not be increased much.
