o, love | stand beside thy grave;
The shadows tall in shifting lines
Athwait this violet-dotied nave
Enriched by the solemn pines,
The tender plumes of tufted grass
That seem 10 guard thy perfect rest
All, me! no mighty gates of brass
Could hold me further from thy breast.
The far, off wind that family means
In balmy eds and woodland rife,
Brings ech es of the liquid tones
That made snch music In my life;
And when watched the flowers unfold
To greet the sofily scented south,
see the smile that played of old,
Upon the blossom of thy mouth.
But when held within my arms
The whiteness of thy womanhood,

Thy trusting faith and perfect good
did not love thee we'll enough;

And lined the paths, dark and rough
with roses for thy tender feet.

But ofttimes the turbid roll
Of daily cares would rise above
The pure affection of the soul:
For sorrow had not come to teach

Startling a Sleepy Native.

Down below Eatchez. while the boat
was running in close to the left-hand
bank and had stopped her wheels to
avoid a big tree floating in an eddy,
we saw a native sitting on a stump
fishing. says a writer in the N. Y. Sun.
He sat bent over, hat over his eyes,
and there was scarcely u movement to
tell that he was alive. We had a
smart Aleck with us on the promenade
deck, aud he had no sooner caught
sight of the native than he called to
one of the %deckhands to toss him up a
potato. A peck or more of the tubers
were lying loose near pile of sacks.

Smart Aleck, as he swung his arm for

The distance was only about a hun.
dred feet, and his aim was SO true that
the potato landed on the natives head
with a dull thnd. His motions were SO
quick that we couldn't agree as to how
lie did it. but in about three seconds
he had dropped his tishpole, pulled a
revolver as long as his arm and fired
at Smart Aleck. The bullet bored a
hole in his silk hat just above his hair,
and the young man sank down in a
heap aud tainted dead away. When
we restored him to his senses he care
fully felt of the top of his head, looked
back at the fisherman, and absently

Had Been Given the "Rush."

During the recent visit of u delega-
ton of members of the legislature and
invited guests to Hot Springs there
occurred an episode that is illustrative
of the haste of some men to perform an
action without asking why OF where
fore. 1t is u well-known fact that
when it rains In the Hot Springs valley
it comes down by the bucketful. Win
dows and doors must be closed at
once. else. carpets and floors will be
soaked through and through. 1t came
TO pass that Hon. John j. O'Dowd and
Thomas j. Cogan were given the same
apartment, occupying beds at either
side of the room.
Late one night a heavy rain came
up, and the noise of the storm awak-
ened Cogan, who discovered that the
windows were wide open. Sitting up
in bed he shrieked to ODowd. Start
ing from a sound sleep that young
mar asked:
Huh! What's the matter?"
Get up and close the windows,
quick! It's raining! Hurry up!f
With a bound O'Dowd sprang to the
floor, and, after a struggle, in which
his night-shirt was soaked and his feet
wet he did that which he was told.
Returning to his couch. the legislator
carefully tucked himself beneath the
corerlids. A silence of two minutes
passed, and her it was broken by
ODowd, who sat up, and, in an in
jured tone, said:
Say, Cogan, what was the matter
