Down o. the Thistle.

Ella 81. Se1tos IN Overland Monthly.
On airy wings, those sunny August days,
Slow sails the thistledown;
Through Quivering seas of shimmering colder
haze
The fairy shallops float in airniess ways
And touch at many ports; but wanderers yet
For distant harbors are their light sails set
Though all too frail for voyage long at last
Each bush and briar holds stranded vessels
fast.
While heaped in drifts Of summer fallen snow
Whole arKosies lie wrecked the hedge below
But when the trade winds sweep with desolate
cry.
Fast, fast the thistledown,
Sped by the mad blasts, wildly fiutters high
Above the trees all landward blown to fly
And seek in sudden turns and cirolings wide
A shelter by the fierce gale still denied
While from their moorings torn, the cap.
tives rise
In snowy swarms like startled butterflies:
Far, far they go. and fade In headlong flight
Against the gray sky, from my eager sight.
The harvest of the winds thus reaped in haste
Poor wandering thistledown-
Is swiftly sowed IN fields remote and waste
That fringe the dusty roads, whose bounds are
traced
By ragged ranks of crowded stalks that show
But empty silvery crowns. from friend or foe
Kept safe by sturdy spines. The vanished
seeds
The early rains shall find, as onward speeds
The flying year, till under April skies
In countless hosts the purple blossoms rise.

Why Was Speaker Crisp Left Out

Why Was Speaker Crisp Left Outs
There is good deal Of speculation as to
why Speaker Crisp was not asked to make
a speech at the tariff reform banquet In
New York last Saturday night He was
present and expected to speak. In fact, he
had his speech prepared. as he had been told
by one Of the members of the club that he
would be called upon. And he had right
to expect to be called upon. Being the third
officer in Importance in the government. it
seems remarkably strange that he was not
honored among those supposed to be his
political friends.
No doubt Mr.. Anderson. who presided at
the banquet, has an explanation. 1t will be
looked for with great interest.
There was a story aaoat that Mr.. Crisp
left the banquet hall before the spsak ing
was over. 1t had no foundation, however.
Mr.. Crisp would not have 10 pointedly shown
he felt he had been snubbed, and, besides,
he did not know but tina: he might be called
upon toward the end Of the entertainment.
The House seems to have resented the
treatment be received in New York. As hs
entered the hall yesterday to take the speak
er's chair the democrats cheered him heart
lily, and the republicans Joined them. 1t wa.
some time before order could DO restored
Mr. Crisp is popular and is appreciated in
congress even though he is not in favor with
the leaders Of the Tariff Reform Club Of New
York.

A step has been taken toward pension
reform. The House committee on the re-
vision of the pension laws did great deal
Of work during the recess. and will, 1t is
understood, make report after the holi-
days. 1t is said the report favors codifying
the pension laws. The code Of laws which
the committee hopes to submit will contain
about twenty chapters, the laws on each
branch being so grouped as to be easy Of
access and comprehension, and will reflect
accurately and absolutely the spirit Of ex-
istng laws. Such code, the committee
thinks, will be presented and adopted by the
House. After the pension laws are put into
a satisfactory condition something should
be done at once toward getting rid of
fraudulent pensioners.

that such scene will be witnessed in this
country.

The Cosrer's Donkav

A delightful little story that will surely 20

an incident which happened in a West End
street yesterday afternoon and, although the
name of the principal actor is not published,

May. A costermonger was driving his donkey

little beast was scarcely able to move, and its
master beat it continually with a heavy stick

Ing the cruel treatment of the
little donkey, ordered her coachman to
stop. She begged the donkey driver to cease

stick from him. The order was obeyed with
alacrity. and then the donkey owner turned
upon the fair critic and abused her. The young
woman Indignantly retorted that unless he
would promise to be kind to the donkey in fut-
ure she would give him In custody. The man,
unaoashed, replied that he would apply for
summonses for both footman aud mistress,

cruel donkey driver became the picture of re-

Watson Will Fight PopuIist Battles.
Congressman Tom Watson has been tell
ing his plans TO a reporter in Washington.
He says when this congress ends be will re-
turn TO Georgia and give nearly his whole
time 60 his Newspaper in Atlanta, which IL
ths populist organ Of the state. He intends
20 make 1t lively for the opposition poll
ticians, and declares 10 10 be his purpose to
give the balance of his life 10 carrying on
the hght Of the populists. He says the
populists intend to make a fight for every
little county office In the state at the Janu-
airy elections, and that they will never sur
render no matter how often they are de-
featsd.
1t In evidens that Mr.. Watson feels very
sore over his defeat, and that he wants to
punish somebody for something. he hardly
knows what No doubt be is very sincere,
but there will be 50 many changes before
the next congressional election that there
will not be, in all probability. any populist
party then. He may succeed IN making his
Atlanta paper pay, but the chances are he
will not There are very few people who have
any use for that sort Of paper. IL d . very
good paper Of It's kind, but 10 contains very
little Of what the people want.
Mr.. Watson cannot help making II per-
sonal organ-a medium through which 20
air his grievances-if be tries, and Rriev-
ance paper Is seldom popular.
Mr.. Wasson's great mistake was the burn
ing Of hin library. He spoiled q good law
year in trying 10 make g statesman. He
might have rendered bis constituents and
the country some service, however, If he
had remained in the Democratic party.
Being possessed Of much more than ordi-
nary ability, he could have remained in
congress for years, or be might been called
to higher position. he chose 70 WOO fame
by leaving his party and becoming leader
in party that has no principles shat the
common sense Of the country can approve.
The probability Is that his alliance paper
will not live as long a. the Southern ALtj-
Gnce Farmer did, because the alliance OF
Georgia is not half as strong as II was when
the latter paper was the populist organ.

Influenza has begun to make It's appear
ance in London again. The cases of il are
not reported in the newspapers, but the
physicians speak Of them. The British
Medical Journal declares that there have
been occasional cases since last January, and
experts generally seem to take it for granted
that there will be an epidemic this season.
The only consolation vouchsafed is that the
disease this time will be of milder char
acter. 10 had been hoped that the last of
this disease had been heard Of for long
time to come. Its reappearance, even in
milder form, is well calculated to cause I'M

They Were Mistaken.

For years before Jay Gould died Wall
street men talked of the effect bis death
would have upon the prices Of securities.
They agreed that il there wasn't panic
there would at least be great decline in
the prices Of the stocks In which MIR. Gould
was interested, and that a decline In these
stocks would affect iniuriously the prices Of
many other stocks, particularly the weaker
ones. So certain were they that this would
be the condition of affairs that reports were
started frequently that Mr. Gould was dy-
ing or was dead.
But it turned out that they were mis-
taken. The announcement Of MIR. Qould's
death did not cause any decline warth
noticing even In those stocks Of which bis
estate is a large owner. The stock Of the
Missouri Pacific fell point or two. but II
quickly recovered It's strength. There were
no signs Of panic, and people who sold
stocks in anticipation Of a pretty general
decline in prices had good reason b reeret
their hasty action.
Instead OF deolining there has been q
great advance In the prices of all the stocks
In which Mr.. Gould was most heavily IN
terestsd. The market value Of the three
stocks, Union Pacific, Missouri Paoino and
Manhattan. of which Mr.. Gould's estate n
such a large holder, Ia greater by more than
SIS. zoo, 900 than It was when MFR. Gould
was alive, 9 little more than a week ago.
Wall street dcesn't know why there has
been such q reparkable rise IL the fore-
going stocks. and the opinion is expressed
shat Mr.. Gould had depressing effect upon
them. The truth probably Ia that Mr..
Gould. being dead. nnauciers In whom the
public have the utmost confidence, are will
ing to take hold Of them and manage them
as purely business enterprises. But what
ever the cause, 10 is certain there Is more
confidence in them than there has been for
long time. Wall street ia apt TO be wrong
about as often as it is right in its predic-
tions as to the effect important events that
are looked for in the near future will have
upon the prices Of securities.
