TElEPATHY.

Last night we met, where others meet.
To part as others part:
And greeted but as others greet,
Who greet not heart to heart.
We talked of other things, and then
To other folk passed by;
You turned and sat with other men,
With other women /.
And yet a world of things unsaid
Meanwhile between us passed:
Your cheek my phantom kiss flushed red,
And you looked up at last.
And then your glance met mine midway
Across the chattering crowd:
And all that heart to heart can say
Was in that glance avowed.

"One of the Finest" which will be at
the opera house on Friday evening,
played from Monday afternoon until
Saturday night of last week at Music
Hall, Scranton, and the papers of that
city were very liberal in their praise.
The Tribune said: '"The production, so
far as scenery and effects are concerned,
was one of the best ever seen in this
city. The view of sunset in Central
park, and the great pier scene on the
North river are marvels of stage realism.
To represent the river an immense tank
covering great portion of the stage;
filed with water to depth of three feet,
is used and in this boats are moving
about, men and boys swimming in it,
while on the dock is crowd singing and
dancing and having fun generally. 1t

plauded it to the echo. The piece is
