THE POET OF SHILOH.
DOESN'T FANCY HoUsEwORK.

Your correspondent has been keeping bachelors hall the past week, and we have some confessions to make to the fairer sex. We tried to cook veal outlets for breakfast and make such cream gra- " as our ''better half" does. We'll, every thing stuck to the pan. The veal got burned while we were setting table, the gravy popped all over the stove, the potatoes were in jelly form badly "water logged" We tried an egg; the yoke stood up like "Round Hill'' by Charley Botsford's. The white, or burned white came out easily, but that yolk stuck in the center! We forgot the salt, forgot the tea, couldn't find anything we wanted the same day. We wanted to "dine out" Now we have used all the every day dishes and shall buy more or use the best before we wash and wipe them. The boot jack, boots and rubbers lie about the stove. The stove! I've no words to ex- press it's condition, and when the chick ems cry, the cat news, and the COW bel lows we are nearly distracted! Talk about women's work being easy. Why they'll do more work most of them in one hour than the same number of men would do in three. Some fool has said, Needles and pins, needles and pins, when man marries his troubles begins" We say:
 When man marries he shows common sense, And he never will give his wife an offence, And do his best to keep her at home, Unless they together can choose to roam,) We had rather work all over the farm, Than cook our outlets in state of alarm!
 The last musicale at H. E.. Brad1ey's will round up the season probably, yet the increasing interest demands more. Prof Sumner, was at his best, Monday night as also was Bradley's piccolo, Os- born's bass yiol and Wetmore's violin. Dancing was in order early and late, and never did the young and old trip it more fantastically.
 The lemonade, tasted strongly Of lemon,
 No picnic of water and gammon. The cake was the incest of cake,
 Such as the best of housewives make, And the hosts were genial up to the brim,

TO THE ADMINISTRATION.

The present city administration is
to be congratulated upon the manner
in which it is handling the tramp nui;;
sance in and around this city: They
are not allowed to congregate in crowds
upon the street, and if any of them
become in the slightest degree intoxi-
Gated they are hurried off to the cool
or and the next morning placed At
work cleaning the streets of the city,
as we'll as pulling the weeds from
prominent corners, police officer
with Winchester rifle seeing that the
work is done and that the fellows do
not 60 asleep alongside of their labor.
This is a new departure from the ad-
ministration of former executives, if
we understand Alright, and it is de-
parture that all fair minded citizens,
no matter past disappointments will
commend. To Mayor Dickinson, who
spends night and day upon the streets,
at times making the rounds with a
police officer as late as one o'clock in
the morning, the city owes a special
vote of gratitude; to Chief of Police
Crooks and Patrolman French and
Athey assurances Of support in their
work, and to the aldermen an appre-
citation of their efforts for sustaining
the Mayor in his direction of the po-
lice.
