There's little brown wren that has built In
our tree.
And shes scarcely MS l II as a big bumblebee.
She has hoilowed u house In the heart Of q
limb
And made the walls tidy and made the ficor
trim
With the down Of the crows foot. with tow
and with straw,
The contest dwelling that ever you saw.
This little brown wren has the brightest Of
eyes
And foot of a very diminutive size.
Her tail Is as trig as the sail of ship.
She's demcre, though she walks with hop
and skip.
And her voice-but flute were more fit than
apen
To tell of the voice of the little brown wren.
One morning Sir Sparrow came sauntering by
And cast on the wren's house an envi0us eye.
With strut of bravado and toss Of his head,
I'm put In my claim here" the bold fellow
said.
So straightway he mounted on impudent wing
And entered the door without pausing TO ring.
An instant-and swiftly that feathery knight.
All towsled and tumbled, In terror took flight,
While there by the door on her favorite perch.
As neat as q lady Just starting for church,
With this song on her lips. 'He win not call
again
Unless he Is asked" }" sat the little brown wren.

ALL THE FAvoRITEs ENTERED
a Brilliant Days Sport at Thunder
bolt Tomorrow.


The races at the Thunderbolt park to-
morrow afternoon will commence
promptly at 2:45 o'clock. The 2:35 class
will be called first. After one heat has
been trotted the running horses will take
their warming up brushes before they are
brought to the post for the running
events.
The horses for the first running race
will be required to report at the post at
$3.50 o'clock. The judges for the day will
be Messrs. E. G. Gleason, w. H. Connerat
and j. A. Dell, of Baltimore.
The famous driver, Tom Kerr, will Off
ciate in the starters box. Mr.. Kerr has
had much experience starting runners,
and his work at the post will be greatly
appreciated by race-goers.
The running races will be twenty min
utes apart, and will be conducted on the
same principle as they are at any of the
big tracks.
The four horses in the harness event
ought to put up a brilliant race, Morgan,
the trotter, has a large circle of
friends, and they will probably make
him favorite. Pat Fallon and Dick
Egan are in good form and will be hard to
beat. The veteran reinsman, J. A Bland
will drive his speedy PAGER, Fidus, in this
race, and he says that "they will have to
go three very fast heats to beat him for
first place.
Entries for the running events have all
been filled with a large number of candi-
dates, and each stable intends to back their
entry heavily. Just what horse will be the
favorite in the running is hard to tell
until after the horses are warmed up on
the day of the race.
Manager Doyle requests the patrons of
the park to come early as he will be COM
PEELED to start the programme promptly
as advertised.
There will be ample accommodations at
the park and the electric lines will run
special schedules TO the grounds.
The following thoroughbreds will start
in the running events.

RAILWAY MEN MADE HAPPY.
Two Christmas Presentations at the
s., T. & w.


Master Mechanic G. NJ. D. Riley was
handsomely remembered yesterday after
noon by the employees of the Savannah,
Florida and Western and Charleston and
Savannah railway shops at Savannah, of
which he has been the head for several
years.
The remembrance took the shape of a
handsome silver service in an oaken
chest.
The presentation speech was made by
Mr.. j. f. Enright, who, in an appropriate
manner, expressed the feelings of the en-
ployes toward their chief.
In speaking of Mr.. Riley's treatment of
the employees, MIR. Enright said:
You have been kind, generous and Just in
all your dealings with US, and we feel that
some compensation Is due you, not as is reck-
oned in dollars and cents or in the value OF
the gift, but that which emanates from the
heart, which we call good will. Nor sir, will
that good will cease with the setting Of to-
days sun. 1t shall continue in the future as
it has been in the past.
We sincerely wish yourself and family the
merriest Of Christmases, the happiest of New
Years, turning over to your keeping some
thing that in after years, when you
have crossed the river and are mingling with
the select majority, your children can point TO
with pride and say: This was presented my
father by his workmen because he was
just man.
Mr.. Riley's response was brief and ap-
propriate. He said:
Mr., Enright and Gentlemen-Words fail me
when attempt to express to you my feelings
at this moment. When look upon this token
OF your friendship 1t makes me feel proud to
know that have under my employ men who
esteem me as you do, and weak words could
not convey unto you the emotions that fill my
inmOst heart
AS far as my justice in dealing with you is
concerned, it is only mortal and is what is re-
CURED Of all mankind. No doubt II many of
you occupied my position you would strive as
hard as l do to discharge the duties and re-
sponsibilities that rest upon me, in just and
conscientious manner; and to know that you
esteem me thus more than repays me for my
efforts.
Gentlemen, can say no more. except that
l wish you, one and all, merry, merry Christ
mas, with many happy returns.

Presented a Silver Service.

The employees of the Savannah, Florida
and Western wharf played Santa Claus tc
Assistant Agent S. r. Harris yesterday
afternoon. Mr.. Harris gifts from his
employees were very handsome.
They consisted of a handsome silver
service of five pieces upon large silver
waiter with two large silver candelabra
and large bronze lamp.
The presentation was made by Mr.. J. j.
Stafford, who in few well chosen words,
stated the appreciation of the employees of
their uniformly kind and courteous treat
ment by their superior as well as their ad-
miration for the able manner in which he
discharged the duties of his office.
Mr.. Harris responded with much feel
ing, thanking the employees for the evil
dences of their kind consideration.
The center of the large silver waiter Is
engraved with the Inscription, "Pre-
sented to S. r. Harris, assistant agent
Savannah, Florida and Western wharf,
by the employees, Christmas, 1882
The silver service is engraved with Mr..
Harris monogram on each piece.
The silver candelabra are of fine work
manship and will make handsome orna-
ments.
MIR. Harris has reason to feel proud Of
his Christmas gifts.

PRETTY SLICK THIS.
a Colored "Spotter'' Works a Scheme
on One of His Prisoners.

a Colored "Spotter'' Works a Scheme
on One of His Prisoners.
Justice Frank McDermott committed
Turner jackson, colored, to Jail yesterday
morning on a warrant sworn out by Ed
ward Rough, also colored. Jackson, it is
claimed, stole watch from the prose-
cutor in novel manner, and quite an in
teresting story was brought out in con-
nection with the affair 1t runs like this:
The second Sunday in October Officer
John Kavanaugh stumbled upon gang of
crap-shoouers, in Yamacraw. jackson
was the only bird captured, the others es-
Gaping.
While on the way to the barracks the
negro told the officer that if he were re-
leased he would put him up to a game
that was in progress at Dittmersville,
IN the southeastern part Of the city. AS
there was really no proof of the fellow
being guilty, the officer jumped at the
otfer, and, true to his word, jackson led
him out TO the house in the suburbs. In
the raid which followed Edward Rough
was captured. The batch of prisoners
was divided among tho arresting officers,
and Rough fell into the hands of jackson.
On the way in he was told by the latter
that he must give him his watch and
money, as laid down by law.
The other negro foolishly complied, and
after being fined s. the next morning by
recorder Wilson, he went to jackson and
demanded his property He denied all
knowledge Of the affair. Several days
afterward the watch was found in pawn
shop, and soon after Rough took out the
warrants above stated, and Detective
O'hare caught jackson in the 'Craw.
