ON SOME FORGOTTEN POEMS.

Dead rhymes are here that no man comes to
Dead as the flowers thas robed the maiden
Spring
TO wed with Summer when the streams were
freed
And ala tho birds BEGAN to nest and sing.
If some one piuelsed the flowers and laid them
Between the prin white pages that I hold,
The crushed and faded leaves would dim the
eye
And leave the yearning heart unoheered and
cold.
But, swcoter flowers OF rhyme. amid the gloom
And silent dust of all the silent shelves,
You keep your glory and your primal blooml
And live. il not for others, for yourselves.
And when ! chance to open wide the page.
Behold. your beauty breaks upon the earth,
And all the splcndor Of a buried age
is born again with glad, immortal birth.
And happy may hear .he master hand
Sweep down the Tyre and wake each vibrant
chord
That swells with glory Of a sweeter land.
Where life was hope and love alone was lord.
So let the cover close, the page grow gray
Amid tho dust where 40 eye comes to see.
Ny heart alone the song shall hold and sway
The poets dream shall wake a world for me.
w. j. Henderson in Harper's Weekly.

into the Cabinet he would relinquish that
position for position of no greater
Importance, no greater usefulness, which
he is liable 10 forsake upon any disagree
ment with the general policy, and in
which he cannot be the absolute master
Of his own opinions.
Not only would onerous and expensive
duties be placed upon him. but he would
probably have to submit his judgment 70

be one member only however i'm

prehend that any such a

Mr.. Blaine out Of the Cabinet There is
nothing little, or contemptible, or mean,
or sly, or selfish, or Extensively pious in
either Gray or Cleveland They are both
large-minded, able, amiable, generous
men, neither one Of whom could enter
tain base thought concerning the
other. But, with all that, Senator Gray
would be making a sacrifice and incur
ring "a risk, 60 abandon his position in

Among numerous other sins Of which

He Ont the Rnno.

The architect Niollet-le-Duc was one
day on the Schwarzenberg glacier, at a
height of about 1000 feet, accompanied
by Baptiste, the guide, who marched in
front. The two men were attached TO
each other by a rope, as is usual in Al
pine mountaineering.
The guide had passed over a creyasse,
but when NJ Niollet-le-Duc attempted
to cross it he failed and fell into the
abyss. The guide tried to pull him out,
but instead he found himself gradually
descending.
The architect perceived that his COM
panion, if he persisted in the attempt to
save him, would surely share his fate,
and he asked if Baptiste had a family.
"a wife and children" was the an
swer
"Then," said Viollet-le-Duc quietly,
81 shall cut the rope"
He did so and fell, but block Of ice
thirty feet lower down stopped his de-
scent. When Baptiste saw this, and that
for q time the danger was lessened, he
went in search Of help and returned with
four stout peasants. Three hours after
ward Viollet-le-Duc was extricated.
In spite of his perilous position, the
ruling passion was strong with the art
ist, for, although he was almost covered
with icicles from the dripping water, he
had contrived TO make drawings Of the
novel effects he was able to perceive

SENATOR GRAY.

AS the dispatches from Washington
yesterday indicated, senator Gray is
averse TO accepting a position ia the
Cabinet
Il is unfortunate for the people that
there are times when men best qualified
for responsible positions in the govern
ment cannot accept them because the sal
aries are not adequate. It is proper that
republican government should be
economical, but it is unfortunate that
economy should deprive the people Of the
services Of some Of the most able men
living.
The increasing Importance of the Of.
fees. the phenomenal growth Of The
country and the development Of
luxurious living have made the
social duties Of a Cabinet officer far
more expensive than was ever Imagined
they would become by those who fixed the
salary. Hence 10 has become necessary
that either rich men or obscure men
should be selected as confidential cd.
visers Of the President Senator Gray
is neither rich nor obscure
While Senator Gray would feel proud
to be associated with Mr. Cleveland and
the distinguished men who will assist
him 70 shape the policy Of this admins
tration, and turn the Efforts aud energies
of the people into habits OF reasoning
aud channels Of trade dictated by sound
political economy and justice, and iu
augnrate an era Of prosperity heretofore
unequaled. even in The country Of mar
velous prosperity. he hositates TO aeeep
position that would cause him persona
embarrassment. He loves his country
he admires Mr.. Cleveland, but he mus
be true TO himself.

Haunted by nm Advertisement.

Haunted by m Advertisements.
Have you ever been haunted by an ad-
vertisement?
1 have asked lots Of people that ques-
ton and they nearly all tell me that
they have undergone such an experience
ut one time or another.
The particular "ad" that haunts me is
one containing the picture of a mans
face A very insipid face it is, too, with
an absolutely perfect black mustache
attached toit. 1t has a grewsome effect,
TOO. a there is no neck visibly attached
to iia head, and have often wondered
3 st would be possible to cut a mans
head off SO that none Of the neck would
be left on.
This face persists in getting in front
Of me and staring at me with those
meek eyes. No matter which end of an
elevated car 1 go in just as soon as 1 am
comfortably seated in scat 1 can feel
that face looking at me; and sure
enough there it always is-aboye the
windows directly across the car. If
open the advertising pages Of a maga-
zine that face viii be the first thing TO
meet my eye. On the street am always
seeing SC on the billboards or some adj
vertising dodger.
You may say that this is all very
easily explained by the fact of the adj
vertisement being n very common one
that everybody would be running
against. On the contrary it is rather OF
an uncommon one, but wherever it is
am sure to find it. 1 don't know what
the article is the face adverises, and
don't want to. only want to be freed
from the nightmare Of that mask.-New
York Herald.

rAE RAuM MYsTERY.

Referring to this greatest and most
persistent scandal-the scandal which is
not only the greatest scandal Of Harri-
sons but Of any administration. and is
destined to be the greatest scandal Of
all ages-the pension payments, the
Philadelphia Record says
''The mystery Of the retention Of
Raum at the head of the Pension Bureau
win probably be no longer a mystery
when the Ways and Means Committee
shall have finished it's explorations into
the condition of the Treasury. Some
curious facts with relation to pension
expenditures have already been de-
veloped. For example, between the
time when President Harrison was re.
nominated and the November election
80. 900 names were added to the pension
roll, or at the rate Of nearly I 200 names
per day--an unusual rate Of speed A
brake was only put on the outturn whom,
after Cabinet consultation, il was
found necessary to slow up because Of
the condition OF the Treasury. There
was not money enough in sight TO pay
the new pensioners
Another significant fact has cropped
out as TO the distribution Of pensions
They seem TO have been put, like Oake'
Ames Credit Mobilier bonds, where they
would do the most good. This is Illus
trated by the following figures for fou
of the principal states Of the North

In regard to Mr. Bayard's acceptance
Of the preferred Cabinet position, the
obstacles in the way are his disinclina
tion to return to public life and his stlll
greater disinclination TO hamper the pro.
gress OF Senator Gray. II it could be
arranged satisfactorily to Senator Gray
doubtless Mr.. Bayard would resume his
duties in the Senate to allow Senator
Gray to 90 into the Cabinet. There is
no doubt whatever that Mr.. Cleveland
wishes to avail himself of the services
Of both men. They would both be
requisite TO the success of the admins
tration, to the career Of the Democratic
party and to the welfare of the country.
There isno question thatMr Bayard should
re-enter public life. The crisis demands
men Of his character, his ability, his
experience, his wisdom, his tact. his
statesmanly advice. There Is not another
such man in the country who possesses
alike the confidence Of the people and
the personal attachment and admiration
Of Mr.. Cleveland II an arrangement
cannot be made by which Senator Gray
can 60 into the Cabinet and Mr..
Bayard into the Senate, whereby they
could serve the country, the administra
