Of = young girl. poorly but neatly attirsd,

You know my mother. She has only one

The Jealous Robins Fate.
John Lewis Castleton. in the Detroit
1'rfhrnsl

John Lewis Castleton, in the Detroit
Tribune)
Two robins perched on a bending stem
Watched the fakes as they came to them:
Said one TO the other of this hapless pair,
AS the winds flew by with on Icy air:
DO you think my mate OF the robin true,
With his wings Of red and tipped with
blue?
He who was always SO blithe and ,gay?',
Yes" she answered, and she looked
Thinking of robin true am I,
OF the heartless hunter and robin pie.
Two robins sang as the blast flew by,
NockinR the voice Of wailing cry
And again he tainted his morning mate
With the cruel words of a jealous hate.
Last night" she cried. "a dream had |,
That poor robin came and said: Good
byv"
You dreamed" he queried. "of your
robin dear?
Yes" she answered and dropped a tear;
Dreaming OF robin true was j,
OF the heartless bunter and robin pie"
Two gunners followed by a winding
stream,
Catching the light of morning CLEAN:
Yet no sound he heard, for 1t came too
To warn him fly with his pretty mate:
His thoughts were hasty and his look
despair.
rs ne IuFnpu away To INC icy hn
She dreamed" sobbed he, "of the robin
blue,
With this blase confession she is not true!
She that I've loved this many day.
Yes" she muttered, as he steeppd away,
Thinking of robin true am j,
OF the reckless hunter and robin pie
The hunters drew near and gained the
cliff,
Treading the ground now frozen stiff;
Still to and fro this unhappy pair
Slowly they swung I'm the icy air;
Then you think, my mate, or the robin
dear,
With his breast so red and his notes so
clear?
He that was always so blthe and gay?"
YES" she answered. as he turned away;
Thinking Of robin true am j,
or the fearless hunter and robin pie"
What sound is that now shrill and clear,
Speeding so swift and filled with fear?
But II finds no heed save the robins flight
As she scars aloft and out of sight.
Her mate was careless and his look for
lorn,
And he would not fly that early morn;
But she was not false as the hunters note
SO sweetly rung from u silver throat,
Thinking of robin. too was he,
AS he futtered and died in the holly-tree.

About . year ago Miss Nelson was
placed In charge OF Mr.. Curtis, known In

began working on the mare. to get her

Last spring the good work OF Mr.. Curtis
was clearly apparent. and sherwas placed
In the Grand Circuit, and met during
the summer some OF the celebrities OF the
year. During the season she lowered her
record to 212 "a. Some Of the races were
very fast and long drawn-out, but the
little mare. foaled in the broom sage of
Henrico. never wavered, and when called
upon. never refused to respond to the
urging Of her driver.
Mr.. Curtis says he met nowhere IN

with Miss Nelson. and that he has driven
her quarters In 30 seconds. two-minute

meets with no mishap he will have one
of the best horses In the 2:13 class that
will go on the track next year. He thinks
she will trot In 2:06 or 2N next year. Mr..
Curtis also stated that she was not the

While here, Mr.. Donnan took Mr.. Curtis
