BENEATH THE o4lMNEYs TALL.

Where spiders stretch their silv'ry webs 70
compass bout their prey;
Where mice hold wnnton revelry all night till
rosy day;
Where trees and clouds are ever near; where
people seldom call,
There dwells very funny world, beneath the
chnneys tall.
There tigers, bears and elephants abide for aye
In peace
Tho lion flings his tawny length beside the
lambs white fleece;
And woolly dogs there are that never bark or
bite Mt all,
And blue.eyed China pussy cats, beneath the
chimneys tall
A chestnut cob with winding horn still ut the
saddle bow,
Who's won the brush In many chase, no moro
the field may know;
Two legs are of, his tail is gone, his nose
Clipped by fall
He's pasturcd in the meadow lots, beneath the
chmneys tall
And horrid war has left Its mark in this Sc
cluded place;
A score Of soldiers headless lie-a captain in
gold lace;
Tho deadly black.mouthed cannon piece that
sent the fatal ball
Is falling sadly to decay, beneath the chimneys
tall
gowns OF silver sheen
Dwell sadly now upon the days of glory they
have seem
And gentlemen who once were first at tourna-
ment and ball
Havo all retired to private life beneath the
chlmneys tall.
Old drums that never more will drum and
horns that will not blow,
Flags that forever more are furled, steamships
that will not go,
With trains Of cars and blocks enough to build
Chinese wall,
Are gathered all within the space beneath the
chimneys tall.
Where spiders stretch their silv'ry webs 70
compass bout their prey
Where mice hold wanton revelry all night till
rosy day;
Where trees and clouds are ever near; where
people seldom CALL
There dwells very funny world, beneath the
chimneys tall

in the latter consenting to re-

The InguIdsDy LeCends.

Barham is not much less good in
prose than in verse, and he manages
his alterations of grave and gay in
verse itself with skill almost equal
to, though less delicate than that of
Praed, who probably gave him some
lessons. His beautiful last lines "As l
Lay A-Thinking" do not require the
not very authentic antiquity of their
spelling to give them charm. He had
scholarship, which, when it does not
prevent man from writing, is seldom
without effect on the quality of what
he writes; he had the wide vague read
ing which scholarship nowadays too
often excludes; he had good humor,
good feeling, good breeding, an inn
mense amount of fun, and an mex
haustible fund of rhymes and rhythms
just suited for his purpose.-Macmil-
lan's Magazine.

The radicals, who have been making

Mcdonald Has a Poor Memory.

COLUMBUS, March 6.-Total lack of
memory on many important matters
was the striking feature of McDonald's
testimony yesterday. Mcdonald ad-
mitted that money was spent to pre-
vent adverse legislation. He and his
deputies thought it a Legitimate ex-
pense, as their positions were at stake.
His attention being called to his testi-
mony before the Legislative investiga-
ting committee that $1,000 was eX-
pended to defeat the BrucS bill for city
inspectors last winter he neither could
recall making the statement nor state
whether or not it was true. The bill
was never reported from the commit
tee. Mcdonald claimed that he told
the governor money had been spent to
influence legislation and denied that
after the investigation, Mckinley re-
fused to accept his resignation and told
him he was removed for corruption.
Gov. Mckinley will be called by the
state in rebuttal.

of thousands of people. The first car
since Saturday night was run out by

the cars with dynamite and trouble is
looked for. Two cars were stoned by
the strikers friends at 1 o'clock. A
dynamite cartridge placed on the track
exploded, causing the operators of the
car TO think they had been fred upon.
Stones were thrown and one of the mo-
tormen had his face cut No arrests
have yet been made.

Molly went to the stove, and, lifting

Dick looked at her for one moment
in dazed, uncomprehending way;

his face grew white with wrath. He

slammed the door.
Just at aybreak, the next morning,
Molly was awakened by the ringing

hickory and showed careful workman

Maybe, though, this strain of SELFISH

in coming to the surface sometimes.
But, there! I've no time to climb

picked up the other ax-helves, and
ran downstairs and out to the wood
pile. No Dick in sight and time to be-

woods she could hear the sound of his
gun. One aX-helve after another was
laid across the sawhorse and deftly
sawed into lengths suitable for the
