TO the tale that this trifie can tell,
OF n liberty born Of patriots dream,
OF n storm Graded notion that fell.
Too poor 10 possess the precious ores
and too much Of a stranger 10 borrow,
We issued to-day our promise 10 pay,
And hoped 10 redeem on the morrow.
The days rolled by. weeks became years,
But our Golfers were empty still.
Coin was so rare the Treasuryd quake
If n dollar should drop in the TIL,
But the faith I'm us was strong indeed,
And DIR poverty well we disceTned.
And tbs little check represented the pay,
That our suffering veterans earned.

Yet as gold each soldier received IL,
It gazed in our eyes with a promise TO

Croker Sails for Europe.
NEW YORK, June 9.-Richard Croker

The low price OF silver in Paris has
stimulated the inventive genius Of man.

a new metal by means of an alloy of
copper and silver. using the successful
proportions of the two. He has really
obtained an entirely new metal. one Of
a most extraordinary degree OF strength,
and most valuable for resisting sudden
or long-sustalned strains. There seems
little doubt that the cost OF production
will not be so great as 10 prevent its
large use in the future, even should sill
yer greatly increase in value. To the
low price of silver will be credited the
idea of using II as an amalgam for a
specially high class Of metal.-London

saw u most pernicious joke play
ed on a man between Usage City and
Topeka, last week" said Clement F.
Stone, Of Newton, Kan, who was ut
the Lndell recently. Two men
boarden the train at Usage City, and
took seat in the smoker Just in
front of me. 1t was evident from
their conversation. which was carried
on in quite loud tone, that they
were. both of them, in hard luck,
and were going to Topeka in search
of employment. One of them placed
his ticket on the seat while he lit q
very inferior cigar and his compan-
ion quietly picked it up and put it
in his pocket. A few minutes later
the man missed his ticket, and went
through the usual pantomime of turn
ing out all his pockets and looking in
his hat lining. Knowing the con-
ductor would be round in n moment,
and also that he had not enough
money in his pocket to pay his fare.
again, he began asking the advice of
his friend, who suggested gravely
that he crawl under the seat and try
and escape notice that way. There
seemed no other alternative for the
unfortunate man, who cramped him
self under the seat as suggested.
When the conductor came along the
practical joker handed him two tick
cts and was of course asked who the
second one was for. He replied that
it was for friend who preferred rid
ing under the seat, wbereupon the
victim of the joke crawled out, and
amidst general laughter knocked the
dust of his clothes, and promised to
break in his friends head on the first
opportunity. "-lSt. Louis Globe
