v REMINDERS.

Shy bluebird on yon maple spray,
My coming caNsesy you surprise.
You cry aloud and fly away
On wings that glitter as they rise.
So blue are they, so skyey clear,
UneQualed bliss their beaming brings;
For now ! think of one most dear,
Whose eyes are bright as bluebird's wings
From covert groves glides forth a trlll
OF wild birds singing Justify,
Yet while | list my thoughts will still
Seek her Who is most dear TO me,
For. oh, her soft and soothing voice
Sounds merrier than the leaping throns
Or waters when spring rills rejoice
Its music mates the linnet's n
Upon a b~Gurreoned white birch broad
A squirrel ~garnbols spry and fleet.
Until, By my rude spaniel awed,
She higher mounts on hasty feet:
And as she bounds without a fall
From lower limbs to limbs above
Her agile motions well recall
The fake-light footballs of my love.

ST LOUIS. No, July 20.-The Missouri
Pacific railroad has thrown down the
gauntlet to the American Railway union
for fight to the death. The following
certificate was this morning handed a
yard clerk on that road who had reported
two days ago for his old position:
This is to certify that ..... 80. has
been employed in the capacity of clerk in
the yard department of the Missouri Pa
cIfic system, ST. Louis terminal division,
from April 1895 20 June 1894. at which
time it was necessary to lay HIM off on ac-
count Of strike in the yard. He reported
for work on the 18th of July, but in the
meantime IL was learned that he was a
member OF the American Railway union
and was in sympathy with the strike
movement, so that we could not re-employ
him. His work and conduct up 10 the
time OF strike was perfectly satisfactory.
(Signed.) J. S JONES,
Terminal superintendent"
It is probable that a civil action for dam
ages will ba brought against the railroad
for its action In this matter. If the stat

out against Superintendent Jones for

PRIMARY ELECTION SCRAP,
Factions in Pullman Threaten Peace at
the Polls-Militia Ordered.

CHICAGO, July 20.-The unusual sight
Of militia called to preserve order at the
polls was witnessed at Pullman today. AT
the sixth primary district polling place of
the Thirty-fourth ward, located at the
Pullman engine-house, poll fight was
waged between the factions supporting
George W. Miller and Franklin Robey, for
nomination for the Third senatorial dis
trict. Aiiller's interests at the Pullman
polls We're in charge of Alderman Chad
candidate, Robey, was supported
by a large crowd of the strikers
The latter claimed that their
man was not having fair play and that
| Miller had two OF the three judges and all
the clerks. They placed William Birkhoff
at the polls as challenger and Alderman
Chadwick demurred. claiming that Birk-
hOff was not Il resident of the district. This
caused "A lively row and for a time it
looked as if the crowd which had rapidly
| increased would clean out the polling
places. The police were notified and sent
patrol wagon with Lieutenant Bassett
and eight officers to the scene. At the
same time some one sent for the troops
and two detachmeuts of company Z first
regiment were sent on the double quick tO
the polls, The show of force prevented
any trouble and police drove the crowd
back.
No more trouble occurred until o'clock
when the laundry girls quit work. When
they left the works they were surrounded
by deUOnstrative mob of from 500 to
1000 women and children, who followed
them through the streets of Pullman to
their homes. Several policemen were on
hand-anc gave them projection. No arrests
were made. The police were not accus-
toned to dealing with a crowd of the FEM
mime gender, and did little more than
keep the most turbulent women from seiz-
ing hold of the frightened girls.
At o'clock fifty HolIanders, who have
been employed about the works as lumber
showers, track graders aud repairers, left
the works for their homes II Roseland
They had guard Of sixteen policemen,
commanded by Lieutenant Bassett.
Scarcely had they come from the works
when 100 of the strikers surrounded them.
The police then charged the crowd several
times with liberal use of the club before
it was dispersed. In the election today
the a. r L. delegates to the state sena-
tOrial convention were elected by 2i4 to 1O4.
