At EVEN-SONG.

n I could call you back for one brief hour,
1t is at even-song that hour should he,
When bells are Ginning from an old gray tower
Across the tranquil sea.
Just when the fields are sweet and cool with
dew,
Just when the last gold fingers in the west,
Would l recall you 10 the world you knew
Before you went to rcst.
And where the starry jasmine hides the wall
We two would stand together once again.
know your paticnce-I would tell you all
My tale Of love and pain.
And you would listen, with your tender smile.
Tracing the lines upon my tearwOrn face,
And finding, even for u little while,
Our earth a weary place.
Only one l!tIr hour. And then once more
The bitter word, farewell, bcset with fears
And all my pathway darkcnrl. rs before,
With shades of lonely Years.
Far h"ttcr. dear, that you. unfrlt, unseen,
Should hover near me in the IuIrt air
And draw my spirit through thi, mortal screen
Your higher life to share.
| would not call you back, and yct-ah, me-
Faith Is 50 Wn:.h and human iuTr 50 strong
That sweet i; seems 10 thi"k of what might be
THIS hour at cven->Dng.

When a bull moose lies dead in the
forest, he looks like some strange ante
diluvian animal, with his square pre-
hensile muffie and horns spreading lat
erally-a peculiarly which he shares
with the prehistoric Irish elk and the
nearly extinct European elk of later
times. The huge form tells of strength
and s%wiftness, and withal the still dan
gercns CLEAN Of the eye, glazed in it's
last stare, bids the hunter pause and
feel almost guilty of a crime in the de-
struction of so much that is grand and
weird, a feeling very different from the
sentiment supposed to attend the slaugh-
ter of a deer. But the triumph of mas
tering the waricst and hravlst animal
in the woods ly fair still hunting and by
g1imly sticking to the track for many 4
weary mile amply atone for any re-
. grets.

SIS FOR CLIPPING A PET DOG.
Poodles OF the Four Hundred Tonsure

Poodles OF the Four Hundred Tonsured
According to the Correct French Mode.
A sign that looks new attracts pass
ersby in front of u barber shop on
Sixth avenue. 1t reads as follows:
Questionable ladies' pet dogs clipped
by an expert. Barber calls at resi-
dence."
The proprietor of the shop is a
smart young Frenchman. He said
he furnishes an expert poodle clipper
at a moments notice, and that he
has the bulk of the business of shear
ing pet dogs in this city. 1t appears
that the dog barber does not practice
on gentlemen callers at the shop. He
just attends to the poodle branch of
the trade.
jean is out attending to Mrs.
Frank Leslles poodle this morning,
said the shopkeeper. He makes
more at caring for the pets of fine la
dies than some of themen in fashion
able barber shops whose patrons are
clubmcn and m~illionaires. He could
tell you many interesting things
about his business if he were here.
He suggested this branch Of my busi-
ness to me. One day he came into
my shop and asked for a job. He
said he could not shave we'll, but
could cut hair artistically. He told
me that in Paris he had made a good
living by cutting the hair of the fash
ionable ladies' dogs, and he asked me
to let him try the experiment in this
city.
Zone day he read a story about
the pet dogs owned by the rich la
dies Of the city, He had some cards
printed and mulird them to these la.
dies. 1t was not long before he re
celvrd letters to call. and now we are
thinking of hiring an assistant for
him. he has made certain styles
prevalent in Paris III clipping poodles
all the rage here
"What price, is charged for clipping
4 Of these pets"
jean charges S. for clipping, bath
ing and pertaining, and he often gets
as much o as a gift from some of
his wealthy patrons. Would you be-
lleve 1t, some of these rich New York
ladies have their pets dine off golden
dishes. When Jean was considering
with me the proper price to charge, |
thought it best to charge as high as
s., for unless you charge a great deal
a rich woman will think you are not
an artist. | told Jean he was an art
list and should fix his price high, as
all artists from Paris do"
Jean tells me that the usual deco
ration consists in leaving the hair on
the poOdles full length in the form of
little anklets about the hooks. two
little tufts on the hips and me on the
back. The fore legs have ankletsan
knee bracelets, and the body is clipped
close to the breast, up to an ornu-
mental collar Of long hair. a mus
tache Is left on the muzzle, which is
clipped smooth up to the eyes. Tic

1t o o became evident that expecta-
tions would be realized, and that the
canvas of Gallaxy's monster tent would
that night cover an audience out Of all
former precedent. Long before the doors
were opened the entrance was besieged
by crowds eager to obtain the best seats,
and an hour before the time of COM
mencement the place was filled to its
utmost capacity. Well might all con-
cerned view the scene with satisfaction.
The performance comprised all the
feats that invariably find a place in the
programme of a circus, the big event be-
ing reserved for the conclusion of the
entertainment. Everything went off
well, and the delighted audience ap-
plauded all that came before it, wisely
determining not to miss the other good
things in the menu for the sake of an
especial dish. The graceful evolutions
of the lady performers, the equestrian
feats of the gentlemen riders, the dar-
ing s~omersaults, the bubbles and quips
of the funny clowns, all came in for
their due share of praise.
At length the piece de resistance was
seached, and amid the enlivening strains
of the band and the enthusiastic cheers
of the audience Bosco came forward,
leading by the hand his little son. AS
soon as the applause had subsidized. the
performer motioned the lad to his place.
An apple was then brought and osten-
tatiously placed, by an attendant, upon
the child's head, and then, under the
glare of a powerful light, the unusual
p~aleness Of the boys pretty face was
plainly discernible-especially to the

or all the successful performers who
stepped into tn" arena OF GallaXy's ia

gre" Of popular approval as did SignOr
Alfredo Busc0 n his S-year-Ull son AL
tOnsO. NhCthcr 1t was Cue to the clcv-
ern"Ss OF their fcats, the daring skill
displayed in the execution Of them, or
to a general attractive drmranor. GER
tain 1t is that from the day Of their first
appearance down to the end of the tom
Slgnor BOsCo and his son were received
with IA genuine enthusiasm such as to
firmly establish them in the favor Of the
audience. When, therefore, it became
known that the last might f the season
was to be devoted to the benefit Of these
popular performers, it was confidently
predicted that the house would be a
bumper.
The proprietor. devming it advisable
on such an occasion that some special
novelty should ho introduced into the
programme, 1t was with no small de
gree of interest that the pOpulace that
morning found the walls placarded with
flaming posters, in the reddcst Of red
INK, announcing that on this the last
night OF the season at Gallaxy's royal
circus and hiprOdrOme, specially set
apart for the benefit of Signor Alfredo
Bosco, that eminent and world enown-
ed performer would, for the first and
only time, attempt a novel and danger
