NO A DOGS MEMORY.

The guSty morns are here
When all the reeds ride low with level
spear;
And on such nights as lured us far of
yore,
Down rocky alleys yet, and thro' the pine.
The hound-star and the pagan hunter
shine;
But l and thou ah, field-fellow of mine.
Together roam no more
Soft showers go laden now
With odors OF the sappy orchard bough
And brooks begin to brawl along the
march;
The late frost steams from hollow sedges
The finch is come the fiame-blue dragon
fly,
The cowslip's common gold that children
The plume upon the larch.
There is a music fills
The oaks of Belmont and the Wayland
hills
Southwark to Dewings little bubbly
stream,
The heavenly weather's call .oh, who
alive
Hastes not to start, delays not to arrive,
Having free feet that never felt gyve
Weigh, even in dream?
But thou, instead, hast found
The sunless April uplands underground
And still, wherever thou art l must be-
My beautiful arisel in might and mirth.
For we were tameless travellers from our
birth;
Arise against thy narrow door of earth.
And keep the watch for me.
Louise Imogen Quincy.

RAPID TRANSIT VS.. HORSES.
The Metropolitan Protests Against the
Use of It's Tracks.

Use
The Commissioners yesterday gave q
hearing to representatives OF the Metro
politan Railroad Company, who called to
protest against the use of a portion of it's
tracks by the Anacostia railroad and the
Eekir gton railroad. President Philips said
that there was no good reason why rapid
transit which wouli shortly be put upon
the Metropolitan road, should be embar-
raised by slow horse cars. He said that
the company is ready and willing to enter
into an agreement with the Anacostia road
to transfer, free Of charge, all of its pas
sengers from the corner of Az street and
Missouri avenue.
This would he thought, be a great bene-
fit to the company and would furnish rapid
transit for that portion of its line which
runs over the Metropolitan railroad tracks
These same arguments he used against
the lexington road, which runs over the
to the market. The representatives of the
Anacostia and lexington roads. however
entered strenuous objections against the
transfer system. President Phillips pointed
out the benefit to be derived from a system
OF general transfers and said that he had
no doubt it would increase the travel on
the two roads.
Commissioner Truesdell volunteered the
statement that he thought the time was
frgton would be compelled to use the same
motive power. 1t was entirely wrong that
there should be a difference in motive
power. When the change was brought
about he thought it would be a great bene-
fit to the District.

USED THE SIDEWALK.
John Smith Broke Wah Sings
Laundry Windows.

The sidewalk on the south side of Penn
sylvania avenue between 18th and 18th
streets Is in need of repair, and another
iron worker Is needed at the new city post
office building. The reason of this is the
fact that John Smith, one of the iron
workers, had some trouble with Wah Sing.
Chinese laundryman, about his wash,
and avenged his supposed wrong by taking
a dozen or more bricks from the sidewalk
and breaking sixteen panes of glass in the
Chinaman's establishment. 1t was about
) o'clock yesterday afternoon when the af-
fair happened.
liquor, called at Wah Sings place for his
wash, and he had dispute with the Chi
naman. Not getting his wash he picked
up bundle of clothes ard started out.
The Chinaman soon had him by the collar
and relieved him of the bundle. This
angered the intoxicated iron worker, who
began tearing up the sidewalk and throw
ing the bricks through the windows of the
laundry.
The affair created considerable excite
ment and attracted large crowd. Police
man Oriani arrested Smith and locked him
up. When the case was called in court
this morning the prisoner complained that
the Chinaman would not give him his wash
when he presented the ticket.
Judge kimball told him that he had no
right to tear up the pavement and smash
the windows because of the dispute and
fined him $25 or sixty days on the farm.

STATION SUPERINTENDENT
Responsible Post Office Employees De
sire Civil Service Protection

Responsible Post Office Employees De-
sire Civil Service Protection.
A letter, under date Of December S, 1894,
has been sent out by Charles E. Harris,
superintendent of post Office station
A, in Buffalo, N. Y, stating that the
post office station superintendent of that
city held a meeting November 25 for the
purpose of asking the superintendent Of
stations in other cities to cooperate with
them in making an effort to have their
positions brought within the provisions of
the civil service law. The recent order
placing all employees OF the money order
stamp and register divisions including the
superintendent of those divisions also the
superintendent and assistant superintend-
ent of the city division, under the civil
service law does not, in their estimation
go far enough, as they think that they are
equally entitled to the benefits of the law.
The letter recites further that the men
now in charge of the stations in Buffalo,
with one exception, entered the service by
having passed the examination, and there
fore feel that after having been promoted
on merit, their positions should be secure
from political interference, and particular
ly so from the fact that by the recent or
der positions of greater responsibility have
been placed under the protection of the
law. They have sent copies of the letter
cities, and there will be meeting CT dele
gates in room &c, post office building, in
Buffalo, Saturday, January 5, 1890, for the
purpose of formulating a petition to be
sent to the United States civil service COM
mission. Mr.. Harris suggests that meet
ing of the superintendent of Washington
be held, and action taken as soon as posi-

FIGHTING MUST CEASE,
Gov. O'FerrnII of Virginia Instructs
Sherif Neitch.

Sheriff Veitch of Alexandria county, act
ing on specific instructions from the gov
ernor of Virginia, prevented the fifteen
round sparrng contest between Jack BoIan
of this city and Eddie Pierce of New York,
scheduled to take place at the Eureka
Athletic Club house, near the Virginia end
of the Long bridge, last night. The two
men were on hand, and so were about 200
sports" from this vicinity.
Two professionals from Baltimore named
Buck Kelso and Young Swigert, spared
six rounds, without hurting each other, al
though they tried hard enough to do So,
and the sheriff silently looked on. When,
after long wrangle about referee, Rolan
and Pierce got on the stage, the sheriff
suddenly announced that If either of them
struck a blow he would arrest them both
and the referee as well. The sheriff said
he did not propose to have any prize fight
ing there and turned a deaf ear to all ar
guments that the two men were not going
to fight, but were merely going to give a
fifteen-rOund exhibition for points. Final
ly the managers declared the contest off
and refunded the spectators the money
they had paid to see the sport.

lieved, will show up some very mysterious
matters The race was at a mile and six
teenth, and Ponce de Leon was at the pro-
Eibitive odds of l to 5. When the race was
finished he was actually last in a field of
six. When Jockey Johnson dismounted
from the horse he boldly charged that his
mount was dead under him. The win
ner turned up in May E. against which as
good as $50 to l could be had at one time
and which closed at 30 to /. Westchester

a well-fixed combine, which was to have
Westchester win, the favorite to be
stopped. There was a large crowd present
and seventeen bookmakers, the largest
number in the history of the track
