How wonderful art thoui
In a dingy, noisy street,
A pure white lilac growing,

And mingled with their flowing,
Sounds and sights OF long ago,
Roses which have ceased to blow,
Winters Of forgotten snow.
Stranger faces passing by
Saw Them no longer,
Visions Of the inner eye
Ever are the stronger;
Came a face quite close to me,
One I here no longer see,
Smiled, and vanished suddenly.
Everlasting Now,
How terrible art thoul
Wandering by the rivers side,
When the sun was setting,
Whispers came from far and wide,
"There is no forgetting,
Past is present, Now is vast,
What is future will be past,
All will be but Now at last"
Then there shot a keen regret
For q harsh word spoken,
dlistening still with tear-drops wet,
Loves fair flower broken,
Years long past had seen'that wrong,
But OF bitter thoughts a throng
sprang to life all fresh and strong.
Everlasting Now,

a WONDERFUL TALE OF MIR. DE.
PEW.
He Admits Its Truth, Except in Four
"1inOr'' Points.

From the New York Tribune.
In denying a story concerning the New
York Central railroad during last week.
Chauncey NJ. Depew said that he had no
more idea how the story originated than
he had Of how another story originated
which was printed all over Europe while
he was abroad recently. He said the
story as printed was as follows:
It was many years ago when Jenny
Lana patd her historic visit TO America.
she was to sing i'm Albany, and tickets
sold at a great price for those days
on the evening that she was to sins
Just before going to the concert han,
q messenger boy brought her telegram
she tore IL open, and the boy waited for
an answer, She glanced up, and seeing
lndt the boy was bright-eyed little
fellow, asked him If ne did not like mu-
sic. He replied that he did She then
asked him If he would not like TO hear
her sing. He replied that he would. but
that he did not have the money to buy
a ticket. She was so taken with HIS
bright face and general appearance that
when the great diva was living quietly
at home after her retirement from the
concert stage, a gentleman visited her in
her beautiful European nome. He sent
in his card, and in a few moments the
great singer came out to meet him. He
said to her:
upon your visit 40 America you gave a
poor messenger boy a ticket to go and
near you sing IN AlhanyE
THE diva thought for a moment and
then recalled the incident clearly Then
the stranger replied feelingly: L am
that boy. / am Chauncey NJ. Depew.
BY diligence and devotion to duty / have
made my way along in the world / am
now president of the Chicago and North
western railroad. Always in my strug-
gle through life your voice, an angel
voice IL seemed to me- has rung in my
ears and spurred me on to a better and
nObler life. l owe all to you, for the pa
thetic pleading of your wonderful voice
pierced my boyish nature and reused
latent ambition TO be worthy of such a
friend. To-day 1 come TO tell you that to

Here the great man shed tear and

had been an instrument in building up
and sennobling such a grand nature.
Then a beautiful and holy friendship
sprang up between the famous in the
world of music and the famous in the
world of finance and literature and poll
tics that was only ended by her death"
THAT was the story" said Mr.. Depew,
cas- ! heard it everywhere Finally the
newspapers sent men to me for my YER
sion of the platonic attachment between
myself and the famous singer. l said
to them that the story was absolutely
correct except in four minor points In
the first place. I never was a messenger
boy. In the second place, L never saw
Jenny Lind in America. Thirdly, 1 never
saw her in Europe, ana in the fourth
place. / am not president of the Chicago

that I admitted that the story was all

Edison and the Kniser.

While in Berlin, says the Philadelphia
Times. Mr. Edison received an invitation
to visit William the Warrior in his palace,
and on the appointed day state carriage
gorgeous in golden ornaments, drawn by
six horses and with out-riders, called for
him. This display abashed the modest
minded inventor and he said he would
reach the imperial palace in his own way.
He walked. When he reached the desig-
mated place, the fiunkeys in charge de
clined to take his card to the royal pres
ence, his humble appearance making it
seem impossible to them that he was to
have an audience with their master.
Edison, no wise disappointed, returned
to his hotel, where shortly, he was waited
upon by a court official conveying Will
liam's regrets for the mistake and a re-
quest that he would visit the palace next
day and bring with him one of his phono-
graphs He did So The emperor took
him into his private cabinet no one else
being present, carefully closed all the
doors and then besought him to take the
marvellous invention apart and explain
all its workings. This was done, and the
inventor was invited to attend a court
reception next day, and to bring the pho
nograph with him.
Upon this occasion the great American
found the emperor surrounded with a bril-
liant throng of mobiles, each one decorated
with the insignia of his rank-EdisOn,
think, calls them dog collars" When
he produced his mysterious invention, the
emperor took it in hand, eyed it critically,
as though he had never seen it before;
then took it apart and explained to the
amazed courtiers exactly how it perform
ed. He never said a word about his in
structtons the day before.
