SEVENTY-SIx

So I am seventy-six today.
That's very old, the children say,
To them it seems so far away.
All, children, yes, the way is long.
The memories thai round me throng
Cannot be told in idle song.
Has life beer PLEASANT Noand yes.
Sometimes a dreary wilderness,
Sometimes too full of blessedness.
Is it vexation, vanity?
Have you not chided destiny?
Were il not better not to be?
My way has been with perils rife.
Nexation, vanity and strife
Attend, but they are not our life.
The life behind me, though untold
Its woes, its crosses manifold
l would not sell for pearls or gold.
The rcstful hours have sweeter been.
The hours of joy far more serene
Fol all the toll and tears between.
Does not the future gloomy seem?
Brighter than any morning dream
The evening lights that round me
stream.
Is nothing wanting? One thing, yes.
The old time friends | sorely miss.
Give them to me. | ask but this.
Together lovingly we wrought
For truth and liberty and thought.
| call them now-they answer not.
Then have you wealth! With empty
hands
l touch these shining sunset sands.
l have no gold, no home, no lands.
Nothing? Yes, much. Rich treasures
OF hopes and blessed memories,
And endless life my b bright is.

weiPhty Bricks.

The frequency of successful train rob-
bling has changed the system of casting
bricks long in vogue at mining assay
offices throughout the west, and the gov
eminent will soon follow the example
set.
Speaking of the matter, Colonel John
Orolett, formerly mayor at Silver Bow,
but now of Butte, Mon, said:
ASSAY offices at Helena are now re-
ceiving large amounts of gold from the
northern mines, and it nearly all comes
in big bricks foot long, 6 inches wide
and inches deep. recestly saw bar
that weighed nearly $50 pounds, being
worth, at $40 per ounce, over $50, 600.
The bullion is now cast that way to pre-
vent loss in train robberies. Itwould be
almost impossible for road agents to
hide or suddenly carry away such gl-
ant bar as that San Francisco Chron-
icle.

The Sheriffss Ruse.

A deputy sheriff started from the Re-
ceiving hospital with two insane men
who had been committed to the asylum
at Ukiah.
"You had better take some one along
to help you unless you want to have
some trouble" suggested one of the po-
lice surgeons. 1.-TWO men I should think
would be too many for you. p"
"Not much 1t is easier to take two
men than one I'll show you how do
it..
The deputy led the man who imagined
he was king of England to one side and
confided to him:
"Your majesty, that man over there, -
indicating the man who thought his
head was an eight day clock, lis as era
w as a bedbug and is liable to hurt
some of your subjects if he gets loose. L
want you to help me take care Of him
till I can lock him up in the asylum.
"That's an unseemly occupation for
the king of England. FAIL Attendant
to the insane 70 remarked the disguised
monarch. "But l will do it. like adj
venture. You will take due precaution
to conceal my identity, or your head
will be the price of your carelessness. "
The deputy whispered to the human
clock.
"Do you see that fellow over there?'
indicating the king. "Well, he's crazy
and if you don't keep your face toward
him he's liable to stop your hands and
touch off your alarm. Now, want you
to help me watch him till can land
him in the asylum. Then you can run
right along.
When the deputy left the hospital,
the king and the clock had locked arms
and were hanging to each other desper-
ately. The deputy smoked and read all
the way to Ukiah while the insane men
took care of each other.-San Francisco

Told About DR.. Parkhurst.

A laugh provoking episode of the late
Lexow business is told by young man
who was employed by Lawyer Golf at
the time. 1t happened in Gotf's office,
when DR.. Parkhurst, William Travers
Jerome and the chief inquisitor were lis
tening to George Appo's description OF
the various schemes worked by bunko
steerers, f1imfammers and green goods
men. When Apo finished, Golf turned
to his desk, Jerome picked up news
paper, and Brother Parkhurst gazed cell
ingward while he turned over. in his
mind the ways of the sinners in this
wicked world Apo, who has purring
voice, looked at the good, brave man
and said, 81 beg your pardon, doctor. y
His reverie was broken, and Apo con-
tinued: Gould you let me have two
tens for five? I need some change. /"
Certainly, certainly. To be sure l
guess I've got it. Here-yes-two tens
to be sure 3" With that blandness bred
of dash of Chinese blood in his veins,
Apo handed the doctor a FLYER, )"
which was pocketed with scrutiny.
Jerome and Golf, who had seen the
game, managed to control their feelings
until Apo had slipped into the outer
office. Brother Parkhurst apparently
caught their flushed faces, suddenly
jammed his fingers into his vest pocket
and pulled out a So bill He arose and
found the clever rogue, to whom he

wrecked magnificent fotillas of pomp
and worldly power come down on that
Christian soul. All the spirits of dark
ness seem to be let loose, for it is their
last chance. The wailing of kindred
seems to mingle with the swirl of the
waters, and the scream of the wind and
the thunder of the sky. Deep to deep,
billow to billow, yet no tremor, no
gloom, no terror, no signing for the dy-
ing Christian. The fact is that from the
back part Of the boat voice sings out,
"When thou passest through the waters
I will be with thee" By the flash of
the storm the dying Christian sees that
the harbor is only just ahead. From
heavenly castles voices of welcome come
over the waters. Peace drops on the an
cry wave as the storm sobs itself to rest
like child falling asleep amid tears
and trouble Christ hath hushed the
tempest.

Sad Lot of a Mortuary Poet In Prussia.

A private in the Pomeranian chas-
seurs, imperial German army, recently
lost his captain, Franz Abicht, by death.
He always had had the deepest rever-
ence for the captain, and he voiced his
feelings two weeks ago in apoem which
he sent to the Ulmer Zeitung. The
poem was published. As soon as copy
came to the notice of the commander of
the battalion he called the private to
him and told him that the poem, by its
excessive praise of Abicht, implied disre-
spect of the other superior officers, who
outranked the late captain, and there
fore was subversive of discipline. The
private was sent to the guardhouse for
his sins, and all copies of the Ulmer
Zeitung which had been bought by
members of the battalion were seized
and destroyed
