THE AFTERGLOW.

When behind the far-off mountains
Sinks the sun to nightly rest,
Then the clouds that yelled it's brightness
Idly lie along the west;
Each one tipped with rosy splendor,
Which the noontide never knew,
And the afterglow so tender.
Lights afar the dome of blue.
When life's woes, and cares, and blessings
Human hearts have known and bore
Till the years that are behind them
Number more than those before,
If these lives are full and rounded,
AS Christians life should be,
And the fruits of Gods own spirit
Deck the autumn-tinted tree,
Will there not be joy and gladness
Youth and manhood never known
Peace that passeth understanding
Is the heavenly afterglow.
Clara Brown Heath, in Good Housekeep-

From Weakening dawn to daylght's close,
A song whose burden all shall be,

Watching each thought that slowly passes

Must note it's colors, prove it is no spy

Who answer God and Man" AS counter

Origin of the Loving Cup.

There Is an inquiry as to the origin
of the loving cup from one who attend
ed the last dinner of the Clover club and
kissed the lips of the hospitable tank
ard as it circled the board. The best
account of its creation comes from the
late Lord Lyons, British ambassador at
Paris. According to his narrative King
Henry of Navarro (who was also
Henry w. of France) while hunting
became separated from his companions,
and, feeling thirsty, called at wayside
inn for cup of wine. The serving maid,
on handing it to him as he sat on horse
back, neglected to present the handle.
Some wine was split over, and his
majesty's white gauntlets were soiled
While riding home he bethought him
that two-handled cup would prevent
a recurrence of this, so his majesty had
two-handled cup made at the royal
potteries, and sent it to the inn. In
his next visit he called again for wine,
when, to his astonishment, the maid
(having received instructions from her
mistress to be very careful of the kings
cup) presented it to him holding it her
self by each of it's handles. At once
the happy idea struck the king of cup
with three handles, which was prompt
ly acted upon, as his majesty quantity
Remarked: Surely, out of three
handles 1 shall be able to get one!"
Hence the loving cup. - Philadelphia

THE COMPANY ROUNDED UP.
JUSTICE GAYNORS DECISION.
A WRIT OF MANDAMUS TO ISSUE AF-

NO SERIOUS RIOTING AND NO BLOOD
SHED REPORTED YESTER-
DAY - THE SHOOTING
OF CARNEY.


The feature of the Brooklyn trolley strike
that caused greatest comment yesterday was the
decision handed down by Judge Gaynor. of the
Supreme Court. that mandamus should be
issued directing the Brooklyn Heights Company
to operate all its all its lines or e.se
show cause why it's charter should not be for
feited. This was a tremendous surprise to the
company and victory, 50 far as it goes. for
the strikers.
The application for this writ was made on
Wednesday by John Loader, Fulton-st. furn-
ture dealer who complained that his business
was injured because the cars were not run.
In his decision, published elsewhere. Judge
Gaynor says that 1t only remains for him to de-
termine the form OF writ, whether 1t shall be
peremptory or alternative and the counsel for
each side will be heard relative to this point at
10 O'Clock this morning.
The situation yesterday was about the same as
on Wednesday, There was less violence and no
boodshed
The shooting Of Carney on Wednesday was
widely discussed by Brooklyn people. and the
sympathizers with the strikers strongly de-
nounced Colonel Austen and Major Cocnrane, OF
the 18th. These officers. for their part alleged
that whatever they did was In the strict perform
ance OF their duties, and that the shooting was
justifabe. Thomas Carney. the victim. died
early yesterday morning at the Long Island
College Hospital.
The companies opened the Greenpoint the
Flushng-ave. and the Crosstown Hunters Point
and Erie Basin lines yesterday. They ran few
cars. but they say they nave broken the Ice.

tary and police guard
The strike Of the lnemen did not seem to have
very much effect Where wires had been cut
during the night the morning start was late.
The Kings County Elevated Railroad Company
set its neighbor an object lesson yesterday by
advancing the wages Of certain employees 10 per
cent for a time The example will probably be
lost on the Brooklyn Heights Company.
The strikers ranks are still unbroken. They
have held themselves together In a manner to
win the admiration Of the people. Few have
been arrested for acts OF violence.
The strike is proving exceedingly expensive to
the companies but they seem to be willing to
spend their earnings In fighting rather than In
wages.
