;oY COMETH WITH THE MORNING

The longest, darkest night must wane.
Joy doth the sunshine bring.
The deepest loss must yield some gain
For future blossoming.
No hopo so quenched in sullen fears
But buds can newly blow.
No sin so black but contrito tears
Can wash il white as snow.
No life so wrecked but some strong spars
Remain TO build anew.
Behind dark clouds flash golden stars,
And soon their light CLEANS through.
The smallest talent soonest turns,
Increasing as 'tis given.
No friend so false but truer ones
BY his defect are shriven.
o doubling mourner, natures truth
Exhales upon Gods air.
All and in all IL heavenly truth,
And heaven IL everywhere.

Movements Concerning the Management
of the Local State League Team.
The management of the local State
League base ball club was re organized
yesterday with t. J. Joyce, president
VI. E. Doyle, secretary; Philip E. Coyle,
treasurer, and William S. Brennan,
manager. The management is to be
known as the Shenandoah and MahanOy
City Exhibition Company and the officers
will be the board of directors.
Jim Little, of Springfield, Ohio, arrived
here yesterday. He will play at first
base
John Sweitzer, the Harrisburg man
who has joined the team, is so short that
he reminds one of "sweitzer" after it has
shrunk very much.
The Carbondale club is looked upon as
the strongest in the league It present.
There are several strong players on the
home team, but it is feared that several
who have been signed will have co be
weeded out before the season advances
far.
| 1t is rumored, and the rumor appears
we'll founded, that Martin Kennedy, the
New York man, has left town for good.
He didn't like Shenandoah and it is said
the story that his mother had injured
herself by fall on a pavement was a
mere excuse to get away. However,
today will show whether or not 1t was a
fake, as Kennedy promised to be back by
this evening.
1t has not been decided where the team
will play home games this season, but IL
is quite likely the old grounds will be
used for the early games.

Hammered Iron Work.

The popularity of black iron lamps

gushing art of working in hammered
iron. 1t is the highest type Of iron
work as we'll as the most beautiful, and
we are glad to see it revived. The
hammered iron work Of the middle
ages has been reverenced almost as
departed art. The best Of this work
is very expensive, but that has not
prevented the production of some mag

Unfortunately Placed,

Bishop Wilberforce vas much be-
loved in Yorkshire, and in Hull the
house where his boyhood was spent
has always been regarded with rever-
ence. With the Wilberforce monu-
ment, however, which stands near st.
Johns church, an absurd incident is
connected. one which vastly amused
the good bishop.
BY some unlucky chance the statue
of William Wilberforce the great man
on the top Of the column, was SO plac-
ed as to face some noted wine and
spirit vaults, while its back was
turned toward st. Johns. Some sail
ors saw the Joke first and managed to
scribble on the pedestal:
So, Billy Wilberforce. thou'st left us in
the lurch;
Turn'd thy face to the ginshop, and
thy back to the church!
