Blaine's Old Home.

There died The other day at T.. II. Grcely's
farm in Trenton. Ne, a character once vel!
known in diplomatic circles at Washington.
This individual! WIS none else than James G.
Baine's old saddle and driving horse, Den
man. who. having reached the advanced age
Of more than % years. and become a bur
den 10 himself. was quietly and humanely
transported to the happy hunting grounds
under the painless influence of rag full OF
chlornform.
At Mr.. Blaine's death Mrs. Blaine had
placed the animal i'll Mr. Greely's charge, con-
sidering him TIE one person suitable to care
for the failing health of the good horse and
one whose intimate and extended xpericnce
would fit him admirably for the position of
guardian 10 her beloved Denman. Thatw
three years ago; and since that time Mr..
Greely has kept Denman on his farm in Tren-
ton receiving every year a liberalailowance
from Mrs. Blaine for his support. A few
days ago Mr.. Greedy found that the horse
was growing painfully old and as he was of
no real use TO anybody tfor Mrs. Blaine
would not allow him to be used) he con-
suited with Mrs. Blaine and Denman pa ssed
away rs already stated.
Like Mr.. Blaine, Denman was one of the
best-known figures of the State in his class
and generation. Mr.. Blaine was exceed
ingly fond of him and treated him with
the consideration accorded a child. Den
man was frequent visitor TO Washington
and his proud stepping up and down Penn
sylvania avenue was described as thrilling
in the STANDARDIZATION. Me-, Journal.

The Baby's Answer.

Inc baDy answer
Where did you come from, baby dear?
Out of the everywhere into here.
Where did you get your eyes so blue?
Out of the sky as came through.
What makes the light in them sparkle and
spin,
Some OF the starry spikes left in.
Where did you get that little tear?
found it waiting when got here.
WHAT makes yoar forehead SO smooth and
high?
A soft hand strokcd it as went by.
What makes your cheek like a warm white
rose?
saw something better than anyone knows.
Whence that threc-cornered smile of bliss?
Three angels at once gave me akiss.
Where did you get this pearly car?
God spake, and it came out to hear.
Where did you get those arms and hands?
Love made Itself into hooks and bands
Feet. whence did you come, sou darling
things:
From the same box as chcrubs' wings.
How did you come to US, you dear.
God thought about you, and so 1 am here.

button that reached his hands was $40,
which came with the following letter:

her letters regarding the lepers," said Su-
pervisor Ben Jam in yesterday, "has already

friends like her.
