It was a bitter cold day in December.
So cold, that little Johnny stamped
first one ragged foot and then the other
on the frosty pavement, and thrust his
stiff hands deep into the pockets of his
tattered trousers. in q vain endeavor
TO keep them warm. He stood with his
small face pressed against the window
OF big toy store on Fulman street.
Johnny was quite Indifferent to the
pushing and jostiing of the people who
passed back ana forth on the crowded
thoroughfare-q Indifferent to the
cold-quite Indifferent TO everything,
indeed, except the wonderful collection
of beautiful toys il Butcher & Cos.
.Huilo, kid, does yer moder know

him, starting him out of his absorb
ton.
Ma replied Johnny, cheerfully. He
did not regard the question as uncom-

"HoP on a mint an look in here.

Skinny, philosophically, ''ye can't have

Skinny was four years older than
Johnny-who was but eight-and wise
IN the worlds ways. Johnny made no
reply TO his friends remark, but
breathed on his dirty little fingers and
shuffied away with an expression of
deep thought in his big eyes without

Light and yet more light to follow,
And the trombone's echoes hollow,
Dipping. rising as a swallow
Dips and falls;
And the song and gibs thereafter,
And the vain and vicious laughter,
Bubbling up to roof and rafter
In these halls
Pleasures here to come and weave you;
Tangling webs that will deceive you;
Lights-o'-love to love and leave you,
While they may;
Youth and beauty to assail you
When no wisdom can avail you.
Till they, laughing, flee and fal you
In a day.
Here the molly throng that masses,
And the cink of touching glasses;
Here the ribald jest that passes
OF the town;
Now q singers voice inslstent,
Now the violins persistent,
And above, the star-gleams distant,
Shining down.
Here are mockeries so jolly
That they blot out melancholy;
Cheek by jowl you sit with folly,
The divine;
And the dream-buds burst and scatter
AS you hear the airy oh chatter eattsr
Over Wine
Hark that waltz's languorous measure
In a chord-wave's sleepy leisure,
Born of pain and stepped in pleasure
AS il swellS.
And across its rhythm singing,
From the city steeples swinging,
Floats the curt, metaiiic rihsins
OF the bells.
Ring the coming of the morrow
While from time space we borrow
Ring the Punishment of sorrow
And its blight;
Ring the light and song and giadness,
Ring the mockery and madness,
All the sorcery and sadness
OF the night. r,.

the house of Mrs. Ogle on the Vermont
side of the river was discovered to be in
flames. Prompt assistance was rendered
but all efforts were useless and the house
burned to the ground in few minutes.
Mrs. Ogle who is lady about seventy
five years of age was in tn. house alone,
and If she had not been awakened by the
smoke she would doubtless have per-

thing. The house was insured.
1t is reported that some of the Insur-

property here until some means are
adopted for fighting fire.
One afternoon last week the NJ. c. En-

The Colorado Convention which will
be held today, Thursday, is important
because it will show whether Teller or
Wolcott is the more influential with the
Republicans OF that state. 1t will be re-
membered that Teller has advised that
the Colorado delegates to st. Louis I've
instructed to withdraw unless silver gets
satisfactory recognition, while Wolcott
has counselled that the delegates stick
and accept the result. even though it be
positive and unequivocal victory for
the gold standard. A while ago it was
probable that Teller's advice would have
been more acceptable, but there has been
of late notcea BILE abatement of the free
silver pluck. Since the great majority Of
Republican conventions have declared
against free coinage the silver men have
been roosting little lower.
