Bryan took good deal of trouble to
urge that the free and unlimited coinage
of silver will raise the price of silver to
sf.29 an ounce, that Is, TO par with gold

tend that the free and unlimited coin

Some Waterfront Fights.

There were two fights on the Aus
tralia and Pacific Mail wharf during
Saturday and Sunday. The first one
originated with a big fireman of the
Australia. Between 10 and II
o'clock Saturday night he jumped
overheard and swan around in
the water for nearly an hour he
then got out on the wharf, put on
some clothes, and, going on board
again, began fighting with sailor
The two went down on the wharf
to finish the fight, but were separ-
ated before doing each other any
harm. Needless to say, the big
fireman was three sheets in the
wind.
The second fight took place on
Saturday morning. A sailors mess
man went aboard in a rather dazed
condition and picked a quarrel
with a sailor. There was an en-
counter at once and the messman
got a cut over his right eye for his
trouble. The other party to the
fun got black eye.

The Queen of the Days.

SOW an Of the days ono day were met
with sober and anxious mien,
40 choose which one they owed the debt
or browning it king or queen.
Then New Year shouted, 81 always led
The column, aud always will;
Give me the crown for my gallant head"
But all Of the days were still
Then Easter spoke the beautiful child
Aud told her gentle will;
They tenderly looked at her and smiled,
But all OF them yet were still.
Victoria's natal day was there.
IIedged round with martial skill,
And 4 orious reign without compares
But all Of the days were still
July had come with Its ordnance tone
The world of the West to thrill
And far was the birth of a nation knownl
But all of the days we're STILL
Thanksgiving lifted her thanks on high,
And winsomely ate her All;
The days looked up to the distant sky,
But all of them yet were still
Now came maiden divinely fair,
Her eyes as a star-beam bright;
The gold of the sun was In her hair
Her form was ray of light.
She held in the worlds elghted gaze
Good gifts for living and dead;
She smiled at all of her sister days,
But never word she laid
All knew that the friendly strife was done,
And never a word said they;
But knelt and crowned the beautiful one,
AS Queen forever and aye.
