His Neighbor,s WIG.

FROM the brooklyn Life.
One year ago, in lonely state,
I'd sit and gaze across the way
Into a home, where early, late.
At all hours, things were bright and
gay,
A couple, young and free from care
Alas! how dreary seemed nv life.
For she was blithe and witching fair.
The girl 1 called my neighbor's wife.
One year ago-how could they guess
That glimpses of their paradise,
And tokens of their happiness
Were oft observed by envious eyes?
L learned to hate the other man;
swore that he had wrecked my life
For could but have changed the plan.
Shed not have been my neighbours
wife.
One year ago. And now there sits
Beside me, witching, fair and gay.
The girl loved, and now there fits
Another girl across the way,
Yet I'm not false, nor tickle he:
And he and I are friends for life.
She was his sister don't you see?
And now she is his neighbours wife.

Police Judge Campbell announced from
the bench yesterday that he was desirous
of having all the business Of HIS court
cleared up prior to the date of beginning
his vacation, says the San Francisco
Call. He had hardly descended from the
judicial bench when a solemn-visaged
friend approached him and grasped his
hand.

The jurist said that he felt fairly.

NO, not the sarcOphagus, of course
OF course not. But the body of this

the acceptance of several of her poems

her way home. He was as much capti-

Maude Andrews thus came to occupy the

married to Mr. j. K. Oil, managing editor
of that paper, and Atlanta has since be-
