summary SOMETHING'S

Now the siren on the sands
Waves her snowy arms and hands
While the billow ON her lands,
Madly foaming.
In the noontido's golden boon
Now the wader sheds his shoon,
While the sausage bays the moon
In the cleaning.
Now the maiden hits tho hop,
And she dreams about tho pop,
And the ohowder' Il ON the top
OF the billow,
And beneath her parachute
Now the tlshball, lone and mute,
Hangs her fragile amber luto
On the willow.
Now the bulldog fits along,
All his bosom full of song,
10 the ilngon rue dingdong
On his mettle,
And the iiossy goldenrod
BY the wall begins to nod,
While we dream of whisky tod
In the kettle,
Oh, the peach is ON the stand,
And from Qnogue to Samarcand
Now the iceman beats the band
And the plumber.
Now the bataman on the sculp
knoolis the umpire into pulp.
And the beer we daily gup
Proves it's summer.

was just enough to purchase a good,
strong rope, which was soon procured
from store near by. The money, how
ever, was considered as q loan and was
returned to the victims family after the
lynching ceremonies were over. AT

A STREET CAR AND a LOCOMO-
TIVE COLLIDE.

Yesterday aftcrnon about 4 o'clock n
street car on the navy-yard route was
run into by locomotive No. Is while
crossing Union bridge. The particulars
ms we learned them were that the safety
gates. which are attended to by man
named Jordan, were up and that the
driver Of the car naturally considered
that everything was all right and kept
on across the track. He had gotten not
more than half way cross before he saw
locomotive coming down on him at q
pretty good gait. He cut the horses a
lick. which caused them to jump, thus
saving the car from being cut half in
too. AS 1t was the rear end was struck
and the step was knocked off and one
of the wheels was badly broken. A
message was sent to the stables, an
other car was sent down and the broken
One was carried to the stable.
MI. Jordan, the gatekeepcr. claims
that no bell was rung at all and that
there was box car on the track that
obstructcd his view, consequently ne did
not see the engine until she was on ton
Of the car. He then waved the enEi-
ncer down. He either did not see him
or mistook his signal consequently the
collision occurred.
1t is said that Mr.. Reed was on the
locomotive at the time OF the accident
and reported the facts to Mr. Whisnant.
who gave Mr.. Jordan n reprimand and
he was relieved from duty
There were at least q dozen persons
there who will testify that Mr.. Jordan
was not to blame at all. Fortunately
there was no one on the car a the time.
consequently no one was hurt. The CON
d,rctor had to jump n order to save
his life.
