In Memory OF Augusta.

The guest unbidden, with noiseless tread
And swift winged flight,
Hath borne the dearest one past all recall,
Beyond the sight.
A mothers noble mission well performed,
On earth is DER,
A faithful wife can clasp the husbands hand
Alas, no more.
The voice, the touch, the co unset and the step
You crave in vain.
Often will question the mysterious WAYS,
That gives such pain;
Yet would not have her grieve, as now YOU
grleve,
Who loved her so;
God kindly spares from her the moan, since
she
Is first to go.
A gracious heart, W hose sympathetic throb
Met want or pain,
Its worthy thoughts, and deeds, though
hushed fore'er,
VIII long remain.
She is not dead To higher life beyond
She hath but flown,
To broader fields, where naught of earth Is
alarms,
Are ever known.
A trusted friend dixie many mid the blest)
Awaits our feet;
In memory alone we catch her smile,
Return her greet
God has but claimed his own, then murmu1
not,
He knoweth best,
And in his own good time, will give to all
Sweet, perfect rest.
Then patient wait; ere long to greet you may
| In the unknown,
Though darkning clouds obscure life's sea
| storm tossed,
And tempest blown,
| Look upward, trust in him who holds the
helm,
| He'll take your hand;
| Somew here, sometime your bark will safely
glide
To haven land.

Cat That Didn't Come Back.

Suit has been brought by Miss Anna G.
Moore, spinster of Clinton, Oneida county,
N. Y, against DR.. A. d. Morrill,, professor of
biology in Hamilton college, to recover So
damages for loss of a cat. Prof Morrill, is
charged with killing the cat for the purposes
of demonstration to his class. The complaint
alleges that puss was particularly valuable
because of its domesticity and because it had
seven toes. The answer was filed the other
day by ID. f. Searle OF Rome, the defendant 8
attorney. The answer is in full as follows
For answer to complaint herein
Defendant most respectfully
Denies the same, disputes the claim,
And utterly, rejectfully.
This maiden plaintiffs Thomas cat
Was filed with bad propensity
To prowl and fight, and scratch and bite,
And howl with great intensity.
The feline ferae naturae,
Would go with great velocity
Not after lats, but neighbors' cats,
And claw them with ferocity.
He was NANCY, fea-bi thing,
And mingled with bad company
No hlgh-born cat, aristocrat,
But nasty, vile, and vicious he.
His sire was mean and mean his dam.
And damned thro'out eternity
By neighbors sad and neighbors mad,
Whose dams meant not maternity.
Felis damage-feasant was,
Sic scripsit magma curia
To stop his breath and cause his death.
| Damnum absque injuria.
| We tried to rid US of this pest
| "The cat came back" and squalled de.
fance;
Not knowing that twas plaintiffs cat
| We thought we'd offer him to science
His fur and carcass plaintiff took,
And when from life that body parted
| She should be glad, for then she had
| A better cat than when she started.
And now we ask this learned court
For Judgment in this cause unholy;
In Justices name dismiss the claim
With costs and sootbe our melancholy.

Bobby's Tool Chest.

They gave him a chest full of wonderful
tools when he got to be six years old,
And he made up his mind to go forth in the
world and become carpenter bold
IL We glmlets and saws and hammers and
nails, I've jack planes and avis" said
i've rulers and screws. How can l refuse
carpenterman for to be?
"The first thing to learn is to hammer
NALL and he got out his hammer and
tacks,
And he hammered and hammered and ham,
mered away till he'd used up a half
dozen packs.
He nailed up the doors, and he nailed down
the floors, and he nailed them again
and again.
And he made no mistake till he hammered
tack through the nursery window pane.
Then he took up saw, and he tried its
teeth. 81 must now learn to saw" he
said;
And he sawed in two some bureau drawers,
and he sawed off the legs of his bed
And he sawed on the lock of the nursery
door till the teeth of the tool grew
rough,
And then he sat down and remarke ed to him
self, well, l guess 1 have sawn
enough.
II will now try the awl and the gmlet, too,
and learn what different kinds.
OF holes they make-for they're not alike
and he bored on the outside blinds.
He bored six holes in the shutter Stats, and
then made change again,
And tired his luck on the bureau top with
the beautiful two-inch plane.
And then, poor boy some one came in, and
=, what a fuss was raised
They spanked that boy for trying to learn,
when he thought he'd be surely
praised;
And his father was mad and his mother was
mad, and even his sister cried.
Because he'd taken her desk apart to see
what there was inside.
And the baby, too, was as wrathy as they,
because for little while
He'd used the ruler to find how wide was
the dear little fellows smile.
And that's why Boh-the poor little chap
has changed every future plan,
ana is gong to be a policeman bold instead
OF a carpenterman.

To Helen.

The old, brick schoolhouse on a windy HILL
A dozen years ago twas swept away,
But you remember, friend, as | do still,
The boys and girls who went there in our
day.
1 thought to-day, I'm sure 1 don't know
why
For who can tell by what unconscious
boons
The past is given back in memory p
How we read Homer Saturday forenoons
John Harris was the teacher, gaunt man
Who loved the classics; so it came to pass
To show us how Greek poetry began,
We read the Had in the reading class,
And Helen Morton,-I can see her now,
With that tall grace and those dark,
dreaming eyes,
The hair that made cloud about her brow,
And the rose-t1ush that on her cheek
When this, our Helen, read of her of old
What winning graces! What majestic
mienl'
1t seemed to us of her own charms she told
"She moves goddess and she looks a
queen.''
There was in school, one lanky, haf-grown
boy,
Born with Greek soul in Yankee frame
Who watched fair Helen's every breath
with joy,
And blushed for pleasure when he spoke
her name.
And when the master said "No modern man
Can of Greek Helen's charms form vision
meet"
That doting boy spoke boldly: ayes, can
L don't see why our Helen amt as sweet
Alas for fate NO lover ever knew
How sweet you We're, our Helen, Helen
DEAR
Only the grave that shut you from our view
Has clasped your beauty many "a weary
year.
That haunts me, as it did that awk ward
boy,
Until half believe it was your face
That burnt, of old, the topless towers of
Troy.

The Easter number of the New York
Herald fully met expectations and
was the first production of the kind evel
sent out from an American newspaper
office. Some idea of the magnitude OF
this great issue and the press facilities re-

from the fact that as each paper consisted
of ninety-two pages, the entire edition Of
503, 200 copies comprised the enormous
aggregate of more than forty six million
separate pages-a marvellous result with

Lost Music.

BY j. E. C. SAWYER.
But o for the touch of a vanished hand,
And the sound of a voice that is STILL
In what fair world, our darling, dost thou
dwell,
Since death hath thee released from earth
ly thrall?
o break this lonely silence Like bell
Thy voice 80 sweet did rise and fall,
Its joyous music seemed to ring through all
The clouds of care, the mists of doubt and
sim
When thou vast here we heard its ducet
call
Triumphant DER all worldly strife and din
We need it now. Though angels ring thee
round,
Speak to the sad hearts here so lonely left
With human love still pusing let the sound
OF thy glad voice give strength to us bereft.
hard it is in silence thus to go,
To hear no note while thou art singing so {!

the very best medicine for restoring the
tired out nervous system to healthy vigor

ELECTION FATALITIES:

The election this year was a
bloody one in Kentucky, as seven
men now lie under the ground,
shot to death during the heat and
excitement of he contest. At
Frankfort a street fight took place
over the negro vote, and during
the day four men were killed,
and at Mount Vernon a disturb
ance was created by some tongh
characters which resulted in the
death of three ana injury of
several others. In New York,
Judge Afford Walling, committed
suicide by shooting himself in the
head. 1t is thought the immedi-
ate cause of the act Was anxiety
over the outcome of the election,
his brother-in law being a candi-
date for SUI .o9ate of Monmouth
county.
