Forgotten Years.

RpAAtA
When the dark night Is falling
over moor and lea.
] hear sad voices calling,
Somewhere out at sea.
! hear them as the pillows
Dash their CTests OF foam,
Against the lonely portals
OF my sUa-girt home.
i ask the clouds that hover.
GhDst-llke overhead.
What means these sounds OF wailing
When the day haiti fed
Are they the lamentations
OF the ones who sign
Tor love that was TctUrned not
In the days gone by2
Who In existence dreary.
Md the wastes of sea,
Cry out unto the Father
Master, make Us free
As IL deCrecl by heaven
They OF all should gTieye,
When world and worldly children
Hall the welcome eve.
II Is the years forgotten.
With their Joys and woes.
That comes in mournful voices
When the daylight goes.

Tommy Hesser was in sore trouble
during the first part of the week. Joe,
his Hambletonian colt, betrayed his
confidence. He drove Joe out to Clear
Greek. The grass is excellent along
the banks, in spots where there are no
rocks. The grass was green and looked
inviting to the colt-at least Tommy
thought so-and turned Joe loose to
Craze, while be caught few bass. Joe
was contented for quite while, nib
bling the tender, succulent grass, until
a band of range horses made their ap.
pearance on the opposite side of the
creek. It did not take him long after
that to decide between the grass and a
romp with those horses, the romp win
ming, and that was the last Tommy saw
of him for three or four days, and a six
mile walk back to town was staring him
in the face when one Of the boys from
the range happened along and brought
word of his dilemma to one of the liv-
cry stables, who sent conveyance to
his rescue. Tommy says now that "Joe
is an ungrateful beast. He has PAM
pered him, petted and caressed him,
from the time he was sucking colt,
and then to think he would run off and
leave me afoot1 six miles from home.
I'm going to sell, or give him away"

VIM. Daily, ex-locomotive engineer
and an all-round good fellow, concluded
to spend ten days or two weeks in the
mountains for the benefit of his health.
Our friend Jack Woods happened to be
in town from his Aztec mountain ranch
above conclusion, and he prevailed on
Jack to take him to the ranch and en-
tertain him until it was necessary to
return to town for more chuck, which
was last Tuesday. William, upon his
arrival in town, Immediately visited
his old haunts in search of his boon
companions. The first crowd he got
together he began to boast of his Prov
ess as sportsman, his unerring aim
and the number and size of the game
he had killed. The oftener he told his
story, the larger the game got and the
greater the number, until he got to
killing elephants, lions and tigers with
32-caiibre Smith & Wesson pistol.
After listening to his extravagant sto-
ries we hunted up Mr.. Woods, who told
quite different story. He said that
every time William got out of sight OF
the house he was lost. At one time he
was gone twenty-four hours, and at no
time during the twenty -four hours was
he over four hundred yards from the
house. AS to his killing game, Jack
says he shot at chip-munk one day.
about forty yards from the house. The
chip-munk started for his nest, which.
happened to be in tree close towhere
the valiant sportsman was standing
William thought the blarsted animal
was coming for him, and came tearing
into the house, slamming the door af-

GRocERs ON PARADE.
With the California Commercial Travellers They Traverse Busi-

The city statesmen ceased from their im- portunings yesterday afternoon. To- gether with large number of the grocers. some in barouches ina some in buggies, they paraded along the principal streets with a brass band. Their idea was to attract attention to the banners. which each buggy bore. announcing that the joint picnic of the Retail Groc CTS Association and the California Commer- cial Travellers Association was to be held at Schuetzen Park on Wednesday.
 F. w. Thompson of Sherwood & Sher- wood acted as grand marshal for the parade. His assistant was E. A. James of the Dairymen's Union. The vehicle about which the principal interest cen tered was a barouche in which rode Joseph Stulz, the president of the Grocers' Association, and James R. T. Mershon, the president of the Travellers Associa- ton.
 Grocers, both In the association and out are to close their stores on Wednes- day. Special preparations have been made to insure great success. There are to be over 300 gate prizes alone, and there will be a lot of odd games.
