SOME COMFORT.
q'rom the pittsburg chronlcie-reIegraph

From the Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph
When the snow is on the garden,
And the fee Is on the walk.
And the monthly bill for fuel
Brings about a painful shock,
There's a pleasing consolation,
And we feel inclined to sing,
For it's cheering TO remember
That we're one day nearer spring.
When we slip on icy pavement
And go down with fearful crash,
Then arise in Indignation,
Using language that is rash,
1t is soothing to remember
Spring is coming on the hop,
With its mud to serve as cushion
When the walker takes drop.
When the mercury is tumbling
And the northern breezes roar,
And we're bowling at the scoundrel
Who neglect9 to shut the door,
1t is helpful to remember,
Ere a chair at him we fling,
That the door he now leaves open
He'll be closing in the spring.
When before the fire we shiver,
With a bad attack of chills,
And at intervals We're gulping
Down lot of quinine pills.
It's some comfort to remember,
AS we bolt the bitter stuff.
That the baamy spring is coming
And Wen soon be warm enough.
Yes. the gentle spring is coming,
With its flowers. birds and bees.
With sweet doors of the blossoms
Borne upon each passing breeze.
And though now the blasts of winter
Rush and roar and sharply sting,
II is cheering to remember
That were one day nearer spring.

by Mr. Cleveland.

Rome, Feb. Sin the chamber of
deputies today, Count BONN, under sec
rotary of state for foreign affairs, an
nounced, in reply to questions as to the
governments intention regarding the
delay of the republic of Colombia in car
rying out the award of President Cleve-
land in the Cerrutti affair that courte-
sy impelled the italian government to
give Colombia time for consideration;
but, he added, the government had in
formed Colombia that Italy felt it Co
lombia's duty to pay the award.
Some time before he relinquished the
presidency in favor of President Nc
Kinley, President Cleveland who was
appointed arbitrator in the claim made
by the italian government against Co
lombia during Mr.. Cleveland's first
term, rendered a decision against Co.
lombia and in favor Of an italian claim
ant, under which Colombia must pay
Italy 100000. The decision of Mr..
Cleveland was severely criticised by the
newspapers of Colombia,
The claim had it's origin during the
revolution of 1885, at Cali department
of Caucu, republic of Colombia, and Ger
ruti, an italian subject who possessed
large commercial interests, was sus-
pected of assisting the revolutionists
against the recognized government of
Colombia, and his estates were de-
stroyed, his stores were looted and his
books were burned in consequence.
