THE OLD COTTAGE CLOCK.

Oh, the old, old clock Of the household stock
Was the brightest thing and neatest
Its hands, though old, had touch Of gold,
And its chime rang still the sweetest.
Twas a monitor, too, though its words wsSI
few,
Yet they lived, though nations altered,
And its voice, still strong. warned old and
young
When the voice Of friendship falteredl
"Tick, tickl'' it said. Quick. quick. to bedi
For ten I've given warning;
Up, up and go, or else, you know,
You'n II never rise soon in the morning.
A friendly voice was that old old clock
As it stood in the corner, smiling,
And blessed the time. with merry chime,
The wintry hours beguiling.
But cross old voice was that tiresome clock
As it called at daybreak boldly
When the dawn looked gray DER the misty way
And the early air blew coldly.
"Tick, ticki' il said "Quick, out Of bed,
For five I've given warningi
You'll never have health, you'll never get
wealth.
Unless you're up soon in the morning.
Still hourly the sound goes round and round,
With tone that ceases never,
While tears are shed for the bright days fed
And the old friends lost foreverl
Its heart beats on. though hearts are gone
That warmer beat and younger.
Its hands still move. though hands we love
Are clasped on earth no longer.
''Ticx, ticki" IL said. ITO the churchyard bedl
The grave hath given warningi
Up, up and rise to the angel skies
And enter heavenly morningl"

THE SAMOAN ARRANGEMENT.
Declared That There Is No Danger of
Hitch In Proceedings

London. Nov 2s.-It is officially reported
that the statement that the United States
has rejected the agreement between Great
Britain and Germany regarding Samoa
and has submitted a new draft of an
agreement, is misleading. A representa-
tive of the Associated Press has been in
formed that the exact status of the
Samoan question is as follows:
Consequent upon the signing of the
Samoan treaty between Germany and
Great Britain to which the United States
had signified its assent. there was drawn
up a new form of agreement between
Great Britain and the United States. This
was necessitated by the new order of
things. but in nowise affected the validity
of the British agreement which
included spheres of influence in Africa
American interests. The statement that
the agreement has been rejected has BEEN
based. according 10 British officials. upon
the suggestions made By the Tn .teI States
of a change In the wording OF the draft
Of the agreement between herself and.
Great Britain
These changes are entirely grammatical
and will be. acceded to. That tic United
State submitted a new treaty affecting
ally denied, as. IL is pointed. out that the
United States. though consulted was not
a signatory TO The British-German treaty.
IT is presumed that the United States
has persiing with Germany an agreement
similar TO that with Great Britain. but in
relation TO. the draft over which difficu.-
ties as 10 the wording arose. Germany has
no concern. The foreign Office expresses
entire satisfaction with the progress OF

He is in favor of removing the debris

is GREAT GAME PRESERVE.
Deer, Elk and Bear Increasing In
Yellowstone Park.

Washington. Nov. 2S.-Acting Super
intendent Brown of the Yellowstone
National park. in his annual report to
Secretary Hitchcock, announces total
of 1873 visitors to the park during the
year. He recommends an appropria-
ton Of 100000 for projected improve
ments. including many new roads and
bridges. Legislation is recommended
to make the forest reserve bordering
on the southern limits a part of the
park.
1t Is believed the antelope in the park
have increased within the last Two
years; bear are increasing and con-
stantly breaking into buildings; deer
are increasing; elk are rapidly increas-
ing and now number from $4,000 to &c.
0c0. but scouts report that 5000 died
during the winter. There are probably
fifty or more buffalo in the park.
Coyotes are far too numerous and
poisoning them will be tried. The re-
port says that as game preserve the
park is probably the greatest in the
world.
