LOVE AT PLAY.

Have you forgotten how we used to weave
Gu childish fancies for the coming yearsf
I In my pride would have you then believe
That life meant love, and love could hold NJ
tears.
We built our castles in the shifting sand;
/ w you with the 1ow'rs that fastest
fade;
We wandered through an all enchanted land;
We loved the sun and never dreamt of shade
Shall we again be children and forget
How once we parted and how dark our night
In that fair pathway let our feet be set
Which leads US back into the land Of light.
Well weave fresh garlands on that colder
shore,
But-do you whisper something in my ear
While upon mine your heart beats close once
moref
Why play at love, you say, when love is here

re these the fairy h

Are these the fairy hosts,
The million marching men,
Who after fogs and frosts
Sprang up In glade and CLIENT
Their spears were silver gray,
Their iavelins gold and green,
That like a fountains spray
Shattered the light between.
Their banner the wild rose
Or honeysuckle bright,
Terrible to their foes
When they went out to fight.
Now sweet, SO sweet, in death
They lie, like autumn leaves,
With all their golden breath
Gathered in golden sheaves.
Now sweet, SO sweet, they lie
With all their comedy length;
Piled high in heaps so high
And withered all their strength.
Alack, that goodly show
OF spears and CALVES and swords,
That Maytime long ago,
When these were belted lordsi

walking sticks.

The sixteenth century is that in
which the walking stick became not
merely a useful implement, but an ar
ticle of fashion, dignity and luxury. In
the seventeenth century it was gold
headed and made of rare woods. 1t was
a sign of leadership.
For a long period there was little
variety among Englishmen in the ma
terial used for the majority of walking
sticks, The "'oaken towel, as it was
pleasantly termed when an enemy was
to be rubbed down, shared popular
ity with the crab tree cudgel, which,
among rural folk especially, was much
valued and classic from the conflict in
"Hudibras, when
With many a stiff thwack, many a bang,
Hard crab tree on old iron rang.
Classic, too, is that stout oaken stick
which sturdy DR.. johnson, who, like
Knox, ''never feared the face of living
man" provided himself with when he
went to the pit of the little theater in
the Haymarket in full view of Foote,
who had announced his intention of
taking him off" ON the stage-an in
tention which, in view of the stick, he

FIRE DEPARTMENT NOTES.

Yesterday Chief Cline took the Nj
agra engine to the east end of Nine
teenth street, where it was given a
thorough test, and incidentally a lot OF
rubbish was washed into the creek.
The valves of the Vigilant engine
have been examined and put in good
condition.
Chief Cline will overhaul the work
ing parts of all the fire apparatus as
fast as possible, and put everything In
the best possible shape.
There are indications of a renewed
agitation among business men for the
establishment of Salvage wagon In
the department, and councilmen think
the insurance companies should bear at
least portion of the expense.
The project to establish new chem
zeal engine in the eastern portion OF
the city will. apparently. go through
the Finance Committee of Council at
the coming meeting.

er fire company over there The ward

GENERAL NOTES.
TELEGRAPHERS TO

The Baltimore and Ohio Company
have issued a bulletin regarding the
cleanliness of their employees. The or
der is principally for the benefit of the
trainmen, although the employees at
stations are erected. Hereafter the
men must appear on duty dressed in a
neat manner; no loud neckties or tan
shoes are to be worn. They must have
clean collars and their shoes must be
BACKED The company, of late, have
had many of their men disobey this i'm
portant rule and have decided to rem
edy it. The brakemen are also in
structed to call out the name of each
station, and also to announce the name
of the next stop. This is something
that is important and will be of much
benefit to the public. The B. & 0. in
the east have long since required their
men to appear on duty always looking
neat, but on this end of the line the
order has never been enforced very
strictly. This order, however, is ex-
pected to have its effect and the men
will no doubt follow their instruc-
lions to the letter.

THE SECOND BIENNIAL CONVEN-
TON

For the twelfth time in the history
of the Order of Railroad Telegraphers,
its members delegated for that purpose
are about to meet in convention. On
the fifteenth day of May, 1899, at
Peoria, H., delegates from every State
in the Union, Canada and Mexico, will
assemble to discuss and act upon mat
tiers that are of vital importance TO
railroad telegraphers, whether mem
bers Of the order or not. For the in
formation of the younger members it
might be well TO explain that from
1886 to 1895 the organization held its
conventions annually, but the matter
OF biennial conventions, which had
been discussed for long time was
brought to focus at the convention of
1895, and the laws were amended pro-
viding for biennial conventions instead
Of annual. The new arrangement has
proven satisfactory and effects a great
economy for the organization.

THE CAPACITY INCREASED.

During the past ten years the capac-
ity Of freight cars has been increased
from eight tons to fifty tons. 1t has
been demonstrated in the process that
it is impracticable to build them of
iron. The Michigan Central tried the
experiment, but found that in summer
the metal gathered so much heat that,
when the cars were opened, the work
men had to wait fully quarter of an
hour before they could go in to unload
them. The biggest cars are made of
wood.

LARGEST DEPOT.

The banner, or the largest railroad
station in the world, has just been
opened in Boston. The train shed has
capacity of four hundred and four
passenger coaches at one time, and
thirty-two express trains can be I'M
loaded simultaneously. The train
shed covers fourteen acres and the de-
pot grounds, including the train shed,
thirty-five acres. The platforms will
accommodate 100000 people, and every
day more than 1000 trains, in and out,
can be handled. The cost of this
mammoth terminal was $14,000,00O, but
it has only taken eighteen months to
build it.
