TIE POET DID NOT CONTRIBUTE.

81 am quite willing to contribute to the
--er-amusement Of the evening" inter
posed the amateur poet, who was bursting
to read his latest, and couldn't get any
body to take the hints he threw out.
There was sound like groan from a
corner of the room, and guest went out.
The others prepared for the worst, except
one elderly mar, who pulled down his
waistcoat with an unnecessar show OF
determination.
"The title of this little effort" the poet
went on, drawing roll from an unsuspect-
ed pocket, is The Raindrops on the Roof. y
"Well, of course it dses," exclaimed the
elderly man. "Where would you expect it
to drop? When the rain drops on any
well-regulated house, it naturally chooses
the roof Perhaps you expect people to
take the roof off when it rains? Or you
think that we imagine that it drops on the
foundation, or in the umbrella-stand
Everybody else knows that rain drops on
the roof, young man, and they don't want
you to write a poem TO tell 'cm. II you
can write one that will explain why it
rains when q man goes out in new hat
and without an umbrella, we're open to
hear ID"
The poet did Lot contribute any further
to the amusement OF the evening.

"St down, friend ~ said the illustrious
host, politely indicating chair.

/ hesitating
II think he would, very much. Pray

"Now, just look hereAnow Amt you

hands on the back of the chair, which for
SOM reason or other he did not take.

likewise your steration here as gives you

The people call me William Henry

grounds and when he sat down on the
curb.stone, she cussed himself gray - as
his wife said.

"MYSELF-UND GOTT."
When and by Whom the Famous Dia-
lect DOggerel Was Written.


The now famous poem was written under
peculiar circumstances in Montreal in
October, 1897. The poem as it was in the
original, consisted of thirteen verses, not
eight, as published throughout the world
during the last two years
The occasion upon which the poem was
written was the Emperor Williams speech
upon the divine right Of kings and his own
special mission upon earth. At that time
A. NJ. r. Gordon, Scotchman by BIRTH
and whose real name was A. McGregor
Rose, was member of the Montreal
"Herald" staff. He had been in the habit
of writing verses upon different subjects,
and was looked upon as q very bright fell
low, indeed, The city editor, turning to
him, said =
'Give us poem, Gordon on the En-.
peror,"
In less than an hours time he turned
out thirteen verses, which were entitled by
him KAISER & Co." not "Hoch der
Kaiser" The matter was sent up to the
printer just as it was written, and by some
mistake She foreman of the composing room
only picked up eight verses in type, leav-
ing the other five verses on the galley.
The paper went to press and Gordon, who
was very particular about his matter being
strictly correct, got one Of the first copies
off the press. lie at once saw the mistake
and the form was recast, not, however, be-
fore few hundred had been sent into the
mailing room for the foreign mails. Thus
the fact that only eight verses were copied
in the papers which printed the poem at
the time. In the second edition it was
given in iull and signed A. NJ. X. Gordon.
Here is the poem in its original form =
Der Kaiser of dis Fatherland

He reigns in Heafen and always shall

Philadelphia, May 25.-The health au-
thorities have discovered many cases of
what IS supposed to be smallpox among
the negro population of Nicetown, in
this city The settlement in which the
smallpox was found has been doubly
quarantined. The entire neighborhood
is terrified by fear of the spread of the
disease. Sixteen cases, all negroes, have
been taken to the municipal hospital,
the assistance Of the police being re-
CURED in removing the patients, who
resisted the attempt to isolate them.
The hospital authorities express the be-
lief that the cases are indeed smallpox
of the graVest form.

STRIKERS SWARM TO WORK.
Satisfactory Ending of the Dock
Troubles In buffalo.

Troubles In Buffalo.
Buffalo, May 25.-The clouds of trou-
BILE which have hung over this city fol-
the past five weeks were dispelled by
bright hopes for business prosperity.
The dock laborers, who have waged an
earnest but particularly peaceful wal
against their employers, having gained
almost everything they demanded,
swarmed along the docks this morning,
looking for work.
The supply was far in excess of the
demand, owing to the stagnaton of
traffic during the recent strike, but now
that the blockade has been lifted this
lack of work will soon disappear. and
the almost hourly arrival of grain and
package freight laden vessels at the
port will surely renew the usual busy
aspect of the shipping and railroad dis
trict.
All the troubles of the strikers have
been obliterated under most stringent
and binding agreements and, with the
exception of the abrogaton of the con-
tract system, they have been granted
every demand they made. All along the
line of docks from the export to the
Raymond elevators there gathered a
crowd all anxious to work, and as many
of them as could be accommodated were
Immediately placed.
There was no friction between the
new bosses and the applicants, and
those best qualified to pass upon the
situation say that under the new agree
ment there will be very little chance Of
any further trouble. Grain scoopers
freight handlers, ore and coal shovelers,
all agreed to return to their respective
jobs, and the marine firemen, who had
struck in sympathy with the others, an
ticipated the revival of business by 60
ing to work first of all.

Preacher NatTes Found Guilty

Muskogee, l. T., May 25.-Andrew J,
Mathes, the second of the 30 defendants
in the celebrated Seminole burning
cases. has been found guilty Mathes
was a preacher and at the time of the
burning OF the Indians was present and
prayed loudly to God to save the souls
of the boys, but made no effort to save
them from his fellow men. The testi-
mony revealed the fact that there were
$50 persons present at the burning. AS
in the case of Deputy United States
Marshal Jones, who was convicted last
week, the preacher was tried for kid
mapping. The court will proceed with
the other cases.
