THE JOURNALS POETS


Battle of San Jncinto.
Through all the weary watch Of night
The stars their sentry kept,
Where. dreaming Of the morrow's fight.
The hostile armies slept.
And some in happy visions led
Far from the flowing river.
From that dark torrent, rolling red,
Shall come returning. never.
Upon the rivers lofty banks
The Texan army lay.
The bright sun rose above their ranks
With fierce and flashing ray.
So rose the sun OF Liberty
Upon that splendid morn.
That all the world might proudly see
A new republic born.
Within the shadow OF a wood
Beyond the rivers marge.
The Mexican. In battle. stood
The Texans angry charge.
And high above the cannon roar.
And wild above the rout.
Arose the cry that terror bore,
1.-The Alamo!' their shout.
In echoes die upon the plain
The bugles' silver notes;
The rifles pour their leaden rain;
The cannons' smoking throats
Are vomiting their fires of death:
wreathed in a sable pail
Are the stern combatants beneath
Whose banners rise and fall.
With Houston and with Sherman then
We swept them. horse and lance:
Before our brave. pursuing men
They fed with coward glance.
We drove them to the rivers marge-
They turned and stood at bay
And after that last dreadful charge,
A human bridge they lay.
Ye martyrs Of the Alamol
Ye sons Of Goliad!
The battered bugles OF the foe
Are silent. now. and sadI
Awake. We spirits Of the deadi
Arise from out your pyres!
For bloody victory has fed
The vengeance of your sires!
or Victory is born a start
For her at Freedoms gate
Shall rise from out the smoke Of war
An independent State.
For her shall Freedoms bells be rung.
Shall Freedoms voice be raised.
For her shall Freedoms songs be sung
And Freedoms God be praised.

BOGUS POLICENAN'S GRAFT
HOW OFFENDING WHEELMEN
ARE HELD UP.
A Man With a Tin Star and Club
Has Been Raking In the Coin
From Cyclists.

There are numberless gratis for
grafters, but none that excel either in
cunning or effect one that the police
discovered yesterday. There is a man
on East South Temple street who car
ries club and wears tin star and
spends his evenings behind luxuriant
growth of bushes alongside the re-
stricted bicycle district. And when a
poor home-going wheelman steals 81
lently along the pavement, out jumps
the man with the club and commands
him to halt. He hats. Then the man
says: 'I'll have to arrest you for vio-
lating the ordinance" and the citizen
looks shamefacedly down at his handle
bars.
The man then says: eff you get in
court it might cost you S., and I be-
lieve You didn't intend to do wrong
I've a good notion to let you go, but
I'll have to put up bail for you. I
guess it won't be over 50 or 49,"
The pedaling citizen thinks Of his
wife and children and in another mo-
ment dives deep into his trousers and
gives the officer the required amount,
first having gained the assurance that
his name will not appear in the pa

Lett complied with her request, and

Has Available to Fill Existing
Vacancies.

night to consider, among other mat
tiers, the assignments of teachers for
the school year that opens next Mon
day Superintendent Cooper, who was
present, informed the committee that
he had been unable to complete the list
because Of several vacancies.
He wishes to thoroughly acquaint
himself with the material available so
that the various corps of teachers can
be evenly balanced. Professor Cooper
said he did not intend to make many
changes. II have thought it WISE" he
went on, mot to disturb the teachers
any more than 1 could help. 1t seems
to me desirable to have them remain
in the same district as long as pos
sible.
In this way they become acquainted
with the constituents of their schools.

less there was some excellent reason
for it," Professor Cooper added that
he hoped to have the list of assign
ments ready to submit to the board at
tonight's meeting. 6t7
The superintendent called the COM
mittees attention to the crowded con-
dition of the Hamilton school last
year, and suggested that the bound
airy line between it and the River
side school be moved up from Fourth
to Third South. This would take 100
children from the former to the latter.
The committee adopted the recommen-
dation.
1t was decided that, In view of the
impossibility of completing the Emer-
son school annex until ten days after
the opening of school, to have the
children who would naturally go there
attend the Hamilton school for the first
few days. This will be arranged by
having one set of pupils attend school
from $3.50 until 1890 and another set
from 1 until 4:30.
