A babe on the breast of it's mother
Reclines in the valley of love
And smiles like beautiful lily ~
Caressed by the rays above.
A child at. the knee of his mother,
Who is counting her decades o
prayer,
Discovers the cross of her c1iaplet
And kisses the sufferer there
A boy with a rosary kneeling
Alone in the temple of God
And begging the wonderful favor
To walk where the Crucified trod.
A student alone in his study,
q With pallid and innocent face,
He raises his head from the pages
And lists to the murmur of grace
A cleric with mortified features,
Studious, humble and still,
In every motion a meaning.
In every action will.
A man at the foot of an altar. :.
a Christ at the foot of the cross,
Where every loss is a profit
And every gain is a loss.
A deified man on a mountain.

With one he is raising the living,
With one he is loosing the dead.

How swift they 90,

With their winds of woe
And their storms of tears, :
And their darkest nights whose shad.

Are lit with the flashes of sta1riest

And their sunshiny days in whose

The clouds of the tempest-the shad

And ah! we pray

Though the brows of tomorrow be

' With love and with beauty, with life

The dead hearts of yesterday, cold on

For the heart so true
To each old year, cleaves;
Though the hand of the new
Flowery garlands weaves,
But the flower OF the future, though
fragrant and fair,
With the past's withered leaflets may
never compare:
For dear is each dead leaf-and dearer
each thorn
In the wreaths which the brows of OH
past years have worn.
Yea! men will cling,
With a love to the last,
And wildly fling
Their arms round their past!
As the vine that clngs to the oak that
falls,
AS the ivy twines round the crumbled
walls;
For the dust of the past some hearts
higher prize
Than the stars that flash out from the
futures bright skies.
And why not so?
The old, old years,
They knew and they know
AN our hopes and our fears:'
We walked by their sidc and we told
them each grief,
And they kissed off our tears while
they whispered relief;
And the stories of hearts that nav moi

In the hearts of the dead years arc
buried and sealed.
Let the New Year sing
At the Old Years grave;
Will the New Year bring
What the Old year gave?
All! the Stranger Year trips over the

REPAIR OF SIDEWALKS.
Property Owners Must Put Them i'll
Shape or the City Will Do the
Work for Them.

Director of Public Works John l..
Roche has decided that the sidewalks
in every part of the city must be placed
in proper repair. and with this end in
view he is having notices prepared 10
he sent out to all property owners
whose walks are in bad condition.
His intention is to have employees
from the bureau of highways and sew
erS make an inspection of all the side
walks in the city and report to the
superintendent all those that are not in
proper shape. n notice will be sent the
property owner 10 make the necessary
repairs, and if this is not done within
n reasonable length of time the city
will have the work done.
The Act of 1891 provides that the
property owner shall be liable for the
cost of such repairs as the city, after
a reasonable length of time, shall make
and gives authority for the filing of a
lien against the property The cost can
also be sued for in an ordinary action
in assumpsit.

AN INCREASE
Traffic on the Trolley Cars Compare
lively Large-Strikers Say They
Are Not Discouraged.

Two days of heavy, cold rain. accom-
panied by fitful winds. has had the eff
feet of apostasizing many of the menu
bcrs of the country's big pedestrian
club.
The company claims that on Monday
1t did sixty per cent. more business
than on any previous day in the six
weeks the strike has been on, and that
yesterday the receipts We're even larger
than those of Monday. Even the Belle
vue-Stone avenue line. on which cars
We're run for Il week al a time without
carrying a single passenger. had three
or four passengers on several trips
made yesterday. The Hyde Park and
South Side cars also carried a few pas
sengers on most of the trips, and on
the newly opened up Green Ridge Peo-
pies line cars We're frequently half
filled. The Petersburg, Dunnore and
Quincy avenue cars, which have been
carrying passengers all along. were
generally comfortably filled yesterday.
The strikers are not at all uneasy
over the increase in the patronage.
They claim that the increase is not
even as large as they themselves feared
it might be if bad weather set in, and
assuretily far from what the company
hoped for.
The company now has fifty-onc cars
running. Its regular equipment is be-
tween seventy and eighty.
An entertainment was given last
night for the benefit of the strikers by
st. Johns Total Abstinence and Be
nevolent society, at ST. Johns hall.

crowd present, and neat sum was re-
allied for the strikers treasury.

the benefit of the strikers will be given

Quoted by a committee of the strikers.
The strikers are securing temporary
employment, and according to one of
the committeeman. all except fifty or
sixty are earning something right

PITCHER" A SUCCESS
1t Made Fine Impression at Eliza
beth, N. j.

Elizabeth, y. j.. Nov. I2.--Iiathryn
kidder scored the greatest success Of
her career tonight in Jacobs theatre
as Molly Pitcher. This was the verdict
of everybody In the immense audience,
which included Governor Voorhees,.
Mrs. Grover cleveland, Congressman
Fowler and Richard Watson Glider. II
was generally admitted that Miss Kid
der's triumph tonight was even greater
than her celebrated Madame Sans
Gene. From beginning to end. her
mastery of the character of the famous
American heroine was perfect in every
detail and her realization of the famous
scene in the battle of Monmouth, where
Molly Pitcher loaded and fired the cam
non, was one of the most impressive
sncctacles ever seen on any stage. In
the lighter scenes her humor was so in
fectious that the spectators frequently
indulged in shricks of laughter.
Miss Kidder's supporting company is
one of the strongest ever sent on the
road In support of star. 1t was se-
1ectcd by her managers. Messrs. Delche
and Brennan. for the New York rum
which will commence after the holi-
days. The principal roles are in the
hands of Lester Lonergan. Olive Oliver
T. G.. Hamilton, Mabel Roebuck and
Ore $. Cash.
There were several curtain calls at
the end Of each act. and speeches were
made by Miss \idder and the author
of the play. Glen MacDonough. The
success of the play was so complete
and instantaneous that the prediction
We're freely expressed by several New
York theatrical managers who We're
present that Molly Pitcher is destined
to live for several years on the stage
of this country.

Judge II. w. Archibald yesterday flied
with the clerk of the United States Cir
cult court at Trenton, n. j.. an opinion
in which he decides for the plaintiff in
the suit of the II. Thomas & Sons COM
pany against the Electric Porcelain
and Manufacturing company, Jonathan
CoXon and Fred NJ. Locke.
This Is a patent case that has at
tracted considerable attention. Both
parties manufacture an ins,,lator for
the support of wires carrying high ten
sion electrical currents. The plaintiff
company manufactures the insulator
under a patent granted j. w. Boch.
March s. 1885, and it alleges that the
insulator made by the defendants is an
infringement on this patent.
The defendants do not dispute that
there has been an infringement, if the
Boch patent is u valid one, but they
attack it's validity on the ground that
it has no novelty and the process in
volved in it's manufac.u is not a pat
entable one.
They further allege that the idea of
the Boch insulator is borrowed from
an insulator which Fred NJ. Locke tried
to have patented in 1897 and for which
Il patent was refused.
In making insulators for high tension
wires it is essential that the insulators
themselves shall be insulated, so to
speak. and to effect this they are made
of two or more pieces of porcelain, one
fitted into the other like two cups, one
slightly smaller than the other, and a
glazing material placed between them
for the purpose of fusing the pieces
SniiI1v n al
LOCKE PROCESS.
In the Locke process. the space be-
tween the inner side of the larger bowl
and the outer side of the smaller bowl
were filled with Il glaze and then the
insulator was annealed.
The Boch process follows the Locke
process as far as the Locke process
goes. but it goes much farther accord
ing to the claims of the plaintiffs and
the findings of Judge Archibald
The Boch process demands that Guns
when put in the annealing oven shall be
placed with the rims upward. and that
IN a channel, Grooved out between the
rims. an extra quantity of glaze shall
be poured so that as the annealing and
fusing process goes on the filling up Of
the most minute space is assured
The Locke process did not call for
the extra glaze and the cups were
placed in the oven without regard to
position. The consequence was that
there being allowance for the contrac-
tion of the porcelain while it was being
baked. there was no positive assurance
that the whole space between the cups
would be filled.
The Locke process, Judge Archibald
says. was one that any ordinary potter
might follow. The Boch idea of pro-
viding absolutely for the perfect filling,
i'll OF all the space existing before balk-
ing or caused by the baking is that of
genius, and therefore an invention.

that the defendants are infringing it.
