But angels loved her more,
And they have taken her from us.

God had mead for that lovely flower,
That we pluck with tender care.
And placed within lovely bower,
Where oil is bright and fair.
The golden gate was open,
A tender voice said come,
And while f.reweiis were spoken
Nhe Hwestly entered hoyRe.

THE PANIC IN WALL STREET,

From Harper's Weekly.
The Office of one of the best known stock

Thursdays panic afforded more material

office. Every man present had gone to that
place actuated by what is possibly the
strongest motive power known to humanity

Steel, a.. said the senior partner, and
tnen, sitting down on a lounge, he sobbed
as though his heart would break-the man
sobs that rack the entire body The junior
partner, himself a man past middle age
looked at his partner vacantly and then
began to weep softly. The head clerk came
In, looked on his Chiefs and said huskily:
TRY Mr.. Blank: he Al help you. We may
pull through But the senior partner
shook his head, and between his sobs ga i'd:

the firm strolied in. His own fate depend

the three swolien-lidded weeping men and
began to rebuAe them profanely for their
cowardice, to blame them, In the mock
anger of an indignant friend for giving up
nope. But all the answer he received was
negative shakes from the Junior partner
and a mute wringing OF hands by the con-
fidential clerk. And on the lounge In one
corner Of the room the senior partner Of
that firm. man who was reckoned among
the popular New York millionaires on the
day previous whose straits were due to no
fault OF his own, but to the utterly unex-

presence Of others, repeated to himself
from time to time: Twenty years in Wall

Now that man lad a charming wife, and
a promising boy at college. He was a good
man In every sense. engaged In a perfectly
legitimate business. The firm never specu-
lated on its own account, and 1t was well
respected by his fellow brokers and by his
fellow church trustees. And he was about
to lose everything he had, everything that
made life pleasant to those he loved. In
