CHILDLESS.

The west is as pink as baby's toes.
Thc stars from their coverts peep;
Kissed by the white moth mods the rose;
The breezes are breathing, "Slcep."
The shadowy bat through the NAPLES
fits;
The street is still and dim:
And there in her window my neighbor
sits.
Singing her cradle hymn.
1 know those words that she gently
DO you wonder, forsooth, that
should shape my mouth to the mothers
tunes,
The flow of lullaby?
l know, l know! In my dreams full oft
Have 1 entered dear, sweet land
And cuddled body, dimpled, soft,
And fondled tiny hand.
Oh, God, my dwelling is bare and lone,
Though riches its walls invest;
Take all-and give for my very own
A watch Ger a wee ones rest,
Or show, pray, to my aching eyes
Why thou by thy will has wrought
That my heart should brim with it's
1ullabies,
My arms hold naught, hold naught!

He Was in the Civil War.

A charitable young married woman
on the South Side recently had an ex-
perience which served to dampen her
ardor somewhat, although she still
contends that charity is correct as a
broad principle, and should not be
abandoned unless it is conclusively
proved that it is misplaced. The case
in question occurred a few days ago.
when poor and decrepit-look1ng wom-
an called at the door and asked for
assistance. Hers was a sad story.
Her husband had been killed while
fighting the battles of his country, way
back in the civil war, leaving her with
several children to support. She had
done this nobly for years, but now
they had grown up she had found
them ungrateful and had nothing to
rely upon for support in her old age.
This was case which seemed to the
young matron to be worthy one, If
there ever was one, and she prepared
to relieve the distress of the applicant
Immediately. AS she was gathering
up viands, clothing and other neces-
sites, preparatory to showering them
on the needy one, it occurred to her to
ask one question:
"Why is it, she asked, that YOU
have not applied to the government
for pension; the government would
surely grant you one?"
Il did, replied the widow, sobbing
pitifully, 'but they refused to grant
it,
"Surely that is most extraordinary -
unused the young matron; ibid you ev-
er get any reason from the pension de-
partment why they would not grant
it,"
"Oh, yes, num-" replied the suppl.

"1m drowning," cried the child.
"Well both be killed!'
Even in the face Of this very posi-
bic result the boy felt embarrassed at
speaking to lady, albeit so small and
helpless one.
''Oh, g'wan," he answered. "Just lie
easy. I'll save yer"
Then his eye fell upon the ferryboat.
She was coming back! Rows of eager
faces lined her rails, and he heard a
cheer and wondered vaguely what they
We're 'hollering" about. The little girl
was terribly heavy, and the weight of
his clothes was dragging him down.
Once or twice the water washed over
his face, and he reused himself to fresh
endeavor and thrust out frantically
with his legs. Hours seemed to elapse
before louder shout directed his at
tention once more to the boat. He
heard the swinging swish Of a rope
near his ear, and, grasping it, knotted
it securely about the child and him.

saved. But as the rope frightened
something seemed to crack sharply in
his head, the boat swelled to giant
size and floated away into the air, and
he was sinking-slnking
He came to himself slowly, wonder
ing if he was dead. There was hum
OF voices all about him, and a hand
had been thrust within his shirt and
pressed close to his heart. He decided
not to open his eyes until he could COL
lect his thoughts. What a beating he
would get for this! Once more he MUIR
INJURED, "Oh Gawd!" and this time it
was not prayer.
A man was speaking somewhere near
him!
Il tell you, if that boy lives, he'll
never 60 barefoot again. No, sir! He's
mine from this time on He's saved
my Marion, and I'll make his fortune
for it. Yes, sir!'
And another voice was replying, ooh,
he'll live all right, bully little chap"
Curiosity overcoming fear, the bow
opened his eyes. He was lying upon
the deck, and it was the college man
whose hand was at his heart. His
companion, holding a flask, knelt at the
other side. There was a circle of anx-
ious faces all about him, and facing
him stood an elderly man, fumbling his
watch chain and repeating emphatical-
ly, I'll make his fortune Yes. STRIP
There were tears in his eyes and roll
ing down his cheeks, and the bow i'm
mediately conceived a contempt for
him.
"Cryin' like a kid bout nawthin. ="
he reflected
"Look at that" exclaimed the COL
lege man. Hes all right. You're all
right, old fellow. Brace up, now!"
The elderly gentleman relinquished
his watch chain and knelt beside him.
MY boy" he cried, you've saved
my Marion's life, and I'll make your
fortune for it. Yes, sir! Do you know
what you are? You're a hero, that's
what you are. Yes, STRIP
A hero! Like those in the newspa-

speakers eyes.

speaking Of prisoners" said the
Captain, there was case at Lexing-
ton, Mo-, where Mulligan was be-
s1eged, in which one of our boys sur
rendered and was sent back into our
lines without parole or pledge of any
kind. A little Dutchman of the Twen-,
ty-third Illinois, on the third day Of
the battle, took the place Of the man
who until he was killed handled our
six-pounder. The Dutchman swabbed,
loaded, and fred the gun himself, and
was as cool about it as if he were on
drill. After the white flag had been or.
dered up by Major Becker Of the home
guards the third time and as often
hauled down by the men, nearly every
man broke for the works around the
college. The little Dutchman, however,
stood by his gun, and e. A. Jellison
stayed with him, using his musket as
efficiently as the Dutchman used the
six-pounder.
"After firing away all Of his own am
munition, Jellison fired all that he could
find In the cartridge boxes Of the dead
about him, and at last tied his hand
kerchief to his ramrod and went over
to the hemp-bale breastworks, behind
which the Confederates were posted,
and was received by General Rains,
who asked if Colonel Mulligan surren-
dered. Jellison replied, 4 don't know.

General Rains wrote a demand for
surrender, and sent it to Colonel Multi
gan by the hands of Jellison, who, hav-
ing made no promises, delivered the
message, got himself another gun and
supply Of ammunition, and was in
line when the firing began again.
Neither he nor any other man who
made that heroic defense had been in
the service more than 100 days.
