In Memory Of Rev. Father Mackey.
Softly OH the morning brcezes,
Floats IL sound OF mourntul strain
Ills the bell of the Cathedral
Pealing forth DEATHS tale again.
AS those solemn sounds re-echo
On the Silly morning air.
Eyes are seen to fill with tears.
Heads are bowed in silent prayer.
For it tolls for one !, soldier.
Fallen on life's battle field,
One who strOve to conquer evil
And the right to ever shield;
Ills priest whose brow is circled
by "a wreath of thirty years,
Woven i'll Gods holy service
Years of labor seeking sinners
Who have straycd atar from truth;
Guarding those who tread the right
path
Teaching how to walk the youth.
Comforting the weary laden.
Solacing the wounded heart,
Silently i'll grief's sad hours
Bearing all alone his part.
No. not alone. for Jesus whispers
TO his soul kind words of cheer:
Tells of joys eternal waiting.
I.aborers in his vineyard here.
This is all he hopes or asks for,
His hearts treasures are above,
JOY and care alike are measured,
In the scale of Gods pure love.
But the gate for him has opened
And with joy he enters in,
Never more to taste of sorrow
Or to feel the breath of sin.
Father, are you gone forever?
Why your life so quickly passed?
Father Mackey's soul has answered,
''Heaven's joys are mine mt last"

So Runs the World Away.

Hear the gentle pit-a-pat
OF the little maid of three;
Underneath the Leghorn hat
Dimpled rosy cheeks has she;
While a dozen little others,
Little sisters. little brothers
Fresh as mosses over which are
coming waters running free,
Pink and white and sweet as roses
sweet as any bloom may be.
Running here and running there,
Chasing phantoms in the air,
Are the dozen little others and the
little maid of three
Hear the steady step and slow,
And the humming of song,
AS the lovers come and go
In the tumult of the throng;
And dozen little bubbles
Float upon their sea of troubles
AS the lovers with method their
meandering prolong,
AS the lovers steps are mingled with
the rapid steps and strong.
Still the lovers lOiter there.
Building castles in the air;
AS the lovers steps are mingled with
THE phantom cha sing throng.
Hear the rapid step and strong,
Hear the step of widest scope.
Which to earnest men belong;
Thrilled by fear and thrilled by
hope;
In the maclstrom ever busy;
Whirlng. swirIing growing dizzy
Like to seamen in a whirlpool, cling
ing to knotted rope;
Jostling, jccring, notwithstanding
neither sinner nor the Pope.
Fighting here and fighting there
Chasing phantoms in the air;
Some arc winning, some are losing
losing everything but hope.
IItiE llc SUI, Aiitll IhilSlS p!'
Hear the clanking of the cane;
Feeble steps and feeble eye.
Weary heart and weary brain;
But all propclling passion
In this throns of din and fashion
Keeps the weakened form a grasp
ing for the things he cannot gain.
Keeps the weakened muscles rigid
while his hopes are being slain.
And lie tottcrs here and there,
Chasing phantoms in the air,
AS he chascs fleeing phantoms-
chases phnntoms with his cane.
Hear the steps of old and young,
Hear the steps of grave and gay,
Firm and feeble steps among
Others in the passion play.
Here and there arc bands APPLYING,
Hithcr, thithcr. footsteps straying,
All is toll and all is .tumult. disap-

made the only run. In the sixth inning the Giants
got to Evanss and hit them freely, max

The Brooklyn team seems rather weak in the
box this year. The chances for victory would
be better for the Superbas If they added a few
more good tw1rlers to their string. McGinntty
pitched a fine game, and 1t looked if the home
team would be shut out. In the final inning, how
ever, the home team made two singles and one
triple sending two across the plate, and saved
itself from disgrace.

field, made many brilliant catches yesterday that
