A COY THAT | KNEW.

A boy that l knew when the skies
were all blue
And fields of the morning were spark
ling with dew,
With a smile on his face and smile
in his heart,
He walked from the phantom OF
trouble apart;
And his laughter was sweet as the
lit of song,
For he knew not the care Of the world
or it's wrong
The past and the future might bury
their rue
The day was enough for that boy that
knew.
A youth that l knew as he stood where
the way
Leads down to the mists and the toll
and the fray
Bore a smile on his face and kept
faith in his soul.
And Hope. with her promise, For you
is the goal!"
Though others were crushed and
though others might wear
On their foreheads the emblems Of
doubt and despair,
He would win in the strife, standing
stalwart and true,
For achieve" was the word of that
youth that I knew.
A man that | know, worn weary and
old,
Looks backward on years that his
failure have told:
Looks backward to hope, with prom
Use no more,
To the faith, like a wrath from the
country of yore;
To the visions that faded, the faltering
feet,
The wall of the bugle that called to
retreat
And it's o for the morning. the sheen
of its dew
And o to go back to the boy that l
knew!
Success.

New Workers and Street Railways.

New Workers are Hindoos in the af-
fairs of the city, and the man who
stands up for his rights or carries pub
lie spirit to the point Of private in
convenience, becomes at once a
heroic figure. Seven passengers on a
trolleycar who kept their seats, when
in violation of a city ordinance the
conductor ordered them into the car
ahead, are the wonder of their fellow
citizens. There was nothing to show
that it was not a through car, but the
conductor paid no attention to their
protests. and sent the car over the
same course again without even revers-
ing the seats. Back they went to
the lower end of the island. with the
wind on the back Of their necks. and
up again and into the car-barns. Even
then they remained. protesting. till
finally they wore out the law-breakers,
who took them home to geT rid of
them. Next day the seven brought
suit, not. they said. for their personal
benefit, but for the public good No

SOME HINTS IN DRESS.

Simplicity and style are two points
which a well-dressed woman can never
afford TO ignore, but simplicity is not
cheap. Trimmings often hide defects
of style, and simple materials require
all the more care in their arrange
ment. We shall see a great many
Tussore gowns with a thick make of
lace trimming during the present sea
son, and these will be arranged in
close pleats and made with slightly
full bodies. A pretty style is to
fun boiices. A pretty style is
TO have wide insertion
carried round the hips to either
side Of the front, breadth, and then to
the feet mingling with pleats. and the
insertion is again repeated above the
elbow and at the wrist. The blouse
bodice Is by no means a thing of the
past though it is less bloused than il
was Box pleats figure on the skirts
and bodices of many gowns, and these
are inset with lace or trimmed with
embroidered motifs. Many Of the soft
silks and washing dresses will be
made in this way.

day experiences with them will
illustrate how | treated them in my
youth.
Il managed to secure a baby
anaconda several years ago, and kept
him for time in my studio in New
York city. One day, however, ! want
ed to remove him to my home in Long
Island, so l stuck the little fellow-he
was about three feet long-in an
overcoat pocket, put a soft glove over
him, and made for the ferryboat.
"A short time after | was seated
and engaged in reading my paper,
noticed a man by my side get up
rather hurriedly and take seat in
far corner. Pretty soon another neigh
Dor did the same thing, and then the
whole cabin stared in my direction.

was the matter with my personal ap-
pearance, so / preened my whiskers,
readjusted my tie, and examined my
hat for dents. But everything was in
good order, as far as | could ascertain,
and / was still in the dark as to the
embarrassing gaze of the commuters.
"At last, in a second attempt to dis
cover what was the matter, happen
ed to swing a hand around to my side
and it struck against something
clammy. | looked down and there,
waving from side to side, with foot
of his body out of my pocket, and his
tongue making lightning-like darts,
was the anaconda that l had forgotten
all about
but the sequel of the incident was
quite as amusing. One of my neigh
bors had witnessed the whole affair,
and when he saw me on the boat a
day or two later he started some
pleasantly at my expense.
why, gentleman, he said to the
crowd around us, L dare say he has
several snakes in his pockets this
morning And with that he dived a
hand into the nearest pocket.
! "A second later the man gave a howl
that was heard all over the boat; and
then l remembered that just before
left home had put several cray fish
into that pocket. One of the fish had
nipped the mans hand, but il took me
some time TO convince him that he
had not been bitten by an anaconda"

by imprecation, reform by magic, is
his rule, and though often convulsed
with rage at the sight Of wrong, he
would not miss a dinner engagement
to right it. 1t is true especially of his
attitude toward street railway COM
panes. About the time when in an
other community the president, vice
president, secretary and treasurer
would be dangling from the elevated
ties, the New Yorker is planning let
ter to an editor which he forgets to
write. Not that we counsel violence;
we merely marvel at the absence of

New Workers have, it is said, the
power of debating, or of folding up
like old-fashioned hatracks, and there
is a story that once when Broadway
carload inhaled in unison, the whole
side of the car burst out. Be that as
it may, they dovetail better than most
people, and in coming home of an
evening it is almost always possible
to scoop a place for yourself out of
your neighbor's frame. Down to the
Office like box of cigars, and home
again like bunch of bananas, the
New Yorker is an ideal passenger
from the stockholders point of view.
He thinks it is law of fate, but the
civilized observer knows it for the
perfect flower of personal phlegm, and
wonders at the forbearance OF the
companies in not piling citizens one
on top of another. Yet the New York
er will bleed if you prick him, and cry
out if you snatch away his food. But
he is a mollusk in his citizenship, and
what the street railways give him is as
good as the old bivalve deserves.-Col-

OFFICERS TAXED TOO HIGH.
Those in the British Army Must Have
Private Income.

The commission which has been in
quiring into the question of the private
expenditures of subalterns in the Brit
ish army has made its report, says the
Evening Post, and with its report has
made several recommendations which
may or may not be adopted. 1t finds
that, under present conditions, the
initial outlay for subaltern in regi-
ment of the line averages $1,000. The
average $3.50, to meet which he has
$3.50 pay. leaving a balance of $500 to
come out of his private income.
In the cavalry these figures become,
respectively, $4,000, s1,406, and $500.
1t is pointed out, however, that in the
infantry many officers reduce the
initial outlay to $500, while in the
cavalry it is more often $4,000. From
year to year an infantry officer needs
from $500 to $3.50 private income, and
a cavalry officer, at the most conserva-
tive estimate, $500. OF course, some
regiments, owing to the scale in which
their living is pitched, are much more
expensive than others. In the "crack"
cavalry regiments private income of
from $4,000 to $500 is absolutely
essential to the subaltern.
The commission has recommended
that the war Office field kit, furniture
for home stations, at nominal rent,
contribute toward mess, support the
bands, and in the cavalry supply the
charges. This would mean a saving
to the infantry subalterns Of $3.50 in
the initial expense and s35 or $40
year In the cavalry the governments
supplying charges, saddlery, stable
gear, and groom would mean a saving
of 1900 in the initial expense and
about 5000 a year.

THE GLOVE APPLE.
Revival of Fragrant Keepsake of the
DAYS of Elizabeth,

Among the most interesting of the
recent revivals of ancient feminine
arts must be noted that of the
fragrant keepsake of old times, the
Glove apple, or apple stuck full of
cloves. In the ornate times of great
Characteristic who left two thousand
frocks in her extensive wardrobe
one reads of oranges stuck full of
cloves. But her physician, John Caius,
advised patients to "smele to an old
sWete apple to recover their
strengthe," and perhaps the Glove
apple originated from this ancient
tonic.
In our -grandmothers day the
making of a Glove apple ranked as a
genteel accomplishment and the gift of
one a graceful and welcome present
In more recent times this art still
fingered on, for Mrs. Alice Morse
Earle says that when she was little
girl her mother taught her to make
one. This was in the war time, when
spice was high priced commodity.
and therefore the maker was Obliged
to be careful not to waste the cloves.
Twenty Glove apples were recently
made by woman who had promised
herself as child to make a barrel of
tnen1 When grown up. These she dis
tributed as holiday gifts, and in every
case the old fashioned spicy token of
regard was received with delighted
surprise.
Surely there is a future for the Glove
apple. At SICK beds, in hospitals, on
the desk of a business woman il
would be a pleasant addition, while
the making of this article would be a
pleasing occupation for young or
elderly women.

NO ACTION TAKEN BY POST A.
II. p. A. Postponed Meeting Till
President Krauss Can Reach Here.


President Krauss Can Reach Here.
Post A of the T. P. A., which called
a meeting yesterday afternoon to take
steps in the effort to induce the South
ern Railway to enter the interchange
able mileage arrangement with the
railroads of this territory, did not meet,
because of the absence of President
Max Krauss and the further fact that
Mr.. Krauss wired the post to do moth
ing until he reaches the city, as he
has an important communication bear
ing on the subject.
Mr.. Krauss did not make known
from whom the communication had
been received or the nature of its con-
tents, but it is supposed that it was
sent by Mr., S. H. Hardwick, general
passenger agent of the Southern Rail-
way, as it has been with him that the
correspondence has been carried on by
the r. P. A. in the effort to secure
the arrangement. The meeting will be
held next Saturday afternoon, by which
time it is expected that Mr.. Krauss
will be in the city.
The recent statement made that the
Southern Railway does not sell inter-
changeable mileage books is an error;
the books are only good, it is true, on
certain roads north of Chattanooga and
southwest of that place, some nine or
ten lines in all, but these books are on
sale at all points along the system,
including, of course, Savannah.

one. The members of the corps here

ing by the Russian artist Suchorowsky,

are like great strains of music--they

SCHOOLS TEACHING
is AGAINST GRAFT.
Supt. AshmOre Agrees With Mayor
Myers on "Graft' Subject.

Supt. Ashmore Agrees With Mayor
Myers on "Graft" Subject.
Supt. Otis Ashmore agrees heartily
with the sentiment expressed by Mayor
Herman Myers regarding the public
schools teaching the children to abhor
graft"
Il thoroughly agree with the senti-
ment expressed by the Mayor in his pa
per on the graft evil, regarding teach
ing an adherence of it to the public
school children. We are doing that now
and each day the children are talked
to on the subject of politeness, and the
wrong of cutting and marking build
ings, and mutilating plants and flow
ers. The result of this constant teach
ing Is making itself felt throughout the
city.
If the teaching is to have its full
force the hearty cooperation of the
parents of the children must be given.
They have charge of them for nineteen
hours of the twenty-four, and we have
only the remaining five hours. Unless
the principles inculcated at school are
carried out in the parental teachings,
they will lose much of their value.
The power of example must not be
forgotten. Our city officials must show
an adherence of graft if they wish to
generate the same feeling in the rising
generation"
