Gladys is winsome maiden,
Oh, perfect mystery!
One moment she is solemn,
The next she's in glee.
tell her 'sshe's dai-y''-
She crows and hobs her head
Just as if she understood
Each pretty word said.
Ill tell her .'she Is ugly"-
With quite an injured air
She gazes at my sober face,
With her little baby stare.
Then I say, my Great Grand Baby,
You darling little sceet.
All, me! she likes that best of all
By the way she moves her feet.
I bow. and call her "Queenie"-
She throws her head up high.
And looks as If her sceptor
And throne was very nigh
Yes. Gladys loves to listen
10 all yarns do spin;
1t never strikes her little pate
That its bit Of sin.
Oh! my precious, winsome Gladys,
Guardian angels guide your feet .
Through the mazes Of the Ear:h-path,
Till you. reach the Golden Street.

dispatch to the Evening Standard from
Odessa, timed 2:3O p. m. today. says:
The city rings with the reports of
rifles and revolvers and occasionally
a volley is fired. Every house and tene-
ment is bolted and barred. The intan-
try patrols are doing their duty per-
functorily, declining TO fire on the
mob unless they themselves are at
tackled. The Cossacks are said to have
lost over a hundred men by bombs
and shots from windows. Cossack
patrols carry carbines and have their
fingers on the triggers. The streets
are absolutely unsafe for civilians.
The casualties yesterday are be-
lieved to have amounted to 5000
killed and wounded. In the Jewish
quarters bodies still strew the streets
and sidewalks. Jewish women and
children were strangled and hacked
to pieces in the streets where the mobs
gained the upper hand. A Red Cross
doctor tells me that the Kishineff hor-
rors were repeated hundred fold. The
students alone saved the city from
wholesale sack and massacre. The
military are now placing hundred
machine guns at various points. Twen-
ty-six carts full of wounded have just
passed my door.
General KauIbars was called TO the
balcony of the palace this morning
by five thousand Loyalists carrying
imperial portraits and ikOns and
