THE GRACE OF REMEMBRANCE.

Cwnnea for The Washington Heraid.l
You remember. don't you. before black
years
OF work and worry were washed in tears?
Is IL the man or the woman who cares
most
The what has been changed in to-day's
ghost?
Let your heart open, put your hand in
mine,
And lead me deep in to-day's divine:
Drop the burden your shoulders now bear
For dreams of youth and freedom from
care.
You remember. don't your Let mind mas
ter clay.
It's tie hour OF noon. and HES but day;
I'm not probing for tears, want you to
smile,
Give the old-tIme laugh, be glad for
awhile.
You remember. don't your Give your
soul speech,
Let nothing be hidden. each from each;
Come and take my hand. let's cross sor-
row sands
And wave good-by to these grown-up
lands.
Lean closer and smile with tender ewes.
You remember, don't you. tho grown so
wise?
Let's go back to Joys of early years.
Win sweetness again from a lifetIrnes
tears.
Don't your soul feel dear little creepings
That sob into forgotten Ieapings.
Hast thou no answer to touch OF mine
No incense OF joy before loves shrine?
Just remember. Honey. when these dreams
I start
It's because you're Juggling at my heart.
And love bids me the path of childhood
take
To make life sweeter for your dear sake.
Undaunted, my soul with it's strength
and its task,
At your threshold to rest is all that ask.
And like a child. I'll keep on my way,
Straight is the path. I'll go not astray.
Down sweet lanes of bloom. we used 10
TO know
Free limbed. ioose-haired. as a child may
go.
The fire OF youth and its hardihood
You are looking at me with bewildered
eyes
And viewing me over with mute surprise:
This TO my shame. when I reached your
door,
Ghost-like were the garments wore.
You've travelled far (and you smiIe).
How tired you are. come rest awhile:
To-day is the place, where God wants you
The present, the work of love to do"
THE grace OF remembrance is here,
right here,
You say, and it grows sweeter each year
The song of youth that used to be
Is richer to-day IN it's melody"
Your grown-up heart was not wise nor
deep.
Or out of my strength my words were
weak;
Across years and years. love you dear,
And as man TO woman I want you here.

THE wRECKING TRAIN.
Railroad Men Who Get Busy When
an Accident Happens.

Railroad Men Who Get Busy When
an Accident Happens.
From the New York Sun.
It takes just about five minutes for the
New York Central wrecking crew at
Utica, n. Y, TO get under way when a
wreck happens somewhere east of Kirk
Vile or west OF Albany, which is the US
ual territory covered by this crew, q dis
lance OF thirty-eight miles to the west
ward ana eighty-seven miles TO the east
ward Five minutes is the time required
If the wreck happens In the daytime
II the accident happens at night the use
Of the telephone gets every member of
the crew out Of bed In which case II
requires about fifteen minutes to get the
crew together and the engine hitched TO
the seven-car train. The wrecking az
gregation located at Utica is typical OF
the wrecking outfits of the Central rail-
road.
When two trains run into each other
and mess things up and hurt somebody
the wrecking crews first business is TO
care for the wounded. In Utica the New
York Central has the names of four ply
sicians on its list. and when the wreck
ing crew hears that some ore is hurt one
of these doctors is notified. II the wreck
Is a large one. not only are all four doc
tors taken along, but also all others who
can be obtained. The wreclxing train Is
also supplied with first aid to the injured
outfits
The wreeking train consists of seven
cars, the steam crane, the idler, over
which the boom hangs, with a cabin on
the other end in which ride the crane
engineer and the rieger; a dining and
sleeping car combined. in which the crew
eats ana sleeps; a tool car, blocking
car. which carries the blocks used in
blocking UP cars, and two cars loaded
with trucks which may be placed under
cars when wheels or axIes have been
twisted.
An ordinary wrecking crew consists of
the wrecking master. crane engineer
a riggeT. and eight wreckers The assist
ant train master accompanies the crew
to learn how the wreck happened and to
attend TO other matters. When the wreck
Is large the size of the crew Is increased.
The steam crane constantly keeps
steam up ready for business and the fire
is never drawn without the permission
Of the superintendent When the wreck
ing crew learns of a wreck the first avail
able engine IS hOai ed to the seven cars
and no time is wasted in arriving at the
scene of action.
The first thing the steam crane does is
to hoist the debris of the track Just as
soon as one OF the tracks has been opened

The Blue Bells of Scotland" Is
one Of the most popular of the many
popular songs OF the land Of the
thistle. II was written by Miss
Annie McVicar. a young Scottish
woman, who spent considerable of
her early life, in America The oc-
casion which prompted the words Of
this song was the departure OF the

title The New Highland Lad" In
referring to it he says:
The song has been lately intro
duced upon the stage. Originally II
was called The Blue Bells OF Scot
land. but was revised by Mrs. Jor-
dan. who altered the words and
sang them to a tune OF her own.
which suppressed the old air.
When Charles Mackay and Sir
Henry Rowley Bishop were arrang-
ing old English airs. this song came
under discussion Mackay says:
The Blue Bells OF Scotland is al
most invariably spoken of as a
Scotch air; but Sir Henry found rea-
son TO suspect that IL was English.
and urged me to write new words
70 IL, TO dispossess, IL possible, the
old song OF Mrs. Jordan. He was
induced 10 form this opinion by re-
ceiving from Mrs. Fitzgerald a
Sussex tune TO a song commence
ing: oh. have been a forester
this many a long day
Three or four bars OF the melody
were almost Identical with the Sec
ond bar of The Blue Bells of Scot
land but as the remainder bore no
resemblance to that popular favor
ite, and the whole tune was so
beautiful that it was well worth
preserving. I so far complied with
Sir Henry's wish as to write The
Magic Harp. 10 Mr. Fitzgerald's
kind contribution TO our work"
Sir Henry wrote. under date OF
the 2z1 OF October. 1852: ct am
strongly OF the opinion that when
Mrs. Jordan, the singer, composed
The Blue Bells Of Scotland she
founded her air upon that rescued
from oblivion for us by Mr.. Fitzger-
ald-or rather that see originally
intended to sing 1t to that tune
but finding some parts OF It too high
for her voice. which was or a very
limited compass, she altered them,
and the air became that Of The
Blue Bells Of Scotland"
Annie McViear was born in Gias-
gov. Scotland. February 81, 1855.
Her father was an officer in the
British army and the fortunes of
the service brought him 10 America
when his daughter was two years
old. One day the little Annie was
found trudging along a mile from
home, and when friend picked
her up she said. Il am going to
