SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.
True Eminence.

True Eminence.
When man is gaining knowledge
In the workshop or the college.
He sets himself the intellectual task
OF patient preparation,
In the course of education,
To answer questions other folks may
When at last his erudition
Puts him in a high position
When he is due to supervise affairs.
d, He has no need depressing -
To be one who does the guessing,
He's now the man who writes the
=. questionnaires.
He can in a manner breezy,
AS he takes existence easy,
Observe the workings OF the human
mind,
Causing various agitations,
With prolonged interrogations
On every topic known to human kind.
He need not be regretful
If betimes he is forgetful
OF the answers to the puzzles he pre-
pares-
The reward Of great endeavor,
And Of effort strong and clever,
Is to be the man who writes the ques-
tionnaires.

An important work performed by
the matrons OF the Bureau of Police
of which little is heard is the care
OF lost children. OF which there were
fifteen last month At times few
are brought in. then there will be
several calls within brief space Of
time from different sections OF the
city, and the corridors surrounding
the female quarters will for a time
ring with cries Of children.
Most OF the children are white,
ranging from daintily clad kiddies
to the other extreme. II is seldom
a colored child is brought in lost,
the records OF the police only show
ing four within a space OF seven
years. Many OF the children are in
such state that an immediate bath
Is necessary; and while there is
nothing to compel the matrons to
perform this task, they do not wait
for such orders but take care Of the
little ones.
Most lost children are claimed
within three or four hours from the
time they are brought in, but oc-
casionally they remain over night,
while frantic parents are searching
for the lost tne instead OF calling
at the police station first
When the : Iungsters are brought

with a wonderful collection of toys
that is kept for that purpose.
