SADDLE HORSES A SPECIALTY

 

I The lilacs in my garden blow.

Wide meadows ring my garden round.
In that green wood wild violets grow

And pale frail cuckoo flowers are found.
For all you see and all you hear

The city might be miles away,
And yet you feel the city near

Through all the quiet of the day.

Sweet smells the earth, new washed with rain.
Wet leaves gleam in the moonlight pale.
And in the wood behind the lane
I hear the hidden nightingale.
Though field and wood about me lie.
Soft hushed in dewy deep delight,
Yet I can hear the city sigh
Through all the silence go! the night

For me the skylark nests and sings;
For me the vine her garland weaves;
The swallow folds her glossy wings
5T0 build beneath my cottage eaves.
But I can feel the giant near,
Can hear all day his and slaves weep,
And when at last the night is here
I hear him moving in his sleep.

Oh. for a little space of ground.
Though never a flower should make it gay.

.Where miles of meadow lapped me round

And leagues and leagues of silence lay!
Oh. for a wind lashed, treeless down,
A black night and a lonely way,
A silence deep enough to drowu
The voice that mocks me night and day!
-New York Tribune.

The Famous Englishman’s Resignation and

Prophetic Message to the Khedive.

A correspondeLt writing to The Scot-
tish American says: One chilly mom-
ing at Suez, in the winter of 1879- 80,
I received a message from Colonel Gor-
don. He had just landed from Suakin,
and wished to see me. I found him seat-
ed in a room at the old Suez hotel, with
his black secretary and trusty factotum,

 

Mohammad El Tohamy and a few-

friends, including the governor of the
town.

Poor Mohammed El Tohamy, who was
destined to see his master fall at Khar-
tum and probably shared his fate, was
looking cold and miserable, and I no-
ticed he was sipping some hot mixture
of which the aroma did not seem fam-
iliar.

On my entering, Gordon exclaimed:

“I have resigned the governor gon-
eralship of the Sudan and am return-
ing to England. The khedive’ s ministers
dared to send me instructions, and so I
have resigned. Now, tell me honestly,
what will the world say of my work
in the Sudan after the years I have
spent there? What is the apparent re-
sult?”

I said something to the efl’ect that his
name would live and be remembered.

“Aye, ’ ’ he rejoined, ‘ ‘but what visible
trace remains of my exile and labor? It
is now God’s will that I should abandon
my task, and there is absolutely noth-
ing to show—nothing for the world to
gaze at except”——he added this with a
curious smile and pointing to the shiv-
ering son of the tropics at the other side
of the table—“except, perhaps, that I
have taught my Mohammedan secretary
to drink hot teddy at 10 in the morn-
ing 1’

Certainly Gordon’ s work was not in-
tended for show. At Alexandria he had
an audience with the late khedive,
Tewfik Pasha, at which he tendered his
resignation, and then, removing his fez.
the badge of allegiance, addressed some
wordsof stirring advice to his highness,
“as from an independent English gen-
tleman. ” Before embarking for Europe
Gordon wrote a famous telegram to the
khedive—“Mene, Mene, Tekel, Uphar-
sin”—which was shown to me and to
the correspondent of a great London
newspaper, but it is a question whether
it was ever dispatched from Malta. In
any case, it was curiously prophetic.
Within two years the Sudan was in
open revolt and Egypt under foreign
control.

‘verse to Interference.

Both A "
At the corner 01: Fourth avenue and

Smithfield street a lady from Glenwood
entered a crowded outgoing car. Tue
conductor knew who she was, and that
she resided in Glenwood. He suspected
that she had made a. mistake, and that
she thought she was on a Second avenue
car, so he crowded up the aisle and po—
litely inquired:

“Where are you going, lady?”

“That’s my business, " she tartly re‘
plied.

The conductor said nothing more, and
the car sped along through the dark,
crossing the Monongahela through the
covered Tenth street bridge and rapidly
putting space between it and Glenwood.

When it entered the big Knoxville in--

cline elevator and stopped, nobody said
a word. After a minute’s wait up the
precipice it started, leaving the spar-
kling electric lights far below.

“My goodness,” screamed the Glen-
wood woman to the conductor, “where
is this car going?”

“That’s my business, ” dryly replied
the conductor.—Pittsburg Dispatch.

Doubtful Sympathy.

Pat Regan had a. face on him that, as
he had once remarked himself, was an
“oflinse to the landscape.” Next to his
homelin'ess his poverty was the most
conspicuous part of him. An Irish neigh-
bor met him 1ecent1y, when the follow-
ing colloquy ensued:

. “An how are ye, Pat?”

‘ ‘Moighty bad, intoirely. It’s shtarva-
tion that’s shtarin me in the face. ”

, “Is that so? Sure, an it can’t be very
pleasant for ayther of yez. ”—Montana
Colombian.

A Patriot’s Dinner.

Marion, the American Revolutionary
general, once feasted an English officer
on sweet potatoes baked in the fire by a
darky and served on a strip of bark,
with a log for a table. It is said that
the ofiicer resigned and went home, say-
ing it was no use to try to conquer peo-
ple who could live on sweet potatoes.

ment upon the traitor. There is no pos-
