YESTERNIGHT.
I loved , In nilcnco nursing
All the sweetness , all the smart ,
Secretly tlio tale rehfarulng
ret unfold tho' when my heart
JJrst went forth unto the maiden
All the world was winter white ,
Ana the summer nlr was laden
with rich fragrance yesternight.
Ycstcrove , what time the shadows
Deepened on the dais cd grass ,
Homeward wending through the meadows
I behold the maiden pass.
And tbo love , BO Jong unspoken ,
Bravely In the fading light
Pleaded for some word or token
Of requital yesternight.
Not to ear or heart unheeding
My Impassioned tnlo was told.
Nor In vain my wistful pleading
Bought her love u hoop of gold
Set with stones within still linger
Rays of Jud's refulgent light ,
Circles now a shapely linger
That was bare but yesternight.
LUDICROUS BLUNDERS
Committed by Ncictpapcr Reporter * Not
Quite Up lo the Trlclts of the Irude.
Detroit Free Press.
Competition ainonp- newspaper re
porters sometimes lead them into ways
that are dark and tricks that are vain.
A reporter was once sent to report the
sermon of a celebrated but very de
vout and solemn Presbyterian clergy
man. It was the funeral oration of a
distinguished member of his church.
The reporter did not rise early enough ,
and when he arrived at the church the
' { clergyman had finished. Waiting up
on him after the service he asked the
loan of the preacher's manuscript. The
obliging clergyman took it out of his
overcoat pocket and handed it to the
scribe , who , delighted at his easy task ,
wrote a hasty introduction , and , with
out further delay , went off to spend
the Sabbath with his best girl. It was
a funeral discourse , the subject of
which was a man well known in the
city for his great piety , sincerity , purity -
ty and benevolence. Being Sunday ,
j the discourse got into the printers1
hands , and the night editor was horri-
iied at its beginning thus :
"Among his friends and dupes he ac
quired by persistent hypocrisy a repu
tation for sanctity , which , by means of
a doleful whine and obtrusive cant , he
maintained to his very last breath. So
'inveterate was his habit that when on
his death-bed his spiritual adviser whis
pered that there was pardon for the
vilest sinner , he retorted : 'I am glad
of it ; there are so many of them that
need it so much more than I do , ' " etc.
Had not the editor put his blue pencil
through the whole article the city would
have rung next day with this scandal
ous discourse about this worthy man.
The obliging clergyman had , accident
ally , on 'leaving uis house , put on his
son's overcoat , and instead of his sermon -
mon had handed the reporter a maga
zine article , written by his son , about a
notorious and pious fraud who had died
in England about 100 years before.
In another case a reporter who was
on trial was told to "write up Sheri
dan" Gen. Phil Sheridan who was
expected in town the next morning.
Anxious to show how well he could ac
complish his new task , he resolved to
"scoop the other felloVs" by a long
and elaborate biographical notice.
. , Turning to the cyclopedia , he began to
T * ' read about Sheridan , but had scarcely
cast his eye over it when it was ru
mored that the general had arrived in
the city. Hurrying awav to get the
later and local facts about him , he had
to finish his biography without further
aid from the cyclopedia. Doubtless to
Sheridan's great surprise , he learned
from the next morning's paper that he
was an Englishman by birth ; before
coming to America he was the proprietor -
„ tor of a London theatre , and wrote
"The School for Scandal , " . "The Ri
vals" and other plays. Soon after his
" arrival in this country he abandoned
the stage and play writing for a mili
tary life. That reporter was given an
indefinite leave of absence.
An overworked reporter was on his
way to a fire a long distance oft' when
he met an acquaintance whom he asked
about the fire. Learning all the de
tails , as he supposed , he went back to
the office and wrote a vivid description
. / of the event. In the building , he said ,
"was a large quantity of sawdust , "
which only added fierceness to the
flames. "Several blocks were sur
rounded by the fire , and it was only
"with the greatest difficulty that the
flames were subdued , and it was not
until the building and all its contents
were reduced to ashes. " Much to his
consternation he discovered next day
that his friend was a practical joker ,
and that instead of a sawmill , as he
supposed , it was"an ice-houce that was
. on tire.
A reporter was sent to ascertain the
truth of a rumor that a well known
citizen had gone insane. That report
er's career ended then and there when
the paper next morning had the follow
ing paragraph : "There was a report
f-yesterday that something was the mat
ter withMr. Sander's head. It was as
sound as it has always been. There is
nothing in it. "
A reporter was sent to attend the
funeral of a prominent gentleman. He
arrived at the house , but finding no
signs of the event , concluded he had
come too late. So he thought he
would take his chances and "write it
up on general principles. " It so hap
pened , nowever , that there had been
some mistake about the matter. It had
occurred in the morning instead of in
the afternoon , and the clergyman who
attended the funeral was married in
the afternoon to a widow , to whom he
had long been engaged. And this was
the kind of notice that was sent after
him on his wedding tour : "The Rev.
Mr. Thomaston was present at the ser
vices at the house yesterday afternoon.
There is no man so welf adapted to
these solemn occasions. 'He impressed
every one present with his evident sorrow -
' row and pity for the heart-broken
widow and her afflicted children. He
told them that , although -they had lost
their stay and support , there was one
who would still be a father to them.
These words seemed greatly to comfort
them. Even their bereaved mother
could not have failed to be consoled in
her grief by the tenderness of the rev
erend gentleman , who himself betrayed
great emotion and could scarcely re
strain his tears. "
The most recent enterprise of this
sort has been achieved by two New
York papers , each of which had elabo
rate descriptions of the "Illumination
of Hell Gate. " The original locality
of this name is not believed to require
any other illumination than that afford
ed by opening the. gates themselves.
But its namesake in New York has just
'
been furnished with'an electric light.
According to the Herald crowds gath
ered along the river and were well re
warded by the magnificent spectacle.
They saw a dull glow high up in the
darkness of the night ; but an instant
later there gushed forth a flood of light
which grew brighter and brighter ,
broader and broader. The reporter
then portrayed the landscape as it lay
"bathed in silvery showers , and the
outlines of the bridge stretching like
some huge spider web from shore to
shore. "
As the lamps had not then been put
in place and the illumination had been
delayed a week , the previousness of the
reporter was neither gratefully ac
knowledged nor adequately rewarded
by his employer.

An Eastern Jlclle Comes to Omaha lo Meet
Her Afflnnccd.
Omaha Herald.
One of the most romantic and , it
is to be hoped , happiest , weddings on
record , took place at the Paxton hotel
last evening , when Lieutenant F. Jarvis
Patten , of the Twenty-first infantry ,
was married to Miss Hattie C. Resse , of
New Bedford , Mass. The romance be
gan in June , 1883 , when Lieutenant
Patten , then stationed at Boise Bar
racks , Idaho , went east on a six months
leave. He visited many places in New
England , spending most of his time at
his mother's home at Bath , Maine.
When his leave had about expired Mr.
Patten started to join his regiment , and
had got as far as New York when he
was recalled to Bath by a telegram in
forming him of the sudden and serious
illness of his mother. While there he
met Miss Besse , and when they
parted five days later they were en
gaged. Mr. 'Patten returned to his
station and was soon transferred to
Ft. McKinney. The matter ran along in
the usual way until a few weeks ago
when the young people agreed to meet
in Omaha on the 28th of October and
get married. Miss Besse arrived on
time and with her came her father and
mother and sister. The young lieuten
ant was also on hand , and greeted his
afilanced yesterday afternoon for the
: irst time since the betrothal. Later in
the-day a license was procured , and
last evening they were married in one
of the private parlors of the hotel , by
Eev. Mr. Harsha. The bride , who is a
beautiful brunette of magnificent pres-
snce , was dressed in a royal robe of
ivhite satin , en train , and wore a white
; ulle veil. She was attended by her
sister , Miss Kate Besse , who wore a
rich satin dress of street length. The
groom and his best man , Lieutenant
Hoffin , of the Fifth artillery , were in
'ull uniform , as was also Lieutenant
Dharles McQuiston , the only guest pres
ent. Miss Besse's parents were inter-
isted spectators of the ceremony.
Lieutenant Patten and wife will re
main in Omaha a few days and then
proceed direct to Fort McKinney ,
.vhere Mr. Patten Jias already secured
a comfortable home. Mrs. Patten will
be warmly welcomed at the post , and ,
as she is a lady of grace and refine
ment , will be a valuable social acquisi
tion to the little circle there.
Captain William H. Besse , the bride's
father , is a capitalist and ship builder
at New Bedford , and one of the best
known and most respected men on the
coast.
Wilbur F. Storey'f Klndnessto Animals.
Wilbur F. Storey , who died in Chica
go a few davs ago , was a hard unfeel
ing man in his general bearing , but he
had a warm side for those who properly - c
ly feared and flattered him , and one
distinguished quality , aside from his
conceded force and ability'which it is \
pleasant to discover and respect. It is fi
brought out in the following statement fia
by Mr. Frank Wilkie , his biographer fiA
and eulogist in the Times : Vl
It is a curious fact that , while Mr. Vls
Storey's "soul was like a star and a
dwelt apart" and his life was of him av asi
self and in himself , and that he shrank si
from human contact for so many years , siSI
he was very fond of animals. It was a SIll
common practice with him to pick up \
stray dogs which appeared to be lost si
and suffering from hunger or thirst , sib sih
and to take them home and supply sift
their wants. A familiar feature in his ft
home life was a , large , sleek , purring ftP ftb
cat on his lap , and with which he P
seemed to have an excellent under If
standing. He possessed many horses , IfB
and on no occasion was he ever guilty B
of cruelty toward them in the use of \v
the whip , or even harshness in his tl
voice when speaking to them. Such of
his acquaintances as have encountered
only the prickly hedge with which he
fenced himself in against the world H
would be surprised did they know how
warm and hospitable were many of the fc
recesses of the character within. fcoi

Childhood Troubles. 0
Who ever heard of old age old age ,
with its long and tender memory J
speak slightingly of the sorrows of
childhood ? This is reserved for the
I
preoccupied and callous middle age to
do. From the indifference which many
grown people exhibit toward the griefs
of the very young , it might be inferred -
that their own childhood had become
ic
no longer possessed aught of interest bi
for them. The little troubles of chil
dren ? But all trouble is relative , and biy
great and small , in this respect , are
movable terms. . Sorrow itself grows V (
fa
old ; even t e sacred vehemence of :
grief felt for the lately dead suffers a
mellowing change as the years lapse. m
How do we know but that in another ,
life the most considerable tribulations >
endured in ths take rank with the
troubles of children ? '

DIED AT THEIR POSTS.
An Engineer and Fireman of tha B. Jt 31 ,
Lose T/teir Lives.
Omaha Herald , 1st.
Switch engine No. 96 , on the B. & M.
railway , was tLrowrf from the river track un
der the Union Paclfle bridge last night , by a
turned switch , and its engineer asd fireman
were caught in the wreck. The engine was
running down from the B. & M. freight yard ,
pushing two box cars and drawing fwo. The
cars ahead broke loose , when the engine went
off and they ran down the track several yards
and jumped off. The engine rattled over the
ties for sir cur lengths after passing the switch
and then suddenly headed toward the river
and plunged up to its axles iu the clay along
the banks , just clearing the track as it went
off. The tank was dragged oil the rails , but
did not leave the track-bed , and a corner
crashed into the cab of the locomotive and
against the fireman and engineer , pinning the
men against the boiler head A gauge broke
and flooded the cab with steam , and threatened
to scald the driver and stoker past help.
The brakcman on the train emerged from the
wreck unhurt and came quickly to the relief of
the two engine men. Blankets were brought
and put over the broken guagc in an effort to
stop the stream of steam , which was partly ef
fected. The whistle and steam dome were
opened and all steam possible was blown off.
The prolonged whistling was the first signal of
distress to the railway men In the B. & M. and
Union Pacific yards.
A crowd of over a hundred men and women
soon gathered. Jack-screws were brought and
used topush back the tank from the engine
for a few inches. The first men who entered
the cab saw , as they thrust their lanterns into
the clouds of steam , the face of Engineer
Wilson , who turned his face toward them , but
did not speak. The wrecking party set to
work with axes and cutting as carefully as they
could to avoid hitting the men within , soon cut
away the lower part of the cab , and gained ac
cess to thra two men.
nThe angineerand fireman were both lying on
the deck or floor of the cab , the former across
the latter. They were taken out , one at a
time , and tenderly laid upon the ground , when
Dr. Hertzmann made an examination. Nearly
all but the oldest railway men had been hope
ful that the men could be saved and they were
slow to realize the truth of the doctor's report
that both were dead , so far as could be told
from the hasty examination , from scalding.
Charles Wilson , the engineer , resided at
Fifth and Division streets. He was about 35
years of age , has a wife , and has been in the B.
& M. service about six months , coming here
from the Wabash railroad.
Daniel Mahlon , the fireman , was about 30
years of age , andrcsidedat Seventh and Pacific
streets , where he leaves a wife and baby. He
had been in the service of the company for
mos.t of the last two years.
Both were highly respected and trusted men ,
and their families will have the heartfelt sym
pathy of every one in the community.
"Wonderful Efficacy. "
Some people are slow in telling what
good things have been done for them ,
but Mr. John P. Daly , of Gillisonville ,
S. C. , says he takes great pleasure in
testifying to the wonderful ellicacy of
Brown's Iron Bitters in dyspepsia , fever
and ague , and general debility of the
system. He has personally experienced
the most satisfactory results from the
use of this valuable medicine. Make a
memorandum of this , all ye whose sys
tems are run down. Brown's Iron Bit
ters will cure you.
Cremated in a Barn.
Several days ago , says a NewburgfWest Va. )
dispatch , a barn belonging to D. V. Laughey ,
near St. George , burned in the night. The
next day an examination of the ruins made
it certain that a human being had been cre
mated in the building. No one was missing in
the vicinity , and it was supposed to be a tramp
who had been seen in the city the day pre
vious. Recently some children playing near
the ruins discovered in a fence corner tlie
horribly burned body of a middle-aged man.
It is supposed that he succeeded in getting
out of the building , but was overcome and
died \vhere found. It is now believed that
there were two men in the barn. Closer
search of the ruins discovered a partially
burned hand.
Colorado Pool Zincs.
The meeting of the Colorado pool lines was
continued , says a Chicago dispatch of the
31st. The meeting completed its work of
fixing the territory of the pool as follows :
On the west , Denver , Pueblo , Colorado Springs
and all points on the Denver & Rio Grande
and junction points with the Denver & South
Park. On the south , all points on the Denver
& Kio Grande and Atchison , Topeka & Santa
Fe. All territory in Nebraska and Kansas and
competitive points on the Union Pacific in
Colorado. The Missouri river is the eastern
boundary. George H. Daniels was elected
commissioner and J. F. Tucker arbitrator. ,
3Ilss Astor's Wedding Dress. "
The wedding dress was made by
Worth and is said to .be one of the
finest that ever left his establishment
and is one of the finest ever brought to
America. The entire dress is made of
white satin , embroidered by the most
skillful ! fingers in Paris. The design is
clump of roses done in threads of sil A.

shining background glistens like the
sun on new fallen snow , and is certain R
ly most appropriately termed "frost b.oi
work. " The front and sides of the of

skirt are artistically garlanded with tl
half wreaths of orange blossoms. The IEPI
basque is short , opening in a V in PIfl
front , with sleeves reaching to the el fl
bow , and finished with wide ruffles of PI

What a Healthy Woman Can Do ?

Forty or fifty women , many of them inoi
foreigners , were yesterday employed at oi
tiusking corn in the extensive cornfields clPI
