I am nlono in my chamber now,
And tliu midnight hour Is near,
And tho f.igot's crnck nnd the clock's dull tick
Are the only sounds I hear.
And over my soul In Its solitude, .
Sweet fcellugs of sadness glide.
For my heart and my ej cs are full when I think
of the Utile boy that died.
1 went ono night to my father's house
Went homo lo the dear ones alt
And softly I opened tho garden gate,
And softly tho door of tho hall.
My mother camo out to meet her son
Slio kissed me nnd then she sighed,
And her hend fell on nry neck and she wept
For the Utile boy that died.
And when I gn?cd on Ida Innocent face,
As still and cold ho lay,
And thought what a lovely child ho had been,
And how soon ho must decay i
' Oh Death, thou loicst the beautiful,"
In the woe of my spirit 1 cried,
For sparkled the eje nnd tho foiehcad was fair,
Of the little boy lhat.dled.
Again I n 111 go to my father's house,
Ho home to I ho dear ones nil,
And sadly I'll open the garden gate,
And sndly tho door of tho hall,
I shall meet my mother ; but nei er moro
With her darling by her side ;
Hut she'll kiss mo nud sigh, nnd weep again
For the little boy that died.
I shall miss him n hen tho flowers come,
In the garden where ho plaied ;
I shall miss him moro by tho fireside,
When the Honors have all decayed.
I shall see his tojs and empty chair.
And the horse he used to ride;
And they will speak with a silent speech
Of the little boy that died.
1 shall see his little sister again,
With her playmates about tho door ;
And I'll watch tho children In their sports,
As I never did before;
And if, In the group, 1 see a child
That's dimpled and laughlng-ej ed,
I look lo see If It may not bo
The llttlo boy that died.
Wo shall go home to our Father's house,
To our Father's house In the skies,
W heio the hope of our souls shall havo no blight,
And our loiu no broken ties.
We shall roam on the banks of the rli er of peace,
And bathe In Its blissful tide.
And one of the Joys of our heaven shall bo
Ihellttlu boy that died.
And there f re, when Flu silting alone.
And the midnight hour Is near ;
When the fagot's crack and the clock's dull tick
Are the only sounds I hear.
Oh, sweet o'er my soul In lis solitude,
Are the feelings of sadness that glide ;
Though ir.y heart and my cj ca are full when I think
Of iho llttlo boy tint died.

A DKAMATIC ST011Y.
The manner in Which an Injured .Man
Settled Accounts with the Desperadoes.
A gentleman who has lately returned from
a visit to Dallas, Texas, tells a story which
is rather dramatic and may be true. The
The story was told to him by an old hunter,
,1.1. l.o.l I- - - . .,1111 tltlS
lounging about one of tho Dallas hotels.
"I could tell you a good many queer sto
ries, stranger, said tho old fellow, in conver
sation with the gentleman, "but I don't
know of any that'ud bo more likely to kind
'o striko you than an experience of Sum
Long's in Harrison county, years ago. Texas
wiua tough place then; you kin bet on
that !"
And then the old fellow told the story,
which can scarcely be as graphic in print as
in his terse idiom :
Years ago Harrison county, in Texas, was
tho haunt of about as dopcrnto a gang of
ruffians as ever infested any district west of
the .Mississippi. Their number wjis so great,
and their organization so complete that they
set tho but half-administered law at defiance,
carrying on a career of daring crime with
impunity, and making tho region an unde
sirable place of abode for all honest citizens.
Ostensibly hunters or horse traders', the
desperadoes made stock stealing their chief
occupation, never hesitating to commit n
murder when necessary for their safety or
lor the execution ot any of their rascally
plans. The controlling spirit in this desper
ate organization was n giant named Dick
Iteddctt, who from his exceptional ferocity
and daring, exercised almost despotic con
trol over Ins followers. A special pride of
this man was in his extraordinary skill in
the iiso of the rille, no ono in tlio band be
ing ablo to complete with him in what was
at that time considered tlio chief accomplish
nient of n western man.
It was a favorite practice; with tlio band to
congrcgato at bomo one of tho few small
stores tcaitered through tlio country and
there engage in shooting matchcs,and it was
upon one of thcao occasions that Sam Long,
the hunter already memi()ncd,chaiiced to bo
present. Long wits a quiet, modest fellow,
who lived with his wife and child in a small
cabin in their neighborhood, and who made
hunting his constant occupation. Ho never
appeared at the storo save to exchango skins
and furs for provisions or ammunition, and
was widely and favorably known for his
sobriety and honesty. Upon tho occasion
just referred to, when SamLong chanced; to
come while tho desperadoes were engaged
in ono of theirshooting matche.s,thcy wished
him to take a part in tho sport. Hohcsi
tated at first, but finally, not wishing to in
cur tlio ill will of tho rulUans, consented.
His skill with tho rillo was known to bu
something remarkable, and tho desperadoes
were not greatly surpri-ed when ho defeated
them all avo tho captain of tho baud. This
man had not engaged in tho sport,but, when
Long had vanquished all others, ho came
forward with thoassiirniico of an easy victory
Tho shots were made, and, to the btiiprise of
all, Long gained tlio day. The rngo of the
leader of tho ruffians knew no bounds ut
thus being defeated in tho presence of hi;
followers, and although refraining from any
violence on the spot, ho intimated darkly to
tho hunter that ho would yet "get even with
him." Long paid llttlo attention to the
threat, and soon nflerivard returned to his
cabin.
At just iiusk, some days later, r-amwas
lying on tho Hour of bis cabin pluying with a
child, while his wife,busy with her cooking
asked Long In go lo an adjacent spring and
bring somo water, a request nlilch ho
promptly complied with, leaving his gun in
tho house, a somen hat liiiuainl cotirso with
him. He had reached tho spring, and was
just looping to fill tlio pall which ho car
rlcd, u hi n he was borne down by a sudden
attack from behind, bound tecurcly, and
drugged tonio yards into tho woods, When
ho recognized bis ns.-nikuitsho knew what to
expect. He hud fallen Into tho bands o
the Uedde'lt gang, and tho leader was about
to "get even with him " Long was stripped
and bound to u tree by order of tho captain
A bupply of hickory switches wu obtained
and then the captain took one of them nnd
began tho whipping, announcing with an
oath,that no man could beat him or his men
nt shooting and stay In tho country. The
KtiHerlngs of the victim wero terrible. Tho
flesh was cut from his back in strips by tho
blows, mm when tho leader of the ruffians
had gratified his rage, others of the band
continued tho punishment. Hut one man
among tho number showed any mercy, and
his assertions that Long had been punished
enough wero received with derision, rinally
the hunter fainted under tho pain, and the
rullians, having satisfied their grudge, de
parted, leaving tho object of their splto still
bound to the tree. In this position ho was
found by his wife, who had becomo alarmed
fur his safely, and who, searching for him,
had been attracted to the spot by a faint
moaning, t-ho assisted him to reach the
cabin, -which ho did with difficulty ,and then
nursed him faithfully to recover. It was
weeks beloro he was well enough to move
about.
Scarcely had Long recovered from his
wounds when his cabin was found deserted,
and members of the llcddctt baud, thinking
lie had fled the country, boasted openly of
what they had done. At tho samo time they
became bolder than ever in the commission
of crime, always hunting or traveling to
gether In a company between twenty and
thirty, and defying attack from any quarter,
Ono day as they wero engaged on a hunt, a
member of tho band became separated lrom
tho rest in the excitement of the chase. Ho
was found, lying dead, shot in the left eye.
A few days later, oue of tho ruffians, riding
alone, was killed. Again tlio bullet was
found to have entered tlio left eye, but no
trace of the slayer could be discovered. A
week or two passed, and another nf the des
peradoncs was shot, the same terrible ac
curacy being exhibited in a shot in the left
eye, proving all tho shots to be irom tho
same source. Tho robbers becamo alarmed
and kept always together in their raids, but
there was no ccaping the death which seem
ed always to bo lurking near them. One
ifter another fell, until ten men had died,
each one pierced in the eye. Tho woods
were scoured by the terrified men in vain.
On ono occasion, when a member of the
band was killed, the shot had been heard,
and once a gaunt fellow was seen running
through tho woods, but pursuit failed to over
take him. Accustomed to face danger as tho
lesperadoes were, and possessed as they were
of a brutal courage, they trembled before
this mysterious danger. It could not be
faced, and could not be averted.
The result was that some of the band de
serted and lied tho region, 'i'iiero remained
only tho captain and four of tho moro reso.
lute of his followers. Theo live hunted and
made their raids together for some time
without harm. Among the five was the
man who had endeavored to savo Long at
tho time of tho whinnini'
torttue. una man ono morning ventured
out in the woods without his comrades. He
was walking slowly along, looking for game,
when the brown barrel of a rillo projecting
from a bitsli beside him checked his course.
X tall, lank figure rose from the bush, ami
the startled man recognied Sam Long, the
hunter. Long raised the rille, then lowered
it.
"You're tlio man who said a good word
for me, an'you may go, bad as you arc. I
won't take vour miserable life. Go!"
Tho man needed no second invitation to
go. llo liurricil to tnc camp ami ioki me
btorv. Tho captain and the other threo men
started out in pursuit of Long, and but two
men accompanied Dick Iteddctt when he
returned! The third man had fallen ; shot
in the eye, and no search of tho underbrush
revealed the hunter. The next day another
man was killed in camp,and again the hunt
er escaped. On the next day, tho two re
maining men lied the country, leaving tho
fierce Iteddctt alone. The leader of the
desperadoes dare not remain wherohowas
lie knew he was the mauwhomLong sought
abovo all others.
Concealing himself until night, he
mounted his horse and lied for the nearest
point on the Arkansas river where it would
be possible to take passage on a steamboat,
Two days later ho reached a small landing
in tho woods on tlio bank of tho river,whcre
tho bteamer stopped for passengers when
there were any to take. Ifo learned from
tho occupant of the only cabin in the neigh
borhood that the boat would bo down in tho
afternoon, and so, having put up tlio signal
to securo a landing of tho boat, established
himself on tho bunk and waited. He deemed
himself safe, enough from pursuit, and took
no precautions. Throwing himself on the
ground, bo slept until hue in tho day, when
ho was awakened by the sound of tho boat
in the distance. Slio would round a point
in a moment or two, and ho waited expect'
autlv. As suddenly as though risen Irom
tho ground, a lank figure stood before bint
and tho muz.lo of a rillo peered in his face
Tho terrified desperado ban no difficulty in
recognizing tho man as tlio oue no mm in
ured. With tho rillo still held steadily up
on the f.ico of tho startled llcddctt, Long
hissed out:
"I've gut you ! You whipped me whip
ped mo like a dog! I bivoro I'd kill )ou be
lore I called myself a man again, and I'm
filing to do It I I've cleaned out your band,
and now it's your turn I Oil, I've got you I
Thank God, l'vognt you!"
Tho ruffian in abject fear pleaded for his
life', groveling at tlio feel of the hunter. Ho
clung to his words as a drowning man clings
to straws. Tlio boat n as very near. Should
she round tho point in time ho would bo
K.ivedl Already the . smoke-tacks showed
through tho brush, when the hunter pressed
tlio trigger; tlio bharp report rang out, and
llcddctt fell dead, shot lo tho brain through
the left eye. Long slipped away in the
woods, and when tho boat stopped, in re
spon.sc to the signal, they found a dead man
but no one else. Harrison county was rid
forever of tho ii orst gang of ruffians in tie
southwest.

The latter part of tho lifo of Thomas F-
Marshall, the great Kentucky orator, was a
continual struggle against tlio power of
strong drink, lint the drink habit had so
long been indulged that it was too much for
him and finally overcame him. Ho said:
sought relief, I took tlio pledge, and
havo not wanted to drink since. I would
not drink again I would not have the ap
petite return, not if this earth were one en
tire chrysolite, set all over witli the richest
gems of Golconda not if tho city of New

it may acquire for half a century to come
not if all this wealth were placed at my feet ;
by my honor and my soul, I would not havo
this appetito return.
These words wero doubtless honest words,
yet, the last utterance this great man mado
was: "This is tho end. Tom. Marshall Ls

borrowed sheet, in a house built by charity,
and without a deceutsuit of clothes in which

Tho stupendous collection embraces full
300,000 volumes, being the largest singlo
library in the United States. Some years
ago the library of tho Smithsonian Institute!
was merged luto thoCongressslonalLlbrarlcs
and has now become a part nnd parcel of it.
These books, comprising works on almost
every notable subject, numbered from forty
five to fifty thousand volumes, and are In
eluded in the above estimate. In classifying
the works herein, it Is found thnt ancient
and modern history cmbraco tho largest col
lection, containing about an even hundred
thousand volumes. Uiography and travel
stand next m order, and show somo eighty
thousand. Tho law department, witli its 35,-
000 volumes, stands third upon tho list, and
of poetry there are at least twenty thousand.
The medical works prcent a very handsome
front of 8,000, and standard novels comprise
t carefully-selected list of about five thous
and. No novels of a lower order than those
commonly known as standard are allowed in
this valuablo collection, and wero the seeker
after literary knowledge- to ask for a work by
tlio versatile pens of cither Sylvanus Cobb,
Jr., or Dr. J. II. Itobinson, ho would

A Tragic llridal Tour.
A N1IWI.Y MARWIU) COUPLE Dl'.OWNED IN
Till! HUsfiUHHANNA.
A most distressing drowning accident
occured in the Susquehanna river, at Una-
dilla, on Thursday of last week, fourpersons
meeting their death, including a bride and
room, who wero on their weddiug tour.
The particulars of the catastrophe are as
follows: '
Maurice and William Goodrich, of Wor
cester, N. Y., were married to sisters in that
village about a week ago. They were on
their way homo from their bridal tour, and
stopped at Unadilla to visit tlio family of
Mr. Joseph Morehouse, a miller, whose wife
was a sister of tlio two brides. Thursday the
bridal party and Mr. and Mrs. Morehouse
went out boating on tho river. A move
ment of some ono of tho party caused the
boat to careen to one side, when tho ladies
sprang in fright to tlio other sido of tho boat.
This sudden movement caused tho.vcry ca
tastrophe it was intended to avert, and tho
boat was capsized, throwing tho entire party
into the water, which is very deep at that
spot. Mr. Morehouse, being an old sailor
and an excellent swimmer, at once seized his
wife and Mrs. Maurice Goodrich, and would
undoubtedly havo saved them, had they not
lost all presence of mind. As it waj the la'
dies wound their arms about Mr. Morehouse,
and ho was not only unable to givo them
any assistance, but was himself dragged to
tlio bottom. Maurieo Goodrich, being en
cumbered with a Heavy overcoat, sunk in a
short time, and shared tho fato of the other
three. William Goodrich had removed his
overcoat and coat, having been rowing tho
boat. Ho was a good swimmer, and at onco
seized bis wife as sho appeared abovo the
surface, and by pushing her ahead of him,
and repeatedly lifting her from tho water,
succeeded in reaching tho shoro with her.
Sho gnvspol hold of a clump of bushes and
supported herself, while her husband swam
rapidly back to render aid to tho others if
possible. It was too late, however, aa they
hud all disappeared beneath tho surface.
Tho news of tho shocking tragedy spread
rapidly through tlio village, and hundreds of
people turned out to search fur tho bodies of
the drowned persons. Tlioo of Mr. Good
rich and Air. and Airs. .Morehouse were
found the same day near where they sank
Tho body of Mrs. Goodriclt was not reeov
ered at last accounts. It is feared that tho
rescued bride, Mrs. William Goodrich, will
becomo iusauo over the death of her sister
Tho two young ladles were twin, as wero
tho Goodrich brothers, Mr. and Mrs. More
house lcavo several children. Tho tragic af
fair has cast n great gloom uvcr tho commu
nity where it occurred,
