Stars are rising. suns are setting,
Nothing staye the stern command ;
They who build this fact forgetting,
Struett<res raise on shifting sand,
.fist may diol the brightest dawning,
(balls eclipse the light of noou;
Evening, early, weeps for morning,
Change is ever making roora.
Happy they wire Fair life's ocean
When the winds are always fair,
Feel no billow of ccmiuotinn
From tbe gales that others share,
But the clouts are ever lying
Low around the horizon.
Fragreeuts, broken, often flying.
Bear the lamp that lights the storm,
.cast toy bread upon the waters'
Holds a meaning most sublime
Sita today anti sleeps to -morrow
Safely in the Maud of Time,
Seed that's scattered in the morning
Springs when weary flowers rest;
Summer days to autumn dawning
Show the promised harvest .heat.

After three hours' deliberation the
jury in the railway colhsion case re-
turned the following verdict : 'We

The jury do also flud that there are

bridge and the Cove bridge, being

from the said railroad property,
*thiol' obstruct the view and endanger

\Ve, the jury, also find that the G.
T. II. Co., should use more diligenoe
and take greater precaution to see
Quit their rules and regulations are
more rtriotly carried out by their ew-
ployees.
The verdict 1• worded in such a
way as not to admit of legal proceed -
jugs being taken against any indivi-
dual dispatcher, but it is in the power
of the Crown Attorney, if ho thinks
fit, to prosecute the dispatchers on the
strength of the evidence.
Al about 9 o'clock Thureday mora•
ing a small party of men, one of
whom wore a long linen duster reach•
ing down to his feet, passed through
the Brooklyn entrance to the bridge
promenade. They walked out a lit-
tle beyond the first pier to a part not
guarded for the moment by police.
Then the man with the duster hastily
threw off the garment, and showed
himself to be attired in a close fitting
suit. He ran quickly to the side of
the bridge, and clambering through
the wire netting, jumped off. He
stood perfectly erect for about 100
feet of his fall, then he suddenly
doubled up, and a second later struck
the water like a bullet from a rifle.
His body disappeared, and did not
conte to the surface again. The men
who were with the jumper quickly
disappeared, and it was some time be-
fore the police were informed of the
tragedy. But few persons saw it.
Nothing has yet been discovered as
to the identity of the unfortunate
man. The police ere looking for
facts.
