Sunshine is through the branches sifting, sifting,' ' As I swing; Piny odors are round me drifting, drifting, As I swing To and fro, to and fro, beneath the rustling . leaves ; I'm half asleep and half awake, and in a restful ease, . As I swing. Ah, the day-dreams I am dreaming, dream ing, As I swing; With what happy thoughts my brain is , teeming, teeming, As I swing. All this long life is a summer's day, And sunshine and happiness have -come to 6tay, As I swing. Away from the cares of earth I'm swinging, swinging, A.s I swing; Ease and rest forgetfulness are bringing, bringing, As I swing. But troubled dreams were the grief I've known, That away on the morning have quickly flown, As I swing. My heavy eyelids would be sleeping, sleep ing, As I swing; And my tired - eyes forget their weeping, weeping, As I swing. Hope hath for me no weak or crippled wing, And life seems a sweeter and dearer thing, As I swing. fLiddie Curtis, in New York Ledger. house and Lome for track repairers. I unconsciously I pulled.

The country east of the Rio Grande for a long distance was then a savage wilderness. Not a village of any size, hardly a permanent dwelling of any kind, was to be found. The only representatives of the human race to be met were the employes of the single line of railway that passed through the territory, and the bands of wicked-looking Indians that roved everywhere, ready to commit any kind one could be hopelessly lost in a few moments. Consulting my compass often, and keeping in mind the speed with which I walked, I moved away from the station at a right angle with the railway. The ground was nearly covered by mesquite-bushes growing in dense clumps, the spaces between being carpeted with fine, soft buffalo-grass that gave out no sound under the tread.

Indians had been seen in the vicinity, aud they were beyond all doubt the assassins. Workmen em ployed by the railway company had nto vew reported the crimes and brought the bodies to the station for identification, but declared themselves unable to give any information that could lead to the detection of the criminals. I decided that whatever else I might do, I would not stop at Luellen. I had already fixed upon the Nauces River as the most promising place at which to commence my hunting oper ations. There, ' I had been told, game often came out in full sight of the railway train, and but a short walk would be necessary to carry me' to a number of little green openings in yards away. One side of it, which presented a confused effect by reason of projecting roots, seemed to be gradually swelling 1 out and becoming solid.
