THE PAST.

.Ah! distinctly I remember, It was In the bleak December, Tbo'the air was filled with music of the joyous Christmas mirth. While without 'twas dark and dreary, All within was light and cheery, As we gaily sat and chatted, Xaugi)6d and chatted 'round our rosy, gas-lit hearth,

THE I'KEBKSi'i.

How my heart with rage grows heavy, As I think of McAlevy, And the plentltude of gas he's promised o'er i- and o'er.

And now to still the beating. Of my heart, I stand repeating, "May he never lack a lire when he leaves this mundane shore. Never lack a Are that will make him squirm and roar, A hot Are for evermore."

As 1 shiver weak and weary, O'er my Are so cold and dreary, —(I'vebeen out stealing wood nearly all th night before),— I am tired and.nearly napping. When suddenly there oomesa tapping, Aloud Impatient rapping. Rapping at my chamber door. 'Xis the gas man for his money, rapping at my chamber door. He It 18, and nothing more.

Back Into my chamber turning, AII my soul within me burning. The old Adam in me yearning for the company's crimson gore. Tho'to burn I have no gas, yet For it* price they'd seize the casket Of a dead one—frozen by the lack Of what we'll burn sir, never more.

WHO AND WHAT THEY ARE.

Statistical ltcport of tlie Members of the General Assembly.

Indianapolis Journal: Deputy Secretary of State Wright, assisted by Clerk Oglesbee, of the Senate, and Clerk Brown of the House, has just completed a statistical roll of the members for the Secretary of State's report. The roll shows that seventy members of the House were born in Indiana, twelve in Ohio, four in New York, three in Pennsylvania, three in Kentucky, and one each in Germany, Scotland, Maryland, North Carolina, Massachusetts, Virginia, Michigan and Illinois. Of the one hundred members eighty-one were born in or came to Indiana before the war, five came to the State since 1S70 and only one since 1880 and none since 1883, all of which goes to show that it is a pretty thorough "Indiana" Legislature. Ninetythree are married and seven single twenty have been in the House before. There are in the House twenty-five lawyers, thirty-seven fanners and one farmer-lawyer, five physicians, four publishers, one editor and one reporter, four insurance and real estate men, live merchants, three contractors, two bankers, two business men. and of the following one each: Trader, manufacturer, minister, marble and granite dealer, blacksmith, machinist, stone mason, fruit grower, druggist, life insurance agent.

Thirty-live of the Senators first saw the light of day in Indiana. Ohio produced eight and Ireland^ Germany, Canada, Tennessee, Maryland, Kentucky, North Carolina, and New York, one each. Only seven of the Senators came to the State since 1800, and only three since 1870, so that the Senate is likewise a Hoosier body.

Twenty-seven of the Senators are lawyers, twelve farmers, three physicians, three editors, two merchants, one surveyor, one banker and farmer, one real estate dealer and one grain dealer. Forty-six of the Senators are married, five single, Senator Thayer, now dead, and his successor, Senator Manwaring, being included in these classifications. With the exception of the hold-overs the Senators have had little previous experience, though Senator Boyd has served twelve years and Johnston and McLean eight each.

New School House Wanted.

To tho Editor The Journal. DAHUXRTOX, Ind. March 4.—Years ago we had a log school house amply equal to the demand, then came the one frame room, then the double room house with an abundance of loom, then later came the magnificent four room building situate in one of the most beautiful squares in our town, built some thirty years ago, and until the last three years was as the others, amply sufficient. But as all things else its day is over, and the old building is now inadequate to the demand, as our town has increased so the children of school age, until the only question now to be decided is the kind of a building required to meet the demands. What meets our requirements to-day may be entirely insufficient in a few years, and we trust our trustees in building may not bo deceived in the fact that if worth doing is worth doing well. As is always the case this move has its enemies who seem to be under the leadership of \V. N. Bowers. Why any sane man acquainted with all the circumstances could vote, no, especially those having children under school age, as twenty-eight of them did at a meeting last Friday night in Hulet's hall, presided over by the said Bowers, when on a direct vote of school house or no school house, we cannot understand. Each one of us is responsible for this state of facts as all have worked for the growth of the town.

Even Mr. Boweis has his addition to town rapidly filling up with young families. Each year increasing the enumeration our population has more than doubled, our scholars in the same proportion. Our taxables have risen from 820,000 to nearly 8250,000 in the last few years. We have had no boom. We have simply, like Topsy, just growed. It may stop. We can see no cause for it to stop and we believe for years yet we will continue to grow. The school building is no delusion, nor a snare, it is a fair business proposition and must be met in a business way. The Legislature has just said we must educate our children. We cannot do that in the commons. No, we have the town, we have the scholars and we believe we have the trustees that can see the situation and will work for the best interests of the town and we can assure them the cordial support of nine-tenths of the tax-payers, the blessings of the children and in the after years those now opposing will rise up and call you blessed for building a new school building in the year
