Though one o f tin* most nervous singers
that ever went before an audience, B rignoli
in his way was one o f the m ost conscien

that his voice was in u condition to do ju s

bagelata, usually adm inistered the drug.
On one occasion it happened that Barba-
gelata gave him a larger quantity o f bryo
nia than he hud asked for; but, like the
faithful servant that he was, he inform ed
his master o f the mistake. B rignoli was
furious. He thought lie was a dead man.

“ A h , m y G od!“ cried Brignoli, forgetting

of a conspiracy as deliberate and heartless

resident o f W ashington o f uncertain ante

brought suit for divorce from his wife,

alienating ids w ife ’ s affections and adm its
that it w ould take a good many pieces of
the senator’s silver to heal his w ounds and
repair his honor.
Senator Stew art denounces tho whole
affair as a conspiracy to extort blackm ail.
Ho says: “ My first m eeting w ith this

IT WA8 BU T A DREAM.
Ob, it was but a dream I had
While the musician played!
And here the sky. and here the glad
Old ocean kissed the glade—
And here the laughing ripples ran.
And here the roses grew
That threw a kiss to every man
That voyaged with the crew.
Our silken sails in lazy folds
Drooped in the breathless breeze.
As o ’er a field of marigolds
Our eyes swam o ’er the seas;
While here the eddies lisped and purled
Around the island’s rim.
And up from out the underworld
We saw the mermen swim.
And it was dawn and middle day
And midnight—for the moon
On silver rounds across the bay
Had climbed the skies of June—
And here the glowing, glorious king
Of day ruled o’er his realm.
With stars of midnight glittering
About his diadem.
The sea gull reeled on languid wing
In circles round the mast.
We heard the songs the sirens sing
As we went sailing past.
And up and down the golden sands
A thousand fairy throngs
Flung at us from their flashing hands
The echoes of their songs.
Oh, it was but a dream I had
While the musician played!
For here the sky and here the glad
Old ocean kissed the glade—
And here the laughing ripples ran.
And here the roses grew
That threw a kiss to every man
That voyaged with the crew.
