Down  in  Poverty  Row 


Parody— Written  by  Frank  J.  Murray. 


Ontflide  of  a  dnsty  tenement, 

With  every  flat  to  let. 
In  one  there  lives  nn  Irish  girl 

Who  can't  speak  German  yet; 
She  blows  up  tires  for  bicycles. 

And  she's  all  riciit  on  tlie  l)low. 
With  a  wheel  in  lier  heac!,  an<l  often  it's  said. 

She's  a  good  thing  iu  Poverty  Row. 

CUORtTf. 

Down  in  Poverty  Row,  don't  ask  me  where. 
You  can  live  without  a  cent  if  you  only  breathe  the  air; 
Eacli  girl  has  her  l>oy,  and  so  so,  don't  you  Uiiow: 
There's  none  of  them  riglit,  you  can  take  wliat  you  like, 
Down  ill  Poverty  Row. 


In  winter  time  the  snow  will  fall 

At  night  as  well  as  day. 
And  tlien  ttiey  all  eal  enow-balls, 

It's  cheai)er  tlian  eating  bay:  ^         ". 

They  nil  dance  'round  \\\>axi  the  ice, 

And  any  old  thing  will  go, 
Tlien  they  sing  far  and  near,  'My  Dad's  tbe  Engineer,' 

All  'roniid  in  Poverty  Row. 

Chorus. 

Down  in  Poverty  Row,  don't  ask  me  where. 
You  can  live  witliout  a  cent  if  you  only  breathe  the  air; 
Each  girl  has  her  l)oy,  and  so  so,  don't  you  know; 
There's  non<-  of  tliem  riuht,  you  can  take  what  you  like, 
Down  ill  Poverty  Row.

Just  Tell  Them  that  Yeu  Saw  Me 


Parody— Written  by  Fnink  J.  Murray. 


While  standing  on  ray  feet  one  night,  a  change  from  on  ray  head- 

'Twas  after  I  had  chewed  a  chicken  pie— 
I  saw  a  cop  wlio  saw  me,  be  was  looking  iiungry,  too. 

And  wieilied  that  he  was  half  as  full  as  I. 
"Is  that  you,  Patf "  said  I  to  liiin;  says  he,  "Begob,  it  is; 

I've  got  to  pull  some  one  or  lose  me  job: 
I  guess  I'll  run  yon  in,  me  boy,  before  I  will  forget." 

Bays  I,  "Alt  right,  but  when  you  see  tbe  mob— 

■■  ■"■■^,;-, •■■>:■.-■,'';•  •      Chorus. 

••Jnst  say  that  I  was  with  you,  or  that  I  saw  yon  last; 

Just  telephone  I'm  working,  'nit,'  you  know: 
Just  spring  it,  I've  been  hypnotized  and  got  it  in  the  hip, 

Just  tell  them  any  old  thing,  it  wiM  go." 


While  riding  down  the  bay  one  niglit  within  a  cable  car. 

After  tlie  conductor  pinched  my  fare, 
I  saw  a  eirl  who  worked  for  nte  when  I  ran  a  "Cbing"  laundry. 

And  writing  checks  in  Cliiiiee  language  there. 
*'  I'm  gla<l  to  see  you.  Jack,  acain,"  that's  wliat  she  said  to  me; 

I  said,  "  I'm  sorry  that  we  met  at  all: 
I  owe  your  mother  twenty,  Kate,  and  sister  'l)oat  the  same. 

But  I'll  l)C  'round  to  see  them  when  I  call. 

Chobdb.  •■■;  , 

"  So  tell  tliem  that  yon  saw  me  and  T  was  fast  asleep, 

Just  tell  them  I  was  trying  to  touch  you: 
Then  whisper  to  your  sister  if  she'ii  let  me  have  a  ten, 

I  could  love  her  better  tlian  I  used  to  do."

While  strolling  along  with  the  city's  vast  throng. 

On  a  night  tliat  was  bitter  cold, 
I  noticed  a  crowd,  who  were  laughing  alond 

At  sometiiing  they  chanced  to  beliold: 
I  stopped  for  to  see  wliat  tlie  object  could  be, 

And  there,  on  a  doorstep,  lay 
A  woman  in  tears,  from  tlie  crowd's  angry  jeers, 

And  then  I  beard  sonielrady  say: 

Chorus. 
"She  may  have  seen  better  days, 

When  she  was  in  her  prime; 
She  may  liave  seen  better  days         _;  '      .' 
'"  t'         Once  upon  a  time;  ■'.'

She  may  yet  mend  her  ways;

Who  luu)  eeen  better  days. 


":^.^" : 


"  If  we  could  hut  tell  why  the  poor  creatnre  fell. 
Perhaps  we'd  not  be  so  severe; 

ir  the  truth  were  but  known  of  this  outcast  alone, 
Mayhap  we  would  ail  shed  a  tear. 

She  was  once  some  one's  joy,  cast  aside  like  a  toy- 
Abandoned,  forsaken,  unknown." 

Every  man  standing  by  had  a  tear  in  bis  eye. 
For  some  bad  a  daughter  at  home.—  Vhorug. 

The  crowd  went  away,  but  I  Joneer  did  stay. 

For  from  her  I  was  loath  to  depart; 
I  knew  by  her  moan,  as  she  sat  there  alone. 

That  something  was  breaking  her  lieart. 
She  told  me  her  life— she  was  once  a  good  wife, 

Respected  and  honored  by  all; 
Ber  husband  had  fled  ere  iliey  were  long  wed. 

And  tears  down  her  cheeks  sadly  tuXL—CliorUi,

Though  iiicinory  broiiu'tit  nji;  s-onie  thontflits  sad  and  dreary. 

Yet  ollivrn  ciiine.  too.  Hint  "ere  cheerful  and  jjay, 
When,  all  of  II  eiMlil.n.  1  found  my  eye  r.slinf; 

On  soniciliinu  rlmr  brouolii  many  pcriies  to  my  mind— 
'  r\va«  an  old  jiiiek  of  cardtJ,  and  «>onif  tales  interesting 

I  tlioML'hi  iliat  I  nii},'l^i  in  tiicir  liitiiory  llnd. 
Tlie  flrst  scene  iliat  I  eaw  that  iiiL'lit  I  thoiiulit  \va9  quite  a  iileaBant  Bight, 

A  irrand  old  room  al)liize  with  liirlit— I  uhiiKptreil,  "Kind  ngards," 
Whilst  'round  ilic  board  eat  youii"  and  old,  tliey  played  for  love  and  not  for  gold. 

Whilst  joy  and  sorrow  all  iiniold  was  tii  that  pack  of  cards. 

The  next  eceno  I  saw  filliMl  my  lieart  with  creat  pity- 
It  waa  u  youni;  man,  and  Ids  parenls  1  knew; 

'TwaB  Uieir  only  eon,  wlioni  they'd  pent  to  the  city 
To  sillily  and  i;row  u|i  a  geiitU'inun  I  run. 

His  wi-ekiy  allowance  they  thought  would  suffice  him 
To  live  on  ilie  hest  and  for  (>tndy  In  pay;  ' 

They  km-w  nor  lliat  evil  coni|>anlo;iB  enticed  liim 
Away  from  his  oiiidU'S  at  poker  to  play. 

I  saw  liini  as  he  Itft  liie  seat,  he  never  tlio)i{;ht  his  pais  would  cheat: 
Each  time  he  pia>ed  he  met  defeat,  and  biIH  lie  called  them  pards; 

But  there  will  come  a  reck'ninc  day,  and  he  will  lliroimli  tliiB  foolish  play 
BriiiK  sorrow  in  the  old  folks'  way,  all  through  that  pack  of  cards. 

The  last  scene  of  all  I  beheld  with  much  sorrow. 

For  there  wne  the  scene  of  the  gambler's  black  fate;    ■ 
No  tlioimht  had  they  got  of  the  waking  to-morrow. 

Though  then  they'd  repent  but  to  find  it  too  late. 
The  briuht  Kold  was  etaclved  by  Hie  side  of  each  player, 

The  miser's  black  creed  was  in  every  man's  heart. 
As  quickly  the  bets  p;issed  twixt  hacker  and  layer. 

And  ruin  was  king  lu  the  devil's  slave  mart. 
"  I'll  Slake  a  hundred  on  this  came."     "  I'll  go  yon,  sir."    "  I'll  do  the  same." 

Wlio  care^  for  misery  and  shame,  as  each  his"  treasure  guards. 
"Yon  lie!  1  saw  you  iiirn  that  an- "—a  smaMliini;  blow  ritihr  in  the  face — 

A  pistol  shot,  and  death's  disgrace  was  in  that  pnck  of  cards.

Times  were  bard  in  Irish  town,  ev'rything  was  going  down. 

And  Pat  Malone  was  pushed  for  ready  cash; 
De  for  life  insurance  spent  all  his  money  to  a  cent. 

So  all  of  Ins  alYairs  had  gone  to  smash. 
But  his  w  ife  spoke  up  and  said:  "Now.  dear  Pat,  if  yon  were  dead. 

That  twenty  thousand  dollars  wc  cmild  take." 
And  eo  Pat  lay  d'>wn  and  tried  to  make  out  that  he  had  died. 

Until  he  smelt  the  whiskey  at  the  wake; 
Then  Pat  Malone  fort'ot  that  he  was  dead. 

He  raised  himself  ami  shouted  from  the  bed: 
"If  this  wake  goes  on  a  minute,  the  corpse  lie  must  be  in  it; 

You'll  have  to  get.  m»?  drunk  to  keep  me  dead." 
Then  Pat  Mahme  forgot  that  lie  was  dead; 

He  rairieil  himself  and  shouted  from  ttie  bed: 
"  If  th'B  wake  goes  on  a  minute,  tiic  corpse  be  must  be  in  it; 
You'll  have  to  get  nu'  drunk  to  keep  me  dead." 

Then  they  gave  the  corpse  a  sup,  afterwards  they  filled  him  up. 

And  laid  him  out  again  upon  tne  bed: 
Then  before  the  morning  gray  ev'rybody  felt  so  gay, 

They  all  forgot  he  only  played  off  dead. 
So  they  took  him  from  the  bunk,  still  alive,  but  awful  drnnk. 

And  put  liiin  in  tlie  conin.  with  a  pray'r; 
But  the  driver  of  fiie  cart  said:  "  Bedad,  I'll  never  start 

Until  I  see  that  some  one  pays  the  fare." 
Then  Pat  Malone  forgot  that  he  was  dead; 

He  sat  up  ill  the  cotlln,  while  he  said: 
"If  you  dare  to  doubt  my  credit,  you'll  Ik;  sorry  that  yon  said  it; 

Drive  on,  or  else  the  corpse  will  break  your  head." 
Then  Pat  Malone  forirot  that  be  was  dead; 

Ue  sat  up  In  the  coflin,  w  hile  he  said: 
"If  you  dare  to  doubt  my  credit,  you'll  be  sorry  that  you  said  it; 

Drive  on,  or  else  the  corpse  will  break  your  head." 

So  the  fiin'ral  started  out  on  the  cemetery  route. 

And  the  neii;libors  tried  ibc  widow  to  console. 
Till  they  stoppe.l  be«ide  the  base  of  Malone'8  last  resting  place. 

And  ueiitly  loweicd  Patrick  in  the  hole. 
Then  M.iloiie  beLan  to  see,  just  as  plain  as  one,  two,  three. 

That  he'd  forgot  to  reckon  on  the  end; 
So.  as  cloiis  beuaii  lo  drop,  be  broke  off  the  coffln  top, 

And  to  the  caith  he  quickly  did  ascend. 
Then  Pat  Malone  forjjot  that  be  was  dead, 
'  And  from  the  cemetery  quickly  fleil; 

He  came  nearly  going  under;  it's  a  lucky  thing,  by  thunder. 

That  Pat  Malone  I'oroot  that  he  was  dead. 
Then  Pat  Malone  forgot  that  he  was  dead, 

And  from  the  Cemetery  quickly  fled; 
He  came  nearly  going  under;  it's  a  lucky  thing,  by  thunder, 

Tbat  Pat  Haloue  forgot  that  he  was  dead.

Toil  claimed  me  as  your  liuppy  bride. 

You  pressed  ine  lo  your  loving  side;

And  vowed  you  loved  but  me  alone.

And  now  I  wander  sad  and  lone,  the  past  a  drear  and  vain  regret, 
And  the'  your  many  vows  were  broken,  1  cannot  help,  I  love  you  yet. 

"I  loved  you  better  than  yon  knew,  machrce" — 

Those  were  the  words  you  spoke  to  me. 
And  tho'  I  thought  yon  loved  me  as  you  said, 

i  knew  that  tins  could  never  be. 
For  woman's  lieart  is  not  a  toy. 
One  deed  her  love  will  oft  destroy; 
I  saw  you  kiss  another's  lips.

I  now  take  my  pen  in  hand,  sweet  Kitty  Shea, 
To  write  you  a  letter  from  over  the  sea; 
I'm  well  and  1  hope  this  will  find  you  the  same —   • 
If  my  writing  is  bad,  tlien  my.i)en  is  to  blame. 
I'm  lonely,  since  I  left  the  dear  old  green  isle. 
For  somehody's  bright  face  and  eomeliody'fl  smlto; 
And  tliat  is  the  reason  I  write  to  you  now. 
To  ask  you  a  queelion,  if  you  will  allow.

What  will  yon  say,  sweet  Kitty  Shea, 

If  I  should  ask  you  to  marry  some  day? 

Will  you  say  "  Yes,  dear,"  or  will  you  say  "  Nay  "— 
Oh,  what  will  you  say,  sweet  Kitty  Sheaf 

If  what  I  am  writing  should  not  reach  you,  dear, 

I  liope  that  yon  always  will  think  of  me  here. 

And  tell  your  old  father  and  mother  for  me. 

That  I'll  take  care  of  them  if  my  «ife  you'll  be; 

Now  my  Ink  is  red  and  so  is  the  red  rose, 

And  my  love  is  there  where  the  dear  elmmrock  grows; 

Now  sugar  is  sweet  and  the  violets  are  bUie, 

And  blue  loo  I'll  be  till  I  hear,  dear,  from  you.— Choru*.

Words  and  Music  by  Joe  J.  Casey. 


I'm  a  celebrated  workingman,  me  duty  I  never  Shirk; 

I  can  do  more  work  than  any  inim  from  Pittsburgh  to  New  York; 

It's  a  perfect  holy  terror,  boys,  how  I'll  get  through  me  work. 

Providing  I  can  do  it  in  a  barroom. 
I'll  hoist  derricks  with  me  ehouliler,  push  freight  cars  with  me  breath. 
That  will  make  the  boss  feel  tickled,  till  he's  on  the  edge  of  death. 
But,  between  us  nil,  now  whisper  that  I  only  have  to  sweat. 

When  I'm  doiug  manual  labor  iu  the  barroom. 

There  are  coppers  without  nnmlwrs,  with  their  well-developed  chests. 

Who  make  the  most  astouiuliiig  of  ihe  whole  police  arrests: 

They'll  pound  the  air  with  vengeance,  then  dilate  their  manly  chests; 

If  you  II  only  chase  the  liquor  in  a  barroom. 
They  will  catch  thieves  wltliout  immhers,  they'll  be  up  to  snuff,  yon  see; 
They've  cau<!ht  a  hundred  murderers,  including  you  and  me. 
But  you'll  find  oat  when  you  know  tliem  that  they  must  have  twenty-three 

Of  the  very  largest  schooners  in  the  barroom. 

There  are  actors  who  have  acted  in  a  hundred  different  rolet. 
And  some  whose  fame  esteiul  beyond  those  two  cotifoiinded  poles. 
But  you'll  find  their  acting  qualiiies  lies  deep  wiihin  their  souls. 

And  they  draw  their  inspirations  from  a  barroom. 
Their  poses  are  heroic,  and  their  methods  are  sublime: 
They  give  old  Garrick  cards  and  spades,  their  soul  is  full  of  rhyme, 
But  when  you  come  to  solve  them  you  will  find  that  at  the  trime 

They  only  do  their  John  McCul lough's  in  a  barroom. 

There's  the  politician  robust,  with  his  pre-election  ways,  " 

Who  works  his  fine  iiiflneiice  on  the  blooming  Fourth  Ward  jayi^    ': 
And  for  fourteen  kegs  of  lager  then  his  nolis  he  boldly  pays. 

And  he  operates  his  canvass  in  the  barroom; 
But  when  tlie  election's  o'er  and  the  free  l)eer  is  all  gone,  -'-     '; 

He'll  wonder  how  the  deuce  it  was  that  his  opponent  won; 
He'll  find  out  that  I  voted  for  the  other  son  of  tt  gun, 

And  I  Often  jollied  heelers  iu  the  barroom.  -  .■

Id  a  cozy  little  cottage  sat  a  couple  old  and  gray, 

A  Are  lu  the  hearth  was  burning  bright, 
Tiiere  a  letter  they  were  reudlug  frum  their  son  who  went  astray; 

He  left  them  on  one  cold  and  winl'ry  night: 
His  companions,  whom  were  evil,  hud  him  forge  bis  father's  name; 

The  parent,  in  his  an^er,  wished  him  dead: 
But  the  sou  had  since  repented,  and  this  letter  home  had  come. 

And  to  bis  wife  these  words  the  old  man  read :

Let  roe  tabe  my  place  at  iioine  again.

;'       Back  to  mother's  dear  caress,  and  your  old  age  I  will  bless, 
i    Then  let  me  talie  my  place  at  borne  again. 

Now  the  old  man  would  not  listen  to  the  pleadings  of  his  lioy, 

Tbe  dear  old  mother's  health  soon  gave  away. 
For  her  heart  was  Badly  pining  for  her  son,  her  only  Joy, 

Who  left  them  in  both  sorrow  and  dismay; 
One  night  as  they  were  sitiing  by  their  cozy  fireside. 

The  sou  was  brouuht  in  pule  and  ill  from  need. 
Then  the  father  he  foreuve  him,  and  with  joy  the  mother  cried. 

And  now  my  lad  no  longer  has  to  plead:—  C'fwnis.

In  a  Pullman  palace  smolcer  sat  a  number  of  bright  men. 
You  could  tell  that  they  were  druminero,  nothing  8«emed  to  trouble  them,   :  " , 
When  up  spoke  a  handsome  fellow,  "  Come,  lei's  have  a  story,  boys. 
Something  that  will  help  to  pass  the  time  away."  . .  • 

"I  will  tell  you  how  we'll  nianat;e,  "  siiiil  a  bright  knight  of  the  grip, 

"  Let  us  have  three  wishes,  something  good  ami  true; 
We  will  give  friend  Bob  the  first  chance,  he's  the  oldest  gathered  here  "— 

Thee  they  listened  to  a  wish  that's  always  new: 

CnoBUB. 
"JuBt  to  be  a  child  agiiiu  at  mother's  knee, 
Jnst  to  hear  her  sing  the  same  old  melody. 
Just  to  hear  her  speuk  in  loving  sympathy. 
Just  to  kit's  her  lips  attain. 
Just  to  liave  hiT  fondle  me  with  tender  care. 
Just  to  feel  ber  dear,  soft  finders  ihrooirh  my  hair, 
■   '  There  is  no  wish  iu  this  world  that  can  compare. 

Just  to  be  a  child  at  motlier's  knee." 

There  they  sat,  those  jolly  drummers,  not  a  sound  that  moment  heard. 
While  their  tears  were  slowly  falling,  there  was  no  man  spoke  a  word, 
For  the  memories  of  their  childhood  days  had  louched  their  dear  kind  heartB, 
When,  as  children,  they  had  played  at  mother's  knee. 
Then  at  last  the  spell  was  broken  by  another  traveling  man, 

"Your  attention  for  a  moment  I  do  crave; 
I  will  tell  you  of  one  precious  thing,  bo  dear  to  one  and  all. 

'Tie  a  wiah  we  long  for  to  tbe  very  grave: 

Chorus. 
Jnst  enough  of  gold  to  keep  me  all  my  days. 
Just  enough  with  which  some  starving  soul  to  save, 
Just  enough  I  wish  to  help  me  on  my  way, 
Just  enough  to  happy  be. 
Just  enoueh  to  know  I'll  ne'er  be  poor  acain. 
Just  enough  to  drive  away  all  sorrow's  pain. 
You  may  wish  for  many  things,  but  all  in  vain. 
Give  to  me  what  precious  gold  can  buy." 

The  conductor,  passing  thronch  the  train,  stopped  In  the  Bmoking-car; 

He  had  grown  quite  interested  in  the  stories  told  so  fiir— 

"  Please  excuse  my  interruption,  but  I  listened  with  delight  .„    . 

To  your  wishes,  l)oth  of  them  so  good  and  true; 

Yet  there  is  a  wish  that's  dearer,  bitter  far  than  glittering  gold. 

Though  a  simple  one  perhaps  you  all  will  say, 

'Tis  a  longing  that  is  in  my  heart  each  moment  of  my  life, 

Tia  a  gleam  of  BUUBliiue  strewn  across  my  way : 

Chobub. 
Just  to  open  wide  my  little  cottage  door,  /  v     ^ 

-    ,  Jnst  to  see  my  baby  rolling  on  the  fl.—, 

•     ;'  Jnst  to  feel  that  I  have  something  to  adore,  •  •     ^ 

"  Jnst  to  be  at  home  again,  \.    -  .  *?■     - 

-■  Just  to  hear  a  sweet  voice  calling  papa  dear,  ;     -...  ' 

Just  to  know  my  darling  wife  Is  standing  near; 
You  may  have  your  gold  your  lonely  heart  to  cheer. 
But  I'll  tidie  my  baby,  wife  and  home."

I  will  fling  yon  a  Bong,  and  it  won't  be  very  long, 
'Bout  a  maiden  Bweet,  and  she  never  wonld  do  wrong; 
Ev'ry  one  said  she  was  pretty,  she  was  not  long  in  the  City, 
AH  alone,  oh,  what  a  pity— poor  little  maid. 

Chorub. 
She  never  saw  the  etieets  of  Cairo,  on  the  Midway  sbe  had  never  strayed, 
She  never  saw  the  katchy,  kutcby— poor  little  country  maid. 

She  went  out  one  night,  did  this  innocent  divine. 

With  a  nice  young  man,  who  invited  her  to  dine. 

Now  he's  Borry  that  he  met  her,  and  he  never  will  forget  her; 

In  the  future  he'll  know  better— poor  little  maid. 

Chorub. 
She  never  Baw  the  Btreets  of  Cairo,  on  the  Midway  sbe  had  never  strayed. 
She  never  eaw  the  kutcliy,  kutcliy— poor  little  country  maid. 

She  wag  eneaged  as  a  picture  for  to  pose. 

To  appear  each  ui^lit  in  abbreviated  clotlies. 

All  the  dudes  were  in  a  flurry,  for  to  catch  her  they  did  harry; 

One  who  cauglit  her  now  ia  sorry— poor  little  maid. 

Chorus. 
She  was  mach  fairer  far  than  Trilby— lots  of  more  men  sorry  will  be 
If  they  don't  try  to  keep  away  from  thiB  poor  little  country  maid.

A  gem  of  the  very  first  water. 

And  I'm  proud  that  Blie'B  Irish  by  birth; 
I  met  her  beneath  the  green  bower; 

I  klBsed  her  and  liked  it  so  well;  ..=   '

Kathleen,  so  fair  and  bright:  star  of  eve  and  darkest  night; 
'Mid  shady  lane  and  meadow  greeu,  I  long  to  roam  with  sweet  Kathleen.

She  has  a  bicycle,  I've  got  one,  too;  oh,  how  delightful  It  feels;

Matt  Casey  formed  a  social  club  that  beat  the  world  for  style. 

And  hired  for  a  meeting  place  a  ball; 
When  pay-day  came  around  each  week,  they'd  greased  the  floor  with  WAS, 

And  danced  with  noise  and  vigor  at  the  ball: 
Each  Saturday  you'd  see  thi'm  dressed  up  in  Sunday  clothes. 

Each  lad  would  have  his  swet-theart  by  liiB  tiide: 
When  Casey  led  the  first  grand  iiiarcli  the  rest  would  fall  in  line] 
Behind  the  man  who  was  their  joy  and  pride— for 

Chorus. 
Casey  would  waltz  with  a  strawberry  blonde, 

And  the  baud  played  on; 
He'd  glide  'ctoes  the  floor  with  the  girl  he  adored. 

And  the  band  p'ayed  on; 
But  his  brain  was  so  loaded  it  nearly  exploded, 

The  poor  girl  would  ehake  with  alarm; 
He'd  ne'er  leave  tlie  girl  with  the  strawberry  curls. 
And  the  baud  played  on. 

Snch  klBsing  in  the  corner  and  such  whigp'ring  in  the  hall. 

And  telling  tales  of  love  behind  the  Btaiis; 
As  Casey  was  the  favorite  and  b<-  that  ran  tlie  ball,         / 

Of  kiesing  and  love-making  did  his  Bhare;  ;,.... 

At  twelve  o'clock  exactly  they  all  would  fall  in  line,   ,  ■ 

Then  inarch  down  to  tlie  dining  ball  and  eat; 
But  Casey  would  not  joiu  them,  although  every  thing  was  line, 

But  he'd  stayed  np-stairs  and  exercise  his  feet— for— t'Aorw*. 

Now  when  the  dance  was  over  and  the  band  played  "  Iloiue,  sweet  horn*,** 

They  played  a  tune  at  Casey's  own  request; 
He'd  thank  them  very  kindly  for  the  favoTs  they  hud  shown;    .  -  ^  ■.■-■' 

Then  he'd  waltz  once  with  the  girl  that  he  loved  beet; 
'Most  all  the  friemls  are  married  that  Casey  used  to  know. 

And  Casey,  too,  has  taken  him  a  wife; 
The  blonde  he  used  to  waltz  and  glide  with  on  the  ball-room  flooia  '    !  :  'V 

Is  happy  Missis  Casey  now  for  life— for— CAorws.

Katie  wae  John'a  steady  company, 

They  were  liappy  as  lovers  conld  be, 
Bngaged  to  be  married,  the  time  was  qnite  near. 

Their  young  hearta  were  beating  with  glee, 
Bnt  of t,  between  Ixisses,  dear  Katie  wonld  say: 
*'  We  must  looli  forward  to  our  wedding  day; 
This  world  is  made  up  of  euuehine  and  rain;  " 
And  when  John  would  laugh,  she  would  eing  this  refndn: 

CnoRcs. 
" Dimes  and  nicltelB,  nickels  and  dimes: 
If  we  thonglit  more  of  them,  we'd  hear  of  less  crimes; 
Now,  John,  when  we're  married,  in  case  of  hard  timei^ 
You  save  the  nickels  and  I'll  save  the  dimes." 

At  last  they  were  married  and  settled,  ;' 

In  a  nice  little  place  of  their  own,  .  '   i: 

And  ft  bahy  would  call  out  for  Piipa,  BO  sweet. 
In  the  evening  when  Jolm  would  come  home. 

When  the  Union  declared  the  big  strike  at  the  mill, 

John  went  out,  with  his  dear  Katie's  will—  .  -. 

She  Bays:  "Do  not  fret:  we  laugh  at  hard  times. 

For  you've  aaved  the  uickela  and  I've  saved  the  dimes.'*— CAortOi

While  strolling  along  with  the  city's  vast  throng, 

On  a  night  that  was  bitter  cold,  .    ,  ■ 

I  noticed  a  crowd,  who  were  laughing  aload 

At  something  tliey  chanced  to  behold:  ;■ 

I  stopped  for  to  Bee  what  the  object  coald  be. 

And  there,  on  a  doorstep,  lay 
A  woman  In  tears,  from  the  crowd's  angry  jeers. 

And  then  I  heard  somebody  say: 

Chorus. 
She  may  have  seen  better  days,  when  she  was  In  her  prime; 
She  may  have  seen  better  days  once  npon  a  time: 
Though  by  the  wayside  she  fell,  she  may  yet  mend  her  ways; 
Some  poor,  old  mother  is  waiting  for  her,  who  has  seen  better  days. 

^       <     If  we  could  but  tell  why  the  poor  creature  fell,  ,  - 

■     -.        Perhaps  we'd  not  be  so  severe: 

If  the  truth  were  but  known  of  this  ontcaat  alone,     ' 

Mayhap  we  wonld  all  abed  a  tear. 
She  waB  ouce  some  one's  jov,  cast  aside  like  a  toy—   ■ 

Abandoned,  forsaken,  onknown. 
Svery  man  standing  by  had  a  tear  in  his  eye, 
For  some  had  a  daughter  at  home.—  Chonu,    ;  . ;. '  ' 

The  crowd  went  away,  but  I  longer  did  stay;      ■■  •-^;".   ■  r   ^r 

For  from  her  I  was  loath  to  depart;  .  '■  jj, .  ■;'  J-'- ' 

I  knew  by  her  moan,  as  she  sat  there  alone,         .'■•>'■ 

That  something  was  breaking  heart;  i- ".  ■:;  '; 

She  told  me  her  life,  she  was  ouce  a  good  wife^    ^ 

Bespected  and  honored  by  all; 
Bar  hosband  had  fled  ere  they  were  long  wed. 

And  tMM  down  lier  cheeks  sadly  falL— CAorw.

Maiden  Rnth  one  day  came  into  town,  jnat  to  see  her  nncle  dear; 

Maiden  Rnth  had  on  a  girlish  gown,  and  it  made  her  look  so  queer; 

Maiden  Ruth  had  never  seen  New  York,  not  until  that  day,  poor  thing,        /  >  * 

As  her  uncle  took  her  all  around,  she  began  to  sing:

Oh  t  Uncle  John,  Isn't  it  nice  on  Broadway;  '-;,.'<■

Life  in  the  country's  awful  slow,  and  I'll  never  go  Iwcic  S((afa.    . 

Uticle  John  escorted  maiden  Rath  all  around  the  town,  with  care- 
First  he  took  her  np  to  Central  Park,  then  they  went  to  Chatham  Square: 
Strange  sights  maiden  Rnth  had  witnessed  from  Oarlemdown  to  New  York  bay; 
£very  one  could  tell  what  pleased  her  most  by  the  way  she'd  say:— (7AorM«. 

Uncle  somehow  lost  her  in  the  crowd,  np  and  donn  the  street  he  ran. 
Soon  lie  found  her  happy  as  could  l>e,  chatting  with  a  (>oliceman; 
Uncle  John  then  said  to  maiden  Rnth,  "Come  along,"  but  Ruth  replied, 
"  I  must  kiss  that  handsome  man  in  blue,"  so  she  did  and  ct\eA:—Chx»a$.

While  walking  down  a  busy  thoroughfare. 

Yon  see  a  pretty  girl,  with  golden  hair. 
Tripping  along,  humming  a  song. 

As  happy  as  the  birds  in  the  ur, 
Wlien  suddenly  the  rain  it  patters  down. 

You'd  think  the  pretty  darling  she  would  drown; 
Ber  dress  holds  high  to  keep  it  dry. 

And  the  men  stare  as  she  toddles  through  the  town: 

Chorus. 
But  what  conld  the  poor  girl  do?  Boys,  what  conld  the  poor  girl  dof 
She'd  a  pretty  little  Bboe,  and  she  liked  to  show  it,  too, 
So  I  couldn't  blame  the  girl,  could  you  f 

A  pretty  girl  in  bathing  went  one  day. 

Dressed  in  a  bathing  suit  of  colors  gay. 
When,  like  a  mouse,  from  bathing-house, 

A  thief  her  garments  Blole  and  ran  away; 
She  learned  her  clothes  were  lost,  and  she  mast  roam 

The  city  in  a  coHtume  ronde  for  foam; 
She  gave  a  sigh,  hut  did  not  cry. 

And  then  pluckily  she  started  out  for  home. 

Chorus. 
But  what  could  the  poor  girl  duf  Boys,  what  conld  the  poor  girl  dof 
Through  the  streets  she  had  to  scooC  dressed  up  in  a  battdng  suit. 
So  I  couldn't  blame  the  girl,  could  youf 

Now  when  a  man  gets  married,  you'll  agfree, 

At  family  work  he's  helpless  as  can  be; 
His  wife  says,  Dan, 'most  every  man 

Assists  his  wife,  now  why  don't  yon  help  mef       .    '~     ' 
The  henpecked  man  consents,  but  vrith  a  s^owl—  1. 

At  night  he  walks  the  floor  to  baby's  bowl. 
While  mamma  dear,  without  a  fear. 

Says  I'll  retire,  then  hubby  starts  to  growl.  ./>    . 

Chorus. 
Bnt  what  could  the  poor  girl  do?  Boys,  what  could  the  poor  girl  dof 
While  the  baby  lonaly  roars,  mamma  goes  to  sleep  and  snores. 
And  I  couldn't  blame  the  girl,  could  youf 

A  good  ship  o'er  the  ocean  swiftly  sped.  -  • ' 

The  sun  was  shining  brightly  overhead. 
The  captain  and  a  maiden  grand 

StnncI  on  the  deck,  when  suridenly  he  said:      ■■■;.■■    ••r-". 
Now  from  your  pretty  lips  I'll  take  a  sip,  -•-■"  ;    ' 

Or  else  this  boat  has  seen  its  final  trip, 
Unless  I  kiss  yon,  pretty  HIhs,  ■'"..•"".. 

All  lives  aboard  are  lost,  I'll  sink  the  ship.

Now  what  could  the  poor  girl  dot  Boys,  what  could  the  poor  girl  dof 
Now  she's  very  mnch  adored,  she  saved  all  the  lives  ou  board.

They  say  I  am  a  giddy  maid, 
Not  half  enoueh  in  manners  staid; 
■;  ,  I  really  try  to  be  <iiBCreet; 

I've  just  come  back  from  school  in  France, 
The  matron  led  me  such  a  dance, 
Althonuli  my  education  was  complete; 
So  papa  came  for  me. 
To  take  me  home,  you  see. 
He  was  so  proud  of  me,  yon  know. 
He  said,  "To  Paris  we  will  go. 
And  there  we'll  stay  for  a  week, 
"     ■       So  that  your  French  you  may  speak; 

And  w lien  you  go  home  to  mamma,  : 

Ton'll  tell  uer  what  you've  seen. 

Chobds. 
I  went  to  Paris  with  papa,  to  see  what  kind  the  Frenchmen  are, 
Sach  funny  ways  they've  got— Americans  have  not; 
Ton  really  should  to  Paris  go;  you  learn  so  very  much,  yoo  know; 
I  saw  a  lot  in  Paris  that  they  never  taught  In  school. 

And  when  we  came  back  to  mamma, 
She  gave  a  ball,  with  great  eclat 
She  said,  "  My  dear,  I'll  bring  yon  out; 
Now  show  tliem  what  you've  learned  in  France, 
How  well  you  sing,  how  well  you  dance; 
And,  mind  you,  show  what  manners  yon've  been  tatight.** 
So  when  the  dance  began, 

I  to  my  partner  ran,  ,. 

I  kicked  ray  toes  np  in  the  air, 
I'd  seen  them  do  it  over  there; 
My  cigarette  I  drew, 
i,  French  ladies  do  that,  too, 

And  our  young  cnrate  blushed  so 
When  I  sat  upon  bis  knee.—  Chorui.

In  a  lonely  little  garret  dwelt  a  once  8weet  village  belle. 

The  only  place  that  she  dure  call  a  home: 
She  had  inarrivd  "gaiiit>t  tne  wishes  of  tne  dear  ones  who  loved  ber  eo  well. 

And  now  'midst  strangers  she  was  left  alone. 
A  youth  from  city  graml  had  won  her  h«-art  and  hand —  r'-"'       "' 

He'd  pictured  to  her  all  so  hright  and  Kiiy; 
It  was  then  the  father  told,  "  All  that  j-liiters,  my  child,  is  not  gold." 
It  soon  came  true,  and  she  had  cause  to  say: 

Cbobus.  •  ;         •    . 

"  If  they'd  only  write  and  ask  me  to  come  home, 

I'd  feel  as  though  forgivetieps  they  had  shown,  -  ' 

And  my  heart  would  cease  its  pain,  I'd  be  happy  once  again—         ■■' 
If  they'd  only  write  and  ask  me  to  come  home."  ,  . 

In  an  humble  little  cottage  sits  a  father  bowed  in  grief, 

A  mother,  too,  is  weeping  by  his  hide; 
They  hitve  just  received  a  letter,  and  it  told  them,  in  words  crael  and  brief. 

That  her  they  loved  witii  broken  heart  had  died. 
Oli.  had  they  only  known  that  she  was  left  alone. 

How  gladly  would  they've  called  h«T  back  again. 
'Tis  the  story  we  all  tell,  "She  had  loved  not  wisely,  but  too  well," 

And  not  theonly  one  we  hear  exclaim:— 67(oru«.

My  sweetheart  ie  a  dark-eyed  tiil.  die  lives  right  close  to  me, 

And  ev'ry  mornintr  in  the  year  her  sniilitig  face  I  see; 

The  neighbors  all  love  her,  too,  she  hue  such  a  winning  way. 

And  wben  1  come  home  from  my  worli,  I'm  often  beard  to  say:    .  - 

Chorus.        .*       T    ■-      .   :  " 

••I  love  my  girl,  and  she  loves  me;  • 

We're  just  as  happy  toeether  as  wc  can  be: 
We  have  a  cozy,  little  home;  we're  married  now,  yon  see; 
For  I  love  my  little  wife,  boys,  and  she  loves  me." 

Yes.  we've  been  married  qnite  a  while,  and  very  pleased  to  say 

That  we  are  quite  contented  now,  and  never  rued  the  day; 

We've  never  liad  a  quarrel  yet,  we  haven't  (jot  any  time. 

And  when  the  rainy  day  comes  'round  you'll  ^d  us  not  behind.— CAo.

One  Easter  Sunday  morning,  while  the  sun  was  shining  clear,  ■■: 

And  good  folks  to  the  old  cimrch  cunic,  the  parson's  prayers  to  bear;     ;-. 
They  little  knew,  while  sealed  there,  upon  that  blewsed  day,  '    •,    ; 

A  human  life  wus  ending  In  a  home  just  o'er  the  way. 

A  JOan  in  deejMJst  poverty,  without  a  single  friend,  -  v'      '-^ 

Would  answer  soon  ihe  c;i.l  of  death;  his  life  was  nearing  end,  ."   -:  ''  '. 

With  no  one  there  to  coin  fort  him,  no  lender  words  to  say — 
He  heard  the  morning  si ;  vice  in  the  church  acroes  the  way. 

Chorits. 
.  The  minister  wag  preaching  his  good  and  sacred  teaching, 
The  congregation  sat  in  ecetacy; 
'--  .-^    The  bells  had  ju^t  ceased  ringing,  the  choir  was  sweetly  singing 
"  Nearer,  my  God,  to  thee." 

The  preacher's  words  touched  ev'ry  heart  within  those  sacred  walla; 

He  told  how  honor  always  thrives  and  how  deception  falls. 

The  outcast  in  that  hnmhie  home,  whose  life  had  been  a  blank. 

Sighed  softly  at  those  truthfnl  words  as  nearer  death  he  sank; 

He  knew  not  that  tln'^  preacher  was  his  honored  brother  Ned, 

Whom  he'd  not  seen  for  years,  not  since  to  bide  his  crime  he  fled. 

If  he  could  live  life  o'er  again,  his  thoughts  would  never  stray 

From  each  word  taught  that  morning  in  the  cbnrch  acniM  tbe  way.— Cikffni*-

We  were  none  of  118  thinking  of  danger. 

As  tlie  train  aped  on  III  the  night,  '. 

'Till  the  flatnee  frura  a  burning  forest 

Made  the  paasun^^erB  wild  with  fright. 
Then  a  tiny  maid  near  a  window,  with  a  ■mile,  slid, 
-.    '  "  There's  nothing  to  fear: 

I'm  sare  that  do  harm  will  befall  yoiif

"  Daddy's  on  the  engine,  don't  be  afraid; 
Daddy  knows  what  be  is  doing,"  said  the  little  maid; 
•     •'  We  II  soon  be  out  of  danger,  don't  you  ever  fear; 
Every  one  is  safe,  because  my  Dad's  the  engineer." 

With  the  sparks  falling  closely  ahont  as, 

I'hro'  the  flames  we  sped  on  so  fast. 
And  the  brave  Httic  maid's  father 

Brought  ns  thro'  the  danger  all  ufe  at  lut;

There's  a  little  snide  street,  that  yon  cannot  call  sweet. 

Where  the  Board  of  Health  often  will  rally; 
It's  alwui  a  yard  wide,  and  the  law  is  defleU— 

The  police  call  it  Paradise  Alley. 
Tliere's  a  girl  living  there,  with  crosa  eyes  and  red  hair,   . 

And  her  front  name,  ibey  tell  me,  is  Sally; 
Every  day  on  the  street  she  sells  Fraukforlera  sweet. 

That's  the  sausage  of  Paradise  Alley. 

Chorus. 
Every  Sunday,  even  in  rain  or  snow. 
With  her  Frankfort  pudding,  !long  the  street  she'll  go; 
All  the  Iwys  then  say.  In  a  whisper  low. 
There  goes  the  sausage  of  Paradise  Alley. 

When  O'Brien's  little  boy  used  that  girl  to  annoy, 

They  all  thought  that  she  wonid  not  go  near  him. 
But  she  caught  lilm  one  day,  broke  his  Jaw  right  away, 

JoBt  to  show  them  that  slie  didn't  fear  him. 
When  the  young  man  got  well,  to  a  friend  he  did  tell 

Dow  a  red-headed  girl  they  called  Sally 
Bad  hit  tiim  with  a  bone  that  was  harder  than  stone— 

'Twaa  a  sansage  of  Paradise  Alley.— CA<7ru«. 

Bow  her  hair  it  got  red,  by  the  neighbors  'tis  said. 

That,  at  one  time,  'twas  black  and  unsightly. 
And  young  Tommy  Killeen  said  that  once  it  was  green. 

And  then  changed  to  that  color  so  brightly; 
So  we  guess,  by  the  liy,  tliHt  she  uses  hair  dye. 

In  a  manner,  like  Mrs.  McNally, 
And  I  now  do  proclaim  that  the  color's  the  same 

As  the  aaosage  of  Paradise  Alley.— CAoru*.

At  a  kind  oM  mother's  side  sat  her  eldest  boy,  her  pride. 

Who  wonId  soon  arrive  at  manhood's  stage  of  life. 
When  the  lad  b<^gHii  to  tell  of  a  girl  he  loved  so  well. 

And  intended  asking  lier  to  be  his  wife. 
On  that  loving  mother's  face  care  at  once  your  eye  conid  trace. 

Like  the  change  of  brightest  sunlight  into  gloam. 
"  Have  you  stopped  to  think,"  said  she,  '*  what  your  lot  In  life  sboald  be, 

Sre  you  ask  a  girl  to  leave  a  happy  home?  " 

Chords. 
When  yon  ask  a  girl  to  leave  a  happy  homestead, 

And  to  sail  with  you  o'er  matrimony's  foam. 
Ton  should  have  employment  then,  earn  your  way  and  llTlng, 

When  you  ask  a  girl  to  leave  a  happy  home. 

When  the  kind  old  mother  said,  "  Tell  me,  lad.  If  yon  were  wed. 

How  could  yon  support  a  wife  and  dress  lier  well?  " 
Bald  the  lad,  ^'  Why,  we  could  live  on  the  money  yoa  woold  glT6, 

And  in  one  of  father's  houses  we  could  dwell." 
"But  the  girl,"  the  mother  cried,  "has  a  dignity  and  pride;  :' 

To  depend  on  ne,  from  home  would  never  roam ; 
Tboogb  we'll  help  yon  all  we  can,  we  want  yon  to  act  a  man, 

Wn«a  yoa  aak  a  girl  to  laare  a  happy  home."— CAoriM. 


Don't  yon  remember  sweet  Alice,  Ben  Boltf 

Sweet  Alice,  with  hair  so  brown. 
Who  blushed  with  delight  if  you  gave  her  a  101110, 

And  trembled  with  fear  at  your  frown r 
In  the  old  church-yard.  In  the  valley,  Ben  Bolt, 

In  a  corner  ohscnre  and  lone. 
They  have  fitted  a  slab  of  granite  so  gray. 

And  Alice  lies  under  the  stone. 

Under  the  hickory  tree,  Ben  Bolt, 

That  stood  at  the  foot  of  the  hill. 
Together  we've  lain  in  the  noonday  shade, 

And  listened  to  Appletoii's  mill. 
The  mill-wheel  has  fallen  to  pieces,  Ben  Bolt, 

The  rafters  have  tumbled  in. 
And  a  quiet  that  crawls  'round  the  wall  as  yon  gaze, 

Takes  the  place  of  the  olden  din. 

Do  yon  mind  the  cabin  of  logs,  Ben  Bolt, 

That  stood  in  the  pathless  woodf 
And  the  button-ball  tree,  with  Its  motley  Iwnghi, 

That  nigh  by  the  door-step  etood? 
The  cahin  to  ruin  has  gone,  Ben  Bolt 

To  would  look  for  the  tree  in  vain: 
And  where  once  the  lords  of  the  forest  stood, 

Grows  grass  and  the  golden  grain. 

And  don't  yon  remember  the  school,  Ben  Bolt, 

And  the  master  so  crnel  and  grim  f 
And  the  shady  nook  in  the  running  brook. 

Where  the  children  went  to  swimf 
Grass  grows  on  the  master's  grave,  Ben  Bolt, 

The  spring  of  the  brook  is  dry. 
And  of  all  the  boys  who  were  scnoolmates  then. 

There  are  only  you  and  I. 

There's  a  change  In  the  things  I  love,  Ben  Bolt; 

They  have  changed  from  the  old  to  the  new; 
But  I  feel  in  the  core  of  my  spirit  the  truth. 

There  never  was  a  change  in  yon. 
Twelve  months  twenty  have  passed,  Ben  Bolt, 

Since  flrst  we  were  friends,  yet  I  hail 
Thy  presence  a  blessing,  thy  friendship  a  tmtb, 

Ben  Bolt  of  the  salt  sea  gale.
