Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes was hand with an appro-
PIRATE poem The following some Of the verses:
Brothers, whom we may not reach
Through the veil Of alien speech
Welcome wclcome eyes can tell
What the lips in vain would SPELL
Words that hearts understand,
Brothers from the Flo~ery Lana
Land of wonders fair Cathay,
Who long has Stunned the staring day.
Hid in mists Of poets dreams
BY thy blue aud yellow streams
.. Let US thy shadOwed form behold
Teach as thou didst OF old.
Open wide, We gates OF gold,
To the Dragons banner fold!
Builders OF the mighty wall,
Bid your mountain barriers fall!
so may the nrdle Of the sun
Bind the East and West in one
Till Nevadas breeZes fan
The snowy peaks OF Ia Sieue Shan
TIL Erie blends its waters blue
With the waves OF Tung-Ting Hp-
TIL deep Missouri lends it's flow
To swell the rushing HOang HO!
