Colorado, the COlOred Land.

This land derived it's name from its
many-colored turreted hills and rocks,
which, white, pink, and blue, stand out
in painted contrast with the unchanging
greenery of gnarled and wide-fringed
pines. From the divide the whole range
OF the Rocky mountains is seen at a
glance; and they are ever varying in color.
In tie early morn Pixies peak is clad in
violet, and the rising sun tips him with
gold; in the evening he is all rose. The
Snowy range is sometimes silver-pure,
bright silver; and at other times the snow
is perfect pink, fading, as the sun SETS,
into gray and violet and white. In a
bright monday the foot hills display all
their hues of green and amber. The
peak, as I write in January, is violet
colored, streaked with silver. I fear no
brush can ever represent it as it is in
natures dress. It must be seen. The
vivid colors of the rainbow in this land
are truly enchanting when they appear,
though we seldom have true rainbow.
so rare is the rain-shower. But we have
other rainbows--a rainbow in the snow
mist, kind of snowy sleet which falls on
the hills, and at times rises from the
SnowY range under the heat of tue sun
like bright gauze vail. On frosty
evening, too, at shutdown, tho landscape

Henry Bergh.

An illustrated paper, by Mr.. G. C.
Buel, in Seribner for April, contains an
account OF Mr.. Bergh's unique and inter-
esting work and this sketch of the Der
sonnet of the man:
Thirteen years of devoted labor have
wrought no very great change in the an.
pearance and manners of Henry Bereh.
If the lines of his careworn face have
multiplied, they have also responded to
the kindly influence of public sympathy
and the release of his genial disposition
from austere restraint. A visitor who
had no claims on Mr.. Bergh's indulgence
once remarked, II was alarmed by the
dignity of his presence and disarmed by
his poilteness." Since Horace Greelevs
death, no figure more familiar to the
public has walked the streets of the me-
troplls. Nature gave him an absolute
patent on every feature and manner of
his personality. His commanding stat
ure Of six feet ir magnifed by his erect
and digni6ed bearing. A silk hat with
straight rim covers with primness the
severity Of his presence. A dark brown or
dark blue frOck Overcoat encases his broad
shoulders and spare, yet sinewy, figure.
"A decisive hand grasps cane, stronp
enough to lean upon, and competent to be
adetense without looking like standing
menace. When this cane, or even his
finger, is raised in warning, the cruel
driver is quick to understand and heed
the gesture. On the crowded street. he
walks with a slow, slightly swinging
pace peculiar to himself. Apparently
preoccup;ed, he is yet observant of everv-
thing about him and mechanically notes
the condition from head to hoof of eyerv
passing horse. Everybody looks into the
long, solemn, finely chiseleu and bronzed
face wearing an expression of irmness
and benevolence. Brown locks fringe a
broad and rounded forehead. Ewes
between blue and hazel, lighted bv in
tellectual fires, are equally ready to dart
authority or show compassion. There is
energy of character in long nose of the
purest Greek type; melancholy in a
mouth rendered doubly grave by deem

mustache, and determination in a square
chin CT leonine strength. The head.

From the Boston Transcript
I'VE are allowed by the publishers to
say that the following poem, from the
''Masque of Poets,'' is from the hand of
the late Bayard Taylor.

And saw the long lake shine.
The wind was weary, and the day
Sank languidly away
Behind the forests purple rim;
The sun was fair to me, lived for him!
did not miss you. All was sweet,
Sky, earth and soul complete
In harmony, which could afford
No more, nor spoil the chord.
Gould be blest, and you afar,
Were other ], or you, than what we are?
The sifted silver of the night
Rained down strange delight;
The moons moist beam on meadows made
Pale bars athwarts the shade,
And murmurs crept from tree to tree,
Mysterious whispers from you to me!
Istirred the embers, reused the brand
And unused: on either hand
The pedigree of human thought
Sang, censured, cheered or taught.
Pausing a. each Titanic line,
caught no echo from your soul to mine!
And last, when life recast its form
10 passive rest and warm,
Ere the soft, lingering senses cease
In sleeps half-conscious peace,
The wish might have fashioned died
In dreams that never brought you to my
side!
Farewell! my natures highest stress
Mine equal shall possess.
IT'S easier to renounce, or wait
HAPPY, the perfect fate.
My GOODNESS is the naughty fire
That naught consumes except its full de
sire!

Death no more is king.

And the crocus in the garden lifts it's bright

And in the meadows softly the brooks begin

So may we find release at last from sorrow
and from pain,
So may we tird oar childhood's calm, delicious

Sweet are your eyes, little ones. that look
with smiling grace,
Without shade Of doubt or fear into the Flu

Sing, sing in happy chorus, with joyful voices
That death is life, and God is good, and all

That bitter days shall cease
In warmth and light and peace
That Winter yields to Spring.

the non-existence of the pretty foot?

That's NV Boy!


Big blue eyes with roguish twinkle;
Dlmples ever running riot;
Busy tongue that's never quiet;
Forehead fair, with meier wrinkle;
Clustering hair of sunny hue;
Nose little snub, tits true
That's my boy!
Fun and mischief never stopping;
Teasing now for pants and boots,
And truly gun that Shoots"
Kisses on my cheekfast Dropping
Then away With shout and hop
I'LL 1cry: oh mercy, stop"
That's my boy!
Never ending, still beginnings;
Pockets full of dirt and crumbs;
Crazy over horns and drums;
Noise in all things ever winning:
Dragging he of Jim" is master,
While run for white courtplaster-
That's my boy!
Do you hear fearful noise?
Do you scent burning smell?
Do you hear curdling yell
Loud enough for twenty boys?
DO you hear while at your prayers,
Some one tumbling down the stairs?
That's my boy!
So it goes-some pain, some pleasure.
Wonder !, 'twixt tear and smile,
Will it be thus all the while
Joy and grief in equal measure?
Shall cry, in bitter sorrow,
In some dread, far-of tomorrow,
That's my boy?
All, no, no! Mothers eyes look far ahead
And mine see, with tender pride,
BY gray haired woman's side
one whom, now that years have sped,
Brave, yet gentle, is her stay;
One of whom she'll proudly say,
That's my boy!

NIGHT.

NIGHT.
Slowly the sunset fades;
Nights shadows fall:
The pale moon glimmers thro' the sh AIDES
about the poplars tall:
The rivers waves amid the reeds
Like wan gray serpents crawl.
A hushing wind doth 20
In secret, where
The rushes bend with the waves flow,
And the reeds twist like hair
Slowly stealing, till it takes the ashen
With sudden gusts of air.
Somewhere, too-late bird
Makes shrilly sound;
Close by, the marsh frogs are heard
Upon the weedy ground;
A white owl fits on ghostly wing,
And the bats swarm around.
The quivering planets shine
Through the black night;
They seem to hang like fire flies on
The tree.tops all alight;
The rustling topmost leaves all CLEAN
With silvery white.
The pale moon grows apace
A warmer hue;
It draws veil across the face
VI night, which looketh through;
1t floods the hills and hidden delIs
With misty, yellow dew.
Like pale gold dew it lies
On half-seen trees;
With broad and yellow sheets it cIads
The sloping 1owery leas; -
Its misty smile in the fair skies
Lights up the restless seas.
A hushing wind doth 20
In secret where
The reeds within the rivers flow
Wave like long twisted hair,
And dies in silence on the lips
OF lilies lying there.
