MY STRANGE LOVER,
BY WILL ARTHUR DAVIS.

l had a strange lover since last we met,
And though he brought no bridal wreath
The sweet words he spoke'I can not forget
But his name, oh. darling. twas death.
He laid his white hand on my aching head
And my cheeks were famed by his
breath,
And oh! SO sweet were the words he said,
But his name. oh. darling, twas death.
His voice was low as he pleadingly hung
Fon,lly DER the couch where lay,
And the gay. glad earth with melody rung
Like the morn of a bridal day.
He promised to give me robe OF white
And a crown for bridal wreath.
A home that was flooded with loves sweet
light.
But his name, oh. darling, twas death.
waved him away with feeble hand.
When ! thought of your love for me.
And back from the verge OF the spirit land
l have come, my darling, to thee.

those who know him best say he lied. At
anv rate. ever since ISL, the State pension
business has bee, - important and cxacting
that il has req ired the constant service of a
thousand doll clerk. The matter i, in the
hands of the Governor and. Council. who have
for eight wears very properly had the business
attended to in the office of the Aljutant Gen
cral. and under his oversight. The business
has been transacted by the efficient clerk in
that department, Maj. :. J. Gallagher But
the legislature. following the lead of Reform
