The Blue and the Gray Together
FOR DECORATION DAY.
BY MARY a. BARR.

Flowers for the men who lost,
Flowers for the men who won,
The Blue and the Gray together;
Ont in the winter frost.
Out in the summer sun,
The Blue and the Gray together.
Tears for the fallen brave,
Never word of blame,
The Blue and the Gray together,
Have each quiet grave,
:. Have each spotless fame,
The Blue and the Gray together.
Sorgs for noble Cause;
Songs for newborn Hope,
The Blue and the Gray together.
Bring now the sweetest rose,
Lilies and heliotrope
For the Blue and Gray together.
The Blue and Gray together.
Ont in the summer weather,
Out in the wintry weather;
Sing thrush and robin DER each lonely
grave!
Sigh, gentle winds, and tell
To the pale asphodel.
"The Blue and gray sleep well. sleep
well together"

HULL'S VICTORY.

Apoem with the above title. describ-
ing the fight between the American
frigate Constitution and the British ship
Guerrero in the war of 1912 Was pub
lished forty years ago, and became very
popular. The author is unknown. a
CORRESPONDENT of the New York Eve
ming Post has resuIrected the old vers-
es, and they are printed by that paper,
as follows:
l often have been told
That the British seameu bold
Could beat the tars of France neat and
handy, o.
But they never found their match,
Till the Yankees did them catch,
For the Yankee tars for fighting are the
dandy, o!
G, the Guerrero so bold,
On the foaming ocean rolPd,
Commanded by proud Dacres the grand
ee, OF
With as choice British crew
As rammer ever drew,
They could beat the Frenchmen two to
one so handy, OF
When this frigate hove in view,
90" saws DacreS to his crew,
"Prepare for action, and be handy, o!
On the weather gauge we'll get her,
And to make the men fight better
We will give to them gunpowder and
good brandy, or
Now this boasting Briton cries,
make that Yankee ship your prize;
You can in thirty minutes do it handy, ,Ol
Or i'm twenty-five, I'm surei
II you'll do it in score,
I'll give you double share of good
brandy, o.
~When prisoners we've made them, 81
With switchell we will treat them;
Well welcome them with Yankee Doc
die Dandy. Or
o, the British balls flew hot,
But the Yankees answered not
Until they got a distance that was
handy, o!
90" saws Hull unto his crew,
ave will try what We can do.
II we beat these boasting BritOns we're
the dandy, Or
The first broadside we poured
Brought the mizz, II by the board,
Which doused the royal ensign quite
handy, o!
o Dacres he did sigh
And to his officers did cry,
20, didn't think the Yankees were so
=. handy, o. p
The second told so well
That the fore and mainmast fell,
Which. made the lofty frigate look quite
+ dandy, O!
"Or says Dacres, "we're undenel"
Sol fires lee gun.
And the. .drummers struck up Yankee
Doodle Dandy, OF
When Dacres came OH board
To deliver up his sword,
He WAS 10th To part with it, it looked SO
handy, OF
"You may keep it" says brave Hull,
What makes you look SO dull?
Cheer up, and take glass of good
brandy, o!
o, BritOns, now be still,
Sincs we've hooked you in the gill;
Don't boast upon your Dacres, the grand
ee, o.!
i"Come, fill your glasses full.
And we'll drink to Captain Hull,
And so merrily we'll push about the
brandy, o!
John Bull may boast his fill,
Let the world say what it will,
But the Yankee boys for fighting are
Z the dandy. or

steadily through Wal-Street into the
East River. There exists in New York
. certain class Of sharp financiers, who,
having no money of their own to invest,
give their whole mind to the investment
Of other peoples money. These in
vestments are permanent, in fact, for
the most part, too permanent. The adj
vertisments of these philanthropists ex.
plain that they have facilities for loan
ing money on first martgage security of
choice farms in the West, where the
legal rate of interest IS almost double
what it Is in some Of our Eastern States,
and where the security is more ample
than can, in the majority of cases, be
obtained here in the East. This reads
well, but1when the investor is further
assured Of ''9 per cent. guaranteed"
We can readily understand that here and
there an amateur capitalist might be Sc
duced into investing in these precious
securities. The advertisement naively
states that s'these investments are un-
like other investments. IN. =. Times.
