THE DAILY RECORD UNION
A COMPLAINT,


81 II we had only known" we say and sigh,
Folding our hands in enforced idleness
The time Is past for seeing eye to eye;
Deaf is the ear that listened for our .' Yes
That long, long fingered, came in doubtful tone
All me, ah me, ii We had only known!
III we had only known how short the day,
The bright, brief day, that went in sunshine by
How we had garnered every golden ray
To heap treasure for the by and by
The barren by and by, whose stony soil
Yields such scsnt harvest to our heavy toll
II we had only known how fair the land
Through which we wandered, blue the skie:
DER head,
Fragrant the blossoms heaped on either hand,
Joyous the caroling of birds new-wed.
Sure we had fingered in the how'ry close,
And stilled the voice that lured US from repnse
Ii we had only known how slight the thread
The fates had spun US for our time of bliss,
How frail the rose whose petals soon were shed,
How eager had we been not one to miss
OF all those blessings brio ht, and brief and sweet
That sprang like summer how'rs around our feet
Ii we had only known we might have filed
Evry small moment with world of bliss.
Have never mourned precious joy-cup spilled,
Or felt the bitterness of hours ike this
I" II we had only knownl' we say and sigh,
And let the Present with the Past go by.
Ii we had only known Could we e'er turn
Tn answering course OF Nature aid of Fate,
Make this bleak sky like Roman heavens burn,
Teach the young heart what gain it is to wait,
Hew sculptors marble with willow wand,
Or bind the ocean with rope of sand?
II we had known How vain is the lament
dow worse than vain Had knowledge beer
our own,
We still had gone the devious way we went,
With added burdens set 10 make US grsan.
In mercy not in cruelty, does Fate
Hide knowledge from US till it comes too late.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

The Rev. DR.. Cummings will not take
the offered Presidency of Northwestern
University.
a large class has just been graduated
from the Massachusetts, Institute of Tech
nology. 1t included two young women
who had successfully completed the four
years course.
The visionary project of great German
University in Milwaukee is one which all
Americans must smile at. This is not
barbarous region, needing a nucleus of for
eign culture.
An unpleasing comment on the energy
of the modern student is fact stated in
regard to the Columbia School of Mines
that the statistics of the school show that
not more than 80 per cent. of the students
graduate with the class they enter.
NJ Gambetta is firm believer in the
eligibility of woman as teacher. He de-
clares himself convinced that in the edu.
cational work of the future the women of
France will honorably bear their share as
the legislation of the country enables them
| to assert their competency and authority.
The Rev. A. d. Mayo, who has lately
travelled through the South, takes cheer

declares that there is an increasing enthu-
siasm on the subject and that the chief need
at present is of more discussion. Good
country schools are especially wanted-the
cities are comparatively well supplied.
Hamilton College is to receive the $780,
| 600 which the late Hon. James Knox left
to an agricultural college in Illinois ON con-
dition that it. should raise a certain sum
itself. The condition was not complied
with, and, in accordance with Mr.. Knox s
will, Hamilton gets the money. Com
mencement exercises at Hamilton begin
Saturday, June 25th.
! A new college for technical education
has recently been established in London,
and Prince Leopold has laid the foundation
stone of building which is to cost about
Sl25. 900. In little speech the Prince
said "The old apprenticeship system,
whatever its merits may be, and whatever
| good work it may have done in the past, is
not equal to the exigencies of the present
age, and we are beginning to realize that a
thorough and liberal system of technical ed
ucation must be placed within the reach of
the British artisan, in order to enable him
to hold his own against foreign competi-
ton.
The Society to Encourage Study at
Home now has pupils in thirty seven
States, three provinces of Canada and one
in Bermuda. 1t is conducting work in
English literature, the fine arts, the sci
ences, in music, mathematics, French and
German, and it is constantly widening its
sphere. OF the whole number of pupils 76
per cent. have persevered in their work.
| The lending library now includes LOSS
volumes. The teaching grows more special
lied and objective every year. The society
| is full of force, and there are no end of vol
unteers for the work. Among the students

CHICAGO, April 16.-From seven columns
of telegraphic reports from the great cereal
growing States of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
Missouri, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota,
Kansas and Kentucky, which represent all
parts OF the Western winter wheat region,
the Times Of this city draws the following
conclusion:
while an immense amount Of damage
was done the crop by the severity of the
past season, there is not the slightest danger
OF general failure OF the harvest on that
account, and while our information is that
the crop Is In backward condition, the re-
ports do not intimate failure anywhere.
1.-The fact OF large harvests and high
prices OF the past two or three years has
encouraged the planting of such largely
increased acreage ia most localities as to
offset to a great extent the injury suffered
in great many sections. The heavy SHOWS
of winter furnished invaluable protection
against the intense cold, and the lateness of
spring has continued the defense through
the critical period of the alternate thaws
and frosts of March. On the whole,
1t appears that unless disastrous
late frosts or other unfavorable conditions
materially impair the present, prospect,
the yield Is likely to be not much less
tnan tnab OF lase year. Inc FARMERS OF IL
linois and Indiana IN some sections seem to
have suffered more severely than those of
other States.
Extended reports from the Western fruit
sections show that the peach orchards of
portions OF Illinois are so badly damaged
That little or no fruit can be expected, while
in other parts of the State the yield will be
only fair. The Michigan peach belt has
suffered severely. In some places there is
total ruin of the buds. The same is true
of Ohio, and as far South as Alabama and
Texas the peach trees have suffered from
the winters severity"

TWO Women and a Child Found
Murdered-A Cattle Herder Sus-
pected.

GALVESTON, April 16.-A special from
San Antonio, dated April 18th, gives the
details Of horrible triple murder about
seven miles from that city. John Simmons,
heavy stock owner, left his home on Sun
day. Yesterday his herder, named j. 8.
Phillips, went out with sheep. About noon
Mrs. Simmons was found lying
in the herder's room with her throat
cut, and her body bearing evidence
OF outrageous assault. The alarm was given,
and soon after the bodies of Mrs. Simmons
and child, and her mother, Mrs. Parker,
were found at the foot of the embankment,
one hundred yards from the house. Their
skulls were crushed In with rock. The
herder seems to think that Simmons was the
murderer, but he himself was arrested and
committed without bail.
