Why press we 50 against the door that fate
Has barred upon our hearts desire Z?
Why hold our lives bereft and desolate
Because God writes their almanac In fire I?
Why should we eadden with dark.clouded
skies
When others make q ladder OF their love,
And while we deem ourselves too weak to rise,
They've climbed above
Why cit and dream In springs sweet labor
time
Unreal dreams, whose sadness make them
sweet,
And, since we mar and break our life's full
prime,
Deem that we rest contented at Gods feet?
Why cry to Heaven for lost and broken hours,
For faith and hope that faded long ago,
When still within our heart new fruitful
powers
Are budding now?
oh, eyee, turned inward on our darkcned
hearts,
open to see Gods beauty on the earth,
Self.pitying tears that now upon his smarts
Fructlfy all our barrenness and dearth;
on, folded hands, close claspt IN dull despair,
Grow busy with Gods work OF love and
peace
Oh, heart, forget to grieve, and rise to where
Misgivings cease.

A correspondent in Sonora writes:
In company with Mr.. Bates, who came
to this place with me from Hermosillo,
/ visited the settlement of the Yaqui
Indians, situated on the river of the
same name. Our entrance was an
nounced by the clamorous baying of the
dogs, who, keeping close to Dur horses
heels, followed us through the town,
which differs very little from an ordi-
nary Mexican village. The Indians are
governed by an alcade appointed by the
Mexican Government, and who is usu-
ally their chief, for, although peaceful
and law-abiding, the Yaqui is proud and
will not permit ruler save of their own
race. Before this individual we were
Immediately summoned, and Mr.. Bates,
who is well known to the chief, an
nounced the object of our visit. The
chief, who spoke Spanish fuently, as
sured us of our welcome, placing apart
ments in his own house at our disposal.
The excitement and hustle which we
imagined our arrival caused, the chief
informed us, was owing to the mar
riage on the following day of several
daughters of the tribe. Not wishing to
lose sight so interesting as this prom
ised to be, we repaired early to the
place where the ceremony was to be
performed, which had for music a sort
of drum, accompanied by fife and reed
whistles, producing a weird, though
not displeasing consonanee. Then fol-
low sports and games, which last until
well into the afternoon, when the real
ceremony of ''bride-catchingn begins.
The would-be bride is stationed by her
father some hundred yards in front of
her suitor, then at a given signal she
starts for goal distant about half a mile
to reach which and return, before over
! taken by her pursuer, releases her from
his attentions. This result, as you may
imagine, is not frequent, as these dusky
maidens are as eager to be ''caught' as
their more favored sisters of civilized
countries. Ihaye never witnessed any,
where more exciting race than this.
The maidens, straight and well-formed,
standing in their tunic dress reaching
from the bosom to the knee, stood
chatting with each other until the signal
was given, when, presto! away like the
wind they sped, followed by the young
buck, who soon diminished the distance
between them, and the marriage cere-
mony is completed, after which their
games continue until late hour, when
the village again assumes quietness
and silence only broken by the baying
of the dogs, which are a real pest in all
Mexican towns as well as among the
Indian tribes.
