The blue sky stretches far and wide,
No CLOUD presages gloom,
The piebald prairie In Its pride
With herbage is abloom
All, me All, mel n rock, n rill,
A sky which mountains bar,
A tumbling stream, n rugged hill.
We're fairer visions fur
The mountains rise, their mist aglow;
The strenmlets sing and leap,
The vines blow purple row ON row,
Rock-sheltered viOlets peep.
Ah, lonely soar the upland pines,
The valley smiles In chains,
While up the hills climb weary vines
'Tis homo upon the plains.
Salt tears of longing and regret
Sink deep within the loan
OF foreign soil where feet are got
When hearts are left at home.

Ideal.

Each lover has some one defect,
Some lack of God.like grace,
That makes him not the one elect
10 share her heart and place;
Though for her hand the noblest sue,
She coldly shakes her head;
Until one perfect comes 10 WOO,
She VOWS she will not wed.
When wrinkles creep upon her brow
And art adorns her cheek,
There comes into her presence now
The one her soul doth seek;
Full manhood in his form and eye;
A voice that thrills her through;
And yet she weds him not the why
He seeks perfection. too.

Beaufort GIeanings,

BEAUFORT, S. c., May 5.-Aboht mid
night Saturday night our town was
aroused by fire. 1t was in the rear of
the Sea Island Hotel. All the outbuild-
Ings in the yard were burned, and at one
time it looked as if the hotel itself must
90. Proyidentally there was no wind.
Had there been, the chances are the whole
town would have been swept. AS it was,
it was a long time before the fire could be
controlled. The fire was undoubtedly in
cendiary. Beaufort is really getting to
be place of "midnight Alarms"
There is quite an epidemic of dredges
here. First we had the Leviathan dredge
from Scotland, then the BehemOth dredge
from Charleston, and now the Sea Island
Chemical Works are going TO build
Leviathan- BehemOth dredge, large as two
dredges put together. The machinery is
to be under water. That ought to bring
''spirits from the vastly deep" if anything
will.
There is another pretty little yacht, the
Wanda, from Charleston, with pleasure
party on board, visiting our town.
A sort of religiO-secular form of dssi-
patton, 80 to speak, Is going the rounds in
Beaufort this week. Last night the
colored Baptist brethren held "fesublev
at the Tabernacle. Tonight the white
Baptist "strawberry and ice cream" fes-
tival is in full blast at Warehouses;
store. Tomorrow the Roman Catholic
Sunday school has its picnic at Hundred
Pines, and the other churches are yet TO
be heard from.
Bishop Northrop, Of Charleston, visited
us on SUNDAY, and held confirmation SER
vices at the Roman Catholic church, and
also preached at night. Quite large
class was confirmed.
The Young Mems Social Club, a new
organization here, gave It's first moonlight
picnic with the moonlight left out Thurs
day night. The Pilot Boy took the party
down 10 Bav Point, and returned about IL
O'clock. Despite the threatening weather
the AFFAIR was n very enjoyable one and
proved quite a success.

latka was to make a trial trip, and with

Capt. Nogel says he found no difficulty in
reaching the wharf and it is the inten-
ton TO run the boats of that line from
Welaka to Charleston. They VIII thus
secure the handling of a large quantity of
oranges. That section can furnish much
freight in the lire of fruits, and will also
command a very large trade from the

all steamship route between Welaka and
