THE LAST PIPE.

When head 10 sick, and brain doth swim,
And heavy hangs caoh nnatrung limb,
lta sweet. through Gnoko-pulfB, wroathing elo'
To watch the fireiight flash and glow.
As each soft cloud floats up ON high,
some worry takes it's wings to fly;
And Fancy dances with the flame,
Who lay so labor-crarped and lame;
While the spent VIII, the slack Desire,
Rekindle at tho dying fire,
And burn to meet the morrow's sum
With all its days work to be done,
Tho tedious tansle N the law
Your work ne'ef dohe without some flaw;
Those chastity streets that drive one mad,
With children joyless, elders sad,
Young men unmanly, girls going by
Bold-yoioed, with eyes unmaidenly;
Christ died two Thousand years agone,
And kingdom come still all unwon;
Your own slack self, that win not fiAe
Whole hearted, for che great entefprise-
Well, all thehe dark thoughts OF the day
As thin smokes shadow drift away
And see, those magic rnists unclose,
And girls face hinid them grows
The very look she's won't to wear;
The wild-roge blossoms In her hair;
The wondrous depths OF her pure eyes;
The maiden soul that meath them lies
That fears to meet, yet will not fly
Your stranger spirit drawing nigh.
What II our times seem sliding downp
She lives, creations flower and CROWN
What II your way seems dull and longp
Each Zach tiny triumph over WRONG,
And she md you are brought more near
so, rapping out those ashes light,
MY pipe, you've served me we'll tonight"

chased seventy-fve acres of land on staten
Island, which was soon increased TO 3oV,
and went to work farming. During the
first wears of this activity he was chosen
receiver of the Staten Island Railroad,
and after two years of hard work, having
restored its finances to sound condition,
he was elected its President. His father
was large stockholder in this road, but, as
is well understood, lent no adventurous ald
to his elder sons career. AFTER tew years
of hard work on his farm and in the rail-
road Office, Mr.. Vanderbilt went to Europe,

Staten Island and his farm, not engaging
anv further in railroad administration until
1854. when he became, by his fathers desire
and the election of the corporation, wee
President of the New York and Harlem hail-
road. He married in 1841 Miss Nissan,
daughter of q we'll known, Brooklyn physi-
clan, by whom he had eight children, tour
boys and four girls. After assuming e4-
ecntiye control of the Harlem he was, In
1865. elected Vice President of the New
York and Hudson River Railroad. During
| the five wears that followed his entrance in
| TO railroad affairs Mr.. Vanderbilt was
probably the hardest working ex-
ecutiye in the country. He made

of administration, personally examin-

| charge and becoming acquainted with the
nature of every mans duties, and work,
and wages, and the relations they bore 10
all others employed by the corporations he
controlled. Competent critics claim that
he lifted the burdens of administration
from his fathers shoulders, and became by
the date of the consolidation of the three
New York lines under the Vanderbilt hand
into one complete trunk line system be-
tween New York and Buffalo, which was
brought about in 1869, one of the best IN
formed and most capable railway executives
in the land.

The late William II. Vanderbilt was born
In New Brunswick, N. j., May 8, 1921.

lumbia Grammar School. At IL he
entered as a clerk the house Of
Drew, Robinson & Co., leading

No one is able to divine the cause OF his rash act

bashfuuess, together with circumstances which
aggravated tast weakness, led to the at, for he
was known TO be an exceedingly modest and rct!-

for months he found it pre0ecupicd By a TITO Of
young ladies. Going in upon them, t~o o! whom

adjourned the caucus in order to hide their
confusion. Thus Senator Logan has come
