Too late the bells are ringing,
Too late the stars are singing,
Too late the winds are winging
Beneath, around, above;
Too late for clasps and kisses,
Too late for stolen blisses,
Too late the phantom hisses
For cold and dead lies Iowa.
Too late-for love was ours,
Too late-have gone the hours
When fragrant passion flowers
Once blossomed 10 our sOuls;
And nRught Is left but ashes,
Our hearts are ragged gashes,
Through which the wrnl blood splashas
And into ono soul rolls.
Nay, there Is no tomorrow,
No world that knows not sorrow,
No hope FROM which to borrow
A p-Nmisa n that bli5s
n kleN WnCn days were longer
IhAn nights, and i0He was stronger
Than pride, which makes man wrong her
HIe'd die TO hold and kiss
Too late there's no retraating
We must go forward, meeting,
With bleeding hearts Just beating,
The good or Ill that there.
But how the might Winds waiting
While two ships, sailing, sailing
Apart, heed M voice mailing
And death Is IN the air

I'm passing down the valley,
The lonely vale of tears,
Then vanish dark, and gloomy night,
Dispel these doubts and fears.
Thus sighed lonely captive
With outstretched arms 10 me,
OH rend for me these prison bars
And tell me / am free.
Sad heart long TO comfort,
For many lonely hour
I've knelt beside the mercy seat
And craved His holy power.
And many a tear OF bitterness
Steals slowly down my cheek,
My heart too full for uttorance
With thoughts dare not speak.
Take up thy burden cheerily
Nor falter meath the load,
A helping hand will comfort thee
And anguish no more gGad
Thy life Is not the only one
That suffers from the blight,
But many. many hungry souls
Are craving light this night.
The past, Is past, sad memoryi
Oh rob 1t of its sting
And In the place of pain and tears
Some sweeter memory bring.
This world is full of weeping,
Whichever way we go,
Iu palace or In cottage,
Each has Its time of woe.
II other lives than mine

The twilight falls on wood and riil
The sunllght's glenm On rippling STREAM
Illumes the fading summers dream.
New tints unfold Of gorgeous gold
And royal crimson wealth untold
Around this sweet md sure RETREAT
Where fair and flashing waters meet,
A song Of peace each wavelet huns
When sunset comes.
The deep blue sky where cloudlets lilo
Mid tlllets Of amethystiye dye;
The solitndes of sombre woods.
Mherc the deep calm of ages broods;
Like tinted glass or molten brass
Shines forth the fragrant stlssafras;
Along the ieas tall hickory trees,
Their banners tiuttering Iii the breeze,
HARDLY great crimson tinted gums
When sunset comes.
o peaceful scene OF bloom OF green
Aud softenRd rays of silver sheen,
Where twillght's shade In every glude
Half wells the queenly earth arrayed
In garments bright with gems of light
And jewels of the dusky night,
So would rest when On my breast
The bliRhting hand of death Is pressed
And the last fluttering pulse benumbs
When sunset comes.

hRrttOtu Coufant
Lieut.. Schwatka OF Arctic fame, has
goneto Alaska on nm exploring expedition
at the expense and for the benefit of the
New York Times The lieutenant's pre-
vious record entities him to respect as a
persistent and trustworthy explorer. II
he were making his present tour under
government patronage or at his own OK
pense he would undoubtedly receive re-
spectful treatment from all reputable
journals. But 1t happens that Mr.. George
Jones, the proprietor of the Times, is not
exactly beloved by some of his newspaper
competitors of the metropolis Gonse-
quently when Lieut.. Schwatka gives de.
tailed report of the discovery OF large
river, previously supposed to exist, but
not actually explored, and when lie even
ventures to name the river after his
patron, Mr.. George Jones, the rival
papers proceed with great ulnanimity to
belittle his work as an explorer and TO
ridicule his river. 1t is characteristic
metropolitan journalism, and il furnishes
lots Of fun for the public generally.
Nevertheless it does not strike the IN
biased mind rs exactly fair either TO
Lieut.. Schwatka or to Mr.. George Jones.
On the contrary, the business Of explor-
ing Alaska is mororespectable one for a
newspaper to be engaged in than the
work OF the merely sensational journalists
OF smelling around back doors TO find the
offal of private scandals or griefs to work
up into so.cnlled "newsn with startling
headlines.
