FABLE FOR CRITICS.
On Holicon, the blOssoming,-
Beside the Hippoorenean spring.
Eutsrpe sought Calliopo
The day great Homer ceased TO be.
Such tears ofsympathetic woe
As from goddess eyes may flow.
Wero trembling brightly on her check,
As thus the muse ossoyod to speak:
ALIAS alas sweet sister mine,
Dear chief of all our gracious Nine
twhat avail are harp and Lutte,
Now his-the master 's-vOice lie muteY
Der all the Grecian hills and plains,
No worthy bard prolonRs his strains.
We walk boreft; with Homer dead,
The age of pOesy is hedP
With smile serene, majestic, proud,--
Like sunshine breaking from a cloud
Fear not my SITTER lit thy head
Thus 0rpheus's mother gently said:
zee yonder valley like the sea,
In rippling reaches spreading free
Though every yerdant, grassy wave
We're heaped above poets grave,
And each young leaf upon its stem
Thrilled to singers requiem,
And not breeze across tho plain
But bore some minstrel's dying strain:-
Yet, while before Aurora's car
The gates Of morning stand ajar,
And Luna, night by night revealed,
still leads her starry hOcks ahoid;
While, fearless, down the mountain steep
Tho crelted torrents laugh and leap,
Aud yearning rivers wander wide
10 swell the pulses of the tide;
While nymphs disport In woody dolls,
Whore lilies swing their odorous bells
While lovers kiss at SGT of day,
And mothers watch their babes at play,
And soldiers arm, and women weep,
And once swift footed heroes sleep,
Deaf TO the battles mingled noise,
Beneath the walls OF other Troys;
While from olympus sacred hight
Wide swing the cloud yelled gates of light,
And Ger Elysian meadows rove
The blessed shades Of buried love-
The deathless soul Of poetry
Out Of the dust Of men to DO
Shall shape the hand to strike the Tyre,
The singing lips, the hoart of fire
Endless tho sacred cil Giles run;
Many the forms, the life is onol
The last of the 0lympian race

Gen. Fairchild to learn what all the row
was about.
general, has the Duluth custom house
been aboiShedE
Not at all. 1t was there half an hour ago
as an official telegram would seem to indi-
cate
SIS there any foundation for the report
that the port OF Duluth has been wiped out of
eXiStence!
s.None whatever, unless it is my recon-
mendatiou to congress that q bill be passed TO
abolish Duluth and number of other ports
of entry
Has any action been taken by the Zenith
City people 10 hold their own?"
Congressman Nelson was in here this
morning, and should say that if facts aud
figures and plenty of good Norwegian argu-
ment would keep that office running it would
run not only this year but forever. Nelson
will save the Duluth custom house guess in
spite OF my report"
Il heard to-day you had put the Office out
of existence by an executive order?"
Il could not do it. That power of the sec
rotary of the treasury only applies to ports of
delivery such as st. Paul is. Ports of entry
rest rock-rooted in the law. Nothing but an
act of congress and the presidents signature
can abolish the Duluth custom house."
Congressman Nelson was II ext seen. He was
told what the secretary had said and replied
"Glad to hear it. | don't think congress will
adopt Mr.. Fairchild's suggestions. l have
been before the committee on ways and
means and asked for a hearing when the bill
is taken up III the committee. 1t has been
referred to subcommittee of Breckenridge,

Congressman Mckinley was next seen.

get to it, and if we did Mr. Hewitt and my
self are opposed to abolishlng the port of
