Wants to go Home.

The Maharajah Dhuleep Singh, who
has resided in England for thirty seven
years, or, in other words, since the
annexation of the Punjab has declared
his intention of returning to India early
next month. His ostensible reason is
that his allowance of 1926, 600 year is
not sufficient to enable him to reside in
Europe as becomes his rank; but the
true reason is the rejection of his de-
mands, based on his having been child
when the events took place, to be re-
leased from the consequences of the
annexation of the Puniab, and the sub,
stltution of English authority for that
of the dynasty of Runieet Singh. They
also consist of claims to private estates
in the Puniab, which, so far as indie
pendent evidence goes, never had any
existence, and to the possession of Jewels

Making n Man Of Him.

George Agustus Sala in "Under the
Sum-" says: ] had schoolmaster once
who was clever and excellent man,
but little mad, and who had a craze
about making boys "hardy." He was
pleased to fix upon me as ''chllly NOR
tai, - and expressed a determination to
make man of me-" The process of
manufacture demanded that when was
smuggling over the fire and book in
playtime | should be driven forth into
the bleak and bitter open ito play"
Now never could play. At this date,
when | am grizzllng, | scarcely know
cricket bat from a stump, or prison
er's base from FOUNDERS. l never could
throw a ball or catch one properly; and
in childhood l was utterly unable even
to tuck in my two penny" at leapfrog
or to drive a hoop. So, while hun
dred merry lads round me raced and
gambolled l used to lurk in a corner of
the playground and shiver. We had
large bath room and always with the
benevolent idea of making a man of
mel | was put through bastard course
of hydropathy. l declare that in the
midst of the most biting winter weather
| have undergone the cold douche, the
cold shower bath, and the cold sitz:
that have been packed in wet sheets;
that have been made to put dry pair
of socks over wet PAIR, and thus ac-
coutred have been ordered to walk from
Hammersmith to Kew Bridge, before
breakfast, in the dark, to make me
hardy" Unless another boy of the
same 'hardy" breed was sent with me
to see that | went through my training
properly, used to perform the journey
from Hammersmith to Kew Bridge by
sneaking to the widow Crump's shop at
Turnham Green-she sold fruit, toys,
periodicals and sweetstuff-and sitting
by the fire in her little parlor, drinking
warm gingerbeer and reading the lives
of the pirates and highwaymen.
As it Glanced, my good crazy mastes

A SPRING SONG

Sweet! let me see thine eyes, and place thine
hand,
Thy fair small hand, III mine; nay tho1
canst trust
love thee SO! None other in the land
Can love as l.
Nay, do not sigh.
Spring walks the earth and whispers thee
Thou must
Be one with me-and join my happy band p
Sweet! kiss me on the bps each day that:
born
Brings US new beauties. springtide has
begun,
Yon hedge was black and bare but yester-
morn,
Until the sun
Its prize had won
And with kiss, the sweet buds that did scorn
His vows, were bought-'twas thus the deed
was done.
Sweet lay thee in mine arms-close to my
heart
The life-blood rises, pulses but for thee.
See, as the sun shines forth how shades
depart,
Away they flee;
They must not be,
Where love ahd Springtide act their joyous
part,
Where thou and I shall wonder presently,
Fair fower-buds that all this Wintertide
Have lain asleep, are blooming in yon bed
Whispering and nodding, as there side by side.
For once before
They loved and kissed, till Autumn's leaves
were shed,
And when they slept, the world was bleak and
wide.
Nay and thou hast not loved; Pn teach thee,
sweet
What were thy life, should love meier be the
prize,
'Twere Spring without its flowers. Life is
feet,
Love mo, mine own,
Fer Spring be flown;
'Tis true that clouds will hide these dappled
skies.
That we must part, need not forbid we meet !?
Sweet-let me see thine heart! springtide is
there
The flower of love was born there yesterday.
What though nor I nor thou can'st truly swear
That there for aye
Twill live alway,
IT'S now the Spring-'tis now thou'rt fresh
and fair;
So let US love--e'er Springtide dies awayl

MAI. HALLSTR0M DEAD.

The town was shocked last Mon4
day afternoon to hear that Major o..
H. Hallstrom was dead. Sunday af-
ternoon he went to the post Office for
his mail, apparently in his usual
health, but before he had reached his
rooms, only few steps, he was
stricken down with congestion of the
stomach, trouble to which he has
been subject for some time. Every
thing possible was done to relieve his
suffering, but with little success. At
about three pm. Monday he breathed
his last, fully conscious and apparent
ly willing to go. He wrs a member
of the Lutheran church, and had
been for many years. His remains
were followed to the grave by large
number of our citizens, where relig-
ious services were conducted by Rev.
j. p. Weaver of the Baptist church
and Rev. j D. Lewis of the G. P.
church, no minister of his own church
being here. Maj. Hallstrom was
born in Lanskone, Sweden, on the
9th of January, 1927, and conse-
quently would have been sky years
old at his next birthday. He came
to America when quite young man,
lived in Mississippi and in New Or
leans several years, and moved here
about eighteen years ago, where he
bought considerable property, and
where he, with his wife, has conduc,
ted a successful business ever since.
He was Major of Mississippi regi,
ment in the Confederate service, thus
proving his love for his adopted coun-
try. which he retained to the last.
He was one of the politest, pleasant
est gentlemen we ever knew-a friend
to all, and having no enemies that we
know of. His genial smile and
cheerful presence will be sadly missed
in Milan, and by none more than his
heart broken widow, who has the
heartfelt sympathy of all in her ire.
