Pacing the twilight out beneath an oak,
Soul calling soul TO Judgment, and We spohs
Strange things. as deep as ever poet penned,
Such truth Gs never truth again can mend
Whatever art we win, what gods invoke;
Not wrnth's indignity. not strife and smoke;

Farewell in peacei We OF the seIfsame throne

Each a wise skeptic Of the others star.
Silently. as we went our ways alone,
The steadfast sun. whom no poor prayer deoerR
Drew nigh between US his majestic bar.
Mine wds the mood that shows the dearest facs
Through a long avenue, and voices kind.
Idle and lndeterminate, and blind,
As rumors from a very distant place;
Yet, even so, IL gathered the first chase
or the first swallows where the inne's inclined;
An ebb Of wavy wings to serve my mind
For round springs vision All, some equal grace
The calm sense OF seen beauty without sigh
Fell on thee, honorable heart no less,
In patient stupor waking from the dawn;
Albeit thou vert the loser OF loves lighn,
Like fallen Adam In the Wilderness, .at.

now being exhibited In Liverpool, by
means Of which an Italian named Carlo
Bozza cannot only give-without other
aid than ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS upon
a variety Of musical Instruments at the
same time, but can also reproduce the
music at any distance. Signor Bozza
has also invented a new musical instru-

made of porcelain, and from it he Is said
to produce music, unique In sweetness

Tho evolution of the railway and Of
its rolling stock follows the same laws
which govern the rest Of the world:
adaptation to circumstances decides what
is httest, and that alone survived The
scrap heap of q great railway tells its
Own story.
Our railways have now reached n de-
%velopment which is wonderful. The
railways of the United States, II placed
continuously. would reach more than
half way to the loon. Their bridges
alone would reach from New York TO
Liverpool Notwithstanding the num-
Der Of accidents that we read Of in the
daily papers, statistics show that less
persons are killed annually on railways
than are killed by falling out of win
dows.-Thomas Curtis Clarke in Scrib-

TYPOGRAPHICAL.

Gen. Benjamin Harrison, the Republi-
can candidate for president, comes from
an old English family. His ancestors
emigrated to this country in the revolu-
tionary days. One of them subsequently
signed the declaration of independence.
Gen. VIM. Henry Harrison, who won
renown as an Indian fighter aud was elect
ed president in 1910 was the grandfather
of the present aspirant to hat office.
BENJAMIN Harrison was born at North
Bend, o., August 20, 1888. He entered
the Miami university at Oxford, O., at
the & of lG and was graduated two
years later. He studied law in Cincin-
natl and upon being admitted removed
to Indianapolis in 1854 Those
were lively political times. In
1850. he was nominated and elected SUI
preme court reporter. In July, 1862,
under President Lincoln's call for 300, 900
three years troops, Harrison was appoint
ed to assist in recruiting a regiment and
was subsequently chosen its colonel.
Although not seeing very much service
he was advanced to the grade of brigadier
general. In 1868 he declined a renomi-
nation for supreme court reporter. In
1876 he was nominated for governor to
fill a vacancy caused by the resignation of
the regular nominee. He was defeated.
In 1880 his name was mentioned in con-
nection with the Republican nomination
for the presidency, but he himself checked
the movement. He had his eyes on the
United States senate, and a Republican
Legislature having been selected he was
accorded the prize, replacing Senator Nc
Donald. His term expired in March,
1887. He was not re elected though the
Indiana legislature was still Republican.
Since the date mentioned he has prac-
ticed law in indianapolis.
Levi p. Morton is descended from
George Morton, one of the Puritan fathers
who landed at Plymouth. New England,
in 1923, and is a son of the late Rev.
Daniel Morton. His birthplace was
Shoreham, Vt, where he first saw the
light on May l6, 1924. Having u strong
preference for d business career when l6
years OF age he was placed in a country
store. BY the time he attained his ma.
iority he was made a partner by his EN-,
ployer. In 1919 he removed to Boston,
where he was admitted as a partner in a
wealthy mercantile firm, good fortune due
10 his ability alone. as he had neither
adequate capital nor influential friends to
gain him the promotion. Five years after
he made New York his residence, and
opened a place of business in that city.
Prosperity attended him, and in 1868 he
founded the banking houses of Morton,
Bliss & Co, New York. and Morton,
Rose & Co.. London.
Mr.. Morton was elected to congress
from the eleventh district of New York in
1878 as a Republican. His majority was
over 1000 votes. lie was reelected two
years after. President Garfield nomi
mated him as minister to France, which
was unanimously confirmed by the senate
in March, 1881. The vacant seat thus
created in the house of representative
was filed by Roswell p. Flower, after a

The vampire bat, which at night sucks
the blood of people who are asleep, has
been said to be a myth But the expert
enc Of Rev. Mr.. caough, a missionary In
South America, Is to the effect that the
ugly creatures are a reality. He was In
the Euro de Uraria district, north of the
Amazon river. Some of his companions
had been bitten at night and found
themselves bloody on waking In the
morning. Mr.. Clough stayed awake one
moonlight night to watch for vampires
Two OF them came and lowered over
him, tanning him with their leathery
wings. Having provided himself with a
club and a net he caught one of them,
which proved to be twenty-three inches
across the wings This specimen was
sent to the South American Missionary
society of London, and Is now in that
society's museum.-New York Press

Events may very considerably modify the
foregoing tables and render some of those
states classed as Republican decidedly
doubtful. If the Republicans had put up
really strong men whose personal popular
ity was so great as to closely draw the
party lines this contingency would per
haps be impossible. but as things stand
now it is very liable to result in a pretty
clean sweep of the board.

racing men were culled, and of racing events

in dress or racing. His trousers were always
too short for him, or, as the lrishman would
say, he always puts his legs too far through
them He wore waistcoat too small for
him a dark blue coat with brass buttons, and
a tall hat. And so attired he rode each day

success an racing The sires were indifferent
