WRITTEN FOR THE pIsPATcE.s
The earth golden store has cast in tired reapera'
hand,
And tinted leaves bright carpets weave on forest
shaded land;
The night dew, kissed by frost-touched wind,
white-eoated gFeets the day.
That melts to sears as sun appears. soon to be
kissed away.
No song birds carol to the morn, swathsd in fog
wOve veil
Whose shadows gray shnt out the ray that in the
east is pale.
slow climbs the sun win lukswarm breath to kiss
the days full birth.
And slsdne.s bring to tosyerytAing and sIorify the
earth

needs to have some one inform it of the fact
that the President escaped the dilemma of
issuing Thanksgiving proclamation after a
defeat by getting it out before the election.

The murder Of General Corona, however, does
not appear to have been a political one. and

The Hon. Julius Dexter, ''the lone MugWump
Of Cincinnati" has been telling his friends here
to-day why Foraker was defeated. "There were
several reasons" he said, wiz: the tariff, the
Sunday-elosing law, certain appointments in
cincinnati, and the forged documents that Mr..
Halstead published in his paper. These things
changed Il, 900 votes in Hamilton county against
Governor Foraker. His appointments did not
give satisfaction, and large element Of the
liquor trade was arrayed against him. The re-
suit was, confess, somewhat of a surprise to
me-" Mr.. Dexter thinks that Calvin s. Brice
will succeed Senator Payne.
