Last night. at half past 10. he went up to his
room and was just in the act of striking a
match, when he was struck terrible blow
on the head. It was a glancing blow, how
ever, and Tumey was not too badly stunned
to cry out for assistance, whereupon his
assailant fled: He had secreted himself in
aged to escape and has not yet been APP

saws that the Senate committee on relations

They saw nothing while on the Pacific
coast to indicate any ill feeling on the sub

to expect trouble with Canada or Eng

contrary, he thinks all the governments
concerned will cooperate to protect the
seal fisheries from piracy. The question of
the closed sea need not be raised for this

HOLLY-HOCKS.

Years ago, when pansies were known
only as Johnny.jump-ups, and fuchsias and
geraniums were all imported from foreign
lands and cost two dollars a smell, holly
hooks were the pride of every garden, and
held sway along with the peony and cab
bage rose. But the memorable DEGREES of
fashion ordered them all onto the back
seat, and there they have sat and patiently
bided their time like the plain-skirted dress
until the tickle world has gone through the
dizzy programme OF fancy varieties in flow
ers and in attire, and now they find them
selves trotted out, the lust of years shaken
out of their garments. and they given .
prominent position in the flower garden.
They have been doubled up and colored
up BY the manipulations of the florist, un-
til people wonder why their beauties were
never discovered before. This is a tickle
world, and that's what relieves the mono
tony and makes business. The holly-hock
should make good use of it's time, for next
year somebody Of wealth end influence will

ORIGIN OF 1--WE WONT 60 HOME

An interesting history of an old and well
known comic tune was given by Professor
Ensel, a music teacher, in a speech in the
Music Teachers Association recently. he
said that when the army of the first Napo-
leon was in Egypt in 1899 the camp for
awhile was near the Pyramids. One after
noon about sunset the band was playing.
The inhabitants of the desert had collected
near and were listening to the music.
Nothing unusual happened until the band
struck up the tune which we now hear UNI
der the name Of "We Won't Go Home
Till Morning" Instantly there were tie
widest demonstrations of joy among the
Bedouins. They embraced each other and
shouted and danced in the delirium of
their pleasure. The reason was that they
were listening to the favorite and oldest
tune of their people. Professor Ensel then
stated that the tune had been taken to
Europe from Africa in the Eleventh GEN.

arately in both countries for over 700 years.

THE SOUTH WIND.

over the fields, where the dew was wet,
over o meadow with daisies set,
Shaking the pearls in the spiders net,
The soft south wind came stealing.
IT was full OF the scent of the sweet wild rose;
And it fingered along, where the streamlet
flows,
Till 1t made the forget-me-nots' eyes u~nelose,
And started the biae-bells pealing.
Under the measureless blue of the sky,
Drifting the silvery cloudlets by,
Drinking the dew-brimmed 1ower-cups dry,
The warm south wind was blowing.
1t was sweet with the breath of a thousand
springs;
And it sang to the grasses, as ever it sings,
With 6 sound like the moving of myriad
wings.
Or the whisper OF wild flowers growing.
Over the fields, in the evening glow,
stirring the trees, as the sun sank low,
swaying the meadow-grass to and fro,
A breeze from the south came creeping.
1t rocked the birds in their drowsy nest;
1t Graded the blue-eyed grass to rest;
And its goodnight kisses were softly pressed
On pale white roses sleeping.
And only the stars and the ~firefies knew
How the south wind murmered the whole
night through,
In scented fields where the clover grew
And soft white mists were breathing.
For it stole away, when the night was spent,
And none could follow the way it went;
But the wild flowers knew what the wind.
song meant,
As they walked to its last low breathing.

Capital is but a form of Labor


1t was not the workman alone who fail
ed for a time to appreciate this fact. There
are some notable and unhappy examples
OF capitalists, too, who failed to grasp its
full meaning. TO be honest, it may be
said that the working man was the first to
take practical cognizance of it. But the
thing is better understood now. There
are a few fools-it is well to call men and
things by their real names-who are still
talking about the conflict between labor
and capital There is no such thing.
There is at odd times a few differences
about the arrangement OF the household
furniture, and occasionally each imagines
that he and she is conducting a vigorous
quarrel with the other. There are threats
of separation, but they don't separate, and
they cannot. for one cannot live without
the other. Labor and capital are one. One
produces the otherl Each snstains the
other.
And that is the principle that the laborer
and the capitalist alike are going on just
at presently. 7. Nail and Express.

LABOR AND CAPITAL ALIKE.

1t is the fashion in some quarters to

some others to praise him. 1t is not neces-

be said, however, that Henry George has
spoken some bold and truthful words to
both the man who labors with his hands
and the man who may happen to control
capital. There is one truth that he has
spoken that concerns both and that ought
to be hung in every workshop and Office.
It would really make a good motto. and
