CAPAY VALLEY.
VISION OF THE NEAR FUTURE.

VISION OF THE NEAR FUTURE.
IN that garden of nature, the vale of Capay,
Where lame the ripe clusters of luscious Tokav;
Where the bloom Of the orange will perfume the
breeze,
And the rich fruits hang low on the beautiful
trees,
In touch with the city, yet far from the world.
His sword in its scabbsrd. his batile-asg furled,
The veteran, By lies hundred battles OPP
pressed,
May find here his Eden-his valley of rest.
But not only veterans congreeate here;
For the young and ambitious have chosen this
sphere,
Where the guerdon of skill and the diligent
hand
Are drafted on nature and paid on demand.
They care tor their trees in contentment ana
And journey through fruits and through flowers
TO wealth
lis manly existence; to those who endure,
VINO piow Ia the rain, shall the harvest be sure.
would that the toiler IN city or town
Could see the green hills sloping easily down.
The park-like old trees, with cool shadows be-
low
The rich bottom lands and the clear rivers
flow,
And could see the bright hope-light that shin
Ger the fair fields and orchards of lovely Ca.
pay;
The envy that seized them might SOME of them
move
To make their own homes in the valley we love.
Can any one picture msnlier life?
Ffee-out of the smoke of the turmoil and
strife.
Yet fronting the battle; each holding mis- own,
Determined to win, and 10 do it alone.
tell you there's grit in a boy who takes hold
OF place of his own with hand firm and
bold
And there's brain in man who can make his
own way
He deserves his bright future in happy Capay.
For the valley will laugh with the blossom OF
spring,
Ip tribute 10 those who their labor shall bring.
The fg and the olive, the peach and the pear,
The almond and apricot heavily bear
The hills will rain down their rich tunnage OF
wine.
The sun will lend color and odor divine
For nature has smiles for her fayorites still,
Who are strong and who WOO her with iudg-
ment and skill. r. A. B.

Northern Lights.

Auroras are most frequently seen in the
cold and in the northern temperate zone,
rarely in the southern temperate zone, and
hardly ever in the tropics. The places
where they most frequently appear lie be-
tween the sixtieth and SEVENTEEN degrees
of north latitude. In the form OF an oval,
they include the geographical as well as
the magnetic North Pole, which is to be
found on the peninsula Boothia Felix,
Iceland, the Kara Sea, northern Siberia,
Behring Strait, Hudson Bay, Labrador and
Greenland. Northern lights have been
seen as far down as the twenty-fifth degree
of north latitude. In full splendor, how
ever, they may be seen only in the north
ern polar regions to the seventy-ffth de-
gree of north latitude. Here nature is
displayed in all her grandeur. When the
sun is set, and the gray veil of twilight is
cast over the earth, the northern horizon
grows darker and darker Soon there
may be distinguished segment of the sky
more somber than its background; this is
hemmed in by white concentric arcs of
light. Colored rays shoot forth there
from all directions. They interlace and
intertwine until they seem to be woven
into one futtering band of color. And
anon it changes to sea of FIRE! The rays
leap upward far above the zenith, form
there flaming crown, and then sink back
to begin anew the wondrous play. The
most beautiful descriptions and trust
worthy observations we owe to Nordensk-
jold and Ekama. All explanation which
have been attempted as to the origin and
the cause Of northern lights are based on
analysis by the srectroscope, on the de-
termination Of the elevation, and on OBJ
servations Of the peculiar behavior of the
magnetic needle William Stosz, In Pop1-
