BY BERNARD BARTON.
Beautiful, sublime. and glorious;
Mild, majestic. foaming, free
Over time itself victorious,
Image Of eternity!
Sun and moon aud stars shine DER thee,
See thy surface ebb and flow.
Yet attempt not TO explore thee
In thy soundlcss depths below.
Whether mornings splendOr steep thee
Win the rainbOw's glowing grace,
Tempest rouse. or navles sweep thee,
'Tis but for a moments space.
Earth, her valleys and her mountains,
Mortal mans behestS obey;
The uufathomable fountains
ScOh his search and sc0rn his sway.
Such art thou, stupendOus ocean!
But, II overwhelmed by thee.
Can we think, without emotion,
What must Thy Creator be!

did not know the prices the Chicago
house had made 10 the farmer, and OF
course he was making about his usual
figures on the goods. The farmer
bought the goods of the local merchant.
Mr. ID GOlladaY read the article, and a
few days later called us in the store
and remarked that he had had like
experience. a gentleman had a cata-
loguc from the same house, which han
dies almost everything needed by the
farmer, and from it he had selected
fine Bible. Before sending for it he
asked Mr. Golladay what he could sell
him the same Bible for and was rather
startled to nave n price quoted to him
80 cents cheaper than the Chicago
house. OF course he purchased the
Bible OF Mr.. Golladay. The moral OF
this is TO patronize your home mcr-
chants"

Editor Stratton, of the Marshall
Democrat News, joins the Intelligencer
in a laudable work. lie says:
"The Lexington Intelligencer is
urging the old soldiers of Lafayette TO
90 TO work to raise funds for the ex-
confederate home. The southern men
of Saline should join in the same work.
| There are n few old ex-cOniederates
who are disabled and poor-thank God
HOT many are in that unfortunate con-
dition-but those who are needy have
a strong claim upon every southern
man."

superintendent of the Independent Mes
scngcr company, j. A. Topper, manager
of the Butte Electric Light company and
Mr.. Smith of the Telephone company,
made an examination to-day of the fire
alarm system. Mr.. Sommcrs, one Of the
original members of the committee was
unable to take part and appointed Mr..
Smith To act i'm his stead. Tho report of
the committee has not yet bcen formu-
lated. but Will be ready for submission To
the city council at its meet
ing Wednesday. One of the ex-
pcrts, Mr.. Ecker, informed a
STANDARD reporter that the examination
was highly satisfactory. the system nav
ing stood every test imposed. The cabi-
net at the central office was moved from
its position against the wall and every
thing connected with il subjected to a
thorough examination and every test that
could he suggested applied. The doors of
two alarm boxes were found in need of
oiling, otherwise everything appeared i'm
good condition.
Al the suggestion Of the committee Mr..
Stockwell. superintendent OF construction
Of the system, has begun To place small

from the boxes 10 the poles in order to in
sure absolute dryncss Of the interior Of the
boxc and to prevent m possibility of
