Watches Placed Over Them.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH
SOMERSET, March l2-The placing of the
death watch over the Nicely boys last night
was done by Sheriff Good in rather Jocular
way. He went first to the cell of Joseph and
informed him that he had brought him a room-
mate. Joe said he was glad of it, but vlsibly
weakened when told it was Mcmillan as death
watch, as the Pardon Board had refused to
reopen the case. Mcmillan is the man who
was shot by Joe when he made his first attempt
TO escape.
Dave Nicely received the news very quietly
and only remarked that he could get along
without quarreling. Both men slept badly last
night and refused an interview with the news
paper men yesterday, and were rather prepared
for the placing of the death watch.

THE SHEPHERD OF THE LIRO.

Adown the Alpine vale our way we wendell
Toward fair Italia, wrapt in rosy haze;
And ever. when We thought the path had ended,
New vistas opened to our wondering gaze.
Dark rocks lay strewn by ancient avalanches
Where chestnuts clustered in bury bower,
And often, o er the autumn-ambered branches,
slender eampanile thrust its tower.
The eyes we looked into were deep and dusky
Alive with laughter, yet with hints of pain
The onward-luring air was warm and musky,
Blown over Como from the Lombard plain.
And still alert for beauties unbeholden,
Rounding rock-ledge rearing bare and steer,
We saw, where stood crumbling archway
oden,
An aged shepherd followed by his sheep.
His cloak hung crosswise from his stopping
shoulder.
While in his hand he held sturdy crook:
bowlder,
Nor did he guide them by word or look.
And through the arch in happy hearted frolic
We watched them press behind him one by
one,
Until our new Virgilian bucolic
Vanished as swiftly as the vanished sun.
Then viole. shades crept down the winding
valley
HAnd hid the path our shepherd straved along:
We heard the peasants on their homeward rally.
Stirring the silence with vintage song.
Ere long another roadway did we follow
Far into dreamland there did we behold
The aged one. in some leaf-sheItered hollow
Leading his flock benignly to the fold.
