I found rose on the stones today
This mid winter day, with its lowring sky
And miry streets; yet the white rose lay
In its whiteness, starting to meet my eye.
And wherefore. . Rose, with your faint
breath sweet,
And your fairness, lying meath careless
feet?
Dropped from the breast of bride, my fair,
AS they brought her home from the holy
shrine;
The bridal music haunting the air.
Deep thrilling the soul with a RI ythm divine,
Till her full heart throbbed with a new joy,
sweet,
And you left its warmth for the wintry
street?
Dropped from the bier of the blessed dead,
Do your folded leaves hold the dew of tears?
Is your fragrance prayer soft murmUred
By some pleading soul for the finished yearsi
Was the sullen chill of the crossing stone
Less cold than that pulseless heart, my own.
Fowe'er it be, you white, white Rose,
/ will lay You down girlish breast
That has never thrilled meath bridal SHOWS,
Nor yearned for the peace of unbroken rest.
You shall Hnger there till your bright, brief
day
OF beauty and bloom breathes itself away.
s. Eigar Benet in Kate Fields Washington.

considerable excitement in the Chickasaw

with the senate as Thomas reward. Gov
ernor Campbell will continue in the race
for denomination and has strong hopes
of being successful. Since they see that
the governor will not give them right-of-
way, however, the Neal-Thomas combine
has gone actively into the campaign. So
successful have they been that even the
governors friends view the future with
apprehension. Larry T. Neal has written
letters signifying his willingness to accept
the nomination for governor, and it is now
almost certain that his name will be pre-

D., under instructions from the interior
department to examine applicants for the
Haskell institute from among the Sioux
children of that and Rose Bud Agency.
The Haskell institute has been designated
as the government educational institution
to which the northern Indian children
should be sent when possible, as the eli
matte effects would not be so great. There
is little additional accommodations at Has
kell at present, but the frequent and
urgent applications for admiJtance for
children from northern tribes will no
doubt be an incentive for additional ap-
preparations, which will place Haskell on
an equality with other Indian schools.

The water was like glass. Hardly a
breath stirred the air, and butterfly
was gaily tluttering over the water, in
all confidence that it could reach the
island again. As smooth as it was,
rapidly approaching us was what APP
peared a mass of foam, coming in at the
rate of perhaps five miles an hour. Soon
il resolved itself into its component
parts, and the waves were seen TO come
from the daSheS OF gigantic fish from
below at some smaller game, The next
moment school of frightened flying
fish darted by beneath the boat. One of
the latter came flying through the air
not foot from my head. Another, that
seemed TO have started an eighth of n
mile away, struck my companion in the
back and fell into the sea: Bands of
two. three, and four of the terrified fish
dashed by before the advancing horde,
and then we were in the midst of the
whitecapS. 4 few moments before we
had feared we should not reach the spot
in season; now we feared the possibility
that one of the fish would land in the
boat, which il could not have done with
out going directly through the bottom.
