IN TuERTo CANYON.

The white moon hangs on tattered sky.
A brooch on . beggars breast;
A young wind laughs as it loiters by;
The credulous aspens reach and sigh
TO its careless touch as you and
Come Gathering down the west.
Pwist. Ala-an, Are you going to sleepz
Were here at the four mile tree!
And deeper the canyon gapes, and deep
The inching shade where the tall pines creep
To peer in the brook. whose windows keep
Their shivering doubles-see,
Yon hectic star through the night of pine
That broods on the Tuerto's comb.
Ahai And your ears perk up to line,
You know who waits there with eyes ashine-
Whose neck she will hing next after minei
guess so, Then out for home,
a shot Pe-yan-ngi And it burnt my ear!
Good cause for your shying so,
Apaches: Trapped They are front and rearl
And Kate alone, with the hellions near
My Kate-Alazan! Get out of here.
Whoopi Through themi Over them! Col
OF in whirlwind Of iron heels
That kindle the stony traili
Ay! Let them follow the hawk that wheels.
Or chase the bolt when the sky break peals,
The foam rains round and the canyon reels.
And-safei Do you hear her hail,

a Question Never Asked in Good society.

n question Never ASKED IN GOOD Society.
1t is a rule of good society that as soon as
you arrive you affect TO have always been
there. OF other ascents men boast; of So
cial success, rarely. Your millionaire, for
example-and millionairism is getting so
common as TO be almost vulgar-your mill
ionaire never tires of telling you how he
worked the multiplication table until cents
became dimes, and dimes well sown bios
somed presently into dollars, till hundreds
swelied 10 hundreds of thousands, and the
man who had been blithe youth but
twenty years before became the possessor
OF an uneasy tumor he calls n fortune
Once this narrative is begun, no matter
that you beat your breast with reluctance
to hear out the tedious tale, while loud bas-
soons perchance are calling you to wedding
feasts, pray hear the modern Wilmington
with patience.
The recital of this story is his main con-
ISOLATION for the boredom of complicated
possession in which his life IS inextricably
involved-his recoupment for the irksome
vigilance with which he must defend his
hoard against the incessant attacks of
cheats and beggars, subscription papers
and poor relations. But the man who has
won his way TO that Elusive sphere we call
society sends 10 swift oblivion all his proc
esses- In isociety the man asks another,
How did you get heres" or congratulates
him on moving among better people than
he did ten years ago. Theoretically soci-

from climbing, the newcomer affects to

Arena. Ward. Creed.

The following is the opinion of Artemas
Ward, an expert sdvertisher:
Let me state nv creed
Il belieue in newspaper advertising as
the natural, most effective, most prompt
and economical mode of reaching tie
great public. Especially il cities, human
and modern curiosity leads TO wide read
Ing of daily and weekly newspapers. The
government has aided the Publishers TO
such an extent that their mails are car
lied at one cent per pound and
that carries your advertisement
all the cheaper Modern invention
has worked harder to perfect the output
ting of the daily paper than to accom-
plish slmOst any other work of life. In
the home there is always scramble
among the household for the paper. The
kitchen gets it first. the energetic child

in other things) takes it away when he
arrives on the scene Of action. As soon
as he Is done the wife captures it. and in

Story of a Loving Cup.

A Bostonian who has been in London a
good deal, relates that not long since he
had the honor of dining with one of the
oldest of the companies in that city, when
he was shown on the loving cup, which
was passed at the conclusion OF the dinner
the date 1912 He had been told earlier in
the evening that the hall of the company
had been burned tothe ground in the great
fire of London, and that everything which
the company had had been consumed, so
that he remarked that OF course this cup
was reproduction of an old one.
''Oh, no, was the answer. this is the
original"
But how was this preserved in the great
fire:''
1t was then explained that the company
was so heavily assessed at the time of the
establishment of the commonwealth -
when, as everybody knows, levies were
made on most of the city companies-that
it had hard work to raise the necessary
funds. 1t managed to scrape along, how
ever, until the restoration, when fresh de-
mands were made by the government of
Charles II on the ground that the company
had contributed funds to the support of
Cromwell
The company had already mortgaged its
lands, and cow there was nothing left for
it but the pawning of its plate, which was
accordingly pledged TO the LON bards, who
carried it 10 France. 1t was owing to this
state of things that the plate escaped the
great fire, and although it was a long time
after that event before the company was in
position 10 redeem the silver, ultimately
the whole came back to the original own
ers IN London.-Boston Courier.

CLAUDE'S BROKEN LEG

A witness Who Knew That Captain Nc
Donald Sent Her Money.
The testimony of Morris Bendit was con-
tinued in the Mcdonald case before Judge
Cotfey yesterday. He said that on several
occasions he had seen Claude Lee cooking
in Cartain McDonald's room, and he had
also known the Captain to send her money.
Once he found Claude suffering from a
broken leg, and when he told Mcdonald of
it he said. I'm send the poor woman assist
anre and some money!" Five weeks before
McDonald's death he saw Claude in his
room, where she remained over an hour.
She was lame and on crutches. He identi
fed a portrait of the boy claimant as one he
had seen hanging in McD0nald's bed
