But yet for our dead passions sake,

Our last kiss the .upremest one,
For love is done.

And still my eyes with tears arc wet.
Our souls are stirred with vague regret.
We gaze farewell. yet cannot speak.
And firm resolve grows strangely weak.
ThougI hearts are twain that once were
one,
Since love IS done.
But love is done.
/ know it, vow il. and that kiss
Must set FMS % our bliss.
Yet when felt thy mouth meet mine
NJ life again seemed half divine,
Our very hearts together run!
Can love be- done.
Can love be dOncg
Who cares IL this be mad or wiser
Trust not my words. but read my eyes.
Thy kiss babe sleeping love awake
Then take me 70 thy heart; all. take
The life that with thine own Is one.
Love Is not done!

PAwTUCKET, X. l., Dec 6.-The bold
burglary committed Sunday evening at
the Crossley mansion on Pawtucket ave-
due continues to be the theme of con-
versation in this city, aud n singular
feature of the talk the matter
has caused is that people are almost
unanimous In connecting the coachman
George CLAYTON, in some way or other
with the matter. Indeed, the authori-
ties themselves have practically given
up following out any other theory than
this. and while they have not placed
Clayton under arrest, they have ac-
quaiuted him with the fact that the more

isfed they were that he knew more about
the affair than he had told

been an easy matter for him to % up TO

then stumble down the winding stairs
without hurting himself. and thus

had gone for help he could have things

either have aided an accomplice or gone
