No king above him in the empty skies,
NO Lord Of all earth's fallen sovereignties
To mock the mighty tediam Of his throne.
To him the secrets OF the stars were known
Who was above all sages great and wise;
Yet as the years dragged on without sur.
prise
He wearied of this world that was his own.
Earth Is too narrow for the dreaming soul,
Aye, tho she hold it all from pole to pole
Her least desire is wider than the whole.
Therefore, who knows the limit Of his power
Disdains the trivial baubles OF an hour,
AID plunges where the seas Of silence roll
Life is dream" yishtaspa said. wherein
The dreamer lives alone, the rest is vain.
My dream shall end, for l would sleep

He went his palace terraces to win,
Farewell" he said, glitter and glare and
din;
FAREWELL cast me to the quiet plain
But, as he would have leapt, voice spoke
plain,
Mortal thy Master saith, thou shall not sin"
Lo, at his side, unguessed, Zoroaster trod.

Miss JoliiDert awoke one morning to fina
a great peace at her heart, and that her
convictions had forever fallen asleep.
Strangely enough, it was the morning Of
her wedding day.
At Miss Jollibert's wedding there was
not one person who had the heart or
audacity to say she was anything bat 4
very handsome woman. and that the
bishop and she were a very lucky pair
Most of them added particularly the
bishop; but If some Of them did say in

TAKE CHARGE TO-DAY.
The N. &c w. Assumes Control
of the r. &c S.

The Norfolk and Western will assume
control of tho Roanoke and Southern
today.
d. S. Barger, the ewsupcrintendent,
and Superintendent Hippey, of the
Western division of the Norfolk and
Western, will take trip over the road
today. After they return suits BILE
recommendations will be made regard
ing the eQuipping and operation of the
new line, which will be called the Win
ston and Salem division of the Norfolk
and Western.
1t was no secret yesterday that the
board of directors of the Roanoke and
Southern was loath to lease the road.
The members of the board desired to
hold the road as an irducement to the
Baltimore and Ohio to como to Roa-
noke, but when they found that they
were forced to sell they made the most
Of it.
John Gill sold us out" said per-
manent director yesterday. "He had
the controlling interest in the road on
account OF furnishing funds to the
Virginia and North Carolina Construc-
ton Company"
The only regret expressed yesterday
was that by the lease the Baltimore
and Ohio will be kept OUT of the city a
much longer time.
Ono of the Norfolk and Western Off
Gals said that tho Baltimore and Ohio
had ample opportunities TO get tho
Roanoke and Southern, and if those
people expected to do anything, they
certainly should have had enterprise
enough to seize the chance when it was
put in their hands.

of this kind the city has to bear the ex-

OF the poor, will lay the matter before
the Council, req ues ting that some other
provision be made, as the expense is en-
tirely too great on the city
The number of persons buried at the
expense of the city in the last four
monthsis eight. The cost of burial
will average SIS each, and the coroner's

pense of $50 per month to bury paupers.
In many cases the subjects are in

ton. No effort is made to bury them,
and they would be left for days at a
time unless the city took charge of the
body.
There is likely to be slight SQUAD
BILE over the matter. Coroner Gray has
sent in his bills for certain work, and
the committee on health is now con.
sideTing them.
Section 1898, code of Virginia. says
that thu coroner shall receive no fees
except in case Of death by violence, and
when there is evidence of foul play.
1t has been stated that several cases,
where the coroner has viewed the re-
mains of persons dying from natural
causes will be reported adversely.
