No Trace of Patrick Burns.

All yesterday afternoon crew were at
work dragging the dock at Central
wharf in the hopes of finding the body
of Patrick Burns, who has been missing
from his Pleasant street home since
Tuesday morning, and who was last seen
on the wharf with Patrick Quincannon,
who came SO near getting killed by walk
ing off the wharf. It is thought that
Burns too walked off the wharf and was
drowned. But search failed to find his
body, which may have drifted out into
the harbor with the tide.

Day Unto Day.

Last evening at High street church
Miss Ruth G. Long sang to Frank L..
Rankin's organ accompaniment, Mrs.
Clara Marcelle Greene's sonnet 9Day
Unto Day. arranged and set to music
by Mr.. Rankin. These are the words of
the sonnet, which have never been print
ed:
Day unto day uttereth speech;
Night unto night
Showeth new knowledge; the golden
Reach OF dawns, succeeding each unto each,
Brings gracious light
Ave night unto night new knowledge SHOWS +;
At set of sun
Man lies in wonderful repoSe
Heart still and labor done.
Miss Longs rich, deep contralto voice
has never been better suited by any must
cal composition than by this. Mr.. Rankin
has thoroughly felt the spirit of the pc
EN- in setting it to music. There is a dig
nifty, majesty we may say, in the music
that fits the poem perfectly, and subtle
pathos breathes throughout that i'm
presses one remarkably. Part of the
music is written in recitative which is
really noble in character, and the line
sAye, night unto night is pervaded
with a joyous spirit that changes with
the last two lines to solemnity that is
intensely dramatic. During the render
ing of the meditation, for such it may
unsteady be called, there was breath
less stiffness in the large congregation.
