SONG AFTER sILENcR

Winter is weary timel
Not the ripple of rhyme
Stirs the icy shores along.
Quickening quietude with songi
Smiles are choked with snow.
Not metaphor will fowl
Envious frost doth hold in fee
Every lip in Castaly.
But let spring the bonds unbind
With the soft touch OF its wind,
What rapture What swept
What a swift, ecstatic leap
Mortal words but half express
All the rapture, all the stress.
Sweeter are the strains that come
If the lip awhile be dumb.

Walt Whitman. the good gray poet, q"
died at his home in Camden, N j., at 6:43
a few evenings ago. His en- was peaceful,
and he was conscious until the last. The
aged bard had been struggling with death
since December H. when he was taken down
with pneumonia. His death was looked for
daily His vitality was so great that he
rallied from the attack, although his
physicians said he was very weak and
liable to expire at any time. Five days be-
fore his death change was noticed in
WhitmanS condition. and for the last three
days be took no nourishment at all. About
o'clock in the afternoon his attendants
noticed he was growing worse, AMI DIR. Al
exander McAllster was sent for. He saw
the poet was dying and remained until the
end. The other persons by his bedside were
Mrs. Mary Davis, his housekeeper; War
rem FritzinSer, his nurse; and Thomas B.
Harmed and Horsca Traubel. two warm
friends D.. McAlltster asked Whitman il
he was in pain, and the dying poet answered:
mo" Wiitmans last words were a re-
quest to his nurse to shift him in bed. Then,
reaching for his handkerchief respira-
ton ceased, although his heart beat for ten
minutes afterward. Artist Aitken made
plaster cast of Nhitman's face. 1t was de-
cided that Whitman should be buried in
Harleigh Cemetery, Camden, where he sup
erintended the erection of his tomb several
years ago. He died poor man, his only
possessions being his house, library an copy
rights. Whitman disposed of these by will
three months ago, leaving his property TO
those who nursed him in his last illness.

There was ripple ofapplause, but it came
TOO early, for after the vote had been recapi-

The result of the vote was q reverse for the
opponents of the bill, but it was not reas-

instead of a majority of twenty or more they
had escaped defeat by tie. The effects was
to reverse the position of the two sides, snd
the advocates of the bill immediately began
to play for time and make filibustering mo-
tons. The opponents of the bill we're not
