AFTER LONG ABSENCE.

Here in this room where first we met,
And where we said farewell with tears;
Here, where you swore, Though you for.
get,
My love shall deeper grow with years!"
Here, where the pictures on the wall,
The very rugs upon the floor,
The smallest objects you recall
am awaiting you once more.
The books that we together read
From off their shelves they beckon me.
All here seems living-what is dead?
What is the ghost fear to see?
Unchanged am /; did you despise
My love as small?-it fills my hearti
You come, a stranger from your eyes
Looks out, and meeting first we part!
Lila Cabot Perry in Cosmopolitan.

A PARAMOUNT QUESTION.
Citizens Arouse-Riverside Park VS.
Riverside Cemetery.

There are many strong reasons why IL g
city council should reconSic er and with
hold its consent 10 the establishment Of
Riverside cemetery:
FirSt-Ths design will destroy the only
possible driving park of suitable size for
the future great city of San Antonio.
Here can be had about 500 acres of a solid
body of timb Der land of undulating surface,
with river and lakes, already one of the
most beautiful natural parks In the world.
10 will be simply suicidal for San Antonio
tn allow it TO be divorced from the grand
purpose for which nature made it.
Many thought the Breckenridge place
cheap at million, yet no million can
make it the equal of Riverside park.
There is not lilo enough Of timbe ed land
for driving park In truth for this lat
ter Riverside park is the only place San
Antonio has. Shall she sacrifice this?
Second-The breezes Will blow over the
cemetery up PreSa and Garden streets
into the very heart of the city and thuf
constituted an induring annoyance to
thousands of citizens.
Third-A critical examination of the
broken surface of Riverside park Will
demonstrate that, for cemetery. it is
little better fitted than the present city
cemetery. In fact Riverside park is but a
succession OF grand ridges, through which
percolates water, which causes those hne
pecan trees to grow.
Fourth-The resulting contamination OF
the river should by all means be avoide d.
just below ''The Park" should begin the
future manufacturing population OF San
Antonio.
Per Contradict the city acquire now
while lands are low. 500 or 1000 acres
where the prevailing breezeS passing over
the cemetery will be waited away from
the city; where the deep allcviai soil OF
the plain around us, is founded upon clay
and no contamination can possibly resu
10 our water courses. Now let the city
Law out its own cemetery and reap the
immense profit to flow from it, and at the
same time retain control OF its "city OF
the dead"
Hurrah for Riverside Park, but ceme-
terry there never. The CITY FRIEND.
