lost Innocence. The following poem
was written by the late Father NJ. 5. Burk'
of st. Nary's Church, Annapolis;
Bright days of my childhood oh como bacl
agaiui
Return with your innocent pleasure
Relieve nv sad soul that now fingers in pain
To weep DER the loss of her treasure.
A treasure so costly that no gems Of earth,
No eilver nor gold can obtain it.
Too late discovered its beauty and worth
It's gone-but hope to regain it.
The soul Of an innocent rhild-oh how fairl
A lily resplendent in whitenes'.
The spirit of purity fourishes there
And shines in It's heavenly brightness
Sweet innoceneel nor weep over thy loss,
I've wandered afar in SINS Wildwood;
But now will kneel at the foot OF the cross
And there seek, in sorrow, my childhood.

WORLDS FAIR APPROPRIATION
President Dulaney, of the Board of
Commissioners, wrote to Auditor
Norman Wednesday that the Attor-
ney General had rendered an opinion
to the effect that the act appropriate
ing the 500, 900 was valid, notwith-
standing the Governor had vetoed
the Revenue Bill which had been
passed in exactly the same manner
as the Worlds Fair Bill, and that he
would inclose draft for $25, 200
which he would request the Auditor
to honor at once. The Auditor re-
piled by saying that he refused 10
draw his warrant on the ground that
the Attorney General had instructed
him in August last hot to pay out a
cent of the appropriation until the
question of the validity of the act
which the Governor himself had
raised, be determined by the courts.
The Auditor holds that whatever
opinions the Governor or Attorney
General or anyone else may render
on the subject, his bond will have to
bear the responsibility of an unlaw-
full payment of the money and it is
for that reason he refuses to honor
the draft until the matter has been
tested in the courts.
