He Barked at Death.

" nlCdRO lllDuncsl
Fully a hundred people waiting at
Thirty. ninth street for an Illinois Cen
trail suburban train one morning not
long ago witnessed big noble.looking
Newfoundland dog make losing fight
With fate on cake OF ice outin the lake.
The splendid creature had evidently
been on the treacherous crystal raft all
night, for he was literally coated with
ice and frost, while his hind quarters
we're almost totally useless, evidently
being frozen.
Every few moments he would utter n
howl or cry 30 piteously as to resemble
the death means OF a human being. Now
and then be would look toward the shore
from which he was separated by some
fifty feet Of ice-clogged water and slip
perry piling, as il pleading with all his
might for some one 10 lend him help
ing hand. Then, when no help came,
for it would have been madness in any
one to have tried to reach him, he would
look about him at the gulf Of angry
waters, draw himself little way up and
down the rocking death raft, and then
sink exhausted with HIS nose upon the
ice.
So deeply did the desperate plight OF
the noble fellow impress the spectators
that score OF women turned away TO
hide their tears, while several men for
got their business and made tour OF
various small boat houses in the vicinity
to see If some plan for rescuing the dog
could not be devised. But all to nc
avail.
Suddenly, far outin the lake, mighty
wave. crested with huge, jagged blocks
of ice, was seen rolling in toward the
shore. There was something indescrib
ably awful in the din and roar made by
the grinding and crashing Of that in
coming battle line Of ice.
| At the sound OF the tumult the New,
foundland turned, and, facing the on
coming mountain, stood for moment
as il struck motionless with fear, Then
as q proud, fearless soldier of fortune
who, when brought to bay by overpower
ing forces, turns derisive, the great fel
low began barking like a fog trumpe
square in the face OF his foe.
As he felt the forerunner of the mao
! commotion jar his foothold the doomed
brute seemed to bark the louder, more
derisively.
A great cheer went mp from the mel
and women now gathered at the scene
The dog heard it and turned his fac,
for moment upon the source, as though
saving:
"Hushl Watch how a dog of New
foundland can die!"
Scarce had he turned upon his fo'
again and uttered another bark Of mock
cry when that wickedly plunging battl
line of ice blocks, streaked with tn
foam of their long race, bore down an,
ground the noble brute, as milestone
grind a grain of wheat.
A dog had shown men how to die.

accord.

I would not have my whole year May,
But yet for our dead passions sake,
Kiss me once more and strive to make
Our last kiss the supremest one;
For love IL done.
Our love is donel
And still my eyes with tears are wet,
Our souls are stirred with vague regret
We gaze farewell, yet cannot speak,
And firm resolve grows strangely weak,
Though hearts are twain that once were one
Since love Is done.
But love is done!
know IT, vow It, and that kiss
Must set a finis to our bliss.
Yet when felt thy mouth meet mine
My life again seemed half divine,
Our very hearts together run!
Can love be done'
Can love be donep
who cares II this be mad or wise'
Trust not my words, but read my eyes,
Thy kiss babe sleeping love awake:
Then take me to thy heart; ahl take
The life with which thine own is one,

policy, and each of the contracting parties
agrees to aid the others through
diplomacy and by material assistance
on land and water; to keep armies
on war footing during the
period of cordial understanding. The
document sets forth at length how the
troops of each OF the parties to the alli-
ancc shall be mobilized in the event of the
war of any one of the countries with Rus
sia or France. In case Germany and
Austria get into trouble with Ru ssia they
shall make concerted attack on that coun-
try, and if France attempts to take hand
Italy shall march against her. In case of
conflict of Germany and France, Italy
shall do the same, and Austria shall keep
an eye on Russia. In case of conflict of
Italy and France, Germany shall act
jointly with Italy while Austria holds
down the Russians. In conclusion the
contracting bodies promise and swear on
honor to maintain the status quo and the
peace of Europe.
