OUR BOYS and GIRLS.
"Good. by, Old Year, Goodbye"

" Good by. old year, good.by,"
We've had good times together;
You gave us many a bright blue sky,
And sometimes stormy weather.
But we've had lots of fun-
We've skated, Hshed, and boated;
And now, Just as the year is done,
In school we've been promoted.
Good.by old year-good.by,
Old Eighteen ninety.twol
Though Ninety.thiee is looming high,
You AXE our love with you.
Old year, be brave and proud;
With banners floating DER you,
You Join the shadowy crowd
OF years that went before You.
Good-by, old year, gOod.by;
with " fms " to your stor'
The stars shine out on high
To light your way with glory.

Bishop Brooks is Dead /.

BosToN, Jan. 23.-Phillip Brooks,
bishop of the Episcopal diocese of Mas
sachusetts, died at his residence in this
city at $50 a. m. The cause was heart
failure, superinduced by acute diph-
theriq, and the illness was OF only four
days duration. Peacefully, conscious
to the last, and IN the arms of his
brother, the most famous preacher in
he Episcopal church in America ended
life of singular goodness. The great
characteristics of the man were never
more wildly illustrated than during his
last illness.
Bishop Brooks was noted for his elo-
quence and long enjoyed the distinction
of being the most eloquent preacher in
America He had a remarkable COM
mand of language, an engaging man
ner and possessed rare traits of rhetoric,
which he used to the best advantage.
