On TY bee Beach.
Far, far out, as the eye may see,
The waters play, and my spirit signs

Far, far out as the eye may see,
The waters play, and my spirit signs
To fathom the depth of the mystery
That low in the caves of the ocean lies.
But the thoughts that struggle within my
heart,
Can never the soul Of the dark sea reach.
And 1 hear the waves, as they mingle and
part
And break at my feet on the beach.
Soft and low, through the summer air,
Fall the liquid notes of a wordless song;
And deep and grand, from the breakers,
there
Are waited the chords of a symphony
strong.
The cry of the lost, methinks it to he,
That is stihed and stilled by the lash of the
spray.
And the demons ofhell, in their maniac glee,
Have set it to strains that the tempest
winds play,
But quiet and calm, and fearless I stand
And gaze ever out towards the farsailing
ships.
No scream of seabirds is borne to the land,
No word of Impotence Ger passes my lips;
For the stars are serene that look out
through the night
And a single light CLEANS DER the wild pas
stoned sea-
Where the angry-capped pillows, relentless
and white.
Come bounding along towards the shore and
to me.
The myst ries of earth, of ocean and sky,
The longings of life and its pain,
Are swept from my soul as the Cloudlets glide
by
When the storm has passed over in rain.
But sorrow there is in the lone universe.
And l listen again for the sad, longing sound
That creeps towards the land like death
laden hearse,
AS the waters fan soft on the ground.
Break at the foot of thy tempest-blown hills,
They CLEAN through the dusk as the I'M
defled snow,
And the children gaze out from their low cab
bagc hills
With eyes that are pure as thy Jewels below.
But what can they see of the wearisome strife
That fills thy broad bosom and soul?
The thoughts that run out with thy fast-eb-
hing life.
o, sea, are beyond and above thy control.
So wash at the foot of thy hills, and sing
No rocks rear aloft or Iife-breaking spar,
Tho breath of the wind is fevered and slow,
And the CLEAN from the Light" flashes
brilliant and far.
And all the wild thoughts that came to me
here
watt them away on thy outgoing tide,
AS the final chords burst from the symphony
clear,
And out on the breakers have fluttered and
died Il. Z. A. H"

departed. The next day another called
and proposed to make the farmer u pres.

cents o foot for 10 feet and charging him
extra for the necessary points. insisting
that the farmer sign d contract for the
balance. This he refused to do, and the
fellow left, Saturday two more men
drove up to his place, threw out rods
and tools and proceeded to put up the
rods. The farmer objected. but they
claimed to have an order to do the work
and laughed him to scorn. SNYDER got
his gun, and covering the man in the
wagon, who had drawn a revolver, he
ordered him to clear out or he would let
daylight through him. The fellow drove
off alta lively rate, leaving his pal at the

DIAMOND CUT DIAMOND,
Or How 0 Milwaukee Conductor Outwit,
ted an Enginser--A Mallard Duck
the Prize.

the Prize.
Lacrosse Republican, 10: Chief Train
Dispatcher II. r.. Wood, at Madison, 3.
d., was presented with a very fine and
fat mallard duck by d friend. Engineer
Sylvester ONGar OF this city went into
the dispatcher's Office and noticed the
dead bird. Visions OF tempting morsels
came and went, and came and stayed.
OtGar was unable to 90 past the bird
with his eyes shut, so he appropriated it.
The duck was placed in q box on the
engine and the lid closed down tighter
than o clam shell. Through some mys-
terious means, Passenger Conductor
Edward Bush OF Lacrosse gained in
formation as to what had been done
with the duck, and devised a plan to OBJ
tain it. At Prairie Junction he told
Brakeman Meyers to raid the box. The
engineer and fireman were at lunch, SO
the task seemed an easy one, but the
brakeman found the box locked, and SO
reported to the conductor. Myers was
then ordered to pry open the box, which
he did. ala s.
When the loss was discovered, O'Gar
informed Myers that he would give a
dollar for information as to the location
OF the appropriated property. Myers,
with an eye to business, informed Com
ductor Bush OF the golden opportunity,
and Bush readily granted permission
that'the birds locality should be given
away. The oonductor then cut of the
legs Of the duck, put up q iplump pack
age 90 arranged that the amputatsd feet
and legs OF the bird projected through
the paper. The bogus bird was then
placed in q rack IN the rear coach to
await developments. Developments
soon developed 40 the next stop En-
ginser OaGar entered the rear coach,
placed the package In front or him be-
meath his, blue blouse and marched
down TO his engine with his heart beat
ing like q window shutter in q March
wind. He placed the package in a box
and the lid went down with a noise like
q drummer boarding q sleeping a at
midnight The way he had been treat
ed had eaten into his soul and he or
dered the fireman to sit on the lid OF
that box and not move until jackson,
Mimi, was reached. He sat. When
the train pulled into jackson the en-
gineer carried his package to the hotel
and ordered it served for supper. The
conductor handed in his package also
and ordered it cooked. At supper there
was brought to the engineer and fireman
the pedal extrsmeties OF a duck, and to
the conductor and brakeman a fine fat
mallard.
The expression ON O'Gar's face was
like that of the peasant, in the old fairy
story, who dreamed his hands were full
Of gold and awoke to find them clutch
ing nothing but leaves. Bush felt like
the mar who won a capital prize in the
lottery.
AS for III. r. Wood, the disappearance
of that duck is still a dark mystery to
him that will not be cleared up until he
reads this tale.
