SOME POEMS WORTH READxe


on q high slope OF those stupsndous mountains
Where the Winds sing through gray primsvsl trees.
where spring oiumbias and Nlssourt's fountains
That thunder down to widely sundsred seas;
The tumbied earth lies faiiow here a. ever
outsprsad before the nrst mans troubled gaze;
The cik and deer tracks a. they seek their cover
Alone marx trails amid the forests maze.
The rocks are piled up ss the glacier left them.
Or whore the earthquake scattered them around;
The trees are lying A. tue winds have teiled them.
And rot amid the leaves tina strew the ground.
Unnumbered generations OF the races
whose footsteps wandered through the Wild ravlne,
Like snovt have melted. barely leaving traces
To say shat here their peoples once had been.
In forest aisles ono hesrs a requiem signing.
Nmsy be for the spirits that are sped;
For ancient bones that In their shade are lying.
But cairn or monument, guards no: the dead.
The skies above for them may pour ~iibations
The while they mouldsr In deserted graves.
But little recks the soul In its m,RrA,ions:
Time mlugles all in Its succeeding wAvea
Red from the smoky eaAt the round moon Issues:
Wide Ger the night her beamy tresses now,
As tintinE earth With their translucent tissues.
Through which the stars with fading nrss do glow.
There dro way night deep In the gulches lying
Hears morn's son breathing Ia the woodland sing;
Then like = thought through airs expansss flying
bends down the tree tops with his tanning wing.
while rosy dawn ,s deepening In the heaven.
The heart stirs softly with . vague desire:
But sw eetet thought shall is emotions leaven,
Or ere the San ha:h topped the hil' with nre.

WHITcoMB RILEY comes nearer than any other

By the fact that. although his latest collection
OF poems. entitled Green Fields aad Running

which ia but two months old. tens OF thou

extraordinary success OF Mr.. Riley from
. commercial point OF view. Regarded
merely from this viewpoint. tho achievement
would prove that the author has known how
to rouse the great primary emotions and touch
the universal heart. This would have been
impossible had he confined himself to the
metrical studies in tho Hoosier dialect by
which he was first made known. His audi
snce In that event must needs have been seq

among people OF New England birth that
Lowell's Biglow Papers were fully compre-

DO no greater mistake than to assume that the
largest part or tho best part OF Mr.. Riley's
work has been done in dialect. II such an i'm

And shs AXES her stylish lips
In q trm. hard way. and lets them 20
In spasmodic little ships.
The Berkeley girl rsmove;h her specs,
And freszeth her face with a smile:
Then sticS IS olt her lips like an open book,
And eth her gum meanwhile.
The Alamo da girl says never n word.
And you'd think she WAS r0her tame
With her practical Views Of tho matter in hand;
But she gets there just the same.
The San Joss girl gets a grip on herself.
A. she carefully takes OF her nat:
And she grabs tho prize In o frightened way.
Like . terrier shaking u rat.
The Sacramento girl. so gentle and sweet.
lets her lips meet the coming kiss
With rnpturous warmth: and the youthful souls
Float away on a sea Of bliss.
The Pe.aiuma girl. n creature divine.
Whether wife or widow or miss,
Looks into your eyes with etarlit orbs.
And puts her whole soul In her kiss.
The Fresno girl vii. at frat refuse.

So. too. although our author appreciates the
exotic culture OF Longfellow. he is drawn to
him most strongly by their common powe OF
awakening the centler emotions. the aIec-
lions. and especially the love OF children. Mr..
Riley says OF Longfellow:
Awake. he loved their voices.
And wove then, into his rhyme;
And the music OF their laughter
, Was with him all the time.
Though he knew the tongues of %nasions,
And their meanings all were dear.
