The Shipmnn,s Tale,

Listen, my master. speak nsught bus, truth
From dawn to dawn they drifted on ana on,
Not knowing whittier or to What dark end
Now the north froze them, now the hot south
scorched.
Some called to God and found great comfort so,
Some gnashed their teeth with curses, and some
laughed
An empty laughter seeing that they lived,
So sweet was breath tetween their foolish lips
Day after day the same relentless sun,
Night after night the same Implying stars
At intervals fierce lightnings tore the clouds,
Showing vast, hollow spaces, and the sleet
Kissed, and the torrents OF the sky were loosed
From time to time a hand relaxed its grip,
And some pale wretch slid Gown into the dark
With stiled moan, and transient horror seized
The rest who waited, knowing what must be.
At every turn strange shapes reached up and
clutched
The whirling wreck, held on awhile, and then
Slipt back again into that blackness whence
they came.
Ab, hapless folk, 70 be so tost and torn,
So racked by hunger, fever, fire and wave,
Aud swept at last into the nameless void
Frail girls, strong men and mothers with their
babes!

Carroll D. Wright, national commits.
sioner of labor, has something interesting 6
to ssy on the subject of industrial pro-
gress and the relation of machinery to the
unemployed. He does not believe that the
magnificent inventions and the multipli
cation of labor-eavipg machines during the
present century has lessened the demand
for labor. bot rather increased 1t, in sup
port of which idea he calls attention to the
feet that England has the greatest amount
of machinery and the greatest ratio of
people employed, In respect to population,
while Russia has the least machinery and
the greatest ratio of unemployed. To snow

bell skirt of last year. From that point 1t
undulates out, taking curve inward be-
low the knees and just as 1t reaches the
floor line turning out in a flare, like the
lip of bell, exaggerated. The lines are
all 80 artificial They are neither to be

The MORNING News will begin the pub
location of a new story on Sunday, May
IA, by Mrs. Baseley, entitled "Her
Fathers Idol" It is a sensational do
nestle novel of the most enthralling char
acter. Mrs. Baseley has the faculty of at
once interesting her readers in her char
acters. They are life-like, human-often
weak and passionate-but yet they secure
sympathy and arouse lively feelings in the
breasts of those who are following their
fortunes.
The interest of the reader in the fore
going story will be chiefly concentrated
upon Nelly Henstock, the heroine, and a
consummate villain, named Mark Boyd,
The young lady is is years of age, and is
the only daughter of DIR. Henstock. The
villain of the piece is an idle dandified
scamp, the son of a rival practitioner.
From first to last the proceedings of Mark
Boyd are OF an extraordinary char
acter. He shoots a rival from a spirit
of jealousy. He misleads the heroine,
appropriates her correspondence; she is
watched by a spa nihilist, who secretly
cherishes a scheme of revenge against
Marx. Nelly, cast OF by her father, as
she wrongfully supposes, and threatened
by Mark, consents to marriage. Suisse
quently she discovers the imposture that
has been carried on, and after a series of
exciting adventures, aided by other per-
sons who have been deceived by Mark
Boyd she is restored to home and friends
The story is of a decidedly moral tone
scribed hold the perpetrators up to
universal execration. One remarkably
powerful chapter tells of the heroine's
narrow escape from death. Whilst ill she
is given sleeping draught Her keepers
thrust her into coffin, while still alive,
and attempt to bury her in a neighboring
shrubbery. This story will also appear
in the WEEKLY NEWS.

From the Nebraska State Journal
If life everlasting is gained through belief,
And works are but ashes and dross,
Then what will become of the millions of
Who never have heard of the cross?
Christ set an example, and those who obey
In deeds, though their lips may be mute,
Shall dwell in a land of perpetual day
And shall play the triangle and flute.
Alas, for the poor, cringing worm of the dust,
Who, fearing the tormepts of hell
Gets after salvation with wordy pretenSe,
Professions that sound very we'll.
But clings to the sordid desires of the flesh,
And works for himself like slave,
That man has no promise of life over there,
His journey ends short at the grave.
THE wages of sin" says the book of the law,
Are DEATH" which means nothing but
death;
The soul is destroyed by the canker of sin,
And yields up its job with its breath.
But he who does right for the sake of the
right,
And seeks not for plumber or pelf.
That man will survive while eternity rolls.
And be strictly in it himself.
