coLuMelA's EMBLEM.
slazon Coiumbia's emblem,

HaZon Columbias emblem,
The bounteous, golden corn
Eons ago of the great suns glow
And the Joy of the earth twas born.
From Superior's shore to Chill,
From the ocean of dawn 20 the west,
With its banners Of green and tasseled sheen,
1t sprang at the suns behest,
And by dew and shower from its natal hour
With honey and wine twas fed
Till the gods were fain to share with men
The perfect feast outspread,
For the rarest boon to the land they loved
Was the corn SO rich and fair,
Nor star nor breeze DER the farthest seas
Could find its like elsewhere.
In their hottest temples the meas
Offered the heaven sent maize
Grains wrought of gold in silver fold
For the suns enraptured gaze,
And its harvest came to the wandering tribes
Asthe gods own gift and seal.
And Montezuma's festal bread
Was made of its sacred meal.
Marrow their cherished fields, but ours
Are broad as the continents breast,
And lavish as leaves and flowers the sheavcs
Bring plenty and joy and rest.
For they strew the plains and crowd
wains
When the reapers meet at morn,
Till blithe cheers ring and west winds sing
A song for the garnered corn.
The rose may bloom for England,
The lily for France unfold,
Ireland may honor the shamrock,
Scotland her thistle bold,
But the shield of the great republic,
The glory of the west,
Shall bear q stalk Of the tasseled corn,
OF all our wealth the best.
The arbutus and the goldenrod
The heart of the north may cheer,
AID x1,ax nj larra1 for MARYLAND
It's royal clusters rear,
And jasmine and magnolia
The crest Of the south adorn,
But the wide republics emblem
Is'the bounteous golden eornl

WASHINGTON, June Loving to the
extra work necessitsted in the transfer
ring of the Office OF United States treas

the monthly statement could not be
compiled today, but will be issued to-
morrow. The total net gold in the
treasury is about $4,000, 900, but the
showing on the books is greater and the
amount stated in the debt statement
will be greater, as the exports of gold
made in the early part of the week have
not yet been taken up in cash; this
leaves the so-called gold reserve invaded
$8, 100000, and the indications point to
further shipments of gold on Friday and

Justice Brewer on the Bench With the
District Judges,
CHICAGO, June 1.-Justice Brewer of
the United States supreme court sat on
the bench this afternoon and listened to
the arguments in the worlds fair in
junction suit. Attorney Walker fled
an amended answer in behalf of the ex-
position, in which it was claimed that
while the exposition received after
March Sd, some of the souvenir coins
provided for in the act of August 5,
1892, it denies that it had full knowl-
edge OF the passing of the act of March
Sd, except such knowledge as might be
derived from the publication OF the act.
1t also says the defendant, not being in
formed of the construction that would
be put on the act by the secretary of the
treasury, in the latter part of March or
early April, communicated with him
requesting an Interpretation. The
answer was not received until
late in April when the secretary for
warded a copy of the opinion of the at
torney general. This advised the secre-
tary to withhold 1910, $780, part of the
appropriation of the act of August, 1892,
and in pursuance of it the defendant has
not received the sum.
Later in the day the attorneys for the
government submitted certified copy
of the minutes OF the meeting of the di-
rectors of March 22d, last, in which the
notification from the secretary of the
treasury was referred to committee.
1t was claimed that the acceptance of
the money by the exposition after it had
knowledge of the construction placed
upon the act, stopped it from setting up
the plea of violation of contract.
United States Solicitor Aldrich spoke
first for the government. Walker fol-
lowed for the exposition. Mr.. High was
closing for the government when the
court adjourned.

Episcopal convention of the diocese of
California refused to allow Bishop Mich
OILS an assistant bishop to help him in
his clerical duties. The matter had been
referred to committee of six members.
three of whom handed in report un-
favorable to the proposition, but recon-
mended the employment of stem
ographer and typewriter. Three mem
bers favored the appointment, as pro-
posed by the bishop. Nearly every
clergyman took part in the debate, and
considerable feeling was manifest. The
clerical vote was 81 to IA in favor of the
minority report, but the vote of the lay
men was IL to 10, with four delegates
divided, and as ths proposition lacked
majority of all, it failed.
