Last night some yellow letters fell
Prom out a scrip found by chancs;
Among them was the silent ghost
The spirit OF my tirst romance.
And In a faint blue envelope
A wtthered rose long lost to dew,
Bore witness to the dAshing days
when love was large and wits we're NV.
Yet standing there all worn aud gray,
Tho tear drops guiyered in my syes
To think OF youths unsha AIKEN trout
The forehead lifted to the skteA
How rough hill my eager feet
Flung backward when upon Its crest
/ saw the 1utter OF the lace
The wind awoke on Helens breastl
How thornless wero the roses then.
When fresh Young eyes and lips were kind.
When CUPID in our porches proved
How true the tale that love 10 bltndl
But Red. and White and poverty.
Would only mate while shons the hAyi
Then came a bag OF Golden Crowns,
And jingled Red and White away.
Grown old aud niggard OF romanos
I Vince not much at aught asksw.
And often ask my fnvortte cat
what else had Red.and.WhIte to def
And here'sthe bud that rose and sank.

Jack Dsw.ou'- Pilgrimage.

FSor hs G,ru,dntorn telegraph.
Jack Dawson liveda way down in Maine.
HOed corn. raised chickens, aud reaped grain.
But said that Maine was not designed
For men of mastery and mind;
And said a man OF any soul
Shouldn't veRetate in such hole;
-vermonts the state. says he, :, ! want
And I'll raise butter in Vermont"
At butter then Jack took turn,
But found 1t too hard work TO churn.
" The air mere In Vermont saysh he,
lis much too rarered for me:
No man OF enterprise and dash.
Who bankers after fame ana cash,
VIII browse around the barren peak
Aud grind his nose down TO beak:
These hills may soak IN snow and slest;
III 20 to Kansas anu raise wheat"
Jack found the wesvils in his wheat
Would neither parley nor retreat;
Then said Kansas was place
Insulted to the human race
But twas most delightful state
From which to skip and emigrAtei
To California be escapes,
And settles down TO raising grapes.
When his yearly crop was lost
BY hard, premature frost,
Jack said: :. This country Is failure
] ship next Monday for Australia"
lie found Australia was TOO new.
Its risks too great. its gains too few:
In this back entry OF the world.
And rms time PrOpG,i,1, , to GO ,nox,
Wherein a soul OF enterprise
Can heap up piles OF gold and gain.
Ana ma a Cnance TO use DrAu.
And reach great Atiiuence and renown."
And so Jack sailed to London town
Jack landed confident and proud.
But soon was missing IN the crowd;
lie mingled in the general swim
And Gladstone never called on him.
Ana still the Queen sat quite alone.
Nor asked him up to share her throne
lie mingled in tho million Tout
And fate refused to sift him out.
JACK vanished: but the rolling world
Upon its axis still was whIred;
The symptoms of the universe
We're not much better nor much worse;
And when Jack newt appeared again
Twas SIX months later down In Maine
And Jack he settled down in Maine.
HOed corn raised chickens, and reAped krAiny
He'd travelled around the world TO hnd
place lust suited to his mind.

The Silver party victory in Nov

That Nevada is to remain at the
head Of the silver column and will
continue the free coinage fight;
That the finances. Of the state will

Ca the other hand, a Republican

That tEe people Of the state still

That the leadership OF John Sher-
