/ WONDER WHY.

Iwonder why hearts change SC carelessly,
Forgetful of the fires they have set
Aglc.w in other hearts,
Forgetful of the trembling lips once wet
With dews of kisses.
wonder why it comes-forgetfulnes
To steal away the loyalty and truth
That once were gloritied,
Leaving alone formless shadow-ruth
For those forgotten.
wonder why we cannot earnestly
Command our loves as we command ON
lives
And prove it sweetly true
That love remains to him who truly strives
To grow in constancy.
wonder why we never know ourselves
Can never look into ourselves and see
The hidden springs that wait
A magic touch to burst forth nightly
And 'whelm our startled souls.
! wonder why once earnest VOWS enshrined
Within the inner temples of our love
Grow faint with lapsing time,
Like echoes from some whispering Volcs
above
The faroff floating clouds
wonder why.

The Washington Camp Slept
in Damp Tents.
FINE DISCIPLINE IN CAMP
Several Tents Were Dismantled by the
Sheets of Rain Which Beat
Around Them.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. % An
unwelcome hnusewarnling was given
the knights of Pythias encamped III
the white city of tents around Wash
ington monument this afternoon. IL
came in the form of a thunder shower,
which swept over the city almost with
out warning, and then settled into a
steady rain until sunset. Several tents
were dismantled by the sheets of rain
which beat around them, and the
lightning was unpleasantly sharp. All
the discomforts incidental 10 the storm
were accepted In q hilarious mood by
the knights, however, and they made
fun under canvas as we'll as outside
after the first drenching rain had
passed over.
There were thousands of cheers on
the arrival of new companies, while
the bands in camp kept giving a con-
tinual concert, endeavoring to outplay
their rivals. Special trains were pull
ing into the depot, aud Knights brill
liantly uniformed in scarlet, blue and
white, went marching up Pennsyl-
vania avenue through the rain, many
displaying handsome banners. Par
ticularlv striking was the Florida
phalanX, presenting cleaning array
of white duck trousers and carrying at
the head of the liue the most famous
product of their state, astuffed alligator
rampant.
In the face of the weather hundreds
of residents flocked to inspect the camp
during the day, trooping through the
avenue of tents and crowding about
the goats and other paraphernalia,
animate and inanimate, brought by
the westerners arrived today. Fine
discipline was had in camp, something
like martial regulations being enforced.
Three thousand men sleep on light cots
under canvass tonight, while uniforms
are The rule rather than the exception
on streets. Since the encampment is
not officially begun until tomorrow,
divisions are not required to report
their presence until then, so no list oil
the organizations on the ground is vel
to be had.
Among the prominent divisions
which arrived today were those from
New York, Cincinnati, Indianapolis
st. Joseph, Chicago and Colorado.
The president has promised to review
the grand parade Tuesday. A review,
| ing stand will be erected for him in
! front of the executive mansion. Gen.
eral Carnahan and stuff will review
the parade on horseback at the head
of Pennsylvania avenue near the treas
ury. A stand is being erected near tn
treasury in which seats will be re
served for spectators and governmen
officials, senators, representatives and
