Rest or Service

Is there for me a golden calm,
somewhere beyond the sunset sea-
4 radiance of the smile of God.
A splerldor OF tranquility?
Da,r God, the thought is very sweet, I'll
And ] have come Il weary way;
NV heart Is sad and tired and Old;
want that perfect peace today.
And vet-there stands without my gate
4 beggar, cringing and forlorn,
The likeness of the Christ divine
Crushed out by earths contempt and
scorn.
Within the crowded city's slums
Dear childish faces, worn ard thin,
Are shadowed By the heavy gloom
Of poverty and pain and sin
Across my path there flashed today
A haunted face, deep-iiled with care,
Upon the gnastIy painted cheek
The angushed look that lost souls wear.
O baggar. abiect and despised!
. child. VINO <nowst not cool green 500:
0 sister, wearing bitter shame,
Down-fallen. yet beloved OF Coo!
Do ] dare ask for golden calm,
While you Know only care and pain?
Ere I could clasp that selfish peace
The heart within me must be slain:
This heart that loves in spite Of wrong;
That sees the Christ fair-slining in
The painted woman Of the street,
Through all the yelling clouds of sin.
Better q restless, weary day,
If full Of loves swee, work divine,
Than long bright hours apart from those
Who sleeping moan; VINO wake to pine!

water Did Great Damage to Property


seven Lives s4ost.
st. Paul, Mimi, May 16.-Half million
dollars will scarcelv cover the damage
done by the great storm OF yesterday ana
last night in Minnesota and Wisconsin,
The downpour of rain YVES the greatest ever
known in this section of the northwest and
in many places was as destructive as
waterspout. The damage is greatest along
the st. Crox, EuSaile and Chippewa
rivers where the rise in the waters was
so rapid that bridges could not resist it
and dozens Of them were washed away.
In several places also dams were washed
out and the swift flowing food did large
damage to business property.
The death list SO far includes seven, one
being killed by lightning near Anika, Mimi,
and another near New Richmond, Wis.
A woman and two children were drowned
in the Eugalle river near Spring Valley,
Wis, and two men were drowned near
Mndon, Mimi.
Railway traffic was in a state of paralysis
all day because of the bridges and wash

A MYSTERIOUS Suicide.
Iic Sought !, Secluded Spot and Took
Poison.

Bridgeport, Ala, May H.-(Special)-
While some parties were hunting in Doran's
cave on Cumberland mountain last Satur-
day they saw a raised umbrella over an
apparently sleeping man in Il comfortable
nook. They called to the man, but as he
did not respond they approached and found
that he was dead and had been for about q
week The body was faultiessly attred.
A gold watch was found in his vest pocket
and money found in his trouser
pockets. The man was about sixty years
of age. There were no marks of violence
upon his body. his death and his identity
are mysterious The body was removed to
q village near by where it was viewed by
all the neighborhood and nobody had ever
seen the man in life, Ii is believed that he,
with suicidal intent quietly sought out the
sequestered spot, took the poison, raised
the umbrella to hide him from the sun as
he fell into his last long sleep.

LATEST FIRE news.
Few More Bodies Found at Hinckley
and the Number Of Dead
There Is 22L. !,
SEARCHING IN THE WOODS.
There Are No Startling Developments
Relief Work Goes On Rapidly,
But Smoothly.

PINE CRY, Mimi, Sept. 8.-The
death roll at Hinckley is growing, but
slowly. Seven bodies were found early
Wednesday morning.
Searching parties are ont In OH direc.
tions, but their orders are to bury the
dead where they lie.
The seven bodies brought I'm were
taken to the graveyard, and with the
body OF Axel Hanson. county commits
sioner, which had been brought In ON
Sunday, brings the total number in
Hinckley up to 22l, and i'm the vicinity
Of Hinckley to upwards Of $50.
As yet it has been impossible to ap-
proach the mill pond, the heap OF saw
dust and edgings which form its banks
still sending up clouds Of binding
smoke, rendering il impossible for a
man to get near the water.
ain Handle the Mili-Pond Carefully.
It has been decided to draw on the
water, allowing it TO escape gradually,
so that the logs may settle where they
are, instead of being crowded down into
the lower end of the pond, and thereby
rendering it impossible to recover any
bodies that might be beneath them.
Il is not supposed, however, that there
are many bodies in the pond. Mr.. L.
III. Glow, who was foreman OF the
Brennan company, in charge OF the
yard, told the Associated Press core
spondent that he was the last man out
Of the yard and made his way 10 the
| gravel pit. he says no one could have
gone through the yard after be left,
and he noticed no one going that way.
Others, however, r quite positive
that they saw persons making their
way toward the pond.
AT Pine City, the work Of relief il
running smoothly. A system Of requi'
sitions for clothing and supplies, has
been instituted and all who are In need
are getting assistance.
Relief Work Goes ON smootaly.
The work Is running too smoothly e
present any features of interest other
than it's W method. No reports Have
been received here from the outlying
points in the track Of the fire.
A reliable summary of the known
victims Of the fire would show these
figures:
Buried at Hinckley and vicinity Poi.
AT Sandstone, So.
Pekegama, %.
At Miller, IL.
Probably 30 dead bodies win yet b
found In the woods, and elsewhere.
So il is safe to say that the total dead
win number 400.
