The NOfCca.

Down In the night I hear them:
The voices, unknown, unguessed,
That whisper and lisp. aud murmur,
And will not let me rest.
Voices that seem to question,
In unknown words. of me,
Vi fabulous ventures, and hopes and dreams
or this and the world to be.
Voices Of mirth and music
As In sumptuous homes; and sounds
OF mourning, as OF gathering friends
In country burial grounds.
Cadence Of maiden voices.
Their lovers blent with these;
And OF little children singing,
As under orchard trees.
And often, up from the chaos
OF my deepest dreams, hear
Sounds OF their phantom laughter,
Filling the atmosphere.
They call to me from the darkness,
They cry to me from the gloom,
Till start sometimes from my pillow
And peer through the haunted room,
When the face of the moon at the window
Wears a pallor like my own;
And seems to be listening with me
To the low, mysterious tone,
The low. mysterious clamor
or voices, that seem to be
Striving In vain to whisper
OF secret things to me:
OF something dread to be warned Of;
or rapture yet withheld;
Or hints of the marvellous beauty
OF songs unsyllabled.
But ever and ever the meaning
Falters and fails and dies,
And only the silence quayers
With the sorrow of my signs.
And answer: voices, ye may not
Make to understand,
TIL my own voice, mingling with you,
Laughs In the Shadowland

WEIRD MOUNTAIN SCENERY.
Strange Arizona Regions Which Are
Feared and Stunned by Indians.

Feared and Stunned by Indians.
While all travellers are aware of the fact
that there are mountains Of stupendous
magnitude In the west, their grandest con-
ception. even though they may have spent
season after season in the summer resorts,
will not approach the reality as 1t is found
in the bypaths away from. the haunts of
man, says the ST. Louis Republic. There
ere ranges so mysterious and weird in con-
formation and general contour as to be
perpetual taboo against Indians, and
where a white man could peacefully live
out all his days, even were he surrounded
by the most warlike of the tribes. Take the
Mogolones range. away southwest in Arr
iona. 1t Is a drear and dead territory, so
far away from ordinary lines Of travel that
It's name is rarely heard, even in that coun-
try. That range of mountains is the home
OF tribes Of men who have never to this day
set eyes on a white man. 1t is possessed
OF mysteriousness that charms the white
man who wanders that far away, yet II
seems bewitched, and the lone traveller
through its valleys sees strange sights and
hears strange sounds. as IL he were in the
presence of disembodied spirits of those who
had the temertty to explore this region be-
fore him.
The Mount Of the Holy Cross has been
immortalized by Moran, and thousands Of
humid eyes have gazed upon that Christian
symbol erected In the clouds by Gods own
hand. There are other and grander mounts
OF the holy cross, even more perfect than
that frequently pictured. They lie deep
in the heart of the rocky range with other
wondrous possibilities that await the future
explorer OF that vast unknown region Of
northern Idaho and Wyoming. There are
to be found strange rock formations similar
to those across the water In f1ngairs
causeway, which are both duplicated
thousandfoh in the majestic basaltic for
nations Of Idaho.

h finance committee met in the city

realizing save by a temporary loan The

$4,000. to be borrowed by the city as
needed.

One Hundred Mile. an Hour.

One hundred Miles nm Hour.
Notwithstanding the fact that George B.
Roberts. president of the Pennsylvania
lines, is quoted as saying that trains on that
road would not run one hundred miles an
hour until after he was gone,
it begins to look as if, un-
less he soon departed. such a fact
would be accomplished. A mechanical en-
gineer, who has been giving for two years
past much attention to the progress rail-
way companies are making in the way of
improved roadbed and equipment, especial
~ the mechanical department of the Penn
s~ylyania, looking to increased speed and
power or locomotives, says: Some great
strides have been made in that direction;
some giant locomotives have been turned
out In the last few months at the Altoona
and the Juniata shops, there being con-
siderable rivalry between the two shops,
although owned and operated by the Penn
s~ylvania, and some of these engines have
made a running record that the Pennsyl-
vanfa people are not anxious should become
known or President Roberts should be at
efneer said from what he knew of the mat
ter he was satisfied that within eighteen
months the train OF the Pennsylvania
would be running between Jersey City and
Philadelphia one hundred miles an hour.
he added that not only is the Pennsylvania
expanding large sums OF money putting
down a heavier rail than was ever laid
before and building its equipment much
more thoroughly than ever before, but also
getting its tracks above or below street
crossings or towns and cities between the
points named. which greatly simplifies the
miles an hour. He stated that one of the
new type Of engines for fast service recent
ly hauled six cars from Philadelphia to
utes, and without seemingly having reached
it's speed capacity.

~Them-Nature of the Kicks.
Every mail brings to the office of the
Board of Health a half dozen complaints
about the failure TO collect garbage. James
E. Lilly, residing at No. 96 North Illinois
street, addressed the board yesterday, say
ing that it had been fully a week since a
garbage collector had visited his residence,
and, while the garbage was kept in a closed
can, it had begun to d~ecompose, and was
not only very disagreeable, but ~unheaFth-
ful. Mrs. l.. r. Hall. residing at 16 Chris
tian avenue, also complained to the board
yesterday that no removals were made
from her residence. She says the wagons
go by her house on a trot, and are gone
before she can hail them. These are only
samples of the complaints received from
all over the city. All the compliments say
that when they were permitted to hire any
one to haul away the refuse they had no
difficulty in getting it removed as often as
they wished, but now it was almost impos-
sible to get rid OF garbage.
Frank w. Noble. residing at 163 Union
street, had a complaint OF a different char-
acter to make against the garbage copl-
pany. He said that he purchased a. coupon
book from the company last fall with which
to pay for the removal or his garbage. NOW
the collector refused to accept the coupons
in payment, and insisted upon cash.
Residents in the southeastern part OF
the city say they never see any garbage
wagons, and did not know they were run

Changing the Fire Captains.

The Board of Public Safety held a meet
ing yesterday at which 1T made a new dis
position of captains in the fire department
to s~traighten out the affairs Of engine COM
pany No. 1. 1t was decided by the board
that it had made a mistake in its previous
arrangement by which Captain Robinson
was made captain of engine company No.. L.
Captain Robinson is a man past fifty years
of age and has been disabled and it was
thought, after consideration, inadvisable to
put him in charge of such an active COM
pany as the rs. Under the new arrange
ment Captain Quinn goes to hook and lad
der No. 8; Captain Arnold, of that COM
pany, to hose company No. II; Captain
Campbell, of the hose company, TO hose
company No. z, and Captain George, of this
latter company, to engine mpan No. L.
The board also considered the question of
charging a fee for the privilege of selling
hay and grain on the hay market. The
market is not now self-sustaining and the
board thinks by the charging Of a small
fee it could be made so. A fee will prob
ably be charged in the future; the amount
to be charged will be fixed by clerk Her
rick and the weighmaster. 1t will probably
