most unfortunate feature of the re-

cHoPlN'S TWELFTH NocTuRNe.

Beyond the realm of being and of pain,
Upward and onward fits my charmed soul,
Captive to the ineffabe control
OF music's wonder worker. Every strain
Of this heaven nurtured harmony is rain
To the parched Glebe of memory, scroll
Wherein arc craven cabalas that roll
Floods of bewildeTng transport on the brain.
In joys whirlpool revel as soar.
And from the ether heights whereto l climb
List the sound waves sweep back from Lethe's
shore
In lessenins cadence toward the stand o.
Time.
Deeply in the Circean founts dip
And with the wild winds mix in fellowship.
A season. and throughout my spirit runs
A pang of awesome desolateness, lent
The somberness of some dead armament
OF cinerated worlds and buried suns.
And then the presence of long vanished ones
Soul fellows ere youths heritage was spent
Glides palpably a-near. l am content.
My grasp Intinitude no longer shuns.
A moment, and a mighty sorrow, born
OF eXaltation's excess. casts a pail:
Tears start as drops of Natures grief at morn
Adown chameleon shafts of sunlight fall;
My being Quivers meath the sweet duress
OF pain more joyous than ea-th's joyousness.

Philadelphia workingmen Protest
Against the Wilson Rfii,

Against the Wilson Bill.
WASHINGTON, April 21.-The dem
onstration of the Workingmen's Pro-
tective Tariff league against the
Wilson bill was begun in Washington
yesterday. A special train of eight
cars carrying the first delegation of
eco men and women pulled into the
b. g. o. depot from Philadelphia at
noon and was received by Congress-
man Harmer of the Fifth PENNSYLVANIA
district. The delegation marched
down Pennsylvania avenue to Metz
erotts hall, where headquarters have
been established. There an address
of welcome was made by Mr. Harmer
ard the delegates dispersed for dinner.
Across several cars were draped or
streamers: "WorlSingmen's Protective
Tariff league; demonstration at
Washington against the Wilson bill"
Several of the delegates carried ban
ners carefully shrouded in wrapping
paper, since word had gone forth that
they would not be permitted to parade
IN Washington. Each one had pinned
to the lapel of his coat n ribbon ot
red, white and blue, from which hung
a gilt medal.
Thirty young women from the car
pet weaving factories were badged.
A majority of the delegation was from
Trenton, CT lden, Msnayung. Bristol
and Chester. The textile workers
are in the greatest number, but the
iron workers, cigar makers and other
industries are largely represented.
When the advance guard had reached
Metzerott's hall meeting was held
without delay. The committee on
resolutions will report at a meeting
to-day. Another committee will wait
on the members of the senate finance
committee to ask for hearing. Sew
eral officers called on the chief of po-
lice and received permit to parade.
To-day the delegates now in the
city will march to the depot to meet
incoming workingmen. Then. with
their banners flying. .l;e whole body
will march 10 the edge OF the Capitol
grounds and their delegates will be
sent to the senate with the resolu-
tions The demonstration will be
unique in the history of congress.

Therefore 10000 women have now

fateful words, IL is almost unnecessary
to say, are from the pen of Walter

the Bank of England has decided to
appoint women as clerks, that various
merchants offices are doing the same
thing, and that In certain branches of
the civil service women are being EN-
ployed. II all means. he argues, that
10000 men will be unemployed, will
seek fresh fields and pastures new,
leaving 10000 women in their places
and 10000 other women husban6ess!
He finds no ray of light in the gloomy
prospect. lie admits that the country
will save about $500, 900 year by the
change. But" he goes on, 40, 900
possible families are not called into
existence. Now 10000 families may
average 10000 children. The country,
therefore, loses the work, brains pro-
ductive power, fighting power, colo
nizing power of Al, 900 men and women.
Putting the productive power of one
person at 800, we have loss in the
next generation of E4,000, 900 year.

Their argument was very powerful
and convincing one, too, in their own

ly that when there were no railroads in
the kingdom the empress was in good
health and after the introduction OF
railroads she became ill. They were

authorities of the cities and towns to
submit the question of license: that 1t
is done presumably TO feel public

vote for or against license, it has no
