SOME WORDS.

Only solle words about the dear old times
Spoken amid the elamor Of the street,
But they We're like tie music OF the chimes
Drifting across the meadows family sweet
Only some words from one who knew the past
Whose eyes had seen the light Of suns gon,
down.
Such simple wordsl And yet spell was cast
Upon the tumult of the noisy town
saw once more the home among the hills,
The lights and shadows on the quiet way,
The budding boughs, the gold Of daffodils,
The long, soft grasses waving all the day
The shades grew deeper, and, behold Greanle5
A dream Of summer woods in gloom anc
glow,
Leaves changed and fell, and scarlet berries
cleaned,
Dropping like coral beads, on heaps - snow
Only some words, but neither brush nor pen
Could paint such pictures for my weary eyes
Beyond the crowd, beyond the strife of men,
looked and saw those lovely visions rise
Such simple words But words are mighty
things.
They cast us down or lift us up to rest.
They charm and strengthen till our angel sings
The last Of oil the life songs and the best.

The famous Colossus of Rhodes
cost 300 talents, u sum equal tC
about 1876, 900 in United States cur.
rency. This sum is a trife however,
when compared to the price paid for
a colossal statue of Mercury, which
was made for the Gaulish city of
Averni by Zenodorus. The artist
was engaged upon this great work
for ten long years, and the total cost
to the city would equal 81, 775, 900.
What the gold and ivory statue of
Athena, in the Parthenon, or the
celebrated Olympian Zeus, both of
which were made by Phidias, cost
is not stated by any of the ancient
or modern authorities, but that it
was enormous may be inferred from
statements made below: Athena was
arrayed in drapery made of pure
hammered gold weighing 40 talents.
The coin value of this wonderful
drapery at the United States mint
today would approximate $3.50, OOO
Of the Olympian Zeus it has been
said that it was a monster idol of
gold and ivory worth more than the
cash assets of many modern king
doms. =" The head of this great image
was covered with locks of pure gold,
each weighing six min@, or about
the value of $25, 900 in modern gold
coin.-St. Louis Republic.

GRASS WOULDN'T GROW,

Perhaps, If There Were POpulists Super
intendent of Ground.
The Lawrence people have good joke
on the board of regents of the State uni
versity.
There was Populist superintendent
of the university buildings and grounds
who has been an eye sore to the Repub-
ican regents, and they have been very
anxious to get rid of him, for there were
plenty of hungry Republicans who want
ed the place.
The board finally decided that
the quickest way to get rid of the
Populist was to dismiss him, he
showed no disposition to resign. This
was done yesterday and Superintendent
Wilson was told that his services were
no longer needed
Out of the half dozen or more appli-
cants a successor was elected in the per.
son of T. c. White, who is said to be we'll
qualified, but when the board adjourned
they were astounded by the information
that White is a Populist and has voted
the Populist ticket since the party was
organized.
It is said that when Regent Charles
Scott heard this he retired to his room
and refused to see his best friends.

The Eminent English Scientists
Long Illness is Ended.
Death Was the Result Of an At
tack of Grip.
WAS 20 YEARS OLD.
A Prolific Writer On Subjects
Of Natural Science.
One of the Strongest Supporters
of Darwinian Theory.

LONDON, June 29.-Prof. T. Il. Huxley
who has been lying at the point of death
FOR several weeks died today at $40 p.
N. His death was the result of an at
tack of the grip which fingered and
gradually overcame him. He was 70
years old.
Thomas Henry Huxley was born at
Ealing, MiddleseX, in 1926. He was in
his youth a surgeon in the royal
navy. About 1848 he produced a
treatise ION the Anatomy and Af1nities
of the family of the Medusae." He sue

eontology in the school of mines about

tory of the Oceanic Hydrozos," "Man's
Place in Nature Lectures on the Ele-
ments of Comparative Anatomy"
"Protoplasm, or The Physical Basis
of Life" "Lay Sermons, Ad-
dresses and Reviews" manual of
the Anatomy of Verte brated Animals"
"Critiques and Addresses" American
Addresses" "Physiology," david
Hume" etc.
In 1872 he was elected lord rector of
Aberdeen university. Mr.. Huxley was a
very popular lecturer Oh natural science,
and stands in the foremost rank among

theory, and his writings are among the
strongest in its support.

CHICAGO, June 29.-Mayor Swift today
issued statement condemning DR.. Ar
thur Reynolds, ex-city health commits
sioner, for the lstter's management of
the smallpox epidemic last winter. The
mayor charges the doctor with gross
neglect of duty and asserts that he alone
was responsible for the spread of the dis
ease and declares that to him are directly
chargeable the 159 deaths which &C.
Cured in the pest house during the win

The mayor says the pest house was
kept in a frightful condition; that the
attendants were careless and inefficient
and that no deaths need have occurred
had the health department been properly
managed
The statement has caused a sensation
in political circles, as DR.. Reynolds is
one of the most prominent physicians in
the city.

VALKYRIE III BEATEN.
Lord Dunraven's Yacht is Outsailed BY
the Britannia.

LORD OunraVen'S YACHT Is Outsa11eO by
the Britannia.
RoTHEsAY, Scotland, June 29.-The
"Clyde fortnight of yacht racing opened
today with the regatta of the royal
northern yacht club.
Enormous crowds of people assembled
at an early hour to witness the first race
of Valkyre III, Lord Dunraven's syndi-
cate yacht, which is looked upon
as almost certain to cross the ocean and
race for the American cup. All were
anxious to see how the new Valkyrie
would shape in race against Ailsa and
Britannia.
The Valkyrie III gave the Ailsa two
minutes and ffty-nine seconds and the
Britannia four minutes and two seconds.
When the gun was fired at 1890 Ailsa
was pointing direct for the line and went
over first. Valkyrie was we'll handled
and before half a mile of the course
had been covered she took the
lead the Britannia close behind her, and
Ailsa long distance astern. Britannia
came over the finish line first and was
declared the winner
The race for the 20-raters was stopped
at the end of the first round, and Mag
ara, Howard Gould's yacht, was declared
winner.
