from the boat to attract the Nttcn-
ton of Clarence Fleming, who acted
as his American representative, and
who was trotting down the pier.

Come ON board SO | can give you
the money.
Fleming hurried to the gangplank,
but was told that he could not go
aboard. 4 friendly custom house
officer helped him to Mr., Tree. Then
the actor discovered that he had no
money with linn, and Il hurried

Watson who carried the funds. Wat
son was finally found, and just as
the gangplanks were being passed
in Fleming dashed ashore, clutching
n comfortable Wad Of bills.

dOrf, and after Il conference with

Scaled since creations prehistoric year
The Crthuginim laughed and at the dates

And guess the record Of departed days
Towering like timo into the spacious breast
OF that eternity whose type yc are,
Can we behold you and not yet attest,
Howc'cr inclined we De with faith to war,
That he whose plastic hand can thus invest
You with might and majesty so far
Beyond Us must in his essentials be
All grace and grandcurS full cpitOme2
What mortal pygmy from your Vastly base
Can gaze at your cmbattled brows and say
That he, poor pimplc on creation y face,
Can reason y creative God away?
Who can behold You in the ssft embrace
OF mother clouds whose bOsoms day by day
Nurse you into fruitugc and deny
10 man his fostering sources of supply
The avalanche j., but Jour sportivc jest;
The lightnings are the twinItlmgs Of your
eye;
Unmarked the bowldcr thunders from your

And uurygarlod sweeps the tempest by
