Bound, WHITTIER Bound.

Bound, whittier bouud2 Poor mortals
are we,
Bound to the shores of eternity
Bound to the realm where vast millions
have gone,
Where each IN his turn must journey
alone.
Increasing In numbers since first 1t
began,
Z On sweeps the strange mob, but the
tottering old man
As he goes through the gateway Of
Death looks around
And wonders, much more than the
child, where he's bound.
Bound, onward bound and we can't
help but go
Time pushes us forward, now fast and
now slow;
Some hurrying onward with eager,
mad haste,
All anxious and burning the blisses to
taste
Which are waiting for them in the
bright life to come,
In the place they regard as their
"heavcnly home !"
Whilst others point grimly alone at
the ground,
As If there lay the goal to which NOR
tails are bound.
Bound, whittier bound ? Go ask them
and see
What they think is their probable des-
tiny.
Some will say by their faith they are
journeying to God,
And some see the end when we're placed
meath the sod;
Some do not know, some do not care,
And some fix their destiny anywhere,
And some say in cycles we go round
and round,
Through birth after birth to the goal
where we're bound.
Bound, whittier bound9 Flooding
along,
Now with moan, now with song,
Now with smile, now with sigh,
Now longing to live, now wishing to
die.
Now singing and dancing and laughing
at fears.
Now heartache and sorrow and terrible
tears,
Now prayers and entreaties, but oh !!
not sound
Is borne to our ears from the land
where they're bound
Bound, whittier bound Who knows,
who can tell
But some are for heaven, and others
for hell
But what the extent of these realms
may be
Is yelled in perpetual mystery;
Yet glimpses at times we catch in our
dreams
OF rapturous things, and the mystery
seems
Unveiled, and revealed to our mortal
eyes
Are the joys of the valiant and pure in
the skies,
In the realm where true souls are with
happiness crowned,
Through the portals of Death, where
we mortals are bound

Long Sentences for Two Of the Rsches-

George 0. Taylor and John H.
O'Donnell, two of the four alleged
robbers captured in Rochester last
Thanksgiving day, was sentenced at
6 o'clock Monday afternoon in the
Windsor county court to 20 years
each IN the state prison for assaulting
the officers with intent to kill.
The trial began Wednesday, and
the case was given to the jury about
4 o'clock Monday. The ground of
defense was that the officers did not
make known their authority to arrest.
The other two men are serving time
in New York state for the postoffice
robbery at Ticonderoga, and that
charge still hangs over Taylor and
O'Donnell.

The States of Iowa and Wisconsin

This is final decision. and will en-

The Dubuque Telegraph SAYS:
I'm the case from Lansing. the SUI
preme court, reversing the lower
tribunal, decides that the state has
jurisdiction of the sloughs and lakes
on the Iowa side of the Mississippi
river and that except in the main
channel fishing can be legally prose-

Horses Which Eat the Tempting Plant Go

MILWAUKEE. Oct. 15.--Dr. G. f. Scott,
state veterinarian, has discovered that un~
der the shaggy yellow blossoms Of the
goldenrod flower there turks the germs of
the rost dangerous disease to horses
which has ever been discovered. Like
consumption, it is incurable and it affects
the equine in much the same way as that
dread disease eats away the life of human
being The horses that eat the tempting
plant go into gradual decline, the blood
is destroyed, the tissues waste away, and
they die in from three, weeks TO three
months.
Thousands of horses have persisted in
the pineries Of Michigan, Minnesota and
Wisconsin from this disease The state
veterinarians Of these states have for a
long time tried in vain to discover the
cause of it. DIR. Scott said II am salts
fed this is where the trouble lies. There
is no cure for it, Nothing can be done ex-
cept to destroy the leaf and root. "
