Would You ?
A youth and a maid upon a day
We're roaming in a meadow gay;
Robin sighed, but nothing said,
Mollles cheeks were rosy red.
He poor fellow, was in love
With this pretty turtle dove,
But what to say or what to do
lie didn't know
Would you?
Robin looked in Mollie's eyes
Revealing thought his tongue denies
At last the lover bold doth grow,
He tries to kiss. she muimurs mo. "
Bashful Robin drops her hand,
And, pretty fools, they silent stand;
Oh. such chance TO bill and coo
I'd never miss
Would you?
A love-sick bird upon tree
Trilled to his mate sweet melody,
"Lirra- -lirra-lara la.
Meaning my true love you are"
How these lovers found this out
l cannot tell they did no doubt,
For Robin squeezed and kissed her, toe
And SO would you
Would you?

ern',r issued the proclamation at mid

action that owing to the present condl-
ton of the law the fight managers are
able to pull off the fight while the courts
are rowing over it. In order to settle Il
possible contention he issued the call
converting the legislature Tuesday i'll
this city for the following purposes:
First-To tenounce prize fighting and
kindred practices in clear terms and
prohibited the same by appropriate
pains and penalties, putting the
law into immediate operation and
making necessary provisions fer
enforcement, so that the pro-
posed exhibition of this character within
the state may be prevented, the UNI
doubted will Of the people upon the sub
jpct respected and this affront to the

worst accident that ever occurred Ill TINS

six miners and injuring of four others.
The dead are J. H. Gray, John Ha-

were working in drift about 10 feet
above the lower levels, where 80 pounds
of powder had been stored. According
to Superintendent Dcddridge he had
positively forbidden more than five
pounds CT powder to be taken into the
mine at one time, but it is known that
50 pounds was in the slope at the time.

This, it seems, is the usual method OF

could not get out and SIX Of them slowly

an hour had broken through and discov-

rapidly taken to the surface and the in
