THE ROSE OF YESTERDAY.

The poem printed below is from the
don, Of New York, who, for
several days, has been in Raleigh
attendant upon his sister, Mrs. DR.. r.
II. Lewis, who has been so desperately
i'll. The literary reputation Of Mr. Cor
don renders it quite unnecessary to say
a word here in praise Of his verse, but
the lines to follow are so full of that ten
der blush of color, yet so delicate in
touch and tone, that one may be re-
minded, in the reading, Of the delicious
flush of cherries softened by distant
foliage that enwraps them. The poem of
Rubaiyat, which suggests the verses,
though roo years old, viii be remem-
bered by those who have read it as mel
low with a rich conception that runs
through its lines like the red wine of
dawning sunlight through the hills.
And from the depths of this song comes
a certain sigh, sweet as the breath from
the romantic lips Of h "rose of yester-
day." The South is but the mightier
for the pens of of such young men
each morn thousand roses brings, you
Yes, but where leaves the Rose of yester-
day."
Omar Khayam.
He sang it while its petals still
BY morning dews were pearled,
In perfect numbers set to thrill
The spring-time of the world.
The roses of seven hundred years
Have famed and passed away
Since Omar stepped in golden tears
The Rose of Yesterday.
And since the Masters hand awoke
That deathless chord of pain
That sweetest song that ever spoke
OF what comes not again
The magic of its music yet
Can move a world, grown gray
With countless sorrows, to regret
The Rose of Yesterday,
1t is the flower whose scented flame
No after years can BRING,
II is the bloom that blends one name
with life's most golden spring.
II died ere blight of change could chill
The bosom where 1t lay
And there, in dreams, II mowers stlH
The Rose of Yesterday.
For me, beneath these western skies,
For thee, ut Naishapur,
1t held lifes hottest memories
Because-it lowered for Herl
So Omar, still for thee and me
In the same deathleSs way
May blossom through eternity
The Rose of Yesterday.

THEY MAY GET TO HEAVEN.
Rev. Mr.. Jones Explains in Regard to
the Mitchell County Affair.


To the Editor of the News and Observer;
VALE CRUCES, N. O., July 81.
In recent sermon at Bakersville | re-
marked that no one would ever enter
Heaven through Methodist or Baptist
doctrine, explaining, however, that the
Methodists and Baptists held many
Catholic doctrines, which they had OBJ
tanned from the church; and that I'M
doubtedly great many of them would
be saved, through the great Catholic mot
Roman Catholic doctrines of truth they
held; but not through their sectarian err
rors, additions to and subtractions from
the faith.
When on the streets of Bakersvllle the
next day, | was accused of saying that
no Methodist or Baptist would ever en-
ter Heaven, Indignantly denied the
assertion, and explained the clear dis
tinction l had made between Methodists
and Baptists, and the doctrines they
proclaimed.
| have, therefore, been surprised to
learn to-day that certain persons, for
what reason | am unable to imagine,
persist in declaring an erroneous inter
probation of my words, and have sent to
your valuable paper = statement in &C
cordance with their Interpretation.
If it be true that such a statement has
been sent to you for publication, will
you kindly, also, insert this denial2 /
would on no account be supposed to say
that no Methodist or Baptist could enter
Heaven. On the contrary, fully be-
lieve that many of them will center
through the gates into the city"
merely stated, and still remark, that
they will enter there through the Catho-
lie doctrines they proclaim and believe
and follow; and not through their err on
eous additions to, and subtractionsfrom,
that faith once delivered to the Saints.
Very truly yours,
NJ. JONES.

MAY FIGHT IN MEXICO.
The COrbett- FitzsimmOns Contest Will
Hardly Take Place in Texas.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, July 80. "A pri-
vate dispatch was received here to day
from one of the officers OF the Florida
Athletic Club, inquiring as to the feast
bility Of pulling off the Corbett- Fitzsim-
mons battle in Mexico, just across the
border from Laredo, or Eagle Pass,
Texas. The club desired to know what
facilities in the matter of transportation
could be offered by railroads leading to
the border.
1t is believed that the outspoken atti-
tude of Gov. Culberson toward the pro-
posed pugilistic carnival precludes all
possibility Of it taking place at any place
in Texas.

THE GALVESTON CUP.
Capt. Domer Explains Why the Nor
tons Cannot Have 1t.

Capt. Domer Explains Why the Nor.
tons Cannot Have 1t.
Speaking of the claim of the Morton
Cadets for the possession Of the Galveston
scmi-centennial championship cup, because
of the alleged disarmament of the Thurston
Rifles of Omaha, Neb., Capt. Chal les S.
Domer of the National Fencibles who
twice won the cup, said to n Star reporter
day:
II would suggest. for Capt. Shillins's ben
eft, that he familiarize himself with the
rules governing the cup, and thereby save
himself any unnecessary exertions in the
premises, as the only way by which his
organization can ever hope to gain posses
sion of the cup will be by their own efforts
In an interstate competition, and not
through the misfortune and disarmament Of
the company that has deservedly captured
the prize.
For the benefit of the parties at interest
l will quote extracts from the rules gov
semi-centennial championship cup adopt
ed June 10, 1889: Rule 5-In event Of the
dissolution Of any company holding the
cup 1t shall at once be delivered to the ad-
jutant general of the state of Texas, to be
by him held until again competed for, and
the said adjutant general is vested with
power and authority to obtain possession of
the cup whenever the stipulated rules have
Ill HIS oplIllOn Deen violated, or 1t becomes
in his judgment necessary for him to do So >
" Rule 6-The company winning the cup
shall be declared the champion military or
ganization of the United States, and retain
the title as long as it successfully defends
the same
From the above,'' concluded Capt
Domer "it is very clear that the only way
