a LITTLE SONG.

LITTLE SONG.
Let the winter blow Its best;
Here the hearth Is warm;
Safe at home with love We rest.
Sheltered from the storm,
Love that makes the darkness while,
Lifts the lilies to the light
Winter, winter wild,
Good night
Good night
Lit the storm winds beat the birds
From each lonely nest;
Safe at home, we hear loves words,
Folded to bis breast.
Love that bends the rainb9w bright
Parts the clouds till heayen's IN sight
S,orfmy, Stormy win1-,
Good IiShE
Good night.

New York. May 15.-The treasury de-
partment has issued a further call on
depository banks. graded according to
the amount of their holdings. The ag-
gregate amount so held is about 81. .000,-
600. The call is general on all deposit
tory banks for so per cent of their hold
ings, to be paid on or before June 1.
At the sub-treasury and banks Ii is
stated that no important change in
money rates Is likely to result at this
moment from the call, owing to the
large continued receipts of funds from
the interior. and heavy amounts of for
eign capital Offering i'm this market.
The call by the treasury department on
depository banks for SO per cent. of
their holdings did not influence the
market. The governments action is
taken to influence the gold export
movement. as any appreciative hard
ening of quotations for money would
result in the stemming of the outflow
of the metal. aside from shipments of
special character.
