once to make his word good
Come, Freddy, boy, he said oaioling-
". Shall papa cut Freddy hair? Yes,

Juniper clicked his shears as he spoke
and Freddy shook his tangled head dedant-

Juniper, chasing after the fleeing boy,

FELL DOWN AN AIR SHAFT.
John Vett of Osborne is Hurt at the
State House.

here to see the sights and witness the
excitement caused by the presence OF
the Democratic convention, fell through
a ventIating shaft in the west wing of
the state house about noon today.
Vett fell headlong from the ground
floor to the basement a distance of
about 25 feet, striking head first upon
pile of shavings that undoubtedly
saved his life.
He was discovered by r. B. GilluIy in
an unconscious condition and taken to
the railroad commissioners office where
he was restored to consciousness by
cold water. Vett complained of feeling
worse about 1 o'clock, and it is feared
his injuries may be more serious than
at first supposed.

EAME-AN

A temple in the morning lirht
Rose far upon the mountain hci. hit
And shot its turreL5 high
Against the vaultel SKY.
The youth set forth, with heart alame,
Full armed with faith to write his name
Among the deathless great
Who conquer adverse fate.
he leaves his home with pouch and staff
And answers back with easy laugh
The warning and Gistrust
OF those whose hearts are dust.
The mountain roads are hard to clims-
The solemn cent. i.s Of t;..c
Have press ID the wrinkles deep
On every :'olling steep.
Wild hungry beasts crouch in his path,
And Shiny serpentS hiss thsir wrath,
While from the trees he owls
Hoot in black robes and cowls.
Then follows Night, Il pilgrim old,
A miser hiding the suns gold,
His dark breast deckeh with stars
Won IN CELESTIAL wars.
Still through the gloom the temple shed
Its radiance round the travellers head,
But in its pailld light
His brown hair turns to white.
By colder winds his face is famed.
he longs to clasp some friendly hand
Or feel the welcome touch
OF lips that love him much.
At last the temple gates are won.
he enters in. his journey done,
Then sinks i'll blank despair.
No living thing is there.
He mo breathe the sitting air.
The light, n phospborcscent glare,
That oundh his path was shed
Falls only on the dead.

did. it looks like landslide Although
at this hour of writing the returns are
necessarily fragmentary and come
chiefly from the cities, their almost uni

of Mckinley and Hobart by a decisive
majority. The possibility that the
country districts might turn the tide
in Bryan's favor has vanished before

so-called doubtful states so far heard

Kinley column by safe majorities while
the election news from below Mason
and DiXon's line indicate that the solid
South is broken at last. The inroads
made in the Southern tier will, we
think. prove to be perhaps the most
surprising feature in yesterdays re-

has been unprecedentedly large, MAX

the third ticket, which is, indeed, al
most lost sight of. The inference is
inevitable that the sound money Demo-

publican candidate and that it is to
these votes he will owe his decisive ma
