appointed c. E. Smith, president OF
the Central Vermont Railroad Com
pany, and Charles Nj. Hays, genera
manager of the Grand Trunk Rail.

A Reign of Terror.

There is horror too prolific in the jargon
scientific which dis,urbs the mood pacific
OF the ordinary man:
In these awful tales that thrill us of a buga-
boo bacillus that is hiding near to kill us
If by any chance it can.
Not single chance it misses; it is lurking
in our blisses: it is even in the kisses
That delight a leap year dream;
In the air are microbes boating in the water
they are gloaiing, fiendish vigilance de-
voting
10 their weird, malicious scheme.
0. We philosophic sages. We We're happy all
these ages while these animals outrageous
unsupported tourishei here:
And although Just for The present. we with
stand their siege incessInt, we run other
risks unpleasant.
For we're almost dead with fear.
