l, sleeping, dreamed was in heaven
Around me countless glories shone;
The great high One before me sat
Upon his yelled throne;
| could not look upon His face.
Its glory was so bright
But toward me streamed a bcauteous ray,
That filed my soul with light.
Angels woke from heavenly Tyres
Ecstatc praises to their Lord
Green fields stretched out before my gaze,
Where happy spirits trod
had no hope, nor wish, nor joy,
No longing unfufilled;
My weary body was at rest
My troubled spirit stled.
l, waking, found | was on earth,
And cares my sad soul press;
Back DER my soul its troubles roll,
And fill me with unrest;
The dark, gray morning breaks at last,
And clouds still veil the sun;
o Father must yet live on?
Is not my suffering done?
A whisper cometh from the hills,
Borne by the morning breeze
Live well thy life, whate'r its strife;
Sad trial days are these;
Thy dream was not one half so fair
AS Gods home for the best.
BE patient, soul; He'll give to thee,
AS His beloved rest"

NEW ENGLAND MEN
To Play Prominent Part in Nc
Kinley's Administration.
Cabinet Position For One Of Them Certainty
-Dingley's Name Mentioned In Connection
With the Treasury Portfolio.
From Our Correspondent.

That New England Is to be a promi-
nent and important factor in the work of
the next administration of national af-
fairs, Is apparent to those who have an
opportunity to study the preparations
for the coming four years by President
elect Mckinley and his advisers. Not
only has he summoned half dozen Of
her leading men to Canton for consulta-
ton, but tn" close relations which ex st
between representatives Of that sectiLl
and Major McKinley's confidential
friends who are in Washington further
evidence that fact. That New England
is to be represented in the cabinet is al
most certain. Whether 1t will be Dingley
as secretary of the treasury, Edmunds
as secretary Of state, Boutelle as secre-
tary of the navy, Apsley or Lodge or
busiel or Proctor, is not yet determined.
In fact, 1t can be confidently stated tn t
nothing has yet been determined as o
the exact makeup Of the cabinet, even as
10 the most nportant places or the most
valuable men available.

WASHINGTON LETTER
Pson our Regular Correspondent,

A straight bluffs what the
announcement thar the Me-
Kinleyites had fused with the
gold democrats for the pur-
pose OF making Il raid upon
the South is regaIqletl to he.
aln.it is not receiving the se-
l'ious attention OF anybody
interested in thpmanngemrnt
OF the campaign Of Nj. Bry-
an. 1t il not believed b a
the gold democrats can poll
enough votes in any South
ffR State tn effect the result,
and it has been known from
the first that the entire move
mpnt was solely in the inter.
est of McKilllry; therefore the
announcement that fusion
between the republicans ana
the gold democrats in some
0i the Southern states h Il Il
bnen agreed upon h ii s no t
caused Il ripple in the Bryan
ranks. 1t is confidently OK
pccted that the South will a.
gain TT solid tiiisyear. There
was some doubt about Ky
and Maryland Il short time
ago, but the fs;SiOn between
the democrats aud populIsts
in Kentucky is regarded a .
having mlde that state sure
.iur Bryan, and theussurancp
nf Senator German that Ma
ryland will go deiho,ratlc, E,
has removed all fears OF that
state. Ii the M'Kinlayit-s
wish to spend some of Han
mas enUrmOus campaign fund
in the south, they will have
no difficulty in finding men
who will exchange the most
glittarins promises !urit. but
MIR. Bryan has more chance
= to get ple'.tJral votes in New
England than Mckinley has
to get them in the South.
Notwithstanding the efforts
of th" railroads to lessen the
attendance at the Convention
of Democratic CluEd to he
held at St. Louis, 10y refusing
to give Il lower rate for tick
cts than q one and one third

convention promises to he 3
