the Atlantic having a carrying capacity
Of over 1900 tons. The ocean Belle, which
was sunk near Delaware Breakwater, was
a new vessel. and one Of the largest from
this port The missing steamer Santuit
and the barges City Of Montreal ana EnOs
Soule have piled from this port north,
with coal for some years. The news here
that several Of the local barges had been
wrecked created considerable excitement
among the mariners. II is apprehended
that among the unknown barges and coal
schooners said TO have been sunk are
some OF those engaged in the coal traffic
from this port. The ships which ran into
Hampton Roads Saturday and Sunday for
shelter are beginning to leave, although
number put back again to-day when an
other local storm blew up.

The Little Quilt.
Cora A. Matson Dolson in Boston Tran

Cora A. Matson Dolson In Boston Trai
script)
The drawer with dainty things was full
The cradle quilt was new,
SO warmly tucked with fleccy wool,
And lined and bound with blue.
The pillow. edged with knitted lace,
Her loving fingers made,
In dreams she saw a tender lace
Against its softness laid.
For but one moment TO her breast
She held that little form.
Nor tears, nor closest kisses pressed,
Nor quilt could keep him warm.
So deep the cradle where he lies
It's rockers never stir;
While angels breathe the lullabies
He never learned from her.
The autumns gently lay a spread
OF mingled brown and gold.
And winter SHOWS about his bed
Their heecy blankets fold.
Each year the May-time weaves anew,
In leafy pattern, set
With violets Of white and blue,
A winsome coverlet.
Her feet now seldom seek the spot
Where he so long has lain;
And almost has her heart forgot
The olden hope and pain.
Yet. somewhere. waits for her the face
And dreams her fancy built,
The while her fingers knit the lace
And pieced the cradle quilt.

Foreigners Like W. w. Astor.


We will venture to say that never in
the history of the world has there ex-
listed country equal to ours in its SER
vitude to the foreigner We use the
word foreigner in what the diplomats
call an extra mural sense, for we
cannot look upon the men who have
chosen this land as their home as for
eigners. The man who settles here from
abroad and strives to gain an honest
livelihood among us has ceased to be
a foreigner. The foreigner is the per-
son who, like William Waldorf Astor,
gets his gold from these shores and
spends it in the pleasure palaces of the
old world. And as for our own de-
pendence upon foreigner, consider the
question of the monetary standard.
We get our fiscal policy made for us
in London. When it is suggested that
we make our own fiscal policy, it seems
that we must call the nations together
in monetary conference and get their
permission. Again, at our very gates,
the foreigner is despoiling the fairest
of isles, and all we can do is look on
helplessly. The foreigner actually
comes over here and organizes a spy
system within our borders, and still
we are helpless. Then the foreigner
takes it into his head to insult our
chief magistrate and then resigns.
That makes our blood boil and we at
tempt to have the insolent foreigner
reminded of what is our due, but 1t is
too late. The foreigner has got ahead
of us by resigning, and so nothing can
be done but wait for some other Span
lard to come over here and do 1t all
over again. On top Of these things, we
boast of our freedom and of our indie
endence.-Twentieth Century.
