oh. yes. the summer was passing fair,
But the rapturOus song Of the happy bird
Found no response In the hearts that
heard
Only the means borne on the summer air.
The means OF wounded. dying men,
Fighting yaiiantly on that southern plain
For honor and right-uot lucre and fame.
The summer was fair and sweet the air.
but then
Our eyes were held; we could not see
What enthralled the senses. but behsld
instead
The missing. tho wounded. the dying.
the dead,
On that tropical plain By the sea.
The dewey grass IN the morning sun
Shone Ike diamonds. so fair was the ieai
But what was It's beauty 70 me or thesY
The battle WAS over. the victory won.
In the tall, rank grass at the close Of day,
The missing lay hidden from friend and
foe,
Athirst with fever. stricken with woe.
God only was with them as lie ebbed
away.
What a rnockery vas the summer fair,
The sparkling grass, the song Of the
bird.
To the soul that listened, the ear that
heard
Only the means borne on the perfumed air.

Prof. Delbrugge has just completed a
thorough course under the renowned
Prof. robert f. Thuma, Of Pittsburg,
and is prepared to instruct in the art
of grace of movement and aesthetic cul-
ture; physical perfection, and the de-
velopment Of the inner forces. as set
forth in The Grace of Man. This book
has been adopted as the authority on
Grace" by the association of masters
of dancing, of the United States and
Canada, and is taught in the leading
schools in this and other countries.
Strength, grace and comliness OF the
body, are the attractive elements that
captivate and hold the imagination OF
mankind. Strength allied to comliness
but void of grace, is pure awkwardness.
Grace guiding strength in gesture and
movement lifts the body to that domain
where comliness is lost in art. The
theory of grace, motion and personal
magnetism, has become a system. It's
principles are clearly explained and
practically illustrated in this new
work which Prof Delbrugge is prepared
to teach. Ordinary intelligence can
easily grasp its principles, and master
its rules, so that its practice will bring
the most awkward body into the realm
of delsartian grace and physical beau
ty. The course of instruction will in
clude physical culture, the German, and
all the latest fancy steps and figures
in dancing. including fancy masque-
rades of children and adults. Glasses
will be held at the Arion Hall, Tuesday
and Saturday evenings from s to II p.
m. Children's class. Saturday after
noon from to 5 p. m. Prof Del
brugge will also conduct classes at
Steubenville. O., and at Wellsburg, W.

season 1899 at the Arion Hall, Tues

Engineer Bush had his first accident
last Friday and as result has been
slightly crippled up this week. Mr.
Bush is one of the Oldest and most care
full engineers of the Mo. Pacific system
and the accident was entirely beyond
his control. The train was coming east
and on rounding a curve near Fort
Gibson he saw large bowlder on the
track, which had rolled there from the
mountain side A prompt application
of air and reversal Of the engine pre-
vented serious disaster. The engine
was slightly damaged.
A number of excursions were run into
Fort Smith Sunday and the city was
full of sightseers. AS usual number
of rowdies took advantage of the
occasion to fill up on bad whiskey and
make things hideous on the return
trains. Fighting, drinking and swear
ing was going on from the time the
trains left Fort Smith. On one of the
trains it is reported many windows
were broken out and the roof shot full
of holes. Also cutting affray is re-
ported between negro and white
man on one of lthe trains, and the re-
port says both were fatally wounded.
A couple of young fellows who had
been spending some time in the
Territory came to town Sunday with an
idea in their craniums that they were
"bad medicine. They ordered
meal at Dave Snodgrass and after
eating it ordered more prepared and
while it was being prepared skipped
out. Marshal Merrill was notified and
he overlook them near Long Bell mills
and they showed fight when he tried to
arrest them and one pulled a gun. The
marshal promptly fitted the butt of his
gun against their heads and they forgot
all about resisting. The mayor next
day assessed the damage to the peace of
the city at $40. so.
