DESCENT OF LOVE.

Hath man e'er had experience like this
For poets sing a love which children mock,
And bliss Of love therein is laughing stock
Their silly words make creed for common

Our life had long been dreamy holiday
Till when one sven OH the bleak highway,
I told her that I loved her, and she left
Her soul upon my lips, and thus we staid
Bereft of earth. and tlen-oh. strangel-we
fed
Down the bleak highway till the places fear
Had closed his wings and left from following.
So here, within sound Of her sweet singing,
This summers day I fathom that dread time
And liken it-how up some desert peak
went ancient men and heard God speak
And won his law. But once they went, no morei
Yea, though God's dreams ran burning In their
brain,
They hurried to the ways Of humble mon,
Nor prayed Of him to visit them agatni

TlNWARE.

cult for her to keep out of trouble with
u.s.
The suggestion made in an interview
published in these dispatches the other
day that the president might give up
his negotiations on the basis of Spain'S
granting independence to Cuba, and
, continue them on the basis of Cuba's
accepting autonomy, has been widely
discussed here. Members of the cabi-
net and leading men in congress have
shown much interest in it. and it has
already been brought 10 the attention
of the president by members of his Of
fetal household. The only question
which seems to be troubling any Of
them is whether popular sentiment in
this country, which is too apt to be
sentiment purely, would not revolt
against any policy Of intervention in
Cuban affairs which did not have for
its immediate object the independence
of Cuba. Still, the suggestion derives
some support even from the free Gu
ba" element, on the ground that it Of
fers a bridge on which to pass from the
present situation to complete indepen-
dence, just as Canada is probably
making that progress now. In re-
Spouse to some of the criticisms which
have been called forth by the auton- I
omy suggestion, its author said today:
eff Cuba is to be independent event.
ually, 1t would be better for her IL 1t
should come somewhat SLOWLY. win
the utmost friendliness for Cuba 1t
cannot be said that she is capable of
Self-government as an independent
state-the attempt would bring prac-
tical anarchy, and then the United
States would be held responsible and be
compelled to take possession, which Is
to be avoided on every ground. The
proposition l made was not to guaran-
tee autonomy but simply to stop the
struggle with some reference to the
rights, feelings and interests of both
sides. If autonomy is not genuinely
bestowed or fairly administered. the
right to revolt again is not ques-
toned; but It Is contended that the
United States might probably say that
the present rebellion must stop now,
for the state of humanity and for the
interests of all parties concerned. 1t
is compulsory arbitration: and, as in
the case of private quarrels over bust
ness, the arbitrator interferes, not to
compel one party TO yield everything
to the other, but so as to secure a liv-
ing chance for both. Cuba is as much
Spanish soil today as the District OF
Columbia Is American soil. and our
right to stop a contest which has
passed all the limits of civilized war
fare does not give us the right to cut
a province loose from the mother cOun-
try. The method I have suggested
contains the possibility of a speedy
peace, honorable alike to all parties"
