This Is the time Of dearth.
This Is the season when lie
Weary Of yearning and toll,
Weary OF burgeoninE leaf,
Weary Of rtpeninB fruit,
And the flushing OF harvest gold
Pauses awhile in her tasks,
And rests In the blaze OF her noon,
This Is the season when death
Fleeing from budding Spring,
Stunning the jocund May
And the feCund days Of June
Pauses awhile in his flight,
And whets his sword for the prey.
Nature is drunken with life
The golden beaker upturned,
Drained to the bitter lees.
The grape Is surcharged with wine,
The flower with Its honey dew,
And the heart with its travail and care
The bee has stored her cells,
And the ant has provided his house.
The spRTrow's coat Is brown
With the Summers dust and sun,
AS he chlrrups his lonely lay.
phe hue on the robins breast,
Where he shows his feryent heart,
Ia dulied, and he shuns the light,
Hidden deep In the woodland gladcs.
BoboiinkS and orioles
Flash In the foliage no more;
And the music Is almost mute
Through all the kingdom OF song.
Tho serpent glides 10 the cave,
To shed his tawny skin.
Ana sleep tlW SpllIlk Fuhll uMuhN
And clothe him In FURNISHED bronze
The leaves, heW1y with sap,
L.RnEuorOusly rest on the boughs;
And flowers droop on their stems,
And await the betrayinE kiss
OF the beautiful, trencherous frost,
And the requiem Of Autumn Winds.
Tho weary sun in heaven
Hangs In browse OF pain.
Past Is tho day OF his strength,
And the glorious might OF his beams.
No more can he summon from earth
Plants and the tender leaf:
or redden the qulckening juice
In the chnlice OF the grape
or tint the check OF the peach,
or flame in the poppy's heart,
or add hue to the rose,
or set the Incense ablnZe
In the bosom of Vlolets.
He can only blast and blight.
He has no power TO stir
The wine In tho pulses OF life.
He awaits the falling OF SHOWS
And yearns for the distant Spring:
While Winter looks from the north,
And marshnls the forces OF death.
The air Is languId and dull.
And reels and swoons o'or the earth
In impotcnt llfeleRs heat.
The winds are sunk to sleep,
In tho silent void OF heaven.
Weary in space Itself
Weary Of Summers glare,
And the burthcn OF night and day;
OF the flashing OF arrogant stars,
OF tho meteors' insolcnt glow,
OF the whlr of comets in Hight,
And tho dreary weight of the worlds.

ALGER'S REINDEER
May Make Good Meat if Killed at
Once

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The complete
failure of the Alaskan reindeer expedition
was announced to the war department to-
day in telegram from General Merriam,
commanding the military department Of
the Columbia. This telegram summarizes
a report from DIR. Sheldon Jackson at
Dyea to the effect that they are failure
in Alaska for want of proper forage and
useless for all the exploring expeditions
in Alaska that many are already dead, but
moss has been found by which part of the
herd may be saved; that the tlme lost will
compel the reorganization of exploring ex-
pedition No. l, il it is to go on but on the
advice of Captain Tay and in his own judg-
ment, DR.. Jackson recommends the recall
of the expedition, remarking that Captain
Ray brings full information of the region
it was expected to explore and that the
services of Captain Brainerd are no longer
required in that connection. Expedition
No. l referred t6 was to have proceeded 10
Dawson from Dyes, over what is known as
the Dawson trail and was in command of
Captain Brainerd.
Acting on the recommendation of Gen.
eral Merriam, an order was issued at the
war department today relieving Captain
Brainerd from further duty with the expo
ditions in Alaska and requesting him to re-
port in person to the commissary general
of subsistence at Washington.

indemnity and reparation for alleged
wrongs perpetrated one against the other.
After long deliberation the Diet decided
to send to Costa Rica a memorandum
practically an ultimatum, couched in
terms which it is believed will not be ac-
cepted by Costa Rica. This memorandum
will say If the terms are not accepted war
will be declared within As hours.
Mail advices from the Herald's CORE
spondent in Managua dated few days
ago stated that he had just learned that
the court of arbitration, which met aboard
the United States naval vessel Alert at
Punta Arenas, signed an agreement to
temporarily suspend war preparations in
Nicaragua and Costa Rica and withdrew
their forces from the frontier until final
decision of the arbitrators, who will meet
in Guatemala City, is reached.
The arbitrators will only consider claims
of Nicaragua against Costa Rica for aid
ing Nicaragua rebellions and Costa Rica
claims for the arrest and Imprisonment of
Consul Beeche in Managua in September
last.

INSURGENTS NOT RECOGNIZED

Associated Press Special Wire

WASHINGTON, Apr. 1s.-After one Of the
hardest-fought battles between the two
houses known in many years, congress at
an early hour this morning came to agree
ment upon the most momentous question
it has dealt with in third of century.
The Cuban resolution was passed and will
be sent to the president this morning. Its
provisions mean the expulsion of Spain
from the island of Cuba by the armed
forces of the United States. There were
many roll calls in both houses and each
body held tenaciously to it's own resoiu-
ton. The conferees had great difficult1in
agreement. The first conference showed
determination on the part of the house not
to yield single point, and 1t was only after
long consultations with the house leaders
that they agreed to allow the two little
words land are in the first section of the
senate resolution, which declares that the
people of Cuba are and of right ought to be
free and Independent. The resolution az
finally adopted was that reported from the
senate committee on foreign relations with
the addition OF the fourth section known as
the Teller amendment, disclaiming any in
tention on the part Of the United States to
acquire Cuba. The resolution cannot be
sent to the president until after 1t is signed
by the presiding officers today.

SAN FRANCISCO, April ia special
to the Chronicle from Chicago says: Plans
for the overthrow of William ]. Bryan

Club of Cincinnati. 1t is proposed to
arouse popular interest particularly in the

a gloomy OUTLOOK
LONDON, April 19.-(By Associated
Press) The Madrid correspondent of the
Daily Mail, telegraphing at 10 o'clock Mon
day evening, sayss
During the day the outlook has become
much worse and very gloomy views are
entertained
| 1t is the general belief that rupture is
imminent.
The cabinet council met at o'clock
this afternoon. The session lasted three
hours. Senior Sagasta, the premier, sub
mitted a draft of the speech from the
throne. Its tenor is not precisely known,
though it makes an appeal to the highest
patriotism of the nation.
1t summarizes the International problem
and points out that Spain has always pre-
sented an accommodating front in every
thing which did not diminish her sover-
eighty, though she only agreed to grant a
cessation of hostilties in Cuba when the
pope made his request and the powers
joined in counseling it.
The speech from the throne appeals to
the Spanish people to rally around the
young king, save the country and grant
to the government everything which may
be necessary and urgent to defend the ma
tional honor and integrity.

they were hooted and hissed by the crowd
on account of the poor exhibition they
made. Creedon would not or could NOT
fight, and Stiff was little better. Jimmy
Barry and Billy Rotchford fought six

Jack Grace of Chicago were ordered out
OF the ring after half round, 1t being an
parent that they did not intend to fight.

MADRID (via Biarritz), April 1S.-(Spe-
cial to The Herald.) Spanish efforts are
being redoubled to induce the Cuban in
surgents to scorn the United States inter-
ference. The Spaniards are trying to
make the insurgents believe that the
United States seeks the annexation of
Cuba rather than to foster a Cuban re-
public. They are endeavoring to convey
to Cubans the idea that the latter would
be better Off In the enjoyment of gen.
erous autonomy with merely nominal su-
zerainty of the mother country rather
than to become a part of the American re-
public. Reports are sedulously circulated
here that the generals, Gomez and Garcia
are being reached upon the basis indicated.
Notwithstanding the efforts made by Spain
to belittle the United States in the ewes of
the insurgents, it is admitted in Madrid
tonight that the three Cuban ministers
who have left Havana to try to make
terms with the insurgent chiefs run the
risk of being shot. as was Ruiz.
The six great powers are advising Spain
to ask the good offices of the United States
to secure the permanent pacifcation of the
island. She cannot accede to this. for II
probably implies civil war. A message
was received today by leading Carlist
in Madrid from Don Carlos in which the
latter says:
"If Spain should lose Cuba through her
own fault, that is, without war, those
Spaniards who will not respond to my call
which is the call of their king, will be
traitors"
Thus those who might be inclined to re-
linquish Cuba without a fight are pre-
vented from doing so through fear of do
mestic dissension.
The most. frantic efforts are being made
to get the great powers to interfere SO as
to preserve, at least nominally, the sover-
eighty of Alphonso XIII. over the Pearl
of the Antilles. To this end the Monroe
doctrine is distorted to mean not the pre-
vention of further extensito!s of European
power upon the American continent, not

Major Otey's Renomln alton.
Roanoke Worldly

In unanimously renominating Hon. Peter
]. Otey for the second time as the Dem
ocratic candidate for Congress for this
district, the late convention at Lynch
burg simply registered what has been
known TO be the popular will for
months, II not for years In fact, such has
been the zeal and fidelity of Mr.. Otey in
the service of his district and state, that
it may be said that no other name than
his own since his first election has hard
~ been suggested to the minds OF his
constituents as his successor, and IL is
doubtful IL there is to-day in the entire
House of Representatives any man whose
place is more firmly established by faith
full and efficient services than that OF
our able and energetic representative.
His course has been perfect in its con-
scented this district has been as tireless
and persistent IN his efforts to advance
the interest of his constituents, indi-
vidually and collectively, as he has been.
In renominating him for the office, which
he has filed with so much ability, the
Democrats OF this district show that they
fully appreciate the value Of his services
and are determined TO hold on to him
as long as possible as their representative.
While as election, however. is foregone
conclusion, If the Democrats of this dis
trict do their duty. they should go TO
the polls In November with a determi-
nation to give him the rousing majority
which his distinguished services demand

The YellOvv-Fever.
Norfolk Landmark1

II should not be necessary to say that
the people OF this section look TO the
quarantine authorities TO protect them
from any possible danger of an epidemic
OF yellow-fever. The fact that the
dreaded disease has broken out among
our troops in Cuba should make the
health officials doubly alert. Our peo-
pie have the deepest sympathy with the
poor fellows who have been wounded In
the Cuban campaign, but that sympathy
does not prevent wholesome fear Of a
pestilence which has so often wrought
havoc In the South. To bring men who
have been exposed TO infection and place
them I'm a section where yellow-fever can
sprad is rather perilous thing TO do.
North of a certain latitude, yellow-fever
will not spread. as everybody knows. The
government could carry wounded or sick
men TO New England for hospital treat
ment without su5jecting the country to
the danger Of an epidemic. II any of the
soldiers should develop a case Of fever,
there would be no fear OF infection. To
attempt to care for our Ill and wounded
troops in hospitals south of the yellow
fever line would involve risks vastly out
Of proportion to the slight saving in trans
portation. This is matter in which true
economy consists in taking every reason
able precaution for the safety OF our
home population, not In running the risk
Of a fearful epidemic in order TO save
Few thousand dollars. As we have said,
however, we feel sure that the health
authorities may be relied upon to do what
s wise and proper.
