The Golon'g Account lBool

We clip the following itom from tho
Nowburyport (Mass.) Herald: "The ac-
count book of tho paymastor of tho
Christobal Colon was picked up on tho
beaoh, near Mi6dletown, by Philip b.
Peckham, of that town. Tho record in
tho book was carried up to Juno 1, 1903,
and tho balance showed that the officer
had on hand 43,302 posetas, or $S,672. 1t
is thought chat tho paymastor carried
tho book off tho Colon after sho sur
rendered, but threw it overheard from
tho Harvard whom she was off Newport,
r. l., on her way to Portsmouth with
the Spanish prisoners, and it is thought
1T was swept ashore by an ocean curront.
Philip Pecl1ham, tho finder of the ac-
count book, is cousin of Mr.. George Fl.
Peckham, formerly an esteemed resident
in this city, and now located in tho
South" Tho George H. Pcckham re-

Carry him out and put him away,
Rcvi!lc no more wakes him now;
We've sounded his last Lights out" today,
And the dust has fallen on his lips and
brow
so leave him there leave him there, resting
still.
With heed no more fer retreat or drill.
Lead his horse back 10 the camp again.
Lead the beast kindly, 70: don't you see.
He frets at the guidance of other men
He misses the press Of familiar knee;
SO lead him back over the glartng sand
Kindly, for sake Of the other hand.
Three yollcys over the trooper grave,
Aud he moved no cyelid at noise of the
three.
Ave" the FIRST, to the souI of the brave,
And the second " God speed from the com
pany.
And the last said Vale" and then we turned
And left him wai:ing what peace h. had
earned.
We shed no tear and We make 10 moan
For the man y no has left Us to rest a while.
We pity him, lying there all alone,
We recall Old gesture and quiet smile:
But why should We weep for him now, when
he
Wanted Lights out" through eternity?

This term was not first used by the

lister of state who affected to Tidicule
the warnings OF those who were con-
stantly drawing the attention Of the
TWO houses OF Parliament to Russias
steady advance toward India The
term was a happy one in its way; bn.
time ere long proved that the alarm
lists were correct, and the said minis
ter, so far as l remember, deprecated
its being constantly brought up against
aim. The word was coined by the duke
Of Argyll, who, in a speech in the house
Of lords was deriding the we'll founded
apprehensions of those who feared that
the Russians would make themselves

Every hungry, helpless human
Have 10 eat, eat. eat. eat, eat
We'd save money If We didn't have to eat.
All our worry would be over
II We didn't have to eat,
Would the butcher, baker grocer
Get your hard earned dollars? 10. sir
We would then be right II clover
cool and sweet.
Wantand hunger we could cheat,
And we'd get there with both feet,
II we didn't-pour or wealthy,
Halt or nlnblc, SICK or healthy
Have to eat, eat, eat. eat. cat
We could get there if we didn't have to eat.
