suitable memorial TO the memory of our great
leader, Frances Il. Willard. 1t seems to be
the best judgment OF all whom we have con-
suited that inasmuch as the Temple has al
ready been erected and is so closely connected
with her name and that Of the w. G. T. u,
we cannot do better than unite in a supreme
effort to raise by subscriptions from people of
wealth the sum necessary for Its purchase.
We are urged to make this endeavor, because

A TRIBUTE.


For THs GAzETTE
Lieutenant Newton D. Kirkpatrick
and Cadet Thomas II. Wheeler, young
soldiers, who had fought, unscathed, at
Santiago de Cuba, and had but recently
returned to the United States, were
drowned, Wednesday night, September
18th, 1898, while bathing in the surf
near the camp at Montauk Point, Long
Island, N. Y. The morning tide re-
turned the bodies, the sea giving up
her dead. Hence these lines:-
Two youths whose Southern blood ran
warm
And bearing glory from the war,
And each Adonis-like in form,
And beaming like a morning star,
Have passed the bourne whence none
returns.
And earth, where Loves bright altar
burns,
Bercft, indeed, in silence moums.

DisrObed, they touched old ocean name
To wrestle with him all about
Upon his smooth and wave washed plane,
For all were warriors. In his way
Zen ocean was n chieftian gray
And there was frolic in the fray
All went on like n merry dance
An still an equal match it seemed,
al Il 4
And sometimes wildly tossed and
screamed.
But why should there be doubt and fear2
Was not old Terra Firma near2
On with the tussle Shout and cheer
Just then the Mermads Of the deep
Came near, and ravished with the charms
or those gay youths, did sudden leap.
And caught them in their fateful arms,
And back on fast recedng waves
Bore them to hidden coral caves,
Which every gem OF ocean paves.
All night they held high carnival
Over the captive youths so fair.
And tuned their shells as Sirens all,
And bound them with their silken hair,
But, ere Aurora's flush was gone.
Detained no longer as their own,
They kissed, and sent them back alone
But ah they kissed away their life
The gems withholding, pure and rare,
That fitted them for nObler strife
On earth's arena everywhere,
And then returned, without remorse,
Upon the name Of oceans horse
Two empty caskets-each a corse.
We took them in our arms OF love-
And wrapped them in the army blue,
And, bowling to the viii above,
With honOrs TO hero due,
Each in a soldiers loye-lined grave
We laid them-daring, gallant, brave,
Whose all they TO their country gave.
Go winds with odor OF the pines,
With scent OF roseleaves on your wings
Go in the spirit OF these lines,
And with harp OF many strings
Sing DER their graves with all your skill
soft requiems, when earth is still,
For such must be COPS holy will.
