There was a poet born who had deem in
his heart a song;
He sprang from the soil-he pl0wed the
fields in spring;
But ne conned the songs of the ancient
bards-he studied we'll and long,
And ever he sang to himself the song
that God gave him to sing!
And he loved the mother who bore him
and as they toi1ed away
He thought Of the Joy she would have In
hear him sing his song some day.
In secret moments OF the night his heav-
emily song he wrote
Letter by letter, word by word. and.
likewise, line by line;
And he sang 1t unto the beasts Of the
field: he caught the song birds note
And held 1t fast, and in his eyes was
the light that il divine
The song that he had been givtn to sing
he poured from his heart, and then
He ran to sing 1t to her. whose love sur.
passed the praise Of men.
He sang the sorg-the song sublime that
had burst from the depths OF his
heart;
She. dumpiy heard him sing until the
last note died away.
tAh, but" she sadly sighed, twill
bring you nothing in the mart,
For men have little gold to give In trade
for songs today"
He gazed into her face. and saw but cold,
sharp wrinkles there
His song became a sOb-he turned and
Proved on in despair.

TO LEARN HER FATE,
Search for the Schooner VIII
liam @. Snow.
Believed to Have Been in Collision
During the Big Storm.
Crews Of Two Wrecl . I Marie Vessels LANDED
in New York.

New York, Jan. 4.-Strenuous efforts
are being adopted by the owner of the
ship and the relatives of those aboard
to learn the fate of the three masted
schooner William o. Snow, which sail
ed from Newport News with a cargo of
coal for Salem, Mass, Nov. q last,
was reported off Atlantic City. two
days later, and all trace has since been
lost.
1t is believed she was run down by
big steamship entering or leaving this
port during the heavy snow storm of
Nov. 20 and that the whole Of the crew
of eight men persisted. If such were
the circumstances the collision has
never been reported. Capt. Curtis OF
the schooner George Binley has re-
ported that on Dec. he saw the masts
of submerged schooner about 20 miles
from Fire Island, east south east Of
Sandy Hook.
The vessel was apparently sunk In
about % fathoms Of water. The theory
of the owners is that this was the
: wreck Of the William o. Snow which
sshad been run down in the snow storm
of the night of Nov. 20 and that the
colliding steamship has failed to make
a report of the occurrence.
In addition to Capt. Ellis, who hailed
from Dennisport, there We're seven men
about the missing schooner. The cap
tain's brother acted as mate. The
mother of the brothers Ellis, who lives
at Dennisport, is in an almost dement,
ed state at the loss of her two sons
The steward, a man named Pickering
has a sick wife and young family des-
titute at Northeast Harbor, Maine. Al
the seaman came from New Bedford.
The William o. Snow was built al

New York. Jan. 4.-The police made

that they are drawing their net in clo-

and it is in order to get the proper
evidence that the police are holding
back from making an arrest.

THE GERMAN VOTE.

The uncertainty of how the Germans
will vote is troubling the politicians OF
all parties. Up to ten years ago most OF
the Germans were Republicans. but in
1892 it was that vote which gave Hill
nois. Indiana, and Wisconsin to Cleve
land. and made Ohio close. In 1896 most
of the Germans voted for Mckinley 1t
is a vote that cannot be bought, and
most Germans vote together.
The leading German editor in Cmcin-
natl, who is an influential Republican, is
quoted as saying that while the Germans
are against imperialism, they will vote
with the Republicans in Ohio on State
issues, and wait to give voice to their an
ti-imperialistic sentiment in the national
election if it is then an issue. If he is
right, the Republicans will hold Ohio.
Mclean does not think that editor IS
right, and is counting confidently upon
getting a very large support from the
Germans ON the antiimperial issue. No
body knows what will be the result.
The Germania, of Milwaukee, is the
leading German Republican paper of
Wisconsin, and is also the recognized
organ of the vast German Lutheran pop
ulation of Wisconsin. 1t represents not
less than 10000 or 10000 voters whose
ballots constitute the Republican major
ity of that State. 1t led the revolt of the
German Republicans of Wisconsin in
1890 against a bigoted school law, aud
the result was that the Democrats car
ried the State in 1890 and i'm 1892 A
similar revolt in the Presidential election
next year would prevent Mckinley from
receiving the electoral vote of Wisconsin.
The Germania, after hearing McKinley's
speeches in Wisconsin last week, gives
notice that the Germans are against him
on imperialism and militarism.

He Thinks Imperialism Will Cause Big
Democratic Gains.

After finishing his campaign in Ken
lucky and Ohio, Mr. VIM. j. Bryan said:
line campaign, as far as j am able to
judge, has been a vigorous one, and
Democratic success cam be predicted in
both Ohio and Kentucky. / should feel
disappointed if we lost either ONE OF
them. The same bright prospect rs to be
seen in Iowa and Nebraska, and l
wouldn't be surprised il all four States
were carried by our party.
1.-THE question of militartism and inn
perialism is large factor in the cam-
paign this year. Everywhere reference to
American principles of liberty and ad-
herence to the lines upon which this Re
public has been built and maintained are
received by the people with every mani
festation of approval.
'"There is a noticeable disposition on
the part of the German voters to fight
the Republican party because of their
opposition to the ideas and purposes ex-
pressed toward the Philippine Islands. In
fact, the foreign vote is largely against
anything which win set UP militaIism
in this Republic and which will drag us
into the colonial policy of the Old World.
These foreigners cling tenaciously to
American ideas. I'm the country districts
find the current of feeling running
largely against the Republican party be-
cause of its policy of imperialism"

GOLDEN RULE JONES.
II Looks Like Republicans are Most
Afraid Of Him.
Washington Post.)

Columbus. Ohio, Oct. 23.-The RepuIb-
lican leaders in the State are appreciat-
ing the Jones movement, NOW that the
pol1s are beginning to arrive from the
various counties. AT the Republican
headquarters today it was admitted that
Jones would get from 10000 to 100000
votes in the State, but it is claimed that
fully 60 per cent. will be taken from
the Democratic ranks. The Democrats,
ON the other hand, had received up to
tonight the poll of "a out of the So coun-
ties in Ohio, and assert that the Jones
vote lin the Democratic counties Will be
very light A remarkable showing, sand
TO be made by this Democratic poll, is
that Jones has very large following in
the Western Reserve, Republican
stronghold. 1t is evident that both par

extreme anxiety. Chairman Dick today

which Jones acknowledged the receipt

THE SHOOTING SEASON.
Begins in North Carolina With the
First of November.

The shooting season in this State Will
begin November /. 1t lis safe to say that
not in many years have there been more
cartridges. 1t was feared by many
persons that the extreme cold weather
and the deep snow last February would
destroy them. The birds are in all that
part of the State east of the Blue Ridge
and extending to the tier of counties bor-
dering the sounds. From Danyille to
Greensboro, thence as far west as Nor
canton and eastward to GOldsboro there
are birds in abundance. Granville coun>
ty offers good sport, and so does Person.
The Legislature, at its last session, en-
acted a law for a number of counties, re-
ouiring hunters to have the written per-
mission Of landowners when hunting ON
the latters' lands. This was aimed at
.pot hunters" In parts of the State,
mainly in the High Point and Hickory
sections, Northern sportsmen, to very
large extent, pay the taxes ON the lands
and have all the privileges. East Of
Gllilford county this is not done. The
large landowners make things particular
w pleasant for sportsmen, but some of
the smaller ones give trouble sometimes.
