THE WORLD OF THE HEART.


Such big, big world with its moving lifei
Such big, big world with it's care and strtfet
Thousands passing us every day
To whom we never say aye or nay;
Heart throbs sounding almost in our ears,
Eyes raised TO ours that are suffused with
tears;
The flag of crime in the dark unfurled
In this big, big world.
Such small, small world of which we are
parti
Such small. small world, the world of the
heart!
For after all has been done and said.
Pages written and sermons read,
The world resolves itself into this
A woman's smile, lovers kiss.
And those two souls in true union wrought
Give to it's bigness passing thought
Little they care for the surging throng.
Crowds never will in their world belong.
They hear the sob and note the sigh
And crime and starvation alike decry.
Yet the tinest planet in infinite space
Would to them be equally as great place.
Love, the magician, has changed it all,
And to them always the world seems small

Guiding the Iowa. The latter was head

yards. As she swung clear of the shoals
at the entrance the flagship Teresa

course. The Spanish shots showered the
Yankee ships, but none struck the
Iowa at that time.
For some time Captain Evans ma
neuvered with the intention of ramming
or torpedoing the enemy, but he found
his speed tco slow. The Teresa had
passed the Iowa, and the Vizcaya and
Oquendo were abreast of the active
Yankee. Captain Evans swung his ship
so as to give the Teresa his full port
broadside, then as quickly swung
around to bring the Vizcaya under the
stan board guns. The Vizcaya got the
full force of broadsde, the forward
guns meanwhile firing at the Teresa.
After deluging the decks of the Vizcaya
with iron hail the Iowa swung again,
and her course lay across the path of
the Oqueudo.
Finding that he could not keep speed
with the Oquendo, Captain Evans shift
ed the helm and lay his ships course

vessels were abeam and about l COO

The Colon, being the fastest cruiser,
was the last in the line, and, keeping
inside the other ships, at first passed

the head of Captain Evans as he paced
the bridge.
In eight minutes from the time the
torpedo boats emerged from the harbor
they were destroyed, and the Iowa's
course was set for the chase Of the
cruisers. The Teresa and Oquendo were
already on the beach or heading for it,
and Captain Evans gave his attention
to the Vizcaya. which seemed bent on
putting about to re-enter the harbor.
The Iowa, initiated by the Indiana,
headed inshore to cut off the retreat of
the Vizcaya. but the alarm was ground
less-the Spaniard was making for the
beach and the reason was apparent
when she burst into flames aft. Her flag
was still flying, and Captain Evans
stood fer her. giving her the full benefit
Of his 12 inch guns. A few minutes later
the Vizcaya was all afame and going
straight on the beach. Tho Iowa ran
up as near to the wreck as the water
would permit. and "Fighting Bob"

attention to the suffering Spaniards on

struggling in the water, having jumped

Vizcaya had stranded about 400 yards
