A TRAGEDY

She passed mo in the crowded square,
And on her little face forlorn
caught a glimmer of despair
Her childish brow had never worn.
Yet as she lightly smiled at me
/ saw the old half wistful mir
Still lurking in her sea blue eyes;
For had known her as a child,
And ere she grew SO worldly wise,
When sho was like flower and fair,
We two had wandered, free and wild,
Down hills that faced the sea.
Oh, she who seemed flower of old
And knew each hill and highland place
From April green to autumn gold
saw go through the drifting rain
With rouge upon her childish face
To hide shadow of the pain
And all the aging sorrow therel
Yet with the same old queenly tread
She faded down the darkening square
Amid the night she knew too well,
And like the stateliest flower that grows
sho held her queenly little head
And still, 1t seemed, from that poor rose
An old sweet perfume fell.

mo INVITATIONS
FOR APOSTATES.
Messrs. Farlow, King and
Clark Will Be Among
Banquet Absentees.

The banquet,to be rendered the
Democratic members of the Legis-
lature at Shellpot Park OH the even
ing Of April q, by the Democratic
League of Brandywine Hundred
will not be attended by Senator
Farlow and Representatives King
and Clark. They have not signifed
their intention Of remaining away
because of the 81 fee demanded, but
because they have not been honored
with invitations.
This information was given out
this morning by Martin 4. Smith,
who is experimenting the banquet
arrangements.
n When asked why Messrs. Farlow,
King and Clark would be excluded
from the banquet, Mr.. Smith said
"because of general public senti-
mcnt."
because of the hue and cry that
has gone up over their action in vot-
ing for John Edward Addicks for
United States Senator on the last day
OF the Legislature, the banquet
committee thought that the inviting
Of Messrs. Farlow, King and Clark
tothe function would initiate against
its success" said Mr.. Smith.
He, personally, thought it unwise
to exclude the Democratic members
but as he had no authority in the
matter, he could not extend invita-
tons to the down State gentlemen.
But the banquet will be attended
by nearly every other Democrat of
the State, and certainly by many
Democratic members of the Legis-
\ lature.- Almost five hundred accep-
tances of invitations have been re-
ceived by Mr., Smith and many 9TH
ers are expected this week.
1t is probable that the 'sapostacy'
of Messrs. Farlow, King and Clark
will be literally discussed around
the banquet tables, but whether the
adoption of another set of condem-
natory resolutions will be in order
will be learned at the proper time.
The action of the banquet COM
mittee in excluding Messrs. Farlow,
King and Clark from the invitation
list, has caused considerable COM
ment, and it is believed that when
the information is generally known,
the committee will receive letters
from the friends of the sighted
Democrats, withdrawing their
names from the list Of acceptances.
1t is further said that several prom
inent Democratic members of the
Legislature will head the list of
Withdrawals,

will increase still more in the near

eventually be extended to Freeport

Portland railroad has made important
