THY SPIRIT WALKS WITH ME-.

I know thy spirit walks with me.
Else why should 1,
So often, often think of thee.
So tender and SO true to me,
In days gone by?
When springtime gladness fills the
land,
In autumn scar.
On misty moonlit summer night,
When winter skies with stars are
bright,
Then thou art near.
The wild birds sweet and plaintive
note
From leafy dell,
The voice Of waters soft and low.
Where pebbles stay their onward flow,
The Sabbath bell.
The glow which falls from sunset skies,
Across the sea,
The perfume borne by passing breeze,
From lightly shaken flowers, all these,
Bring thoughts of thee.
1 know thy spirit walks with me,
And glad am l,
To feel that now thou knowest full
we'll
The love my lips refused to tell,
In days gone by.

tho Mining and Mechanical Institute
will have as its guest at the closing
exercises tomorrow evening a man
whose visit to our town is an honor
which the townspeople ought to show
their appreciation OF by attending the
opera house in large numbers.
The work OF the Institute alone should
cause sufficient pride in our people to
crowd the building at the coming event,
but if the pupils efforts do not possess
the required magnetism the presence of
so eminent man as Ex-Governor Pat
tson should appeal to our citizens to
make tomorrow evening an occasion
that will reflect credit upon Freeland

STRAY THOUGHTS,

Who are the most Objectionable in a
car-the women who spread their
gowns over too much sitting space or
the men who barricade the isle with
their feet?
Do not always Judge too harshly a
householder by the pictures on the
walls. They may have been gifts from
persons that he or she couldn't afford
to offend, and so offended their own
taste instead.
The wisest woman will sometimes
show her weakness when 1t comes to
the question Of consulting fortune
teller.
The reason many a man does not
marry is that he is too much engaged.
1t doesn't matter IL beauty is only
skin deep, provided the skin is worn
right side out.
The woman who is told what she
said when she was delirious must feel
a good deal as the sober man who is
informed Of his antics when he was
drunk.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1899-06-01

II it is true, and there does not seem
to be much room for doubt, that the
borough council is prevented by the
deed from erecting covered dancing
pavilion in the Public park, this should
not put stop to several Of the propos-
ed improvements on the grounds.
There is nothing in the deed prevent
ing the borough from cleaning the park,
filling up depressions and placing seats
under the beautiful shade trees.
The people who appreciate the park
and the purposes for which it was given
to the town earnestly hope that council
will not falter in the good work of beau
tifying these ten acres because the
pavilion cannot be erected.
There are other pleasures in life
besides dancing, and If the appurtances
necessary for the latter pastime cannot
be placed in the park that fact should act
as an incentive to the placing there Of
improvements which may be more ele-
waiting and profitable to the town.
The people want the park improved.
They are willing to risk some Of the
public money on the ground.
