O, HOW LOVE KIPLING.

When a mere boy only stripping,
loved the works of Rudyard Kipling;
used to run and dance and skip,
To get a book that was written by Kip
But now he's sick, and I'm awful sorry;
Because his books / cannot borry;
And 1 hope he'll soon get well,
After his bad pneumonia spell.
Now. Mr.. Editor, wish you'd use
This little poem In telling the news.
If you want more, I'll gladly send them,
For tits a pleasure for me to pen them.
No. "Boozie," you needn't trouble your
self to send any more of your poems. Just
save up your stamps and run and dance
and skip down to the store and get you
some new poems of your dear kip" ~

THE LAST WORDS"
(First spasm.)

Yes, the last good bye has been said,
And all the love you had for me is dead,
The sad farewell has been spoken,
But, thank God, my heart is not broken.
l long to see the happy day,
When my love for you will decay,
As your body will when it has breathed
its last.

shame,
Don't you sneer at me, for you are to
blame,
For speaking three words.
Fourth spasm)
The three are, ST love you'-the dearest on
earth when spoken true.
When spoken honest. Yes, as honest as l
spoke them to you.
Hereafter in your conversation, be careful,
dear,
Mean every word you utter, then your con-
science will be clear. "a
Remember that only few false words
spoken
Have caused many happy hopeful heart
to be broken, -f
To be healed never more.
What an excellent outburst of passion and
revenge against your girl for going back on
you! His wounded spirit quickened to ac-
ton, he promises to hasten her doom. The
third spasm contains some passages or
great realism. The idea or planting
kisses on a girls hand and probably ir-
rigating them with ones tears Is very
strong and striking figure of rhetoric. We
must confess, however, that the author is
carrying his realism too far when he adj
rnits that he never shaved before calling on
his girl His advice to girls In the last
spasm is good and will doubtless be follow

SAMPSON, THE BRAVE.

HOW patiently Sampson he did wait
10 crack the Spaniards on the pate.
The Spaniards hid in Santiago bay,
Inc american fleet watched night and day.
The Yankee fleet did Sampson command,
And I'm quite sure he had the sand
The Spanish fleet would not come out
To try the Americans in a bout.
., Sampson, how he did fidge and fret,
For closer to the Spaniards to get
If they'd come out while he was there,
He'd blowed them all into the air
Sampson he studied many plan
For officer to obey as well as man,
SO II the Spaniard dare to come,
Around their ears his shells would hum.
And his command, they'd sure obey,
Be it night or be it day.
1t was a Sunday bright and clear,
The Spanish fleet did quickly appear.
They thought the Americans had no steam,
But SIMPSONS sense 1t was too keen.
They watched till Sampson sailed away
For they feared this man, it's true l say.
The Spaniards the first shot did fire. e
And upon them fell Gods awful ire.
1t is Him you all must praise,
For knocking the Spaniards into daze;
If Schley he does get renown,
Sampson and the gunners with laurels
crown.
The war was not the only subject Cor
poetic inspiration that Alabama furnished
during the past year. The session of the
general assembly just closed offered I'M
usual advantages in this line, which the
poets were quick to seize. The Moody dis
pensary bill was the most popular of all,
