THE CRY OF THE DREAMER.

am tired Of planning and toiling :
In the crowded hives Of men, q
Heart weary of building and spelling
And spelling and building again, T..
And long for the dear old river =
Where dreamed my youth away, ;,
For q dreamer lives forever,
And toiler dies in day. ~ q,
I am sick OF the snowy seeming,
OF life that is half lie, =:
OF the faces lined with scheming
In the throng that hurries by.
From the sleepless thoughts endeavor q
would go where the children play 4rA
For dreamer lives forever,
And thinker dies in a day. -,
! can feel no pride, but pity,
For the burdens the rich endure;
There is nothing sweet in the city !
But the patient lives Of the poor.
Oh, the little hands too skillful,
And the child mind choked with weeds,
The daughters heart grown willful,
And the fathers heart that bleedsi
No, no; from the streets rude hustle,
From the trophies from mart and stage,
would fly to the woods low rustic
And the meadows kindly page.
Let US dream as Of yore by the river,
And be loved for the dream Away,
For the dreamer lives forever,
But the toiler dies In day.

Snakes Charm and Kill a Horse.

Abram Robson near Grantsburg,
Ind, while hunting a stray horse
which had been missing for two days
noticed large black snake, which re-
treated toward a cave formed by an
overhanging ledge Of rocks in one of
the high bluffs surrounding his pasture
field. His horse was found lying in
this cavern, but covered by what look
ed to him like mountain of snakes, so
numerous were the reptiles. Robson
fed to his house and secured his shot
gun, with which he returned and open
ed fire until his cartridges were eX-
hausted. After the battle he counted
the bodies of 413 snakes lying around
and over the body of his horse, which
was dead, while many reptiles escaped
in n wounded condition. He believes
that his horse, which was n magnifi-
cent animal, weighing 1000 or more
pounds. had been charmed by the rep
tiles 80 that he was powerless to es-
cane.
