Since hats were put together,
Pressed out of felt, woven of grassy plaits,
Covered with chiffon, fur or flower or
feather,
No hats
Have ever quite approached thee. Bank on
that
Triumph, though crushed, o hat!!
Whence and what art thou, execrable shape?
A week agone woman wore
Leghom with gauzy drape
Or fedora,
Or something with q stack
OF violets and things,
Or wings
We couldn't quite keep track
Of all they did wear,
And we didn't care;
Then thou earnest. Thou!
Wow!
And now
We're up against thee good and hard. We
meet
Thee on every street,
Fifty to block.
A rock
Fired in any old direction knock
The latest. They are thicker
Than tomato cans
In vacant lot,
Blackberries or the pulex irritans
On dog, stars in the skies
Or flies
1t came quicker
N scat
That
Hat!
1t is not
That we've any particular objection
To the erection
Not the least under the sun.
1t is none
OF our obsequies. They are not our style,
We should smile
They are not.
We have got
Our little weaknesses-our red
Vests and striped collars, not to mention
The array,
Bright and gay,
Some OF us wear to play
Golf and suppose
That we are "it."
We admit
Brass buttons hysterical hose,
But nothing like that skew
Geed and stupendous strawyard. Nit.
buI IL new
There's no discount on that. Its newness
Is noticeable; otherwise
Its fewness
Would chiefly be apparent, we surmtse.
And being new it is a sort of duty,
Irrespective of beauty
Or any other minor consideration,
To wear one. After all,
Taking it all around-and square
And edgeways-you might call
1t quaint in conformation.
To some tastes there's an odd, lop-sided
grace
About it. Here and there
You'll find face
That looks we'll under it; but then
Some faces would look we'll with anything
On top.
There isn't any wabbly, bunchy thatch
Or ding
Gasted beehive upside down can stop
Them looking pretty and sweet
And good enough to eat.
They can catch
You or me seven days in the week and use
Any kind of lid they choose;
You can't lose
The girl. She's there
! You might swear
She wasn't, that
1t was just hat.
All the same
The hat doesn't count
Nor amount
To one row of pins in the game;
And so, o hat!
Monstrosity of straw,
Headgear acclivous, as we said before,
Wave on! Thou'rt at the bat,
o hiatt!
This is thy busy day
And thou wilt stay
In shoals and swarms and myriads awhile
o hat!
Then pass away.
Hooray! --..s.>,

THE SUNANAER F1ATo
KENNETH
by KENNETH HARRIS.

Hat!
Monstrosity of straw,
Ueadgear acclvous, corrugated,
Bell-crowned, lopsided, fiat,
Round or conveX-topped, whoever saw
Thy like? What milliner with mind dis
eased created
Thy varied similarity of amazing shape?
o jape,
Jocund burlesque of centuries of hats!
Thy brim asllew, aslant and tilted,
Seems wilted,
Warped, out of joint, oblique,
That's
What, 0 sway-backed freak
And fantasy of hats!
Thy serrate battlements do sag,
Thy general effect
Is of a most hilarious complex jag
When we reflect
On thy misshapen, many-sided plan,
Thy sines and cosines and hypotcnuses
And arcs, it makes man
Come near to lose his
Senses. Reason reels
And totters on her throne. We wonder
Gazing upon thy northeast elevation,
Story on story, if it feels
As it looks-like thunder,
Or all creation!!
And yet,
0 hat,
Errat-
Ic, thou hast charm. What though
Thy Brobdingnagian crown is twisted
And listed

This week the members of the local
freight agents association. accompan-
led by their families, leave for Norfolk,
Va. The national meeting of the
agents will be held in that city from
June 18th to 18th, and all the principal
cities in the United States will be rep
resented. The association here has
been rendered special train and free
transportation for themselves and
families by the Southern railroad. The
train is to leave. Cincinnati en- the
morning of the 18th, and will take the
party through the States of North and
South Carolina. Stops will be made at
all points of interest and the members
will be shown a real good time In
leaving Wheeling the party will nearly
all use the Ohio River to Kenova and
the c. & O. to Cincinnati. In return
ing the members will all come by diff
ferent routes. The meeting adjourns
ON the 18th, and after that each agent
can go where he pleases. 1t is not I'M
likely that Wheeling will be favored
with one of the offices at this meeting.
Mr.. j. V. Braden was the secretary of
the association one year, and it is said
that there is chance of him getting
one of the higher Offices this time. 1t
is also possible that Wheeling may be
selected as the place for holding the
next meeting. The association will
make bid for it, and if they are sue
cessful the other members in the diff
ferent cities will be given a royal well
come here next year
The following piece of poetry has
been taken from the June number of
the Book of the Royal Blue, published
by the B. & o. railroad. 1t is dedicat-
ed to the road by Miss Louise Malloy:
THE RHYME OF WILLIAM BLUE.
William Blue
Was an engineer true;
on the great trunk line he hauled freight
through
Of the world famous B. & o. Royal Blue,
And his engine-his pet-was Fourteen
Two.
One night as Ger the track they flew.
Poor Bill got in an awful stew,
For all at once boiler fue
Got wrong, and out it loudly blew.
So Bill, with all his work to do,
Was stalled for true,
The line blocked, too,
And dismally groaned poor Billy Blue,
Well here s a pretty how-dye doi'
He sent report, as 1 tell you:
Fourteen Two blew out hue;
What'll | do?
Bill Blue
Then made remarks quite warm, a few,
For he thought to his job he'd bid adieu.
They called, Bill Blue,
Here's a wire for your
And he read:
Bill Blue:-
You plug that flue
In Fourteen Two,
And pull her through
Get out of the way of Twenty-Five"
Bless my luck!-D- that fiue.'
Said Billy Blue,
AS he got out of the way of Twenty Two.

Wheeling Interests.
Mr.. Frank Swift. formerly proprietor
of the Hotel Brunswick, arrived home a

he and his brother are looking after

owned by Wheeling capital 1t is I'M

Mr.. Swift talks in glowing manner
of the mineral wealth of the south
west corner OF Missouri. The lead
mines have been operated there for sc
years, but a recent sharp advance in
the price of lead and zinc resulted in an
investigation by capital, which resulted
in the discovery that the Joplin ter
ritory could be made infinitely more
productive than heretofore There has
been rush into that locality. like the

SUNDAY EXCURSIONS.

Sunday excursions are proving a pay
ing investment so far this season. On
the B. & 0. the Pittsburg train brings
a great many people to this city eacn
week. The same can be said for the
Grafton and Wheeling accommodation.
The company recently announced that
excursion tickets would be sold on
Sundays only from all points to Wheel
ing at one fare for the round trip This
has had the effect of bringing many
people to this city who were not eligi-
bic to the cheap rates before. On the
Wheeling and Lake Erie excursion
trains are run and the company so far
has had an excellent business. The
Ohio River so far has not reduced the
rates for Sunday eXcursionists, and as
a result the steamboats, seem TO be
handling nearly all the Sunday travel.

BOOK OF THE ROYAL BLUE.

The Book OF the Royal Blue. June
number, has just been issued by the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad. 1t is as
usual very interesting throughout and
contains the following illustrations:
Point of Rocks, fac-simile Of the rail-
road ticket used By Admiral Dewey
from Washington to San Francisco on
his way to the Philippines; Cheat river,
near Rowlesburg; glimpses of Deer
Park and Oakland; glimpses of Cheat
river valley; views of the road be-
tween Piedmont and Altamont; skirt
ing the Potomac river; glimpses of
Cranberry Grade and falls; the his
toris Potomac: the famous Seventeen
Mile Grade; the Royal Limited the
finest train in the world; one of the new
steel hopper coal cars, and loading q
whaleback at Sandusky, o. These
views are all nicely arranged and must
be seen to be appreciated. Copies of
the book are at the city ticket office for
free distribution.
