The Lights of Home.

There - hope on the darKened highway
Hope for the feet that roam
The black storms cease. and the bells
ring "Peacev
For the feet are nearing Home.
But one. i'm the darkness ever
In the thrall of a mute despair
Ger the hills and dells hears the sweet
home-bells-
Sees the lights in the windows there.
The beautiful lights in the windows
The lights that sing and say:
AT Home is rest for the weary breast,
Where the dark is the day.
After the toll and sorrow
After the storm and foam,
There is ever "A light in the dreary night
In the beautiful windows of Home"
And men with the burdencd bosoms
Leave the heights that gloom above
For the valleys sweet, where the true
hearts beat
For the cots where the Dark sings,
"Lovep'
But out in the ever darkness
There IS still a soul to roam
Who weeps in the nights for the dear
Home-lights-
Who only dreams of Home.
".
Surely the lights are many
In calm. white cot and hail.
Why should they leave one soul to grieve
When there's light enough FOR all!
The ships 10 the tranquil haven
over the wild seafoam!
But ships are lost-by the mad seas
tossed.
In sight o the lights of Home.
What is the sanity singing
OF a beautiful world above
OF a Cross to bear and a Crown to
1t is here that a soul needs love!
We need the breath Of the flower
That springs from the yielding sod
Earths Love we need in dream and
deed
We can leave the rest to God.
VI.
o Home-lights on the highway
Where some must faint and fall
When the day is done shine still for one
Who hath loved you best of all!
Who hath said. in a solemn midnight.
With never a stars faint beams
"If the Darkness still he Gods own will.
shall love the Light in my Dreams"
VII.
Home-lights on the highway!
The flower makes the honeycomb,
Ana the seed in the mold makes the har-
vests gold
But only Love makes Home.
And if ever a dream OF Heaven
Shine Though the darkness fair.
Sing this. HOme-lights: In the lonesome
nights
1t is Love that must lead us There.

THE HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION.
The Papers Read at Yesterdays Ses-
sion at Detroit.


DETROIT, Mich, December 29.-Papcrs
were read at to-day's session of the
American historical Association which is
in session in the convention hall of the
Russell House here, covering periods in
history. in America from 1868 to the negro
question as it stands at the present time.
The first paper was on The opposition
in parliament, 1765-1775,' by Prof w. c.
Abbott. of Dartmouth College. The sec
ond was The undoing Of the reconstruc-
ton" otherwise known as the negro
question This paper was read by VIII
liam A Dunning, of Columbia University.
In brief, Prof Dunning said that the men
who had handled the negro question in
the middle of the century were of strong
emotions and narrow in judgment, labor
ing under the delusion that the abolish
ment of slavery meant the adjustment OF
every obstacle Immediately In the dis
cussion which followed, Prof Albert
Bushnell Hart, of Harvard University,
said that the removal of the negro from
the south, by colonization elsewhere,
would kill the northern whites. The south,
he said, could not live without the negro.
He deplored the lynchng of negroes, but
asserted that if the people of a commune
ty demanded the burning at the stake of
negroes as a penalty for committing hor-
rible crimes, the State should make burn
ing the legal penalty. A number of other
members also discussed the question

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, December 30.
The Evening Bulletin to-day says:
For the past three weeks negotia-
tions have been on foot in Philadelphia
looking towards the control of the steel
tube industry in the United States by
organizing a combination with over
$3.50 100000 capital. Everything has
been kept quiet and nothing
has leaked out on the street,
although the presence of big finan-
ciers and iron and steel magnates
in the ONCE OF ". w Gibbs, in this
city. has aroused various rumors. Mr..
Gibbs was not at his Office to-day and
it was stated he left for Pittsburg last
night and would not return until Mon
day. His secretary denied any knowl-
edge Of the combination.
The Bulletin, nevertheless, has it
from reliable authority that the project
is being promoted, and that w. W.
Gibbs is the prime mover in the affair.
The financial end is being handled by
Moore & Schley, brokers, OF New York.
The syndicate has secured the exclu-
sive license under American patents
to manufacture steel tubing by a new
English process. which reduces the
cost OF manufacture nearly 50 per cent
