you never thought Of how the
stars glistened that evening as you
looked thitherward and reveled in
the dreams that the moonbeams
brought of your beautiful Anna
bel Lee'g How splendidIy beau
tiful was that star-spangled sky!
How the crescent moon went it's
say westward in indispensable
glory!
But, msybs you didn't g these
thlnRsa Maybe your arm was too
closely drawn about her whom you
loved there in the twilight, at the
gateG But you heard her whisper
you heard the whisper of the
unlocking stars, those silent ssnti-
nels Of the nlght-you got the
goodnight kiss, that was more than
word, and with il you got the
blessing Of God.
Don't you remember how glori-
Gus she was-how radiant7 il
these things You recall not; il
your life, dear reader, holds with
in it no such recol1ections, and
you be passed the monday of
your earthly career, then, indeed,
there is for you no Joy in the world.

The Rambler received his full
share of Valentines. Some coming
from a distance have just arrived,
and others still further off have
not yet arrived, but they are COM
ing aud coming in a hurry, be-
cause we still have a foreboding
of evil and feel as if the worst was
yet to come. What we have e
was bad enough, goodness knows.
We have an idea that we have
seen some of the hadwrit-
ings on those envelopes. They
look familiar. IT we we're only
positive on this point we would
take the next trolly car for Seven
Springs and give the people of
that section an opportunity to at
tend a funeral before we return
ed home. We have turned the
envelope over to the experts in
the famous Molineaux case and
upon their decision hangs the life
of a worthless meddler with other
peoples affairs. Suppose we
do owe everybody in tnwn,
as was printed in that comic
hideous Valentine? It is none
of his business: we dont'5 owe
him anything. We are afraid he
has made a serious mistake in
speaking about what we owe. It
is a sutj 7ct upon which we get
full information over once a
month, and don't care to be re-
minded of it in Valentines.
The Rambler has certainly been
having a hard time this week; with
the foreman sick, the editor-in-
chief attending s'social functions"
in a spike suit most every night,
the printers trying TO talk them
selves to death before the foreman
gets well, and the devil--we mean
the printers "devil'-trylng to
out-mew the Office tom cat, which
is noted for his mewing powers and
the persistency with which he in
dulges therein.
In the midst Of this physical
and intellectual conglomeration-
that sometimes befalls even the
best regulated newspaper Offices,
we have had to take a hand as
editor, compositor, pressman,
engineer, fireman, wood chopper
collector, and soapegoat gener-
ally.
Is it any wonder then, that, at
sight of two cooling lovers at the
gate at eventide, our thoughts
| should take poetic fights back

Some one else has termed am
bition "a glorious cheat"
In all purely selfish and un-
righteous things it is always q
sscheat." but it is not always
"glorious."
The Rambler holds that there
are certain directions whiob ANS
bilious desires take that elevate
mankind, ernobla our race and
make for the worlds redemption.
Whosoever is not given over to
wrong purposes walk these ways.
It is the supreme duty of every
man to acquire a competency.
"To build q home for children

sublime Of human life"
Tt is not naedful to rob and
plumber and deceive:i it is needful
only to be up and doing, aud to
be providers, thrifty, saving of
the earnings OF honest endeavOr.
Desire that takes this direction
is noble. It is iden5ica with the
purpose to do right because it is
right, to deal justly with all
men, to promote the general well
fare; to enjoy the privileges of a
spiritual life, removed from the
corroding and corrupting infu-
ences of The mere fortune SEEK

In his rounds, or rambles. or

JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER

Has Not Dropped Out of the Stand
ard Oil comparatively Gave
Up the Presidency of a Branch.
NEW YORK, February 6.-The Eve
ming Post says:
"a report from Cleveland to the eff
feet that John D. Rockefeller has re-
signed the presidency of the Standard
Oil Company of Ohio, one of the sub
sidiary companies of the trust, gave
rise to-day to the impression that he
has retired from his position in the
Standard Oil Company of New Jersey,
now the main corporation. This is
incorrect.
s"Mr. Rockefeller has resigned the
presidency of the Ohio company mere
ly and will be succeeded by Vice Pres
ident A. M. McGregor, of the New Jer-
sey Company. The reasons for the
change are said to be partly concern
for Mr.. Rockefeller's health and partly
his desire to avoid being drawn into
future investigations of the company's
affairs, such as lately managed by At
torney General Monnett, of Ohio"

Furnished Food for Talk for An
other Day in the House.
WASHINGTON, February 6.-lThe
Philippine question again occupied the
attention of the House to-day, with a
slight depression concerning the war in
South Africa. The feature of the de-
bate was the speech of Mr.. Williams
Miss, who presented an argument
against the annexation Of the Philip
pines which attracted much attention
1t was devoted almost entirely to the
commercial aspects Of the situation
holding that the absorption Of the is
lands would be ultimately ruinous to
the American producers of cotton, rice
tobacco, hemp and sugar.
Mr.. Morris (Minn.) made an ex-
haustive legal argument in support OF
the right to hold and govern the is
lands. The other speakers were
Messrs. Gibson (Tenn), w. A. and
H. C. Smith (Mich.). Cochran (uo.)
and Neville (Neb.). The general de-
bate on the diplomatic bill closed to-
day, and tomorrow it will be takea up
for amendment under the five minute
