immigrate it is most generous and
beneficent. They leave their homes

land upon our shores they become in
telligent and wise. A miraculous trans

Miami, Fla, Sept. g. The tropical
hurricane which has done considerable
damage on the islands of Jamaica and
cuba. struck the Florida coast Wednes-
day the wind at one time reaching a
velocity of nearly one hundred miles
On hour. 1t is feared the crews of at
least two vessels were swept overheard
about thirty miles south of here. No
damage was done at Miami. The tele-
qraph wires were blown down and this
part Of the country was shut off from
the outside world from Wednesday
night until last evening. The barken-
tine Culboon. Capt. Richards, of st.
Johns, N b.. laden with a big load OF
fine lumber, is ashore five miles south
of Casyfcot light, about thirty-five
miles south of here. She is water
logged. The Culboon was driven by
the force of the waves over one of the
reefs forming the inner passage and Is
living in twelve feet of water. Nothing
has been heard of her crew. The Gull
boon encountered the hurricane on
Wednesday morning. At 1920 after
losing her rudder and nearly all her
canvas, the vessel was hurled upon the
rocks. The vessel and cargo may be
saved. The Culboon sailed from Pas
cagoula, Miss, Aug. %, and was bound
for Rosario, Argentine Republic.
Three miles south of the Culboon is
deserted lumber-laden bark which
stranded during the night of the 5th.
The crew. it is feared, was swept over

The Old Friends

Exchange.]
Where are they scattered now
The old, old friends?
One name her dwelling where the naples
grow,
And mighty streams through solem for
ests flow;
Yet never from that pine crowned hand
of snow
A message sends.
Some meet me oft amid
Lies common ways,
And then, perchance, word or smile
declares
That warm hearts throb beneath their
load Of cares;
For love grows on, like wheat among the
tares,
Till harvest day.
But "some are fallen asleep
The words are sweet;
Oh, friends at rest beneath the blessed
sod,
My feet still tread the weary path We trod,
Ere yet your loving souls went back to
God;
When shall we meet?
Oh, then, divinest Friend,
When shall it be
That I may know them in their garments
white,
And sec them with new and clearer
light,
Mine old familiar friends made fair and
bright
Like unto thee?
