Dead, dead! all dead beside the drouth-
burnt brook,
Shrouded in moss or in the shrlVeled
grass; a,
Where waved their bells,-from which the
wild-bee shook -.
The dew-drop once,-gaunt, In mghc-
mare mass, -,
The rank weeds crowd; through which
the cattle pass,
Thirsty and lean, seeking some meagre
spring, -,
Closed in with thorns on which stray
bits of wool
The painting sheep have left, that sought
the cool,
From morn to evening dearly wandering.
No bird is heard; no throat to whistle
awake -.
The sleepy hush; to let its music leak,
Fresh. bubble-like, through bloom-roofs OF
the brake; .,.
Only the gray-blue heron, famlne-weak'
Searching the stale pools OF the MN
nowless Creek
Utter its call; and then the ram-crow'
too,
False prophet now, croaks to the stag
nant air:
While overhead, still as if painted
there
A buzzard hangs, black on the burning
blue.

stated Conditions that would make an
argument against retention are boldly as
sumed. and conclusions are drawn from
these imaginary premises. Mr.. Turner

speaks throughout OF the FIlipinos as

pie. fighting for their liberties. He knows
that they number more than eighty tribes,
differing in race. religion and capacity;
that only one OF these tribes has made
any effective resistance and that others
are friendly

would have required him to send a mes

did not disgust Mr.. Bryan's hearers. and
