What lover I'll be.
For I've got such a sweet, winning way.
If see a nice girl in the park,
I'll make for her. just for lark; )
I'll alight on her lip,
And the honey I'll sip, $
But I'll leave behind me my mark
We all have our object in life,
And some live in peace, some in strife;
But live in clover,
For l roam the world over
And am ever kissing sweetheart or wife.
I know it's n criminal act.
But that doesn't alter the fact
That We'll all take risk
To obtain sweet kiss,
But it should be accomplished with tact.
Just wait till her lips are like buds,
And her arms are enVeIoped IN suds,
Then swiftly you take it.
And the bliss, will stake it,

So it's no use to murmur or pray,
For I'll kill fore your eyes,

Ia have been rats, and rewards have

makes great regions uninhabitable for
white men not native born, 1t Is argued
that mosquitoes cause the trouble.
Their bites are considered the main

seen how much connection can be cs-
tabllshed between these microbes and
the larger forms of animal life which
are now believed to play leading part
In spreading various diseases of the
most serious character. 1t Is possible
that some of the smallest creatures

more disposed to worry about Its

MISSIONARY CAPTAIN DEAD.

San Francisco, Jan. 3O.-One of the
best known captpains in the Southern
Seas lost his life on the front yester-
day. Captain Henry Wohler of the
missionary schooner La CroiX du Sud
(Southern Cross was asphyXiated in
the lodging house at as East street
and although he was taken to the har-
Dor hospital as soon as possible, he
had not even fighting chance for life
Drs. Dorr and Davis made a most care
full examination of the body, but there
was not trace of life.
Captain Wihler arrived here from
Tahiti on the French mail boat City OF
Papeete on the 23d inst He was ac-
companied by Paul WeiTe and three ma
tive Tahitians who were to man the
La Croix du Sud. The vessel had been
contracted for by the missionaries who
work among the Marquesas. Caroline
and Tahiti group and when the news
reached Papeete that Matthew Tur-
ner. the builder. was ready to deliver
her to an accredited agent
Captain Wohlor was sent here to bring
her down to the islands. On his ar
rival here Captain Wohler went to
live at As East street, in order to be
near his schooner.
On Sunday he was around the front
with Paul Weile and he then stated to
some friends that he was going to
start for Tahiti next Thursday. Early
In the evening he went to bed. and
upon retiring he must have turned out
the gas and turned it on again. The
only illuminant in Tahiti is coal oil.
and as Captain Wohler has not been
away from the Southern Seas for many
years he had probably forgotten all
he ever knew about the deadly carbon
monoXide. He leaves four children in
Tahiti to mourn his loss. Captain
Wohler was the pilot of the United
State Fish Commissions schooned Al

islands of the Southern Seas
