Burns ana Tam Samson.

Tam Samson was q gray haired vet
eran sportsman. who on one occasion,
when out moorfowl shooting and feel
ing the weight of years begin to press
upon him, expressed the belief that the
expedition was to be his last and de-
sired, in somewhat tragic style. that
he might die and be buried in the
moors.
Burns, hearing of this, Immediately
composed his famous elegy. in which
he related at length the exploits and
skill Of his hero, ending each verse
with the plaintive line. Tam Samson's
dead"
Some one having told Samson that
Burns had written poenl-''a gey
queer ane''-about him, he sent for the
poet and in something like wrath asked
him to read what he had written. On
hearing the recital of his exploits he
smiled grimly and seemed by no means
displeased. But" he exclaimed. I'm
mo- dead yet. Robin. Wherefore should
We say that I'm dead?" Burns retired
for a few minutes: then he returned
and recited to Tam the following verse
which he had composed in the inter.
val:
PER CONTRA.
Go, Fame an canter like flly
Through a. the streets an neuks OF Killie;
Tell ev'ry social, honest billie
To cease his grievin,
For yet, unskaithd by Deaths gleg guile,

Samson laughed gleefully and ex
claimed, ''That's no. bad, Robin; that'l
do" and the poet was received once
more into his good graces.-Chambers

TO the sufficiency Of the force now
there to undertake the work. Admiral
Kempft yesterday reported that l4,OOC
men of ali arms were ashore, without
stating definitely where they were. 1t
is not known whether or not the second
expedition directed against Pekin has
yet started from Taku or Tien TSin. In
this state of ignorance as to the mill
tarY situation it is not possible to act
intelligently from Washington in the
direction of adding TO our naval end
military strength beyond the sailors,
marines and regular soldiers already
under orders for China. 1t would seem
that to accomplish effective work some
kind of an understanding must be
reached among the powers interested
beyond the vague one under which they
are now proceeding.
This government has not yet regard
ed the developments as demanding the

possible that the dispatch of slore re-
