The st. Louis Times gives the.
following specimen of poetry.
The writer evidently meant
business. and has "gone on his
nerve':-
stood upon the oceans briny shore,
And with fragile reed l wrote
Upon the sand
"Agnes, | love thee"
The mad waves rolled by and blotted
out
| The fair impression.
Nowall reed. Cruelwave! Treacherous-
sand!
I'll trust We no more!
But with giant hand III pluck,
From Norway's frozen shore,
Her tallest pine and dip its top
Into the crater Of Vesuvius,
And upon the high and FURNISHED
heavens
I'll write
"Agnes, | love thee"
And | would like to any
Dog goned wave wash that out.
President Mckinley has re-
fused to send the Lawshe re
port on the postal irregularities
in Cuba to the u. S. Senate as
/ requested by it. The president
does not want the people know
what his political appointees of
"Papas Sons" have been doing.
The Capt. Clark episode stinks
to heaven and the Alger- Miles
beef affair is Il stencil in the
nostrils of all men. Therefore
he will smother the Cuban deal
if possible.

and fascination that is all their own"
