1.-THE following poem, by Clinton Dan
gerfield, is reproduced, by permission,
from advance sheets of the November
Century,:
Not for the silent chief whom death
Gently and sedulously keeps
Within splendid calm; naught mars
His well-won laurels where he sleeps.
! Rather for him who newly stands
Half startled on a slippery height,
Like a strong falcon which some hand
EMBODIED rudely, whom the tight
Floods unforeseen, but who shall prove
| A wide winged strength For him we
pray:
Give him such wisdom swift and keen
He shall restore US yesterday!
