A GARDEN IN TUSCANY.

ThN white magnolia opens with the day
TO look upon wonder world of bloom
As IL the rainbow met its earthly doom
Beside its namesake iris and must lay
Imprisoned bars Of fame and blossom gay
Half hid beneath the olives mournful gloom
The Hex branches weave shadow loom
Across the marbles, where the fountains spray
Drips slow, like cool and unsung melodies,
And through the grass the little lizards glide,
Dazed with the drowsy fragrance of the trees
And love and life lie sleeping side by side,
For where still Eros lures the honey bees
A dark young lad dreams through the hot noon
- tide. st5

FIERCE STORM ON PACIFIC

Astoria, Ore, Dec. 4.-The fate Of the
British ship Nelson, a steel vessel
bound to Queenstown with wheat, re
ported early today as having turned
turtle last night and gone to the bot
tom with her crew of twenty-eight
men, cannot tie known until tomorrow.
BY that time she wiIl probably have
been sighted, if still adoat. If the tugs
which wiz institute a search fail to
ind her, she viii doubtless be given
up as lost. The tugboat people think
she is still safe, but there is cause
Tor the gravest fears.
The Nelson sailed Nov. 25 for Eng
land with a grain cargo She encOun-
tered the gales which prevailed early
sn the week and on Monday evening
was sighted off the river in a disabled
condition. Tuesday morning she was
picked up by the tugs Wallula and
TatOOsh. The Wallula returned to
port for fuel. the TatC0sh starting
north with the Nelson, when a heavy
gale came up.
At s:45 last night, during the height
Of the storm, the steel cable parted
and the lights Of the Nelson suddenly
disappeared, leading to the belief that
she had capsizad. The tug TatOOsh
searched all night and until noon to-
day, but not the slightest trace Of the
shin was found.
Notwithstanding this, Captain Bailey
OF the tug believes the Nelson is safe
and that she viii show UP tomorrow.
He thinks she has made for Puget
Sound, while others are inclined to the
belief that Captain Perriam Of the Mel
son viii make for the Columbia. The
