WHEN THE WAR is OVER.

Charles Carroll Sawyer.
Dearest love, do you remember
When we last did meet,
How you told me that you loved me
Kneeling at my feet?
Oh, how proud you stood before me
In your suit Of blue,
When you vowed to me and country
Ever TO be true.
Chorus.
Weeping, sad and lonely,
Hopes and fears, how vain!
Yet praying
When this cruel war is over,
Praying that we shall meet again.
When the summer breeze Is signing
Mournfully along,
Or when autumn leaves are falling
Sadly breathes the song.
Oft in dreams see thee lying
On the battle plain,
Lonely, wounded, even dying,
Calling, but In vain.
H. amid the din Of battle,
Nobly you should fall,
Far away from those who love .ou'
None to hear you call.
Who would whisper words OF comfort
Who would soothe your pain!
All, the many cruel fancles
Ever in my brain!
But our country called you, darling
Angels cheer your way!
While our nations sons are flgntlng'
We can only pray
Nobly strike for God and country,
Let all nations see
How we love the starry banner,
Emblem Of the free.

WILL STAND BY LOOMS.
Venezuela Would Better he Careful
Or She'll Find She's stuck
Her Foot in 1t.

Washington, March 13.-Regarding
the reports from Venezuela to the eff
feet that United States Minister
Loomis is being prosecuted with a
deliberate purpose to find a basis for
giving him his passports, it is said
here in official circles that it will not
be possible for any such scheme to
succeed, conceding that such a pur-
pose is entertained. 1t is further
stated that Mr.. Loomis has at every
phase of the asphalt controversy and
of the rebellious movements in Vene-
zuela, acted according to precise in
structions from the state department.
Therefore, tits not conceivable to the
officials that Venezuela is ready to
adopt a curse which certainly would
lead to the gravest complications, for
there is no doubt that the state de-
partment will stand squarely behind
its minister in this matter.

THE BATTLESHIP ILLINOIS.
The Nonster Vessel Gave n Good Acc
count of Herself on Her Build
er's Trial Monday.

Newport News, Va, March 49,
"The Illinois is our fastest ship; she
will develop 1925 knots on her official
trial, which will probably take placein
May" said General Superintendent
w. A. Post, of the Newport News ship
yard, just after the new battleship
completed a two hours run outside
the Virginia capes under moderate
forced draft while on her builders
trial Friday.
The weather could not have been
more favorable and the sea was
smooth. No attempt a made to
obtain high speed, but with the mod
crate forced draft used a speed OF
1872 knots was made at one time, with
only 107 revolutions, which is remark
able under existing conditions. The
battleship's foul bottom naturally OF
Grated against developing the max
imum speed, being covered with bar
nacles and oysters and other marine
growth. 1t has been about fifteen
months since she was in dry-dock.
The ship vent out 95 per cent COM
pleted, being further advanced on her
builders trial than any other gov
eminent vessel has been on her Off
cial trial.
