OF Youths and maidens flying,

And girlish rosebud faces
Strange figures of the long ago
Come out and take their places.
In stomachers and gay brocades

In buckled shoes and velvet suits,
with gold belaced and braided,
They tread stately minuer,
The courtliest of dances,
And underneath the mistletoe
Renew their old romances.

And snow the landscape covers,
The spirit of the olden time
Around the holly hovers;
Then every shadow TO my gaze
a powdered head discloses,
And all the air is family sweet
With lavender and roses.

They courtesy down the middle;

The spinet and tie fiddle,
The creaking of Il coach and four
Between the pines and laurels,
And footsteps in the frozen snow
That vanish with the carols.

Police We're notified Saturday even

MORE WEYLERISM.

last week we called attention to the
awful mortality in Kitchener's recon-
centration camps in South Africa. At
that time we did not have the figures
to show Just what the death rate was.
Since then blue book has been pub
lished In London, by the British gov
ernment which shows that during the
month of October the deaths In these
camps were B. 1JG. OF these 1888 were
children. In November the deaths
were 2,S07, of which 2,271 were chill
drcn.
This rate of mortality among the
children justifles our prediction that
the race OF Beers is on the way to a
swift exterminatiOn. or course such
frishtful losses cannot be replaced,
and the fact gives color to the charge
That determination Is the purpose Of
the English authorities in establish
ing the camps,
Is IL any wonder that humanity in
grief and alarm cries out against this
brutal work.

TRULY
The Path of Railway
Men Is Thorny.
Every Change In Temperature
Only Adds to Their Trouble.

With the coming of the cold snap,
the troubles Of the railways have been
greatly increased. In the first place
there has been the snow to take care
Of, and this has caused great deal
of extra expense and Inconvenience.
Very few of the trains entering Ak
ron have been on time during the last
AZ hours, although it is said that none
of them have actually been stalled.
During acutely cold weather, the
drawing power of engines is lcssened
considerably, so much, in fact, as to
make difference of four or five cars
in train. This necessitatcs lighter
loads and the use of more time in
transporting freight. Cold axles and
imperfect fabrication are causes of
some of the difficulties while the addl-
tional cold to be overcome i'm making
STRAIN accounts for the rest.
