Christopher's sanity, rather than his
knowledge, which is at issue today.

ROOSEVELT AS A WRITER.
Chicago Chronicle.

Chicago Chronicle.
In 1885 appeared the 'Hunting Trips of
Ranchman,' the first of the books of
sport. Mr.. Roosevelt had spent most of
the time for several years at his "Chim-
ney Butte" ranch, on the Little Missouri
river, near Medora, in what is now North
Dakota, and this book is the record Of
the chase for all the varieties of big
game and fowl that abound in that state
One feels as he reads that this was the
happiest period of Mr.. Roosevelt's life.

To make this forest masquerade
Summon even the solemn frs
To join the ranks of roisterers!

FROM OVER HERMON.

Scaling mighty Hermon's crown,
Oh, the windingS UP and down,
That the dizzy pathway tooki
Now along the eraggy bed
OF Sun-dried mountain brook:
Now along a ledge that led,
By chasm's crunbling brink,
Dropping deep and sheer away
Through the golden Syrian day.
To the dreamy hour of pink
That the oleanders made
Here in sun, and there in shade,
Up and up and up we went.
While a spacious azure tent
Arabesqued with morn, the sky
Hung above US radiantly
We beheld the glowing urn
Of the red anemone:
Nodding mid the parsley-fern,
Saw the poppy chalice burn,
Marked in eyclamen the bee,
Ply his rowing robbery.
Now we stood on Hermons crown.
Where the long-since-riven veil
Hid the sacred shrine of Raal.
Everywhere, outspread for US,
Shone the scene miraculous;
Cinctllred by the rush and reed,
Like a mirror Merom lay;
And a strip of tawny brede.
Jordan wound it's cleaning way;
Lebanon outstretched afar,
Violet and Cinnabar;
And beyond green Galilee
Burned the blue Sidonian sea.
Aye, the, olden lure was there,
Calling through the Orient air;
Waters lucid as the morn;
Blossoms whittier than the thorn;
All the fairest fabrics spun
In the countries of the sun;
Blades and jewels strangely blent;
Altar richly redolent;
Rudy fruitage, melting ripe,
And the bubbling water pipe;
Then, at eve, the nightingale,
&urdened with her deatliless tale!
Such the charm that drew us dowr
From majestic Hermon's crown.
