Thus spake the mystic. the unworldly
heard
There is no night for souls that read
Alright
The problems set of old for mems
unrest"
But knowledge questioned, WHO shall
then reveal
When sages from the text the proper
meaning wrest?"
Then with a full contentment in her
tones
Humility replied by faith sustained:
I'VE hear no sages, nor do challenge
truth.
For all is true when conscience all
controls,
And night by others feared falls not
upon our souls"

Pablo Casals, who Is to appear at
the Worcester Theatre Nov %, has
the honor of being the very last artist
who appeared before the late Queen
Victoria at Osborne. His performance
+ at a concert in the Crystal Palace
created such enthusiasm that the Duke
of SaXe-Coburg -Gotha, who was pres

Prince of Wales, now Edward VII
with the result that the young violon-
cellist received a command to appear
at Marlborough House. AT the end OF

compliments of the future king and
queen of the Britons, and, on the eve
of his departure for France, a hand

after his return to Paris he received
a cablegram from Queen Victoria COM
