The light of homes a wondrous light,
So tender in it's shining,
So soft it follows through the night,
Our weary road outlining.
Though lonely and for years we roam,
Far from the ones who love us,
Yet ever shines the light Of home
Like Gods grace spread above us.
The light of homes wondrous light,
Through life it follows, seeming;
Yet when with age the hair is white,
Clear in the front tits cleaning.
1t shines from where our loved ones are.
Oh, this is loves divining!
And through the gates of heaven ajar
At last we see it shining!
Ripley D. Saunders in st. Louis Republic.
The light on the earth-in the heaven
sabove,
Is beautiful, dear, with the smile of Love,
Though thorns we are sowing,
Still roses are growing
And all that we reap is of Loves sweet
bestowjng! +. l.. ).

WHY THE WIND SIGHS THROUGH
THE TREES.

THE TREES.
The soft, gentle, signing, summer breeze,
Which sobs and murmurs 'mong the trees;
Which seems so timid and so mild,
AS gentle as a little child;
Perhaps far out upon the sea,
Was rough and boisterous as it could be
1t may have swooped like bird of prey
Down On some ship which CHANGED its way;
And with its fearful, awful blast,
Rent every sail, and hurled each mast,
Into the frothng. raging waves;
And buried the crew in sailors graves.
Then wit ha shrek, like a demon fell;
Pleased it had done its work so well,
1t fastened away to the shore,
Whistling a tune to the wild roar
or the ocean, with ne'er a thought
OF the pain and sorrow it had wrought.
Then all the ghosts of the murdered crew
Rode on the mist-clouds to pursue,
To haunt and plague the wretched wind
Nor for a moment let it find
Peace from remorse; and day by day.
Pitiless scourged it upon it's way.
This may be the reason why the breeze
Signs and murmurs mong the trees;
And when the suns bright rays have flown
Goes to the shore, there to intone
A mass for the souls of the dead,
With a voice full CT sorrow and dread.

A GREAT FRUIT CROP.
J. H. Hale Says There Will Be Huge
 Peach Yield in This State.

Connecticut will produce more peaches than Delaware this year" said J. H. Hale at his splendid South Glastonbury fruit farm yesterday. ''The Connecticut crop estimate at 100000 baskets. of which 35,0OO bas- kets will be taken from my trees here. and probably 25,000>baskets from my farm in Seymour which is producing this year for the first time." Mir Hale has just returned from his two months of fruit gathering on the great peach farm in Georgia. The peach crop there, he says, has been a fine success. He has gathered and sold 75.OOU bushels of fine peaches, many of which have come to this section. His last carload of Georgia peaches was delivered in Hartford last week, and he had good supply of Glastonbury peaches ready to Hap over" on the Georgia crop. Dur ing the next month there will be steady supply of peaches from the two Hale farms which have yielded most generously this year. MT Hale says that he has expended this year $22, 900 for crates and ice in shipping his Geor- gia peaches northward. Most of the TOO negroes who were employed in gathering the peaches have gone off to pick cotton.
 The Seymour farm is producing it's first crop of peaches this year, and they will be marketed chiefly to the northward on the Naugatuck and Housatonic lines. Large quantities will be sent into Berkshire county in Massachusetts as far as North Adams. It was to be in a position to reach that market that MT Hale established his Seymour fruit farm four years ago. He calculates that the peach crop this year will very nearly, if not quite, aover his entire investment in his 100 acres there.
 . MT Hale says that he does not find so good market to the southward as north of Seymour. New Haven, with over 30 per cent more people than Hartford buys 20 per cent less fruit.
 MT Hale's Japanese plum trees at South Glastonbury are loaded with fruit and he will have an immense quantity of this lucious fruit for Con- necticut buyers for several weeks to conie

SHOOK IN SEYMOUR.
Young Man Claims He Rode Clear I \ Through It on q Bicycle

1HIOuSn u Ou q blcycle.
 Another ghost has been added to the uncanny inhabitants of the town of Seymour, it is reported. This new spookl lives far away from all the others. He was seen in Showkorat Friday night.
 A, certain, young man of the town, after having spent the evening with another. young man, who resides in Showkofat, was on his way homeward when he saw. the apparition. At the time he was on his wheel, and going down grade, which is quite considera- ble, at a high rate of speed. Sudden ly the rider saw, in the dim light of the stars, spectre standing directly in front of him.
 Even the bicycle was scared and baked, but the speed was too great to be checked, and as far as the youth knows to the contrary, they went right through the spirit. He says he turned around and investigated, but what he found he cannot tell.

Special to the Leader.
Bucyrus, o., July S.-Being short in
his accounts with the Adams Express
Company, Guy E. Monnett took carbol-
ic acid rather than face the shortage.
Monnett was veteran of the late war
and had a good record. He was but
% years Of age and on his return from
the war was given employment in the
Adams office. In this position he had
charge of the money packages returned
from G. o. d. packages. Several
weeks ago local firm noticed that the
returns from their G.. o. ID. business
was falling heavily short. An investi.
CATION showed that the money had been
received but was not delivered to the
local firm. Monnett had receipted for
the packages and appropriated the con-
tents. He was given until yesterday
to fix up the matter and seeing no way
out of it suicided. The amount of the
shortage so far as known IS about $500.
The Monnett family is one of the old
est and most highly respected in the
county.

In His Bare Feet Bachelor Write Chased
the lnCendiarieS.

Ravens Eye, w. Va, July Sat an
early hour Saturday the magnifi
cent home of Samuel Wright, a wealthy
bachelor who lives near here, was dis
covered on fire, but before neighbors
arrived on the scene the building was
burned to the ground. Wright could
not be found, and the supposition at
that time was that he had been burned.
Late yesterday afternoon Wright re-
turned to the scene of the econflagration,
and tells thrilling tale. 1t was about
o'clock in the morning when he was
awakened by the flames and the odor
of kerosene was very strong. He ran
from the building, and in the moon
light saw two men standing in the rear
of the house. He started toward them
when they ran to the woods, Wright
believing that they were the incendiar-
| les, pursued them in his bare feet. and
chased them across mountains and val
| leys until almost MONDAY, but was fin
ally compelled to give up the chase a;
