THE RUCKET.


How dear to this heart are the scenes of nv
childhood,
When fond recollection presents them to
view.
The orchard, the meadow, the deep-tangled
wildwood,
And every loved spot which my infancy
knew!
The wide-spreading pond, and the mill that
stood by it,
TIE bridge, and the rock where the
cataract fell.
The cot of my father, the dairy house nigh it,.
And Zen the rude bucket that hung in the
we'll
The old oaken bucket, the iron hound bucket,
The moss-coyered bucket which hung in
the well.
That oss-covered vessel hailed as a
treasure,
For often at noon, when returned from
the field
found it the source of an exquisite pleasure.
The puIest and sweetest that nature can
yield,
How ardent seized 1t, with hands that
We're glowing,
And quick to the white-pebbled bottom il
fell;
Then soon with the emblem of truth over
flowing
And dripping with GOODNESS, it rose from
The old oaken bucket, the iron. bound bucket.
The noss-coyered bucket arose from the
we'll
How sweet from the green messy brim To
receive it,
As poised on the curb it inclined to NV
lips
Not full bushing goblet could tempt me
to leave it, z
The brightest that beauty or reyelry sins.
And now, far removed from the loved
habitation.
The tear OF regret will intrusively swell,
As fancy reverts to my fathers plantation.
And sighs for the bucket that hangs in
the we'll so
The old oaken bucket, the iron bound
bucket,

THE HARB0R SURVEY.
Oh trman Burton al the House Committee
Odds That an Amendment to the River
and iIarb0r Bill Was Not Necessary.

Oh trman Burton oi the House Committee
Odds That an Amendment TO the River
and Iarb"r Bill Was Not Necessary.
President Roosevelt has signed the
River and Harbor bill recently passed
by Congress and it is now law. 1t
contains provision arpropriatIng
$40, 600 for Wilmington Harbor, S25, OOO
of which will he available July LIST.
The remainder is contingent upon the
city making an appropriation to take
care Of sewage which is said to find its
way into the Christiana River, and rs
no such appropriation can be mate
without legislative authority, it looks
very much as if the harbor will get
only $50, 600 from Congress this year.
The Legislature will be asked. at its
session next winter, to pass bill en-
powering Council to appropriate money
or harbor improvement, hut even if
the bill passes it is hardly likely that an
appropriation can he made until the
beginning of the fiscal year 1904.
The River and HarDor bill does not
contain special provision for new
survey for the local harbor. which tie
Board of Trade and Congressman Bail
had hoped and worked for, but it is
understood that Chairman Burton of
bno ilNci anu IldIuoi committee OF tnB
House OF REPRESENTATIVES. holds that
the general provisions of the bill cover
that work and the harbor will not
suffer because Of the lack o. a special
provision on this subject. Congressman
Ball has seen Chairman Burton in re.
gard to the matter on several occasions
and it is understood that the latter
will write letter explaining the matter
which will he read to the Board OF
Trade.
The River and Harbor bill becomes
effective July LIST.

Paterson, \. j., June S.-This city

a result of the riots number of per
SONS we're shot.
The police did their work we'll, but
they we're SO few in number that they
could make little Roadway against the
mob.
Mills were wrecked with stones and
bullets were fired BY the striking silk
dyers' helpers or other persons acting
for them. There were threats TO resort
to the torch. So far the Mayor hest.
tates about asking Governor Murphy
for troops. Agents of anarchist circles
have been tanning the flames.
A section of the rioters made for the
Bamford home, close by. The police
sought to head them off, and did so,
but Il shot was fired and u bullet went
through Patrolman Robinson's right
arm. 1t staggered him. AS he was
regaining his feet Jagged rock hit
him on the head laying open the scalp.
Supported by his comrades, Robinson
was taken to the Bamford home. The
remaining three drove back the mob
from the house aud the attack on the
mill was renewed. The young women
in the mill tried to get out but we're
driven back, but escaped later by the
rear.
Harry Harris, a reporter on the Morn
ing Call, was at the mill. He was
armed with pistol and had camera
with which he attempted to take a
picture, standing on stoop short
distance down the street. His act OF
training the camera was seen and he
was warned to desist. A moment later
rain of stones fell about him and he
was knocked down. As he fell men
rushed on him and he was kicked and
beaten.
He drew his revoler and tried to use
it, but it damned and was kicked from
his hand. A man grabbed it and fired
at Harris, the bullet entering his chest,
