The day pou-r down
Unmingieo b.sathless draughts OF August heat
Out OF the geeat bowl OF the Glazing sky;
IL fills the vfslleys up and overfiows
Across the RIGGS OF the hills.
A stray sylssble tinkle
(Some mlkihg-cow browsing alone along the
thin dry grast)
Passes unanswered.
And sinks INFO the silence and the slumber
OF the untensnted day.
But when the bowl is empty-when
Earth turns her shoulder the masterful sun
The hills draw faint breath and a watt comes
Along the valleys
Comes auivering up the aromatic paths,
Heavily sweet with stirring the hot leaves
Then the m:on's brow breaks slowly from the
pines.
Like a amtSr cloud, but purer:
Earth wondeas at her coming: the dusky hills
Ring TO the ihirrup OF crickets.
Then all Is stsil-the moon
Walking the silent pfney ridges.
Overburdenei with light.

A Unique Picnic.

There is to take place in Miller coun-
ty, Ner, this month what is described
with pardonable excess of superlatives
as a most unique picnic" In 1855 a
man named Wilson died, and was bur-
led in cave with a demijohn of whisky
in his coffin. 1t was his dying request
that at the end Of seven years his cof-
fin should be opened. the demijohn be
brought out. and at the mouth OF the
cave where he lay buried his friends
should gather and enjoy so much dane
ing. feasting, drinking. and laughing
that his spirit would join in the reyelry.
The end of the seven years came just
in the middle OF the civil war. and the
demijohn and cave and Wilson's last
reque~. were forgotten. Since the end
OF the war Miller county people have
been planning to hold picnic at which
the demiiohn should be opened but the
idea has never been carried out. Now
a grandson of Wilson's living at Brum-
ley, Miller comfy. has taken the matter
up and proposes to hold a picnic. to
which all the people OF Miller county
are invited.-New York Tribune.

He further called attention to the fact
that less friction has yet developed in
the establishment of the new Cuban gov

foundation Of the present government of
