The Stage Villain.

Under the painted canvas Tree
The wicked villain stands,
With blue-black whiskers on ms lace
In coarse and shining STRANDS,
And cleaning daggers tensely helu
In both his sinewy hahos.
His records bad and black and long,
He's swanted" everywhere,
Detectives crack are on MS track'
Yet never find his lair,
Until. lust as the curtain rams,
They land on him for tar.
Act in. act out, he mains and Stays
And lies and robS and steals,
He sneaks along with dagger drawn
Behind the hero's heels,
And vet no crime, however loui,
His purpose dark reveals.
The children coming home from school
A millionaire's, of course
He rags and binds and carries OH
Upon charging horse. =,
And though they howl and plead and wall,
He never shows remorse.
In fact, he says but little, save
When some deep plan is spoiled,
When some bold hero lands the girl
For whom the Villains tolled
He growls between his close-cllnched teeth
In awful accents, 'F-f-f-t-tOlled.
He goes on Sunday to the church,
And prayS both loud and long,
And lifts his large and deep bass voice
In spiritual song;
For playing the church-member dodge
Is where he most is strong.
Killing, destroying, embezzling,
Through every act he goes;
Each moment sees some neW-formed plan
To add to human woes;
Something attempted, something done,
Has foiled his many foes.
Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy friend,
No longer will we lack
The means to trace a villain down
And catch him in his track,
Well straight pursue all deep-voiced men
Whose whiskers are blue-black!

In School Days.

Still sits the schoolhouse by the road,
A ragged beggar summing;
Around it still the SumachS grow,
And black berry vines are running.
Within, the masters desk is seen
Deep scarred by raps official;
The warping floor, the battered seats,
The jacknife'S carved initial;
The charcoal frescoes on it's wall;
Its doors worn sill, betraying
The feet that, creeping SLOW to school,
Went s1orming out to playing.
Long years ago winter sun
Shone over it at setting;
Lit up its western window paneS,
And low caves icy frettlng.
1t touched the tangled golden curlS
And brown eyes full of grieving
OF one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving.
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favor singled;
His cap pulled low upon face
Where pride and shame were ming led
Pushing with restless feet the snow
To right and left he fingered
AS restlessly her tiny hands
The blue-checked apron fingered.
He saw her lift her eyes; he felt
The soft hands light caressing,
And heard the tremble of her voice,
A if fault confeSSing.
''I'm sorry that | spelt the word
| hate to go above you,
Because''-the brown eyes lower fell
because. you see, love you!'
Still memory to gray-haired man
That sweet child-face is showing.
Dear GIRL the grasses on her grave
Have forty years been growing.
He lives to learn, in life's hard school,
How few who pass above him
Lament their triumph and his loss,
Like her-becauSe they love him.
John u. Whittier.

The Cod Fisher.

Where leap the long Atlantic swels,
In foam Streaked stretch of hill and dale,
Where shrll the north wind demon yells,
And filings the spindrft down the gale;
Where, beaten 'gstinst the bending mast,
The frozen raindrOp clingS and cleaveS,
With steadfast front for calm or blast
His battered schooner rocks and heaves.
To some the gain, to some the loss;
To each the chance, the risk, the fight
For men must die that men may live
Lord, may we steer our course Alright!
The dripping deck beneath him reels,
The flooded scuppers spout the brine;
He heeds them not, he only feels
The Juggling of d frightened line.
The grim white sea-fog DER him throws
Its clammy curtain, damp and cold;
He minds it not-his work he knows;
IT'S but to fill an empty hold.
Oft, driven through the nights blind wrack,
lie 1eelS the dread berg'S CHASTITY breath,
or hears draw nigh, through walls of black,
A throbblng engine chanting death.
But with a calm, unwrinkled brow,

For storm and ice and liners bow
These are but chances of the trade.

With straining eyes that search the sea
A watching woman waits her man.

But work is work, and bread is bread;
And though men drown and women weep,
The hungry thousands must be fed.
To some the gain, to some the loss;
To each his chance the game with Fate;
For men must die that men may live
Dear Lord, be kind to those who wait!

The Footpath and the River.

A silver line the river flows
Past hills and wooded holowS,
And everywhere the river goes
The little foot-path follows.
The river is a sun-bright thing
A child of mist, and laughter
She little heeds the following
OF that brown foot-path after;
But in and out, and all about
The foot-path tries to reach her.
To join her errant, frolic rout-
The lovely, laughing creature.
With pouts and dimpes becls and smiles
Her face is all a-quiver,
She haa hundred winning WileS,
Thsr bling, winged river.
To her the wood-thrush MARBLES free,
A boye her skim the swallows,
So many love her-why should she
Heed the foot path that foloWs2
The sun comes down and kisses her,
He sets her all a-glmmer
With diamonds flash and jewels stir
And robes of rainbow simmer.
Here grow the feathery ferns in beds
To deck her.mantle'S edges
y starry fringe of arroW-headS
Shines white among her Sedges
The very stars of heaven bend down
And in her depths repeating,
Like golden clasps upon her gown
They move with her hearts beating
And then the music of her tongue
That liquid laugh of water,--
She sings the very songs she sung
OF old when Daphne taught her
SO sweet She laughs, so undismayed
She glides past hill and hollow,
No wander that thrpuUh shine and Sba1l
The footpath still will follow;
When sun and wind and birds all WOO,
When stars stoop down above her,
What can a little foot-path do
But follow her and love her?
And she may smile and jest and vow
That he shall never find her,
May wreath the mist about her brow
And never look behind her.
But where her leaping heart beats fast
With tumult all a-quiver,
beneath the great elm-tree at last
The footpath finds the river
No more to seek, no more to roam,
lie springs to her embraces,
10 ind her fair breast all a-foam
With milk white marriage laces.
An Grant thing, vagrant thing
Love may be, ever moving
a wild bird always on the wing,
Yet there is hope in loving;
And Love may flee by night and day
Past airy height and hollow,
And ne'er be caught-but all the day
The winged heart must follow.
Who follows Love with single mind,
All loving things shall greet him.
And in some oharm'd hour he may find
That Love will turn and meet him.

End of a VIII aler.

CHICAGO, Feb. 26. After years of
rough service in the North Atlantic,
the ship Progress, launched in New
Bedford in 1900 for the whaling trade,
met an inglorious end last evening in
the South Chicago Harbor.
Since the Worlds Fair, when the
Progress rode the waters of the outer
lagoon equipped as model whaler the
ship has been moored in the South
Chicago Harbor. Some unknown per
sons set fire to the vessel and she burn
ed to the waters edge, no attempt be-
ing made to extingllish the fire.
The remnant of he old whaler will
be blown to pieces by dynamite, as the
fire left enough of the wreck to prove a
menace to navigation.
