II had known in. the morning
How YEARLY all the day
The words unkind would trouble my
mind
That l said when you went away,
I had been more careful, darling.
Nor given you neeless pain;
But we vex our own with look and tone
We may never take back again.
For though in the quiet evening
You may give me the kiss of peace
Yet it we'll might be that never for me
The pain of the heart should cease
How many go forth at morning,
Who never come home at night
And hearts have broken for harsh
words spoken,
That sorrow can ne er set right.
We have careful thought of the
stranger,
And smiles for the sometime guest ;
But oft for "our own" the bitter tone,
Though we love our own the best.
An! lips with the curve impatient,
Ali brow with the shade OF scorn,
'Twere a cruel fate, were the night
too late
To undo the WORK Of the morn

New President of Cuba Occupies Om-
 ciaI Residence.
 HAVANA, May 22.-President Pal ma took up his official residence at the palace yesterday and received many visitors, but he transacted no business Governmental machinery and business will remain at standstill during the festivities, which will not close until next Friday.
 President Palma's inaugural message is not yet completed. He hopes, how ever, to be able to send it to congress when the latter meets next Friday. The keynote of the message will be the ne cessity of harmonizing the factions in the. island and working in unison for the success of the republic. The mes sage will be strong in it's expression or gratitude to the United States and of the desirability of the closest commer- cial relations. It will devote also con- siderable space to the necessity of di- yersifying and stimulating the indus tries of the island.
 The only unfortunate occurrence thus far reported was the raiding of several small Spanish wineshops by Cubans.
