HOME AGAIN.

l dreamed the other night
was home once more,
Revealing in the sunshine bright
OF my dear old native shore.
Returned from foreign lands
With the golden lustre of fame,
Shedding with magic's wand
Glory's halo around my name.
l found my home just the same
As when left it long ago.
And the dear ones all came
To greet me with welcomes glow.
The friends pressed so near
My heaat were sweeter than of old,
Absence made us more dear,
And proved us "true as gold"
Fame, however great, never sends
A thrill through the hearts of men
Like the JOY of meeting old friends
In that elysium of love-Home Again.

FIVE MILLION IN
WORKS OF ART
MORGAN's PURCHASES
IN EUROPE DURING THE LAST
YEAR REACH THAT TOTAL.

LONDON, October 16.-J. Pierpont
Morgan's purchases of European an
Equities, pictures and works of art
during the year 1902 will aggregate
$4,000 900, according to Duveen Broth
ers, who are regularly employed by the
New York multimillionarire and his
American fellows in securing the Eu
ropean treasure market.
Beginning with the acquisition of
100000 worth of fifteenth century
Gothic-Flemish tapestry now hanging
in South KensingtOn Museum in this
city, Morgan's recent buyings are
stated to include the most costly selec-
ton of ancient paintings, marbles,
brOnzes, plate, rugs, armor, carvings
and furniture ever secured by an in
dividual purchaser.
Mr.. Duveen said: "As soon as the
United States tariff on works of art is
removed your country will becaome the
richest treasure house in the world.
Such men as Whitney, Widener, Ell<ins,
Yerkes, Croker Gould and Schwab de-
sire to make the United States as pre-
dominant in the world of art as in the
world of commerce."
j. Pierpont Morgan's expenditure on
art purchases evoke unfriendly COM
ment in London financial quarters,
where it is asserted that they represent
ill-gotten gains of stock watering.

THE SHIPPING CoMBINE-
It Causes Apprehension In the Lon

LONDON, April 23-The Standard,
in an editorial, protests loudly against
the shipping combine. While regretting
that the Americans are out-distancfng
the British in industrial competition,
the paper says:
so long as American enterprise is
limited to what our laws and customs
regard as legitimate industry, and so
long as American capital is employed
in undertakings of public utility in
Great Britain, we have no OCCASION for
apprehension. But the shipping COM
bine is quite another matter and con-
Germs the public safety"
Then the Standard demands guaran-
tees that British subsidized steamers
shall not be transferred TO the Ameri-
can flag and urges Parliament to see
that theI proposed arrangements do
not exceed the limits of legitimate en-
terprises -
