BEFORE THE GATE.

They gave the whole long day to idlt

To fitful song and jest.
To moods of soberness as idle. after
And silences. as idle, too, as tn,

But when at last upon their way re
turning.
Tacituru, late and loath.
Through the broad meadow in the
sunset burning,
They reached the gate, one fine
spell hindered both.
Her heart was troubled with subtle
anguish
Such as but women know
That wait, and lest love speak or
not. anguish.
And what they would, would rather
they would not so;
Till he said-man-like nothing COM
pretending
OF all the wondrous guile
That women won win themselves
with, and bending
Eyes of relentless asking on her

"Ah. if beyond this gate the path
united
Our steps as far as death.
And l might open it His voice. af-
frightCG
At his own daring. faltercd under
his breath.
Then she-whom both his faith and
fear enchanted
Far beyond words to tell.
Feeling her woman's finest Wit had
wanted
The art he had that knew to blum

''ShaH we not be too late
For tea?" she said. I'm quite worn
out with walking:
Yes. thanks, your arm. And viii

Tanner Would Not stoop To 1t.

John Il. Tanner WAS hard task
master in politics, and he controlled
this same committee two years ago
when he fought Cullom. Men went to
him and urged him TO take all the
Judges and and clerks and chaileng-
crs and watchers. but. strenuous as
Tanner was in politics. ne could not
entertain the proposition for an in
stant. The Judges and all the other
officers around the polling places
were equally divided between the con-
tending factions. The matter was
fought to finish in both county and
state conventions. The republicans
got together and carried the whole
business. Even Mack Tanner rebelled
the other day al this idea of taking
all the Judges and clerks. He knows
the action is too piratical and that it
will result i'm the loss of Sangamon
county and the district. too. but he
was bowIed down by Yates repre-
sentativcs.
