The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1902-09-09

I And when they all we're gathered in
The roasting should at once begin.
The world would shout in ecstacy {;
From all these fiends we now are free
This is no iridescent dream"
Ho Satan ! Here, turn on the steam
And in that happy time would come
The dawn Of the millennium
For all the peslsy hosts of wrong
Would be in hell where they belong.
Though wet or dry or cold or hot
A place of punishment or not
Who reads my verses must agree
II there isn't hell there ought to be.

WOMAN.

woman, they say,
Win have her own way,
Though TO man she may lovingly cling,
But the treasurers of earth
Cannot equal her worth.
Oh, a woman's wonderful thing
We often have read
What a poet once said
That 1.-THE study Of man should be man."
But man, we perceive,
Other studies will leave
For woman, whenever he can.
'Oh to love is to live
And to have is to give"
And a woman's a wonderful thing,
Though often they say
Man has led her estray
She often has furnished the string.
Man to sorrow Is prone
And should not live alone.
TO love and be loved is but human,
Other treasurers of earth,
What are all OF them worth
Without that sweet treasure-a woman ?
Take women away
And would men care to stay,
Fen though they forever might live,
They would soon cease TO strive
Like the bees in hive
If TO them no queen you should give.
TITS for her sweet smile
That we toll all the while.
Though the truth we but half realize,
Aye II all we're in vain
Did We not hope to gain
Approval in woman's sweet eyes
There are many old saws
About mother-in- laws
And old maids get many harsh filings,
But say what they will
A woman Is still
The dearest OF all earthly things.
Though sometimes we doubt her
We can't live without her.
TITS madness to make the endeavor,
Though oft we deny IL
We cannot get by 1t
We love and shall love her forever.

IN CAMP AT MAckAY.

Christmas in Camp at Mackay
Far in the Western mines,
Where mountains stand sublimely grand
With snow on the dropping pines.
The keen stars shine above,
The valley winds below,
And gbostly white in the moonlit night
Shineth q shroud Of snow.
Christmas In Camp at Mackay
Mid many a score of men
A restless throng that hurries along,
Never to meet agen.
From every land they come
Upon their common quest
Some from the East and some
Were born in the boundless West.
And some are hayward sons
Who left happy home
Seeking for gold In the wide world cold,
They roam and roam and roam.
Some have a sweetheart fair,
Dear girl. for her sweet sake
They came out West TO do their best
And try to make stake"
For there's naught on the earth below
And naught In the heavens above
That sets mems hearts aglow
Like the love of a woman's love.
But some are bearded sires
Whose wives and children wait
And listen and yearn for their return
In some far Eastern State.
What memories thrill the breast,
Oh, dear departed days,
Far in the lonely West
We wend our various ways.
Though tear drops dim the sight
Our sorrows none shall know,
Fall not behind the fight
BE brave--'tis better so.
And still mid music's sound
The glowing goblets flow
With song and jest in the far wild West
With its Winter shroud OF snow.
Christmas In Camp at Mnckay
Mid many a score of men
A restless tbrong that hurries along
Never TO meet agen.

" there Isn't a Hen therc Ought to he.

There is place, so preachers tell
The proper name whereof is hell
Though in the presence OF the ladies
We simply speak Of 1t as ''hades"
From all that's said it really seems
He'll is place OF all extremes
Its hot as hell" they sometimes say,
Its cold as hell" some others say,
Its wet as hell" some one will cry,
While others swear that hell is dry"
But which OF these be true or not
II sill obtains that hell is hot
a place for sinners, lost to shame,
TO roast, red-wrapped in writhing flame.
Yet there are many, without grace,
Who say that there is no such place
That hell IN fact Is but myth
Got up TO scare the sinners with
Yes, there was bold Bob Ingersoll
Who taught there was no hell at all,
But now forsooih that he is dead,
He has learned better, so It's said,
And thinks an ice stand would do we'll
Arushing business, down in hell
But now II really seems TO me
II there isn't hell there ought 70 be,
Or else place there should be made
At least three hundred In the shade
And all the agents OF Belal
Should be sent there TO sweat awhile.
Our Congress could without debate
The needed sum appropriate,
But such place they fear 10 build
Lest II with Congressman be filled.
There are some men who might have cause
TO want to send their mother-in -laws

NAME YOUR FARM.
@Svnnysfde' Sounds Better Than
Old JOhnSOn'S Place.

1t is fad" perhaps, but a very
commendable one, for the farmer
today to give name to his farm
home-a name by which it shall be
known by his friends and acquaint-
ances, and referred to by them with
pride and pleasure. =
The old way of naming farms, by
calling them ''the Widow Brown
place or cold Man Tompkin's
farm" which names often cling to
them long after the persons who
bore the names thus used are dead,
is uncouth and oftimes disrespect-
full. How much more pleasant to
have your home referred to as
"'The Naples, Meadow Brook
Farm or something similar.
Mr.. Carl Heess of Piatt, recently
informed the News Item that he
had given his farm the name of
Spring Brook farm which is
a very appropriate name for that
beautiful, we'll kept home down
on the farm such as the poets
delight to sing about.
The News Item urges that the
farmers name their homes, and
would be pleased to publish the
names selected. We here offer a
few suggestions which would be
appropriate to select from. viz:
The Avon, Valley View, Mountain
Range, Breezy Ridge, The Gables,
White Pigeon, Springdale, Willow
Shade, Shady Pine, Prospect, Maple

Serenity, Crystal Brook, TheElms,

A. AND N. COLLEGE ATTENDANCE.

That the attendance at the A.
and NJ. College is constantly in
creasing is shown by a table of
statistics prepared from the records
of the institution by Prof. Z. S.
Tilson.
From the opening Of the college
in 1876 to the present day there
have been 6946 regular matricu-
lates and 800 graduates. There
was a dropping off Of matriculates
during the years lSS0.Sl, due to an
entire change of the faculty by the
board of director, and another
drop in 1884, due to the fact that
the Legislature ceased to appro-
pirate for the maintenance of State
students. With these exceptions
the increase has been almost con-
tinous. The attendance on May ]
last year was 249 and this year at
this time it is 306. The number
of matriculates last year was $50
and this year 464. Another very
notable and praiseworthy facti : the
improvement in department. There
are Sc men in the corps at present
who have no dement's against
them for the entire term. These
facts were obtained from the
Office of Acting President r. II.
