THE HERMIT THRUSH.

When twiiight's hush
Falls on secluded wood and lonely hill
1t Is the thrush
Whose song. calm as the night, rihgs
heavenward,
And dies away along the dewy sward.
1t rises free,
And bears serenely down the darkening
day
Life's rhapsody,
The minsling light and shadow Of the
Too sad for joyousness. too sweet for
tears.
vesper song-hird singing,
The calm forgetfulness of joy. too sweet
For wildwood voices to repeat
Is rising skyward with thy song
Whose liquid sweetness fingers long
Upon the night air ringing.
The night is nigh;
The woodland sighs for thee, the breezes
call
Again thy cry
Floats out across the dusk that waits for
thee,
And the rapt strains OF thy rare min
strelsy.
No more thou singest.
To some dark tangle of the forest depths
Thy fight thou wingest:
Where yaulted arches echo to thy tones
The pine tree shivers and the night wind
moans.

Street Car Service Crippled ana
Lighting In Danger.
NEW ORLEANS. Sept. SO. - The
strikc of the dissatisfied employees Of
the New Orleans Railway company
which was started Sunday continues
without Il break. Mail cars are the
only ones moved by the railway com
pany. In the absence of trolley cars
vehicles Of all kinds are brought into
use.
The lncmcn of the New Orleans and
Calrollton Light and Power company
and also the linemen employed by the
New Orleans Railway company. all
members Of the International Brother
hood of Electrical Workers, have been
ordered out on sympathetic strike.
About seventy five or eighty men are
affected by the new strike.
The New Orleans Railway company
has notified the mayor that the strike
of their linemrn will interfere seriously
with the lighting Of the city No breaks
that may occur in any Of the overhead
electric lighting wires or in any of the
trolley wires can be fixed. The trim
;nrrs of the electric light department
can still continue at their work under
the strike order, but these men cannot
mend wires, according to the laws Of
their respective unions.
All efforts to adjust the trouble be-
tween the railway company and the
street car mems union have failed to
accomplish anything so far as known.

in its stead. She refused the substi-
tute and went home in a garment bor-
rowed from Mrs. Roosevelt. All et-

Roosevelt ordered a duplicate. No

cept invited guests Of the highest

Eyes Death Sign wa. :
Ralph. Rrandr.tb

NdfPA Dfan0retb
the Bssndretb the treasurer of
nal street company, at 274 Ca
exar New York, who while being
lined by the physicians Of a life
insurance company previous to taking
out an additional $50, policy, was
warned, through the ophthalmoscope,
that he was in imminent danger Of
paralysis or apople1y, and who was
at once put under the treatment of the
most skilled physicians in Blooming
dale Insane Asylum, with the hope Of
arresting the progress of the disease,
is now seriously i'll at the same insti-
tuition with paralysis Of the brain.
His brother, William Brandreth,
vice-president of the San Miguel Min
ing Company, said that his brothers
condition was serious, as the stroke of
apople1y, which is now hourly feared,
would, in all probability, prove fatal.
Ralph Brandreth, he added, is under
going special treatment still, but there
is little hope Of his ultimate recovery.
Mr.. Brandreth was aware of the
gravity Of his condition when he went
to the asylum, but had confidence in
his ability to conquer the disease. He
observed rigidly the rules for diet and
exercise laid down for him by the ply
sicians, and, up to the time that he
was stricken, rendered them all the
assistance in his power.
Mr.. Brandreth was an enthusiastic
chauffeur. Ee came to depend SO en-
tirely on his automobile that during
the last year he rarely took any exer-
else. He took on flesh at an alarming
rate, but claimed to feel perfectly well.
He decided to increase his life insur-
ance policy $4,000, and notified the
company of this intention, Physi-
clans went to the Canal street Office
to make the examination.
They found nothing particularly
alarming in his condition till they
tested his eyes with the ophthalmo-
scope. The mechanism of this instru,
ment is now so perfect that a physi-
clan can see in the eye indications Of
impending disease before any sign Of
it is evident from ordinary tests.
In the case Of Mr.. Brandreth the
physicians quickly announced that
unless immediate preventive measures
were resorted to, he would very soon
be attacked by either apople1y OF
paralysis. In spite Of the promptnes'
of the remedies applied, he has born
out the testimony of the ophthalmo'
scope.
