DEER IN THE WOODS.
Their Appearance Deceives All but
the Old Hunter.


the Old Hunter.
Next to the difficulty Of comprehend
ing the wonderful senses Of the deer is
that of understanding how one looks in
the woods. Your ideas are necessarily
taken from pictures or from stuffed
deer or tame ones in park. You are
almost certain to be looking for deer,
whereas you might better be looking
for anything else. In the woods you
seldom see half Of deer and generally
much less, often only part Of the
shoulder, or only an ear over log or
leg under it, bit Of rump projecting
from bush or head and bit Of the
neck reaching up for leaves. The ar
cade of maple lit up by the scarlet Of
the ginseng and bush cranberry, the
little arbor where the wild hop is vel
lowing over the thorn apples on which
half dozen ruffed grouse are taking
their breakfast, the edge Of the pool
where the trout flashes through the
water over which the chelone is still
the golden petals of the witch hazel
are closing the floral march Of the year
would all make lovely frames for that
charming artists deer with individual
hairs all glistening, the dark dew
claws shining, and even the split in the
hoof flashing artistic light from its
edges. But the glittering tines, the
proud neck Of the sculptured war
horse, the shaggy chest and bullying
rump with tail full Of shining hairs
are not there except at long intervals
when you may rout an old fool out of
bed and get him twisted as to the
| points of the compass.-T. S. Van Dyke

STORY OF A FAMOUS POEM
How Gray's .Elegy" Made It's First
Public Appearance.

How Gray's "E1egy" Made It's First
Public Appearance.
One of the most celebrated of eight
zenith century poems Gray's "Blegy,"
made its first public appearance in the
shape of hurriedly printed pamphlet,
which was sold for siXpence This pub
LEGATION was the result of curious
race for priority. Gray completed the
poem some time in 1850, but had no
immediate intention of publishing it.
A copy, however, found its way into
the hands of Mr.. Owen, the publish
er and proprietor of the Magazine of
Magazines, recently established peri
odical, and he wrote to tbs poet stat
ing his intention of printing it in his
magazine, and asking his cooperation.
The proposal was not at all agreeable
to Gray, but, seeing that publication was
inevitable, he wrote at once to Horace
Walpole explaining the circumstance
and asking him to get Dodsley to print
it Immediately, but without the au-
thor's name. Walpcle banded the
poem to Dodsley on Feb. II, 1851, and
Oh the Goth copy was in Gray's hands
at Cambridge, SO that it YVES probably
published in London on the 18th or
10th. The Magazine Of Magazines for
February, according to the then Gus
tom, was published toward the end of
the month, and may have come out on
the same day. The rival editions must
have appeared, it is pretty safe to say,
within few hours Of each other The
action Of the magazine editor was
hardly justifiable, but 1t laid the read
ing world under debt of obligation
by forcing the poem into print Sew
eral original copies of the "Elegy" in
the poets writing are in existence
One, which was sold for $1,15O at
Sotheby's in 1919, was especially in
teresting from the number of correc-
lions and erasures made by the au-
thor's hand. In this manuscript Gray
had substituted "Cromwell'' and "Iil-
tom for Caesar and "Tully" as he had
originally written. His friend Mason
is said to have suggested this altera-
ton as we'll as the title Of the poem,
which Gray at first simply called
"Stanzas. Golden Penny.

Ruskin ON Humility.

I believe that the first test Of truly
great man is his humility. I do not
mean by humility doubt of his own
power or hesitation in speaking his
opinions, but right understanding of
all the relations between what he can
do and say and the rest of the worlds
sayings and doings. All great men not
only know their business, but usually
know that they know it, only they do
not think any better Of themselves on
that account.-John Ruskin.

Washington. April 1.-The house tO- day passed the Chinese exclusion bill, after incorporating in it several amend ments which increased the drastic char acter of the measure. The principal one not only excludes Chinese by birth and descent but all Chinese of mixed blood. The chief struggle was over the amendment to prohibit the employment of Chinese sailors on American ships. The amendment covering this proposi- tion was ruled out on a point of order but was subsequently, modified to evade the ruling and was adopted by 100 to II.
 As passed the bill practically re-en- acts ali the existing exclusion laws and incorporates with them the existing treaty regulations. It extends these exclusion laws to the Philippines and other possessions of the United States and forbids Chinese labor in our colo nial possessions coming into this coun- try. The Philippines commission, ny the terms of the bill. is directed to adopt proper measures for the enforce ment of the provisions of the bill in the Philippines.
 The conference report on the war revenue tax repeal bill was adopted and the bill will be sent to the White House.

National Live Stock AssOcia- tion Will Keep Up the Fight
President Springer of the Association Intimates That Investments Were Made in the Members of the Sen ate-Says Measure Is Unconstitu- tional,

Denver, April I.-Presidcrt John w. Springer of the National Live Stock as sociation when interviewed in reference to the passage of the oleomargarine bill in the senate said: The live stock in- terests of the United States are not dis couraged at the small vote by which they were beaten in the senate on the olecmargarine bill. We had hoped to beat the bill in the senate, and we ex- pect to defeat il before we are done with it. It is the most vicious measure in principle ever voted on by the American congress. and we shall con- test the matter in the house, where the bill now goes, in conference, and be- fore the president, and if forced to do so. through the supreme court of the United States.
 If the senate of the United States can by narrow margin of eight votes enact a law which strikes down one in dustry which has been built up under federal enactment, to directly benefit the creamery trust of the United States then any other one industry can be singled out for destruction. and it would only be necessary to spend enough money and threaten enough congressman and senators with the far mer vote to completely encompass the annihilation of any American industry The live stock people of the United States firmly believe that the supreme court will never uphold such d prin- ciple'
