About his brow are clustering curls-
Curls with golden tint.
His eyes are bright, and In their light
I always find a hint
OF triumph when he looks at me
And smiles in his witching way.

The woman love know loves him:
Her manner tells me 80.

see the telltale glow
OF love as strong as the years are long
And as deep as the mighty sea,
And often wonder which she loves best,
My charming rival or me.
My rival and are the best Of friends.
He will tell you so.
The tender heart Of the woman we love
Is faithful to both. we know.
No Jealous pang nor envious thoughts
Have disturbed my dream of JOY,
For the woman long since became my
wife,
And my rivals our baby boy.

a Song OF Love.
Lady my love for thee
Is glad revelry
OF sweetest ecstasy
Akin to pain.
AS the wild surges roll,
Defying all control,
So love strives in my soul
Thy love to gain.
Swift as the eagles flight.
Strong as the lions might,
Sure as the day and night,
Pure and free.
So would to thee fly.
So live for thee or die,
Breathing with my last sigh
Loves fealty.
Every day brings ship,
Every ship brings word;
Well for those who have no fear,
Looking seaward we'll assured
That the word the vessel brings
Is the word they wish to hear.

DIED OF HIS INJURIES.

Yesterday nergo man was brought
to the Gnlf and Ship Island hospital
in an unconscious state of mind. Last
Tuesday while working around the
saw mill at Mize he got crushed be-
tween some logs. After finding that
he was growing worse he was brought
to this city, but died last night about
o'clock. As he was unconscious
he could give no account of himself
or his name and therefore nothing is
known of him.

one thing | was mistaken Al that
time looked upon the words lana
pirates 'swindlers,' and thieves, ap-
piled to the promoters and managers
of great combinations of capital as
somewhat exaggerated. But since II
has been judicially determined in the
courts of the state of New Jersey that
one Of these combinations was an ar
tistic swindle' and considering What
has occurred in connection with many
others, am forced to the conclusion
that the words you used were the
correct ones and they expressed the
truth as no other words in the Engilsn

took advantage of the ignorant to

HOW TAMMAnY WON

There have been columns written
about the Tammany victory in New
York, but the real facts in the case
have been covered up. While Tom
Platt and his machine ostensibly sun
ported Low. there was a secret dea,
between the two machines by which
several thousand republican votes were
thrown to Tammany. The two old
machines worked together in New
York exactly as they did in Cleveland
and Cincinnati. O. Then there was an
other thing that none of the papers
nave mentioned. Under Tapmanv

THE HEAVENLY TWINS

Senator Dietrich has been indicted
by a United States grand jury for
conspiracy, bribery and several other
things of like nature. All these facts
were in possession of The Independent
long before the election. 1t did not
say anything about them for the fol-
lowing reasons: Had the facts been
published during the campaign, every
subsidized republican editor in Ne
braska and elsewhere would have de-
ncunced them as lies and a psychol-
ogical effect would have been worked
up all over the state and country that
would have made his indictment inn
possible. That was the case with Mil
lard, the other heavenly twin, they
both being the product of the repub-
lican redemption" Of Nebraska. The
only reason why Millard escaped and
Dietrich has been caught, is because
Dietrich Is an ignorant, clumsy, I'M
