When April i'm her gentle mood
And leafy smells are In the WOOD,

Behold this lovely slsterhood.
A spirit sleeping I'm the mould
And tucked about 10y LEAKAGE old.
Opens an eye blue as the sky,
Nor deems that she IL overbold.
Before a leaf is on the tree,
Before ] see a bumblebee, 49,
She hears "a voice, Arise! Rejoice!
And I'm furry vestments greeteth me.
Before the oven-bird has sung
or thrush or chewink found a tongue,
She ventures out and looks about,
And once again the world is young.
Sometimes she stands I'm white array,
Some times as pink as dawning day.
or every shade OF azure made.
And oft with breath as sweet as May.
Sometimes she bldeth all alone,
And lifts her cup beside stone,
child at play along the way;
When all Ler happy mates have flown.
Again I'm bands she beams around.
And briRhtens all the Uttered ground,
And holds the gaze IN leafiess ways
A concert sweet without sound.
Like robins song or bluebird's wing.
or throats that makes the marshes ring.
Are greetings from the heart OF spring.

MILLER GOES TO WORK
Government BoOkbinders Threaten
 to Walk Out.

Washington, D. C., July 24-W. A. Miller. the foreman of the binding division in the government printing office, against whose reinstatement the Bookbinders' union is fighting, appear ed at the overnment printing office to- day and tomorrow will report for duty under the instructions of Public Printer Palmer. The bookbinders have positively announced that they will walk out if Miller goes to work and that the allied trades will take sympa- thetic action.
 The civil service commissioner issued certificate of reinstatement which reached the public printer today aIsd MT. Palmer announced positively that in accordance with the order Miller would return to work tomorrow morn ing unless there was in the meantime an executive order to the contrary which he said was very improbable. He declined to discuss his policy fur ther. and said that he did not believe the bookbinders would walk out.
 Secretary CortelyOu had advised the Bookbinders' union that the charges against Miller are matters for the con- sideration of the public printer as they involve an employe of the latter's of- fee. He also has advised them that the questions settled by the presidents order for reinstatement and the charges of unfitness as an employe now pending are separate and distinct sub jects, the former being regarded as a closed incident.

GREAT DEPOSITS OF IRON.

Baraboo, Wis. July 24.-It has been known for many years that there is d deposit of iron ore in Sauk county, but to what extent and quality was con- jetcure until within the last two years, when the Deering Harvesting Co. be- came interested in the properties. and began development.
 This company is now operating d mine, and a pile of ore containing 5000 tons has already reched the sur face ready for shipment.
 About d dozen farms in the immedi- ate vicinity of the Deering property have been purchased outright, and the prices paid were from $6,OOO to $2O, ,OOO more than three times the worth of the farms for tilling purposes.
 It is estimated that there will be many diamond drills at work in this section this season, and in the near future Baraboo will be the mining cen ter of the state For it demonstrated beyond a doubt that iron of the first quality exists in veins that are inex- haustible.
 Capitalists who are interested in the Sauk county iron mines, aside from the Deering Harvesting Co.,. are the Illi- nois Steel Co.,, M. c. Armour, George A. Tripp, B. C. Dean. Chicago; Charles Wild. F. A. Philbrick. Herman Groto- phorst and others. of Baraboo

EXCLUDE CONFIDENTIAL MAN.
Officers Say Young Englishman Mny
 Not Enter Country.

New York, July 24.-William F. Vizer. who came here to found a branch for the Produce Brokers Co. of London in Savannah. is held at Ellis Island.
 The contract labor laws provide that aliens entering this country under con tract, and whose passage to this coun- try has been raid by the person or per sons to whom they are under contract. shall be excluded. The young man ar rived here on July 15 on the Majestic as first-class saloon passenger. He was sent to Ellis Island by orders of tho contract labor inspector. Upon his own testimony. in which he acknowI- edged that his employers had paid his passage, and that he was under con- tract to them, he was excluded and or dered sent back to London.
 The young man asked for a rehear- ing. which was granted to him yester- day, and although he established that he was engaged by the firm in a confi- dential capacity and not as a skilled workman, he was again excluded Vizer has appealed against this decis- ion, and the case will now go before the Washington authorities.

Body of Leo Will Be Hidden
 Away this Evening
THE BELOVFD'S FACE
Was Gazed Upon by nany Thousands YeSterday-The Remains Will Be Inferred Later To Be Removed to Their Final Resting Place.

Rome, July 24.-Again today the body of Leo XIII lay in state in the basilica of St Peters and about S0,00O people passed before the catafalque during the day. This probably is a slight increase over the number who viewed the re- mains yesterday and the augmentation was doubtless due to the widely cir culated reports that today would be the last upon which the public would have an opportunity of looking upon the body of the beloved pontiff.
 These reports proved to be baseless and the body will continue in the chap el of the sacrament at least during the greater part of tomorrow. The fears expressed by the vatican authorities concerning decomposition appear to be exaggerated.
 With impressive ceremonies the body will be inferred tomorrow evening in a sarcophagus at St. Peters, where it will remain until taken to it's final resting place in the church of St. John Lateran. Italian soldiers again today preserved order inside of St. Peters. where they was a repetition of the scene and crowd which occurred yes terday.

COTTON IS SHORT
The Crop of the Year Will
 Be Below the Average
A Late Season Is the Only Thing on Which to Base hope-hany Ad- verse Conditions.

New York. July 24.-keports from the cotton growing states make the fact plain that the crop of 1903 will be be- low that of last year in quantity.
 Existing conditions show it to be fol- ly to attempt to predict with anything like accuracy just what the crop fig ures are likely to be, as the governing factor will be the latenesS of the sea- son. In many sections replanting was general-one correspondent reports three different plantings growing in the same field-but growth now is excellent and steady, weather promises to be fair and the prospect for uninterrupted development is good.
 In several states the fields are unusu- ally grassy, and the weather has hin- dered the elimination of this evil. Dry weather now exists, however. and the grass will soon be hoed out.
 M. V. Richards. land and industrial agent of the Southern railway, whose knowledge of the crop situation is broa dand accurate. writes the New York Commercial:
 Our adVices are that cotton has shown a much better growth during the fore part of this month than the latter part of last month, but is still not up to the average, owing largely to the wet weather during the planting season, and the cool weather since; es- pecially is that the case in northern Alabama, Mississippi and Eastern Ten nessee. In the bottom lands, however, the crop shows up very well, and the prospects arc it will make a good aver age crop in those districts.
 We are advised a great deal of cot ton was planted this year, in labama and Mississippi, on land which had produced a crop of oats, the cotton be- ing planted after the oat crop was re- moved. This accounts for the plant being small in many cases. Replanting also had to be done in numerous in stances"

WANTS PEACE
But Russia is in the Medn-
 time Preparing for War
SHE WILL NOT START II
In the Event of Its Occurrence How ever Japan Will Find Herself To Be Without Material Support.

London, July PA dispatch to Reu- ters Telegram company from St. Peters burg dated July 20. says
 The attitude of Japan and the war like tone of the majority of the Japan csc press have attracted much atten- ton in official circles here. It Is de- clared by the best informed people that there is no likelihood of war. cer- tainly not upon Russias initiative It is stated that Russia has every motive for desiring peace, chiefly for financial reasons in which are wound up a de- sire for extensive domestic reforms which the government considers tO he the most efficacious manner of dis arming internal discontent and nip ping the revolutionary propaganda in the bud.
 Tt is believed to be impossible. from the Russian view point. for Japan Co embark in d contest with Russia single handed, and I don't think she will sr- cure the material support Of Great Britain or the United States Neverthc- less. Russia is taking every precau- tion to strengthen her military ant naval position in the orient believing this to be the best means of discouraE- ing Japanese aggression.
 M. Lessars at the Port Arthur con ference is said to have dealt chiefly with these measures, though they are declared to be entirely precautionary. war being the furthest thing from the wish of the Russian government.

QUITS GAMBLING AT SARATOGA.

Saratoga, July 24.-With every yes tige of gambling paraphernalia remov- ed, Richard Garfield will open in a few days a restaurant at Saratoga. Throughout the entire building, up stairs and down. there is not a trace of the familiar Garfield chips. which in their time have represented past wealth, nor q sign of the massive faro boards across which a thousand inde- pendent fortunes have passed back and forth in former years. Within the last few days, however, the club house has been thrown open for inspection. Access has been freely given, not only to the deserted main room and the new restaurant, but upstairs and down. stairs as well, and it is safe to say that no arrangements for private gambling have been made.

GEAR WILL HEAR OUR PLEA.
News of the Jewish Petition Will Get
 to Him.

London, July 24.-The Times, while admitting that Russia's position in re- fusing the Kishineff petition from the United States is technically consistent and irrefragable. thinks that it will not tend to convince the world of the strength of Russia's case or of her in- tention to amend her policy toward the Jews in the future that she treated an important and temperate expression of opinion from America so summarily It says it is impossible that such a striking demonstration by the govern ment of great people as was afforded by the diplomatic communications should not penetrate the aes triplex of officialdom and come to the notice of the czar, who would not fail to realize its importance.
