Their yearning thoughts would roam,
AS SOFTLY some comrade sang
! The words of Home. Sweet Home -
They remember the solemn roll calls,
And the silent pause that came
When in the hush the sergeant called
! Some missing soldiers name
They remember the days of terror,
| And nights that were long with dread,
| When left alone on the field they
watched
With the dying and the dead.
With ranks that are growing thinner
Each year the soldiers meet
| All day through our streets has echoed
The tramp of their marching feet.
Marching closer together,
Obi loyal ranks of Bluei
In silence deep your comrades sleep,
For the weary strife is through.
Marching closer together,
oh! patient ranks of Gray
In silence deep your comrades sleep.
And strife has passed away.
For both we mourn with loving tears;
Brave hearts on either side.
The memory of your noble deeds
Still thrills our hearts with pride.
And year by year we gather.
With wreaths and garlands gay,
To deck the graves where dreaming lie
The ranks of Blue and Gray.
And the grass shall wave Ger the low
green tents,
And blossoms crown the sod,
When the last brave soldier falls a.
sleep
In the long sweet Peace of God.
Amelia w. Wray, in Harper's Bazaar.
MEMORIAL DAY.
BY the sob of the Southern rivers,
BY the sigh of the Northern hills.
To the tender tune of the soft tattoo,
While the muffled drum-beat thrills
The heart of a common Nation
With a common sorrow today,
Let roses fall, for one and all,
On the graves of the Blue and Gray.
Clasp hands forever and ever
There are no sections now,
They are one and one in the new faith
won
From the faith of a patriot vow.
The wounds that were wide and bitter
Are healed by the touch today
OF the tender figures of love that press
Rose-wreaths for the Blue and Gray!
They are calling the veteran legions
Who march from the fields of the
past;
They are calling the brave young heroes
Who are one with the old ones at
last:
And the flag they are marching under
Is my flag and your flag today
The stripes and the stars of Old Glory,
The flag of the Blue and the Gray!
Bend down with your blossoms. We liv-
ing,
Sleep on in your silence. We deadl
The bugles are mute, the drums muf-
fled,
The columns swing slow in their
tread;
But the North and the South march
together,
They are under one banner today,
And they pluck the white rose of re-
membrance
Alike for the Blue and the Gray!
For the graves that are green with the
verdure
OF the years that have healed with
their song
The sting and the stain and the anger,
The passion, the pride and the wrong;
For the graves with the fresh turf upon
them,
Those young graves that call us to-
day,
with the rose-wreaths of common af-
Made one for the Blue and the Gray.

With prayer and praise. and with

OF men, whose firmness. never over
Proved itself steadfast, which did add
Speed. vision. certainty. and ever
grown
More terrible as more enduring shone
A fire of retribution and swift hate,
All visibly advancing-with these we
keep
Unsullied in our breast and pure and
white
The spirit of gratitude that may not
sleep
A nations safeguard against shame
and blight
Alone can keep a nation at its height.
-Langdon Elwyn Mitchell.
MEMORIAL DAY
With waving of starry banners.
With music of bugles sweet,
All day through our streets had echoed
The tramp of marching feet.
From many a mountain valley,
From city and town and hill,
Around the graves where their COM
rades sleep
The soldiers gather still.
They think of the bitter partings
When first they marched away;
rhe ranks of Blue from the Northland, |
From the sunny South the Gray.
Some with hearts that were eager
And hot with the fire of youth.
Some with a purpose steady,
To fight for God and truth.
they think of the battles tumult
And the lannon's sullen roar,
And the yellow glow of sunset light
When the weary fight was DER;
When gathered around the camfire

HOW SLEEP THE BRAVE.

How sleep the brave, who sink TO rest
BY all their country's wishes blessed
When spring, with dewey fingers cold,
Returns to deck their hallowed mold,
She there shall dress a sweeter sod
Than fancy's feet have ever trod.
BY fairy fingers their knell is rung;
BY forms unseen their dirge is sung;
There Honor comes, a pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay;
And Freedom shall awhile repair,
To dwell. weeping hermit, there!
William Collins.

NEWS OF
 THE TRAIL A Small Mail in From

 In the Snow.
YUKON RIVER NOTES

R. II. Humber, the Well-knOwn mail carrier, rearh X, ne from Unalak fix Thursday morning al ll:lj with about go pounds of mail, largely second class, there being just 52 letters. Mir. Hum ber's mail route is between Unalak il and lsaac'1 point, but this trip he brought the mail through to Nome, Carrier l.. Ii. Grth~ going on 10 Unula. klik. Mir. Humber lett Unaakhk Feb. 27, encountering good deal of water on Norton Bay. For four days of the trip rain and sleeJ fell almost continu- ously. The wire between Kaltag and Panama has been down nearly all win ter, but that between St. Michael and Unalaklik $ working.
 Jack Campbell, the mail carrier be- tween St. Michael and katmai, was badly frozen on his trip from St. Mich- ael and reached the Russian mission on the kuskOk vim in bad shape. The Russian priest endeavored to induce him to forward the mail by natives, but Campbell would not, neither would he engage native guide. His feet were badly frozen and he pushed on, and has not been heard from since.
 The strike on the Tanana is believed to be genuine. Frank Hawks, of Unala- klik, recently received a letter from J. McCallum, who is at Chesna, saying that good strike had been made. Benson. of St. Michael, also received d telegram from his partner urging him to go al once as a good claim had been staked for him. It is also report d that d good many men were leaving St. Michael and the lower Yukon for the CheSna.
 The body of ChaS. Gilbat, the St. Michael cook who was lost on Norton bay in January, was found near ShaE- tOlik, few hundred vat ds from timber. Gilbat had evidently perished in ! blizzard. The body was buried in ' snow bank until such time as it can be properly inferred.
 Three claims are being worked on Bonanza creek. besides good deal of prospecting is under way. there bein. about 30 men on the creek. Quite d number of men are also winteriny on the Tubuktolik, but nothing much seems to have been found, the best pa m rpDprie ed bpipp seven rpptS
 Mr. Humber states the trails are in excellent condition for light travelling, He will leave for UnalaKlik on Tues1ay morning.

A SEARCH
To be Made for the Miss
 ing Dawson City.

Victoria, B. C., Dec. 20.-At the re- quest of those interested in the master and crew of the missing sealing schooner South Bend, United States Consul A. F.. Smith has arranged to have the officers of the steamer Excel siOr make search of the Alaskan coast as far to the westward as Dutch Har- hOr in the hope that some news may be received from the missing schooner, as well as the other missing vessels, the schooner General Siglin from Bering sea, for Seattle, and steamer Dawson City, from Nome for Seatte. Much alarm is being felt for all three vessels. Some of those who are hoping against hope that some word will be received from the missing schooner South Bend point to the fact that some years ago the sealing schooner Mascot, now lying in the upper harbor, was absent on q Bering sea cruise until after Christmas having been detained by heavy weather. The Excelsior is due from Southeastern Alaska about the end of the year.
 Seattle, Dec. 20.-No news from the General Sigln or Dawson City has heen received from vessels which arrived during the past few days from the Alaskan coast. It is now believed by men engaged in the Alaskan traffic that the two vessels have gone down and all persons aboard perished.

That President ROOse. welt be Arbitrator.
NO REPLY RECEIvED
Great Britain and Germany Are Anxious That He Should Act
 -s-l abinet Condemned.

Washington, Dec 24.-The proposals Is of Great Britain and Germany that President Roosevelt arbitrate the Ven eZuelan dispute have reached Washing ton. They are in such form that the president can accept or reject the prop osition outright. So far message, hay ing been received while the president was absent from the White House, he has had no opportunity to consider them. Until he doe, his decision can- not be known. For the same reason nothing can be gathered here as to the details of the proposals, although great interest is felt as to the extent of the limitations which the allies ask to be placed on the arbitration. Curiosity on that point must remain unsatisfied until the president has made up his mind what he shall do.
 It is known that he is disposed to act with all speed in q matter on which he realizes the conditions on the blockade line are such that almost at any mo- ment an unpleasant incident may occur through the obstinacy of some skipper or from genuine misunderstandIn. as to the terms of the blockade, that may diminish the chances of d peaceful set clement of the Venezuelan trouble.
 New York, Dec. 24.-The decision of President Roosevelt respecting the Venezuelan arbitration is being await ed with keen interest in England, says a dispatch from London. The cogency of the objections urged by leading American journals is not denied, but there has been d sincere preference for MT. Roosevelt as arbitrator. The old Tory Morning Post proposed the presi- dents name in advance even of the quick-witted German emperor, and the suggestion has been received with a chorus of acclaR ation by the English.
 London, Dec. 20.-Papers condemn the British cabinet for acting as an ally with Germany in the Venezuelan mat ter. England is thus quite liable to strain its relations with the United States, which would be most unfortu- nate

Supplies Rather Low at
 Mary's Igloo.

J. A. White. merchant of Marv's Igloo, arrived in town Tuesday evening last, having left that place on Feb. 27. For three days he w1s storm bound at the Nugget roadhouse. Things are rather quiet at the Igloo this winter. Supplies were getting low, and Messrs. Olsen, Walsh, Fry and Johnson had gone to Teller with dog teams and horses for provisions.
 'S3 Two days before leaving the Igloo Martin Dahl, on his claim, banned out $T7 from the first two buckets of dirt taken out of the shaft after reaching bedrock, which is about eight feet deep. The weather has been too cold for much work on the creeks.
 Judge GundersOn is still confined to his bed, being attended by Dr. Craven, but he will, in all probability, be brought to Nome within g short time.
 Law and order in the camp are well observed, and where, last winter, a great deal of drunkenness was evi. denced, not one case has been recorded this winter, even among the natives.
 A favorite pastime this winter is hunt. ing rabbits, they being driven into the brush and shot as they try to escape. As many as 50 or so arc killed in Q day.
