IT'S unto Love they've crept and chung;
And eer round Love new garlands hung.
IT'S Love Love, Love. the livelong day,
Until it seems quite thumbed away,
The old, worn string whereon they play.
Some long ago are dead and cold,
Earth, sun and stars are growing old,
But still the tale is far from told.
Nor shall it e'er be told, in truth
While April knows not autumn's ruth,
While Youth looks in the eyes of Youth,
Nor shall the string once hang outworn,
Since Life itself of Love is born,
And as Life wanes must sing its morn.

OF West Virginia received the atten.
tion Of the Supreme Court OF the

suit Of the decision. handed down by
Chief Justice Fuller, Ellis Glenn must
stand trial for a second time on the
charge of forgery.
The woman for years masqueraded
as a man under the name of Ellis
Glenn. She was tried for forgery in
Wood county, W. Va, at the May term
of court, 1901, and the jury disagreed.
She claimed at that time that she was
the sister OF Ellis Glenn" At the
fall term of court. when she came up
for re.trial, she claimed that she twice
was being placed in jeopardy for the
same offense. and sued out a writ OF
habeas corpus before Judge Jackson.
The writ was granted. whereupon
Hunter H. Moss Jr., prosecuting at.
torney, appealed from Judge Jack
sons decision, and the court today
sustained the appeal.
