Kiplings New Poems
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, Sept. 3O.--Twenty-fve new
poems from the pen of Rudyard Kiplihg
will be published tomorrow They will
all be in volume entitled THE Five Ma
tions,'' published simultaneously in New
York and London, the American edition
coming from the presses of Doubleday,
Page and Company. The poet gained IN
SEPARATION for most of his new work in
the South African War. and several of
the poems take rank with the best service
songs that he sang in India in bygone
years He is generous in praise of the
Boer, and not afraid to ridicule the err
rors of his own countrymen. One of the
best of the poems is a tribute to the
Boer under the title of 'Piet," written
in the same spirit that produced Fuzzy
Wuzzy" Here are two stanzas from it:
do not love my Empires foes,
Nor call em angels; still,
What is the sense of ATTN those
You are paid to kill?
Go. barrin' all that foreign lot
Which only joined for spite,
Myself, I'd just as soon as not
Respect the man l fight.
All, there, Piet!-'is trouses to is knees,
Is coat-tails lying level in the bullet
sprinkled breeze;
He does not lose is rifle an he does not
lose is seat,
I've known lot O. people ride dam
sight worse than Piet!
No more I'll ear is rife crack
Along the blockhouse fence
The beggar's on the peaceful tack,
Regardless of expense,
For countin' what e eats an draws,
An gifts an loans as well,
'E's gettin' 'alf the Earth, because
e didn't give us Ell!
All there, Pet, with your brand-new
English plough,
Your gratis tents an cattle, an your
most ungrateful frOw.

The Judge called attention to the new
law allowing only two speeches on each

application permit more than two speeches

Railroad Men Discharged for Drinking

Especial to News and Observer
Asheville, N c., Sept. 30.-A short time
ago there was an investigation into the
cause of some trouble on one OF the
branch lines of this division, and dur
ing the course of the investigation the
fact was made known that two employ
es of the road at the time of the trouble
had been drinking. Though these two
men were not on duty at the time, and
it is said, would probably not have been
called out on their runs until the next
day, they were nevertheless summarily
dismissed from the service, and Superin-
tendent Ramseur is quoted as saying at
that time that he would discharge any
railroad man found inside a saloon
drinking, whether on or off duty.
This ruling of Mr.. Ramseur has been
the subject of much comment in rail-
road circles, but II is believed that it
will stand and that sooner or later
total abstinence will be required of em-
ployes all along the lines of the great
Southern system.

Practical Joke May Prove Fatal.

St. Louis, Mo-, Sept. 30.-Miss Ada
Taylor, cashier of local confectionery
firm, is at the City Hospital in dying
condition as result of practical joke OF
a friend, who called her Carrie Nation.
The real Carrie wrecked saloon at
Cover, Mo-, year ago. The saloon
keeper swore to kill Mrs. Nation on sight.
A few months ago Miss Taylor was
visiting in Cover, and as she was an
ardent admirer of Carrie Nation, friend
began calling her Mrs. Nation. As she
was taking a train for home someone
pointed her out as Carrie Nation to the
saloon man. He seized a coupling PIN
and struck her over the head
The surgeons trephined but when MISS
Taylor recovered she was afflicted with
epilepsy. A few days ago she was stricken
on the street, fell and her skull was again
fractured. The surgeons removed the sll-
yer plate placed there at the time or the
first operation and consider her condition
very grave. The saloon keeper was con
victed of assault to kill.
