Decision Not Reached.

London, BY Cable-The Associated
Press has the highest authority for
saying that the announcement made
by the Morning Advertiser, that the
decision OF the Alaskan boundary
commission virtually comedies the
American case, is entirely untrue. The
commission, thus far, has reached no
decision and no vote has been taken,
even in the private sessions, which
would indicate Chief Justice Alver-
stones position. 1t Is quite true that
the general trend of opinion among
those connected with the tribunal.
aside from the commissioners, Is that
the ultimate decision will be in favor
Of America, but there is, as yet, not
the slightest warrant for saying it
has been reached.

The Soapbox Garden.

There are gardens filled with flowers that
are worth their weight IN gold.
There are gardens where the dainty
blossoms bend. and nod. and blow
In such glorious profusion that you
never need be told
That a good sized fortune has been
spent upon each brilliant row.
Yet I know a little garden that Is better
than them all
Hidden in the city. where lies cross

And the Joy it brings its owner is
thing that's good to see:
The little soapbox garden here In town!
In an unpretentious courtyard 1t % grow
ing day by day
A row of boxes. filled with earth. and
placed against the wall
And the white cords that lead up from
them seem cheerily to say
To the struggling flowers. I'VE are
here-climb up. you can not fall"
There's a white faced little cripple who
watches Ger the plants,
And waters them. and sings to them.
and pats the soft earth down.
While his eyes glow with delight when
each new leaf shows itself
In his little soapbo1 garden here IN
town.
II boasts no priceless blossoms, such a.
those we often see
Displayed in rich surroundings. In the
florists window gay;
But those straggly little flowers are as
dear as they can be
To one who lives his life apart and
plays with them all day.
And though the buds he gathers may be
small and overfrail.
Each one, I'm sure. will straishten out
the deepest kind Of frown.
For the little cripple proudly picks and
gives his flowers away
From his little soapbox garden here In
town!
