Whisky to be Shipped TO Europe
From Kentucky.

Kentucky distillers are making
preparations for the expectation of
20, 900 barrels of whisky to Ham
burg and Bremen for storage pur-
poses. There is no depression in
the market and the expectation is
to be largely on account of lower
storage charges in Europe. The
whisky to be sent abroad is in
tended largely for the trade in
California and other Western
States.
Distilers have found that it costs
less to send whisky to Bremen and
Hamburg and ship it from there to
San Francisco, by way of Cape
Horn, than it costs to ship it from
Louisville to San Francisco by rail.
There are 53,OS3,6 19 gallons of
whisky in bond in the Louisville
district.

The Master Passion.

When Paul said that the love of
money was the root of all evil, he
fashioned KEY which unlocks
most of the situations presented
to day, says an exchange. 1t is
that love which sells votes and law,
which falsifies action which should
be pure; which purchases or sells
favors in charters or decisions !;
which softens sermons to the sus-
capabilities of sins, common or
preferred which debauches legis-
latures, judges and juries; which
sacrifices armies by treachery and
destroys soldiers with bad proven
der, and with adulterated drugs;
which sends sailors to sea in rotten
timbers; which defrauds banks by
forgeries; which ruins credit with
lies. which cheats insurance COM
panies with produced fires, and
which makes the organization of
labor the prey of their own venal
officials. Those who love work,
study culture, charity, business,
fair play, honesty, thrift, self-re-
spect, education, and doing good
to Others more than they love
money. Those who regard wealth
as religion, have no reason ITO be
envious of those in whom the love
Of money is the master passion.

midsummer.

Under the pines the south wind sleeps,
The grass is dry in the sun.
And lazily home TO the burnt oaks crest
The crows wheel. one by one.
Northward the windy mountains rise,
But sweet is tine breadth Of the fern
Where the BURBERRY bushes are bending low
And the orange lilies burn.
The crickets chirp in the drowsy air,
The pines ialk overhead
OF tribes long vanished and deeds long past
And all the lore Of the dead.
Living A-dream IN the wavering light
In sweet-fern hollow curled,
You may hear, if the blood be awake in your
VEINS,
The midsummer voice of the world.
The orange lilies answer the sun,
Flame bright on the purple plain,
And wild bird wandering calls to his mate
Somewhere in a Swallowed lane.
And winter and pain are drifting dreams,
And death forgotten thought,
For the world is alive in the golden air,
And out of a dream is wrought.
