Warnack,s Muse.

Henry c. Warnack, former city
editor Of The Optic is still heard
from now and then through the med
ium of his poems. The following
dainty little poem, by Warnack, which
appeared originally in the Los An.
geles Herald. is being extensively
copied:
God Keep us True.
oh, in that darksome day when fate
shall strew
Our way with thorns and VI cannot
prevail
Against the surge Of fierce disasters
gale,
God help US to be brave. God keep us
true.
oh. when our tears shall be as morn
ing dew.
When all the ground benea our Ieet
shall sink.
And from the abyss Of despair we
shrink,
God help us to be brave. God keep us
true.
oh. when the sands Of times for us
run thro,.
When fall about us the deep shades
or night,
And we shall helpless grope nor fnd
the light,
God help us to be brave, God keep us
true.

STREET CARS BLOCKED.
Mishap on the Pennsylvania Avenue
Line TODAY,

Through the dropping of the conductor
rail in the weSt-bound conduit three motor
cars of the Capitol Traction Company haG
their plows torn from place near 9th street
and Pennsylvania avenue northwest this
afternoon about 1890 o'clock, and for a
time travel was blocked. This accident was
the forerunner of more serious tie-up on
the line. which occurred near the foot of
the grade on the Avenue between 18th and
18th streets The disabled motors and the
attached cars were being pushed westward
to their respective barns by three motors.
and everything went smoothly until the
grade at 10th street was reached. At this
point it was found that more motors would
have to be secured, and two more were
sent in to help. 1t was stated that those
in charge of the front cars, evidently de-
string to stop at the intersection of 18th
ard F streets put on the brakes, and the
stop signal from the front was not heard
by those pushing In the rear.
The rear motors, running at the ordinary
speed, were unable to push the cars ahead
of them, owing to the heavy grade. and
also to the fact that the front cars had
the brakes on. The pressure from both
ends caused the train to give way at the
weakest point, which was just east of the
turn. One yellow motor and trailer and a
green motor, the latter of the "F and c.
street line. were thrown off the tracks.
By this accident two live motors had
their plows pulled off, and the coupling
of the yellow trailer was broken and COM
pletely thrown round under the car When
the wrecking crew arrived, it was found
to be necessary to remove the yellow trail
er from the tracks. and the car was lifted
and pushed to the gutter. The green motor
was lifted on to the east-bound track and
sent to the navy yard barn The 18th street
motor was put back on the tracks and sent
to the 18th street barn. and about 30 the
yellow trailer was also lifted upon the
tracks and taken to the 18th street barn
Fortunately no one was In the latter car
when it was thrown from the tracks A
delay of about an hour was caused by the
accident, and for that time cars were not
running, either on the east or st-bound
tracks

TRAGEDY OF SAUL.
Theme of DR.. Wetterspoon Before Y.
NJ C. A. Audience.

At the public meeting under the auspices
of the Young Mems Christian Association
held at the Lafayette Theater yesterday
afternoon Dr. w: R. Wetterspoon of As
bury Park, N. j., spoke on THE Tragedy
of Saul" A musical program preceded the
address. the Chicago Glee Club giving sew
eral selections.
The speaker of the afternoon traced the
life and character Of Saul from childhood
to kingship, pointing out that humility and
timidity were his chief characteristics.
Continuing he said in part:
Then there came darkness. / hear the
note of discord and 1 awake to find that
the man is showing his self-will. That is
where many men make their first mistake.
His patience is betokenng itself, the self
will asserts itself in disobedience. 1 see him
der David. whose popularity had nred Saul
to envy. There is not the joy in his face.
Disobedience leads to classifying. Discomfort
follows. Something is wrong. He enters
the battle not with the same confidence that
he was wont to do. He plunges the dagger
into his own side rather than be slain by
the enemy. Saul, like many another man,
had been confronted with a ghost of lost
opportunity AS | look upon Saul there
comes to me two lessons. One is that
can be independent of God and win
success. AS | look again there comes the
second lesson that no man who returns to
God Is turned away. All return to his Max
er. The Father with outstretched arms well
comes the son returning home. and this is
the lesson which l want to leave with you.

In his confession Kruger states that he
came to Chicago in order to escape the
consequences of crimes committed N the
