Cow Bells.

Scarlet. purple, orange light
Fades to palest green;
Farmhouse windows grow less bright
Where the glare has been.
Dusky lie the fields about
And, family heard again,
Far-off, thro' the mist and dew,
Cow bells down the lane.
Tinkle, tinkle, clink-a-clink,
Cow bells down the lane.
Swallows cheep on circling wingO
Winds have chilly grown:
And the cricket shriller sings;
Trees look strange and lone.
Nearer, clearer. past the woods,
A silvery refrain,
Winding slowly up the hill,
Cow bells down the lane.
Tinkle, tinkle, clink-a-clink,
Cow bells down the lane.
Bess and Brlndle, Snowflake. Jet
Breaths like new-mown hay,
Dewy noses, trickling wet,
BARNARD wend their way.
One by one, faint, pearly stars
Watch the twilights wane,
And the put-up bars shut out
Cow bells down the lane,
Tinkle, tinkle. clink-a-clink.

A dispatch to the Capital News, Boise.

says.
The railroad talk In eastern Oregon

for this rightof-way The remaining

This right was secured 10 years since
when the road went into the Malheur
