A Modern Hiawatha.
with apologies to Longfellow.)

with apologies to Longfellow.
In the far off Chimahuevas,
On the Colorado river,
Dwelt lovely Indian maiden
Who set manly hearts aquiver.
Now the Red Man has legend
That she was the Rivers daughter ;
And she has the same complexion
AS its dirty muddy water.
And she wove the lovely blanket
From the wool we call merino;
And at cooking dogs and rabbits
She was sure a peacherino.
And she caught all kinds of small fry,
When the river could be waded;
As a merchantable asset
She had Minnehaha faded.
From the far off Hassayampa,
From the river that is drier
Than Prescott politician,
Came one day famous liar.
And he sang of lovely Prescott,
Where the ladies dress so stunning,
And the court house groans witt
Doodle
And the street car is not running
And he told her of the Red Men
Near the B. B. store are basking,
And the hand out and the bug juice
Could be had by simply asking.
And he plead his case with ardor,
Full of passion love and fire,
Til the salmon and the jerky
On the clothes line got still drier.
A sensational elopement
Quickly followed to our hero.
And they hoboed up to Prescott,
With the mercury at zero.
But alas, for modern methods;
Minnehaha's on the hummer.
At the bum roosts in the booze joint
Lochinvar's the latest conner.
Now she's selling beads at Prescott,
And our Hssayampa man
Is going to the bow vows,
On the third installment plan.
And the moral of this story
Which outlasts all moods anC
weather,
Proves the white mans trite old say
ing,
Glove and booze don't 60 together.

SOME COMMENTS.

The presidents message seems to
have been received most favorably by
the press and people of this country
while the press of England also speak
in terms of praise of it. A few COM
ments are herewith given from the
New York papers:
The Eagle says, The message, as a
whole, will be approved by the peo-
pie. The president is justified in his
praise of arbitration between nations
as a method of honesty and peace.
Mail and Express: 1t is a strong
message. He leaves the senate with
but one thing to say-a canal or no
canal. In the matter of labor, if the
government must be a respector of
persons, it would better go out of
business as a government. The Amer
lean people will be able to meet the
exigencies presented by the relations
of capital and labor. They are not
going to be over ridden by either
party.
Commercial Advertiser: The ex-
traordinary record of a revolution al
most every year justified the presi-
dents assertions that the experience
of half century has shown Colombia
to be utterly incapable of keeping
order on the isthmus. Delay in inter
ference on our part would have caused
the isthmus to be bathed in blood.
The Post, which is "fornist' the ad
ministration, makes a very feeble at
tempt at criticism as will be noticed
from the following: "The presidents
programme of navy engagements has
in it the promise of endless deficits.
He is for economy in the abstract, but
is also for every concrete expenditure.
The presidents explanation of the
Panama policy looks like admitting
that there is serious opposition and
that defense is necessary. The portion
of the message relating to ship subsi-
dies is ominous and discreditable.

fail. To glance over the list of performers

TO expect another treat upon the occasion

The Park-TwO Attractions.


The Park will open the coming week with
new melodramatic and scenic production,
when Women Love-" which is said to be
of appealing interest. It's opening scene is
in the factory district of a metropolis,
where there is a mob i'm full action. An
other scene is that of the women's ward
in the Blackwell island prison, New York,
and a third shows garden fete at Hud-
son river villa, when number of songs and
dances are presented. The plot follows the
trials and fluctuations of factory girl in
love with a young lawyer, who has rival,
who, when rejected by the girl, seeks re-
yenge. With the aid of miser the villain
fastens a crime upon the girl; she is hound
ed TO prison, and when brought to trial the
rejected sutton, who is state attorney.
undertakes to force her to marry him. A
photograph, in which a conversation is re-
corded between the old miser and ras-
cally nephew, is brought into the court
room and furnishes the missing link which
clears up the crime. Many graceless deeds
of sensa tional character occur before the
romance is wrought to a pleasing end.
Among the players who make up what is
said to be a company of merit are Florence
Weston, Barbara Douglas, Franklin Mum
nell and Lew A. Warner. the latter In
