When the wild passions Of the primal man
Burst, like specter of the ancient days:
Upon the startled vision Of the world.
Bringing the summons of a peoples doom
Red with the blood Of maiden and of
babe.
'Lo" cried the nations whom the gentle
Christ
Led from the desert Of unbridled hate
10, have we come again upon the night.
The black dry night Of unappeased desire,
The night wherein the wild beast from his
lair
Steals on his victim sleeping meath the
stars?
See we the wrath of Tamerlane the
Scourge::
Or doth Attila walk again the earth?
Hath the long process of the sun turned
back,
Rlotting from out the roll book of the sky
The shining records of the elder day."
o children of the Father Of the World,
When he shall walk at evening through
the fields.
What shall we answer when ye hear his
voice:
Where is thy brother Abel. where is he?
His blood. his blood cries to me from the
earth!"
John Jerome Rooney in New York
Times.

DATE PALM CULTURE.
P1an For Growing the Tree In Des
erts of Southern California

P1an For Growing the Tree In Des-
erts of Southern California.
Date palms will be waving their
scrawny arms over the deserts of
southern California and a new indus
try will soon be founded If grand
project of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture and the Agricul-
tural college of California, now under
way, turns out as successfully as the
men having to do with it confidently
believe it will turn out, says San
Francisco special to the St. Louis Re-
public.
Professor A. J. P1eters recently ar.
rived at the University of California
from the department of agriculture at
Washington. He is the head of the de-
partment of seed and plant introduc-
ton and distribution and In that ca
pacity directs the gathering and dis
pensing of seeds and plants from all
over the world. Two men under him
do nothing but travel over the face of
the earth to collect seeds and plants
and data for this purpose. They keep
In touch with him, send their collec-
tons to him, and he does the rest.
Now, Professor Peters went to Cali
fornia especially to look into the pro-
posed culture Of the date palm In the
southern California deserts. For long
time the agriculturists have had their
eyes on those great wastes, thinking of
the great natural possibilities for date
culture. The land is boundlessly
wealthy, having stored up in it all the
properties Of virgin soil. 1t Is almost
illimitable in extent and Is heated by
the fierce rays Of tropical sun. All it
needs to make it grow date palms is
water, and all it needs to get water Is
irrigation.
Three years ago the department of
agriculture planted a number of trees
In the deserts for experimentation pur-
poses, and they have thrived. 1t takes
five years for them to mature and bear
fruit. Professor Pieters is going to ex-
anime to see how they are getting on.
he recently left with Professor Stu
benrauch for the south. The result of
this trip will be the planting of more

WHlTEHoUsE MORE PRIVATE
East Room and Terrace Only Parts
to BE Open to Public.


to BE Open to Public.
1t is the present intention TO close the
north grounds of the White House to
the public as soon as the improvements
now being made are finished, says
Washington dispatch to the New York
World.
This was talked of during the recon
strucdon of the White House, but the
president hesitated to put the order
into effect through fear of storm of
public disapproval. Since the compile
ton of the east terrace, through which
visitors enter and leave the east room,
the historic north door of the mansion
has been used as a private entrance,
but people have been allowed to wan
der around the grounds as formerly.
Mrs. Roosevelt and the children, es-
pecially Miss Alice, have been annoyed
at times by people in the grounds peer
ing through the front door and the
windows of the private dining room.
and it is understood to he in response
to their appeal that the grounds are to.
be closed when the driveway now
being put down is completed
The carriage gates will be closed, and
policemen will be stationed at the
smaller gates to keep out every one but
members of the presidents family and
their callers and personal friends. The
changes that are now being made will
be finished before July /.
Visitors to the White House then will
be admitted to the east room for four
hours in the day, as now, but they will
enter and leave through the east ter
race. and that is all Of the White,
House and its surroundings they will
be able to see at close range. The
north grounds will then be as private
as the south grounds have been made
under Mr.. Roosevelt. The north
grounds have never been closed to the
public. President Cleveland closed the
south grounds during his second ad-
ministration because, he said, the peo-
pie passing through annoyed the chill
dren. Mr.. Mckinley threw them open
again, and they remained open until
Mr.. Roosevelt came in.

But she has acted on that motto for a
thousand years.
New England's anthem, The Break

noblest poems in all literature, was
written by woman. We waited eighty
years for our American national an

OFFICIAL VACANCY
On Which the Eyes of the Young Mems Democratic Club Are Focused.

The appointment of Frank Luke to be county assessor leaves a vacancy in the city official list which many will seek to fill. It was reported last night that one of the applicants for the posi- ton is C. M. Zander. late clerk of the probate court and it was also stated that Judge Langston was a candidate. Neither of the gentlemen could be seen last night but it is learned from friend of MT. Langston that he has not thought of the office. He has arranged to resume the practice of law which he abandoned two years ago or taking the office of probate judge.
 It is almost certain that the appoint ment will go to a member of the Young Mems Democratic club and MT. Zan- der is the president of that Organiza- ton. But even the members of the club sometimes disagree among themselves so that there will probably be other ap- plicants from within the club. All the the democratic members, are members of the club, but during the past year their relations have not been as har- mOnious on many points as they used to be and it can easily be seen how diff ferences of opinion might arise about the giving out of this office. The mat ter will probably be settled at the next regular meeting of the council next Monday night.

 AN ENJOYABLE PARTY.-Mr and Mrs. H. P. DeMund gave a party in honor of their daughters. Misses Hazel and Fay, at their residence, corner of Jefferson street and Sixteenth avenue. The attendance of young people was large, and games and dancing and re- treatments gave everybody a good time.'~
 A FIRE ALARM.-There is supposed to have been a big fire somewhere in Simms' addition yesterday morning about o'clock but up till a late hour last night the department had been un- able to find it. A telephone alarm came into department headquarters and the apparatus was started out in a hurry but the firemen could find neither a fire nor any tracks of where one had got away. Returning to the engine house one of the officers asked central to con- meet up the phone from whence the alarm originated. She did so and the lady answering said that neighboring woman had told her that the house of another neighbor was on fire and she kindly called out the department, but up to that time she had been so busy with her work that she had not been out to look for the fire.
 A HUNT FOR A PATIENT.-Ther
 is colored man lurking around some where in this town who will be hunting up a doctor If he wants to go through life with two arms. His name Is Joe Harper, a kind oi a pugilist. He was living in Prescott until a few days ago and while there he took part in a cutting affray one night. A couple of tendons on the back of his right hand were severed and he went to Dr. Yount for repairs. II was a pretty bad cut but the doctor cut into his arm and drew the tendOns together SO that the two middle fingers which were hanging down were drawn up naturally again. The doctor put some absorbent gauge into the incision, dressed the wound and told Harper to return the next day. He did not return and the doctor has not seen him since. The second day he got uneasy and hunted for his pa tient but could not find him. The doc tor was uneasy for two reasons. The first was that that gaIze would almost certainly produce a case Of blood pois- oning and the next was that in that event a mighty fine case of surgery would be spoiled. The doctor came to town yesterday and he learned that Harper was here. He tCld some other cOlored men to hunt him up and tell him that he was not a well man but that he was courting the loss of the arm with which he delivers his right hand jabs.

 A RUMOR DENIED.-lt was ru- mored yesterday that the Union mine on Cave Creek had been sold to Senator W. A. Clark. The Union is one oi the early day producers in that section but has been closed down for a long time and it was a pleasing rumOr for if Sen ator Clark had secured it it would pro bably mean that its operation would be resumed. Colonel William Christy has for a long time been interested in the property as agent or otherwise and he was applied to for a verificatiOn of the story, when he replied that there was nothing in it. Deals for other Cave Creek properties are also reported to be in progress.
