MEET THIS WEEK
State Legislators Gather at
Springfield to Prepare
for Session.
sPEAKERsHIP ABOUT SETTLED
Trautmsnn, Of East St. Louis, Will
Be Selected, u Is
Asserted.

Springfield, Dec. 27.SState law
makers will come to Springfield this
week to arrange for the session of the
legislature. While there will be a
number of caucuses held none prom
Use to be of great Importance SO far
as the speakership fight is concerned.
Trautmann seems to be the choice of
the members, and at this time it does
not appear that The incoming admin
istration will make an attempt to- side
track him. r
Gov.-Elect Deneen will hold a con-
ference with the members in Chicago
today, Wednesday and Thursday of
this week. when the speakership ques-
ton will come up and will be decided
upon. Politicians predict that Mr.
Deneen will throw his forces to Mr..
Trautmann, which insures his election
Other candidates in the field at this
time are Wilfred Arnold of Galesburg,
E. H. Shurtleff of Marengo and Sam
uel Drew of Joliet. They claim to
have a number of followers. but as is
usually the case. the members desire
to light on a live one, and should it
appear that Mr.. Trautmann has a con-
trolling number of members in his
camp, the others will lose no time in
joining him.
Hustle Among OmcehoIder..
Although Mr. Deneen will not as
sumo charge of state affairs for two
weeks, Officeholders under Gov. Yates
are attempting to fix matters. Gov
Elect Deneen, however, had been 81
lent in regard to offices, and says this
matter will be taken up after he is in
charge. E. ]. Murphy, warden of the
Joliet penitentiary, is said to be in
good standing, and will in all probable
ity hold his position. A. l.. French
of Chaplin and James S. Nevill of
Bloomington will be"retained as men,
bers of the railroad and warehouse
commission. The failure of the board
members to agree upon the freight
rate proposition may cause change
when Mr.. Deneen becomes head of the
executive affairs of Illinois.
There also is little doubt that w.
Scott Cowen will hold his place as
flee.
Andrews In to Remain.
Ii is reported, on good authority that
Charles W. Andrews, Busse lieuten-
and of the Twenty-third ward, will be
retained by State Treasurer-elect
Small as assistant treasurer. Mr..
Small was in the city Saturday. but
declined to say who would be named
to succeed Mr.. Andrews. 1t is conced-
ed on all hands that John A. Reeves of
Decatur will succeed himself as chief
clerk of the house and that Bert Nc
Cam of Bloomington will be rejected
reading clerk.

BEYOND.

Written for the Epworlh League at
ReedsyilIe, w. Va, by II. II. Resd.l
We look beyond the space of time,
To the home of the good and blesl;
We see by faith the sun bright cline,
Where God has prepared His peoples rest
land beyond the setting sun;
Orealms more fair than poets dreams.
How clear thy silvery streamlats run;
How bright thy golden glories CLEAN.
Earth holds no counterpart of thine.
The dark brown Orient jewel crowned;
Pale as she bows before thy shrine;
Shrouded in mystery so profound.
The dazzling North, the stately VEST
Whose rivers flow from Mount to sea
The Sou,h's flowers wreathed in languid rest;
What are they all compared with thee
All lands, all realms beneath that dome,
Where Gods own hand hath hung the
stars;
To thee with humble homage come;
o word beyond the crystal bars.
Thou blest hereafter: Mortal tongue
Hath striyen in vain thy speech to learn,
And fancy wander; lost among
The Aowery path for which we yean.
But wei we know that fair aud bright.
Far beyond human thoughts or dream;
Too glorious for our feeble sight,
IKE eLfa. 81 fc.,af.., t........ -.
We know thy happy valleys lie
In green repose, supremeiy bIest;
We know against thy sapphire sky,
Thy Mountain peaks sablimely rest.
And sometimes even now we catch
Faint cleaning of that far OFF shore.
And sill with eager eyes We watch
For one sign or token more.
Some we loved so dear are there;
The brave, the fair, the good, the wise
Some who have been our greatest care,
Have gained that home beyond the skies
There are the hopes that one by one,
Who died ADD lef, this world of mirih.
Our hopes that pass ere well begun,
Too dear, too beautiful for earth.
Thou hast them all hereafter; thou
Shall keep them safely iill that hour,
When, with Gods seal on heart and brow.
We claim them in immortal power.
What might We have been, just only think,
So many changes; but God knows best.
God help us 10 do oar daty and not shrink;
And humbIy trust Him for the rest.

SOFT COPE

Like the running brock, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of rcd blood are
found in the soft core Of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.
