THE BRAVE OLD WAY.

I say risk all for one warm kiss;
say twere better risk the fall.
Like Romeo, to venture all,
And boldly climb to deadly bliss
like that savage. Sabine way:
What mighty minstrels came OF it!
Their songs are ringing to this day,
The bravest ever sung or writ.
Their loves the love Of Juliet,
OF Portia, Desdamona, yea,
The old true loves are living yet;
And we. we love. we weep. we sigh
In love with loves that will not die
Then take her, lover, sword in hand,
Hot-blooded and red-handed; clasp
Her sudden, stormy tall and grand
And lift her in your iron grasp
And kiss her. kiss her till she cries
From keen. sweet. happy, killing pain
Aye. kiss her till she seeming dies;
Aye. kiss her till she dies, and then
Why, kiss her back to life again!

EASY FOR CHAUNCEY DEPEW.
Editor Comments on the Senator's Re
marks on Lack Of Laughter.

Chaucey M. Depew says we are all
too parsimonious Of laughter; we don't
look around for the fun there is in life;
we take things too seriously. Maybe
that's true enoneh. but it does make
US tired to hear this sort of philosophy
coming from a man like Chauncey,
who rests on doWny beds Of ease. and
who never has to lie awake at night
t:ying to cipher out where the next
winters coal is coming from. Chauncey
/ las bius in his cellar full of all sorts
of domestic and imported money, and
when he wants anything he just goes
down there with sack and shOvels in
enough money to buy what he wants,
and that is all there is to it. It's dad
bl'stered easy for a man to be n
cheerful philosopher when he has "a
few cords of ereenbacks piled up in
his woodshed. And Chauncey, while
he says snch beautiful things between
times, is contributing to the gloom
/ fI the ndlleu HedIjy all tne lllile ny
telling weary old stories that turn a
mans blood to water. It's a nice
kowdydo for man to spring lot of
! heart breaking anecdotes, and then
look around upon the weeping and
shuddering people and tell them dhat
they are too parsimonious Of mirth.
There's a man a good deal like
| Chaunccy within thousand miles OF
I the town we live IN. He goes around
| al the time with beaming smile, as
serene as May morning, throwing
around gems of philosophy promiscu-
orsly. He is always saying pretty
things about letting sunshine in our
lives and gathering the roses while
We may, and all that sort of hing.
He has string of platitudes on file
! il his memory all the time and he
never misses a chance to distribute
! them.
But that's about all that he ever
does distribute. He is so stiney that
he would steal hay from a blind horse.
He has always been well fixed, and

REPORT CANAL TREATY IN
ITS ORIGINAL FORM. ("

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The senate
committee on foreign relations during
the day took action on the Panama
canal treaty, which, in effect, rescinds
its former adoption Of amendments.
Senator Cullom, chairman of the
committee, was authorized to report
q disagreement on the amendments
already reported, which action is
equivalent to reporting the treaty in
its original form. This course Of the
committee is in accordance with a de-
cision reached by the Republican. sen
atoEs more than a week ago not to.

ton Assurances having been given
to the state department and communi-
Gated to the senate that the Panama
republic will permit the harbor i'm

ment the need for the amendments
to- the treaty has been removed and
the alterations recommended by the
committee are held to be superfiuous.
It is believed by the administration
that the interests OF this government
are fully protected now and that it is
not advisable to change the conven-
tion and send 1t to Panama for ratid-
cation Of the amendments. Several
Republican members of the commit
tee referred to the suspicious nature
of the Latin-Americans and the posi-
bility of tying up the treaty il it is
placed before the Panama constitu-
tional convention. The experiences OF
this government in its attempt to get
Colombia to ratify the Hay-Herran
treaty was cited as reason for not In

New York, Jan. 2S.-Great activity
developed in the cotton market dur
ing the day after it had opened com
paratively quiet and somewhat easier

very irregular, at an advance of 6
points to decline of 6 points. For
the first few minutes, liquidation in
the absence of bull support, caused
declines of about s to 10 points on the.
three active months, but this was fol-
lowed by steadier tone, which be-
came decided strength as the session
progressed, 50 that by midday all the
