Out on the prairie's rolling plain.
No matter what the weather,
Ny horse and ! will live or die,
For work we must together.
We slumber meath the open sky,
And while the stars above US
6hins softly down from heavens crown
We dream II those who love us.
So gayly tread the trail of life,
Though It be strewn with sorrow,
Cast care away. enjoy to-day,
And shed your tears tomorrow.

WAS FURIOUS STORM.
Wind and Rain on Chesapeake Bay Was
Worse Than Ever Before

Baltimore, Md, Sept. 17-Report.
from points down the Chesapeake bay
indicate the storm was unprecedented
in it's fury and long continuance. For
nearly ten hours last night and early
this morning the bay was swept by
rain and wind storm that for time
ragged more fierce1y than any other
storm in the memory Of the oldest
chesapeake mariners. The storm was
evidently more severe farther down the
bay than at it's head. The storm played
havoc with the shipping in the north
ern part of the bay particularly. The
wharves at both Betterton and Col
chester We're partially washed away,
while sail boats, steam launches and all
light Graf. around Colchester, Havre de
France and Betterton We're badly dam
aged. In many cases the boats We're
washed away and lost.
The steamer Joppa. from Easton for
Baltimore, tried in vain to make land
ings on the bay shore; her cargo list
ed and for hours she pitched and rolled
with water dashing into her cabins and
drenching the panic stricken passen-
gers, reaching this city safely after
several hours delay. On the lower
Susquehanna q schooner and yacht
were blown ashore, a tug sunk and in
the bay dozen buoys and smaller
craft were driven ashore. In this city
today one man, William Norton. was
instantly killed by coming in contact
storm.
Dispatches from western Maryland
report damage to crops and fruits. The
rainfall during the prevalence Of the
storm for seventeen hours was sos

ATTACK kuRopATKlN AGAIN.
A Report in Toxic That Oyama vii!
lake Initiative Soon.

Toxic, Sept. 17.-Information coEaes
from a high source that Field Marshal
Oyama will make another attempt to
destroy General kuropatkin's army be-
fore it reaches Telling. 1t is said that
the Russians are badly demoralized and
are in such shape now that If the Japa-
nese commander can overcome the diff
ftculties interposed by the frightfully
bad roads and get at the enemy in the
way that he is seeking to strike them
that he will have very little difficulty in
inflicting a blow which will practically
destroy the Russian army
The probabilities are that Port Ar
thur will be permitted to remain as II is
until this new move has been developed.
The only reasons for pushing operations
at Port Arthur is to eliminate it as a
possible base for the Russian Baltic
fleet. 1t is not believed that Russia has
any serious intention of sending Adj
miral Rejeutvensky to the far east. I'm
til it develops definitely that his ships
are coming to test Japan's supremacy
on the sea there is no necessity to take
Port Arthur.
Should the Baltic sea squadron ac-
tually start, military experts here de-
clare that Port Arthur can be taken
within a month and that would be
long before the Russian vessels could
possibly get within reach Of it.

ouencus of criminal prosecution. He
said that II the creditors would bear
with him and not prosecute he felt
certain he could settle the unsettled
claims by o payment of 80 cents on the
dollar and then If his creditors would
accept this amount as partial settle,
ment OF their claims ard allow him to,
resume business he might be able to,
