THE ODYSSEY.

As one that for a weary space has lain, Lulled by the song of Circe and her wine, Tn gardens near the pale of Prosperine Where hte Aegean isle forgets the main And only the low lutes of love com plain, And only shadows of wan lovers pine, As sucn an one were glad to know the brine Salt on his lips, and the large air again, So gladly from the songs of modern speech, Men turn and see the stars, and feel the free Shrill wind beyond the close of heavy flowers, And through the music of the languid
 hours They near like ocean on. a western beach The surge and thunder of the Odyssey.

THE RIVER OF YOUTH.

From all the golden hills of Dream, Dew-cool and rainbow kissed, It twines and curls, a silver stream, Through valleys hung with mist. Down past Enchanted Woods to where Romance walks ever young, Where kings ride forth to take the air On steeds with velvet nung- Where Secret Stairways tempt the
 bold,
 Where Pirate Caves abound, And many a chest of Spanish gold May solemnly be foundi Through magic years it twines and
 creeps
 Past towers of peacock blue, Where still some captured Princess
 sleeps
 And dreams come always true. Then gleam by gleam the light goes
 out,
 Then darkened, grief by grief, It signs into our Sea of Doubt And Manhoods Unbelief

DUBIOUS DIAMONDS.
Genuineness of Certain Famous Stones
 a Matter Of Dispute.

It is an established fact among jew elers that some of the well known stones generally accepted as genuine diamonds are not such, while about others there is a difference of oPiniou among the experts themselves. "The fact is.' said a Sansom street dia- nlond dealer who makes this statement and who is particularly well informed on the historical and scientific sides of the subject, that any transparent stone composed entirely of carbon is, in the eyes of the man of science. d diamond. But for the dealer there are many questions of color and quality, and from his point of view a stone composed of pure carbon might be no nearer what he calls a diamond then a lump of coal, which has practically the same composition.
 Many experts refuse, for instance. to put Brazilian stones in the class ot true diamonds, though the Braganza, one of the Portuguese crown jewels, ie such. That stone weighs 1880 karats, as I remember the figures, and is as big as a hens egg. Considered as a genuine diamond, it would be worth over $200, 100000 perhaps; but the ques- tion is not, after all, important, be- cause it is not likely ever to come upon the market. Indeed, there can- not be said to be a market, in the ordi- nary sense, for such stone as that. and if it was ever offered for sale it's price would depend on other things than its computable value. Another dubious diamond is one weighing 367 karats, owned by the Rajah of Mat tang, Borneo. Such men as have seen this stone and are willing to pass an opinion are divided on the question. The genesis of the stone is also in volved in doubt, which is curious, be- cause practically all the large and well known stones are of known origin and history.
 After all, this matter Of genuine ness is within certain limits one of dis pute among dealers, and it is not of importance to the general public be cause it concerns only the very large and famous stones which are not fo- sale. In the ordinary stones of com merce quality varies greatly, but there is no difference of opinion as to gen. uineness. It is either a diamond or it is not."-Philadelphia Record.

 That men should see?" Then quick the answer came,

STATE WAITING
Reduction of Rail Rates by Rail-
way and Warehouse
Commission
HAS LONG BEEN EXPECTED
Thirty Per Cent Given Chicago Ship
pers Not Likely to Be Duplicat-
ed Outside.

Railroad officials and shippers in Pc
oria are anxiously waiting for a decis-
ion i'll the Illinois freight rate case.
The briefs of the attorneys for the
railroads have been i'll the hands of
the members of the railroad commits
sion for several months, but as yet a
decision seems long way off. Chica
go shippers are said to be especially
uneasy. for it is maintained that there
is little doubt but what the decision
will be in favor of reduction. If the
reduction is only Is per cent, the rail
roads will consider that they have won
a victory. Such a reduction will not
satisfy the dOwn-state shippers, for II
will still leave the jobbers and ship
pers in other states with an advan-
tage over their competitors in Illinois.
Get 30 Per Cent.
That the Chicago shippers received
at the time of their withdrawal from
the prosecution of the case, a reduc
ton amounting to so per cent, is
acknowledged by railroad men. For
this reason it is hoped that the com
iiIioSioIi ct lllo oCooioIi Will oidCi q
horizontal decrease of at least 80 per
cent all over the state.
If the commission makes reduction
Of only Is per cent, Chicago will still
have an advantage over the jobbing
centers of the state, while if the re-
duction is so per cent, the Windy City
will be placed on parity with othe.'
Illinois cities. Under the Circumstance
es Chicago shippers would be just as
well pleased if the reduction is no
more than IS per cent, while such Il
reduction will not be well received by
Rock Island shippers.
Governor Impatient.
Strained relations exist between Gov.
Deneen and MessrS. French and Ne
vile of the board over the freight rate
question. The resignation of these
two members of the commission would
not be totally unexpected.
If the decision is not reached this
week, or if it is unsatisfactory to the
shippers, it is said on good authority
that action will be taken by the down.
state shippers that will be entirely along
different lines than have been hitherto
Pursued 1t is intimated that the
courts will be appealed to and that ev-
t.ything is ready for action.
