MRS. DORIS POEM.
Mrs. Julia G. 4. porr who wrote
the dedcatory poem. was introduced
as Vermonts own queen of poets. The
poem follows:
Draw near, o spirit Of the Past, draw
near
And let us feel thy living presence here.
With rcvcrcut hearts and voices hushtd
ard low,
We wait to hear thy garments rustling
From all the turmoil If the passing day.
From al the cares thlt meet us by the
way
From LIES deep ycarnnss and its strange
When joy and sorrow strive within the
breast.
From aspirations that too often seem
Like hooking plantoms Of some Icvcrcd
dream
We turn aside. This hous is thine alone,
And none shall share the grandeur of thy
throne.
All, thou art here. Beneath these whisper
ing trees
Thy breath floats softly or the passing
breeze;
We feel the presence that we can not
And every moment draws MS nearer thee
Could We but sec thee with Thy solemn
eyes
In whose raro depths such wondrous
meaning lies
Thy dark robes sweeping this enchanted
ground.
Thy midnight hair with purple ransios
crowned,
Thy lin so sadly sweet, thy brow serene.
There is 40 expectation in thy mcln
For thou art done with dreams. Nor JOY
Can Ger disturb thy placid calm again.
What is this veil that hides thee from
our sight?
Breathe it away. thou spirit darkly
bright,
Now scvcn-sooro times the summer S
Fragrant blooms
Have iadcn all the air with sweet per-
fumes
And scvcn-soore times has kindly winter
spread
His snowy mantle DOR the violet bed,
Since on thcsc grassy knolls the quick,
sharp stroke
Of the young wooiman's axe the silence
broke
Not thea did these oncircling hills look
down
On quaint old farm house, or On stocpled
town:
But the fair Ettcr rs it flowed along
Sang as it sings to-day, its joyous song,
Biding rs time, No band had sung its
praise;
No poet crowned it with Immortal bay s!
II played no Part in legendary lore.
And young romance knew not its winding
shore.

STRUCK ON THE HEAD
WITH BIG HAMMER
OLD SOLDIER VICTIM OF CRUEL
ASSAULT
Attacked by Some One Unknown to
Him and May Die as Result of
the Numerous Injuries Which
Were Inflicted

M. ]. Mccarthy. a preacher and ex-
soldier, 6S years of age, was struck on
the head by someone unknown to him
last night and injured so seriously that
he may not live.
Mccarthy was taken to the receiving g
hospital where he said that as he was
entering his house at S07 Turner street
a man rushed up behind him and struck
him heavy blow on the head. Nc
Carthy said that he did not see the
man and does not even know what kind
of a weapon he used.
An examination Of McCarthy's in
juries disclosed a fractured skull above
the right eye and several severe bruises
at the base of the brain.
Dr. Freedman, who attended McCar-
thy at the receiving hospital, expressed
the belief that Mccarthy was struck
with hammer, but cannot account for
the numerous other injuries on Nc
Carthy's body.

CITY MAY PASS LAW TO
LABEL ALL CHILDREN
POLICE SUGGEST THAT SAME BE
APPLIED TO HORSES
Officers Declare There Is Nothing
Which Puzzles Them More Than
Lost Child Who Is Unable to Tell
Where He or She Lives

| Will Los Angeles follow the proposed
plan of New York and label all her
children, under a certain age, with an
identification card, so their return home
may be. made certain in case they
should run away or be lost?
During the last year the Los Angeles
police department has cared for over
100 lost and runaway children, 80 per
cent of whom either could not, or
would not, tell their home addresses
Some of these children wandered into
the police station with fearful eyes,
pleading for their parents, while others
were taken in by the big crossing
policeman, strongly declaring their in
dependence even after being turned
over to the care OF the police station
matron.
1t is now proposed by one of the New
York aldermen to introduce an ordin-
ance in the city council providing that
every child under certain age shall
wear an identification card telling his
name, address and the name of his
parents. This proposed ordinance
further provides that in case child is
found without this Identification card
fine of $40 shall be imposed on the
parent
The local police are heartily in favor
of such a provision and declare that
such an ordinance should be introduced
in the Los Angeles city council. The
police declare. that there is nothing
which puzzles them so much as lost
child who is unable to tell where he
lives. With little tag sewn in the
clothing of every child the police de-
partment would be relieved of much
annoyance and many a mother would
be saved hours of worry and anxiety.
The Los Angeles police suggest that
the proposed ordinance in New York
might go still further and provide for
the tagging of all horses. One thousand
lost horses were cared for by the police
last year in this city.

Massachusetts Street Railways
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
BOSTON, May 25.-Seventy one
banks and trust companies, most of
them in Massachusetts, but several To-
Gated in variou parts of the country,
are among the creditors of the bank
ing firm of Burnett, Cummings & Co.
of 43 Milk street, this city, which to-
day filed voluntary petition in bank
ruptcy in the United States district
court, with liabilities placed at ST.
714,163.
The assets are stated to be uncertain.
The creditors have been given to un-
derstand that they will not exceed
100000. if indeed they prove to be of
any value whatsoever.
The bankruptcy petition is the heav-
lest ever filed in this district.
Attorney J. T. Aubach. counsel
for the bankrupt firm, said that the
cause of the failure was the building
and financing of Massachusetts street
railways. The roads were in thickly
settled districts and were unable to
make suitable connections with roads
running to Boston and were placed in
the hands of receivers and their Sc
curities became valueless.

TOOK UP WORTHLESS LOAN
Accuse George E. Fisher of the Vlr-

pany Of Obtaining Money by
Unfair Means
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, May 25.-Chief among
today's developments from the failure
OF the Merchants Trust company was
the statement that Miss Helen Gould
and her brother Frank mad been in
duced to invest in the securities of the
Virginia Passenger and Power COM
pany of Richmond, Va, on the securi-
ties OF which the trust company made
heavy loans, and that they have
charged George e. Fisher with the TAX
ing of $2,OOO,OOO to which he was not
entitled. Their charge is in answer to
his suit for receivership for the Vir-
glnia Passenger and Power company,
of which he was the promoter.
While Fisher was floating the Sc
curites, he went to DIR. Mum. the
Gould family physician, and through
him interested Helen and Frank
Gould.
When the discovery was made that
the Virginia Passenger and Power
company was a financial fizzle, the
Merchants Trust company had made
a loan of $1,500,0O on it's securities.
This loan Miss Gould and her brother
took up for the trust company, to save
DR.. Mum from heavy loss 1t is this
sum, with interest, that the Goulds
means. The Goulds allege they We're
induced to invest in securities through
Fishers fraudulent representations.

WARSAW, May 25.-The Jewish dis

Extraordinary scenes were witnessed
late tonight, when the crowds visited
the better section of the city and de-
molished apartments filed with costly
effects. Wardrobes, pianos and mir
rors were thrown out of the windows.
The mob in the streets left open spaces
for the falling articles and then COM
pleted the work of destruction. In one
place a quantity of valuable jewelry
was taken out and deliberately smashed
with stones.
The whole affair was carefully or
ganized. The leaders were supplied
with the addresses of the owners of
disreputable houses, and scarcely a
single resort in Warsaw escaped de-
struction.

session a French manuscript handed
down III MS ldllllly ana giving IL Coiii-
pIete history of the fate of the lost
Dauphin of France, written by the
man in whose charge Robespierre left
him at the Temple prison. With the
manuscript is a French ornament of

"Guittemendez's body was washed
ashore here and I, the. sole survivor,
have read the manuscript The manu-
script and ornament, not very valu-
able in ITSELF 1 have buried eighteen
PAGES directly south of the large PIN

north point of the island.

ested in historical subjects, 1 ask that
it be sent to the professor of history,

will appreciate the information. 1 am
