SOMEBODY'S DARLING

Into ward of the white washed walls,
Where the dead and the dying lay.
Wounded by bayonets, shells and balls,
Somebody's darling was borne one
day.
Somebody's darling, so young and so
brave.
Wearing yet on his pale, sweet
face,
Soon to be hid by the dust of the
grave,
The lingering light of his boy
~ hoods grace. sis'
Matted and damp are the curls of
gold,
Kissing the snow of that fair young
brow;
Pale are the lips of delicate mold;
Somebody's darling is dying now.
Back from his beautiful blue-veined
Brush all the wandering waves of
gold,
Cross his hands on his bosom now;
Somebody's darling is still and
cold.
Kiss him once more for Somebody's
sake;
Murmur a prayer soft and low:
One bright curl from It's fair mates
take,
They were Somebody's pride, you
know;
Somebody's hand hath rested there;
Was it mothers soft and white,
And have the lips of sister fair
Been baptized in these waves OF
light?
God knows best. He was Somebody s
love!
Somebody's heart enshrined him
there;
Somebody's waited his name above
Night and morn on the wings OF
prayer;
Somebody wept when he marched
away,
Looking so handsome, brave and
grand;
Somebody's kiss on his forehead lay,
Somebody clung to his parting hand
Somebody's waiting and watching fol
Yearning to hold him again to hel
heart;
And there he lies, with his blue eyes
dim,
And the smiling, child-like lips
apart.
Tenderly bury the fair young dead,
Pausing to drop on his grave tear;
Carve on the wooden slab at his head
Somebody's darling slumbers here

King Edward, of England, receives
each day no fewer than 5000 news
papers and 1000 letters, while the
czar of Russia and the German en-
peror receive. each from 500 to 700

Italy is troubled by about 500, and
Queen Wilhelmina from 100 to $50.

When in New York, F. Marion
Crawford has his barbering done and
his boots blacked at his Office. He

Governor jeff Davis of Arkansas is
trying to break into the United

Senator James H. Berry, who has
represented Arkansas in the senate
twenty years. To further his am

another stump speaking trip and is
being greeted everywhere by thou

Mrs. j. A. Hunter of Philadelphia,
urged her husband, an engineer en-
ployed in the League island navy yard
at small salary, to undergo the civil
service examination for the vacant
position of chief of the bureau of
highways. He had removed to Phila-
delphia from Boston less than two
years ago, and he replied that he had
no political influence. The wife with
an inspiring faith in civil service re-
form, urged him to undergo the ex-
animation. He did so. Of six can
didates, including one appointed by
Mayor Weaver temporarily, Mr.. Hun
ter was the only one to pass. He
has been appointed to the position,
paying $500 year, on probation.
Mayor Weaver was surprised, phila-
dephians generally were surprised
Perhaps the most surprised person of
all was Mr.. Hunter. His experience
shows that civil service reform is not
delusion. 1t shows that Bacon did
the fair sex an injustice when he
wrote that bachelors could do better
work than men who had wives and
children, as they had "given hostages
to fortune" The wife urged Hunter
to use his abilities, and the result
has justified her.

very humblest circumstances in the
province of Hiroshima, forty-seven
years ago, when railways and steam
ships were practically unknown in the
island empire. Very early Shimose,
determined to win an education,
made his way to the capital, borrowed
books to study, and, though often on
the verge of starvation, was graduated
from the imperial university with the
highest honors. His first invention
was a curious ink, now used in Japan
