With the Advance Guard

In the dream OF the northern poets,
The brave who I'm battle die
Fight on IN shadowy phalanx
In the field Of the upper sky:
And as We read the sounding rhyme,
The reverent fancy hears
The ghostly ring Of the viewless swords
And the clash Of the spectral spears.
We think with imperious uuestioninRs
OF the brothers whom we have lost.
And we strive TO track In deaths mys-
terry
The flight Of each valiant ghost
The northern myth comes back TO US.
Ard We feel. through our sorrow's night.
That those young souls are striving still
Somewhere for the Truth and light.
II was not their time for rest and sleep:
Their hearts beat high and strong:
In their fresh veins the blood Of youth
Was singing Its hot. sweet song.
The open heaven bent over them.
Mid flowers their 1.-THE feet trod

And I see the light Of heaven which lay
On Uric DahlsTen's curls.
There II no power IN the gloom of he'll
To querch those spirits FIRE:
There IL no power In the bliss Of heaven
To lid them not aspire:
But somewhere In the eternal plan
That strength. that life survive
And Ike the files on Iookouts crest.
Above deaths clouds they strive.
A chosen corps. they are marching on
In wider field than ours:
Those bright battalions still fulfill
The scheme Of heaven powers:
And high brave thoughts float down to u.s.
The echoes Of that far fight
Like the fash Of n distant pickct's gun

No fear for them, In our lower field
Let Us Keep our arms unstaincd.

When TIE bugies Of God shall sound re-

The Skerryvore Lighthouse is one

TIE lighthouse was begun in 1888
and took six years to complete. the

THE SMITH FAMILY"

NE Shl u.
The laborer was puzzled, but the
contractor. after struggling with some
dim boyhood recollections, was able to
explain 1t. There is, or rather there
used to be. a sort of tradition that If
the tenant of a rat infested house
were to write a note to the rats,
couched in terms of extreme polite
ness. requesting them to go elsewhere,
and post it in rat hole, the rats might
obIige.
The contractor remembered way
back In his childhood days in a coun-
try town writing just such a note, po-
Etely asking rat family to transfer
their attentions to a neighbor who
had been vindictive, and firmly believ.
ing, on their temporarily disappear.

The contractor took the letter home
TO show his snail hoy that letters TO

As Mr. N,hijeside will ou this occasion of his en4a2emsnt nj the F,llls theater on Thursday.

Over twenty-yes, thirty-years ago. the elder SOthern produced in this country a comedy called David Gar rick. He won one of his greatest successes in his portrayal of he tile role.

 To deserve to be called a charming woman, one must be charming to wo- men as well as to men. otherwise the charm would be very one sided thing so to speak. It is easy to charm man in many cases, not so easy woman.

When Little Johnny Jones" was first presented in New York last soa. son 1t made such an emphat c and lnstanfai eaus success that the entire country was soon singing it's praises and It's author and composer, George M. Cohan, awole to the fact that he was famous. MT. Conan previous to tlis had given to the stage two very acceptable musical plays, ssThe Gov ernof,s Son. and Running for Of. hce, both of which have attained great popularity. but his latest pro. duct, Little Johnny Jones'" proved so original and such gorgeous en. tertanment that his reputation as an author and composer was assured af fer the first night. "Little Johnny Jones' caught the fancy and liking of the metropolis to such an extent that 1t scored run of twenty-five weeks in New York, several weeks Tn Boston, four weeks in Ph:ladnlnnia and over three months in Cicago. No musical production was made last Sna- son that attained such a record, and the fact that the local theater-ooire public are to witness "Little Johnny Jones' in this city at the Elks theater tonight conveys With the announce nent much pleasurable anticipation, "nd can easily be considered one of the most notable bookings of the sea son.

PRESSMEN'S UNIOM
 WANTS S-HOUR DAY
MEETING WILL BE HELD THURS DAY NIGHT TO DISCUSS MAKING SIMILAR DEM. IND TO THAT OF TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION.

With the announcement that the Typo- graphical union will demand an eight hour working day after January 1 comes the statement that the printing pressmen or Birmingham will make a similar de- mand. meeting of the Birmingham Printing Pressmens union No. 121 has been called for Thursday night for the purpose of advancing the idea and get ting an expression from all the pressmen or the city, some thirty in number. The meeting will take place>at Dunker's hall, on Twentieth street
 Notices of the demand for an eight hour day, which will be sent out by the Typographical union, are in the hands or the printer and will be addressed to the proprietors of printing offices and newspapers during the week.
 While it is expected that few shops will protest, 1t is the consensus of opin- ion among d majority of the proprietors Of printing shops seen yesterday that the agreement would be signed and eyery- thing amicably settled by January
 It was reported after the meeting of the typos Sunday that the agreement be- tween the lad" men on newspapers and their employers expired January 13. This was mistake on the part of the one impartng the information, as explained yesterday. The present contract will run indefinitely, but the eight and one- quar- ter hour clause expires which means that after that date the lad" men will work only eight hours.
