The ceaseless clock still spins the thread
That knows no break but for the dead
Its hands forever onward haste;
Sigh not, lover, for the past.
Each minutes new, strange each hour:
The past to you shall come no more
The hours gone no more shall be;
They live alone in memory
Hope forever; love will last.
Sigh not, lover for the past

JAPAN's REFUSAL FINAL.

that If confirmed it may have a bad ef-

SIR KOGORA TAKAHlRA
FIVE SPECIAL AGENTS
TO INVESTIGATE FOREIGN TRADE
CONDITIONS.

The Department OF Commerce and Labor
has completed preparations for sending
five special agents abroad to investigate
trade conditions, with the object of pro-
noting the foreign commerce OF the United
States. This authority was given the de-
partment by an act of the last Congress,
and becomes operative July /. soon after
which date 1t is expected the agents will
start upon their mission. The five agents
selected are Prof. Lincoln Hutchinson Uni
versity of California; Charles NJ. Pepper,
Harry R. Burrill Raymond f. Crist and
DIR. Edward Bedloe.
The sum appropriated for the work Is
sac, 900. Owing to this comparatively small
sum, 1t was decided to limit the several
fields of investigation in order that the best
results may be obtained for presentation to
Congress early In the approaching session.
Division of Work.
Two men will be sent to the orient,
those selected for this service being Messrs.
Burrill and Crist. Prof. Hutchinson is to
investigate trade conditions in South Amer
lea. He will visit all the sea ports on the
Atlantic and Pacific coast OF that conti-
nent- Mr.. Pepper will go to Canada and
subsequently to Mexico, extending his in
vestigations to the Central American coun-
tries. DIR. Bedloe will be sent to the West
Indies. Venezuela, British, Dutch and
French Guiana.
1t is expected that the work Of investi-
cation will be completed in the field by the
close Of the present year, and that all of
the agents will have their final reports
ready for Congress in January.
Secretary Metcaf has prepared detailed
instructions for the agents, which require
them to make full investigation into our
trade with the countries to be visited;
what proportion of the entire trade is
shared by the United States and what
methods may be adopted to increase its
vo'ume. While the Instructions are quite
comprehensive, including methods of ham
ding, packing and transportation, the
tastes OF the people and relative popularity
of textiles and other products the agents
are admonished that the entire scope OF
their duties is embraced in the act or Con-
gress which directs them ito investigate
trade conditions abroad with the object of
promoting the foreign commerce Of the
United States
Instructions Given.
In this connection the Secretary states:
"You must be governed by circumstances
and conditions that will confront you The
department wants results and relies upon
your intelligence, patriotism and industry
to secure them. The departments instruc-
tions therefore will be general in character
and will be regarded as suggestive rather
than imperative. Instructions must not IN
terfere with the successful prosecution OF
your inquiries and cannot be used as a
refuge for failure
The investigations will be conducted
through the bureau of manufactures, of
which Major John NJ. Carson is chief. and
all reports will be made to him.

The screaming OF the women was terri
flying, and in the mad rush to get out of
the cars men, women and children fought
with each other. Some made their exits
by the doors, while others jumped through
the windows. A remarkable feature was
that in this struggle no one was seriously
injured.
This was mild form of alarm, however,
compared with the scene that was present.

were scattered about in all directions, some

were screaming with agony, others moan

A Question of Accent.

Francis Wilson says that Maurice
Barrymore once made the rounds Of
the offices of the theatrical managers
in London, trying to get them to put
on a new play that Barrymore him
self had written. One of the mana
gers to whom Barrymore had read the
play seemed much impressed. Before
their interview had ended. it had been
decided to give the piece an early
production and to have Barrymore
do" the leading role. About week
after what Barrymore had supposed
was the definitely agreed-upon ar
rangement had been reached, the ac-
tor received a note from the manager,
asking him to call. When Barrymore
responded to the summons, the man
ager said:
Il like the play, old fellow. and I'm
going to give it fine production; but,
really, l don't see how l can use you
in the cast. Your beastly American
accent won't do at all, you know. They
don't like it here"
That's odd" said Barrymore; they
tell me on the other side that won't
do on account of my beastly English
accent. What on earth am l to do
give Rotations on the transatlantic
steamers ?"-Harper's Weekly.

Girls and Dress,

Occasionally a preacher or an edi-
tor can be found bold enough to de-
nounce extravaganza in dress, though
such are not likely to increase their
popularity thereby. Farther Fox, on
the occasion of the admission of over
100 young women into Catholic So
ciety at Trenton the other night made
no bones over condemning the pres
ent tendency to run too much to
clothes.
The expensive outfits displayed by
young women are enough to discour-
age sensible young men from think.
ing of marriage. God help the pres
ent-day young woman and her style;
we want more common-sense and less
STYLE" he declared. A sad feature of
the situation is that there are no Ion
ger any little girls; the little girls
have the same ideas about dress as
their mothers have, and their ideas
are all too grown-up, he said.

He covered his face with his hands

Then the two friends went to work,

managed to get the inanimate animal

the shafts and tugged away at their
self-imposed task. The ascent of Bea-

went at a run: it was easy shedding
