OUR AULO SCOTS sANGs.

Oh. weel | lo'e our aud Scots sangs,
The mournfu' and the gay;
They charln'd me by mither's knee,
In bairnhood's happy day:
And even yet. tho owre my pow
The snaws of age are flung.
The bluid loups Joyful in my veins
Whenp'er | hear them sung.
They bring the fond smile to the cheek,
Or tear-drap to the e'e;
They bring to mind aud cronies kind
Wha sung them aft wi glee.
We seem again to hear the voice
OF mony lang lost fren'
We seem again to grip the hand
That lang in dust has been.
And. oh how true our aud Scots sangs
When nature they portray;
We think we hear the wee bit burn
Gaun pickering doun the brae,
We see the spot, tho far ava,
Where first life's breath we drew.
And a the gowden scenes of youth
Seem rising to the view.
And dear lo'e the wild war strains
Our langsyne MINISTRIES sung
They rouse wi patriotic fires
The hearts of auld and young;
And even the dowie dirge that walls
Some brave but ruin'd band,
Inspires uS WI warmer love
For hame and fatherland.
Yes lease me on our auld Scots sangs-
The sangs of love and glee;
The sangs that tell of glorious deeds
That made aud Scotland free.
What though they sprung frae simple
bards
Who ken nae rules of nrt
They ever, ever yield a charm
That fingers round the heart.

At this moment, slim, pale girl Of

"Mr. Wilkinson was out she began
and then seing her visitors, she cried
eagerly. "Oh. Mr.. Wilkinson, you will

So tenderly. so delicately, Mile gave
her charity. that there was only deep
est gratitude awakened. without the
CALLING sense Of obligation. She left
more than sufficient comfort for some
weeks and promised to send deicacies
for the invalid
No word Of herself passed her lips

New York, March 14.-In an ad-
dress here before large audience in
the Broadway tabernacle, DR.. Arthur
T. Hadley, president Of Yale, has
pointed out the dangers of money
worship and laxity in public con-
science.
cit is only within the last fifty
years." he said, that we have really
begun to feel the consequences of the
appeal to private Judgment as a stand
ard of right and of liberation of indi-
vidual liberty in thought as we'll as
in action.
Freedom is good thing, federation
is good thing; but when freedom and
liberation are carried 40 far that man
withdraws within himself with the
WORKOUT excuse: Am l my brother s
keper?' his own efforts at personal sal
walton, however well meant, are
brought to naught
"Amid the daily contact of men,
habit of thought, standards of value,
subtle influences in the estimate of
right and wrong pass from man to man
quietly and unconsciously. BY this
subtle contact sort of public con-
science is created. The difficulty of
keeping our standards of business and
politics pure today is, l think, greater
than it has been in any previous gen.
Grafton. The task of convincing peo-
pie in democracy that liberty brings
duties as we'll as rights is harder than
the corresponding task under an aris-
tocracy.
"Our industrial machinery and our
political machinery are both excellent
in their way, but no industrial or po-
litical machinery, however good, can
take the place of public spirit and self
devotion.
Here is the great vital need for the
church: Not to make American peo-
pie law-abiding and intelligent; that
it is already; not even to make it kind
ly and courteous and Industrious; these
virtues we have, if no tin ideal meas
ure, at any rate sufficiently for the
practical purposes of life; but to fight
with all its heart and with all its soul
that dangerous spirit of selfish isola-
ton, which encourages man to take
whatever the law allows and most ap.
proves the man who has taken most.
"There must be a sense that power
is trust and not privilege; that lite
is to be valued not for what it enables
us to get out of people, but for what it
enables US to give people in the way
of service

H. Peabody to hold it for one day, was
carried into effect late yesterday after

The vote in joint convention of the
general assembly ty which Governor
Alva Adams was ousted and Governor
James II. Peabody installed was 80 to
Al. Ten Repu blicans voted with the
Democratic mem bers for Adams.
Not a Personal Victory.
1t was more in the nature of a party
than personal victory, for both Pea
body and Mcdonald are Repu blicans
and Adams is Democrat. Although
the Republican majority on joint bal.
lot is 35, it had been found impossible
to gain for Peabody enough Republi-
can votes to reinstate him as governor
for the remainder of the biennial term
ending in January, 1907. Twenty two
Republican members of the general
assembly, according to report, refused
to be bound by any action in caucus
on the contests and entered into com
pact not to vtoe for Peabody. A ma.
jority of them, however, were in ia
vor of seating the lieutenant governor
IN the governors chair if means could
be found to do 80 legally, and finally
the leaders of the opposing Repub oil
can factions arranged compromise
by which Peabody would be vindicat-
ed by being declared elected and Nc
Donald would be made governor.
Promises to Retire.
At the conference at which the bar
gain was made pledg IS were given to
the independent Republicans by the
heads of four large corporations who
had been active supporters of Peabody,
that he would retire after being seated
and permit the lieutenant governor to
take the Office of governor.
Governor Peabody resignation was
placed in the hands of W. S. Boynton
and will be filed by him with the sec
Rotary of state.
Governor Adams, who had spent
the day packing his effects, surrender
ed his office shortly after 5 o'clock in
the evening. Scores of letters, tele-
grams and telephone messages had
reached the executive chamber during
the day urging Governor Adams to
hold his seat by force, hut he decided
to ignore this advice.
In conversation he said be felt out
ragged at the action of the general as
sembly and expressed surprise that
Peal body should become party to
what he termed conspiracy to Sc
cure the Office of governor for man
who had no claim whatever to the
place" Later Governor Adams will
issue formal statement to the public
regarding the result of the contest.
Jesse F. Mcdonald, who is slated to
become governor of Colorado, was born
in Ashtabula, Ohio, in 1858. He came
to Colorado in 1879 and has extensive
mining interests in Leadville i nj else
