THE RETURN TO THE SEA.

Let Us destroy the dream! she knows not
Let us go back rejoicing to the sea.
Signing is vain, and laughter shall not pro
But MI LIES frothing cup again and quar-
To wider hopes and greater things to be.
Time turns his tide, and turns back our
distresses;
Let us return mistaken as we came.
Shall we, the wanderers, mourn for lost
caresses?
Our hands are fettered by no cloudy tresses;
Ours are the hearts no starry eyes can
tame.
Yet had she heard the tones our songs
could lend her,
we might have found some world of hers
Sweet with perfume of summer roses fen
der,
And vibrant with the salt seas strength
And lit by stars that now shall never
shine.
Nay, but she would not-nay, she could
The flying dreams with vast and vivid
wings,
Days and delights with poisoned pain be
low them,
Hopes, flowers and fancies,-where shall
we bestow them?
What shall we do with all these wasted
tuIuE5.
Sink them in seas that give their dead up
never;
A hundred fathoms deep beneath the
main;
Beside the rotted wrecks of old endeayor
So that no daring deep-sea diver ever
Can bring our worthless treasures up
again,
For her the safer life of dreams crushed
under,
For us the oceanic throb and thunder,
The resonance of all the winds of wonder
And lordly interchange of night and day
Nay, she has chosen. Let US turn our
faces,
And 90 back gladly to the windy shore;
And follow far the tides tumultuous traces
Toward the fierce flicker of adventurous
places,
And look not back, nor listen any more

HOUSE OF MYSTERY.
Sewer Workers in Paris Find Mysterious
Dwelling Under the Ground.

Workmen engaged in repairing sewer
on the Bots de Bologne, in Paris, have
discovered veritable house of mystery.
1t rivals one of Eugene Sues novels in
its melodramatic accessories to occult
crimes and misdeeds
1t has subterranean passages, spring
ing panels, hidden trapdoors, secret un-
derground apartments, padded and lux
uriously fitted rooms, and entrances
closed by slabs of solid steel, which glide
softly back when you press a button, in
sert a needle into a microscopic hole,
touch a secret panel or do the various
other things laid down in the fiction of
the last century.
The house has been untenanted for
years. The last tenant being Baron
Roaul de Vaux, harmless elderly man,
who had but little knowledge of the pos
sibilities of his house for occult crimes
1t does not appear that anybody has ever
made any use of all these appurtenances
of thrilling melodrama.
But there are undoubtedly tremendou.
possibilities in the house of mystery
though no mystery has yet been wrought
within it's fearsome walls. The melo
| dramatic potentialities, so far as known
seem TO have been engineered for mer,
arts sake and for sheer love of the thing
