When comes spring?
When bithest the robins sing,
And the violet has her hour?
Not till the hearts in flower
Is it spring.
When comes June?
At the time of the thrush's tune,
OF all beauties below and above?
When reddens the rose of love,
Then comes June.
Autumn's when?
When grasses rasp in the fen,
And the face of the field is wan?
When joys are faded, gone,
Autumn'S then.

And all 1orn Natures ruth?

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-09-22

The Tehuantepec Railroad with which
the American Hawaiian Steamship
Company has entered into a contract
for sugar transportation, was built
some years ago by the Mexican govern
ment. But it was poorly constructed
and was practically useless because
there was no harbor at either terminus
-Coatzacoalcos, on the Gulf of Mexico,
or Salina Cruz, on the Pacific side.
Seven years ago, however, the Mexican
Government entered into an agreement
with Pearson & Co. to build the neces-
sary harbors and reconstruct the road.
The contract is nearly completed and
the new route will be ready for bust
ness before the end of the present year.
