NOBILITY OF TREES.
Tribute To the Najesty of tn.
Mighty OaL

Directly in my path stood an ancient
swamp white oak, the greatest tree
think, that have ever seen. 1t was MOI
the highest nor the largest round. per
haps, but individually. spiritually. the
greatest. Hoary, hollow and broker
limbed, his huge bole seemed encirclet
with the centuries, and in this greer
and grizzled top all the winds Of heay.

One could worship in the presence Of
such tree as easily as I'm the shadow
Of vast cathedral. Indeed. what "a
there built with hands that has the dig.
nifty, the majesty, the dignity, OF life
And what life was here. Life whose
beginnings lay so far back that could
no more reckon the years than | coulG
count the atoms IL had builded into this
majestic form.
Looking down upon him from twice
his height loomed tulip poplar clean.
boiled for thirty feet and in the top all
green and gold with blossoms. 1t was
a resplendent thing beside the oak, yet
how Enthusiastically tile gnarlcd old mon
arch wore the crown! His girth more
than balanced the poplar's great height,
and. as for blossoms, nature knows the
beauty OF strength and inward majesty
and has pinned no boutonniere upon
the oak.-Dallas Lore Sharp in Nation

Something Wanted.

A bachelor old and cranky, was sit
ting alone i'm his room. His toes with
the gOut were aching, and his face was
o'crspread with gloom, no little ones
shouts 10 disturb him-from noises the
house was free. In fact. from cellar
To attic twas aS still a. still could be.
No medical aid was lacking; his serv.
ants answered his ring. respectfully
answered his orders and supplied him
with everything. But still there was
something wanted, which lie could not
cOmmand-the kindly words OF com
passion, the touch OF a gentle hand.
And he said. AZ his brow grew darker
and he rang for the hireling nurse,

Spaniard for dancing and the serious

CAUGHT BY THE CRY.
The Way an Australian Bandit Was
Trapped In London.

Trapped In London.
"Coo-e-e" is the curious cry that was
one of the signals OF the native blacks
OF Australia. The cry was speedily
adopted by the invading whites. The
final "e' Is a very high note, sort of
prolonged scrcech that resounds for
long distances through the bush and
thus enables separated persons TO rs.
certain their relative positions. On one
notable occasion this peculiar cry was
heard in London. 4 daring bushrangcr
made his appearance one morning i'm
front OF bank in Ballarat ana coolly
posted notice on the door 10 the ef-
feet that the place would be closed for
an hour.
Entering he terrorized the officials
with his revolver and got clear away
with $4,000 Some time afterward
the authorities received information
that the man had been seen in London
One day n detective thought he espied
his man in the Strand; but, not being
quite sure, he hit upon an eXpedient
He uttered n piercing "Coo-e-e."

kElTH'S NEW THEATRE,

The bill announced for next week at
kelth'S is attractive in its diversity and CIV
feature, and it seems to be one that will
especially appeal to the discriminating thea
ire goers, for every act on the bill is Of the
highest grade Of its particular line. Head
ing the bill will be these two established
layorltes, Mir. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, in one
of the most interesting one-aet plays the
vaudeville stage has had for long time.
The yellow Dragon" This is based upon
an incident Of the uprising Of the Boxers in
China 4 short time ago. Mr.. Drew, an ex-
cepuoually clever member Of famous the
atuoal family, impersonateS a nervy secret
service American, who TO escape some
Chinese spies, seeks refuge ia the house of
charming American widow (playcd by Mrs.
Drew. The spies follow him, and he is
obliged TO impersonatc the deceased husband
ceSSiuly, and he wins both the admiration
and heart Of the young widow. Ernest
Hogan, the colored comedian, singer and
composer, author OF some of the biggest
song hits Of he day, will make his hrs, ap-
pearance at Kei,h's and is expected to score
the BIG hit he always does elsewhere. One
Of the daintiest offerings of the vaudeville
season will be presented by Mr.. and Mrs.
Esmonde, two clever recruits from the lecit-
mate stage. This is called "A Soldier Of
PropyilIen The exquisite sentiment Of this
little play is combined with some delicate
humor in a very pleasing manner.
