WINTER SONG.

BY A p GRAVES. FROM THE IRISH
Cold. cold until Doom
The storm goes gathering gloom:
Each flashing furrow stream;
A full lake every ford in the COON.
Sea large are the scowling lakes;
Thin sleet-spearS swell to an host;
Light rains clash as shields on the coast;
Like white wether's fleece fall the flakes
The roadside pools ponds;
Each moor like forest upliftS;
No shelter the bird-fiock finds
Breech high the stark snow drifts
Gwift frost hath the ways in his hold.
Keen the strife round Colts standing stone!
And the tempest so stretches her fold,
That none can cry aught but "Cold"'

Professor Breasted is an historian with ex-

ers He gives them authoritative book on
a difficult subject. and he makes it as inter
esting as it is scholarly. We almost forget in
pursuing his absorbing narrative that the
records OF the Egyptians are scanty and obscure.

Does the modern girl read anything? Yes but
according TO Florence B. Low, in '"The Nineteenth
Century" she does not read the right things
Miss Low has been asking two hundred girls
TO name their favorite novels, to tell which of
SCOTS or Of Thackeray's works they have read
and so on, and she summarizes the documents
received with grave dissatisfaction. 1.-The ma
jOrity voted for Edna Lyall. Thackeray
and Jane Austen were only known to a select
few. She 1.-THE modern grill has so
satiated her mind with the second rate the in
sipid the ultra sentimental that she cannot
read the good and the beautiful" The situation
is rather dreadful. Almost are we inclined to
say that we give up the modern girl Yet we
wonder If she is really as bad as she is painted.
Miss Low deplores the fact that the name of
Louisa Alcott appears only twice in her list and
adds 1T is a pity her books, like many Others
nave disappeared. 1t is difficult to I'M
derstand their passing" But have they passed?
In this country, at all events, the publishers seem
TO find it worth while to bring out new editions
of them pretty often Perhaps if Miss Low were
to carry her Investigations further she might
find that there are some modern girls who read
good books However, there is wisdom in what
she says about the modern parent. She bIames
that individual for exercising too little super-
vision over tie reading OF the children and
quotes with approval LOyola's sentence Give
me child up TO seven years DID, and any one
who likes may lave him alterward"

tin says 'the writing in the book is what
counts" and when that is good the author need
not fear, need his friends fear, that public
opinion in the matter is going to be misled. Ner-
Vousness where these things are concerned is, we
suppose, far less the outcome of rational thought
than the result of our modern craze for publicity
This is causing many persons, like Mr. Martins
correspondent TO forget tnat after ALL the only
thing necessary is to do your work well and let
1t go at that 1t will take care of itself
The cold reception given to Lord Lovelace's
extraordinary Byron book is a very encouraging
symptom of the taste which is coming to rule
in matters Of literary history. The love of
scandal is undying, and there will always be
people quick to believe evil of q famous figure
especially when he has been long in his grave
but the policemen of the editorial world are
more and more alert in defending the reputa-
tons of the great dead Mr.. Murray has had no
difficulty in exposing the weak points in "As-
tarte, and, indeed, the author OF that work
knows now that the world has made up its mind
rs to the innocence of Byron's relations with
his half-sister. But what we like best about the
whole business is the way in which general re-
greet has been expressed over the attempt TO re-
vlYe an ancient and discredited tale Gossip
has to-day something less than its former Do
tency. Readers are more eXacting than they
used to be; they scrutinize writings that pretend
TO be historical, and ask for the authority ha
hind them. This is one benefcent result of the
laborS of the scientific school of historians
which has to answer for good deal of duIness
Dut at least dlscouraSeS loose writing We are
eiTnlhS, 100, TO let a great writer's character
alone when its essential lines have once been
established 1t is, in brief, late in the day to
try to make Byron out scamp.

STRIKE IN PINE GROVE.
A Ledge Of Good Ore Cut in Big
C. g. II, Tunnel,

A strike of much importance
was made in Pine Grove last Sun
day when Tillay and Conway cut
into fine vein of ore in the big
Cutting & Hudgens tunnel on the
old Wilson mine. The ledge was
cut in distance of go feet from
the mouth of the tunnel, and on
Wednesday was over four feet in
width, showing fine blue sui
phuret ore with values running
from $40 to $40. The tunnel taps
the ledge at depth of about 400
feet from the surface, and the
character of ore in the ledge is the
same as was followed down in a
winze to water level some years
ago, and which was then the deep
est point in the mine.
This strike is of vast importance,
not on account of the values
shown up. but because it demon
strates that there are lodges carry
ing values deeper than water
level.
The Wilson mine, which was
purchased some years ago by
Messrs Cutting and Hudgens, has
produced, in years gone by, over
$5,ooo,ooo in values, and this
wealth was all taken from depth
of only 200 feet, or down to water
level. The tunnel started by Cut
ting and Hudgens was for the
purpose of draining the ground
and getting chance to see what
there might be in the mountain at
a greater depth than 200 feet.
This is the first vein cut but there
will be more encountered as the
tunnel drives ahead. When a
point is reached under the best
looking ground on top the depth
will be about 600 feet from the
surface
Just what the owners of the
mine will do when they learn of
the strike can only be surmised,
and that is that the ledge encoun
tered will be followed up and ex
plotted and the tunnel advanced
as rapidly as possible to get into
other cross lodges that must exist
there.
The strike means much to Pine
Grove and the southern country,
as it shows that there is plenty
of ore below water level, probably
greater in value than has been
taken out above water level.
