Washington, Dec. 4.-Members of
congress arriving in Washington for
the session are loaded with ideas as
to the next presidential election, but
net many of them care to give public
expression To their views. Democrats

1t Is not to be understood that any
republican member of congress would
be hauled up on the carpet and asked
to explain anything he might say
about the presidential succession; but
there are other ways in which a man
VINO talks too much can be made TO
feel the weight of official displeasure.

matter how brave a front he may pre-
sent to his constituents. and he

The main entrance and the adjacent
lobbies, ordinaries and corridors are
done in light marble. The dining

women are done in polished hard
woods. Over the Hobbies are galleries
crowded with palms. The hotel is
equipped with its own power plant,
which furnishes light, heat, power
and artesian water supply. The pow

building. A part of the lower floor is
fitted up for use as passenger station

Monthly Honor Roll.

The Public High School thirC
monthly report of honors exhibit the
names of those students who still are
continuing in the race for education
These students study not for daily
recitation, but for that power Of intel
lect upon which future success Is
builded. They are gaining that true
education, which consists not in few
facts, speedily learned and as is speedi
( ly forgotten, butrather in that ability
and dicipline of mind which does not
scorn fact, but aims primarily upon
intellectual acumen or power that
abides. The number continuing la
| this honor roll grows smaller, and thus
the honor becomes greater as the goal
is neared. The great irregularity of
attendance on the part of pupils in the
higher classes has done violence to
their standings, but we are still in
fluenced to say our kindly "Thank
you" to these parents who have ex-
pressed themselves as determined to
cooperate with US in removing all
such unnecessary obstacles to their
childrens' progress.
In this report Mrs. Carter's classes
are necessarily omitted owing to her
enforced absence from school at the
time of making reports.

In Memoriam.

Lines written in memory of Little Margaret
Flora Agnew, died April S. 1906
Xmas is near-the earth and the skies seem glad
The air is laden with stories sweet.
The south wind tells Of other joys
That are springing to life meath the azure sky:
The sun has smiled on the icy stream
And sent it hurrying along the way,
And wonderful treasures of Fragrant Life
Come out with the Light Of each opening day.
But alasl My flower that loved and watched
Till 1t grew TO be such treasure to me
Is dead from the touch Of some spelling hand.
Nothing can bring back its bloom to me
had thought of the pleasure this dear one would
be
While the winter winds were high
And rest in the sunshine of her love
AS the sun Of my life crept down the sky.
III.
But it fell untouched by slow decay,
Its sweet strength crushed in a single hour
While its beautiful face was fair to see
And its life seemed full of unmeasured power.
And |, who trained and loved It's growth
Stand here in the storm that my heart must brave.
And see nothing above but black. black sky
And nothing below but one precious grave.
w.
oh, my darling Maggie. they but talk in Wan
of hopes that mny rise from your tearstained
grave,
of fairer life in endless spring
only remember my darling is dead
/ can but look up to our Fathers face
And read. in its frownings. a blessing hid
All, no, can a blessing ever be given again
Like that lost one under the coffin lid
".
May God make me patient. teach me the way TO
walk
With weary feet towards the gathering night:
With this strange dumb grief, like a shadowy
cloud
Shutting away all of earth's sweet light.
I would ask no better blessing than this
Of the Father who pities our anguish deep,
rhan to go hand in hand to that hallowed spot.
