THE DYING YEAR.

Speak softly and low-the old year is
dying;
Saying farewell to all it holds
dear;
Gently and tenderly for it we are
sighiDg,
No longer Withholding the unshed
tear.
We greeted it's birth with Joy and
and gladness.
bidding it welcome our sad hearts
to cheer.
Yet knowing to many it would bring
much Of sadness
To friends who to us are so precious
and dear
Fond memory recalls the hope Of its
springtime
And the beautiful flowers Of summer
SO fair,
That filled all the air with their
fragrance sublime.
Banishing much Of our sorrow and
care.
1t brought many clouds, but much
more of sunshine;
Then let US forget the shadows that
came;
1t only brought us our share Of its
fulness,
Whether Of happiness, pleasure or
pain.
And now we must say farewell for
ever;
Old Father Time no longer will
wait;
The fond ties that bound us, he is
ready to sever,
And to usher the New Year in
! through the gate.

Congressman James E. Watson of
Indiana, the new whip Of the house
Republicans, is comparatively a young
man to bear that honor, being but
slightly over forty years old. Yet he
has served long in congress, being now

college, a green lawyer at Rushville,
in the HeOsier State, he went into a
campaign for congress pitted against
the veteran Democrat, William S. Hol-
man, famous as ''the watchdog Of the
treasury" Watson won out after a
contest that is still the talk of the
Sixth Indiana district. His election
as whip means that one day he is like
