CRIMES OF WAR AND GOLD.

we perceive InaC ancient crimes
Were in some ways less degrading
Than the sins of modern times.
For at present men no longer
Have a shadow of excuse
For the doctrine that the stronger
May the weaker race abuse
Yet the color of ones fellows
Still discrimnates their rights,
And the blacks and browns and vel
lows
Are still bullied by the whites.
We condemn old Rome's decision
To be mistress of the world,
But she never stamped Religion
On the banners she unfurled;
Rome made no pretense of praying
For loving Fathers aid
In the grewsome work of Staying
Fellow-creatures he had made;
Yet we moderns praise God loudly,
If some slaughter is complete,
And each warning nation proudly
Claims that God is with its fleet
Quite forgetting that the Savior,
On whose aid they always count,
Taught a contrary behavior
In his Sermon on the Mount.
1t is time to cease pretending
We are followers of the Lord"
Till we make thorough ending
Of the deeds that he abhorred;
Fer our preaching and our shooting
Make, cobined, sorry jest
To the heather we are looting
With so much un-Christian zest.
See the trail of human shambles
To secure the pagan's best,
And should these resist invasion,
And like men their homes defend,
Mark the mild assimilation
Which their conquerors extend
Is there any leading nation
Without blood-spots on its hands,
Gained by shameful spoliation
OF some weaker peoples lands?
What, o England, mean thy presence
On those snow-felds lately wet
With the blood of simple peasants
In the cloudlands of Thibet?
From Zambesi to Nigeria,
From Morocco to the Rand,
BY the Congo, in Algeria.
From the brave Herreros' land,
Comes the tragic revelation
Of the white mans mailed fist,
And the sure determination
Of the natives who resist.
Does it rest, then, on some reason
OF geography or time
Whether bravery be treason,
Or 6 deed men call sublime?
To the tyrant all resistance
Is rebellion" to be crushed,
But behold it from distance,
When the victims voice is hushei
Thus the fair Boadicea,
Who her Britons bravely LED
Till she saw the Romans flee her
From a field bestrewn with dead,
Has statue, and is cherished
As the first of British queens
But such conduct is not relished
In the modern Philippines
So Arminius and his heroes,
Who repealed the hosts OF Rome,
Did no more than the Herreros,
Fighting now for hearth AMI home
Yet those Teutons are now lauded
As the saviors of the Rhine,
While Herreros are defrauded.
And, by Germans, shot as swine. :
Has the twentieth century brought u
Nothing better than Wars curse?
Has the dreary past not taught us
War is folly, if no worse?
Yet with thousands never tasting
Wholesome food with famished lips
See the millions We are wasting
Upon guns and armored ships.
Can the old plea still deceive us
That great navies make for peace,
When no country will believe us,
And all ornaments increase?

"COFFEE JAGS."

came subject to what the doctor call
ed coffee jags' and felt like I have
heard men say they feel who have
drank too much rum. 1t nauseated
me, and | felt as though there was
nothing but coffee flowing through
my veins.
Coffee agreed well enough for a
time. but for a number of years have
known that l. was doing me great
harm. but, like the rum topper, /
thought could not get along without
it. 1t made me nervous, disordered
my digestion, destroyed my sleep and
brought on frequent and very distress
ing headaches.

q coffee Jag on, / would give up
drinking it for a few days till my
stomach regained a little strength,
but | was always frettul and worried
and nervous till was able to resume
the use of the drug.
About year ago | was persuaded
to try Postum, but as got it in res
taurants it was nothing but sloppy
mess, sometimes cold, and always
weak, and of course I didn't like it.
Finally l prepared some myself, at
home, following the directions care
fully, and found it delicious. / perse-
vered in its use, quitting the old cot
fee entirely, and feeling better and
better each day, till found at last,
to my great joy, that my ailments had
all disappeared and my longing for
coffee had come to an end.

100000 Trout Fry Planted in Rivers in
Dunn County.
Four hundred and eighty thousand
trout fry have been placed in the
streams of Dunn county, and it is eX-
pected that in the course of year or
so trout fishing will be at its best in
that vicinity. The fry came from the
United States fish hatchery at Man
chester, Iowa.
The planting of the fry is the result
of organized effort on the part OF the
local spOrtsmen interested in the re-
stocking of the trout streams in that
county. 1t is hoped that the planting
of the fry may be continued for sew
eral years and that eventually Dunn
county streams will afford the best
fishing for the speckled beauties OF
any place in the state. A consignment
of the fry probably will be sent to the
state fish hatchery at Madison this
month.

Damage Claim at Hudson Decided IN
Favor of Defendant.

The case of Mrs. Walter Stevens OF
Minneapolis against Christian Burk

in favor of the defendant at Hudson.
The plaintiff sought to prove that her
husband, Walter Stevens, lineman IN
the employ OF the Northwestern Tele-
phone company, came to his death at
Hudson, July IA, 1905, while splicing
a cable at the top of telephone pole,
through the fault of the light company
as an electric wire of that company
with power turned on gave him fatal
shock. The defense proved by us VIII
nesses that Stevens knew that the
power was on at the time and had
been warned to wait until it was turn
ed off. After hearing the testimony
Judge Helmes took the cas-" away from
the jury and ordered a verdict IN FAVOR
of the defendant.-W.
