Mrs. Fannie D. Fox, of 7 Chestnut

NV God KnOweth Best.

When friendly night IS come. and leave

Whether we wake to smile or weep,
Or wake no more on Times fair shore,

We lay US down to sleep.
As sinks the sun in western skies,
When day is done and twilight dim
Comes silent on;
So fades the worlds most Turing prize
On eyes ,ha, close in deep repose.
Till wakes the dawn.
Why vex our soul with wearing care?
Why shun the grave for aching head
So cool and low!
Have We found life so passing fair,
So grand to be. so sweet that we
Should dread to go!

IL so it seemeth best, the task
By US begun.
No work for which we need to wake,
In joy or grief. for life so brief.

PLAN A GIGANTIC DRYDock.
Largest Structure of Its Kind to Be
Erected on Puget Sound.

Neutrality-suspicious. for the largest
and best drydock in the world are
being prepared in the bureau of yards
and docks at the navy department.
The last naval appropriation act con-
tanned provision for a dock to cost
s1,250,000 to be CONSTRUCTED at the
Bremerton navy yard, Puget Sound,
Washington. This amount is larger
than ever heretofore appropriated for
dock and the new dock will when
completed be able to take in the
largest battleship either in course of
construction or in contemplation
The location for the dock Has already
been selected at the yard and borings
are now being made to learn the
depth of the foundation. 1t is to be
concrete dock of the latest pattern
and the materials will be purchased
on the Pacific coast if practicable.
The dock is to be so constructed
that it can be heightened il vessels of
greater length should be built in the
future. 1t will be 81 feet in depth.
which will provide for the docking Of
any vessel that can be built unless
some unknown system of building is
developed. The greater depth of the
new dock is also designed to meet
cases where vessel has been injured
and draws much more than the or
dinary depth on account of the -,
jury.
