SAINT JOHN WANDERING OVER
THE FACE OF THE EARTH

If | Will that he should tarry TIL
/ come, what is that TO thee?
The Ages come and go
The Centuries pass as years;
My hair Is white as the snow,
The earth Is wet with my tears!
The Kingdoms crumble an fall
Apart like ruined wall,
Or bank that is undermined
BY a rivers ceaseless flow
And leave no trace behind.
The world itself is old;
The portals OF Time unfold
On hinges OF iron, that CRATE
And groan with the rust and the
weight,
Like the hinges OF gate
That hath fallen to decay.
But the evil doth not cease;
There Is war instead OF peace,
Instead OF love there is hate;
And still | must wander and wait.
Not forgetting in whose sight
A thousand years in their flight
Are as a single day.
The life of man is n CLEAN.
OF light that comes and goes
Like the course of the holy stream
The cityIess river that flows
From fountains no one knows
Through the lake of Galilee,
Through the forest and level lands
Ger rocks and shadows and sands
OF a wilderness wild and vast,
Till 1t findeth it's rest at last
In the desolate Dead Sea
But alas, alas for me!
What then? doth Charity fail?
Is Faith OF no avail?
Is hope blown out like n light
BY a gust OF wind in the night?
The clashing OF creeds and tho strife
OF the many beliefs, that in vain,
Perplex mans heart and brain,
Are naught but the rustic of leave
When the breath OF God upheave
The boughs Of the Tree of Life,
And they subside again.
And | remember still
The words and from whom they came
Not he that repeateth the name.
But he that doeth the will
And Him evermore | behold
Walking in Galilee,
Through the cornfield's waving gold.
In hamlet. in wood and on void,
BY the shores of the beautiful sea.
He toucheth the sightlsss eyes.
Before him the demons flee:
To the dead he sayeth: Arise!
To the living: Follow me!
And that voice still soundeth on
From the centuries that are gone
To the centuries that shall be.
From all vain pomps and shows,
From the pride that overhows,
And the false conceits of men;
From all the narrow rules
And subtleties of schools,
And crate of tongue and pen:
Bewildered in it's search.
Bewildered with the cry:
10, here! 10, there! the church:
Poor, sad humanity
Through all the dust and heat
Turns back with bleeding feet
BY the weary road it came,
Unto the simple thought
BY the great Master taught
And that remaineth stin;
Not he that repeateth the name.
But the that doeth the will!

GOSSIP OF THE BOROUGH
Waieroays Fast Disappearing Be
fore Real Estate Spectators.

The time is fast approaching when all the
waterways that once intersected the territory
included in the Borough of Brooklyn will be
filed in with the exception Of those which are
retained for canal purposes. As a rule, the
suamps and brooks have been filled in by real
estate SPECTATORS and builders else drained
off bv the city's sewer works However the
sewers usually follow the spectators.
4 movement is foot TO reopen a
partly blocked watercourse-Coney Island
Creek This branch of the sea- running from
Gravesend Bay SheepsheaG Bay. was at one
time considerable waterway but spectators
began to fill il in. An appeal was made by
fishermen and residents Of Coney Island TO
stop the work but il allowed to continue
along with the filling in Of the neighboring
swamp lands. People who live about the open
portions are now beginning another agitation
