A Birthday. April %. 1901.


How fast the days come, how swift is
their flight,
As the hearts throbbing engine
drives on;
The soft flush of dawn, the moons
glaring light.
The shadows OF eve, the darkness of
night,
And, lol The days cycle is gone.
For babyhood's life was only span,
Bringing childhood and boyhood
apace;
Hopes and visions Of youth, strivings
of man,
Times banes and blessings, its purpose
and plan
Were comprised in very brief space.
Thus Few and evil the days of my
Times measurement just tifty-four,
But cycle in msrcies, griefs and fears,
In rapid review they're passing before,
Failures, triumphs; the calmness,
the strife.
Should the kind Father apportion Q
me
The year that shall count flfty-dve,
May the peals of life's clock-bell each
one be
Clear and sweet. making rich melody,
Making others glad I'm alive.

THERE Is some talk to the effect
that Governor Dawson may, sooner
or later, call an extra session OF the
Legislature to take action on certain
measures, including revenue laws, a
primary election law, a local option
law, and perhaps other matters that
get .cant consideration at the regular
sessions.
We favor such a move. 1t is al
most impossible to secure comprehen-
,ive or unprejudiced consideration Of
important bills at ordinary sessions,
for 30 many interests are to be re-
parded and there lie so much pulling
and hauling that the forty-6ve days
pass away without accomplishing
much outside OF the appropriation
bills. We think the Governor would
do the State pubic service by at
least making an effort to secure fav-
orable action upon the matters that
he regards as good for the people.
And we further suggest that he
name the subjects some months in ad.
vance, 80 that the people will have
ample time to discuss them and i'm
press their views upon their repre-
sentatives in the Legislature.

A ritiful Tragedy in Virginia.

One of the eaddest romances that
has come to our attention in some
years is the pitiiul story Of Mabel
Pendleton and Stuart G. Gay, two
Young lovers who came to an I'M
timely end by drowning in the jack
son river at Clifton Forge, Va, last
Thursday. Miss Pendleton was II
and Gay was only Is years old. and
because of their youth their parents
refused to let them wed. although
they were desperately in love with
each other. After last fruitless ap.
peal for consent, they planned a run
away and quietly disappeared togeth-
er.
When their absence was discovered
the parents jumped to the conclusion
that they would seek to make Wash.
ineton their Gretna Green. The po.
lice of intervening towns were wired
to be on the watch, and as result
the runaways were captured at Staun-
ton and brought back.
Shortly before 6 o'clock the sweet
hearts were seen in excited converse
ton in Main street. The boy seemed
| to be demonstrating with the girl. and
| it is believed he was trying to dis
| suade her from self-destruction.
Presently she started for the suspen-
sion bridge, the boy following and
pleading with her at every step.
There are those who say he tried to
detain her by force. But she shook
him off and ian. arriving breathless
at the middle of the bridge while he
was yet perhaps 60 yards behind.
The gill paused, glanced over the
rail at the water cleaning with the
rays of the morning sun, then turned
| and looked for an instant into the
white, agonized face of her sweetheart,
who by now was nearly at her side.
With a bound she cleared the railing
| and a moment later was swallowed
up by the water. Without hesitating
an instant young Gay leaped after
her, coming down in the water only
a few feet from where she had risen
struggling to the surface. He seized
her and tried to swim ashore with
her, but she tightly clasped her arms
about his neck and the sweethearta
sank to their deaths locked in each
others arms.
An aged negro passing to his work
saw the tragedy. When he realized
that the youth unaid d was not equal
to the task of rescue he bravelY drop
ped into the stream, all dressed as he
was, and stanchly struck out to swim
to the succor of the struggling couple.
But his clothes were heavy and soak
ed with water, they were too great a
handicap for his aged limbs, and be
was forced to leave the lovers to their
fate. He was barely able to founder
ashore in time to save his own life.
The bodies were recovered from
the water on Saturday, and on Mon.
day the two unfortunates were buried
in the same grave. The parents art
greatly distressed ovei the occurrence.
