The star. (Reynoldsville, Pa.) 1892-1946, 1907-06-26

And he dreamed Of the gold that would
be increased
or the gorgeous glory OF Eastern life;
OF the flowers perfume and the splen-
did feast;
or the vizer's daughter he would take
for his wife,
OF his. naughty pride when She kneit
at his feet:
He would spurn her away as she trem'
bled there
He spurned; and his basket crashed into
the street,
While his wonderful castles fell out Of
the air.
And he gazed on the ruin with face long
drawn,
While the crowd passed on-passed idly
on.
All, many there be with talents spread
TO the careless gaze of the multitude,
Who sit and dream with lowered head.
And alf-indifferent, half-subdued,
Await the coming of those who buy;
And wait in vain, for the buyers pass,
And all too late their plaintive cry
When hopes are shattered like broken
glassl
And they sit and mourn for fortune gone.
While the world goes on-unheeding on.

in too many instances, and under cfrcum-
stances of too great mystery to be easily
| forgotten. In fact no small part Of the
bitterness expressed by Captain Lawton
against the peddler arose from the unac-
countable disappearance Of the latter
| when intrusted to the custody of two Of
his most faithful dragons.
He sat in portentous silence brooding
over the exploit of his prisoner until a
trumpet suddenly broke on the ears of the
party sending its martial tones up the
valley in startling melody. The trooper
rose instantly from the table exclaiming {:
Quick gentlemen to your horses there
comes Dunwoodie," and, followed by his
officers, he precipitately left the room.

One of the prettiest sights to be seen
In any of the parks that boast fountains
aud water lilies is the bathing of the
birds. The little fellows hop from one
lily pad to another until they find one
that dips enough to take on water, and
here, in the round. green, floating tub
provided by nature, they flutter and
flourish until the bath is accomplished.

Young Wharton very composedly did as
was required; and stood an extremely
handsome, well-dressed young man. The
dragoon looked at him for n moment with
the drollery that characterized his man

"And l, sir, am Captain Wharton, of

The countenance of Lawton changed

vanished. He viewed the figure of Cap

Whartons observed the dragoon, on gain

his two subalterns- In a few moments
orders were given to some of the troop,
and horsemen left the valley, at full
speed, by various roads.
The heavy tread of the dragoon soon
announced his second approach. He bow

Dogs this Morning-Nar-
row Escape.

Miss Louise Keeley. the young lady
who is chief operator for the Colo

this morning that came near ending
seriously.
Miss Kelley, who resides at 1107
Gunnison avenue. started from home
early this morning for the telephone
Office. She was on her wheel. She
had only gone short distance along
the street when four vicious dogs ran
out at her. She was knocked from
her wheel and dragged into the dust.
Snarling and biting the dogs seized
the young lady. Miss Kelley gained
control of herself and defended her
self as best she could. She held the
dogs at bay until assistance came
and the animals driven away. The
young lady badly bruised. severely
shocked and frightened. and with her
clothing torn in many places, return
ed to her home. Fortunately she was
not seriously hurt but suffered such
a shock that she was unable to go on
duty this morning.
