IN THE FIRELIGHT.
nth Ia low

The fire upon the hearth is low
And there is stiffness everywhere,
While winged spirits here and
there,
Like freight shadows muttering go,
And as the shadows round me creep,
A childish treble breaks the gloom,
And softly from a further room
Comes, Nov I lay me down t,
Sleep"
And somehow with that little prayer
And that sweet treble in my ears,
My thoughts go back to distant
years
And linger with loved one there;
And as I hear my child's Amen,
My mothers faith comes back to
Crouched at her side I seem to be
And mother holds my hands again.
Oh, for an hour in that dear place!
Oh, for the place of that dear time!
Oh, for the childish trust sublime!
Oh, for a glimpse of mothers face!
Yet, as the shadows round me creep
do not seem to be alone
Sweet magic Of that treble tone,
And Nov lay me down to sleep.

Some Mckee Citizens Will Present
Protest to Commissioners.

A petition is being circulated in
the Mckee valley to restrain the
Yakima Inter-Valley Traction COM
pany from using any of the county
roads for the construction Of an
electric railroad. This move is
headed by F. DeLegssie, L. Charount
and Joe Moirier, and about twenty
five have thus far signed the petition.
They contend that the county roads
are not wide enough to warrant the
use Of them for that purpose. The
county commissioners have set March
/ as the date Of hearing of the a2-
plication of the traction company
for franchise, and one Of the prime
movers of the petition stated that
he would be present at the hearing
and present the petition, which would
be signed by large number OF the
Mckee citizens.
A meeting has been held in the
Mckee, which was attended by i
number Of citizens and the matter

Normal School Notes

Miss Carr, who has been suffering
from an abcess in her ear, has been
obliged to return to her home in Ia
coma for few days.
Principal w. E. Wilson and DR..
Mahon, president of the board of d.
rectors, have been called to the
sound on business connected with
the school.
Last Friday night was the date set
for the Rogers-Grilley recital, but
owing to the irregularity of the
trains, Mr.. Rogers and Mr.. Grilley
were unable to arrive on time to
give the entertainment. The audi
ence, however, had gathered, but
not in vain, for by the prompt action
Of Mr.. Wilson, a very entertaining
program by home talent was speed
lily prepared. The audience was
highly pleased and appreciative, for
one seldom has the opportunity to
be given such an entertainment free.
Miss Thomas gave several interest
ing readings, and anyone who has
heard Miss Thomas recite can testify
to her ability as reader. Mrs.
Slemmons, we'll known for her mus
ical talent, favored the assembly
with a number of vocal solos. The
Treble Clef being we'll drilled by Miss
Sabelwitz, were prepared to give
some choice selections in songs. Miss
Florence Gibson pleased the audience
with some violin solos. Miss Sabel-
WITT contributed largely to the pro-
gram through her musical ability.
Altogether, a very enjoyable evening
was spent and all felt we'll recon-
pensed for their previous disappoint-
ment.
Owing to the delay, the Rogers
Grilley Company was unable to meet
the engagement in Butte Monday
night. 1t was decided that they
would stay until Monday in Ellens-
burg, and give their entertainment
Monday night. This arrangement
was approved by the audience, and
much larger assembly gathered on
Friday night. The recital was the
best number of the Concert Course
1t is rare treat to hear a harp
played, especially by one so adept as
Mr.. Rogers. Mr.. Grilley possesses
considerable ability as a comedian,
so his humorous selections Furnishes
much amusement and received hearty
applause. The audience were mucn
pleased by the way encores were re-
sponded to.
DR.. Munson White, student at
Yale, was an attendant upon a course
given by Prof Sneed, head of the de-
partment of education. 1t was for
this reason, perhaps, that DR.. Mum
son chose as the subject Of his
Thursday talk this week Prof.
Sneed's recent book, 1.-THE Mind of
Tennyson. The talk presented the
contrast between the poet and the
scientist.
The girls of the senior class have
challenged the other girls of the
school to game of basket ball in
the gymnasium this week.

THE ORIGINAL,

have continually asked for delay. 1t
is for this reason that the case has
been postponed from time to time.
The county authorities have con-
cluded to have the hearing whether
Hawkins attorneys are prepared or
not, because the man has lain in Jail
for so many months.
Hawkins has served one term in
the penitentiary, having been sent
enced to a year from Kittitas county
for robbery. He was released about
a year ago and has been in trouble a
number of times since. He is an at
torney who was formerly news
paper man at Minneapolis.
His father is a highly respected
citizen at New Richmond, Wis. He
has written the sheriff to intercede
in his sons behalf, whom he asserts
is of unsound mind. He states that
the young man has been mentally
unbalanced ever since the big cy-
clone that devastated New Richmond,
in which disaster all the members of
the Hawkins family were killed with
the exception of Hawkins and his
father.
Mr.. Hawkins asked that an exam
ination be made as to the sanity of
his son, but the authorities are sat
isfied that at the present he is per-
fectly sane and never had physicians
examine his mental condition.
