NATURES CALL
BY William John Hogan.

Sitting at my open window,
BY the midnights silent gloom,
Fancy led me there and yonder,
over fields where clovers bloom;
Across the seas. midst raging tempests
over lofty mountain peaks.
Through a chasm rent by torrents.
There where Gentle Nature speaks.
From the mists Of surging waters
Rose a figure tall and fair.
Smiling bland in sweet contentment,
At the picture mirrowed there;
She laid one hand upon the mountains.
Placed a foot upon the sea.
Out Of chaos summoned order.
order? Yesl What else could bef
Harkl heard a voice triumphant.
Tell the seasons come and 60,
Bid the sun shine out resplendent,
order down the falling snow:
Guide the river on It's journey.
Bid the tides arise and fall.
In amazement. there pondered,
At the granduer OF Il al.
Then all vanished, mount and meadow
Surging sea and ethereal sky.
Mans ambition, lost in shadow,
Natures call said "ail must die"
10, IN panoramic vision,
Passed the mortals I had known.
In procession, grand. unending.
There where Nature stood alone.
First the saint and then the sinner,
Tyrants and reformers. too,
Cold hearted. those Of cruel murder.
Came TO Nature, there to sue;
For a pardon. lest their actions.
In distress might them enthrall
But on all She smiled while saying:
Each responded TO My call"

HOTELS PREPARED FOR
HOT SUMMER WEATHER

of the apartment hotels the hangings
are covered with linen, if they are
not removed entirely, the chairs and
sofas are also fitted with gayly COL
ored cretonnes and as a final touch
even the piano is shrouded with a
covering so that no one can possibly
add to the nervous strain of the hot
weather by playing on it.
But it is in the largest hotels that
the amount of work done in prepar-
alton for the summer season in town
is most apparent. The public rooms,
and particularly those devoted to eat
ing, are changed about in surprising
manner, a dining-room here being
closed entirely, another one being
transformed into lounge with wicker
chairs and tables where those who
come in to dine may have their coffee
served in surroundings even more airy
and cool than any regular dining
room can be. The regular furnishings
of the rooms for eating also enjoy a
change, particularly in respect to the
chairs, for every one of these that
has touch of padding on it is .rele-
gated to the storerooms, leaving only
ones with can seats and backs in use-

Six more years must pass before
the great memorial to Queen Victoria,
which is to be erected in front of
buckingham palace, can be complet-
ed. Slow progress on the gigantic
work for the last six years has. caused
much public criticism from time to
time, and the king, it is said, recently
expressed himself as disappointed that
greater progress had not been made.
Leading sculptors, who are familiar
with the magnitude of the undertake
ing, say that it cannot be completed
before 1913, and that IL years is not
much time to put on a piece of work
of such size and magnifcence. The
central figure of the memorial will he

Half a Billion for Bridues.

Every body thinks of New York as
the city of big constructive perform
ances, and it never disappoints Here
we find big men with big brains and
unlimited capital. AS one prodigious
example, plans are now under way by
which within few years eight NAM
moth bridges, affording by far the
greatest centralized traffic facilities in
the world, will yoke Manhattan island
to it's suburban shores, says Broadway
Magazine. At least one of these big
bridges will exceed in size the famous:
Forth cantilever bridge in Scotland,
now the largest on the globe; another
will excel in capacity the old Brook
Ign bridge, which now has the largest
bridge traffic in the world. The big
gest bridge, which, of course, will
span the noble Hudson, may cost any,
where between $50,00O,00O and $780,
100000, while the other structures
will run the aggregate cost of New
York's bridges up to about $25O,O00,-
900. About 1915 New York's total bill
for bridges and tunnels will approx
mate round half billion of dollars
all spent to aid transportation in and
out of the first city in America.

house. These Offices are connected
by direct wire with the executive OF.
fees adjoining the White House at
Washington. The clerks at the CAPT.
tai are therefore in as close touch
with their immediate chief, Mr.. Loeb,
as If he were in his own Office there.
Mr.. Loeb, in turn, is in constant touch
with the president. The whole ar
rangement works out in the same
manner as if the capital and all the
departments had been moved from
Washington to Oyster Bay.
One difference is that the president
never visits the executive Offices in
Oyster Bay. Whatever business re-
quires to be brought to his attention
is taken up by Secretary Loeb to Sag
amore Hill. Mr.. Loeb goes to the
president in the forenoon about II
o'clock, after he has gone through the
mail and sorted out from it the letters
and official papers which need. to pass
under the executive eye or hand. S8ome
days Mr.. Loeb gets back to the village
in time to put in an hours work be-
fore luncheon. More often his lunch
con has to wait an hour for him.

national census to be taken in 1910.

The millions of people who inhabit the
United States are to be enumerated.
together with the livestock, and COM
prehensive reports also are sought on
the innumerable industries of the
country, it's development and re-
sources. That all of this can be done
with absolute accuracy is out of the
question, but that it can be done in a
far more thorough manner than the
census records of the past bear out in
many, many instances is certain. saws
Poppyland. The faithful enumerators
are in the minority, and in self-protec-
ton the interested public should see
to it that returns as nearly correct as
1t is humanity possible to make them
should be sent to Washington for
final summing up and publication.
