Longing

Come to me in my Dreams and then
BY day shall be well again.
For then the night viii more than pay
The hopeless longing OF the day.
Come, as thou cam'st a thousand times.
A message from the radiant ciimes.
And smile on thy new world, and be
AS kind to others as to me.
Or, as thou never cam'st IN sooth.
Come now, and let me dream II truth.
And part my hair and kiss my brow,
And say. MY lovel why sufferest
thou?"
Come to me In my dreams. and then
BY day shall be well again,
For then the night will more than pay
The hopeless longing Of the day.

DOVER. Jan. 1S.-A woman appear
ed before the joint session OF the De-
aware Legislature yesterday ana aa-
dressed the legislators for nearly an
hour on "Normonism." She was Mrs.
Maria Weed, head Of the w. c. I. U.
department which is waging war
against polygamy. In an eloquent
speech she told the legislators, in urg-
ing the passage of a joint resolution
pressing Congress for a convention to
propose an amendment to the consul
tuition prohibiting bigamy or polygamy'
that;
"Polygamy is still being practiced in
this country to a monstrous extent.
That Joseph Smith, himself, head OF
the church. admits its practice and
is the father of forty-three children,
twelve of whom have been born OF
five wives since the Mormon manifesto
Of 1890.
In 1901, the Utah Legislature, being
controlled by the Mormon Church
passed the Evans bill providing that
no person. could be convicted Of prac-
ticing polygamy except upon the tes-
tipony of a wife or child, well knowing
that such testimony could never be OBJ
tanned from a Mormon without the
giver was damned to eternal death.
"That missions are still being es-
tablished in the East and in New Yori
city and the best universities are full
OF students being educated and equip
lped for the Mormon country.
There are instances on official rec.
ord where a man has married a grand.

Peep at Spring Fashions

Stripes and cross-barred effects are
as much in favor as ever. Checks.
dots and spots are also numerous in the
best classes Of fabrics.
satin stripe and bars on silk and
wool grounds are especially prevalent
among the voiles and other sheer cling
ing fabrics.
The rough pongees have come back
with reinforcements. Heretofore the
majority Of them have been plain. but
this season they are plaided, blocked
striped and cross-barred.
Many Of the new tailor-mades ready
for Southern wear show the popular
hip-iength coat and the jaunty little
Eton.
Loose coats reaching an inch or two
below the waist line are also smart.
These are seen I'm stylish linen suits
for Southern travellers. When well cut
easy and graceful, they are chic be-
yond words.
Cray and white striped marquisetto
is among the new showings of spring
dress material. It is delightful in its
sheer, silky beauty.
Like rajah in weave, though OF a
much higher lustre. is a new silk ma
terial. It is made only in the light
pasted shades. so will be used more fol
afternoon and evening frocks than fol
street suits.
The foulards shown are decidedly
pretty and, unlike those that have
been worn the past two or three sea-
sons. few of them are in floral design
instead, the backgrounds are of wid'
OF narrow stripes, with geometric oi
scroll patterns.
