TINGE OF AUTUMN.

Red CLEAN the leaves on yonder trees,
To later turn to gold;
A hint of frost is in the breeze,
And bleak's the distant wold
The smoke curs upward slow and white,
And far across the hill
There gnts the roadway in the night
The morn is crisp and chill
The sun sinks desoate to rest
Behind the church's spire;
The afterglows dull in the west,
Where once were skies of fire.
The songsters' tunes are not so sweet,
The frail. belated blooms
Give hint of winters ice and .sleet
Low hanging clouds and glooms.
The moon across the dome rides white,
The skies are jewel set;
The dew falls soft from out the night
The grass Is sparkling wet
The spoil that vine and tree have doled
Is safely housed with care;
The stubble CLEANS like FURNISHED gold
And-Autumns everywherel

Of Bud Strain, who lived about half
mile away, was destroyed by fire at
500 o'clock Sunday night. 1t had

freely expressed that it was set on fire,
but by whom no one can say. Large
fresh tracks were found in the sanad

nearest house is about four blocks
away, and when the neighbors reached
the scene the house was a mass OF
