CURRENT VERSE.



Across the land at morn she went whom
we had watched and kept.
SO like lily when she woke a rose Leaf
when she slept
Across the land when night had flown
and all the skies were still.
She passed into the light that lay upon
the awakening hills
Across the land az morn she went whom
we had failed 10 keep.
SO like a glory when awake. a shadow
when asleep:
No breath OF moaning or distress, but
soft as step OF dawn
The rustic or the wings OF white her
spirit had put on
Across the land at morn she went, nor
had We any thought
or such a change. OF such q strange. sad
difference IL wrought.
For dumb we look across the land whose
glory was our light
AS II the day had changed TO gray end
noon were as the night
Across the land at morn she went. and
morn is morn no more;
The dawn. the dew. the bird. the bloom.
not as they were before.
Across the land az morn she went, and
with her went the CLEAN

Litieation Over Childrea at an End.

What is believed to be the closing chapter in the celebrated Clifton fouudling case has been written and the incident which three years ago stirred the entire southwest and be- came in time one of national fame Is probably closed forever. J. c. Gatti has been sent word by his attorney, Walter Bennett of Phoenix, that he had at last secured through the courts of New York the sum of S7SO 80, the amount of costs in the noted case, for which judgment was found in the supreme court of the United States against the New York Founding Hospital, when the highest tribunal made final decision in favor of the Clifton families which had taken seventeen babies from as many Mexican families, to which had been instrusted these children by the agent of the hospital. Approxi- mately S6O0O has been spent by Ari- zonans in fighting the battle for the possession ot the children and many times that amount would have been expended had it been necessary. 1t was four years ago in October that Agent Swain of the New York Found ling hospital brought to Clifton forty two waifs. The story of how EugliSt speaking families ot Clifton and Mo renci obtained the homeless babies i still fresh in the minds of those wh' lived in the southwest four years ago Subsequently, all but seventeen of tho l children were returned to the hospi tai authorities. With the eXcep tion of the two who sucCumbed, al of the children are alive and happ

 case was tried was the probate cour

Land and Mineral Decisions.

Synopses of decisions furnished by Woodtord D. Harlan, land attorney, Washington, D. c.
 Coal land: On failure to make proof and payment within the statu tory period the filing should be can celed if, after due notice, the claim ant does not comply with the law.
 Entry: Local officers may use all means of knowledge at command in ascertaining the validity of an entry.
 Meandered stream: An entry lying on both sides of meandered stream will not be disturbed where it is shown by the records of survey that such stream should not have been meandered.
 Final proof: Should receive special scrutiny when made within the short est possible period.
 Homestead disqualification: A fraudulent deed purporting to convey d tract from homesteader to his son, will not relieve the entrymar from disqualification imposed upor persons that own more than l60 acre: of land, such disqualification also eX tends to one who holds lands under { contract of purchase, though tho payments hereunder have not beer completed.
 Mineral lands: Proximity of lan' to coal veins will not alone warran the conclusion that it is mineral il character

GREAT CAVE NEAR THOMAS.
Opening in the Earth of Wonderful
 Dimensions Opened up by Miners.

A wild, weird story comes from Fort Thomas of the uncovering of a vast cave near that town. It was found by Wiley Holladay, s. l.. Dodge and Martin Tighe, who are develop ing a claim four miles south of h. dian Hot spring in the Graham mountains.
 According to reports, the miners were driving a tunnel in the mOun- tain side, which was in several hum dred feet. When the smoke and debris of a shot had cleared away they were somewhat surprised to find that the breast of the tunnel had disappeared and nothing but impene- trable darkness met their gaze, giv- ing back to them with audible articu- lation the hollow echoes of a giant tomb.
 With lights and ropes an investiga- tion was commenced and it was dis covered that an underground cave of wonderful dimensions had been pene- trated, with an undoubted hidden passageway, which, as yet, has not been found. From the tunnel en- trance the men lowered themselves t. the bottom of the subterranean cavity by an improvised rope ladder.
 They found gigantic deposits of puano, in which were buried large quantities of Indian arrows and blocks of wood sewn together with sinews, probably taken from the deer. They were in a broken and decayed condition and it would be hard to de- termine the use to which they had been put by the Indians. Other In- dian relics of an interesting nature were found and the research has not been completed.
 It is believed that the cave was occupied as temple or secret meet ing place by the Indians of long ago and that the natural entrance had been blockaded by a rock slide An effort will be made to locate and re- open the original passageway, and then the cave will be given more thorough exploration.-Guardian.
