THE VANITY OF WISHES.

THE VANITY OF WISHES. Where'er you go,
 You'll find old men Who prate about What might have been And waste their brlefs Declining days In pointing out
 The divers ways By which they might Have gathered wealth, Had they had chance And luck and health. In muffled words
 They rail at fate And murmur still,
 Tt is too late" So, harried by
 This vain regret, They stumble to The grave. And yet, slaa' A mind to be
 Content with less Would have procured Them happiness.

Thinks Bryan's Election Assured.

Tt will make little difference" said John ". Tomlinson. whom the repub- r. licans nominate against MT. Bryan, whose nomination, according to the press dispatches from all parts of the country, seems now an assured fact.
 "The republican party will be held responsible for the present financial troubles. Such has been the history of political parties. The shutting down of industries, the curtailment of business, the throwing of men out of employment, all over the country, when there is no reason for 1t, will be visited on the party which has control of all the departments of the federal govern ment.
 "Furthermore, they will not have the immense corruption fund which they have had in the past presidential cam paigns. Officials will be afraid to ap- propriate for election purposes the funds of their companies since the dis closures brought out in the investi- gations ofSthe insurance companies in New York.
 '"The democratic party is going to make the strongest race in it's history next year, and the result of 1t will find Bryan President of the United States.

Puqh Feels Confident.

"There is no doubt in my mind but that Bryan will be nominated for Pres .dent by tho democratis, an dalso that he will be elected to the office" said John c. Pugh last night. "The people have the geratest confidence in the world in him, because he has shown himself to be a man of backbone, a. man who has stuck to his principles and man who has proven himself to be of the people. His principles are democratic. and they are going to pre- vail. Another thing which is going to hurt the republicans is that campaign appropriations will be much smaller than heretofore, because the big cor porations will be wary of taking chances like they have in the past. don't believe there is a more popular man in the country than Bryan, and he is worthy of the confidence which the people have reposed in him."

THE WAY TT STRIKES US. Let others grasp the empty air And seek for baubles vain, The end can only be despair Twill only give them pain.

The world is wet with idle tears That never shall avail, The sum and substance Of the years Is but sorry tale. Old trouble came along with bliss The day your life began. You might as well-remember this Be living while you can. Some pleasures you may not enjoy We grant that's very true, And others. not denied, will cloy And get the best of you. But striving for content, you wis, Is much. the better plan. You might as wel-remember this Be living while you can. At present, money is not talking above a whisper.

A Big Fight Over an Estate Promised
A caveat to the second and later will of Mrs.
Susanna Griffin, which was offered for probate
in Baltimore city on Thursday of last week,
was filed in the Orphans Court on Friday by
her niece, Mrs. Phoebe ]. Bayne, through
Messrs. 2. Howard Isaac and w. Gill Smith,
attorneys, of Towson.
Notice of another caveat TO the same will
was filed by Mrs. Griffin's niece, Mrs. Susanna
Nugent, and the latter's children-Grace and
William Nugent-through Mr.. Edwin H.
BROMLEY, attorney.
Mrs. Griffin died August IS. Her first will,
dated July 6, 1908, was admitted to probate and
letters on the estate were granted to w. Gill
Smith. who was named as executor, and who
gave bond for So, 900. The second will is
dated July 6, 1907. Each will was signed by
Mrs. Griffin with a cross-mark.
1t is alleged in the caveat that Mrs. Griffin
did not understand the provisions of the Sec
ond will. 1t is also alleged that she was not of
sound mind when it was made and that undue
influence was used to make her execute it.
Mrs Griffin was the widow of James Griffin,
a Towson stonemason, and sister of the late
Jacob Wisner, of Baltimore county.
