TWO SONNETs.
BY the Late Louise Chandler Moulton

He Jacet.
So Love is dead that has been quick
so long,
Close, then his eyes, and bear him to
his rest,
With eglantine and myrtle on his
breast,
And leave him there, their pleasant
scents among.
And chant sweet and melancholy
song
About the charms whereof he was pos
sessed;
And how of all things he was loveliest,
And to compare with aught were him
to wrong.
Leave. him beneath the still and solemn
stars,
That gather and look down from their
far place
With their long calm our brief woes
to deride.
Until the Sun our Mornings gate un-
bars
And mocks, In turn. our sorrows with
his facet
And yet, had Love been Love, he had
not died.

THREE PERSONS
INSTANTLY KILLED
TWENTY OTHERS HURT, THREE
FATALLY, IN WRECK NEAR
SAMSON, ALA.

SAMSON, Ala, Sept. 14.-The log
train of the Henderson Boyd Lumber
Company was wrecked early today
about five miles north of Samson, kill
ing three persons outright and injur-
ing twenty others.
The dead. o. Stevenson, a con-
Wet guard; Joe Wise, laborer; Al
bert England, negro convict.
Seriously injured-Jim Donaldson,

pected to live; Conner Powell, not ex.
pected to live; ]. G. Jackson, engineer
on train, badly scalded; Foreman
Charlie Cloudy, Jim Holley, Will Jack
son, not expected to live.
The wreck occurred on a tressle
with a steep grade on either side. OF
the wounded, Williams, the wood
boss, and Powell were scalded so bad
ly that their skin peeled off. AT the
point where the wreck occurred the
road is new and the track had not
been graded The small ravine over
which the tressle stretched is marked
on either side by steep hills. The en-
gineer it is said, had orders to leave
half of his train on top of the hill, but
when he reached the point he start
ed over with the entire eighteen cars.
The train was backing and when sew
eral of the cars had started up the
incline it caused the center car to
buckle. The engine and entire train
left the track.
OF those on the train none worked
more faithfully than the convicts, and
the three dead bodies, with all the
injured We're moved by them from the
wreck by IL O'Clock and carried to
Richford on relief train.

BRYAN REFUSES
TO SPEAK SUNDAY
coMMoNER PUTS STRICT VETO
ON AN APPOINTMENT MADE
FOR HIM.
CONSENTS TO SHAKE HANDS
But He viii Make Up For Lost Time
in Strenuous Campaign This
Week.

DEER PARK. Nd, Sept. 1s-wn-
liam Jennings Bryan today put his
stamp Of disapproval on Sunday DO
litical speech-making when. without
his knowledge, the residents around
Mountain Lake Park were notified to
assemble there at O'Clock today to
hear him talk. over 1000 Of them
gathered while Mr.. Bryan, at Deer
Park, was protesting to a local com.
mittee that he would make no speech.
He finally was prevailed upon to take
the three-mile drive and shake hands
with those in the assemblage, with
the understanding that he should not
speak and that there should be no
handclapping. The people gave every
evidence of their pleasure at meeting
the Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent, even though they were disap-
pointed at not hearing him, and as he
departed they violated their pledge
and applauded him literally.
The day was one of absolute quiet
and rest with the exception of the
short journey to Mountain Lake Park,
and in consequence Mr.. Bryan pre-
pared himself for the strenuous week
ahead of him. He leaves tonight at
1888 o'clock for Baltimore, and is
due to arrive in that city at 1850
O'Clock in the morning.
