House of Correction Sweeper Skipped
Out Yesterday.

Rutland, July 14.-"Hurdy" Cline of
West Rutland well known character,
While sweeping out the Office at the
house of correction yesterday about 7
o'clock decided he wanted to escape and
so took "French leace." About 30
minutes later he was captured by Dep
uty Sheriff John +. Smith who is en-
ployed at the house Of correction.
Hudy had been allowed TO work in the
corridors, instead of the shop, because
lie had an injured wrist. He was com
mitied to the institution from West
Rutland July !, for intoxcation and
breach Of the peace. His sentence would
have expired September II but he will
now have to commence over again.
Hurdy went along State street as
far as Columbian avenue; then cut
through the Columbian Quarrying com
pany's yard to the hills and waded
through Otter creek to the creek road
where he was overtaken by Mr.. Smith
and B. B. Bree who had him in sight
most of the time. He was brought
back to the jail and locked up in a
closed cell where he will probably pass
the next five days.
It is possible that charge will be
brought against the runaway for break
ing jsil.

SWEET ARE THE CHARMS"

[Song by Barton Booth, actor, 1881
1873.
Sweet are the charms of her l love,
More fragrant than the damask rose,
Soft as the down Of turtle. dove,
Gentle as air when zephyr blows,
Refreshing as descending rains
To sunburnt climes and thirsty plains.
True as the needle to the pole,
Or as the dial to the sun;
Constant as gliding waters roll,
Whose swelling tides obey the moon;
From every other charmer free,
My life and love shall follow thee.
The lamb the flowery thyme devours,
The dam the tender kid pursues;
Sweet Philome, in shady bowers
Of verdant spring, her notes renews;
All follow what they most admire;
As | pursue my souls desire.
Nature must change her beauteous face.
And vary as the seasons rise;
As winter to the spring gives place,
Summer TIL approach of autumn flies.
No change on love the seasons bring.
Love only knows perpetual spring.
Devouring Time, with stealing pace,
Makes lofty oaks and cedars bow:
And marble towers, and gates of brass.
In his rude march he levels low;
But Time, destroying far and wide,
Love from the soul can neer divide.
Death only, with his cruel dart,
The gentle godhead can remove;
And drive him from the bleeding heart
To mingle with the blessed above.
Where, known to all his kindred train.
lie finds lasting rest from pain.
Love, and his sister fair, the Soul,
Twin born, from heaven together
came;
Love will the universe control,
When dying seasons lose their name:

EASTER TINE.

Every year through the revo-
luton of the season Easter time
approach us, which to the chris
tian nation is one of the greatest
days of the year. It makes the
life, death and resurrection of
man who became conquror 1t
shows the divinity and power of
Supreme Master. 1t shows clear
ly that God sent his only son to
earth to die and be cruoified that
we might have eternal life; for
no man ever came like Jesus, no
man ever spake like him, no man
ever loved humanity like him and
no man ever died like he. Think
of his suffering, his agonies, his
love, mercy and tenderness. He
died the death of martyr,
though he arose triumphant from
the grave to Heaven. So let our
hearts rejoice and our tongues
give praise to our Heavenly
Father.

United States Senator from Iowa
to succeed the Hon. w. B. Allison
Mr.. Cummins is without doubt one
of the strongest, ablest and most
commanding men in Iowa politics
His promotion to the United States

our state is now enjoying so
many reformed advantages to
which other states are denied
He was born in Green County,
in the state of Pennsylvania,
Feb, 5th., 1850, attended the
common school and Greene Acad-
mey, later entered Waynesbug
College, from which he received
the degree of Doctor of Law. He

1869, and has made this state his
home ever since. Latter he was
admitted to the bar, and in Jan
uary, 1878, he moved to Des
Moines where he has been ever
since.
He is an active Republican
worker, and his eloquent voice
has been heard both in state and
