The Song of the Spring.
BY FRANK HENRY BAsooM.

BY FRANK HENRY BAsCoM.
This song is as old
AS the hills; as the seas;
It's stories long told
To the birds and the bees,
In gentle low whispers,
In accents SO light,
In soothing soft vespers,
In dews of the night.
It's air is as new
AS the breath Of the morn;
With cadence so true
AS it breathes DER the farm;
AS it floats on the breeze
With the notes of the lark;
At noon to the trees;
At night to the dark.
To the winds of the west,
In tones gently signing;
To the mountains high crest,
In notes softly crying,
To the rocks and the hills
This song music laden;
To the rivers and rills
Comes to cheer and to gladden..
This song with it's air,
In heather and thicket,
Brings notes loud and clear
Brings chirrup of cricket;
Birds love song and gladness
It's airs always bring,
Melts Winter and sadness;
The Song of the Spring.

TELEGRAPH STRIKE
THREATENED

CHICAGO, April 5.-The CONNER

other strike against the telegraph
companies. Resolutions were adopted
at today's meeting of Chicago local
favoring a general strike against the
Western Union Telegraph Company in
all parts of the United States and
Mexico, to go into effect June list,
unless demands presented before the
strike of last August are granted in
full before that time The resolutions
provide that the Postal Telegraph
Company be given until July LIST to
meet the demands, and in the event
of both companies refusing. the men
employed by the Associated Press
and brokers and individual corpora

GREAT STRIKE OF
PARIS To SPREAD

PARIS, April 6-The first incipient
rioting in connection with the lockout
of bricklayers, masons and allied
workmen, occurred today in the place
de la Bastile. A crowd of workmen
attempted to force an entrance into
the building yards with the intention
of wrecking material, but they we're
prevented by the arrival of the po-
lice reserves, who dispersed the
crowd after making a few arrests and
cracking a few heads.
Unless a speedy settlement of the
controversy is arrived at workmen of
allied trades to the number of 1907
900 will be called out in sympathy.
A revolutionary organization is be-
hind the unions and arranging meet
ings and street manifestations. The
masters are standing firm. They con-
tend also that the labor organizations
of late have deliberately engaged in
spelling their work and destroying
material with the purpose of fore
ing acquiescence to their demands.

MADAM GOULD TO
HAVE HER PRINCE

NEW YORK, April Cit was def
nitely announced tonight that the OPP
position of the Gould family to the
marriage of Madam Anna Gould to
Prince de Sagan had been withdrawn
and that the marriage will take place
within a few months in Paris. The
announcement was made after a din
ner at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ed
win Gould at which many members
of the family were present. George
j. Gould was not at the dinner but
his wife was, and it was said authori-
tatively that George Gould's consent
would be forthcoming in a few days.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank ]. Gould, Ed
win Gould, Howard Gould and Miss
Helen Gould successfully agreed that
Madam Anna should be allowed to
have her way. and today Mrs. George
j. Gould, who had shared her hus-
bands antagonism to the Prince de
Sagan visited Madam Anna at the
Hotel st. Regis on returning to town
from Hot Springs, Va, and also de-
cided that her sister-in-law ought to
be permitted to marry the man of her
choice. Madam Anna Gould was ra-
diant with happiness tonight

LOS Angeles. April 2.-Suddenly
engufed in a fierce desert sandstorm
half way between Skiddoo and Emil
grant pass, the French car De Dion.
still holding third place in the dash
from New York to Paris, dropped into
pit of Death valley quicksand just
after midnight yesterday morning and
lost fully day. After trying in vain
until nearly daylight to get out, Au-
pran who has charge of the car, had
to send to Rhyolite fifty miles away
for team to pull his machine. Only
burros could be found in the other
mining camps.
The Rhyolite liverymen sent a team
driven by Frank Hartigan, but in a
short time the horses returned alone.
Hartigan's body was found on the des-
ert with a broken neck and he is sup
posed to have fallen out of the wagon.
Last night the second team finally
reached the De Dion. and after a tug OF
six hours practically released the mo-
tor, but had to pull it until this after
noon on account of the continued high
wind. Tonight the French car is max
ing full speed over the desert and is
expected to reach Moiave tomorrow
morning.

THE LATEST ABOUT AUTOMOBILES.

For the same reason that the auto
mobile dealers of New York city are
promoting a carnival week, the auto
mobile manufacturers of the United
States should give their support to the
Briarcliff Trophy race. What the To-
cal exhibition week will be to the city
| the international stock chassis COM
petition will be to the nation. Both are
promoted with view to attracting IA
vOrable attention to the automobile at a
season when public fancy is susceptible
to automobiling.
With the strong probability that
there will not be a Vanderbilt Cup race
this year-at least not in the neighbor-
hood of New York city-the race in
Westchester county on April "a is like
ly to be the last opportunity of the
season for manufacturers to demon
strate 10 prospective purchasers in
open competition the speed and endur-
ing qualities of the machines they mar
ket.
Any doubt as to general interest in
the contest should be dispelled by or
ders given one month in advance OF
the race date for seats and boxes in u
grand stand that so far is in prospect
only Deposits nave been paid on
seats aggregating in rental more than
five thousand dollars, while applica-
lions without deposits have been made
for nearly as many more. Hotel ac-
commodations for the night before the
race have been well taken up at White
Plains, Tarrytown, Dobbs Ferry and
Ossining, while the hotels and inns
around the circuit of thirty miles are
practically sold out for that night.
These facts are cited simply as an in
dication of popular interest in the
event.
To handle the throngs which will go
/ by train to witness the race the pas
senger department of the New York
Central Railroad has planned a system
of special all night service to land spec
tators at convenient vantage points
without congestion along any one line
The most frequent service will be tc
the Briarcliff Manor station, on the
Putnam division, which will be withir
few minutes walk of the grand stand
| Throughout the night there will be al
automobile stage service from HeralC
square to Briarcliff, and for those who
drive out in their own cars there viii
be ample parking accommodations neaI
the start and finish lines, where an un
INSTRUCTED view may be had of tina
section of the course.
Though the difficulties of the cours
necessarily will prevent record speed
the race is calculated to be more spe
tacular and more keenly fought out 70
that reason. The constant winding o
the route, the sharp hills at Valhalla
Eastyiew, Pines Bridge and Noun
,Kisco, and the frequent sharp curves
such as that near the grand stand, will
furnish more variety of action to tn
drivers and more excitement to spec
tators than a race over a fiat cours
with long straightaway stretches ant
well graded turns.
The contest will be of both speed ant
endurance of machines; it will be ais
a test of stamina, nerve and quick wi
of drivers. These features will rend
