And the wood pile grew and grew and
grew;
1t grew so large one day
That 1t filed the street, blocked 1t up
complete.
So that nothing could pass that way.
Then it covered the ground for miles
around
And rose till it touched the sky.
The clouds were stopped, no rain was
dropped,
For nothing could e'er pass by.
High IN to the moon the little man
climbed
Twas just at the top of the pile
When. feeling quite gay, he sawed away,
And he never forgot to smile.
And there on the moon he still remains,
Saving a great wood pile.
Most any night when the sky is bright
You can see him saw and smile.

Natures Law
of Justice.

Have we not had occasions in our
lives, when we have been lygrieved
at the apparently terrible injustice in
the world? Have We not been tempted
to cry "Doth God care" "Or Is there a
God at all, for if there were, would he
permit such injustice to go OH in His
world?" The cry of the wounded aud
oppressed, have come like wall of woe
in our ears: the means aud the tears of
the afflicted and suffering have seemed
to blot out heavens sunshine, and to
destroy the harmonies OF nature.
Is man nothing but toy, q play
thing driven hither and thither, with
no voice, or very little in the weaving
of his destinyp What is the meaning
of it? Why should he be thus thrown
from the purity of the hands of God,
into the maelstrom of this life, to take

wooDMEN LOSE A POINT.
Attorneys for Depositors Of Defunct
Charlton Bank Get Ruling.

Charlton. July 6.-Attorneys who
were employed some time ago by the
depositors Of the defunct First Ma
tional bank to look after their inter :
ests and to get the Modern Woodmen
claim of S350,O00 thrown out, have
succeeded in getting ruling from
the comptroller of the currency, that
will put the Modern Woodmen on the
offensive in the case instead of the
bank depositors. Attorneys Stuart
claimed to the comptroller that the
admission of the Woodmen claim as
bona tide deposit in the bank, with
out any opportunity on the part of the
.depositors to show that 1t was not a
bona fide deposit, was unfair to the
idepositors, so the comptroller finally
consented, if the depositors would put
up bond sufficient to cover the costs
in the trial of the case, in order to
protect the funds of the bank from
further expense, to reverse his first
decision In the matter and throw out
the Woodrnan claim, thus forcing the
burden of proof on the Woodmen. in
stead of on the depositors.
The case will have to be tried in
court, the same as before, but the
,Woodmen will now be the plaintiff and
the depositors the defendant. which
will be an advantage to the deposit
tors. The Woodmen will probably
bring their case in the federal court.
but it will be some time before they
are ready for trial. The case which
was filed in the district court here
20 throw out the Woodmen claim, was
accordingly dismissed. A number of
have already signed the
guarantee to pay the costs OF the de-
Tense in case the Woodmen bring suit
to establish their claim.

publican member of congress who has
fought for legislation to give the states
control of shipments of liquor sent in

anti-saloon elements. But as between
a republican candidate and demo-
cratic candidate eac1 OF whom is re-
garded as unfriendly to anu-saloon
legislation of any sort, the democrat
will be favored. In some cases, prohi-
bition tickets will be put up. The the
DRY on which the anti-saloon forces
will turn to the democrats is that II
democratic house is chosen, 1t will be
controlled by the old members among
the democrats and these will be main
ly southern men and prohibitionlsts.
Champ Clark would probably be
speaker and he is relied on to make
up the committees IL the ever gets the

help in their efforts to carry the house
this fall to which the democratic con-
gressional campaign leaders are look
ing forward is the anti-liquor inhu-
ence. Members Of organizations like
the Anti-Saloon league are expected to
throw their influence in larger part to-
ward the choice Of democratic repre-
sentatiyes. 1t is not expected the Anti
Saloon league as body will take this
stand. but there is much talk among
those familiar with the purposes OF
the opponents OF the liquor business
that the republican leaders in the
fight to control the house will have
to encounter the forces of temperance
and prohibition.
This is the way the anti-saloon
forces are calculating: A republican
house so long as it is dominated by
Speaker Cannon will not pass the Hep
burn Dolliver bill or any such legis-
lation to give the states control OF
LIQUOR shipped into their borders,
therefore, the house should be turned
over to the democrats. Speaker Can
non has incurred the antipathy OF the
temperance and prohibition forces be-
cause he is charged with having packed
committees against anti-saloon legis-
lation. The three committees that
have to do with such legislation are
the judiciary, the District of Columbia
and Interstate and foreign commerce.
These committees were so made up
that no legislation harmful to the
LIQUOR business Of the country sue
ceeded in getting thru. The District
OF Columbia committee OF the house,
for instance, was so composed that II
was fiatly antagonistic to the moves
ment for prohibition in the district
and that movement did not materialize
last session; neither will 1t the coming
session. The house Judiciary commit
tee was recognized as unfriendly to
LEGISLATION calculated to restrict the
Honor business, as was the committee
on Interstate commerce in the lower
branch Of congress-
Under such circum stances the anti
saloon elements are going into the
congressional campaign in such dis
tricts as they see any chance OF
welding an influence and, the demo-
cratic congressional campaign leaders
believe. are going to work to q certain

POSTMASTER GENERAL ILL.
Meyer Suffers Ptomaine Poisoning and
Family Is Called.


Richmond, Va. July 6.-Postmaster
General Meyer, who was to have been
the guest Of the Custis club In a
Fourth Of July celebration at the home
of the club on the old Martha GUSTS
place, on the James river, is suffering
from pto1naine poisoning at his home
in Washington, his condition being so
serious that the members Of his family
have been summoned to his bedside
from their home in Massachusetts.
This information came to the secre-
tary Of the club from the secretary of
the postmaster general on Friday night
after all preparations had been made
for the outing down the river In honor
OF the clubs distinguished guest The
pilgrimage was made by the members
Of the club, nothing being known of
the illness Of the postmaster general
until their return to Richmond.
The fact that the condition OF the
postmaster general Is regarded as SER
ious is demonstrated by the Summon
ing Of his family to his bedside. The
fact that he is I'LL, however. has been
closely guarded, nothing being known
of 1t in Washington. The contents of
the telegram leaked out here after the
return of the club members, who, be-
lieving that the papers must have been
full of it during their absence, asked
about his condition.
