THE r MAN.

Oh. what does the Dream Man mean,
And WHY does he wave his wand,
Altar where the tussocIs lean
He walks on the plain unseen.
And calls to the night beyond,
The moon Is beringed and pale
with only the Dream-Man's eye
To guide DER the slender trail!
And what X their light should fail.
Away where the shadows rise?
He plays or a wonderous reed.
And deep are the spells he weaves:
In vain may We kneel and plead
Who follow the DreNm-Man's lead,
And fall by the way he leaves.
He tarries his steps for none,
Blu the CLEAN OF his somber eyes
oh, dearly their glance is won'-
Is more than the stars and the sun,
And all the light o the skies
Aloud from the distant sea
And low from a far-o1 range.
He calls to the soul Of me.
And plays in an unknown key
A song In n rhythm strange
Lola Ridge IN April .Ainslee's.

DIR. ANGEL SPEAKS
Addressed New England Alumni Of
Michigan at Boston.

Boston, March 21.-President James p.
Angel Of the University Of Michigan and
President G. Stanley Hall Of Clark uni
verslty were speakers at the banquet Of
the Michigan Alumni Association Of New
England, held last night at the Par
ker house. Hugh w. Ogden spoke for
the University OF Pennsylvania alumni
and Percy II. Richardson, Michigan, IS.
Of Portland, for the Maine members OF
the alumni association. There were about
lon men and women present.
DR.. Angel. who Is soon to retire as Ms
head, brought the news Of the progress
Of TIE institution in the last year. speak
ing Of the growth of the college of en-
rineering and of several new buildings
which have been erected.
Speaking OF the fact that Michigan
IS n state university ne said that he
had often been asked whether he would
prefer having a gift OF a million dollars
70 continuing under the control and sup
port of the State. He said that In his
frequent visits to the Michigan Legisla-
turc nc had opportunity to think this
question over and answer It for himself.
lie believed that the State control
and support fostered a mora demo-
I CpiliN VI tihH Nlt
interest Of m~illionaires and their big
gifts. The money that came to Mich
iean University from the state was
money earned by Michigan farmers
who knew how much a dollar meant
! when 1t was wrested from the soil.
DR.. Angel said that money given in
this way TO the support Of the State
universities OF the Middle West In
sured ideals nearer the American ideal
than any other method of educational
support.
DR.. Hall spoke very highly Of Presi-
lent Angels work. saying that there
were hut three educators OF the oun
try at the present time who deserved
20 rank with him. Or. Hall said that
the efficiency OF the university was
the measure Of the progress OF real
civilization In this country. Part OF
his address was a plea for academic
freedom.
At the business meeting the Rev.
Frederick NJ. White OF Winthrop was
elected president. the other officers

one who reused himself to anger de-
liberate'y, much rs n serpent stings
Itself INTO n painful fury, but now 1t
was apparent that he was boiling over,
for he stammercd and halted and
Nustered explosively:
You're a bunch Of ~rascals, all Of
you, tryfn' to down a pore girl and get
Der ground. But who put you wise to
this thing, IN the first placer Who
found this gold? Just because there's
enough Of you to vote that Z Jtion

spat It out--"dressmakers!"
81 this was why both Stark and
Runnion had gone up the creek with
the three new men. thought Burrell.
No doubt they had deliberately arrang-
ed the whole thing 80 that the new
arrivals could Immediately relocate
each Of Necia's claims--the pick of all
the ground outside Lees discovery and
the surest to be -aluable-and that
Stark would share In the robbery.
Carefully slipping around the corner
Of the cabin and keeping the house be-
tween him and the others, Burrell
broke into a swift run. making the ut
most possible speed for fear they
should miss him and guess his pur-
pose, or, worse yet, finish their discus
hon and adjourn before he could com.
piete his task. He was a light mar on
his Feet, and he lodged through the
forest, running more carclessly the
farther he went. visiting first the up
per claims; then, making a wide de-
tour Of tho cabin, he came back to the
initial stake Of Necia's lower claim,
staggering from his exerticns, his
lungs bursting from the strain. He
had covered nearly a mile; but, even
30, he laughed grimly as he walked
back toward the cabin. for 1t was a
game worth playing. and he was glad
to take Il hand on the side Of the
trader and the girl. Coming within
earshot, he heard the meeting vote to
adjourn. It could not have terminated
more OPPORTUNITY had he held q stop
watch on It.
Runnion addressed the other con
spirators loudly:
WELL. boys. there are three good
claims open for relocation. I'm sorry
I can't stake one Of them"
"".ev won't lie open long" said m
Of the undesirable citizens. starting 60
turn downstream. while his two COM
panicas made for the opposite direc.

In a recent speech TO the Harvard stu

We have been passing through a wild
orgy Of extra vagance. in which very
much has been consumed IN fireworks
and fustian. and great burdens of ex-
penses have been unnecessarily fastened
upon tho country. Now. as a result of
1t all. we arc to have taxation OF a sort
such as the country has usually known
only az a result OF war, and the people
will W an opportunity Of paying tho
bills.

must pay tho fiddler. The nation has
been dancing desperately ana now the
fiddler has to be paid. In the last de-
cade tho government expense has in
creased four times as fast as the popu-
lation. We have about danced ourselves
out Of breath. Let us retire to some Sc
cluded spot to rest and mediate.

AN EVEN-SONG.

The light is failing and my work IL
finished.
And one moro kindly day the radiant
glow
or sunset with the silver stream IS
blending
As eventldc draws near with footsteps
slow.
The light is failing and the day Is dying,
1t totters on the rim OF that far west
Whereof a gorgeous winding-shee is ly-
Ing,
To fold 1t round when It shall cease Its
quest.
The light is falling. but my hearth is
cherry.
With deep content I watch the setting
Throw twilight through the door-my
feet are weary,
But strength is given each days race
TO run.

THE ILLINOIS ISSUE
KNOWS the Business

Montgomery, Ala, Sept. Ex-Governor
Conner, who has been largely responsible
for the drastic prohibition laws in Ala
bama and who is now stumping the state
in an effort to have an amendment in
corporated in the constitution forever
barring the sale Of whisky, has admitted
that he himself was once engaged in the
sale of liquor and that he made fine
profit out Of the business
The governor says that when he sold
whisky it was not considered wrong He
quit selling it when he became convinced
of his error, and since then has constantly
opposed it's sale
The governors former connection with
the whisky traffic was disclosed by State
Senator Spragius, who is stumping Ala
bama against the prohibition amendment
The saloon is worse than war, famine
and pestilence combined
Put the model saloonkeeper on exhi-
bition. He's wonder.
The saloon makes the good bad, and the
bad worse.
No saloons means more business for the
merchant.
The saloon is the biggest hypocrite of
the age.
The saloon is an enemy to the working
man.
Alcohol fools the man who drinks it,
The saloon is a drunkard factory
The saloon is murder mill
The saloon Stays it's friends.
