The Autumn Enchantment.

Once more the glory of the year is accomplished. The harvest is ripe and garnered of all things, tame and wild-or if any field waits, it is but for a brief reprievr. fo' the frosts are due and they finger not long beyond the autumnal chill which forebodes them. While yet the clover blooms in the rowen while vet the fringed gen. tian delights in the swale. while yet the witch hazeps wrath of pale fairy gold gl,ams at the edge. of the woods. while the song sparrow hesitates and delays to leave the roadside thicket. while the hickory retalns it's poisoned fruit for the snatch of frost, and the sasters and the goldenrod are still beautiful in their harmonies-in this mediary period comes the rare comfort of the whole succession of the seasons. October is the sole rival of June.- Springfield Republican.

Political Buying.

Coincident with Governor Forts ap- peal for a central purchasing agency for his state, there was published a report of. the bureau of municipal re- search on the police department of this city. in which the wastefulness of buying in small lots was strikingly set forth. According to the figures printed in the newspapers the depart ment paid 49 cents gallon for ben zine. while the fire department paid F cents and the retail price was Is cents Filing cards for which the police department paid SLOT each were offered to the bureau at 19 cents. These are declared to be fair sam pies of the extortionate rates obtained by contractors through dishonesty or ca arelessness.-New York Sun.

BREED THEATER.
The Story of Banknote, Feature Mo-
 ti3n Picture.

As a headliner for the programme for the remainder of the week, the Breed theater will display the great motiona picture entitled The StoRy of BanknOte. This is an unusually in- teresting drama and a remarkable ex- ample of intelligence in stage manage ment, in which every detail is carried out that the picture might present the story in simple poignant manner It is a thrilling story of counterfeiters, and the wonderful touch of pathos in the several scenes serves to accentuate the strong climaxes with which the picture abounds.
 Two splendid biograph pictures are also on the list and they are of the same convulsive sort that these clever people are making famous as high class comedy.
 MT. Roust, the pleasing tenor of the Breed, will appear in programme of the .sason's latest offerings in the song line. included among them being an entire novelty, being what is term ed a song with a Patter. chorus and the surprise of the audience is great when it is sung, calling for repeated encores.

NIGHT.

At nighttime as lie awake.
 Alone with silence and the stars, My spirit scars beyond the bars Wherewith mankind their prisons Slaves of our passions our whole lives We're worn and wasted in duress But for that silent monitress Whose touch the troubled spirit
 shrives.
 Then, Lady Night tender and calm. Out of the rush of worldly things I shelter meath thy quiet wings And in my soul receive thy balm. So when the ardent sun all day Has wrapped in flames leaf, herb and Till roses languish in the bower And stricken lilies swoon away; When lawn and close are wan and dry, And ife is ebbing to an end.
 Comes, lowering softly, Night, the
 friend
 To succor and revivify. From her cool fingers drops the dew. Beneath her shroud tired nature Till up to meet the dawn. she leaps. Hope, strength and giadness born
