1t was the morning of that fearsOme,
uncertain Gay on which the bonds
were to be made fast, where a tiny
path yet leads back, when each tries
to peer into the future and wonders
and doubts and hesitates.
They were alone, and she drew near
him, aware and watchful
Harold, dearest, in a few hours it
will all be over. Can you grasp it
all? But did you dream Of me last
night"
"Yes, Ownest. I saw you as a black,
marvellous swan, drifting placidly all
alone on mirrored lake, with here
and there a fat, floating leaf. And
then I, humble, joyous swan, too,
began to float out to you And my
soul took fire, dearest and / thrilled
all over as you swung superbly around,
and l wished to be a poet, with a liv-
ing, passionate pen, and l wished my
self an earth god and that a raging
wind would swoop down upon you
that l might seize you in my arms
and defy the storm god. And 1 could
smell sweet incense and hear the
tinkling Of innumerable bells and could
feel the delirium of a burning heart,
and again l wished to be a poet that
might sing
But, Harold, do you really love me-"
He paused, breathed deep and
poured out his soul. yes, dearest, !
think you are it,"
And then she held up her vibrant
lips, confident, satisfied.-Puck

The Supreme Gift.

Man has no wings, and yet he can
soar above the clouds. He is not
swift Of foot, and yet he can outSpeed
the fieeteSt hound or horse. He has
but feeble weapons in his organization.
and yet he can slay or master all the
great beasts. His eye is not so sharp
as that of the eagle or the vulture,
and yet he can see into the farthest
depths of Sidereal space. He has only
very feeble occult powers Of Communi-
cation with his fellows, and yet he
can talk around the world and send
his voice across mountains and deserts
His hands are weak things beside a
lions paw or an elephants trunk, and
yet he can move mountains and stay
rivers and set bounds to the widest
seas. His dog can outsmel him and
Outrun him and outbite him, and yet
his dog looks up to him as to q god.
He has erring reasons in place of un-
erring instinct, and yet he has changed
the face OF the planet.
Without the specialization of the
lower animals-their wonderful adap-
tation TO particular ends, their tools,
their weapons, their strength, their
speed-man yet makes them all his
servants. His brain is more than z
match for all the special advantages
nature has given them. The one gift
Of reason makes him supreme in the
world.--Jehn Burroughs In Atlantic. Z

JUSTICE IS MUCH
TEMPERED WITH
JUDICIAL MERCY

Yesterday was an easy day in Judge
De Bolts court for those accused OF
violations of the laws of the Territory.
There appeared to be no great desire
on the part of the stern prosecuting
officers to press any charges, and ev-
erybody got off without punishment,
except one japanese who had shown
the bad taste to lay himself open to
d charge of contempt of court.
An Ak and a bunch Of his fellow
countrymen, who were convicted in the
district court of having been present
at a gambling game, came before the
Judge on appeal. The case was mol
prossed-motion of A. NJ. Brown.
Ako, charged with selling poisonous
drugs without a license, pleaded guilty.
Sentence suspended for thirteen months,
motion of A. NJ. Brown.
All Hoy, Also charged with selling
poisonous drugs without a license,
pleaded guilty. Sentence suspended for
thirteen months, motion of A. NJ.
Brown.
sato, charged with selling liquor
without license, pleaded guilty. Sen
tence suspended thirteen months, mo-
ton Of a. NJ Brown.
Ueno, a witness in one of the strike
cases, who so far forgot himself as to
be absent when he was wanted, came
before the judge to answer to charge
of contempt of court. The judge found
him guilty and fined him $50.
