All on a summers dav
Along the quiet river,
Or out upon the bay.
| mind me not the season,
Aye. morning, night or noon;
A pair of oars to guide me.
And spoon and spoon and spoon
What though the shadows deepen
And weirdly calls the loon;
Wnen evening shades are falling
Then is the time to spoon.
It's then you hug the-shadows
And spoon and spoon and spoon
What Joy to be off spooninx
With naught to interfere:
10 be away from worry.
With nothing but your dear
Old boat and rod and tackle
Upon the lone lagoon;
A pipe and cleaning waters.
And Just a whiriing spoon.

1875 MILLIONS FOR AUTOS.
Especial to The sentineI.1 /


New York. May Throughout
the United States there are at the
present time about $50 factories en-
gagged in manufacturing automobiles
Probably 100 of these are concerns
of national and international reputa-
ton. The remaining l so are smaller
companies and individuals doing, for
a great part. purely local business
According to General Manager AL
fred Reeves of the American Motor
Car Manufacturers Association, there
will be approximately $4,000 motor
cars turned out in American factor
les during the present calendar year
and the total valuation will be not
far from 1875 million dollars.
OF the 253 factories in this coun-
try there are at least 100 concerns
turning out cars that are well known
and factors in the market. So neces-
sary has the automobile become that
last year there was little or no fall
ing off in the trade, while this year it
is better than ever, despite the fact
that all other lines are doing a con-
siderably smaller percentage of busi-
ness than at any time during the last
six years.
While there is a continually in
oreasing demand for commercial We
hicles, there is no indication of any
slackening in the call for pleasure
cars This not only applies to the
big. luxurious cars of great power
but also to what is known as tie

500 to $4,000, A considerable pro-
PORTION of the cars this year will be
of the buggy type. which farmers are
purchasing and using in increasing
numbers.

The validity OF copyright secured
in December 1905 by Paul llervieu, a
French dramatiSt for five-act play
entitled lie Dedale," is upheld IN a
decision filed to-day by Judge Martin
in the United States Circuit Court IN
the test suit brought against the j. 5.

An English version OF the Hervleu
play was entered ar copyright by the
j. 5. Ogilvie Company in December,
1905, under the title, The Labyrinth.

Moreheai
Counsel for the Oglivie Company at
the trial Contended that the copyright
secured by liervieu was invalid because
the play was not set in type in this
country.
For IIervieu It was urged that the
play was not book, but lerely
dramatic composition, ami that the
question OF whether II was printed in
this country or anywhere was not ma

Judge Martin holds that the Hervieu
copyright is valid and that In the Ian.
guase Of the amendment of March g.

Judge Martin says further that the

Ills body, which had fallen across the
grave, was found few hours later by
several OF the cemetery's employees.
Gerhard since the death OF his wife
on Nov. % last has been a daily visitor
TO her grave. Prior 20 the death OF his
wife he was OF CHEEKY nature, and
was one of the mos: popular men at
the shops where he worked as a
skilled machnist. Since her death he
has been silent and morose, and his
friends say he was never seen to smile.
Each evening after returning from
work and eating his supper Gerhard
would go to the cemetery, and those
with whom he made his home say he
frequently spent the night at the side
OF his wife's grave. When he did not
return to his home last night they were
not alarmed by his absence.
When the workmen saw the old man
reclining by the grave to-day they
were not surprised as they had often
found him there when they came to
work. AS he did not move, and think
Ing he was still asleep. they approached
the grave. and then saw he was dead.

A dispatch from Washington
last Saturday syares that the
house committee on public lands
decided 10 rpcon1.nend for pas
sage d North Dakota coal land
bill which viii reserve to the
government the title t. all coal
found on lands which have been
houaestes5ed, and to which pat.
elts may hereafter be issued.
Congressman Gronaa stated
that ne would bring il a aninor-
ity report, and it is understood
Congressman Han3mand of Min
nesota may ioin him in this report
recommending either that the
settlers be given full title to the
land aid all it contains, or else
that the gavernnler11 s right to
the coal deposit shall lie limited
TO five years or ten Years.
Congressman Marshall appear
Ell before the committee to r9ro-
test against any bill which did
net give to the settlers a full
and qualified title to the land.
Mr.. Gro ma, as a member Gf the
committee, made a final stand
upon the same principle.
The report Of the committee
is in substance as follows:
ANY person who has made a
Homestead entry IN good faith
upon land which has since been
classified as coal lana, shall be
agloNzedto secure a patent to tbe
land, the United States reserving
al coal, and the right TO pro-

land or in the neighborhood.
In connections with most of
the projects, SO far undertaken,
the term has been construed to
mean two miles. Since actual
operations were begun. however,
railroads have been extended to
practically all projects. and it is
found that people can live in
nearby towns, while developing
their land on projects, with a
view to establishing residence
thereon at a later date.
Soil on many of the projects
requires several years for COM
plete subjugation and in the
meantime it is desirable to en-
courage owners 20 put it in the
best possible condition, and to
plant orchards, utilizing for this
purpose any money earned at
some convenient point in the
neighborhood.
! The secretary has, therefore,
extended the definition Of
"neighborhood" to fifty miles in
all cases.

Bryan Grabs Il.

Richmond News Leader, Dem.
Mr.. Bryan is a kind of human briar
bush, standing ready to catch and hold
every fad, fallacy and humbug that may
come floating through the air. Appar-
emily he does not care particularly
whence it comes nor whittier it is trying
to go. So it is something tending in the
general direction of paternalism and
socialism and away from sound demo-
cratic doctrine he clutches it eagerly.
Now he is out in his Commoner, favor
ing the postal savings bank scheme
which the republicans pasted on their
last platform to offset his own idea of
bank deposits plan.
This position of his may work out
some rather humorous vengeance. The
republicans never intended that their
postal savings bank plank should be
taken seriously by thinking people.
They were little ashamed of it but ex-
cused it on the ground of political ex-
igency. If Mr.. Bryan and these few
republicans who really accepted the
plank as earnestly intended insist on
forcing before congress a measure to
establish the proposed postal savings
banks, they will have the republican
leaders and statesmen in an embarass-
ing position, forced to choose between
repudiating their own party's plank and
arousing the hostility of the business
people of the country.
Every move Mr.. Bryan makes or has
made since the election impresses on us
the more strongly that the one hope for
maintaining the life of the democratic
party and holding it together is to re-
pudiate him absolutely and immediate
ly. The situation is in the hands of the
Southern people. Apparently our lead
ers have learned no sense and acquired
no courage since the disaster of last
November. So far as we can recollect.
not one of them, in or out of congress,
has had the nerve to come out with g
fiat-footed declaration that Bryan will
not do, that the prospects of his candi-
dacy is doing more than any other one
force to break what is left of the Solid
South and that if there is serious indi-
cation of his denomination the demo
Gratis Of the Southern States will hold
their own separate convention, nomi.
nate their candidates on a real ano
sound democratic platform and go be-
fore the country on their merits. A
Southern democratic candidate would
carry the South. anyhow, and that is
more than Mr.. Bryan is likely to do.
