rotten hulk it soils the shore
That fades away with passing years.
And where the hands of humans bore
It's pirate rag of blood and tears.
It's reign of terror placed tyrant king above,
Whose rule it forced and called it Love-
The fire that lick'd the rebels frame, Iph :
And tore groan from out his breast
Will burn no more to help defame
The thoughts the life of Christ expressed.
The wreath of love is laid above tls noble dead,
For revere the truths the maryrs' spread
The daring thinker born find
The secret that sphere commands,
No longer the human mind
In prison held by prestly hands.
The brain of invades the fields in which the priest
Though styled guide, did ever travel least
The witch who cursed the cruel stake
That held her fast amid the fire.
Has passed away to shake
Her charred fist at church and friar.
The voice that walled, Oh, Mercy" in the torture
Is silent now-the church has met its doom.
The wars that SHOCKED the Of earth
With widows means and orphans tears
In Christian counsels had their birth,
So Greed may thrive where shone their spears.
The murder'd dead do line the highway man has trod
For souls saved if blood was shed for God.
The slaves who bore the pirates rag
Have left the field to human thought
Their tainted hands have ceas'd to drag
The manged form, that Freedom taught.
No robber barons cheat the mental life today,
The claims of Freethought mans opinions sway.

MARGUERITE HALEY
BACK AT SCHOOL
Missing Girl Found in the Home
Of a Well Digger.

Geneva, Wis, Aug. 17.-Marguerite
Haley, who disappeared from board
ing school at Oak Bank, on the west
shore of Lake Geneva, was found hid
den in the house of a we'll digger at
Williams Bay, Wis, and returned to
the school.
The missing girl, who is twelve
years old, said she left the school be-
cause she did not like the regulations
and discipline imposed by Miss Mary
L. Fellows, the principal, and because
she had conceived dislike for Mrs.
M. A Ahrens, Miss Fellows mother.
The girl showed no emotion over the
almost country wide search which had
been made for her for three days and
said she was in the house where she
was found because she had asked for
secret shelter there until she could get
means to go to her father, H. A. Haley,
in Norfolk, Neb.
81 planned the running away all N.Y.
SELF she said, smiling. "I told no
one was going except my stepsister.
Beatrice Winder. / told her a week
ago that I was going to leave the
school because / could not stand it any
longer"

BEAVERS WORRY The TOWN
Build Dams and Cause Much Havoc at
Auburn, Wis.

Chippewa Falls, Wis, Aug. 17.-Su-
pervisor John Mier of the town of Au-
burn is searching for a game warden.
Mr.. Mier says the town Of Auburn is
in predicament, all on account of a
colony of beavers that are doing much
damage on upper Hay creek. In one
place they have built a dam that
causes the stream to overflow the high
way.
Near Dan McCord's farm they have
damned up five foot lin diameterl
steel culvert so that the~water cannot
flow through it. Several times Mir.
Mier has ordered workmen to tear out
this dam only to have the beavers re
store their work On Harry Harwood S
farm the beavers are cutting down all
the poplar trees. And they are like
wise operating upon Gus Kehlm's
farm.
He estimates that there are perhaps
thirty beavers in this colony.

BURN TO COVER UP CRIME
Crooks Commit Burglary Under Nose
of Police Department.


of Police Department.
Lacrosse, Wis, Aug. IA burglary
and attempted arson, occurring right
under the nose of the police depart
ment, has stirred the force into in
dignant activity and caused a sensa-
ton in Lacrosse.
Using lubricating oil to start a fire
to cover up their crime, burglars ram
sacked the garage and office of the c.
HI. Holway automobile agency directly
across the street from police head
quarters and situated at spot which
officers pass every few minutes in go
ing in and out of headquarters.
The paper money in a desk, amount
ing to about $40 was taken, while the
silver was left, the evident purpose of
the robbers being to burn the building
and leave the impression that the bills
had been destroyed.
A fireman discovered the blaze and
the fire was extinguished and the bur-
glary noted No trace has been found
Of the robbers.

WATER POWER
PROBE URGED
State Of Wisconsin Is Losing
Millions Of Dollars.
so DECLARES JUDGE REID

Senator Morris Urged by the Wiscon-
sin Waterways Commissioner to Ar
range for an Investigation, Express
lno the Belief That Water Power
RIGHTS Belonging to the State Are
BEING Seized by Private Concerns
Reid Is Now in Europe.
Lacrosse, Wis, Aug. 16.-An investi-
CATION of the states financial interest
in undeveloped water powers by legis-
lative committee is the proposition
made to State Senator Thomas Nor
ris in a letter from Judge Ray S. Reid,
Wisconsin waterways commissioner.
Judge Reid is now touring Europe in
advance of the national waterways
commission on request OF Senator
Burton, Ohio, chairman. Commission
er Reid urges Senator Morris to en-
deavor to arrange an investigation OF
the matter in the belief that millions
of dollars worth of water power
rights rightfully belonging to the state
are being seized by private concerns.
The commissioner expressed his be-
lief that the state owns all undevel-
oped water power rights and that the
price private interests should pay the
state government in consideration OF
franchises is the difference between
I the value of such power, computed by
its estimated horsepower possibility,
and the cost of construction of the
power plant.
Commissioner Reid also declares
there is the problem of what financial
interest the state has in water powers
already developed.

BIG Rail way
MERGER NEAR
Hartman Plans to Hold the
New York Central
WOULD GUST VANDERBILTS

Magnate's Brokers Are Said to Have
Secured an Option on the Greater
Portion, if Not All, of Their Hold
inss-With His Steamship Lines and
Railroads Hartman Would Donin-
ate the Entire Rate Situation Of
the Country. Isl
New York, Aug. 1.-THE elimina-
ton of the Va1derbilts from the New
York Central lines and the complete
ascendency of Edward III. Hartman in
to the control of the more than 10000
miles of railroad comprised in that sys-
tenn are declared to be the next inn
portant developments in the railway
world.
1t is reported on what seems to be
good authority that the Hartman
brokers have secured an option on the
greater portion, if not all, of the Van
derbilt holdings, and will soon close
the deal in the interest of the "Napo-
leon'' of the railway world The op.
ton, it is stated, is ON $50,000,O00
worth of New York Central stock,
which is to be purchased for Hartman
at $50 a share.
The last report of the Union Pacific
road shows that it has in its treasury
$14,000,000 worth of New York Cen.
trail securities, and it is generally be-
lieved that Hartman and a few Of his
friends have large personal holding
in New York Central.
The total capitalization of the New
York Central is $17S,632, 900, and it is
understood that the option, if exer.
cised, will give Hartman and his
friends an absolute stock control of the
company. This carries with it a con-
troll of the West Shore and a prac-
teal control, though not by stock own.
ership, of all the roads in the New
York Central lines system.
With his steamship lines, which give
him third transcontinental rail and
water route, Hartman would dominate
the entire rate situation of the coun-
try.
