Mr.. Morawetz testified: "In 1901
the Atchison company bought stoe,
and second mortgage bonds of the
Santa Fe. Prescott & Phoenix Rail-
way company. Frank Murphy was
president of the company. Because
of his ability and our confidence ia
him we asked him to continue as

Southern Pacific should build a low

SICILY AND THEocRITUs.

Evening Post). He was born in SYRIA.

east coast of Sicily, and his idylls-
"little pictures,' to translate the
Greek word literally-are veracious and
beautiful descriptions of pastoral life
In the very spot visited by the earth

Sicily was at one time Greek. terri
tory, and it is to this period that the
poetry of Theocritus belongs. His
verses are written for the most part
in the Doric dialect of that island.
They breathe the fresh, clear air of
the Sicilian hillsides. Theocritus ap.
pealed to nature for his inspiration, ana
transmitted to his readers the feeling
of the soft Sicilian breeze and the
warm Sicilian sun. He let them share
the life of the rustic shepherds, as in
the famous first idyll, where Thyrsis
sings the song of Daphnis woes:
Begin, sweet maids, begin the woodland
song
Inc folce Oh IHyTslS, Aetnd InyrSfS, L,

Now let white lilies drape the juniper,
And pines grow figs, and nature all go

For Daphnis dies. Let deer pursue the
hounds,
And mountain owls outsing the night,

Forget, sweet maids, forget your
woodland song.
So spake he, and he never spake again
