MY LIFE Is LIKE THE SKATER.
ED WRECK.


BY RoHEnT EMMEr lIooE.
NV life is like the shattered wreck
Cast by the waves upon the shore;
The broken maSt-thc riitcd deck,
Tell of the Shipwrcck that is DER.
Yet from the relics of the storm
The mariner his raft will form.
Once more to tempt the faithleSS sea
But hope rebuilds no barque for me.
NV life is like the blighted oak
That lifts its scrc and withcrcd form.
Scathcd by the lightning's sudden stroke
Stcrnly to meet the coming storm:
Yet round the saplen trunk will twinc
The curling tcndrils Of the vine.
And lift. and freshness there impart--
Not To the passion blightcd heart.
Ny life is like the shattered rock
In mid-ocean lone and drcar:
Worn by the wild waves careless shock
That round its l,aSc its SurgcS rear:
Yet there the Sca-moSS still VIII cling
Some flowers will find i cleft To spring.
And breathe cen thcrca sweet perfume
For me lilc'S flowers no more Will
bloom.
NV life is like the desert waste
isy human footsteps seldom prcSt
The eve no freshness there can trace
No vertlant spot on which to rest;
Yet cen among those sands so drcar
The stork will tend her young with
care,
Fen there the notes Of JOY imparl-
But naught can cheer my lonely heart

SPEAKER CANNON Defends THE
RULES.

The old rules of the House were de-
Tended and the critics of Speaker Cannon
| were scored by him i'll Il brief address
| late in the session OF the House on Satur-
day. He contcnded that the operation
of the rules as adopted by the Fifty-iirSt
Congress and rs enforced by him never
had interfered with the will of the ma
ioritv of the Honsc when an actual ma
iority had been obtained on any propo-
sition.
He scored ncwspapc; go, r"gaz'nc
writers who had criticised him, and de-
clarcd that they had proceeded from Il
| lack of knowledge and upc" false prem
| iscS.
His speech was made just after the
| House had agreed to the conference re-
port on the railroad bill and had accept
cd the Senate amendment to the state
hood bill. He surrendered his gavcl to
Representative Mann. of Illinois. and,
descending to the floor, he went into the
midst OF the republican side and asked
unanimous consent 10 address the
House for ten minutes. There was nc
voice of protest.
Proceeding slowly and in measured
words. the Speaker declared that who
ever should bc Speaker of the House,
whether for two or eight years, could
not escape criticism. He spoke OF the
80. 900 bills introduced i'll each Congress.
all with their advocates demanding con-
Sideration.
Many members introduce bills that
they do no, want passed." he went on,
explaining the troubles that face a
speaker, and he declared that, under
the rules rs they had been adopted i'll
the FiftytirSt Congress, it had at any
time been possible for majority in
| the House 10 lcgislaic.
Referring directly to Minority Leader
Champ Clark. the speaker said that
the gentleman from Missouri would
make the best speaker that the minority
could obtain. This remark was signal
for an ovation by the democrats in
honor of their floor leader.
Continuing. the speaker said that
not half as many bills were paS>et
under the new 'unanimous-conscnt'
rule as formerly, ~ he ridiculcd tht
suggestion about i:i> role rs 4 Car.
Whatever the clamor might be. he
declared that he preferred to maintain
his fidelity to the majority OF the
House. Referring to newspaper anI
magazine writers. he said he wouit
rather keep his own Self-respect thar
bend to demagogucS and the sclf-con
stitutcd righteous ones who criticiSt
without Judgment AMI without knowl
