LORENA.

The years creep slowly by, LOrcna.
The snow is on the grass again:
The suns low down the sky. Lorena.
The frost CLEANS where the flowers
have been:
But the heart throbs on as warmly now
As when the summer days were nigh;
O, the sun can never dip so low
Adown affections cloudlesS sky.
4 hundred months nave passed. LOrena,
Since last held that hand in mine.
And felt the pulse beat fast. Lorena,
Tho mine beat fast,r far than thine.
4 hundred munths-'twaS flower! May
When up the hilly slope we climbed
To watch the dying of the day
And hear the distant churcn bells

We loved each other then. Lorena,
More than we ever dared to tell:
And what we might have been, Lorena.
Had but our loving prospered well!
But then, 'tiS past, the years have gone,
I'll not call up their shadOwy forms;
I'll say to them: lost years, sleep on.
Sleep on. nor heed lifes pelting

For. IF we try, we may forget

Yes. these were words of thine, Lo-
rena-
They are within my memory yet
They touched some tender chords, Lo-
rena,
Which thrill and tremble with regret,
Twas not thy woman's heart which
spoke
Thy heart was always true to me;
duty stern and piercing broke
The tie which linked my soul with
thee.
1t matters little now, Lorena,
The past is in the eternal past;
Our hearts will soon lie low. Lorena.

There is a future, o, thank God!

'Tis dust to dust beneath the sod.

Very few of these laws-and none
of the important oneS-could have
been obtained without breaking with
the political system by which the cor
porationS profit AMI which their bribeS
and influence maintain. Few of these
laws could have been obtained with
out first rOusing the community to a
sense of its responsibilities to the chilu
and stirring up the people by cam
paign that was sure to be offensive TO
the political powers. We should have
been false to the child had we failed
To point out that the rule of social,
economic, industrial, and political in
iustice maintained by the corporations
was responsible for much of the
child's misfortune and most of the in
crease i'm crime. And we should nave
shirked our duty had we failed TO
help i'm educating the public To see
that the greatest wrongs to the home,
the child. and the community are m
ficted by the rich criminals OF the
community. And as for the contrlDu, i,
tiOns that we might nave obtained
from the corporations by kneeling to
them-let me boast that by asserting
nv independence and going on the
public platform to obtain our reforms
have been able in nine years to earn
enough as a lecturer to be able to do
nate $40. 900 to our work out OF my
earnings and my salary: and TINS is
good deal more than we could nave
begged from our corporation masters
even if we had kissed the ground in
front of their feet.
Observe. too, that these results nave
been gained by the ''picayune" fight of
Judge of county court without
money or influence. and for the most
part without an organization. Imagine
what could have been done by lead
er of the people with a political fol-
lowing and a place in the legislature
from which to speak! What defeats
might not have been turned into VIC
tories, What losses to the people
might not have been made unimasln-
able gains, Judge Ben b. Lindsay IN

Annuck!

On every side of me the violent clos
ing of doors and shutters resembled
rapid fire vOlley from machine-guns.
The Parapalang was deserted, and not
thing stirred in any direction. Not a
sound was heard except the repeated:
Rap-rap-rap-rap."
1t was the amuck signal 1t had
started at some point in the city
where an agent of police-Or possibly
a citiZen-had first taken from its
hook a stout, solid wooden club and
had struck a long also solid beam that
hung suspended from an adjacent por-
tico. 1t had been taken up instantly
at many different points in Weltevre
den by citizens and police agents, so
that the amuck signal was flashed all
over Weltevreden as quickly as if
central telephone or telegraph operator
had flashed it over European wires.
The signal meant that some unfortu-
nate little brown Japanese had gone
suddenly mad-mad as only a Malay
can become. The repeated signals
warned all who valued their lives to
escape the maniacal rush of the dread
ed amuck runner.
Around the corner l came upon ma
tive stretched out stark, and then upon
dog that was limping along with
frightful cuts across it's body. A hun
dred feet further | saw the first signs
of life since the dreaded signal had
first been sounded. Almost at the
same moment that | saw q small group
Europeans gathered on lawn down
the street there came the finish" sig
nal of three short raps repes ted in rap
id succession. This signal, like the
first, which gave the alarm, concerned
the amuck runner, only the signal
now meant that the madman had been
caught or despatched. 1t was taken up
in all directions. People emerged from
their houses, and soon the little group
on the lawn had grown into veritable
surging mob.
When l came upon this scene found
small, wiry Japanese stretched out
on the lawn. He had evidently been
stunned by a blow from a club in the
hands of police agent. Near him lay
knife, and the knife showed that it
had been put to awful use very recent
ly.
The warning amuck signals had been
altogether i'm vain in the case Of one
European. for near by, in the entrance
to his house, lay a prominent planter,
the victim of the mad Japanese. He
had been stabbed to the heart. Before
the dead planter reached the bed that
was to be his last the littl" japanese
outside had recovered from the amuck
fever was wondering what had hap
pcned to him, and still more so at
what he had done and-was led away
for his xecution.-Harper's Weekly.
