II was in the long ago.
1t was on the road to Reno,
Somewhere west of Kokomo
1t was In the gladstone springtime,
And the tulips were aglow.
1t was in the gladstone springtime,
In the spring of long ago.
1 was going, she was coming;
She had shaken off her woe.
1t was on the road to Reno
Where the alimones grow.
"Tarry for a while" / murmured,
For I'll soon be back, you know
Wait until I've burst my bondage"
Thus l whispered soft and low.
But she shook her wavy tresses,
As she gayly answered no.
1t was on the Road to Reno
Where the merry widows grow,
Where the widowe1s ex leges \ =
Softly come and softly 60
On the road unknown to husbands
Who remain in statu quo.

LITERARY GRUBsTAKB WANTED
Results of Prof. WaIIace'a Researches
in London.
Chioa 90 Tribune


Spurred on by the discovery of Prof
Wallace Of the University of Nebraska OF
hitherto unknown documents relating to
Shakespeare's life in London, Parliament
has ordered a report from the record office
of the British government which is intended
to sort out and classify the tons of docu-
ments, hundreds of years old, which lie in
the archives of that department. This is
an undertaking which, under English
methods, will undoubtedly be we'll done
and with great elaboration. 1t will re-
quire many years, infinite research, and
large fortune to determine what these
records are which are now piled pel nell
in the vaults and to discover what rela-
ton they bear, If any, to English history
or to any OF its great characters.
. That is remained for an unknown Ameri-
can scholar to reveal to the world the un-
discovered chapter in Shakespeares life
was matter OF pride to the former S
countrymen, as it was OF some humiliation
to those of the latter. 1t is understood BY
Mr. Wallace's friends in America that he
is In position to make further discoveries
OF still more important nature il he can
find the means to remain in London an
other year and pursue his researches. His
university is doing what IL can, but Il is
not an endowed institution and cannot
spare funds which are intended for the
more practical courses OF popular educa-
ton. 1t would be greatly to the credit of
American scholarship if what Mr.. Wallace
has already done could be supplemented
by still further discoveries and II the
funds for this purose could come from
those having the honor OF our scholarship
at heart. Does this not appeal to Mr.. Car.
negie?

There was once man who fell-in love-
But he soon got up again.

In his dense ears she mumbled.
He didn't stay long where she ditched him
For I've heard 1t seid since then
That he found the only girl in the world
And she pulled him up again.
And here's another story
I'm eager to relate
A man went to see his fiancee -
And he was told to wait:
He sat him down upon chair
Where pins were put-and them
Wen It amt on record what he said
