INDIAN SUM M Err.

At last the toil-encumbered days are
over,
And airs of noon are mellow as the
morn;
The blooms are brown upon the seed
ing clover,
And brown the silks that plume the
ripening corn,
And mute the farms along the purple
valley;
The full barns muffed to the beams
with sheaves;
You hear no more the noisy rout and
rally
Amongst the tenant-masons of the
caves.
A single quail, upstarting from the
stubble,
Darts whirring past, and, quick
alighting down,
Is lost, as breaks and disappears a bub-
BILE,
Amid the covert of the leafy brown
And now, from yonder beech trunk
sheer and sterile.
The rat-tat-tat of the woodpecker's

The sharp staccato barking of a squir-
rel.
A dropping nut, and all again is still
irvine

government more than $650,0OO. The

been furnished to the contractor who
is building the dam.
The reservoir created by the dam is
the largest artificial body of water in
the world. It's capacity is 81 billion
cubic feet and if its water were spread
over Delaware. it would cover the en-
tire surface Of that state a foot in
