/ stood tip-toe upon little hill
Toe air was cooling and so very still
That the sweet buds which with a
modest pride
Pull droopin9ly, in modest curves
aside
Their scantily leaved and finely tap
ering stems
Had not lost those starry diadems
Gaught from the early sobting of
the morn
The clouds were pure and wilite as
fiocks new shorn
And fresh from the clear brook.
sweetly they slept
On the blue fields of heaven and
then there crept
A little noiseless noise among the
leaves,
Born Of the very sigh that silence
heaves;
For not the faintest motion could be
seen
OF all the shades that slanted Ger
the green
There was VIDE wandering for the
greediest eye
To peer about upon variety;
Far around the horizons crystal air
to skim
And trace toe dwindled edges of its
brim:
To picture out the quaint and curl
Gus bending
OF fresh woodland alley. never
ending;
Or by the bowery clefts. and leafy
shelves,
Guess where the jaunty streams re
fresh themselves.

JUDGE WILLIAMS DEAD.
He Was the last Surviving Member of
Grants Cabinet.

Portland, Ore, April 4.-Judge George
H Williams, the last surviving mem
Der of President Grants cabinet, Is
dead.
Judge Williams death was entirely
unexpected and came during the night,
his relatives having no intimation Of
his passing until they went to awaken
him at 7:3O o'clock this morning. Judge
Williams gave up active work several
years ago because Of poor health, but
his condition had not occasioned alarm.
Judge Williams was born in New
Lebanon, N. Y, March 26. 1928 He
was admitted to the bar in Iowa In
1914 and became district judge. In 1858
he was sent to Oregon as chief justice
of the territorial supreme court and
drafted the constitution OF the state OF
Oregon. AS senator from Oregon he
served on the Alabama claims commits
sion and the British Columbia boundary
commission and was appointed attor-
ney general by President Grant in 1871,
serving until 1875. In 1874 he was
nominated as chief justice of the SUI
preme court Of the United States, but
his nomination was not confirmed by
the senate. On his retirement from
the cabinet, he returned to Oregon to
resume the practice Of law and held
his last public office In 1902, when he
was elected mayor Of Portland, serv-
ing until 1905.

YES she SAID she would go to Texas ;,
which, it is alleged, will concern the
friendship of Mrs. Schone and the other
convict employed on the farm, whose
name has not yet been mentioned.
The defense, it is understood, will at
tempt to show that the $3.50 taken by
ey. Schone seeks a divorce because OF
irregular conduct of his wife, and full
title to his farm of 100 acres and 5000
in personal property because of his sep
aration agreement with his wife concern

Hill of this city this afternoon the list
of unmarried men at the fire depart

WHO'S AFRAID, ANYHOW
Taft Knows What's Going on in the
Roosevelt Camp.

Washington, April 4.-President Taft
is in no doubt about the attitude of
Theodore Roosevelt toward his admin
istration. Mr.. Roosevelt is not depend
ing upon chance meetings with Ameri-
cans, newspapers or others for infor-
nation as to the attitude of his sue
cessor toward the problems besetting
the executive. These two sentences
comprise the substance of a report cur
rent in Washington today. This report,
to state it directly, was that while
there may have been no recent direct
communication between the two men
President Taft and former President
Roosevelt have been kept in touch with
each other by means Of mutual friends.
Neither confirmation nor denial was to
be had at the White House. 1t is
known that Senator Root, who is very
close to Colonel Roosevelt, recently
wrote to the former president at Khar-

1t also is known that William Loeb.

rotary, now collector of customs at
cation with Colonel Roosevelt both by
letter and cablegram. Mr.. Loeb has
been a frequent visitor at the White
House Of late and has seemed to be on
notably friendly terms with President
Taft. These incidents, it is believed,
have been largely responsible for the
story that is now current and for the
statement that President Taft reads
with complacency the report from
abroad that he has lost Mr.. Roose-
