%E dead!
~ Sit and watch by her side
an hour.
That is her bookshelf, this her bed;
She plucked that piece of gera-
nium-fower,
Beginning to die, too, in the glass;
The shutters are shut, no light may
Save two long rays through the
hinges chink.
Sixteen years old when she died,
Perhaps she had scarcely heard
my name;
1t was not her time to love; beside,
Her life had many hope and aim,
Duties enough and little cares,
And now was quiet, now astir,
Till Gods hand beckoned unawares;
And the sweet white brow is all
Of her.
Is it too late then, Evelyn Hope?
What, your soul was pure and
true,
The good stars met in your horo-
scope,
Made you of spirit, fire and dew
And, just because | was thrice as old
And our paths in the world di-
verged SO wide,
Each was naught to each, must / be

We were fellow mortals, naught

No, indeed, for God above
Is great to grant, as mighty to
make,
And creates the love to reward the
love:
claim you still, for my own loves
Delayed it may be for more lives yet
Through worlds I shall traverse
not few:
Much is to learn, much to forget
Ere the time be come for taking

HiIlyer. Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. on the proposed freight rate in
creases proceeded rather calmly in the
astor gallery Of me Waldorf-Astoria TO-
day, with heads OF the accounting depart
ments Of various railroads telling what
their increased operating expenses would
be under their new wage schedules. and
what their income would be under the
proposed new tariffs. showing that one
would about Offset the other.
William H. Wadhams interjected the
subject OF Communication rates. and said
he was not appearing for commuters gem
orally. but thought when the carriers put
in their figures on probable income based
on the proposed new rates they ought TO
say whether any part Of the increase was
due TO higher Communication rates or was
all due TO freight rates.
