Ballade of Old Days

There's a song in my heart for the days
that are gone;
On, the merry, mad days of yesternight,
When we drank to success with our cares
In pawn,
When our purses were lean and our
No regret for today with tomorrow In
sight,
And no thought OF tomorrow because twas
today,
Can YOU tell me. my friends. are we
happy quite,
When our purses are fat, and our hearts
decay?
They were careless old days and they
ended with dawn;
And perhaps you remember, when panes
were white
With the snow that had drifted, when cur
tains were drawn,
When our purses were lean and our
hearts were light,
That we caYiled with Time, and denied
him the right
To remind us that hours we're slipping
away.
Does the picture, my friends, our SNUG
consciences smite
When our purses are fat and our hearts
decay?
Then a friend was a friend; both the wit
and the Drawn
Were at play in defense Of a comrade'
fight,
And the song that We sang was the song
OF the swan,
When our purses were lean and ouI
hearts were light.
Oh, my friends OF the past are there any
tonight
Who would honor friend without think
ing OF pay?
Is there one OF us left who would give
OF his might
When our purses are fat and our hearts
decay2
L'ENVOI
There's song in my heart that begar
its flight
When our purses were lean and our hearts
were light,
/ But my muse is a-tremble and says me
] nay,
When our purses are fat, and our hearts
decay.

Hip Pocket Knocks Out Bootleg

Writing to the New York Tribune from
Oklahoma, c. NJ Sarchet says the hip
pocket business is very popular, while the
bootleg trick has lost its grip. He eX
plains this by saying that in great ma
jority of cases the present-day peddiers
OF booze carry It in half-pint and pint
bottles in their hip pockets.
In the old Indian Territory days, when
every citizen wore high boots, the first
method employed to get. liquor into the
Indian country was to conceal several flat
bottles In each bootleg. This custom was
soon discovered, however, by the watchful
officers and II was not long until every
time a deputy United States marshal
passed a suspected citizen he stopped him
and inspected his boots.
When II became dangerous to transport
liquor in ones bootleg other schemes were
put into operation. The axles OF wagons
, were made hollow. so that they would hold
\ feveral gallons OF liquor. and one time
~ cocoanut trade in Indian Territory was
mo1e extensive than In any other place IN
the west. Deputy marshals began to won
der why the citizens in that section had
developed such a fondness for cocoanuts,
but they were not long in learning that
the natural milk of the nut was taken out
and each shell then held a quart OF
whisky.
II used 70 be a proper question when
one was soliciting a drink TO ask. Get
anything in your boot?" But now the
polite question in the parlance OF the pro-
fcssion Is. Got anything ON your hip?"
Not only have the male "boOtleggers
adopted the pocket method, but It has also
been resorted to by the female purveyors
of intoxicants. Recently Sheriff Sale OF
Norman arrested q woman who had for
several weeks been able to dodge the
officers. She was searched and 1t was
found that her pttticoat contained twenty
pockets, each Just the right size TO hold
a half-pint bottle OF whisky. Another
woman was arrested at Pawhuska, in the
Usage Indian country, who had the bot
ties tied underneath her petticoats by

MEMOIRS OF DolNGS
 OF ROYALTY AWAITED

LONDON. July 20.-There S considerable talk in the West End clubs and society circles of the publication of a volume of memoirs. which are expected to eclipse even the famous literary achievement of Lady Cardigan in the intimacy and candor of its references to the af- fairs Of persOnages prominent in the society of the later Victorian era.
 4 great deal of mystery Is being maintained regarding the identity Uf the author Of the volume but the author is said to be a lady who was formerly a well known figure in London society, although the volume will be published anonym ously or under a pseudonym. The book is awaited with keen inter est, and, in some quarters, with a certain degree of uneasiness.

TEXAS FIGHT
 WEARS CLOSE
Bitter Anti-Saloon Campaign of Past Few Months WiIl Close at the
 Polls Saturday
ALL INTERESTS INVOLVED

AUSTIN. Texas, July 20.- Texas IS about to go Co one of the stiffost tests made anywhere in the country between the liquor interests and the anti-saloon forces. The state campaign which has been waged with a bitterness that has seemed 10 increase daily for the past three months will close tomorrow and on Sefurday the voters will recide whether or not an amendment pro Viding for statewide prohibition shall be added to the constitution Of Texas
 Reports from all directions in dicatcS Iistt SS!Ais is by far the most bitter political strugsiS sshich ever has occurred in the Lone sIaJv state. Today and tomorrow the fight will be brought to a whirl- wind finish with mass meetings in every nook and corner of the com monweaith. from the panhandle to the gulf, and from Fl Paso tO the forests of east Texas.
 It seems impossible to foecast the result of the special election with any degree of certainty. From the headquarters of both the pro hibitionists and the anti-prohibitiou. ists are emanating reports indicat. ing that both sides view the out look with equal confidence.
 Some onloOkers see in the re suits Of the last democratic primary an indication of the vote in the coming election. To the majority however, the results of the recent overwhelming vote for railroad com missioner, Oscar B. COlquitt. the anti-prohibitionist candidate for gov ernor. was boiled, but at the same time great demand for the sub mission of the prob. g. -r-n g,.esti'-p was voted In democratic FeYas, nomination ir demo eca eic pTi- mary is equivalent to election. and although Mir Colquitt was assured of the post of governor, he was obliged by the votes of the people to submit to vote on the ques- ton Of prohibition.
 Throughout the campaign both sides have maintained headquarters in 8 number of the leading cities of the state. From these headquarters tons of literature have been mailed and hundreds Of speakers have been sent forth to stump the country from end to end. Governor ColQuitt himself has led the force of ant speakers. On the prohibitions side former Governor Campbell has been cne Of the most active workers The newspapers. the churches, the Y N. C. A. and numerous otber or ganizadons have lined mp on one side or the other in the campaign and many instances are cited where even families are split over the issue.
 The only feature of the struggle which stands out with unmistakable ciearness Is the fact that the pub lie generally is desirious fo- the saloon question to be definitely set tied once and for all for it has long been a bUgbear in Texas poi ities. But whether they want to vote out the saloon at the same time is a question that can be answered only by count of. the votes day after tomorrow.
