 FREDERICK REMINGTON. He knew the West as only few have
 known:
 He knew the men. he knew the
 horses, too;
 The swarthy, silent trapper, all
 alone,
 The cowman-and he knew what
 they could do. The range to him was an open book. The peaks and crags and hills-he
 knew them well; He knew the secrets in each canyon
 brook.
 And what the great plains whis-
 pered hc could tell. At his delft touch the canyons sprang
 to Fife;
 It glowed with all the colors of
 the West;
 His paint tubes told the horrors Of
 the strife
 The charge, the savage war-whoop
 and the rest. He showed the white-topped wagons
 jolting on,
 The grim and hardy plainsmen as
 they rode;
 The camp fire in the gray and early
 dawn,
 The pack train with its lashed
 and swaying load. He knew the cattle and the brand
 they bore;
 He drew them with keen and
 master hand; He saw and saved to us the West
 before
 There passed the remnants of that
 valiant band. He gave to us the cow-boy-care
 free, brave;
 The riders of the range he pie
 tured true; Twas left for him their herds and
 them to save,
 Ere they had passed forever from our view.
 A monument to him who knew the
 Vest
 Whose brush so delightfully."- told it's
 every tale; The horses and the men who loved
 the best;
 When he. too. rode the dusty
 cattle trail, 4 shaft to him whose canvas gleams
 and glows
 With colors of the life he loved so
 well,
 And from whose painted pictures
 ever flows
 charm which weaves OCT us
 magic spell.
 I~ ho rgo,a date for the meeting of the club and win be observed as Arizona day.

 Although we might enjoy the new songs of the day, yet how much dearer to our hearts are the songs of days long since gone by. The songs that mother used to sing, the old melodies of the South, and the songs of patriotism touch chord of love and bring a thrill of hap piness such as no song of the mod ern time can ever do. old songs were chosen for the program of the musicale given under the auspices of Prof. c. F. Krinbill last Saturday evening at the Gadsden, and the appreciation of the large audience was shown by the manner in which each number was received.
