Call to him, cry to him,
Fly to him,
Bid him delay not.
Then when he comes to me,
! must sit quiet;
Still as a stone
All silent and cold,
II my heart riot
Crush and defy it,
Should I grow bold,
Say one dear thing to him,
All my life long TO him.
Cling to him
What to atone
Is enough for my SHINING?
This were the cost to me,
This were my winning
That he were lost to me.
Not as q lover
At last II he part from me,
Tearing my heart from me,
Hurt beyond cure
Calm and demure
Then must I hold me,
In myself fold me.
Lest he discover;
Showing no sign to him
BY look Of mine to him
What he has been to me-
How my heart turns to him,
Follows him, yearns for him,
Prays him to love me.

THE CARD CLUBS
WILL CELEBRATE LENT.

Lent, which Is always so generally
celebrated in Pensacola, will receive
its usual attention this year, nearly
every card club having disbanded for
the coming forty days and forty
nights. There will be very little So
cial activity in the city, in short, from
any standpoint, for there are many
spring weddings and social events of
every description to rest up for"
now that the opportunity is afforded.
Eliminating the religious side of
Lent, the idea has its common sense
basis which Is recognized by many
people, for the long rest falls at a time
when every one is more or less tagged
with the seasons gayety, and when
the human system Is to undergo GER
tain changes peculiar to the spring
time OF the year.
Abstaining from the eating of too
much meat aids the physical side of
US, too, at this time OF year, and So
ciety has accepted the practice of
really eliminating the large festivities
in communities where the church idea
is not all-predominant either.
Many OF the card clubs will sew for
charity in the Lenten tide. and there
will be an atmosphere Of utter relaxa-
ton in society which Is to be very
grateful indeed to tired nerves and
tired bodies.
When Easter comes along this year.

various sets in which they are so
popular.

til the district court of Usage county,

bridge.
The case is probably without a par

Pawhuska, where the government made
fairs of the Usage Indians, got its mail
by stage from Elgin, Kan, a small
town that borders the state line. Just
south of Elgin is the Caney river and

high water it became necessary for the
government to build a bridge. The

out of Usage tribal funds. It is not on
a section line, for in those days there
was no such thing as a section line 1t
was located IN the most suitable place
without regard to lines and ever since
being opened has been used constantly,
in that section of the country.
But times changed. The Usage lands
were allotted and a railroad was built
to Pawhuska. The government had no
further use for it's bridge. When Mrs.

100 acre tract surrounding the bridge
and it is said that her deed read that
the allotment included the land "and
all improvements thereon" BY that
right she and her husband claim the

bridge to the county and asked $4,000
for it, including a road to and from it.

but few days later the river become
frozen and he reopened the bridge be-
cause the farmers could not cross on

several times, only to be reopened by
some angry traveller. 1t will be a cause
of trouble until the case is decided
definitely by the courts.

A REAL LORD m PRISON.
ssSir Frederick Cray Landed in the
Federal Penitentiary.

te0ofdl F6nlL00Lldfys
Leavenworth, Kan, March ga
real live lord arrived at the govern
ment prison. A guard of ten Wash
ington officers accompanied him on
the trip from the capital city, to see
that "his lorship'' was not lost on the
long journey.
ssSir Frederick Gray is the man.
His number at this time Is probably
about seven thousand. It might be
that officials of the penitentiary would
recognize him the more easily if
spoken of in that way.
The career of the quondam lord in
this country dates from the time of
his arrival months ago. In the city
of Washington he sought the best
porous, but his matrimonial or other
plans failed in the short time which
his ready cash lasted. Then he paid
his bills with checks royalty signed
with his lordship's full title
It was when clearing houses return
ed the checks stamped mo funds"
that the "lord'' disappeared. He was
arrested and sentenced to serve a SEN
tence in the penal institution here for
obtaining money under false pretenses.
He appealed the case, but in the
meantime his photograph was recog-
nized by a Scotland Yard detective as
that of one George Douglas, who had
served three years in English prisons
He began serving his sentence yester-
day.
Twenty-three other prisoners ar
rived from Washington in the car
lot with Gray. All were colored but
two. They are William Smedley and
oliver Christopher. Smedley will
serve three years for robbery and
Christopher i've years for house
breaking and larceny. Both are
white.

Home Finding society
When the mother, who lives in Clay
Center, Kan, wrote to the superin-

other children. She gave references.
Mr.. Ma1oney went to the person named
for reference, who lived in Kansas
City. There was a laugh and the man
told DR.. Maloney that If the woman
at Clay Center wanted to adopt a child
to let her have one, by all means.
For he said, "she has reared
fourteen children and she has done
the job WELL
So a baby was placed in the home,
and letters from the Clay Center fos-

duce Rain and Don't Want 1t.
Pitsburg, Kan, March 22.-The in
discriminate discharging of large
quantities of dynamite by the foreign
miners at Breezy Hill and Franklin
has so aroused the farmers living in
that vicinity that they are threatening

stop to it. 1t is estimated that more
than one hundred pounds of the ex-
plosive was set off by these foreigners
Saturday night.

farmers living near these camps, were

loking toward putting a stop to this
practice that the farmers call an out
rage.
