LlTTLE BOY AND HIS DREAM.

LITTLE BOY AND HIS DREAM.
The little boy smiled in his sleep
that night
AS he wandered to Twilight Town;
And his face lit up with a heavenly
light ..
Through the shadows that drifted
down.
But he woke next morning with tear
stained eye
In the light of the gray dawn's
CLEAN,
And out from the stiffness We heard
him cry:
"rve lost my dream-my dream"
And he told rs then in his childish
way
Of the wonderful dream he'd
known;
He had wandered away from the
land of play
To the distant Land OF the Grown,
He had won his share of the fame
and fight
In the struggle and toll of men;
And he sobbed and sighed in the
breaking light:
Il want my dream again"
AS the years passed by the Little
Boy grew
TIL he came to the Land Of the
Grown;
And the dream of his early youth
came true,
The dream that he thought had
flown:
Yet once again he smiled in his
sleep ..,-
When those nearby might have
heard him weep.
Il want my dream-my dream"
For he dreamed of the Yesterday
of Youth,
And the smile on a mothers face.

CALNE At The COAST

Examiner: Looking q biz worn ar
or her long trip. Mime Emma Calvt
arrived here this morning on the Jap
anese liner Chiyo Maru from iionolu
lu She Is accompanied by a. uaspar
RI. her husband, and will probably re-
main in San Francisco until the latter
part Of next week
Upon the arrival Of the liner the
singer caused much amusement by her
efforts to escape being photographed.
For nearly an hour she succeeded IN
eludlng the camera men. only 10 be
caught unawares as she attempted a
landing.
She was picking her way cautiously
down the Maru's gang plank when the
photographers jumped out from the
shadow Of the wharf and focused their
cameras upon her There was mo.
ments delay and then as Calve crossed
into a patch of sunlight the click Of
several machines was heard distinctly
Madame started, and then throwing up
her hands I'm a gesture of despair
turned a winning smile upon the
crowd.
Only a few minutes before she had
refused absolutely to submit to being
photographed
"No-no-no-no-no-no!" she snapped
out in answer to the plea Of one of the
most persistent
But just one, surely II will not put
you to too much trouble" another put
in.
"Oooh, but am so tired Re long
trip, Il make me so tired. For one
year have been travelling. Every
where have | gone and / do not want
re picture. zey make me so ugly"
AS she uttered the last syllable the
singer assumed a dark expression and
shook her head angrily.
Indeed, Madame was in no pleasant
mood. She had given up her trip to
Siberia because of the plague, only to
be confronted with new worries when
a case of smallpox was discovered on
the Maru. For a time II was thought
that the vessel would be quarantined
and that the diva would have to re.
main on the steamer. Then came the
bother of being vaccinated, although
! Calve escaped this, on the ground that
she had submitted to Il before leaving
on the trip. Gasparri, however, was
| not so fortunate, and this morning was
vaccinated with the other passengers.
For the past several months Nine.
Calve has been on n concert tour
through Australia, India, Japan and
other faraway places, She announced
this morning that her stay would be
too short in this city TO permit Of any
concerts, but that next season, when
she had fully recovered from tho or.
deals of her long trip, she would re.
turn.
