THE LAsT GUEST.

CFrom the london News.)
The eims are leatless 'gaiist the sky,
the oaks are almost bare,
The breathless squirel.haryesters are
storingE winter fare,
Tie tawny needles OF the larch drift
down from golden spires,
But the beech.hedge rings the wood:
land round with sunsets ling.
z. ring fires.
Each night the frost a silver veil
along the landscape filings,
To change at morn the wispy mIsts
like fairies filmy wings
Each night the elfin spinners weave
their webs O. sllken sheen,
Their gossamcrs that wind o. dawn
sets sailing DER the green.
The swallows left us. long ago, but
from the Northlands white
The fleldfares and the redwings come
like pilgrims through the night;
The lapwIhgs leave tie lonely fells
to roam the plow.d lands nigh,
And wildly sweet the storm.cock sings
of springtime by and by
White hoods the far.ofr hills put on,
the winds more coldly blow;
The shepherd downward brings his
ilocks against first fall OF snow.
The robin preens his russell wing the
cshelt'ring homestead near.
And Autumn wistful.eyed but waits
the last guest OF the year.

so great a number of people had to be

BUILDING STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
New Bank Structure at KitzmiIler
Damaged $500.

The new building recently erected and
and occupied by the First National Bank
at Kitzmiller was struck by lightning
during the storm which was general
throughout Garrett county Sunday
night and damaged to the extent of
about $500, fully covered by insurance.
First reports sent out from Kitzmiller
were to the effect that the damage to
the structure amounted to $500 or more
which is quite erroneous
The lightning was conducted into the
building over a telephone wire leading
into it, destroying the instrument,
which was resting upon the counter and
setting the latter on fire. A portion Of
the woodwork was burned and one
window was broken as a result Of the
heat, besides the damage to the walls
by the intense smoke as a result Of the
fire.

SKAGGS BOOSTS
 o. w. UNDERWOOD
One Time Resident of Alabama De- clares Underwood Will Lend
 Dignity to Ticket

W. II. Skaggs of Chicago, who is in
 Alabama on personal business, and who was a resident of this state for many years, said yesterday that oscar W. un- derwood was considered a big man by the
 reople of all sections of the country, and
 that his residence in the south would
 bave little effect upon the view held of
 him by the broad minded voters of the
 United States.
 MT. Skaggs is inclined to favor Gov. Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey for the democratic nomination, but said: MT. Underwood, by reason of his qualifiea- tions, his broad policies and his undis-
 puted ability as a leader of men, can cas- fly secure the nomination for vice pres
 iGent if he cares to take it, in my opin- ion. And if he should become the com
 promise candidate for the presidency on the democratic ticket l am not inclined to consider seriously any objections by the American voters on the grounds of being a southerner. Sectionalism has about vanished, and wherever a man qualified to help his country is found it
 is reasonably safe 10 say that his geo.
 graphical location will have little effect q know MT. Underwood only in a most pleasant way. He is & gentleman, and one that can make friends with little eff | fort. He would lend dignity to the demo- cratic ticket. The people trust him for | h,s work on the ways and means commit | tee which has shown him to be an able man."
