o, what shall the great David bring? ?
Grown and specter and palm,
Harp and cymbal and psalm;
Even this is the gift he shall bring.
A gift A gift! To the King!
And what shall the poor widow bring?
Her two mites-treasure small
But for love, giving all:
And this is the gift she shall bring.

Earthly store a mere part
The King asketh the heart;
And this is the gift we shall bring.

OF the supreme court to the effect that
the governor was a part of the legis-
nature. The constitution makes II
mandatory upon the governor to COM

lure, recommending such measures as
ne may deem expedient. The governor
votes in the Affirmative on every pro-
posed act in approving a measure, and
votes In the negative through the veto
power.

Ladies Attending to
ST., Michael's Cemetery

The committee of ladies appointed
sometime ago to clean up st. Mi
chaers cemetery have made a remark
able improvement in the appearance
of the city of the dead, having al
ready had the trash removed and
weeds cut, ETC., once and are now go
ing over the work for the second time.
1t was the duty Of the ladies to
solicit subscriptions for the purpose
Of carrying out this work, and in this
respect they were most successful, and
desire to thank the many people who
contributed to the fund.
There Is no doubt that this work has
been beneficial to the health of the
community, and as soon as the city
can get the swamp place just south Of
the cemetery cleaned up, there is no
reason why this section of the city
should not be as healthy as any part of
town.
