And if the tempest lowers.

THE NEW IMMIGRATION

There i~ rrna'kahIp poem,
>Hy> Henry Van Dyke. in the No.
vrmbrr number ot the Atlantic
Monthly. written by d "ouu4
American writer. Robert Haven
SrhHuitirr.
Tn" following clipping yive<
Dr. Van Dykes interpretation Of
the poem:
There are some people who
think that poetry is Of no real Ser
vice in the world; that it is only
for ornament and amusement.
They are short ighted people.
They do not see that poetry has
power to reveal truth through
the imagination and to quicken
sympathy through the emotions.
and so to prepare the way and TO
deepen the influence of religion. |
do not say that all poetry uses or
intends to use this power. But |
say that there is some poetry IN
which this power is present, con-
Sciously or unconSciously. so that
any thoughtful person can recoE-
niZe it. And this is the reason,
over and above the distinct liter
AIRY value of the verse. why | hope
that many will read Mr.. Schautf-
ler's poem. which is called "Scum
o the Earth. y
\ strange title. almost repel-
lent! But that is the point of it.
The poet imagines himself stand
inc at 1.-The gate Of the West anI
looking on the throngs of mod
orn immigrants from Europe to
the New World. The name of
thoughtless contempt which is APP
piled to them echoes in his mind.
But with it there comes swift
misgiving as to the justice OF such
words Of scorn; and through the
door which this noble doubt opens
rise successive visions Of the lands
and races from which these seek
ers Of liberty have come.
The Greek. whose fatherland
was the home of philosophy and
art: the Pole. the Bohemian. the
Slav. coming from the ancient
haunts of music and romance: the
Italian. whose race has given the
world Il Columbus. Dante. 4
Michelangelo: the jew. whose
prophets and poets in the past ut
tered the words that still move
the present. and Of whom. accord
inc to the flesh. Christ came. who
is over all; are these inoecc
"scum o the earth'!
The imaginative vision of tht
poet brings the answer in a tiasi
of splendid insight. Our crude
scorn of these peoples is thns
of which we should repent.
"Mercy for lis who dare despi>,
Men in whose loinS our Homo
lies;
Mothers of men who shall! bring t.
The glory of Titan. the grnndcH
If HuSS:
Children in whose frail arms shall
Prophets and singers and saints o
the West. y
Now what is this but the splrl
of Christianity applied through
poetry to one of the greatest prob
lens of American life? The ney
immigration is a hard fact. How
shall we meet it? With doubt, AM
fear. and hate; or with faith, ant
hope. and love-
Shall we look at these people
as the scribes and Pharisees woul'
have looked at them, judging onl,
hv the outward appearance? o

EXPLOSION MONDAY MORNING
AT THE NEW SMITH BUILD
ING

Just before eleven o'clock Monday
morning a tremendous explosion 1t
the new brick building on Main
street owned by DR. d. NJ. Smith,
which was just about completed and
almost ready for occupancy by the
Roess Lumber Company, caused
great deal of excitment and immad-
lately big crowds rushed to the scene
to ascertain the cause. 1t was dis
covered that there had been some
trouble with the gas pipes and Mr..
George Mershon, of the gas company
was trying to locate the trouble The
rush of cold air into the leaking
pipes in some manner caused the eY-
plosion and such was the force of
same that Mr.. Merschon was blown
entirely across the room, the ceiling
in the rear of the building was ruined,
many of the steel plates being ripped
eff anG demolished and the big plate
alase windows il the front of the
building, which had just been put in,
we're llown into millions of frag-
ments. MIR. Merschon miraculously
escaped injury and number CT
ToTkmen who were in the building ct
the time were unhurt but their nerves
were somewhat shattered by the sud-
den jar and concussion. Mrs. Smith
at the time of the explosion, was in
DR.. Smiths office over the express of
fee next door, and several who were
in the express office felt the effects
OF the explosion and were consider
ably frightened for a few seconds
thinking that it was an earthquake Or
sorpe similar disaster.
%he fire alarm was sent in and the
company quickly responded but there
was 10 blaze so there was nothing
the fremen could do.
There were several explanations
for the cause of the accident but the
exact cause is not known and it was
truly fortunate that no one was IN
jured. The damages to the building
will amount to five or six hundred dol
lars, which is covered by insurance.

WESTER AGAIN AIN HOOK"

A young man named Wester, who
several years ago was sent to the
state convict camps after conviction
on a forgery charge in our circuit
court, but escaped after serving only
small portion of his time, is again
in trouble here.
Wester it seems decided to return
to Ocala and take chances of escap-
ing detection by our officers. He
came here about week ago and the
authorities had notice to be on the
lookout for him.
On Monday night just before he
closing hour for the saloons he went
to the Ocala House Wine Rooms and
after using a little of his excellent
persuasive powers, succeeded in
having Mr. McCorkle, the proprietor
to cash check signed with the name
of Sheriff Galloway for sixteen dol
lars.
Shortly after he had gone Mr.. Gal
loway was seen and upon being told
that such a check had been cashed,
Immediately pronounced it forgery.
He started out on search for the
young man, who at this time was I'm
known TO the parties at interest.
Sheriff Galloway informed Mr.. Ed
Carmichael of the incident and told
him to be on the lookout for anyone
who might try to cash any check with
his name signed to it. 1t was then
Air Carmichael's time to take notice"
and he declared that he had only a
short time before closing his place
cashed such a piece of paper for a
young man for the sum of twenty two
dollars.
This was the signal for a real man
hunt to begin, and after searching
pretty well all over the city he
hour
His surprise was great when the
sheriff told him that he was badly
needed at the state turpentin camps,
and that he would also relieve him Of
a portion of his recently acquired
wealth. Wester was recognized by
: one of the searching party as the
man who passed the bogus paper, and
by Mr.. Galloway as the young man
who was sentenced several years ago
for too freely using Sheriff Gordon
name at the bottom of checks and
obtaining money on them.
Wester was taken to the county
jail and will Immediately be turned
over to the state authorities to finish
up his balance due" to the lessees
1t is not thought that he will be
given preliminary hearing in he
present case, but that it will in all
probability be taken directly to the
grand jury at the next months ses-
sion of the circuit court.
