I've Travelled, aye, full many a mile,
Der land and sea, in air.
I've seen strange sights and heard weird sounds,
But none could compare
To the splitting, screeching racet,
To the reverberating roar,
When Jimmy raps to centre and Fisher ties the score!
They don't boom and shoot the cannon;
Nix You'll never hear a gun;
But you'd believe nine, mines exploded
When a Tiger scored a run.
They don't blow the brazen bugle;
They don't thump the big bass drum.
But when "SWats" steps up and swipes one,
You'll wish they did, by gum
For the noise they make is deafcning,
Like no ether noise on earth.
Twenty thousand fans a howling-
Harsh and hoarse for all their worth!
Oh I've smeied the smoke Of battle,
Seen the glitter of the sword;
Watched brave men moved down like cattle,
While a hundred cannon roared.
| have seen the wild waves breaking
Der a ship within their grip;
Heard her timbers moaning, quakng,
Heard them crack and crash and rip.
| have seen the flash of lightning;
Heard the thunder peal on peal;
The frightened beasts OF jungle,
In deaths throes screech and squeal
/ have stood near burning buildings,
Where the flames were raging worst
With the fire suffering and cracking
Like a thousand souls accursed!
Yes, my ears have often hardened
To a thousand %naddening screams.
Mine eyes have seen a hell itself
Its ter1ors-in my dreams.
But all these terrorS fade away,
Their din is rolled in one,
When Seymours singing single
Sends home the winning run.

Hewsboy Property Makes Its Sec ond Cleanup and Stamps Out
 $2o0 a Day

From the NewsbOy property it is reported that all of the miners employed there have gone out on a strike, for the reason that the change of management brought with it lengthening of the work ing hours. The new manager. Louis Golden, stated that iO-hOur shifts would bc worked hereafter instead of cight-bour, which have been in vogue there.
 For that reason the men decid- cd that they would not continue to work there. Their places havc been filled with new men.
 Mir. Sherard came to town with the second cleanup of the present year. The amalgam weighed 15S ounces, while the gold, after re- torting, weighed a little over i95 ounces. Representing f5 days operation, the gold from the cleanup amounts to an average of about S200 to the day. This is considered to be good showing, considering the fact that the ore is coming from one stope.-iMner.
