Mine avarice sees in a dream;
A dream of the radiant treasures
That are mine TO have and to hold;
For the maid I'm to marry hath riches
And I'm wedding for jewels and gold.
For the gold in the rippling tresses
That shine with sunny sheen;
For the rubies in lips Of crimson
And the pearls that lie between;
For the blue in the blue OF the sap

In eyes that are brave and sweet;
The eyes that falter at parting
And eyes that brim when we meet.
But the crowns of a dozen kingdoms
And the gems of blazing mart
And all of the miser mountains
Hold no wealth like the wealth OF

These are the riches I covet,
The treasures of Ophirs untold;
And clasping this radiant dowry
I'll marry for Jewels and gold.

JAMES $. SHERMAN Is
NEAR DEATHS DOOR
VICE PRESIDENT FAILING STEAD.
lily, SAYS PHYSICIAN.
Patients Family Constantly With Him
and Friends Advised of Serious
ness of His Condition

ness of His Condition.
Utica, n. Y, Oct. 2S-James S. Sher'
man, vice president of the United
States, is seriously i'll and steadily fail
ing at his home here. While his ply
sician, DR.. Fayette H. Peck, believes
there is no immediate danger of death
yet the distinguished patients condl-
ton is such that it is matter Of con-
jectura how much longer he can with
stand the ravages of the. disease with
which he is suffering.
DR.. Peck, at 8 o'clock tonight, au-
thorized this statement regarding Mr.
sherman's illness and his present con-
dition:
Expected End in June.
s'Mr. Sherman has been sick all OF
this year, due to the condition of the
kidneys, hardening of the arteries and
softening of the muscles Of the heart,
which is somewhat stretcheil. Mr..
Sherman had an attack in the Adiron-
dacks in June and I expected him to
die. He improved steadily and very
satisfactorily until the latter part OF
August. Since then his condition has
been aggravated and he has steadily
been failing.
NO Immediate Danger"
'sMr. Sherman is now in the condl-
ton which that sort of trouble leads
to and is very seriously i'll, but there
is. I believe, no immediate danger OF
death
After day of discouraging symp-
toms. Mr.. Sherman rallied at nightfall
and continued to show improvement
during the evening. This is due in no
small measure to powerful medicines
Whether he can much longer combat
the trouble of his kidneys and compli-
cations is matter of grave doubt
Members Of his family are with him
constantly and his intimate friends
have been notified that he has been
failing steadily.
Diagnosis Confirmed.
Shortly before II o'clock tonight a
son of the vice president made public
this statement, signed by the attend
ing physicians:
"After consultation, in the case OF
Vice President Sherman, the diagno-
sis of weakened heart muscle, the re-
sult of overwork with some kidney in
yolvment, is confirmed.
"(SienAd) F. H. Peck.
Henry L. Elsner. "
DR.. Peck is the family physician and
DR.. Elsner is a specialist residing IN
