The PAUPtR'S GRAVE.

The tall, rank grass bends DER the heap,
And there its fingers interlace,
AS though a loving guard 'twould keep
Above the pauper's resting place.
No footstep ever fingers there,
Nor sorrows tear bedews the mound;
No traces of a mothers care,
Or wife's devotion there are found.
He lies and crum5les all alone;
Forgotten-O how sad! How sad!
To think that in this wide worlds throng
Not one laments the pauper dead.
But God remembers-His warm loan
Eufolds him. holds him safely pent.
y Gods wild flowers blanket that lone tomb
His trees stand as a monument.

Mail Train frozen to Rails
AT IynChbur0

A rare incident in the history of
railroading in Virginia occurred at
Lynchburg when the Washington
Chattanooga fast mail train of the
Norfolk & Western actually froze
to the rails. Stopping in a low
place the dripping water from the
pipes caught the wheels, the tenn
perature being below zero the train
was locked so securely in the ice
that it required the use of three
engines to move it, humping from
the rear being resorted to.

Burlsy Society wins
In the ESheiby Suit.


Despite the opinion of Judge
Howard G. HOLSTER, Of the
United States District Court that
the contracts made by the Burley
Tobacco Society of Kentucky
with the E. o. Eshelby Tobacco
Company. of Covington. KY.
we're in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law, a jury in the case
rendered a verdict in favor of the
q .fenasnt. Burnley Tobacco So
ciety, refusing damages, for which
the plaintiff, the E. o. Eshelby
Company, was suing in the sum of
1896, 900.
The action was brought as the
result of the purchase of tobacco
at Winchester. KY, in 1907, by
the Eshelby Company. for which
the price of IL cents a pound was
paid, and which price the plaintiff
declared, in a petition. was in ex-
cess of what it should have beer,
because of the fact that the Burley
Tobacco Society controlled the
Burley Tobacco crop of that year.

SAVED FROM RUIN
Madison Square Garden Will Not Be
Destroyed as Planned.

New York, Jan. 16.-By an agreement
entered into Madison Square Garden,
where the New York horse show and
many other notable functions have been
held for years, will not be destroyed to
make room for a business structure as
was announced several weeks ago. One
OF the associations which holds an an
nuai show at the Garden in combina-
ton with a circus company has guar
anteed an annual rental of $275 600 for
the structure and this being sufficient
to maintain the building and assure a
good return on the investment, the
owners consented.
In addition to the guarantee there will
be enough open dates to make the total
returns for each year in the neighbor-
hood of 100000. The guarantee, how
ever, is on a graded scale, increasing
each year.

Jan Kubelik is two years older than
when he was here last-and many
years wiser if his concert before the
st. Francis Musical Art society last
night may be taken as a guide. There
is now a certain deeply human ele-
ment in his work which was lacking
before.
zone is accustomed to associate
Kubelik with the idea Of technical
skill. But it wasn't technique that
one thought of last night-at least not
after the wizard warmed up. The
MendeIssoha Concerto began in the
old Kubelik style. 1t savored of ice
water. A society audience is proverbi-
ally a difficult thing for an artist to
master, and Kubelik for a few moments
plainly showed the handicap. But the
very first cadenza broke the unwelconle
spell, and after that the playing grew
more and more significant, and toward
the end Kubelik unbosomed himself as
he never did to a San Francisco au-
dience before
"Tbe audience reciprocated in kind.
and the indefinable something which
seems to feat like a magnetic cloud
above the stage when things are going
right was soon in evidence. 1t was one
of those enjoyable occasions when the
player and hearer succeed in establish
ing a mutual understanding"
