TWO LOVES.
Two loves came up long, wide aisle,
Aud knelt at a low white gate;
One tender and true, with the shyest
smile.
one strong. true, and elate.
Two lips spoke in a firm true way,
And two lips answered soft and low,
In one true hand such a little hand
lay
Fluttering frail as flake of snow.

Two prayers went, wing to wing

God blest them both in the holy place
A long, brief moment the rite was
done;
On the human love fell the heavenly
grace
Making two hearts forever one.
Between two lengthenng rows of
smiles.
One sweetly shy, one proud, elate,
TWO loves passed down the long, wide
aisles.

Martin saw at once the danger this

car had gathered great momentum and
was speeding over the rails, swaying
from side to side. At the same time
Martin heard the shrek Of west
bound express from Jersey City, due TO

opened wide his throttle. and the en-

MOOSE FIGHT LINDSEY
Enemies, Charging Treason,
Aim to Drive Him from Party.
lBy Tclegraph 20 The TrIbunc


Denver, Dec. 1S.-Changes OF treason
and conspiracy have broken out in the
Bull Moose organization Of Colorado.
Treason is charged to Judge Ben B.
Lindsey, and conspiracy is alleged
against Lindsey's opponents. The main
accusation against Lindsey, which
emanates from anonymous sources, is
that he secretly aided in the election
Of Elias a. Ammons as Governor on
the Democratic ticket.
A movement is on foot il is learned.
to call Judge Lindsey before the third
party leaders and read him out or the
party unless he gives a satisfactory
explanation. Lindsey's friends say
that his enemies aim to discredit him
with Colonel Roosevelt
