ON FIRST SEEING THE OCEAN,

A ND this is the dreamed Of wonder!
"A This at last Is the sea!
Billows Of liquid thunder
Vocal immensely!
But where Is the thrill Of glory
Born of a great surprise?
This is the old. old story:
These are the ancient skies.
NHILD Of the prairie expanses.
~ Often the soul of me
Hungered for long sea glances.
And here at last Is the sea.
Yon goes a sea gull flying;
There is a sinking mast.
This is the ocean crying.
This is the rune Of the vast.
RUT out in my mother country
- Ever since I was born
This Is the song my brother winds
Sang in the fields of corn.
And there in the purple midnights
Sullen and still with heat
This is the selfsame drone that ran
Over the heading wheat. 4.

While he vas attache Of the British
embassy in Washington the late Henry
Labouchere. when q young man.
turned up In New York one day
hungry and penniless.
At noon, with his usual reckless .dar-
ing, he entered a Broadway chop
house-one M~uldoon's-and ordered q
modest meal. But he had no idea how
he would pay for this meal. Perhaps
he would leave his hat or boots In
pledge tor 1t. As he pondered the
matter be noticed that the walters,
who were staring at him oddly. were
all Irishnlen. Were the walters
aware Of his lack Of funds? His
luncheon seemed strangely long in
coming. But just then a waiter bent
over him and whispered
Il beg pardon. sir, but are you the
patriot Meagher?"
Now. Meagher. Labouchere knew.
had aided Smith O'Brien in his Irish
vising. had been deported to Australia
and had escaped thence to New York.
The ready young man. in answer to
the walters question. put his forefnger
upon his lip. Hush" be murmured.
And he looked around the room au-
tiously.
1t was at vonce felt that Labouchere
was the patriot Meagher. And SO the
choicest wines were set before him.
and. in place Of the modest chop he
had ordered. q luncheon Of nine or ten
elaborate courses vas brought on.
At the end. lighting one Of the estab-
lishment's finest cigars. Labouchere de-

Permit q brother patriot to shake you

And L~abouchere shook hands with
the proprietor and with the dozen
walters and stalked forth into the cold
world with the stern. sad. but indomi.
table look which 1t seemed to him that
an exiled patriot should wear.

The Best Iced Tea,

II you want tea with a delicious ia
vor make the following experiment:
Get half a pound of very fine tea and
add to it a dozen jasmine or orange
blossoms. Put this mixture in a per-
fectly tight jar away from the light
and do not open for a month. II you
cannot get the orange blossoms or jas
mine purchase some orange flower
water and soak your tea in enough OF
this water to cover 1t. In a few hours
1t will be ready to use.
To make the tea have the water hot,
pour it over the tea and allow to stand
at least twelve hours. Tea made In
this way has a beautiful favor and a
delicious perfumed flavor that can be
obtained in no other way. Try COM
bining it with orange sherbet- There
is no way of preparing iced tea that
can compare with this. After sweeten-
ing and when you are ready to serve
it place the sherbet in a bowl. pour
the cold tea over it and bring them to
the table together.

add comfort and beauty to any room
and u%ndeniably show thought for the
little things that contribute much to

For the porch. with its c%retonne COW
cred chairs and its plain rug. the
square pillow that spells practical

the thing. This is made Of denim. A
central band Of lowered cretonne is

down under braid to match the color
Of the denim. The back is plain. and
the edges are untrimmed. This on the

SAVING UNFORTUNATES.

Instead of running the unfortunates out of their city, as is to be done at Little Rock and some would have the officials do here, through Vice Com missions, the good people of Philadel phia have adopted another plan to lift fallen women and improve moral con- ditions in the Quaker City, A special from Philadelphia says:
 Definite steps toward the solution of the vice problem in this city were taken yesterday, when number of pointed to search out and care for un- fortunate women. Representatives of various charitable and social welfare societies are on the committees, which were appointed by the Court Aid So- ciety. The latter organization already has established home where women are provided with food and shelter un- til they are able to secure employ nlent..
 s....Miss Marion Gillette, secretary of the Oonpt, Aid Society, declared the percentage of women who wish to re- form is small, and drastic methods are necessary to induce them to give up their immoral life. She added that the plan of cooperative committees was the best Philadelphia has ever tried so far.
 "These committees will also work ill conjunction with the municipal auth critics"

It is desired that good books, and as many as possible, be given to the i- brary. The ladies hope to bring the library movement up to such a point where a library building can be secur- ed and there it will be made neces- sary.
 letter was addressed to Mrs. c. w. Pettigrew, secretary of the associa- tion, yesterday by Rabbi Joseph Jasin, In which he made a most liberal offer to the association. He informed the library official that if nine other citi- zens of this city donate $100 worth of standard books to the association he would do likewise. He says further that if six others donated S2OO worth each he will give books, aggregating the same cost.
 Let everybody take hold of the li- brary movement and aid in the good work. The city ought to have fine public library. It is stated that if this city will donate 5000 annually to maintain the library, the Carnegie Li- brary Commission will give $5O,0oO to Pine Bluff to be used in erecting a magnificent public library building

WILL PUT TELEPHONE
 WIRES UNDERGROUND,

Preparations are now being made by the Southwestern Telephone and Telegraph Company for the laying ol underground wires on Walnut street and much material is being placed on that thoroughfare for this work. l. is understood that the condui,s for the wires will be placed on Walnut street south of Ninth avenue to Eff teenth avenue, crossing the lake bed and Xtending south from Ninth ave- nue. It is said that it was first planned to follow the pavemen. on Olive street with the laying of the condui,s, but the citizens of that stree1 resisted these preparations to such an extent that it was decided to compromise and not go on that street The fact that the street was left in such bad condition when the pipes of the iPne Bluff Natural Gas Con- pany were laid is the reason the ef- forts to tear up the pavement to lay 9he conduits were resisted

THAT LOVING CUP INCIDENT

It is probably true as Teddy testit- ed, that he only took d sip of the mint julep in that loving cup at Little Rock. As the evidence develops it appears that he could Eot pull the cup loose from a certain Little Rock newspaper man.-TeXarkana TeXarkanian.
 There is some question as to thI identity of the newspaper man who did an Annette Kellerman to the bot tom of that loving cup when T. k. was ill Little Rock. The two men implicated are Fletcher Chenault. for merly of the Gazette staff and now secretary to the mayor of Little Rock, and Meyer Solmson of the Pine Bluff Graphic. Solmson says that Chenault touched bottom and Chcnault goes Solmson one better by saying that he went even deeper. The first thing Solmson said when they pulled him out to give him air was, "There is no sterling mark in the bottom Of this cup" As all of us know, the sterling mark is not on the inside.-Lttle Rock Gazette.
 Certainly. But how about that dia- mond ring that you bought when you became engaged. You know had 1t not been for the pawnbroker's instinct of the editor of the Graphic you would have been out several hundred dollars. You probably recall how the Graphic editor examined the diamond on your finger and after tasting it, pronounced it a chunk of alum instead cf genu-
 inc diamond. So you see it pays even for newspaper man to knoN some thing about the jewelry business, de- spite the fact that it is very seldom that he finds himself healed enough to invest in iewelry.

THE BRYAN VISIT
H. k. TONEY.

A special from Washington or re cent date tells of call that Secre tary of State w. J. Bryan made or, on Senator James P. Clarke, which goes to prove further that the senior senator from Arkansas, is coming in to his own; that Arkansas brains Is being recognized at Washington, and that this state has one of the biggest men in the national law making body.
 The Washington correspondent comments on the fact that 1t was nc; in the nature of usual demand from one of the biggest men in Washing ton Secretary Bryan-whO usually gives orders that. Senator So-and-So be requested to come to his office at q certain hour.'' The special says that Secretary Bryan's visit wae iaa.. 10 Senator Clarke in the senator s rriyafe office and that juss what transpired at the meeting was nol given out. Secretary Bryan is next to President Wilson ill rank. Senator Clarke is president pro tempore oi the Senate, an honor well conferred

and it is evident that he is some prominent in the official doings at the national capital.
 For some months it was known that Senator Clarke and Secretary Bryan were not on the best of terms politically. In recent years the senator has not felt kindly to the methods of Colonel Bryan in politics and he has never overlooked an op- portunity to let the public and Col onel Bryan know where he stood. At the Denver convention four years ago, when Colonel Bryan was nom- mated, Senator Clarke made speech one that overflowed with sincere Democratic sentiments. He did not spill oratory in lauding Mr. Bryan, but he was loyal enough to his party to stick to the party platform. In a private interview on the same day however, Senator Clarke told the Denver new spapeE men that MT. Bryan was not doing what was best for the Democratic party at that time. At Little Rock year ago Senator Clarke again had the courage to speak his convictions. He was hissed by coterie of Champ Clark supporters, but those who proved themselces so disloyal on that oc- casion, came to their senses at Balti- more, when they found themselves tied to political post that was cut down in a hurry when the Demo- crates nominated Governor Wilson.
 Senator Clarke does not play the game of politics as some of the poli- ticians in Arkansas play it. His acts are guided by what lie believes is right and usually he is pretty level headed when it comes to the welfare of the state at large.
 He has demonstrated that he is charitable and is always willing to forgive and forget differences ill poli- tics, despite the fact that he is known among his more intimate acquaint- ances in the senate as Tycoon Clarke. He commands the respect of his colleagues and his constituents because he has the courage Of his convictions.
 How many men would have wait cd for Secretary Bryan to call on them. Other senators have run over themselves in order to get in with the Commoner at Washington. But Senator Clarke would not surrender his principle and the big man at Washington-th Secretary of Statc--- came to him. He cannot but respect and admire the Arkansas senator. There are more reasons than one why Secretary Bryan called on Senator Clarke He is power at Washington and that is the principal reason.
