Methinks, when on the languid eye
Lies Autumn scenes grow dim
When evenings shadows veil the sky
And pleasures siren hymn
Grows fainter on the tuneless ear,
Like echoes from another sphere,
Or dream OF seraphim
II were net sad TO cast away
This dull and cumbrous load OF clay.
II were not sad to feel the heart
Grow passionless and cold;
To feel those long!ngs TO depart
That cheer'd the good OF old
To clasp the faith which looks ur
high,
Which fires the Christians dying
eye.
And makes the curtain-fold,
That falls upon his wasting breast.
The door that leads to endless rest.

On that triumphant bed
TIL the pure spirit mounts on high.

Who're sin and grief can sting 10

And. though the way to such a goal
Lies through the clouded tomb,

There rest no stains of gloom,

ANHUT SENTENCED
TO PENITENTIARY

NEW YORK. May 23-John NJ
Anhut, the lawyer. who was con-
victed of offering a $4,000 bribe to
DR.. John W. Russell. former superin-
tendent of the Mattewan asylum in an
effort 10 get Harry Thaw free, was
sentenced by Justice Seabury in the
criminal branch OF the Supreme court
today to from two to four years in
prison. about half the maximum pen
atty.
Anhut heard his sentence without a
show of emotion. Justice Seabury
granted a stay for ten days to give
time for an application for a certi-
f1cate of reasonable doubt that Arthur
c. Palmer Anhuts counsel is to make
the basis OF an appeal. Before his
client was sentenced Mr. Palmer
moved for q stay OF sentence and a
new trial. which was denied. Justice
Seabury said:
Il have no doubt about the verdict.
Had entertained any doubt / would
not have gwen the case to the jury

DRAW ORDINANCE
TO ABATE SMOKE

DIR. E. c. Levy, city health officer,
who has been collecting material and
data for the preparation of an ordi-
nance to abate the smoke nuisance,
notified the administrative board yes
terday that he had not sufficient time
to give to the many complicated points
involved in the matter, though all the
data has been assembled. He sug-
gested that he be permitted to sub
NIT to the board all the data in hand
so that 1t may get to work on the ordi-
nance without further delay. The
suggestion was acceptable.
City Engineer Boiling was directed
to continue to purchase ice for the
parks. After July LIST this will be
done by the building inspector. Last
summer the city bought about 10000
pounds of ice for this purpose, at the
rate of thirty-five cents hundred.
superintendent Cohn. of the street
cleaning department., was directed to
clean up the premises of the city
crematory and dog pound at once. the
board having found them in very bad
condition when it inspected them a
day or two ago.

NEW YORK, May 23.-Through
Justice Seabury's leniency. Dorothy
Dale, once of the Tenderloin, more
recently of the Tombs. can hence
forth choose her own cream puffs
and chocolate caramels unless she
gets into trouble again. In the SUI
preme court today Justice Seabury
suspended sentence after Miss Dale

charge Of petty larceny
Ever since Miss Dale was thrust
into the Tomhs on October Sth last.

stealing n gold mesh bag studded with
jewelry from Mrs Louise Morrogh, Of
1874 West Fifty-seventh street, the
considerably known Poillon sisters.
one of whom was responsible for her
arrest, have been daily visitors to her
cell AS peace offerings they brought
cream puffs and chocolates, the prts-
oner's favorite dainties.
Miss Dale had been indicted for
grand larceny. Justice Seabury an
nounced that on account of letters he
had received and certain mitigating
circumstances he would suspend SEN
tence. The pretty twenty-year-old
prisoner gave a sob and tainted. She
was carried out and revived.
