forgot as joy earessed me
dying joy! that caught and pressed me
In the arms of doomD
Only spake the little whisper
In the angel-tongue,
Yet 1 listening. heard her whisper,
Songs are only sung
Here below that they may grieve you
Tales but told to deceive you
So must Leonainie leave you
While her love is young.
Then God smiled and it was morning,
Matchless and supreme;
Heavens glory seemed adorning
Earth with its esteem;
Every heart but mine seemed gifted
With the voice of prayer, and lifted
Where my Leonainie drifted
From me like a dream.
From a fac-simile of few lines of a
Poe manuscript Samuel. Richards, an
artist friend of Riley, copied the poem
in pale ink on the fyleaf of an old
Ainsworth Latin-English dictionary

his own paper he analyzed the poem
and pointed out phrases. etc, which, as
he said, showed that it was improb

only provoked the editor of the rival
paper in Anderson to more earnest
championship of it's authenticity.
The story of the literary find went
all over the country, to the leading
newspa pers and magazines. Article

literary critics accepted it as genuine.

MUNICIPAL PENSIONS.
Philadelphia City Employees Pension
ed After 20 Years.

Philadelphia, July 26-Under the pro-
visions of an act passed by the legisla-
ture, which Governor Terer has aprov-
ed, this city is given authority to es-
tablish a municipal pension fund for
employees. The act applies to all city
employees who have given 20 years of
service to the city.
While the act provides that the city
may set aside for the purpose one-haf
of 1 per cent of all taxes collected, the
provision is not mandatory, and coun-
ellis must pass an ordinance creating
the municipal pension fund before it
shall be operative.
The act provides that in the event
of the creation of the fund, every en-
ployee will be compelled to pay into
the fund 1 per cent of his yearly sal
airy.
The pension to be allowed the bene-
ficiary will be equal to one-half of av-
erage yearly salary received by him
during the last two years before his
retirement.

BOY DIES IN WELL.
Cyrus and Ray Hall Asphyxiated-
One Dies Trying to Save Other.

Fredonia, July ga double trag-
edy occurred at the NJ. F. Hall farm
two miles east of Buxton, when Ray
Hall, aged twenty-three, and Cyrus,
aged sixteen, succumbed to gases fol-
lowing an explosion of dynamite in a
well.
Several shots of the explosive were
fired in the effort to deepen the we'll,
which was already about twenty-five
feet deep. The brothers, not think
ing that the gases generated by the
explosion might not have escaped,
prepared to continue their work on
the excavation. Cyrus went down
first and became affected by the dead
ly gases. He attempted to climb out
and almost succeeded, his father
reaching down and trying to pull the
boy out of the hole after he had pain
fully climed to the top of a ladder in
the cavity. But Cyrus was overcome
before he could reach safety and fell
back. His brother Ray heroically de-
scended into the pit and tried to res
cue the lad but he too was a victim
of the poisonous fumes. NJ F. Hall,
the father, aged and feeble, ran a
quarter of mile and managed to tell
another son, Roy, of the danger to the
boys. Roy tied rope around his
waist and went into the we'll. He, too,
was almost suffocated, but managed
to tie the bodies of his brothers and
his own to the rope. All three were
dragged out. Roy was near death
when removed from the pit, but re-
vived and will recover. The other two
young men were dead before aid could
be- brought

MONOCLE INTERFERES.
Englishman Loses Chance to "Make
a Man of Himself

ST. Louis, Mo-, July 26.-An
"Hinglish' monocle, 'Doncherknow,
has rudely shattered the dreams of
DR.. Otto Gordon Goldfeld of Germany,
of his father, vice president of the
corporation of Hamburg, and of a
beautiful European chorus girl. whose
identity shall remain secret until
her hero's dream has been rebuilt
and realized.
Dr. Goldfeld, a self confessed lover,
spendthrift and temporarily disinher-
tied son, recently came to the United
States with the sole intention of join
ing our army. He wanted to forget
the pretty chorus girl, the bright
lights of Monte Carlo, and the mem
DRY of the $4,000 he lavished on his
queen in one year.
Three years in the American army,
GoIdfeld, his father, and the girl de-
cided would make a man of him. He
would then return to his wealthy
Germany home, be re-inherited and
would marry the girl. Goldfeld en-
listed and was assigned to Jefferson
barracks in ST. Louis.
He arrived with monocle in front
of his right eye, with cane hanging
on his left forearm, and all other
sigma of the European dandy. HIS
physique was apolloesque. He could
ride, hurdle and swim.
But-he wore a monocle and could
not see, at least not perfectly The
strain caused by it's constant use has
made him unfit for the United states
army. So the local examining officer
decided yesterday, and SO was the
