WHEN MY SHIP COMES IN.

Z BY RdSg9 ROE 99edsss.
Somewhere, out on the blue sea sail
ing,
Where the winds dance and spin;
Beyond the reach OF my eager hailing,
Over the breakers din;
Out where the dark storm.clouds are
lifting.
Out where the binding fog is drifting,
Out where the treacherous sand is
shifting,
My ship is coming in.
o, have watched till my eyes were
aching,
Day after weary day:
o, ! have hoped till my heart was
breaking
While the long nights cbbed away;
Could but know where the waves
had tossed her,
Could but know what storms had
crossed her,
Could but know where the winds had
lost her,
Out in the twilight gray!
But though the storms her course have
altered,
Surely the port she'll win,
Never my faith in my ship has fall
tered,
know she is coming In.
For through the restless ways of her
roaming.
Through the mad rush Of the wild
waves foaming,
Through the white crest OF the bill.
lows combing.
My ship is coming in.
Breasting the tides where the gulls are
flying,
Swiftly she's coming in;
Shadows and deeps and rocks defy,
ing,
Bravely she's coming in.
Precious the load she will bring to
bless me,
Snowy the arms she will bring to car,
ess me.
In the proud purple of kings she will
dress me
My ship that is coming in.

Before one Of the largest crowds
ever gathered In q Squire's court IN
this city, the case of the State VS..
William Madden and Lucy Martin Is
being heard in Squire r. Leigh Flem-
ing's Office.
Starting at 3 O'Clock, 4 lrse crowd
began to gather, which steadily grew
until every available foot Of space in
the room was occupied.
The woman, Lucy Martin, waived
her hearing, while William Madden,
through his attorney, Frank Hayden,
announced that he was ready for trial.
William Harrison Lake, the man who
made the complaint against the cou'
pie, charging that they secured $50
from him in an Illegal manner, was
put on the stand, and Lis story re-
quired quite a length of time for the
telling. The case has not as yet been
decided.
The case had some very interesting
testimony, and a very large crowd OF
the curious gathered to hear 1t. All
boys under II years of age were Ca
cluded from the room at the begin.

OIL AND GAS

Eastern oil producers were agree
ably surprised yesterday morning with
another advance in the fredit balance
market. When the Se9D Purchasing
agency opened for business an adj
vance of five cents for all eastern
grades, except Ragland was posted
II was thought when the market
reached $500 it might hang at that
figure for some time. The last adj
vance was made December IA, when
It reached the two dollar mark. Inc
new quotations are: Pennsylvania
sos; Mercer (black), New Castle anu
Corning, $1.5S, and Cabell, S1.65
There were thirteen fve-cent ad
yances in the price of Pennsylvania
credit balances last year. Since Dee
26. 1911, there have been II advances
in the credit balance market, aggres2s
ing IL cents, or nearly IS per cent
During that period there has been a
continuous drain on the stocks, and
the same condition prevails at this
time and is likely to continue unless
some new prolific producing territory
is discovered in the near future. II
is not at all surprising that a revival
Of development work is general in all
sections. Operators are not likely to
