He asked for gold,
And the world poured
into his hands such riches manifold
He wearied of the hoard,
1t made achievement slight
And cheap all gain;
Where once he took a wild delight
He knew but pain.
He asked for love,
And his blood leaped
In ecstasy; his soul was swept above
The stars, in passion STEPPED.
Yet bitter was his heart
When once ne learned
The cruel anguish of the smart
Where love is spurned.
He asked for fame,
And soon men spoke
With awe and wonder of him, and his
name
Rang like the hammers stroke.
But in the echoing thrill
He caught one tone
That smote him with the warning
chill
or death alone.
Humbly he then
Went forth to ask
That he might walk among his fell
lowmen
And take some useful task,
Amazed, he saw the years
Stretch in their plan.
He knew the meaning of life's tears
And woke, man. VOGUE.

after the filing of the proceedings and
not later than ten, and the hearing
shall he had not later than twenty
days from the time OF the filing of the

in it's nature and will be heard with
out jury. The attorney general or a
lawyer delegated by him is the proper
person to prosecute the case.
In an impeachment proceeding in
which. the defendant is indicted by the
grand jury a trial may be had.
Since the fling OF the cast there has
been considerable speculation as to
who will try IL. The defendant has the
right to ask for change from the
Judge in whose court the case Is filed.
1t is thought that none of the other
judges In the county would want to
try the case Il Patterson should ask
for a change and it would then fall to
the lot of Judge McMahan to appoint a
special Judge.
Attorney Patterson's term does not
expire until q year from next January.

WANT RAILROAD OPENED

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver, Apr. 29.-There has been
filed with the state railroad commits
sion complaint from the citizens of
Canon City and Florence asking that
the Florence & Cripple Creek rail-
road be compelled to reopen its line
between Florence and Cripple Creek.
About year ago or miles of
track in Four Mile canon were en-
tirely washed out by heay floods and
since that time no trains have been
run over the line between the two
towns.
The citizens state that they have
been damaged in the way of business
because of the suspension of opera
ton, and ask the commission to force
the re-opening of the line. The mat
ter will soon be taken up and acted
upon by the commission.
The case is similar to that wherein

suits of the towns capture by the

The refugees explain that the reb-
