THERE IS EVER A SONG SOMEWHERE

James Whitcomb Riley
There is ever song somewhere, my dear;
There is ever something sung Away;
There's the song of the lark when the skies
are clear,
And the song of the thrush when the skies
are gray.
The sunshines showers across the grain,
And the bluebird trills in the orchard tree;
And in and out, when the caves drip rain,
The swallows are twittering ceaselessly
There is ever song somewhere, my dear,
Be the skies above or dark or fair,
There is ever a song that our hearts may hear:
There is song somewhere, my dear
There is ever song somewhere!
There is a song somewhere, my dear,
In the midnight black, or the midday bue
The robin pipes when the sun is here,
And the cricket chirrups the whole night thru;
The buds may blow and the fruit may grow
And the autumn leaves crisp and scar;
But whether the sun, or the rain, or the
snow,
There is ever song somewhere, my dear.
There is ever song somewhere, my dear,
Be the skies above of dark or fair,
There is ever a song that your hearts may
There is ever song somewhere my dear
There is ever song somewhere!

learned are familiar, can but call our readers
attention to this article which appears on the first
page of this ISSUE The article speaks for itself;
and the thoughts set forth are greater than any

The next number on the program was
selection by the orchestra entitled: Morning, Noon
and Night in Vienna" which brought forth great
applause. Ill
Mr.. H., came next on the program and read
his paper on, Russia and Its People," He pre-
sented his subject in the same decisive, compre-
hensive and eloquent manner as did all the other
speakers. His comparisons were made in a thoro
statement of fact-manner which permits of no
criticism REPUTATION; and he deserves the thanks
of the entire Circle for the time and study he
devoted to this interesting paper. After the read
ing of this paper, the president Mr.. Pendennis,'
addressed the assemblege and thanked them for their
attendance, saying in part: Visiting friends, on
behalf of the members of the Circle, wish to
thank you for your attendance at this meeting, as

to press forward as never before; it gives US
brighter hopes to continue in our endeavor, and l
hope you will always continue to be present at all

other business to attend to the meeting was
adjourned; and the orchestra then struck up
lively march while the three hundred more
visitors filed out of the auditorium.

ways added interest to these meetings. But it was
thought by the president and bis secretary and
fellow members that change to absolute home
talent ought to have it's turn. In view of the fact
the last quarterly program that of home talent,
and it was decided success 1t turned out to be
more of success than the president or fellow
members had previously anticipated. The pre-
sident deserves hearty commentator and thanks
for the excellent program; for it was through his
untiring efforts that the splendid program was
possible Also, we would be an ungratful person
if we forgot to thank each and every member who
contributed to the successful program.

RAFT, SPILLS LOGS
Three Men Almost Hurled Into
River in Collision i'm
Midstream.

The U. S. dredgeboat known as No.
5. crashed into raft of logs belonging
to the Cape Cooperage Company OF
this city, between Wittenberg and
Grand Tower, yesterday afternoon
tearing the raft into three parts, and
almost hurting the three occupants
into the river.
The raft was carrying $50 logs
quite a number of which were forced
into the river Some of these were
towed in to land and anchored, but
others drifted away. What could be
handled on the dismantled raft, were
brought to this city early last night.
The raft was in charge of Henry
Buckner, Luther Little and his brother,
John. When the boat sighted the raft,
it signaled with two sharp whistles,
warning the raft to remain close to
the Missouri side. The raft misun-
derstood the signal, blew its siren
twice, but kept its course. When
the mistake had been discovered, it
was too late to avoid a collision and
the dredge rammed the frame load of
logs.
Buckner and his two mates, by
heroic measures managed to keep their
positions on the logs, but the rolling
of the logs, caused by the shattering
of the raft, made their positions pre-
carious. The dredge boat steamed up
beside the raft to lend assistance, and
aided in towing some of the liberated
logs to the bank.
Mr. Buckner landed his cargo short
~ before o'clock last night. In re-
lating the story of his experience, he
stated that his raft was almost in mid
stream when the accident occurred. He
said the dredge boat was not damaged
by the impact.

EOGEL AND WHITMORE SET
4 NEW TEN-PIN RECORD
In Three Game Series, WhitmOre
Scores Gil and Vogel $50
Whitmore Makes 230 on
Last Game.

Last Game.
Had either Louis Whitmore or Ar
thur Nogel been playing at ten-pins
last night in Omaha instead of in the
Cape and had they been entered in the
Western Bowling tournament, they
probably would have won either a $50
of 500 prize.
Whitmore broke the record in the
Cape by bowling a score of Gil in
three games and Vogcl was close
second with 5S5. The contest between
the two men was witnessed by good
sized crowd and as it proceeded the
excitement was at fever pitch.
The exhibition of bowling that both
Vogcl and Whitmorc put up was I'M
paralleled in the Cape. IN the first
game, Vogcl took the lead with 1S6 to
Whitmore's 164. Vogel held the lead
when he rolled 215 in the second game
against Whitmore's 217.
In the third game, Whitmorc rolled
a score of $50 and VoSol fell to 1S4.
The total combined scores the two men
was 1196.
The match between the two men was
started as a result of friendly rivalry
between them and heated discussion
as to which could win which resulted
in the series
