"when through all the woodland passes
Wave tie tall, seed Laden grasses
In the Weakened wind that whispers
Vaguely Of the ming rain,
When the golden.r0d and aster
Lift their gorgeous heads, and faster
Fly the ripened leaves Of summer
Far across the stubbly plain,
When the RANT, Haunting weeds
Scatter downy, ghostly seeds,
White AZ ash on dying ember,
That's September.
"when the mellow fruit is dropping;
When the soft.eyed kline are cropping,
Where the harvest late was gathered,
OF the plenteous aftermath;
When we hear the constant patter
OF ripe nuts. and squirrels chatter
To each other as they skurry
Up and down each forest path;
When we gaze on mist.clad hills,
While we hear the shallow rills.
Faint as dream we half remember,
That's September"

Here and There.

A law passed by the legislature last
winter provides for the employment of a
patrOlman on the road in every town
which has any state aid road, to care for
that improved road and as much unim.
proved road in addition as the road su-
thorities shall decide. Although the law
went into effect in July, IL will not go
into operation this year, as announced
by the state highway commission, be-
cause most of the towns had made their
appropriations before the law went into
effect or even before ii was passed, and
will go into operation.
That not unusual nor unexplainable
error of relating that man has been
"hauled into court" when the correct
word is hailed, had a variation recently
when it was announced that certain man
had been "halted into court"
In an Illinois court the other day less
than six hours was occupied with the
entire proceedings IN the case of Negro
charged with murder, from the indict-
ment TO the sentence of death. Notwith
standing this remarkable promptness.
crowds besieged the court room and
threatened mob violence, being restrained
only by the presence of three companies
of militia. Which would seem to indicate
that the people in the mob were not so
anxious to see justice administered by
legal means as they were to have hand
themselves in administering it illegally.
A loss which in one sense is irreparabe
is the burning OF the picturesque and
historic old Tip-Top House on Mount
Washington, on Sunday, Aug. 80 For
sixty two years il has stood, part of the
time in active service, and part of the
time merely one of the curious sights of
the mountains, and its associations can
not be restored. But il is pleasing to
read that the officers of the Mount Wash
ington Railway plan to restore the build
ing as nearly as possible TO its original APP
pesrance. The suggestion that it may be
fitted for the use of trampers will also be
pleasing to great many people, as that
would be the one thing now needful to
enable trampers to see the mountains in
the "only" way with comfort, economy,
and comparative ease.
OF course we must "pre pare"-for
defence dtrictly-with considerable in
crease in our military establishment.
Only very independent people now ven-
ture to say that such program is not
necessary. But there is one puzzle about
the affair that strangely enough has
received no attention. What are we 60
ing to do to guard that four-thousand-
mile boundary between the United States
and Canada, which fool treaty has left
absolutely unfortified? Our longest
boundary line, too. With all the sugges-
tions of necessary defences, no one has
anything to say about that. Indeed,
many seem to take pride in the fact that
the border is free from military show. |
And one paper is so wild as to suggest that |
perhaps II the border line between two
Of the powers Of Europe bad been left In |
the same condition, that continent would
not now be drenched in blood. Absurd,
Of course!
