In loving remembrance of our mother,

In that lonely Cedar Neck Cemetery
Where the trees their branches wave
Lies our dear mother in that

Tears of sorrow silently flow,
For memory keeps our mother near us
Though heaven claimed her nine years ago
Roses may wither;
Leaves fade and die;
Others may forget her,
But never shall |.

JAPANESE PREMIERSHIP
HANGS IN THE BALANCE
Count Okuma Confers Twice With
Emperor Regarding Crisis
in Cabinet.

TOXIC, July 31.-Premier Count Ok
una was summoned twice to the Impe-
rial Palace today to confer with En-
peror Yoshihtto regarding the cabinet
crisis which has arisen from the inves'
tigation by the ministry of Justice into
the bribery charges growing out of the
parliamentary election of March which,
1t Is alleged, involved Viscount Oura,
the minister of the interior in the Jap
anese cabinet.
The minister Of the interior retired
July 20 and by this action the resigna-
ton of the entire Okuma cabinet was
precipitated on the following day.
Up to late hour tonight no decision
had been reached as to who should as
sumo the premiership. Ex-Premier
Marquis Matsukata favors the retention
in office Of Count Okuma.
Attacks Cabinet as Corrupt.
The opposition press attacks the cabinet
calling 1t corrupt, Notwithstanding its
boast that it was based on constitutional
ideals These newspapers, however, say
there is cause for rejoicing in the fact
that the investigation into the bribery
charges was conducted with persistence
as 1t proves the Independence of the
judiciary.

Principals in Custer Proceedings
Shake Hands and Discuss Street

Commissioner Oliver P. Newman and
W. j. Frizzell. the man who led the
homo rule committees long and unsuc-
cessful fight to GUST Mr.. Newman from
office were the principals in a peace
meeting. at the District building today.
Defendant and complainant in the re-
cent commissionership custer proceed
ings ran into each other Unexpectedly,
shook hands and chatted for quarter
of an hour. The conference broke up
with Mr.. Frizzell requesting Mr.. New
mans aid in street improvement mat
ter, and the latter agreeing to help his
erstwhile prosecutor.
Mr.. Frizzell was waiting to sec As
sistant Engineer Commissioner Ander-
son when Commissioner Newman
emerged from the latter's Office
How are you?" said the Commission
er advancing with outstretched hand.
Half rising from his seat Mr.. FriZzell
returned the greeting.
You are looking WELL" remarked Mr..
Newman.
And SO are you. Let me see-I don't
believe L quito place you" came the
answer.
MY name is Newman"
commissioner Newman
Yes, sir"
The home rule committee leader
quickly mastered his embarrassment
over failure to recognize the District
official, and Immediately assured Mr..
Newman that there had been no per-
sonal animosity back of the custer
proceedings. He was assured in return
that his position in the matter was
fully understood.
For several minutes the custer case
and District matters were discussed.
Assistant Engineer Commissioner An
derson's secretary, Robert Bradshaw,
and a few other District employees who
ventured into the office about this
time were perceptibly astonished by
the good-natured conversation between
the Commissioner and the man who
has branded him as a usurper.
Mr. Frizzell said that he was in the
District building to see about having
a street gutter improved. and sug-
gested that Mr.. Newman could help him
in the matter Mr.. Newman listened to
the complaint, and said he would give
it his personal attention.

NEWS DEPREssEs PRESIDENT.
Officially Informed Of Killing Of
u. S. Sailors BY Haitians,

CORNISH. N. H.. July s1-The killing
Of two American bluejackets by natives
at Port au Prince Haiti. was reported
officially to President Wilson as soon
as he got up today. He expressed con-
Germ and directed that all Information
obtainable be forwarded to him from
Washington.
In answer to questions concerning
the Haitian situation the President said
he knew no more than the public gen.
orally, and that he could add nothing
to the facts already published. He said
he was keeping in close touch with
developments.
The killing Of the American sailors
had a depressing effect on the Presi-
dent. He received only a brief outline
Of the messages received from Rear
Admiral Caperton, commanding the
American landing party at Port au
Prince. He probably will find some
way later of showing his appreciation
of the work of the two men killed.

Flow of a River.
ON the New York Telegram.

From the New 10TH 1cltSEdm
If you see a man leaning over the
railing of a bridge intently watching
the river, with a telephone receiver
at his ear, do not think that the man
is trying to talk to the fishes or to L
diver below the surface.
He is probably one of the govern
ments engineers measuring the amount
of water passing under the bridge.
This is done by lowering an instrument,
known as a current meter, into the
water at several points under the
bridge to determine the speed of the
water and by measuring the depth OF
the water at the same points.
From such Information the flow OF
the river at that particular time and
height can be computed, and when
such measurements have been made
at a number of different heights the
flow of the stream at any height can
be determined.
Then If a record of the height Of the
river Is obtained each day from q river
gauge the dow for each day can be
computed

the Russian people and the hope that
Grand Duke Nicholas, commander-in-
chief of the Russian forces, will be

For the English and French critical

'The whole heart Of this nation goes

Fsom the Haverhill Gazette.

1t has been observed that while VIA
sfe trying to do something for tho
child who is overworked. we need to
remember the other danger of over
play. Parents and teachers too often
fail to realize te injury that may come
through the exciting stimulation of
games carried to excess.
Most children need to be restrained
now and then in the matter of ex-
hausting exercise. The lesson of SUI
fcient rest il one of the hardest which
grown-ups have to learn. It IL not
surprising that children do not know
how to observe 1t.
Yet many cases Of nerves and trri :
liability could be traced directly to the
fact that a child has been allowed to
run from morning till night with no
relaxation at a time when the de-
mands Of youth make rest especially
needful. 1t 10 better to insist upon
plenty Of sleep and quiet than to pun
