POETRY
WAITING.

Serene, I fold my hands and wait, Nor care for wind, or tide, or seas rave no more 'gainst time or fate, For 10! my own shall come to me. stay my haste, I make delays, For what avails this eager pace? I stand amid the eternal ways, And what is mine shall know my
 face.
 Asleep. awake, by night or day, The friends I seek are seeking me; No wind can drive my bark astray, Nor change the tides of destiny. What matter if I stand alone? I wait with joy the coming years; My heart shall reap where it has soWn, And garner up it's fruit of tears. The waters know their own and draw The brook that springs in wonder
 height;
 So flows. the good with equal law Unto the soul of pure delight The stars come nightly to the sky; The tidal wave Ento the sea; Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high, Can keep my own away from me

Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, July 3.-A tremendous
explosion, believed to have been
caused by some kind of bomb or infer
nal mechine, wrecked the public re-
ception room on the east side of the
Capitol building shortly before mid
night Friday night.
No one was injured. First reports
of the effects of the explosion said
had been blown out; that an immense
plate glass mirror had been demor-
ished and that part of the ceiling and
walls were torn down. The explosion
was heard for several blocks.
At the time of the explosion the
Capitol had been closed since dark
and no one was in the building except
the few watchmen on duty and tele-
phone operators.
The watchman in the hall directly
below the reception room said he was
almost blown from his chair by the
force of the blast. He declared that
no one could have been near the room
for hours.
Officials believe that the explosive
was placed by crank who desired to
create sensation. Visitors were al
lowed in the room during the day. and
a timed machine might have been left
without attracting attention.
Superintendent Woods of the capitol
building. summoned by panic-stricken
watchmen, made a hurried investiga-
ton. then telephoned for an expert on
explosives. Untilt the expert has made
his report, no official statement con-
corning the incident will be made pub
lie.
No trace could be found of an ex-
which might have caused the blast.
