4 y way.
little less ready to scold ami
blame;
A little more care for brothers name,
And so we are nearing the journeys end.
Where time and eternity meet and blend.
A little less care for bonds and gold;
A little more zest in the days Of old;
A broader view and a saner mind,
And a little more love for all mankind:
A little more careful Of what we say,
And so we are faring a-down the way.
little more love for the friends of
youth;
little less zeal for established truth;
little more charity in our views
little less thirst for the daily news;
And so we are folding our tents away
And passing in silence at close of day.
A little more leisure to sit and dream.
A little more real the things unseen;
A little bit nearer to those ahead,
With visions Of those long loved and dead;
And 80 we are going where all must go,
To the place the living may never know
little more laughter little more tears.
And we shall have told our increasing
years:
The book is closed and the prayers are
said.
And we are part Of the countless dead
Thrice happy. then, II some soul can s;
I live because he has passed my way

A PRAYER.

rs there flying thing
Fluttering with broken wing?
Lord. show us where It hides.
Lead US where'er abides,
Beneath pains sharpest fang.
The most forgotten pang.
Within thy world today.
For that. for that. we pray.
FOR the bird shot in the bog,
For the tortured. writhing dog:
The patient, iaboring least
That gives us most for least,
For the soul within the dumb,
And for that 1t may become.
For the smitten, by the way.
Oh. listen. Lord, we pray!

THE VOYAGERS.

WHEY listened to WOnOrOuS
music
In rooms that were plan
ned for kings
Beautiful notes from beauti-
full threats,
Sung as a songbird sings
They reveled in baths of marble
Like the baths of ancient Rome.
Twas a wondrous trip on q Won
drous ship
The ship that never came home.
Music and baths and splendor!
But where are the noble men
Saying goodbys with glistenlng eyes
That never shall glisten again2
They ca Led Il floating palace,
And they found it funeral urn,
Crowded by Fate with hero freight
The ship that can never return.

SUMMER BOARDERS
EDDYTORIUL

Two parties named Mr.. s. Mrs.
H. M. Sterling from the city

right back that he and his wife
would do so and a few days ago
Mr.. & Mrs. Sterling arrived bag
and baggage and are now stopping
at Ephs who they pay So. per wk
each (making a grand total of SIG
for both) for board and room. AS
result Ephs gittin rich hand over
fist and hopes Mr.. & Mrs. Sterling
will remain all summer and all next
winter too for that matter.
Eph says they're awful nice folks
but turrib1e partickler about some
things for instants :-Eph says they
wont warsh their faces out at the
pump in the front yard in the NOR
nings like he does hisse1f and don't

As a result of this Eph had tc
make speshial trip to the co seal
and lay in warshbowl & picher
also some nice smelly sope for his
gests. He also says that they like
their eggs soft billed for breakfast
whereas the harder his eggs is
billed the better he likes EN-.
In spite of this however Eph says
they're turrible profitable being as
at SIS. per each per wk he calkilates
he makes a profit of about $14 OF
SIS on both. The consequence is
that all Eplls nabers is jealous oil
him gittin rich beyond the fondest
dreams of avarice in this manner
and some of EN- are even advertiser
in the Bugle in the hope of gettir
few summer boarders theirselfs
(See advertising collum in this is
hue.)

Births

You have probly notised that Bing-
vile amt added emmy to her popula-
shion for quite spell back In other
words the population of this town has
been practically at standstill as we
might say and something ort to be did
about it
We amt said mulch about this mat
ter of late becuz we've been ashamed
to mentshion it. Take the town of
Hardscrabble for instints Last wk' s
Hardscrabble Banner reported four
births in the period of seven days
whereas we have investigated here
abouts and all we can find in the way
of birth in Bingvil1e during the past
wk was calf horned to Cy Winslow's
old spotted COW.
Are we agoing to stand idly BY and
let our rival town of Hardscrabble git
ahead of us on populashion in this man
ner or are we not, we ask What is
it makes populasfion? Why it's babies
that makes it-enny blamed fool ort to
know that. Well, amt we got emmy
pride in trying to make Bingvi1le one
of the metropolisses of this nashion !?
Well newer be metropolis unless we
have more births in the fuchure than
we have in the past that's one shure
thing
In conferents which we had with
Doc Livermore our huming spesf1ialist
& horse veterinary Doc told US very
confidenchial that he knowd of several
prospective births in our midst but of
course it wouldn't be good form to say
ennythink more about this at the pres
ent writing. All we can do is to wait
and hope.
In conclooshion we desire to say that
we hope we shant haft to speak about
this matter agin.

Supreme Court Sustains Lower Tr- bunal in Awarding Damages To Section Foreman From
 Arizona Eastern

The supreme court yesterday handed down an opinion in the case of the Arizona Eastern appellant against W. N. Bryan appellee from this county, sustaining the court below where the appellee was given a verdict and iudg- ment for damages in the sum of $l0.- coo. The apellee was a section for man in the employ of the appellant. He was riding one day on a push car in advance of a hand car which furnished the motive power for the push car. One of the section men on the hand car gave the push car a kick which threw tEe appellee off and he was run over hy the hand car and seriously injured
 TEc appeal was taken on various grounds: that the jury had been i'm properly instructed: that improper evi- dence had been admitted and it was contended that the emplONe who had kicked the push car resulting in the injury to the forman did not commit that act in the course of the per formance of his duties The supreme court held that this view of the matter was an absurdity and that as to the improper evidence of which complaint had been made and as to the instruc- tions that had been given by the lower court. the case the appellant had not been materially affected.

C0[D, THRILLS

Excitement Attends Pro- gress of American Clean up In Mexico; Sabra Made Chief Interpreter of Pershing's Forces
By John Sabra)

COLUMBUS, N. Nj. April 13.-The weather has changed considerably anC it is very cold here. In fact it is so cold that 1 can hardly write. There has been quite q bit of excitement here the past few days. The Tenth CaVal- ry brought in two machine guns and nine MeXicans picked up along the lire of communication. It is thought that they were getting ready 70 take q few pot shots at the truck trains.
 l have been appointed chief inter pre ter al Casa Grandes, and will leave for there in q day or so. Through conserVatiOnS with different MeXicans am very sure that the story of Villa death is a hoax. One of them told me that he mad purposoly arranged the story and that eventually he plan ned to have q dead body worked off on the American military authorities as his own.
 One Of the wagon trains was fired Ipon yesterday, but no casualties re- suited There have been many rumors of another attack on Columbus bTt think it is highly improbable Things continue as busy here as in the past few weeks, and each day witnesses the start of d seemingly never ending train of trucks to the interior
