THE MANNING TIMES, APRIL q, 1919.

eleventh century, who looked deep into the tangled m&s
terry of things should be appropriate to this OCCASION
Cup from earth's center through the seventh gate,
rose and on the throne of Saturn safe,
And many knot unraveled by the road.
But not the Master Knot of Human Fate.
There was the door, to which found no key,
There was the veil, through which might not see,
Some little ia TX there was while of Me and Thee
And then no more of Thee and Me-
ssEarth could not answer, nor the seas that mourn
In flowing purple of their Lord forloru.
Nor rolling Heaven with all his signs revealed
And hidden by the sleeve OF night and morn.
For some me loved, the loveest and the best
That from his vintage rolling time hath pressed
Have drunk their cup, round or two BEFORE
And one by one crept silently to rest
$50 when the Angel of the darker drink
At last shall find you by the river brink
And offering his cup invite your soul forth to your lips
To quaf you shall not shrink.
'Why if the soul can flag the dust aside
Aud nakedon the air of Heaven ride
Were it not shame, were it not shame,
For him in this day carcass crippled to abide.
s'Tis but a tent where takes his one days rest,
Sultan to the realm of death addressed,
The Sultan rises and the dark Ferrash
Strikes and prepares it for another guest.
That youths sweet scented manuscript should close,
The nightingale that in the branches sang,
And whence and whittier flown again, who knows:
'Ah! Love- could you and with him conspire
To grasp this sorry scheme Of things entire,
Would not shatter it to bits
And then remould it nearer to the hearts desire?
lyon rising moon that looks for again,
How oft hereafter will she and wane,
How oft hereafter rising look for US
Through this Garden and for Louis Appet IN vain
"And when like her, O, Saki. you shall pass
Among the guest, star scattered on the grass:
And your joyous errant reach the spot
Where he one turned down an empty glass;
Mr.. CHRISTENSEN said:
rise with hesitation after you have hea I'd the elo
quent tributes Of the Senators who have spoken, but
find that cannot the pass without saying
word about .old seatrnate. You will remember that
Senator Appelt sat beside here for many years ALI
this season have missed cheerful morning greetng
and the loss of his companionshp has been felt from day
to day.
The late Senator Applet was hard worker and one
who felt that every matter deserved consideration There
were questions large and to small to be given
his careful attention He not to feel that he was
legslang for his county alone for those matters IN
which he was particularly interested His range of activ
tiles covered all issues that before the General
Assembly, He of those who stood for rigid
COMMITTEE he posted every item of the Appropri
alton Bill.
The Senator from Georgetown made use of the ex-
pression THAT he died the firing line That brings
to my recollection the fact that he appointed Senator Ap
pelt and myself special committee to report to this
session of the Legislature to reforms to be made IN
printing and that he took great deal of interest in the
preliminary work of this committee and looked forward
to reporting back you his recommendations He served
on that committee up to within few weeks of the time
of his DEATH and although he seemed to realize then that
the hand of sickness severely upon him. he was his
usual cheerful self all during the business Of the
committee.
It s of course, rte thing to say: but this occasion
necessarily brings minds keen realization OF the
uncertainties of life and impresses US with the feeling
that our time is all short to be wasted on personal
Misunderstanding; that in work done here on the
floor we should maintain did the late Senator Appet
a personal relationship, matter how much we may
differ as to the measures which come before u.s.
The resolution was unanimously adopted by a rising
vote of the Senate.
