AlwaY Something Sings

Let me go where'er / will,
hear u sky.born music still:
It sounds from all things young,
From all that's fair. from all that's foul
Peals out cheerful song.
II is not only in the rose,
1t is not only in the bird,
Not only where the rainbow glows.
Nor in the song of woman heard.
But in the darkest, meanest things
There alway, alway something sings
'Tis not in the high stars alone,
Not in the cup of budding flowers.
Nor in the redbreast's mellow tone,
Nor In tho bow that smiles in showers,
But in the mud and scum Of things
There alway, alway something sings.
Ralph Waldo Emerson.

MEN WILL BE KEPT
IN STATE CAMPS
No Official Explanation Has
Been Given, but the Deli
cacy of the Railroad Strike
Situation Is Said to Have
Been a Moving Considera-
ton in the Case

San Antonio, Tex, Aug. l5,-The or
der for the remainder of the country's
militia, about $4,000 men. to proceed to
the border has been revoked according to
announcement at the southern depart
ment headquarters to-day. The war de-
partment notified headquarters that the
troops would continue to be held in state
mobilization camps.
No official explanation is made, but it
is known that the delicacy of the rail
road strike situation has been moving
consideration.
The suspension ordered prevents the
immediate movement of troops from Yer
mont, Kentucky and Ohio. Some of the
Vermont troops were ready to go. The
suspension is not revocation Of the or
der. If the strike situation clears, the
troops will be moved TO the border.
There is a possibility that some of the
troops, in the event of strike, might
be called upon TO guard or operate mail
trains and trains supplying troops al
ready on the border.

Samuel Gompers Of the American Fed

brows," said Senator Sherman Mr.,
Gompers is a public nuisance"
Referring to the indianapolis and Los
Angeles dynamite trials Senator Sherman
declared the federation president had
"prostituted the cause OF labor by using
funds of laboring men for the defense Of
these criminals
Mr.. Gompers never apologized to any
body" he continued But it was the
most fortunate thing that ever happened
to Mr.. Gompers that he himself escaped
Indictment on these same charges.

ROBBED BY AUTOISTS
Maine Man Met with Reverse of the
Usual Order

Brunswick, Me-, Aug. l5.--Chief of Po-
lice Stetson was notified last night that
a man and woman who were travelling
by automobile had held up Isaac Henry
Snow, well known fish warden, and
robbed him of $50, which Mr.. Snow later
recovered.
Mr.. Snow was standing on the corner
OF Harpswell and Bath streets, waiting
for an electric car when an automobile
stopped in front of him and the man and
woman got out and began asking ques-
tions regarding the road to Orrs island
The man suddenly stepped behind Mr..
Snow and pinned both his arms behind
his back. while the woman went through
his pockets and removed his wallet CON
tanning the money. Mr.. Snow struggled
with the man and after wrenching him
self clear struck him a blow in the face
which felled him TO the ground. Before
he could get to his feet Mr.. snow ran
after the woman who had reached the
automobile and succeeded in rescuing his
money. Mr.. Snow did not stop to secure
the number OF the automobile and good
description Of the couple, being satisfied
to escape with his money.
