THE cLoups OF GOD.

The city is full of labor
And struggle and strife and care,
The fever-pulse of the city
Is throbbiug in all the air;
But calm through the sunlit. spaces,
And calm through the starlit sky,
Forever, over the city,
The clouds of God go by.
The city is full of passion
And shame and anger aud SIN,
OF hearts that are dark with evil,
Of souls that are black within;
But white as the robes of angels,
As pure through the wind-swept sky,
Forever, over the city.
The clouds of God go by.
The city is full of sorrow
And tears that are shed in vain;
By day and by night there rises
The voice of its grief and pain
But soft as benediction,
They bend from the vault on.high,
Aud over the sorrowful city
The clouds of God go by.
o ewes that are old with vigil!
o eyes that are dim with tears!
Look up from the path of sorrow,
That measures itself in years,
And read in the blue above you
The peace that is ever nigh,
While over the troubled city
The clouds of God go by.

much. would like to tell he sisters about
pet hen of mine, and what good lessons of
cheerfulness and patience under difficulties
she teaches me. She lost both her feet the
first winter Of her life, six or seven years ago,
by freezing. suppose, but how she did it
never knew. found her on the floor Of the
pen one terribly cold winter morning. She
could not walk, only hobble. She remained
like that for a long time; then she lost both
feet, leaving just straight little -sticks."
But my! Isn't she smart, and can't she
handle those sticks. She trots around, PIRATES
and sings, lays good lot Of eggs, gets broody,
does everything any other hen does except
scratch. She hasn't scratched yeti" can
put her in the garden and she will do no
harm, SO she has some privileges other hens
have not. She is very tame. always runs TO
meet me whenever 20 out to the house or
yard, singing with all her might. l often
think. as 1 watch her, how much better 1t
would be if we all-myself included-hsd such
a happy cheerful disposition and would be
as "spunky" and resolute in regard to our
handicaps as she.
II seems to me there is about as much
difference in hens as there is in people. too.

care Of large flock myself. and raise all the
chickens on the place, and enjoy it very
much, and wish i had more time to spend
with them. 1t Is very interesting work, I
think, and just love to tend the little chick

I Was interested in the different ways Of

always better, think, to boil all the white
clothes before rubbing. Either put them On

Victor Carlstrona, Noted
 Airn1an, and His Pupil < 7hr0lun t0 Death from Air

Carlstrom reached the zenith of his fame when he flew from Chicago to New York for the New York Times several months ago. Previous to that time he had flown from Newport News to New York without stop. setting record for cross-country flights. Carlstrom also held the American record for altitude with pilot and one passenger having ascended to height of 16,5O0 feet here year ago. Earlier in his flying days. Carlstrom flew from Toronto to Buffalo. He had won numerous other laurels in the aviation world, and had been awarded a medal by the Aero Club of America.
 A few weeks ago Carlstrom had re- ceived an appointment as first lieutenant in the aviation reserve corps of the Uni ted States army. He was considered one of the best instructors in the country and had a large class of army students at the local school.
 Epes resigned his position as teller in a local bank last Saturday and had arr ranged to take the aviation course as a civilian until his application had been acted upon by the army authorities. He recently defrayed his own expenses to Washington to undergo the examination and anticipated an appointment at an early date.

Newport News, May 9.-Victor Carl strom, aviator instructor at the Atlantic coast aeronautical station here, and one of the foremost flyers in America. and Gary B. Epes of Newport News a stu dent flyer, were instantly killed this aft ernoon at 12:30 o'clock when the air plane in which they were flying collapsed at an altitude of about 3500 feet and fell like a plummet to the earth.
 The machine was smashed to splinters and the bodies of the victims were hor- ribly mutilated beyond recognition. The fall was witnessed by hundreds of persons in various sections of the city and caused a near panic among the children at one of the public schools, who were watch ing the flyers during their noon recess
 Carlstrom was giving Epes his first flight or 'joy ride" as the flyers call the initial lesson. They left the ground and rapidly rose to about $500 feet. They were flying along smoothly when those persons watching the machine saw 1t sud- denly cr,.mple up and plunge downward.
 As the crippled machine fell observers saw a portion of the plane sailing after it. This proved to be the right wing, which evidently gave way and caused the remainder of the plane to collapse

.SO[ONS CAN'T AGREE IN CONFERENCE 0N
 WAR ARMY MEASURE

Washington, May 9.-Another day or conferences on the war army bill found Senate and House committees still far apart on many differences in the bill as i1 passed the two houses. Another ef- fort, probably final, will be made to get together tomorrow.
 There was evidence tonight that the Senate eonferees were about ready to re- port deadlock, and ask for further in structions They are insisting on the Sen ate provisions to enforce prohibition at army posts and to permit Colonel Roose- welt to raise division. The differences in the age limits of those subject to the selective draft 21 to 27 in the Senate and 21 to 40 in the house bill also are stiT disputed, but they probably could be adjusted if the other two issues were out of the way.
 Senators on the committee feel that un- less the administration exerts strong pressure the Senate will insist on retain ing the Roosevelt amendment and the House members are of the decided opin- ion that the House will not accept It.

Leaders hope for final vote by SatIr- day night.

Senator Williams circulated petition to invoke the rule in executive session yes terday, but leaders in charge of the measure frowned on the suggestion and it was predicted tonight that the petition never would be brought formally to the Senate.
 Senators Vardaman and Ashurst took most of the time in debate today. at tacking the censorship section. Several were introduced differing from the provision as proposed by the administrations
