SPIRITUAL SENSES.

SPIRITUAL SENSES.
There's an eye beyond the human,
That bcholdeth only good.
That secs Gods vast creation
And mans real brotherhood:
That looks on things Bupernal,
Rejoicing in the light
Which revealeth perfect Wisdom,
Omnipotence and might
There's an ear beyond the finite,
Which hears only words OF peace
Which lists to sweetest harmonies
That never, never cease
Which hears the constant melody
OF soul-revivins Life,
And nothing knows OF finite sense.
OF sin and human strife
There's a sense that tastes tho real,
And sees that God is good.
Whose delights are rare unfold!ngs
OF the blessed Fatherhood;
Whose silent speech. the thought OF Cod.
Expressed in His Idea.
Has sweetest taste Of Life and Love.
And never taste Of fear.
There's a Power. mighty Presence
Which sustains immortal man.
Which he feels Ic Life eternal.
For he knows man ne'er began.
Forever with the Father.
He feeleth joy and rest.
Unfoldeth. as the lily
On the waters peaceful breast
There's a sense beyond the finite,
Which inhales Gods atmosphere,
And smells the sweet aroma
or Loves nowere ever near:
Which wanders In His garden,
Drinking in the perfumes rare.
And nothing knows Of planting,
OF watering. or OF care.
Thus seeing. hearing. taste. and smeH
And feeling, are divine:
And prayers like censers perfumes ria
20 Father we are Thine"
Then. turning from the mortal,
And gazing on the goal.
We lose our finite sense Of SELF.
And lnd our sense In Soul.

Capt Ecker sighted the balloon
about mile distant and thought al
first that it was another fishing
smack in distress. He sailed to the aid
of the supposed schooner and on an

men spent the remainder of the night

the opinion of representatives of the
war finance corporation. Federal Inter
national Banking company and the Fed
eral Reserve bank of Atlanta, who to-

MINERS YIELD;
CONFERENCE IS
TO Be CALLED
Owners and Workers to Meet
Monday to Discuss Diff
ferences.
LIKELY STRUGGLE
WILL BE AVERTED
Government and Owners Agree
to an Unconditional
Conference.
tey The Associates Press.)

LONDON, April 9.-The strike of
>.the coal miners, which threatened 10
carry with Il a general strike OF the
railroad mc1 and transport workers,
seems now, to be in fair way OF
settlement through negotiations.
The dispute throughout has been
fruitful OF surprises, and another was
sprung tonight when, after confer
ences and interviews between the
parties concerned lasting all day long,
and when II was supposed that all
efforts to move the miners had proved
Intellectual, 1t was suddenly announced
that the miners had yielded and that
a conference with the coal owners had
been convened for Monday to discuss
the questions involved, while notices
were sent to the mining districts urg-
ing abstention from any action that
would interfere with necessary mea-
sures for the saftey of the miners.
The only explanation yet available
as to what inducements were offered
10 the miners to remove their rooted
objection to asserting to steps assur
ing the safety OF the mine owners
property Is the somewhat cryptic
statement of Frank Hodges, secretary
OF the miners union--"the conference
was arranged unconditionally"
Whether the rumors that the gov
ernment Is willing that the wage ques-
tion should be adjusted on a national
basis may be held to explain the
change in the situation is unknown. IL,
rs Mr.. Hodges suggests, the govern
ment and mine owners have really
agreed to an unconditional conference,
that would be sufficient to induce the
miners to yield the pumping point In
any case, the unexpected agreement
gives the liveliest hopes that the
struggle which would have swept the
country will be averted.
