An Hour With joaquin Miller.
ORGANIZERS.

(By Joaquin Miller)
All there be souls none understand
Like clouds, they cannot touch the
land,
Drive as they may by field or town.
Then we look wise at this and frown,
And we cry Fool" and cry Take
hold
Of earth, and fashion Gods of gold!'
Unanchored ships that blow and blow,
Sail to and fro and then go down
In unknown seas that none shall
Without one ripple of renown;
Poor drifting dreamers sailing by,
That seem to only live to die.
Call these not fools; the test of worth
Is not the hold you have of earth.
10, there be gentlest souls, sea blown,
That know not any harbor known;
And it may be the reason is
They touch on fairer shores than this.
At the meeting of the Ellsworth
woman's club next Tuesday after
