All around, The mountains shone with splendor, as the rays Of Phoebus' sinking lamp touched all with gold. Their summits, capp'd with never-melting snow, Return'd the light with ten-fold brilliancy. The clouds above then glowld, then pal'd, as day Gave o'er her empire to approaching night. The many perils of the dark'ning path In1pel1'd the gazing Wanderer to halt, And ponder what Were best for him to do. But as he lookld, a ntful gleam of light Reveal'd a monastery, desolate, Which sat alone upon a mountain slope, The monument of long-dead Wealth and power. There could he 'rind a shelter for the night, Perchanceg so on he strugglid 5 till at length He gained the sculptur'd portal. Loud he knocked, And long. The echoes rang through empty halls, Reverberating through the corridors. A sound of clanlcing chains-a rusty key Screeching within the lock-a bolt shot back 5 The door swung inward on complaining hinge. Reveal'd stood a man 3 his head was crown'd With a White aureole of hair. His face Was Wrinkl'd with old age, a long White beard Descended to the girdle at his waist. Pax vobiscum ! Why comest thou, my son, Along this road, unused to stranger's feet This many a year? Tell me what seekest thou?' 'Tis food I ask, and lodging for the night, Oh reveren'd father 3 cans't thou give it me? Yea, verily, I can. Wilt thou come in, And share with me my frugal meal? I know That thou art Weary. Thrice a thousand thanks g Good father, lead the way, I'll follow thee. The monk set forth upon the board their meal A simple one-yet such their eager zest, Their hunger soon was satisfied. The monk Aroseg and then the stranger thus adclress'd: What doest thou, my son, so far away From chosen haunts of men? Why wand'rest thou Among these mountains gray? Myfather, I Would gladly tell thee all, but that I fear To rouse harsh mem'ries, painful to my soul. Dost thou think that thou canst conceal from Thy secret? 'Tis no secret to my heart. I, too, have felt love's pangs. Under his lash 3 II1 I, too, have suifer'd. Wouldst thou learn my tale? It was long years ago, in fair Seville, That Fate my steps directed down a street Perfum'd with blossoms of the orange trees That fring'd the Way. The birds were twittering, Their hearts with happiness were iill'd. Above That harmony celestial there came A tone as pure, and ringing sweet, as if An angel had come down to sing of love. In rapture I was steep'd. Again that voice, A maid was singing of a lover dear, Whose 1ov'd one to a distant clime had gone. Though crack'd my voice, I ll sing the song for thee, For she has taught it me, I know it well. 'Tis called by some the Spanish Lover's,P1aint: 'The sun shines not when thou'rt away, The world seems sad and weary: Ne'er more shall I be glad or gay, 'Till my 1ov'd one is near me. I fain would sit, and sing of thee, Forever and evermoreg .I swear by the stars above thee, H 'Tis thee I'1l always adore. I'l1 play upon my sweet guitar, And sing of thee, Love's dulcet star.' I turn'd. 'Twas but a passing glimpse I had, But at that sight my heart with rapture thrill'd. A maid .sat there, upon a balcony, With twanging lute passing the hours away. I stopp'd. Again that song rang out. My heart, Pierc'd through and through, by love, beat with fierce joy. I raised my eyes to her's, a moment gazed, We had confess'd our love-each knew the truth. I Day after day sped on in sweetest bliss, In rapture, indescribable in words, A Till on the hush of Sabbath's sacred morn, The clanging, moaning, sobbing, groaning bells Rang out their dire alarm, K The Plague! The Plague! ' She died. Yet I was leftia shatterid wreck To drag a useless life through endless years. 'Twas thus I came to this deserted home Of Mother Church. 'A hermit I became, Yet I 'curse not my lot 3 for, though she's dead, She's dearer even now to me' than e'er She was in life. The years roll on, but can Not dull the brightness of her faceg old Time Makes each line dearergi butJI wish the day Would come full soon, when I may follow her To that place where we never more shall part. God's benison, my son, and a good night I ' The aged hermit rose, and turn'd to go, H QMassive structure, tall, impressive D And two nights of stairs ascending, Heard a sound of sad forebodingf Heard the bell, the tardy signal: But alas! Among the Seniors One familiar face was missingf One desk vacant in room forty 1' 'Twas the Visage of our hero, 'Twas' the desk of our friend Bobby-7 He the darling of the poets, He the pride of all his teachers. Where, you wonder, is our hero With-his spectacles rnost learned, With his hair, oh! so poetic, With his smile beyond description? on this same bright winter's morning- Came great trouble on poor Bobby, Came great swelling and excrescence. And he rose with strange sensations, , Strange sensations that the mumps bring Had the mumps upon the left side, Had the mumps upon the right side, And the mumps had he on both sides. And besides this great protub'rance, And besides this mighty swelling, Bobby had another sorrow, . And his pain and grief were doubled By the advent of some molars- Of his longed-for teeth ,of Wisdom, But, alas, no longer longed for. K And they brought with them such anguish That he wished them where they came from Thus, a week, our Bobby suifered, And he went no longer schoolward. Now, I answer, hence this epic, Hence this tale of great affiictiong Hence this solemn tale of trouble,- Tale of trouble and misfortune, And of grievous agitation. The Fall Thereof. BY G. H.

BY ROBERT E. RICHARDSON. IILLUSTRATED BY S. JAMES PICKEI1-.1 N all probability, the man best known to the good people ot Gorton, and most respected by them, was Mr. Atherton Adams, Jr. He was a man of the most upright goodness, oppressively good, in fact. He was a church member, and a teacher in the Sunday School. He belonged to every charitable organization of which the village could boast. To add to his joys he had a most charming wife, also, he owned a dogg and thereby hangs a tale. Mr. Atherton Adams, Sr., was a man of about fifty. Born on a farm near Gorton, he had, as soon as he had made his pile, returned thither to spend the remainder of his days. To keep his hand in, as he expressed it, he had opened a law oflice, and employed his son, Atherton, Ir., as clerk. The position was a sinecure, for law was, happily, an almost unknown quantity in Gorton. The day had been most unbearably hotg but, as evening drew on, a cool breeze sprang up. Mr. and Mrs. Atherton, Ir., sat on the front porch, and took full advantage of the coolness. A stillness, unbroken save for the chirping of the crickets, settled round them, and the rising moon poured its silvery light over all. But, suddenly, the almost sacred hush was fractured by a series of long, melancholy howls. High, keen and piercing, they rose and fell in undulating cadences, finally shading off into silence. At the iirst sound Mrs. Atherton, Jr., grasped her husband's arm. O, Ath! she cried. What is that? Nothing but the dog serenading the moon, my dear, he replied calmly, although his nerves had received a severe shock. Well, said his wife, I do wish there was some way of making him stop his dreadful noise. Come, 1,111 going ing it's late. And so Mr. and Mrs. Atherton, Jr., retired to rest. ' But the dog sat on his haunches, and continued to regard the moon most iixedly. No wonder he did so. Any one in his position would have done the same. In the first place, his name may have had something to do with the matter, for it was Thomas Ieiferson. Secondly, he was most unutterably lonesome, having no canine friends with whom to pass the time of day. But as he ,.....u:: E He was most unutterably lonesome. sat there, the sound of a confused scuflie reached his ears. Then a short yelp or two. Like a shot, Thomas jefferson departed to investigate. ' All the stores of the village were clustered together in one block, on the main street. Occupying one corner of this block was the only saloon the town contained, and directly opposite to itwas the grocery store. Back of the saloon was a large yard, and it was to this place that Thomas had been lured. It did not take him long to get acquainted, and he had a most glorious frolic. Indeed, so loud did the revelry become that the saloonkeeper was recalled from the land of dreams. He glanced into the yard, and, spying a strange dog, he at once recognized him as belonging to Mr. Atherton Adams, Ir. Curse that man! said he. He's been trying- to run me out of town. I wonder if I can do anything to his dog? And so he retired to his 'bed to consider the matter. He .couldn't shoot the dog 3 that would bring the village authorities down on him ationce. But, and here an idea crashed into his brain, he might make the dog a drunkard! Brilliant inspiration! It'l1 take time, 'said he to himself. But it's a sure thing. I'll do it. Thomas Jefferson returned home early- in the morning, look- ing somewhat the worse for wear. He immediately proceeded to make up lost sleep. But in the afternoon, being thoroughly rested, he concluded to visit his friend, the saloon dog, once more. No sooner said than done. In less than five minutes Thomas jefferson was engaged in a game of tag with his new acquaintance. The day Was very hot, the game most exhausting, and Thomas soon longed for a drink. Looking about him, he spied a pan, containing what appeared to be Water. W'ithout a moment's hesitation, he took a long draught. That Water was the strongest that Thomas had ever tasted. It made his control of his legs rather uncertain, and it also caused him to think that 'Y home, was the best place arter all. So, with all the dignity that he could muster, he took his way thither, and spent the next few hours in retirement under the barn. Sad to relate, it required but that one nrst tipple to start him on the down-hill road. The next day brought a craving for an- other experience of those strange sensations. So he revisited the saloon, slunk home by the alley and again passed the day in retirement under the barn. Mrs. Atherton, Ir., gently Won- dered Where Thomas had been all day., and was answered by her spouse with the comforting assurance that he guessed that Thomas J. could take care of himself. And there the matter dropped. I But the mischief was only begun. Thomas liked his drink so Well that he soon took his walk twice a day. He drank more and more each time. I-Ie often came out of the front door of-the saloon, for the keeper allowed him full run of the place, and paraded' home by the main street. Dick Emory, general- do- nothing and wise-man of the village of Gorton, sat upon a cracker- box 'in front of the grocery store, and addressed nobody in particular : I wundered why so many promisin' young men must be ruined by drink. Now, thare's'young Ath. Adams. He must go- to the saloon at least wunct every day, an' some days oftenerf' K 4 How d' you know? inquired a listener. I see his dorg there every little while, an' you all know that ar' dorg follers him every whare. V Pshaw! I don't think that Adams hez tuk to drink, replied the other. He ain't that kind. Whether he is 'er not's another question, responded Emory. But thar is the dorgf' ' And, indeed, there he was. Thomas had taken more than was good, even for him. He was lurching and wabbling, trying to walk on both sides of the sidewalk at once, and having a very hard time of it to make any headway at all. Gosh, cried one of I the men at the store. U What in nation's got into the dorg? 'If 'twas a man, I'd say he was drunk. And they all stopped talking, inorder to laugh at the dog's antics. ' But, as luck would have it, Mr. and Mrs. Atherton Adams, Ir., had chosen, this, of all days, to go calling. They had just sallied out of the front gate, and Mrs. Atherton was putting up her parasol, when her attention was suddenly attracted by the sight of a dog lurching towards them. Had it been a man, she would certainly have pronounced him drunk. She gazed for a long minute, and then the parasol dropped from her hands. Atherton ! she almost shrieked. Is that Thomas? I'm almost sure it is ! I can't say for sure, responded Atherton, Ir., but it cer- tainly looks very much like him.',' But the question of identity was soon settled, and by the dog himself. For Thomas, chancing to look up, beheld two people watching him. Even with his befuddled wits he recognized his master and mistress, and was ashamed. With a melancholy howl, he dived into the shrubbery at the edge of the walk, and made an erratic, course off over the lawn. ' Let him go, said Mr. Atherton Qalthough Mrs. A. was not 1 .I lv 'JJ' I .

Emory was not the only one who had observed them. Miss jane Dagget, spinster, of uncertain age and caustic tongue, spreader of gossip and scandal for the village, had also taken note of the dog's frequent visits to the saloon, and, like Emory, had put two and two together. As a result of that operation in mathematics, the pastor in Mr. Atherton, Jrfs, church, Rev. Theophilus Wel- den, had a visit from Miss Dagget that very afternoon. Miss Dagget found the Rev. Theophilus in his study, deep in the preparation of his next Sunday's sermon. He looked up with no very friendly eye as Miss Dagget entered. ffl' V , y I X .9 ll , ,.. if I Jr A Z I ,L is L!

Theophilus in his study. Well, Miss Daggetj' he demanded, as she seated herself, What's the matter now? ' O, Mr. Welden ! she cried. To think that a church mem- ber, and a teacher in the Sunday school, should be guilty of such a sin as that to which I am almost sure one of your flock has succumbed! He goes to the saloon, I am almost positive, at least twice a day! Mr. Welden regarded her over his glasses. He was a white- haired, benevolent old many but, despite his age, he was the last man to suspect any one else of wrong-doing. Nor did he usually pay much heed to the gossip of Miss Dagget. But this, he felt, must be something of importance, and so he demanded, Well, who is it? , V Young Mr. Adamsf, she replied. I see his dog there every day, usually about ten in the morning and three in the after- noon, and you know that he and his dog are almost inseparable. I will see him this evening, and learn the truth, said Mr. Welden. But don't say anything about it to any one in the meantime. 'fOh, I wish you would ind out the truth, replied the spin- ster, in agitated tones. I should hate to have to believe that young Mr. Adams was a confirmed drunkardf' And with this parting speech she retired. Mr. and Mrs. Atherton, Jr., were seated in their usual -places on the front porch, as Mr. Welden came up the Walk. sci 1 umm I f Ili l 5 fra , 44' ..l ', , .

Mr. Welden came up the walk. . Come right up, Atherton called out.' Pm glad to see you. Won't you sit down? ' ' I should like a few moment's private chat with you, said the minister. Certainly, comelinto my study, said Atherton, secretly wondering what could have brought this upon him. Atherton, said the old minister, when they were in the room, I've knowniiyou a good many years, and I've liked you as long as I've known you. I know that you are a thoroughly good young man, or, at least, that you mean to be. But today I was informed by a' certain person that you were in the habit of visiting the saloon every day. I don't ,mind telling you that I don't put much faith in the story, but it might be as well to have you deny it. . Mr.. Atherton Adams, jr., was stunned. He hardly knew, at nrst, whether to take the matter as a joke or as an insult. But good nature finally conquered, and he replied, I never was in a saloon in my life. What person told you this, and at what time of day Cfor I guess your informant must be of the female genderj did she say that I visited this place? . . The person was Miss Dagget, and the times about ten in the morning, and three in the afternoon. She did not say, point blank, that you went to the saloon, but she said that, seeingyour dog so much about the place, and that he goes there every day at about these times, she put two and two together-- Oh, said Mr. Atherton Adams, Ir. Mr. Welden, would it be asking too much of you to ask you to accompany me to the sa- loon to-morrow and make that man explain this thing, if he can? I will go, by all means, replied the minister. And so it befell that about ten the next morning, the saloonkeeper had some visitors, who did not come to sample his stock. They were the Reverend Theophilus VVelden and Mr. Atherton Adams, Ir. Together they hnally wormed the truth out of the man, and when Atherton heard it, he was furious. I am going to drive you out of this town if it costs me all I'm worth, he declared. And he was as good as his word. Within a month after the story had got abroad, the saloonkeeper received a' polite hint, which he did not deem it wise to ignore, and left. As for poor Thomas Jeiferson, before that day of reckoning, he had departed this world. Going out one day in an unusu- ally dazed condition, it suddenly occurred to him that the rail- road track would be a good place on which to sleep off his liquor. Acting upon this premise, he proceeded to go to sleep on the aforesaid track. A passing engine most inconsiderately reduced him to a pulp. ' 1 ' Poor Thomas Jefferson !

Naw, course it ain't written by Burt L. Standish, or d' aut'or of Diamond Dick an' his pals, but it's.about I-247-, an' no mistake. The feller wot speiled dis t'ing passed in ,his checks 'fore Dewey wuz born, but, say, he wuz onto his job, if he did live before Manila Bay. Q He wuzn't up much on de rules of de game, an' got his story balled up once in a While, but considerin' dat he wuz an Eye- talian, there's nuthin' t' kick about. Well, as I wuz sayin', d' story is about a feller called 'Eneas He didn't seem t' have no other name, of de aut'or forgot it, but I ' he wuz a Wize Guy, jes' the same, an' had nerve to burn.

Well, as I wuz sayin', Hilneas an' d' rest of his push wuz 'called Tro- n D' story is about a feller iEneas. called jans, an' dey hung out at a place called Troy, not Laundry or Ohio, but ies' Troy. Now, dis bunch got into a scrap wid a gang in annuder ward called Greeks, who wuz a bunch of Dagoes, an' a pretty poor lot of banana-cart pushers dey wuz, too. Dese Dagoes started to lick Eneas an' his gang, au' w'en de d' sbiner wuzn't lookin', dey iired t'ings back an' forth fer fair fer ten years. Den d' Greeks got sick of deir job, an' wanted t' get deir time au' quit, but couldn't scare up d' nerve t' pass it up an' look fer new jobs. Finally dey built a big t'ing like a horse an, bribed a feller, by tellin' him dey'd put him on d' School Board er make him Mayor's clerk, t' tell d' Trojans t' take dis horse into cl' city. Well, dis feller gave d' Trojans a bully speech, an' slung d' bojeeu fer fairy tales, stringin' 'em along till dey wus goin' t' take it in. But dere wuz one feller wot didn't want d' horse, he'd jes been defeated fer d' Board of Aldermen, an' wuz dead sore. Felly-citizens an' other reprobatesf' ' he says, we don't want dis horse, he says, we has troubles of our own, he says, let d' Greeks take theirs to a policeman, he says, but it wuz no go. G'wan, says' another, yer talkin' t'rougl1 yer hat. I can't, says d' kicker, it's an anacizronzlsmg we don't Wear 'em in Troy ! An' some big snakes ate him up, so he had f-ff, t' keep quiet. N All horses look alike t' me, says one of d' gang, come on, we can put it up by d' Steadman monument, an' dey took it in. But dat wuz a lwrse on d' Trojans, all right, fer it wuz full of Dago sojers, an' dat wuz d' bum inish of Troy, too, fer dey made d' old burg look like d' burnin' of Chicago or twenty-three cents an' a plugged nickel. ' Eneas got away fromld' patrol wagon wid a few friends an' PJ' UXQI'-3-fdf 'We don't want dis horse,' he says. piked down d' county road faster 'n d' Boers from d' British. Dat's right. He left his laager an' flew d' coop over d' kop so fast d' Greek cops wuz left at d' wire. Dat's no pun, it's on d' level. Say, he only touched d' ground in high places. You couldn't catch him wid an automobile or d' wireless telegraph. Well, he went down d' Manhattan road to d' Bay Shore, an' camped out fer his health an' d' rest of di winter. Dey made some new boats an' steam yachts an' went oii' lookin' fer new worlds t' get conquered in. Dat's right. Dese fellers wuz pretty smooth people if you say it quick, but dey didn't know a naptha launch from a canal boat. W'y, dey couldn't sail a rowboat up 2 lf. Dey made some new boats an' steam yachts. t' Waterville widout hittin' cl' pipe, d' Casino an' d' Wheelin' bridge. Dey didn't know where to go, er how t' git there. Fer six years dey chased around, gettin' lost an' 'rindin' themselves again, but nary a rest anywhere. Some places d' town wuz too slow, or d' rents too high, or d' Pastor's Union got after dem fer sailin' on Sunday an' having class socials, an' dey cert'ny had troubles fer fair, storms, shipwrecks, mumps, an' green paint, till finally a goddess got after 'em. Now I tell yeh, Dink, it's bad enough t' have big t'ings like birds swearin' at you in French, an spoilin' yer appetite, an' giants as big as Oscar Pinks he is, wid one eye Qlike d' bell over by Manual, t'rowin' bricks at you, but w'en a goddess mixes up you're goin' t' get set back to d' fourth row of d' gallery, sure. A -' But dese Trojans took deir nerve right- wid 'em an' bluffed it through till dey reached a place called Carthage. De shiners run ' in some Trojans, an' dey t'ought it was all oil' wid dem an' dey wuz dead scared. i Di women voted in dat town, an' d' mayor wuz a woman, Dido, an' she wuz boss of d' whole shebang. W'en his fellers wuz hauled up in P'lice Court ZEneas says, f'Look here, Mrs. Mayor, I want t' know w'y you're ipullin' in my gang, they wuzn't doin' nothin', an' if you won't let us alone we'll get out. 'Sure,5' says Dido, suit yourself, but d' police hadn't any business t' bother you, an' I'll have, 'em up on d' carpet-fer it next Week, so you needn't get out fer that, jes' stay an' make yerself at home. So she gave dem a ward fer themselves, an' put a couple of Trojans .on d' Council so dey'd get rich, an' one fwho'd been connected wid d' Troy Fire Department, and so had d' right kind of experienceg on d',Board of Education, so heid make d' town poor, an' all d' Trojans wuz respected and public-spirited citizens wot wouldn't knock d' Centennial er vote fer cl' Gas Plant. But Dido made Eneas tell all about his adventures. He wuz a bully talker, an elegant liar, an' a widower, so he suited Dido right down to 'di ground. She fell 'in love wid him, w'ich wuz hard luck for her. Eneas was a giddy .young t'ing, an' had no objections to a mild flirtation, but w'en Ashe began t' talk about lawyers an' breach of promise, he tiought he'd better leave his happy home an' make-tracks. ' He tipped d' wink t' his captains, an' ,dey began t' load on coal an' get up steam. I ' , .'Bnt one of Dido's friends got next to wot wuz happenin' an' called her up by long-distance phone, an' told her wotwuz goin' on down at d' coal docks. I Den she went to Father ZEneas Qcley always called him papal ani gave him a speil wot would do yer hair up in curl papers. .Well, as I wuz sayin', Bueas didn't say much back to her, he-,wuz too p'lite to sass a woman, 'specially w'en she wuz mayor anhchief ot police, but he cert'ny wished she wuz at Ten Mile Creek iisliin fer- sunnsh, an? dat's no dream. A One of d' gods Cthere wuz a Whole raft of 'ernj gave him a hunch, an' he flew d' coop in d' night. When Dido saw he wuz gone, she built a big bonhre an' drank carbolic acid, an' stabbed herself, an' jumped in d' fire, and' dat wuz ci' finish of Dido. But it never fazed Eneas, he bobbed up serenely, an' sailed to a place called Sicily. He didn't mean to go dere but jes' natcherly Went sailin' around, an' the first thing he knew-he wuz on d' spot. There- he had a sort of free-for-all picnic an' Field Day, races an' thingsj When d' crowd got together out at d' Fair Grounds, Eneas stood up on d' band stand and yelled troo' d' megaphone dat d' A irst t'ing on d' pro- gram wuz d' Interna- tional Yacht race, fer neck !

Dey all chased down l A d' line t' beat th' band, but the excursion boats got in the way, an' th' pilot wot steered Cap. Torn's ship wuz scared of d' rocks, and turned too far out, dat made Tom hnffy, an' he grabs ol' Mr. Pilot by d' slack of his uniform an' truns hirn in d' drink, an' does d' pilot act himself But Iirnsey gets a good lead, an' keeps it. Billy tried t' work a skin game, an' went in too far an' hit d' rocks, an' little Willie wuz up against it an' out of d' game. But Iimsey hikes along, runnin' easy an' gettin' his second wind-he's a winner, he is!- an' takes first money, George gets second prize, Tommy, widout a pilot or a pleasant thought, gets third, an' Billy, he gets it in d' neck, fer his boat wuz as full of holes as a Filipino is of bad t'oughts. Then they had a runnin' race, a hundred yard dash, wid college yells an' colors. Two of d' runners wuz from d' same college, and dey worked in snucks. All of 'ern wuz ten-second men, an' at d' crack of d' pistol dey began to run like diamond dyes. One of d' ringers got d' start, den came a feller from another college, den th' other ringer, whose partner wuz first. D' cinder path wuz slippery an d' first man fell, but he knocked number two man oh' his pins, too, so his pal won d' race. D' second man kicked, an' said it wuz a fake race an' that he Wanted his money back, an' that the other feller wuz a profes- sional, anyhow. Nope, says Mr. Pineas, you can't kick on th' umpire's decision, but you had hard luck, so I'll give you a consolation prize on th' side. Then th' other bloke wot fell down said he wou1dn't play if he didn't get a prize. I tell yer, Dink, them fellers wanted th' earth, w'y, they couldnlt get a pleasant look nowadays if they tried tl work th' judges! Next came th' boxing match, wid seconds an' backers, an' side bets, an' kinetoscopes, an' reporters, an' all th' other neces- sary things. Wot? Oh, yes! There wuz two bruisers, too, I fergot 'em ! A feller called Dares fprob'bly because he wanted t' risk his neck in a nghtj held dl heavy-weight championship belt. Dares wuz a warm member, an' dere werenlt no challengers, till an old bloky called Entellus got up an' says, Oh, well, I don't care if I dog I'm kind of a has-been, but I think I can hold this teller fer a while, till he gets a reputation. So he puts on the mits, an' time is called. Entellus went easy at first, jes' on the defensive, an' Dares tried all the leads he knew, hooks an' jabs an' swings an' short- arm punchesg but Entellus wuz dead 'next to d' science, an' didn't even counter. All of a sudden Entellus tried d' pivot blow. Say ! It wuz a terror t' Wildcats! But Dares sidestepped an' Entellus fanned the air. W'y, he swung so hard dat wien he missed he landed in d' ropes! Datis right. Dat miss put Entellus in a luvly grouch, an' he sailed into Dares an' didn't do a t'ing! Oh, no! Say, he cleaned Dares' clock good and proper! He swatted him around d' ring, an' gave him d' solar plexus an' a headache till d' referee parted 'em, an' Dares tirew up d' sponge! f as ' al I A .4 fb , 1-.l - - , 1 L 5 4 ' ' .

D' handicap didn't work right, either, for th' fellie wot pulled in first money at A hundred-to-one shot didn't hit the bullseye at all, but he fixed his arrow wid a match an, some turpentine so it burned up in de air, an' d' farmers in Sicily t'ought dat a gent wot could work that kind of a con game must be about 4-11-44. An' he cert'ny wuz handy wid d' shells, for ZEneas himself couldn't spot dl phoney arrow, an' wuz taken in wid d' rest of 'em by dat amateur magician widout a license!

BY ROBERT E. RICHARDSON. IILLUSTRATED BY S. JAMES Pxcxrarl ARDS before now have praised the woodland life, How that men there, removed from toil and strife And busy contention of this noisy world, With the banner of idleness far unfurled, Might seek refreshment, rest, recuperation, And by a long continued relaxation, Might well secure themselves 'gainst future ills, As surely as by taking Swamp Root Pills. Three urban youths, woo'd by these poets vain, Did lay their courses for a verdant plain. A lake, gem-like, within that vale was set, And there both fish and swimming they might get. They turned their foot-steps towards the northern star, And judged that tifty miles a distance far Enough was from their homes and anxious friends 3 So each his different path to that spot wends. One goes on horse-back 5 one upon the train, And one traced many a crooked country lane Upon his steed of steel, whose dash and fire Did oft excite its Wearied rider's ire. He of the train arrived upon a Sundayg The others reached the scene the following Monday. He of the train did 'drst set up the tent, A piece of canvas, o'er a rope it went Between two trees, which far enough apart From the leaf-covered earth to heaven did start. He cooked his supperg then as it grew dark, He lit a candle from the camp-ire's spark, And stuck it to a tree. He straightway knocked it down And kindled blaze enough to tire a town. Two kindly strangers, coming through the woods, Gave him eiiicient help to save his goods. So passed the night, and on the following day Arrived his comrades g but upon the Way He of the wheel had burst his forward tire. But why should I, the author, further mire You, reader, with details?

So they did cross the lake, and with the backing Of a landlord's consent this time they pitch Their camp Within a pleasant, sheltered niche.

Two boys arose, and, leaving downy beds, Whereon they had since supper couched their heads, Perarnbulated 'neath the dripping wood. The road beneath their feet was none too good. A wind was blowingg but necessity to have A light, compelled one of these youth so brave To hold a candle, lighted, close beneath his heart, And with the other hand keep flapping coat apart, To shield from Wind the feeble Hickering flame. Close in his foot-steps, on the other came, Leading the horse, the cause of discontent, And toward some friendly stable steps they bent. At one place they asked admission, to receive The answer, I know you not, you'd better leave. They found at last a barn with open door, And with abundant hay upon the iioor.

T was with great surprise that I received The wond'rous news Qby me scarcely believed- I knew my own inferiorityj, That by a very great majority, The Class of Naughty-Naught had chosen me To write the annual class prophecy. Wholly unitted for this mighty work, ,Yet never was I known a task to shirk. About the ancient prophecies I Read: And to their prophecies did apply Myself so diligently, that these facts Learned I, about the prophets and their acts. Thus, all the seers of whom I ever read Have either been old men, with hair, 'tis said, Profuse and long and beautiful, adorning Their facesg or were womenkind suborning Their natural love for inen, or young, or old, These were the ones that prophecies have told. In the second count, I signally do fail, And my doleful lot, right niournfully bewail. As to the irst? As Friend Dan Crane would say, I have been under training every day. In what I tell you think not that I hoax, I Each night did I apply, so as to coax Reluctant capillaries from their place, A breadfand-milk poultice upon my face. One morning clear, O, Victory! did I cry, For with a microscope to aid mine eye, I saw upon the right cheek, hairs, just seven 5 And on the left, were six, the lip, eleven. Myicountenance became like stubble rough, Till, now, methought, my face had hair enough, Then to the sibyl of our school I went, Rightly, I Thought, Could Help In Eminent Duties which now I've striven to perform, With words of wisdom, me she did inform That to the Delian Apollo I Must go, and aid divine should forthwith try. Then I departed to Apollo's shrine To ask of him, his mighty aid, divine. Through many days, in fervent prayer I sought That he might tell me what the Future taught. A message came, to say that I must wait For he, Apollo, would come hence in state, Because oi the importance of our class, Which none e'er did, or ever will surpass. APOLLO DICIT.

MOORMAN. ' CHAPTER I. The train had stopped at last. The hurrying crowd surged to the doors anxious' to leave the dusty coaches. The usual commotion commenced as bags, satchels, boxes and Wraps were tossed about. Each passenger had something to look after and countless cabmen were trying their best to persuade the travelers that their conveyances were the cheapest and best in town. Amidst this throng were two young men. At a glance one could see they were college-bred. Was it because the hair of each was parted -so scrupulously or because of their scholarly look? At any rate, they sauntered on, little caring what the world thought of them. - I ' They entered a magnificent depot, the pride of the Centennial City. Pillars of white marble supported the frescoed ceilings, While gleaming mirrors were to be seen at every turn. A broad staircase led to the dining-rooms above. Here Toledo's artistic talent was displayed. The glittering glass, the polished silver, the stately palms all proclaimed it. Presently the young men entered and ordered dinner. Well Bryce, said the fair-haired young man, I don't feel as familiar here as I used to. Toledo is certainly putting on airs. No doubt about it, no doubt at all. It seems ages since we left home, doesn't it Forster P said theqother. Yes, said he, and to-morrow we'll do the Exposition. But let us eat. And being young men with an appetite, of course the conversation was postponed until the duty before them had been discharged satisfactorily. ' These young men were great friends. From the time that they were Juniors in the Toledo High School, their aifection had neverwavered. Frank Forster and George Bryce could not bear the thoughts of parting when the class of rgoo stepped out into the world. They agreed to enter Cornell University the following fall. So when the summer had slipped away their desire for knowledge carried them away from their native town, and they then entered upon their college career. And now they had nnished their third year successfully. Their work was hard, but do not imagine their life was so in consequence. For they were up to the pranks and follies' of college life and no one knows better than they the fun a halll dozen quiet boys can have. ' ' . But Frank was bashful. Now, in his friend Bryce's eye, this was a terrible drawback 5 O, he was not bashful with the boys, but with the other sex he quite lost his self-confidence. Occasionally George and Frank called on the young ladies with whom they were acquainted in this college town. Frank was always ready to go after a few moment's chat. Why was it? The young ladies were attractive, no doubt of it, and the young men, well- were they not from Toledo and the class of rgoo? Still Forster's heart was not susceptible. Nor do I say his friend's was, only Bryce was not bashful. , Having finished their bounteous repast, our friends pro- ceeded to their homes. It is needless to say that there they were received with welcome words and good cheer. They had :agreed to meet the next day that they might visit the Exposition grounds together. I 1 - CHAPTER II., The next day was hot. Early in the morning the crowds 'began to move. 'And soon-street cars, carriages, automobiles, and steamboats were depositing their burdens at Lake Erie Park. . - A light' breeze from the lake refreshed the eager sight-seers. Everything 'that could add to the pleasure of the visitors was noticeable. Benches, chairs and swings were in shady places. Cool drinks of every description, ices, fruits, peanuts, candy, popcorn, and even chewing-gum offered. refreshment for only twice the usual price. . No effective description could be given of the grandeur of the State exhibits. The Midway was there-ah yes! and it oH'ered the usual attractions. Let us enter a little tent in the Midway. Instantly one sees by the Oriental effect that this is a fortune teller's booth. Beaded trinkets of every description meet the eye. At one end of the room is an alcove fitted up with rich rugs and curtains. Over the entrance is a sign with this inscription : ANYTHING YOU WISH TO KNOW. ENQUIRE WITHIN. FIFTY CENTS. Two chairs were in this little room. One of them is occu- pied by an old woman. She is certainly an Egyptian, for her hair is coarse and black and she has an angular igure. Her shoulders are stooped, and around them a plaid shawl is wrapped. Her face is brown and pinched and wears an expression of pas- sionate bitteruess. In her claw-like hands she is twisting several strings of beads. While she is thus engaged some persons enter the tent. Where have we seen them before? Ah, it is George Bryce and Frank Forster again! Why are they here? Probably 'to learn their future. They have been to such places before, and the information received always varied. But our friends take a certain pleasure in the weird advice. But Bryce does not feel inclined to-day to trust his future to such hands, and Forster enters the alcove alone. Now, he has seen Gypsies before, but as he gazes upon this one, he confesses to himself that he has never seen one so awe-inspiring. He walked up quickly and took his seat. Young man, said she, you have just taken a journey. Perhaps you will take another if you follow my directions. When will that be? said Frank, smiling. That I can not tell. It depends upon yourself. Listen, you cme here by chance, you think. No, it was Fate. In this city a parcel will be lost. You are destined to find it. This may 1 happen to-day or within three days. That depends upon the moon. The moon!', exclaimed Frank. Yes, the moon, said she. Great events are always achieved by the course of the moon. Now, she went on, some- thing trifling will be in this parcel, but it will be of great value to the owner. Do you, therefore, return it when you iind it. Your future depends upon this incident. If you do not follow out my warning your life will be lacking in some respects. But do as I say, and you will have a few diiiiculties to conquer, and the rest will be smooth sailing. However, she said, as she gazed intently at two lines on his hand, there is an indication here you must observe. It is a young lady who owns this parcel. She knows you, and she will ask you to call. Do not, for although you might desire to do so, it is not best. Do not go to her home for two weeks, and by that time the moon will be propitiousf' After receiving several directions he went out to his friend, who was impatiently awaiting his appearance. Well, what did the old hag have to say, or was she a young one? asked George, as they emerged from the tent. You are right, she was a hag, said Frank, andkhe laugh- ingly related the conversation to his friend. They, had walked a block by this time, and Eve minutes later Frank Forster had entirely dismissed from his mind the warnings of the Egyptian. But the Fates were not to be thwarted in this manner, as we pres- ently shall see. Such a day as our two friends had! They occasionally met a person they knew and were greeted eifusively. With untiring effort they went throughthe State structures. Finally they entered a building devoted to the interests of the Toledo High School. Here the classes of '99, IQOO, etc., had displayed their lit- erary talent. In glass cases the senior rhetoricals repose. It is a privilege to read them. It is said that this is one of the best paying buildings at the Exposition. It costs ten cents to be enabled to peruse these valuable manuscripts. Every day, artists of every description are seen eagerly gathering the remarkable knowledge which is displayed within these pages. The glass case containing the productions of the class of 1900 has become cracked because of the-immense crowds who eagerly gaze within. What a shame it is! Some one has thoughtfully placed a sign near : Ulfeep .off the Glass. Here our friends Forster and Bryce stopped. They did not pay the required ten cents to read them again. Most of them still lingered in their memory. Here in the center was An Ideal Commencement, by Clara Daugherty. Ah, there is Oscar Schreiberis Pitfalls of Nations! It is well known that Presi- dent McKinley hearing of this famous production through his political friends, upon entering this building called for the ex- tract and read it through. Who would have dreamed of such a thing? Chinese Gordon, ,by Robert Richardson, next meets their gaze. What a world of memories that oration recalls ! Whence Descended Man, by Eva Ienney, and Orsalina Schmeltz's Marie Antoinette, are placed side by side. By their works shall ye know them. Anglo-Saxon Supremacy, by Louis Englander, and the Fall of Fort Sumter, by David Eppstein, seenrto ring with applause even yet. In another apartment are the RETINAS, the High School Annual, the CENTURION, and other published works. They all proclaim to the world the wonderful ability in literary eiforts of the Toledo High School. 4 As it was growing late, George and Frank proceeded onward. But they were much fatigued and decided to set out for home. Thus ended their first day at the Exposition. CHAPTER III. Toledo, as we have seen, has grown much more beautiful in the last three years. Not only in that portion where the Cen- tennial is held, but also in many other parts. She had always had a decided liking for parks, and now Ottawa, Walbridge, Riverside and Lake Erie parks became pleasant retreats for enthusiastic visitors. She had improved in other respects. Her street commissioners had done their duty well' and now she had the handsomest boulevards in the state of Ohio. And the bridge commissioners were not idle. The much talked-of Ieiferson street bridge had been erected and west siders, as well as those on the east side, were finally happy. On this particular day a young lady might have been seen at Walbiidge park, busily sketching a scene on the river. She looked decidedly pretty as she sat there with her sketch- book in her lap. She wore, a natty suit of brown, and indeed no other shade would have suited her better. Her hair and eyes were this same color. Her face would have attracted notice any- where for its expression of innocence. The young lady still worked away. Her sketch was fast nearing completion, and, for the time being, she was wholly absorbed in her work. Suddenly a young man came hurrying along the walk. He had evidently noticed our friend, for he stopped. She didn't look up. So, coming up behind her he lightly' touched her shoulder. Then she turned. Oh, it'syou, is it? said she. ' ' So it seems-but what are you working at so industrious- ly? replied the young man, coming around to the other side ot the bench and taking a seat at her side. Well, I am sketching and I want to get this finished before I go home. So if you want to stay here don't move or say another word until I get this done, said she. And he obeyed. I wonder how many young men there are who would have not done likewise? 4 He watched her a few minutes and then took the music roll at her side, containing some of her drawings and opened it. He looked at them all critically and then looked at her again. As he put the music roll down, it fell behind the park bench. He would have picked it up rat the time, but being very thoughtful about disturbing her, he decided to wait until he had permission. to move. It seemed hours to him before she looked up, but in reality it was only ten minutes. With a satisfied sigh, she said: Now, Clii, you can talk to me if you like. What a kind crea- ture she was ! ,And so he talked and talked, but she could not get him to tell just how he happened to be in the same park with her that afternoon. n Having Y conversed some time, they decided to depart for home. They hailed the next car and were soon enjoying a cool ride. It was perhaps twenty minutes after the departure of these two interesting people when two young men came strolling along. They came up to this particular bench and sat down. But suddenly Forster, for it was our former friend, stopped and picked up something. Ho, ho, what have we here? said Bryce. We will soon see, said Frank. Turning it over he read on the silver name-piece of the music-roll: MARY C. SPAYD, 212A Parkwood Ave. TOLEDO, OHIO. Well, I wonder if this belongs to our Mary Spayd, said Frank. Thereupon he opened it and discovered numerous drawings. Looking them over he came upon one strangely familiar. A very pretty girl sitting at a desk. She was indus- triously studying a book, and looking closer he saw its name: History of the English Kings. ' Bryce gave an exclamation: Well, I do declare, if that isn't a picture of Norma Chambers, I don't know what it is! Frank was in a meditative mood. It looks as she did then, three years ago. But I couldn't say whether it looks like her now or not, he replied. Since she went to Denver I haven't heard much of her but I would like to see her,', he went on. By this time he had put back the papers and was gazing intently into space. Suddenly Bryce broke out laughing. I tell you, old boy, the hag was right 3 beware of fortune tellers hereafter. Well,', said Frank, she said I should return it but I would have known that much. See that you do, then, replied George still smiling. Meanwhile the young couple had gotten nearly to Miss Spayd's home. When she began looking for something. What are you looking after ? asked Mr. Boynton, for such was his name. Have you seen anything of my roll of drawings ? she anxiously enquired. Then he remembered very vividly where he had seen them last. He became very conscience-stricken and felt like a wretch. I-Ie looked rather blank at first and then said, O what punish- ment shall I have to endure? Yes, I dropped them under the bench on which we were sitting at the park. And with much tact he showed her how his very thought- fulness had caused her loss. But I will go right back for the roll, Mary, and will be back here before you know it. And so Cliff Boynton set out to hunt for the lost parcel after he had conducted Mary to her home. He was always rather careless and now the fact came home to him. I-Ie was a traveling agent for a large firm in Denver. He had become acquainted with Miss Spayd through their mutual friend, Norma Chambers. CHAPTER IV. It could not have been more than a half an hour after Mary reached home that she was told a gentleman wished to see her in the parlor. Upon entering she was surprised to see her old acquaintance, Frank Forster. After a pleasant greeting, Frank produced the parcel. Of' course, she was delighted. She started to smile. I wonder how Cl-, Mr. Boynton, will succeed in his search, she said. And then she related the incident to him. There is one picture I had a notion to pocket for myself, said Frank. Of course, Mary couldn't imagine wha! one. So, Frank, rather embarassed, showed it to her. It puts me in mind of old times, that's all, he said. O, does it?,' asked Miss Spayd, mischievously. Well, I have promised that to another young man-a friend of Norn1a's, Mr. Boynton. Now, Mary had promised a picture to that young man, and had been undecided which one she would give him. So, all of a sudden, she ixed on that one, because some one else desired it. O, Mary did not intend to be mean, but she had her reasons. , . Come to think of it, she said to herself, I believe he would be delighted with Norma's picture. So she stilled that small voice. She told Frank she had good news. 'Norma Chambers was coming to visit her for two months. You see,'? said she, Mr, Boynton lives in Denver, too, and often brings messages from Norma to me. . He came yesterday and Norma will be here day after tomorrow. - - ' Then they started on school topics, of the times they had then. Frank told her of his college life. But they were soon interrupted by the arrival of Mr. Boynton. Mr. Boynton, this is an old friend of mine, Mr. Forsterf Mr. Forster, allow me to present Mr. Boynton, a friend of mine and Norma's, as I was just telling you afew moments ago. - The young men shookhands. For some undefined reason, Forster did not feel very friendly to the Westerner. And Cliff Boynton was not in a very amiable mood, for his search had been in vain. - A ' Well, Miss Spayd, I have failed in my mission, he said. Yes, but I have ithere all right, and she held- it up. He looked the question he would have asked, and she proceeded to enlighten him. Then Frank rose to go. You 'must come again and renew your acquaintance with Norma, said Mary. He thanked her for the invitation and took his leave. ' As he walked along, Forster thought over many things, chief among which was, that Cliff Boynton was a lucky fellow. It did not make lzim any happier, though. By the time he reached town, he had decided not to call on Miss Spayd's visitor. I would feel out of place, he soliloquized. Therefore, when he received a neat invitation three days later to attend a small party in honor of Miss Norma Chambers, at Miss Spayd's home, he sent his regrets, on plea of business. His friend Bryce went. The next morning he asked him, in an indiierent way, how the affair went off You should have been there to see our old friend, and Miss Chambers was certainly looking her best. And Mr. Boynton from Denver is a first-rate fellow, said George. A Do you think so? said Forster, I wasn't particularly struck with him? And then he changed the conversation. , Three weeks. slipped away. Miss Spayd had seen nothing of the finder of her parcel. She teased Norma about his wanting her picture, but her friend, atsuch attacks, was very reserved. One day Mr. Boynton and the two girls started off on their wheels. They crossed the bridge at jefferson street, and were soon on the East Side. ,T , Suddenly the tire to Norma's wheel gave out. It was punc- tured. So they stopped at the nearest bicycle repair shop to have it' mended. Whom should they meet there but Frank Forster ! He was having his wheel pumped up. Of course, they were all surprised, and they cordially invited him' to accompany them on their ride, when the puncture was ixed: Now, Frank didn't know what to do or say. He wanted to go, and still he didn't. But he considered he had not acted quite right in not calling and so consented. After some delay they started. The day was a time one and the roads were in good condition. ' Mr. Boynton and Mary had considerately taken the lead. They wished to have the other two renew their acquaintance. And this they did. She told him of her western life while he interested her in college stories. . At last they reached Presque Isle and, being hungry after their ride, they had lunch. Then they went home by way of boat. U Such a beautiful sunset I Frank and Norma had gone upon the upper deck to enjoy it more fully. Frank kept wondering if he was -not monopolizing Miss Chambers, but, he got no farther than that state. By the way, said Norma, you did not say how you liked the picture of me. ' ' O, that? It was all right. I suppose Mr. Boynton has possession of it now, hasn't he ? asked Frank. . ' O, I don't know, perhaps. He has lots of things of Mary's he carries around with him. Of Mary's? Why, how is that? I -thought that'-i Norma laughed. Do you mean to say that you can't see that two and two make four ?', We used to hear that very few of us could, but now how couldyou be so dull? H But Frank couldn't tell why. He suddenly felt like a diiferent fellow. He changed the subject by asking, her a question. If you are not engaged, may I come to-morrow night? I will be at home, she replied. Now what would his friend Bryce thought had he been there ? just think-in company with a young lady a whole after- noon, and part of an evening, and boldly asking for another interview! But it is a queer world, and Forster was bashful, you know. 71 It 2 ' Professor Goodwilly. . BY GEORGE R. FUGATE. ERE was a chance to show the world he was a hero. Not that it had not always been evident to himself, but he had so long been bound down to antiquities that others had begun to almost regard him as such, one to be looked at and admired, but not to be imbued with animal spirits. So when Mr. Goodwilly heard a noise in the kitchen he welcomed it Qwith some few tremorsb as furnishing the means to gratify his ambition. He walked across the room to his cabinet of curios to take the horse- pistol, a relic of his youthful days and the Fourths of July, then he went to the window, hoping against his will that he might see a policeman. None was in sight-a most unusual thing- and Mr. Goodwilly felt a sinking in his breast. As his grasp tightened on his pistol, his heart stopped beating. What if it should be loaded! Nervously he opened the single chamber and breathed a sigh of relief as he saw it empty. For, of course, the Professor did not intend the weapon for oifense, but merely as a menace. Now he crept across to the cellar door. His hand was laid on the knob. Carefully, so carefully, did he turn it that not a creak was heard. Then he stopped to listen 5 everything was still. Not saying that he trembled, if he had, he would not have sunk in my estimation, for it was indeed a perilous undertaking the antiquarian was engaged in. For all he knew, there was a desperate rufiiian below him. Perhaps the burglar was behind the door at the foot of the stairs, perhaps even now a pistol was directed at the Professor. But, nevertheless, he stepped down carefully and slowly, step by step. He planned his course of action. He was to go down so quietly that he would not be heard g then he would go in the laundry and turn on the lights all over the cellar. This would so alarm the burglar that when a pistol was pointed at him he would at once submit. Allwent well until he reached the last step. Unfortunately u it creaked under his weight, but he darted across the narrow hall and ensconced himself behind the laundry door. ' He listened intently, and thought he heard the refrigerator door open. But no, for what would a burglar want in it? He stretched out his hand toward the electric button. But,,, thought he, if I turn on the lights now, the thief may escape before I can catch him. So once more he carefully felt his way along the hall, hugging the wall closely. I After what seemed hours he reached the door from which the sound had reached him. He stopped, heard nothingg went in and stopped again. Again no sound reached him, so he glided to the wall, reached out his hand and grasped-what? With a cry this woolly something pulled itself from the Professor's hand and Hed. The Professor started to follow it, in the opposite direction, when he remembered his all-inspiring mission and turned on the lights. He saw the refrigerator standing open, the remains of a pie scattered about the- table, and, trying to squeeze through a window, a trifle too small for his body, aflittle colored boy. Mr. Goodwilly stood dazed for a moment, but finally seized the squirming mass in the window and hauled it down, none too gently. ' . 1 Please, Mr. Goodwilly, shall I clean up the table? said the youngster standing before him, and whom Mr. Goodwilly recog- nized as the stable boy. He was a colored youth not over twelve years old, with a full-moon face and funny little 'eyebrows that accentuated his every emotion. He was rather small, and had been quite a favorite with every one in the house. By this time the Professor's anger had passed away, and the humor of the situation appealed to him forcibly. 'See here, jim, said he, what are you doing here? ' I wanted some pie, and Jane wouldn't give me any when she was baking, and so-I tore my coat, too, coming through the window, see, and he glanced at the master from under those appealing brows to see if this was having a softening eifect. Now, aren't you ashamed of yourself jim ? Awfully, and as there were signs of relenting, in the face above him, he continued, Um-m, that pie was awful good, and maybe jane won't be so stingy now. If I let you go will you ever do this again? Honest, I won't. Hope to drop dead if I do, said Jim, shame-facedly. So the Professor helped him to climb through the Window, and at the last lift slipped a dime in his pocket. J' im paused only long enough to say, Gee, Pm much obliged, and darted ofli A He was back in a moment, though, and called out, Pro- sessor, you be a good Willie, and with this parting, meant both for a compliment and additional thanks, he was gone. The professor turned out the lights and Went upstairs. He did not tell of his bravery to his colleagues. The.Disappointment of Nlammy Jane.- BY PAULINE BELLE COOLEY. STORM was brewing in the cabin of Mammy Jane. The f piclcaninnies, realizing the fact, escaped to the river for a swim, and, as she washed pots and pans, and swept the iioor of her neat cottage, Mammy delivered a long lecture to the sleek kitten that sunned itself in the doorway. Yes, she began, Mammy dun knowed dat dere was sumthin' on his mind, and evah since he came home from de North last summah he peered to want to do nothin but sit by de ribber an' dream, dream, dream. An' now he hab left his crops to a know-nothin' over-seeah, an' am gone to de North to git married. The kitten dozed peacefully by this time, and the clattering of pans drowned Mammy's continued mutterings. When her work was ended she donned her brightest kerchief and sat in the doorway, gazing absently over the beautiful helds of this modern- ized Louisiana plantation. Yet Mammy Jane could not see the beauties of the summer sunset, for her heart was filled with bit- terness. She thought of the many tourist parties that had crossed the plantation. The vision on her mind was that of haughty, sneering, blue-eyed Northern girls who, with their nasal tones, gay laughter, and saucy little black cameras, had visited her cabin by the river bank. . Lois, she murmured again. Yes, dat am de name ob de wife Marse Jerome iwill bring here. This was the last, worst stroke, for of all the hated tourists, a big, blue-eyed Lois was the most detested. For had she not plucked the cherished rose from the little pot in Mammy's own window, and did she not then take a snap-shot of Mammy jane, trembling with rage, and shak- ing her fist at the rude, amused intruder? Man1my's heart swelled almost to bursting. Again she recalled Jerome, the slender, motherless, dark-eyed boy who loved his old colored Mammy. She thought of the times when he had come to her with his boyish griefs, and had sobbed himself quiet on the ever-ready refuge of her kind old breast. Then she could see the youth who gaily returned from the Northern school, and who always made a speedy visit to her cottage. She pictured him as he now was, tall and dark, with great, expressive dark eyes and lordly manners, but with ever a kind word for the dear old colored Mammy of his childhood days. By this time tears trickled slowly down Mammy's face, and rage gave way to grief. What a change would come over the plantation when the Northern bride came ! There would be no more moonlight dances in the darkey quarters. No more would Jerome visit her little cabin, scattering shining coins to the darkies by the doorway and speaking to her with tender fondness. The sun by this time had sunk in the west, and the glad Voices of Mammy's grand-children could be heard as they leaped up from the river bank and came merrily trooping home. For the few days following, Mammyfs moodiness astonished the other darkies on the plantation, and the cause was not explained to them until the night when, with the glare of lights at the old mansion, Ierome's home-coming was announced, and a young darkey, bounding into Mammy's cabin, was promptly hushed when he volunteered a description of the new mistress. Such miserable days for Mammy ! Moodily keeping out of her young master's sight,wearing her eyes dim with weeping, and listen- ing, nightly, in a crouched position by the willows, for the voices of the happy young couple as they rowed down the placid river, Mammy's eyes would gleam with suppressed hate when the silvery laughter of Lois rang over the silent waters. Truly pathetic it seemed-the happy young couple, and the neglected, grief-stricken Mammy watchin g them forlornly. Seated in a hammock on the broad veranda of the mansion was Mammy, in her lap, gleefully clutching with its dimpled lingers the bright ends of her scarlet kerchiei is a baby girl, who gurgles and chuckles at the story that Mammy is repeating to her. You pretty lamb! she is saying, 'twas jus' dis time two yeahs ago when yo' ol' Mammy was a-sittin' a-griebin' herself 1 'cause heh little boy Jerome dun got married, an' one day when she was a-sittin' in her doah, Mister :Frome he come up with his wife, an' says he, 'Lois, dis here am Mammy Jane! An' she, yo' blessed mother, honey, she put her arms roun' my neck and kissed me an' sez, like de angel she is: ' I want you to like me an' to be good to me like you been to j'rome.' , Mammy's eyes beamed at the remembrance of that happy day, and she held baby closer. V f'Yes, Baby Lois, she added, you will hab the same blue eyes an' pretty curls an' kindly Ways dat yo' mother hab got, an' bless de Lord! you -will hab de same sweet sou1.?' . 'rn' A Highland Lover.

The Tale of Tipsey Watts. BY LAURA HICKOX. IILLUSTRATED BY CARL S. LANDGRARI T will be a new way of doing it, she said. Besides being no end of fun, he an- swered. And see here, Alice, let's not be bothered with any luggage at all. And wear the same things from one end of the month to the other? No, sir ! Well, I won't tote a valise around. We can take a trunk and have plenty of room. If we ever want to pack in a hurry we can just sling things in and save timef' a remark illustrating both the young man's foresight and his laziness. And then, Tom, I must take Tipsey, too. Think how lonely he would be, and besides, ,he ought to get a breath of his native air once more before he dies. He's not young, you know, if he is small. No, he's too experienced to be youthful. I'll furnish a bird cage for him. This conversation was delivered in low tones in Alice Bur- nett's front parlor. Then followed an animated perusal of an ocean time-table, but in the midst of it the door opened, and for some reason the time-table took refuge under the sofa, and the pair were engrossed in a discussion concerning the pickles served at a certain luncheon. Down in the cabin was the baggage of Mr, and Mrs. Thomas Watts, Manchester, England, and up on the deck of an ocean steamer bound for India, Mr. and Mrs. T. W. were waving a last farewell to the chimneys of Liverpool. . You see, Alice, I'm bound for London on a business trip. And Pm at Cousin Florence's for a week. Won't mamma be mad when she finds out the truth! She'1l probably come after me. I don't see what business that fussy preacher had in ask- X WX ll LEX 4 bA , p w I f'S?f':fs-RCE? fiiffr ing me if I had my parents' consent. Let's take Tipsey out of this cage, poor thing. Now, Tipsey was a monkey in characteristics, as Well as in physique, and no sooner had he crawled out of his foot- square cage, and had stretched himself a little, than he began to investigate. I-Ie found out where the drinking water was obtained, and he quenched his thirst every ive minutes. The passengers hastily hunted up their own private traveling cups. I-Ie tried to get into the pockets of a loud-voiced, gaudily-dressed lady, whose handkerchief was very strong of perfume that smelled like his pet kind of candy. He took exercise by jumping from one chandelier to another, in the parlors, to the terror of a fat lady who wasn't spry and knew it, and to the great amusement of general small boys, until he broke a globe and cut his tail badly 5 whereupon Alice wound a ribbon around it and tied a bow,which was the source of more pride to him than is seemly in a monkey. He slid down the brass banister by mistake once, and enjoyed the scare so much that he spent one entire morning pursuing his reiiection down the glistening pole. The captain complained. He said he could furnish someone who could shine the brass without scratching it all up. Tipsey wound his tail around and hung from everything conceivable for such use, and a great many things inconceivable. He took his afternoon siesta on the big- gest sofa in the dining-room, and shed his hairs abundantly on it. What he did in the kitchen is unknown, except that his popular- ity and the number of his visits there increased daily, and he was not on speaking terms with the head cook's pet rooster. On the passenger decks what he did not do was the unknown part of the question. Meanwhile his benefactress was taking life seriously in her QLXMH .

Tom, who was only sick the first part of the ntime, spent the last three days in amusing Alice and in shortening every so often the chain he got from the 'captain for Tipsey. India's coral strand was finally reached, and they disembarked at Bombay, with no idea Where to go next. As to this last, they- did not care for themselves, but they wished to ind a a safe place to stow ' ' Ewi- - '- 1 Tipsey and the trunk Mr. and Mrs. T. W. were waving a last fare- well tothe chimneys of Liverpool. when they did not Want them.l For the trunk this was easy enough, but as monkeys were by no means a rare article in the country, they could ind no place in which Alice could feel sure that Tipsey would ,receive fair treatment. So he went with them. For a week they had a most enjoyable time. It would not be in keeping to expect anythingelse during a honeymoon. They would go on tours of investigation from the city for two or three days at a time, never going far, but living a happy-go-lucky life, with no excitement except what Tipsey caused. One day they stopped on the wharf to see a freight vessel from England come in. The great ship slowly glided up to the landing and a few passengers stood ready to leave it. Suddenly Alice gave a gasp. Oh, Tom, look! look! What shall we do? Her skirts lifted with both hands and her nose in the air Madame Burnett was the Hrst to tread the gang-plank. After her came her maid' and her brother, a small man and completely under the control of Madame. She, the lady, was tall and fleshy, with a corn- rnanding ,air, and just now a stern resolve to carry out certain deep- laid plans. Tom hurried Alice away, only stopping to say, laughing: I won- der how much she paid them ,to let her ride on that ship. They reached their boarding- house only to iind that Madame had liked its name and had decided to stop there. A good-sized fee prompt- ed a native to bring their trunk out the back door, and, cramming the mon- key into the cage, they followed their property to another place, half a mile away. ' It doesn't matter, said Tom, calmly, if they are here. In this big place we shall proba- bly not meet them again? 1 V k, - 1-L rj, ' -fa--:f?' ' W Z ,sf X ' W , I I 17,2719 f ef f fff' lf? ,wi ! Madame Burnett was the Hrst to tread th gang' plank. But at nrst fate was against them. Madarne's stern resolve had been- taken and was going to be carried out. They saw her A trti p at every other corner. Once-she saw them, and they had a lively time getting away. She went to every English and American establishment in Bombay and inquired about them, describing them at great length and generally getting angry at the same time. It did not take her long to find out that they had been where she was then staying, but she had no clue to trace them by beyond the fact that they were in the city. Mr. and Mrs. Watts at last decided to go on as they had gone before, and proceeded to do so with perfect equanimity. But once they made a mistake and left Tipsey behind. Now, if they had known certain things they would not have done this, but they W., ffv 1 i 1 -.X Tipsey was deeply moved by the coquettish ways of one of his own race. were ignorant. Tipsey had been deeply moved by the charming and coquettish ways of one of his own race who lived near the house where they had first staid. Also he had left some choice bits of food in a little cubby-hole known only to himself. He watched his chance, and when it came, set out for the abode of his queen. Having found his fruit and divided it with her, he would have started back had not Madame Burnett just then entered the house, ,recognizedlhim at a glance, and pounced upbnxfhimy Shel was a wise woman, however, and she let him go after she hadfed himra little, and then she followed him. She found the trunk and' Tipsey's cage, and settled herself to stay in the same room- with them. . When Tom and Alice returned all they could make out from the wild gestures of the owner of the house was that something unusual was up stairs. Torn crept up on his hands and knees and peered into the room to behold his mother-in-law sound asleep on the couch. He Went down and 'called in a couple of natives, who went noiselessly in and brought out the trunk and the cage. Then the pair sought other lodgings. ' Madame Burnett awoke with a start and a sense of having slept at least twenty-four hours when it was really only two. She gazed around, collecting her thoughts, then rushed down stairs in a rage. She could learn ,nothing from the jabbering, gesticu- lating native, there. In a towering passion she trudged back and went to bed without any supper. . The next morning as she was passing the wharf she beheld a great ocean steamer just moving off Where is that steamer going? she demanded of a group of officials standing near. One of them touched his cap and answered politely: To England, Madame. Did any English people go aboard? A few, Madame. A young couple, tall man and a' lady with a brown suit on? - . ' And one trunk?

' +L-if BY KATHRYN NEWBIRT. From out of the mist of the dawning, Frornthegdream-life of untaught years With the willto 'do right, M' Whatever the iight, We stepfwith our hopes and our fears. ! Before lie the broad, boundless meadows, A I V iBehind, the wide stream of iGone:By. ' ' i'And we have bgutitovtake, As our futures we make, Those things which in front of us lie. There's no turning back for the has been, There's no groping ahead for will be. But what is will suflice for the moment, And make steps for the next height we see. We have been like a half-grown rosebud, With its petals imprisoned and bound, When they long to be free, That the whole World might see, And that praises of grace might redound. But the blush that belongs to the petal, The soft velvet that now should adorn If not left to grow on I Till their beauties are done Will be worth no more than the thorn. Have no fear that our place will be taken. A red rose does not grow on the stock Of the white. But each one to its stem Has been fitted as true as a rock. The short time we have spent together Taught us more than we thought to learn. For we learned to be just, And we learned that we must Aid the plans of our classmates, not spurn. Encouragement made us the stronger, For the friends who have honored our thought Helped our hearts to be true, And give patience its due, Though the purpose with labor was fraught. YVhen the years of our union are over, When these moments are framed in the past, The troubles will then be forgotten, But the joys will remain to the last. 'Tis the petals that make the rose-blossoms, And if one chance to wither away, Like the strain of a song The perfection is gone When one note from the rest is astray. So with us. We have tried to grow truly, To unfold a bloom worthy of praise. But no flow'r would be there If each took not the care ' To improve in the sun's healthful rays. But the blossom, no matter how perfect, Must soon part with both velvet and blush. For the iiower cannot linger forever Any more than the note of a thrush. AS the quivering, red, dying petals 'Toward their last resting places descend, As they fall to the ground To be circled around And to earth their sweet fragrance to lend S0 We part, and our paths are divided. Each is gone on his own untried Way, And each one will be lost To the remaining host Till the dawn of another day. For, unlike the petals of Bowers, Our parting is not for always, And the class-mates of 1900 Will together sing glad songs of praise.

H. C' 1.' ex - BY DAVID B. EPPSTEIN. How dear to our hearts are the scenes of our childhood, When fond recollection presents them to view. Our school days, our schoolmates, our kind-hearted teachers, And every loved spot that our infancy knew. Long indeed and winding have been the stairs that we have climbed 3 each step but another stone of knowledgeg each landing, but a new view of life. From the time we left our first school at our mother's knee, to the completion of this public school of last resort, we have ever clung together, marching side by side, .at learning's call, strangers to care and sorrow, wards to the .guardianship of America's great institution. And now that we have reached this stage of maturity, it is 'behooving that we look back through the lapse of time, and, -unveiling the once shrouded past, live again in by-gone years. It seems but yesterday that our names were nrst enrolled on that great ledger, upon which every youth and maiden in this 'independent land must early gaze, thanks to the gracious wisdom of American laws and American progress. -On that ledger was a course mapped outgfor us by wise an 'noble predecessors. A course straight and unbending, and firm as the earth itself 5 which, if well followed, certainly leads to wis- dom and knowledge. Over the first eight years of our connection with this institu- tion, let us draw a veil. The memories there clustered cannot be told in words. c - d ea' -tm Each heart contains its own treasures. Let it be a sealed bookgl D In the ninth year began a campaign bordered by steeper aqciivirigg, One beset with greater difficulties. But instructors were gathered everywhere, each extolling the virtues and grandeur' of his branch, carrying us with him by scholarly enthusiasm, transforming us from docile boys and girls into argumentive ment and women, ready to take up the thread of knowledge, and wind it on the spool of life. V r V ,I A new i era seemed opened to us, and just as the toiling' peasant, looking forward to the goal of his ambition, sows the' seeds he is to reap 5 even so have we sown and reaped our reward. We have plucked a leaf from the tree of learning g but the links themselves are as impregnable as ever. Advantages came to us. We entered a schoolblessed with an noble patronage, honored with a most glorious past and endowed with a most prophetic future. One that has grown steadily from its first inception to the present dayg and as we look about us, impressed by our past opportunities, we see at first glance only, a class worthy of its name, and transcendent beacon lights of modern superiority. Yet, in spite of all these opportunities, although our past has been bright and cheering, still the future remains as hidden, and inscrutable as ever. Our past cannot be a torch to light up- the future. The geometry of the school-room cannot determine the straighest line to success. The languages we have learned. cannot translate the unknown words, the mystic to be, may yet, speak. The rocks of geology may not be as hard as the rocks and stones that may bestrew our path. Through psychology we cannot read the minds of powerful rivals. The chemistry of atoms 'cannot analyze the motives of man. The electric spark may arouse continents, but it cannot arouse the fires of genius- within us. Our teachers, friends and advisors may lay for us the foundation of honorable accumulation, but they cannot throw' about us the tow-line of their latents. A ' Yes, indeed, our past has been inspiring, but our work has but commenced. Let us turn back and, enumerating the labors we have accomplished, see in what way our prospects have been illum- ined,'see their effect on our future progress. f i g - . , ff- '-Q T.. -If ' 'v xggjif 1 ' V i D W Mfr .rw , .

Z-1:.3' -,-1 The Class of Nineteen Hundred and One. BY LAURA HICKOX. OOKING backwards, as we always do to see things which have passed, over these three years of our High School life, what pleasant recollections we have of their events. In vacation, when there is almost nothing to remind us of school, we unconsciously regard even the daily routine as by no means so uninteresting as it seemed when going through it. First, we were Freshmen, hastening along towards Tenth street on that hot September day in 1897, and arriving there, according to that over-worked joke, at half-past seven. We crowded into the Auditorium, and were the irst time thrilled by one of those lectures whose fame had spread into the eighth grades, on character building, future careers, and strict and undi- vided attention, given by our Principal. We were calmed again by the broad grin of Professor W-d. We enjoyed the privileges of one session, and were allowed to study QQ at home in the morning. We cheerfully climbed our unvarnished stair-cases, but without the aid of the banister, on account of our dislike for splinters. Through holes in the walls we watched the rise of our new building. We wrote essays, twisted our brains and the algebra problems into a hopeless gnarl, and had dissected cats shown to us, to our'heart's content. School jokes and every other kind of fun were so mixediin with that Erst year and formed such a large part of it that it cannot help but be one of the pleasntest of our lives. As Sophomores we found ourselves marching proudly through three great entrances, gazing at the ceiling, and sliding on the slippery floors. We were not afraid, for we had to show a 'bold front to the Freshmen. Then we proceeded to the im- mense auditorium, where we visited and tried to get used to things until our Principal appeared. That year everything was new in both senses of the word. After a few weeks things were fairly regular. We had the num- bering of the rooms explained to us every day for two weeks, 'Ufor the beneht of new students. We iinally learned all the -arrangements of the building and could cram our wheels in between others without knocking a dozen over. We had a 'lawn and in the spring we had nice little railings around it which even the girls could not resist jumping over, and which :afforded resting places till the second bell rang. Our new 'building with all its accommodations was the inest of its kind -.and was worthy of our pride. Our class as it stands this year has lost many members who Qstarted in as Freshmen. Nevertheless it has gone steadily 'onward and has not become too dignified to pass by any chance 'for a good time. The Junior Class has also taken part in the Qschool social events. The,J'unior Social was held in the lower hall of the High School and was a great success. The social committee had its best efforts in lanterns and bunting on fexhibition and had procured a most perfect gypsy for us in Miss Duffy. Each person represented a geographical name, .and the guessing of these occupied part of the evening. Then we ate ices, and drank oceans of punch, till a late hour. The High School party or Junior Hop was managed by the Junior -Class and was one of the nnest parties of the year. We are at the end of our Junior year. Next September will find us in the Senior's places with the prospects of another year, --our last, before us. We mean to keep up the good record left by the other Senior classes, and to make the year pleasanter than .any of the others. 'film 1123: ia Ji gl :A ff!

N , The History of Nineteen Hundred, Two. BY W. FRANK MERRILL. HE beautiful brick campus on the boys' side of the Toledo T High School extended from the building far away to the 1- street. The massive stone walls of the school rose majestically out of the ground and towered to a certain height. It was noon. Slowly the mass of wheels separated, the stu- dents dispersed, and all was still. Occasionally a teacher Wearily wended his way to lunch. The sun shone brightly, the birds sung sweetly, and all was lovely and peaceful. The building and surroundings appeared cool and fresh. Even the Auditorium steps, upon which were seated three Sophs, seemed to whisper of a coolness which the aforesaid Sophomores found a little unpleasant. They crossed the street, and throwing themselves upon a lawn, began to talk of the out- going year, for it was June. You ought to have attended our entertainment last year, remarked joe. No, thanks, said Pickens, it wasn't very good anyway, and I had seen it before. Seen what before? asked Joe. Why, Macbeth, said Pickens, who had been lying on the grass taking a nap. I am not talking about Macbeth or Hamlet or Shake- spear or anybody else. I am talking about the social we had last year. Oh !-oh ! drawled Pickens, 318 on the Wrong side of the ledger, eh? Yes, said Joe, H1518 on the debit side and it has not been 'paid yet. Tell us about it, drawled Pickens. Let me see. It was Friday night, it was hot. Well, the only way we could get in was from the girls' side. They had lanterns strung on strings all along the hall C549 and all lit up, casting a soft, mellow light over the Freshmen Universe. On the next day, the Social Committee came down in the morning and it was raining, so they could not do anything until three o'clock. They had chicken-pie for lunch, and cake and plenty of fun. Then they hired a rig and took the furniture home. Have you gone to any of the meetings? asked joe. Yes, I have attended all of them. In the Hrst one this year We elected Burton Nickles president, Fern Sprague vice-presi- fdent, Anna Bunce is recording secretary, Herbert Eastwood is treasurer, Harry Vortriede is corresponding secretary and Robert Lane is door-keeper. Then we have a motto: 'No Palm without Labor? Well, I guess that's about all We did this year except to change the dues from 250. to I 5c. There goes the bell. I thought- The rest was lost in the shuilie. WW The Second Mile-Stone. BY AMY GRACE MAHER. After our Freshman year, what a relief is our present posi- tion! We are no longer scoffed at, no longer the merry jest of the whole school, no longer the mere infants who are to be amus- ing-not amused. Now when We, as Sophomores, and members of the illustri- ous class of nineteen hundred and two, Walk sedately up the stairs, the timid Freshmen look after us with awe-struck gaze, and are most emphatically impressed with a sense of our superiority. We laugh at all the jokes about them, and are really beginning to enjoy Senior rhetorical days. We watch the Juniors worrying over their geometry, and smile at their care-worn faces. Our mathematics don't make our lives miserable. The juniors worry about their Latin and tear their hair at the prospect of a Lit. exam. We smile, and realize how young they are for their age. Still, we ought to add that the juniors are very obliging when there is a tight place in our arithmetic, and are kind enough to help us in our Latin, by means of their fund of knowledge, although it may be small. The Seniors are too much occupied to bother us much, but they speak to us now when they meet us, and seem to think that we have at length grown old enough to be worthy of their notice. The juniors talked a great deal about Cmsar last year, and said some things behind his back that he wouldn't have been overproud to hear. We don't object to him at all ! He isn't hard for us, and we don't see why the juniors made such a fuss about him. We wonder if their reports of Ovid are also such fine examples of hyperbole. We donlt quite relish sitting in the front part of the Audi- torium, but we remember that we should not be selish, and we certainly would be selish were we to deprive the Seniors. and Juniors of the opportunity of looking at us. We are sure that the intellectual shape of our heads must inspire those behind us to do better work. We have decided to remain in the front of the Auditorium until the end of this year, just to show our unselfish dispositions. At the end of that time we'1l move back. Allin all, our year has been extremely happy, and we are quite satiied with the respect shown us. As we resign our place here to the present Freshmen, the best We can wish them is that they may do as well as we have done. We ask the world to be a little more patient, since it can have us in two more years. .4 M-nenra, - 4, ,T .4 e 4. - - 'A , 'fi 4- f-L? :ij -7, , -,,T'fg fn-SJ 1-r' 4 ,,.-.

In the first part of September, 1899, there were ninety-Eve Freshmen A, and three hundred and seventy-four Freshmen B, enrolled, making a total of four hundred and sixty-nine for the Freshman Class. The greatest dificulty Hrst experienced after the programmes were made out, seemed to be the finding of the thirty-one teachers and their class-rooms. But in a few days' time everything was running smoothly and the pupils began to feel at home in the large building. In October began the class singing lessons, every Tuesday morning, and the pupils were gratiied to hear that they sang the best in our High School. CQuery: Does Mr. Thompson tell this to each of his classes ?j QAnswer: He does.Q In the dark days of December they struggled through the iirst examinations and some of them met their Waterloo. With the month of january came the usual half-yearly promotion and then the ranks were somewhat thinned, but the larger number have held out and hope to enter the Sophomore class in September, nineteen hundred. ALTA STARRY BERTHA GRADOLPH SUSIE XVALTERS HERBERT RICHARDSON FRANCES BUNDY GEORGE TIPPETT SOCIAL DEPARTMENT Our social school days steal into memory's scenes. What charms surround the thoughts of classmates in merry groups, of friendships formed and cherished, golden visions and romantic dreams. It is but 'dtting that some few pages should recall them to our minds. Years have passed, summers and long Winters. Feelings We hold of unforgotten pleasures, of knowledge acquired, of teachers' blessed iniiuences, and acts of kindness and love-no trivial mat- ters these, for Of harmony and the deep power of joy, We see into the life of things.

We, if 9' if for our literary and social improvement, do establish this society. l Great oaks from little acorns spring, and from how small',, and, at iirst sight, unimportant, a clause hath the Demosthenian Lit-- erary Society risen ! Away back in theDark Ages,when the Seniors- were but Freshmen, and the Juniors were stowed away in the Ward schools-away back in '96, I say, some intellectual spirits gathered together to form a literary society. They determined upon the name of the irst of the greatest orators as their name,. as indeed, the nrst literary society should do. ' It is with reverence and a feeling akin to awe that we think of our quondam brothersp They say that the student of today knows more than the wise man of long agog so would it be pre- sumptuous to hope that we, at least our Seniors, speak nearly as well as did Mr. Wilson when he delivered the 'first inaugural' address, or Mr. Lemmon, when he thrilled his listeners with the- first valedictory? As we pass through the halls of time we see many events which have brushed away any monotony which might have clung to the ordinary routine. In June of the year of organization an open meeting program was delivered, and if the persons on the program were any criterion, I for one, should have been glad to listen to it. Again, in the Fall of the same year, occurred the nrst annual reunion, when the members gathered together in the Manual Training Building to enjoy the evening. For why should, they not, with a phonograph into which Mr. Gardiner had sung, Put Me off at Buffalo, to regale their ears, and a banquet looming up at the end of the sociab1e? But, alas! the feast of reason was not always served without. a hitch. For, to quote from the records of one meeting:- 'f Mr. Prentiss was repeatedly reprimanded by the President, for disturbing the peace, and as his words had no result, the President was forced to the sad necessity of iining the said Mr. Prentiss tive C55 cents. Ah, Mr. Prentiss, we all hope that you have repented, and, further, that you have paid the ive cents. But, while We are talking of money, it must be recorded, sad as is the task, that two of our members were once accused of stealing ten thousand dollars from the Eighth National Bank of Toledo, Ohio. But they were proved not guilty, thanks to the able defense of Mr. Corkery, Mr. Bittner and-part of the money ! These tribulations, however, were all forgotten in the rousing meetings and debates of those by-gone heroes. As we pass down to a period within the memory of living man, which, be it understood, is the time of our own member- ship, another trial will be found recorded on the Annals. This one had the real yellow-covered iiavor. Money box 3 a dark night, detectives galore 5 weary vigils, and-the burglars were not convicted. Thus it goes on. Doubts, disappointments, failures, new hopes, and, many times, success have been our lot. And all Demosthenians will wish with me that the arrow so propitiously launched may Hy on and on, higher and higher, with our brothers, to whom we now say Farewell, ever watching its course, until at last it stands quivering in the very center of the sun. Demosthenian Grinds. . When can their glory fade? Griffin, did you say? Oh, yes, his one fount of knowledge. ,Says he: Any carpenter can build docks, that is, of course, any carpenter who builds docks. In some meetings Gail becomes quite breezy, but he has never equaled Durand in wind. ' Wit is a dangerous weapon.-Mennel. I talk half the time to iind out my own thoughts.-Barton. Our Mutual Friend.-The Sub Critic. Like one who in a lonesome road doth walk in fear and trembling.-Hadley. The tumult reaches the stars I-Election of oiiicers. Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much, Wisdom is humble that he knows no more. -King-Schmidt. A mind for thoughts to pass into-A newly initiated Fresh- man. For late editions of philosophical volumes on the gravitation of wheelbarrows apply to-Downing. For information as to how to cause water to flow up hill, see?-Griftin. As to the rapidity with which sound and mischief travel, ask--Barton. Woman, woman, b-e-e-a-utiful woman.-Gail. The king is dead, long live the king! All hail! '01, At every word a reputation dies.-Ballou. I-Ie's armed without that's innocent within.--Peiter. Above all Greek, above all Roman fame.-Mennel. And whispering I will ne'er consent, consented.-Harmond. Anything for a quiet life.-Sawyer. Hail to the chief who in trembling advances.-Merrell. There are two great promoters of social happiness-cheerful people and people who have some reticence. How happy we ought to be with an extempore every meeting. Do not attempt grand language, a man walking on sticks is seldom graceful.-King. A sharp tongue is the only weapon that grows keener with constant use.-Towers. Work's an old-fashioned way of gettin' a liVin'.-Taylor. Gflicious, innocent, sincere.-Walker. V A politician, one that would circumvent God.-McNary. I had a thing to say.-Stine. Thinking is but an idle waste of thought.-Durand. Away with him, away with him, he speaks Latin.-Peters. What mighty contests rise from little things.-Hadley. I see the beginning of my end.-Grinin. Stands not Within the prospect of belief.-Gail. He is a faithful man and true.-Schmidt. The more thou stir it the worse it will be.-Any Freshman.

The Philalethean Literary Society was organized january 27, 1897. The charter members were thirty-eight young ladies of the Toledo High School. The added membership since organization shows a total strength of about no persons-this number includes the alumnae and honorary membership-the active enrollment now being 42, exclusively young ladies. The society was inaugurated for the purpose of literary and social improvement of its members, and had the promoters known how well their hopes would be realized-of the lasting, the beneicial influences developed as the outgrowth of such asso- ciation and attainments-they would rightly feel proud. The society motto is: Literature is the Garden of Wis- dom. The active membership is selected from among the girls in the school who have attained high standard of grade ratings for their school work, consequently it is a special privilege to be enrolled, but one to which any girl may become eligible. There is a regular corps of oiiicers, regularly elected and installed under rules for their guidance provided for in a splendid constitution. The elections are held at the last regular sessions of December and June. The regular literary programme of each stated meeting consists of a salutatory, middle and valedictory oration, one essay, one declamation, a debate and an extempore. The society in its record sparkles with the principle of progress-on the social side savoirfaircg on the scholarly side- generally helpful. The individual work -of the members is deserving of special mention. The debates, orations and essays are to be found among the best products of the High School, and in the oratorical contests of the school the Philalethean members are listed among the winners, also in the commencement pro- grammes they are assigned to the Honor list. As to results in coming years, indelibly impressed will be the many society experiences, events and incidents as they have hap- pened and have aifected each individual member. Literary attainments, the keenest pleasure of Philalethean associations, will not be forgotten by the lapse of time. Philalethean Grinds. I quoie others fo belief express myself.-Montague.

BY WILLIAM E. WICKENDEN. Doubtless there are seven persons who have a clear recollec- tion ofa cold, star-lit night in February, 1898, when with Mr. Ballou they met in the little rear room of the small church build- ing then in use by the school. These persons, who formed the nucleus of the Webster Literary Society, were Messrs. Richard Sherman, George Bryce, Vernon Maxwell, Urban Walter, Louis Englander, Harold Lawrence and Will Wickenden, the charter members. This infant organization enjoyed the high distinction of having more oflices to be hlled than members to till them, hence all the charter members at once became officers, and some one had to vote for himself. Mr. Richard Sherman became the first president, and served two terms with great efficiency. Under his inspiring leadership we undertook our journey up the hill of literary excellence, and in spite of many drawbacks and discour- agements, the society has continued its upward course with unabated zeal and spirit. At the end of the school year of 1898 the membership had reached the number of thirteen. Still under the leadership of Mr. Sherman, the society entered upon the year 1898-,99 with bright prospects before it. This year was marked by a general upbuilding and advance in the excellence of work. In this year two joint debates were carried on, one with each of the other literary societies of the school. One proved to be a victory, and the other-it was not our fault! At the close of the school year Mr. Urban Walter retired from the presidency after a very prosperous term. I-Ie was succeeded by Mr. Will Wicken- den, who still holds down the chair. The work of the present year tells its own story. No better exhibition of literary zeal can be made than that shown by the oratorical contests of the year, in which ajlarge majority of the contestants have been members The Annual Board.

Since that time it has prospered, and it is at the present time the foundation upon which the various athletic teams of the High School rely. Its authority on all ath- letic matters in the school is absolute. It elects all managers and cap- tains of the different teams, and these oiiicers are answerable to the association. All boys in the school are eligible to membership in the Athletic Association, and a fair proportion have availed themselves of the privilege. A The prospects for a successful base ball season are excellent, and it is hoped that this will compensate for the rather poor showing made by the '99 football team. For Various reasons there were three different captains of the football team, which, of itself, is enough to cripple any team. Besides this, the boys had no regular coach, and practice was irregular to such an extent that the wonder is that the team could do as well as it did. ' A bowling league was organized during the winter, and regular con- tests were held. A golf club and track team are being organized in the school, although it is now too early to say much of their accomplishments. Football Team for 1899.

Lisle-As a subject for your Valedictory I would suggest Famous Teachers I Have Met, or else a review of that ine novel, Dead Men's Shoes. Roman-As you say your voice is so weak that you cannot easily be heard, my advice is to visit a menagerie and listen to the roaring of the lions. Try and imitate their tones, and I am sure you will be greatly beneited. My Senior Girls-Whispering is very bad form. If you have something to say, say it out loud. Robert-For a graduation costume ,nothing could be more suitable than a golf suit of pepper-and-salt cloth, with which should be worn the new grass-green hose and stout russet shoes. A belt and collar of pink paune velvet, with a jabot of lace and a knot of cherry ribbon at the throat would complete a costume both simple and elegant. Carrie A.-Your suggestion was most sensible. , The grad- uation gown will do nicely for a wedding gown, and will be a souvenir of two auspicious occasions, Aunt Iemima's best wishes go with you. I should suggest to you not to stand on the corner and talk to young men. Since you live so near the school, it would be better to invite them to your house. My Senior Boys-The characters you are now forming will cling to you through life. For further information consult Foun- dations of Character, by C. G. Ballon. Chauncey A.-No, dear, I think you are altogether too young to wear long trousers. I should advise you to wait until after graduation. Oscar-I have succeeded at last in 'finding a patent which will increase the height three inches. Of course your trousers will have to be lengthened, but that will be an easy matter. judging from your picture a curling iron would greatly improve your hair. Florence Botefuhr-Take my advice and do not let him call oftenera than three times a week.. I think that a belt buckle would look better in your hair than the pin you spoke of. Hadley, 'O34-Why not cover up your frank truthfulness with a little palatablenees? - . Hattie R.-I would not wear more than one man's picture in my heart at the same time. You might put thepicturevof one of your friends in the front of your watch and the other in the back. But be careful about opening it in the presence of both. Each day I say A little prayer, And, brieiiy, this is it: Oh, Lord, The Board Will buy no chair For wearied me to sit, All five of them - Wilt thou condemn To Pluto's brimstone pit ! And' may they sit on a ragged rock, ' Quai' steins of nitric 'bock,' U Or vitriol cocktails from a crock, While scampering' imp-folk laugh and leer, This chairless Board-sans hope, sans cheer. Amiability, thy name is Duffy! - ' Do you not know I am a woman? When I think, I must speak. -Florence Winans.
