I lore thee, sweet land, ot the gold and. the gleam;
With thy peaks rer pnrple.thy ralleya all. dream;
: Where the. gardens of roses Trare 'bright in the sun.
And the mockingbird's song Is forerer begun; " '
Where the pine and the hemlock are 'stateliest grown.
And the breath of the myrtle forerer is blown;
Where the flowers ,un gathered are bright on the sod,
And the mountains are great as the patience of God;
Where the soft winds are music through lattice and grove,
And the lutes ever throb to the pulses of love.
' How restful thy light and how balmy thy air.
As soft on the cheek aa an unspoken prayer;
How lovely thy clusters, thy fruit-folded tree.
With thy brow in the dawn and thy feet in the sea;
How radiant thy fountains, how flashing thy waters; '
; How burning thy romance and how lovely thy daughters,
Whose hearts are as pure and whose, bosoms are fair
v As the bloom of the cherry which jests on "their hair.
Here the song of the singer Is wildest Of note,
And the Children of Beauty are fairest of throat,
- Oh, here would I dwell tilf I sink to repose.
Like the hands of the night which shut" gently the rose,
And soft as a' hue fading out of the west
Be folded for aye in the sweetness of rest.

two administration candidates to
go before the voters in Ohio and
it may have been thought advis
able Mto get Mr. Thompson out of
the country." Both Ohio senators
protested that no such purpose
figured in the selection.
Senator King; democrat, Utah,
suggested that the purpose of the
Thompson Investigation more
likely was to determine "how
much farther we can exploit the
Filipinos."
It was conceded by Senator
Harrison that many explanations
had been made, 'some saying it
might be a reflection on General
Wood and others that the presi
dent, still had confidence in the
general and wanted to reassure
the country by exonerating him
after an investigation.

Possible Eruption of Mount
McKinley to Be Investigated
ANCHORAGE, Alaska. Alex
Liska, Alaska guide and moun
tain climber, believes it possible
that Mt. McKinley peak may be
in active volcanic eruption. To
find out he plans to ascend it,
following the route taken by the
late Archdeacon Hudson Stuck,
who in 1913 scaled the heights,
approaching from the Northeast.
Stuck described the crest of the
mountain as containing a crater
like snow basin about twenty-five
by sixty feet in dimension. He
made his trip in company with
Harry P. Karstens, Robert G.
Tatum, a missionary, a thiry vet
eran of the Klondike, and three
Indian boys. On the summit.
reached June7, the Instrument
reading disclosed the peak to be
20,300 feet above sea level.
The stuck expedition made its
start March 17. nearly three
months being required for the as
cent. Proceeding by dog team
from Nenana. a month later, camp
was established 4,000 feet up at
Muldow glacier. This was twen
ty miles from the top. The re
mainder of the trip was more dif
ficult, the greatest obstacle being
a 'steep ridge between the lower
and upper glacial floors.
The spectacular eruptions of
subterranean forces in the North
in recent years, bringing into be
ing the Valley of Ten Thousand
smokes and other natural phen
omena, lends interest to the undertaking.
