. MY SHRINK. .
There's a place of -regal beauty
Where the sunbeams never die,
. Where tne roses, mount the trellis
Of the pillars to the sky.
There flow crystal streams and fountains
Where the whitest lilies grow,
'TIs my home my sacred temple
On this common earth below.
This vain world may laud Its Ophir
With its diadems of gold,
Yet the glory of my dwelling
Human tongue. hath never told.
Love hath bullded its foundation.
While Its walls are all aglow
With that Peace which crowns the lilies
Where perennlnl waters flow.
A fair spirit dwells within it
With a chaplet on her brow;
She uplifts a golden scepter
As before her will I bow.
Her dear Hps have touched lilies
. And. hor cheeks have caught the glow.
Of the roBes on the trellis ;
Whore the softeBt zephyrs blow.
When my soul Is torn and bleeding
With the fierceness of life's fray
And I turn my weary footBteps
To my Bacred shrine to pray,-
Thore my gracious queen' awaits me
With her heart and soul aglow.
Bearing lilies wet with tear drops '
From the crystal fountain s flow.

Guard has a good sale every evening, and when anything of speo
ial interest occours like last night, the sales are only limited by
the number of papers available for that purpose, one newsboy
alone selling one hundred copies. Not until this fall was any
cftort made to sell a local paper on the streets, circulation being
confined entirely to regular home subscribers.
The shooting of Prosecutor Heney will probably have the
effect of causing the graft prosecution in San Francisco pushed
more relentlessly than ever. Public sentiment will demand the
wiping out of the gang of corruptionistst and interest in the
prosecution, which has waned of late, will be renewed by the
cold-blooded deed c this ex-convict, who was exposed while try
ing to qualify himself for a juryman during a former trial, in or
der that he might vote for acquittal.
After Peary once discovers the North Pole mind you, we
said after he is going south to find the exact location of the
South Pole. Peary is an aggressive personage, and if his ener
gies were directed in some legitimate channel he might really ac
complish something some time.
Red light is all well enough on occasion, but the country has
had quite enough of it for awhile and now is going after Thanks
giving turkey and trimmings. If you don't get busy the turkey
may roost out of your reach,
What's the matter with the original Taft man? Not more
than three hundred of them have wired application for remem
brance and pie. By the way, it is said that it was Mrs. Taft who
first picked him for president.
Hard as he tried to sidestep the expenditure, it now seems
certain that Steve Elkins will have to turn loose that million dol
lars to buy a dago prince for his daughter.
A turkey and trimmings for every Thanksgiving dinner table
is a mighty good platform. If you are not on it, get on quick, and
see that your neighbor does likewise.
Chicago is taking time by the forelock and has begun a war
on the present method of celebrating our natal day, the Fourth
of July. The idea of the people of the Windy City is to bring the
celebration down to a safe and sane basis, with the object in
view of saving the lives and limbs of the rising generation. It
$a proposed to do away with the noise and general outburst of
exuberance on that day, and to that end the committee appointed
by an organization recently perfected to campaign against what
is termed a growing evil, will probably recommend that the
size of the firecracker be reduced to the minimum, and the sale
of all high explosives eliminated. Chicago is taking the right
view of the matter and other cities should follow in her footsteps.
The present day Fourth of July celebration is an unmitigated
nuisance. ' "
1 Tho progress and development of civilization, with its new
machines, devices, tools and scientific methods of doing things
lias called into existence many new occupations unknown to our
forefathers. The latest addition was disclosed the other day,
"when a man was arrested in New York for speeding his automo
bile beyond the limit of safety, The prisoner was taken to the
nearest police station and booked in the usual way. When the
lieutenant asked the prisoner what his occupation was the man
answered, "Absolute chronic rheumatics," When asked whether
he had any other occupation, the prisoner indignantly replied:
"What else do you want? Don't you think that's enough to keep
any man busy?" He may be right, but it seems a rather unpleas
ant and unprofitable occupation.
Former Senator Spooner seems to know where the money is
that he retired from the senate to go after he's one of E. H.
Harriman's lawyers now. .
Pittsburg's latest bid for first-page space is an 18-year-old

NEWS FROM LABOR WORLD
The Southern Pacific is going-to provide all limited trains
with an outfit for pressing the wrinkled clothing of the traveler.
Tho real idea, of course, although the innovation is ostensibly
for the convenience of the public, is to lure the aforesaid public
into paying more toward the salaries of the Southern Pacifio em
ployes. Thus If you have your trouserloons pressed you will pay
the porter twenty-five cents, the same amount foryour waistcoat
and seventy-five cents for your coat, making one dollar and
twenty-five oents for the whole suit. All this in addition, to the
money he manages to take away from you for blacking your
shoes and flicking the dust from your ooat collar.
A league has been formed in China to force the merchants to
continue the boycott of Japanese goods, and it pays a reward of
$15 for the slitting of the ears of a merchant caught handljng
boycotted stuff. They don't do it just that way in this country,
but our method is almost as effective as that of he Chinese.
We simply go to work and cut off the means of livelihood of the
offender and lot him slowly starve to death unless, of course, he
decides to be a good dog. Oh, China is waking up all right and
before long she will be almost as alert as some of the so-called
civilized nations.
A Chinese millionaire from Hongkong came to this country
and brought two of his wives along to attend to his personal
comfort. But this matter of having dual helpmeets is not permit
ted in this land of tho free and home of tho trusts, even in the
case of milliona'rcs that is to say .openly and one of the
wives, the older and uglier one, was deported. Which wo cos
elude is tho way of all tho world, 'fcven a prosaic A'O'rictin
would probably send away the uglier of his two wives, presuming
ho had two, if lie hud to make a choico between them.
