At the same instant Attorney General AYiekorshani,
Senators Lodge, Nicholas Lougworth and other administra
tion leaders, denounced the insurgents. Mr. "Wickorsham
declared the time of running with the hares is over. Treas

Senator Beveridge has thrown dowai the gauntlet to
stand-patters and in impassioned words declared "By this
sign, revolt, we conquer." The coming battle is not so
much between political parties as such, as between the
rights ot the people and the powers of .pillage.
To this President Taft has replied that while "no man
has the right to read another out of the republican party,
he reads himself out if disloyal." And plainly speaking,
the insurgents are disloyal and in the executive's mind,
have read themselves out of the party.
Most of the regulars seem to prefer democratic success
to insurgent victoiV, hence the prospect is for a democrat
ic house. But the arrival of Bwano Tumba mav unite the
warring factions, or split them wider open and they may
march to victory under his banner.
The contest will be an interesting one to watch and the
developments of the next few months will be awaited with
interest.

Man has reached out with fingers of copper and seized
upon the very power that holds the stars in jplace.
This mighty energy, yclept electricit', unknown, unin
terpreted, unseen, has been set a thousand tasks in home
and ottice, factory and mill, nunc aud railroad tasks
which are as nothing to its giant strength. Eire and wa
ter, wind and wave, all have been harnessed and their en
ergy changed into electricity. When this great planet
daily spins, carrying us into the grim darkness away from
the sun, electricity is summoned to give us light. When
yearly the earth tips us into the frigid ether out of line
with our solar system electricity awaits but the pressure
of a finger to give us heat.
Mythology, the very poetry of imagination, pales into
insignificance before the marvels which electricity has
wrought. A flash and our messages cross the seas: with
the speed of the very lightning our voices span the con
tinents; great trains appear and disappear like meteors
through the night, bringing together the east and the west,
the north and the'south; mighty ships defy the wide, wind-
tossed waters and broad pinions of canvas conquer the very
an? which shrouds the spuming earth.
Weak, puny, ephemeral, compared with the life of the
planet, man comes, studies, labors, goes, but ever leaves
behind in books the shc'll-like record of his knowledge upon
the coral bank of time until, some day far in the future,
scientists shall reach with knowledge swift and sure into
the great universe far beyond our ken and read there the
secret of electricity.
Coal burns and is gone, steam condenses and is once more
water; gas dissipates and is lost forever; water flows back
to the sea and must be raised particle by particle if it would
turn a wheel again, but the power which whirls the giant
electric motor rushes out and" away on its circular path,
nothing lost, nothing consumedcome out of nothing, gone
back to naught. It flows into the mills and does the work
of 'millions of horses and rushes out none the loser for all
this energy expended. Thousands of miles a second it
pours from the powerful generators and equally as fast it
returns when its task is done.
Faster than the very planets whirl, more powerful than
all the forces of wind and water combined, large as the very
univeise, still it halts at the mere beckoning of a finger to
please a lady's whim. Great enough to combine its forces
and destroy the very earth, still it obeys the commands of
a tiny human and performs tasks far beyond the scope of
any other force or power. Now it drapes in banners of
glorious, radiant, chromatic light, the glistening fields of
Arctic ice and snow, and even while these magnificent au
roras play about tho polar caps the same force is busy
lighting the humblest hamkt and the homes of millions of
men who do not understand.
In its great nebula furnace in the heavens stars are
made anew born amid dazzling light and terrific heat.
) TTUCIl net contain the lite, each work

And all tho planet laws are In each dew
drop pearled.

When I saw swtet Nelly home.
How I blessed tho August evening;
When I saw sweet Nelly home.

O'er her brow as white as snow.
And her cheek the crimson sunset
Scarcely bad a warmer glow.

White teeth flashed like ocean foam.
All I marked with pulses throbbing
Aa I saw sweet Nelly home.
When the autumn tinged the greenwood.
Turning all the leaves to gold.
In tho lawn by alders shaded,
I my love to Nelly told.
As we stood together, gaslng
On the star epancltd dome,
How I blessed the August evening
When I saw sweet Nelly home!

Furrows steal upon ray brow.

Closer to my bosom come.
Tell me, dost thou still remember

-MERRY CHRISTMAS,

N the rush of esrly morning.
When the red burns through
gray
And the wintry world Ilea waiting
For tho glory of the day.
Then we hear a fitful rustling
Just without upon the stair.
See two small white phantoms coming.
Catch the gleam of sunny hair,
Are they Christmas fairies stealing
Rows of Utile socks to fill?
Are they angels Boating hither
With their mesMtre of good wlllT
What great spells are these elves wearing
As like larks they chirp and sling T
Are these palms of peace from heaven
That the lovely spirits bring?
Rosy feet upon the threshold.
Eager faces petplng through.
With the first red rays of sunshine.
Chanting cherubs como In view.
Ulstlctoo and gleaming hotly.
Symbols of a blessed day,.
In their chubby hands they carry,
Streaming all along the way.
Well we know them, never weary
Of their Innocent surprise.
Waiting, watching, listening always.
With full heart and tender eyes.
While our little household angels
White and golden In the sun,
Greet us with the sweet old welcome

"Whero are you going, my pretty

as follows:
A maiden chanced on sunny day
To cross the field where 1 raked the hay.
Her cheeks were rosy, her hair was 'brown,
And she looked a queen In her russet
gown.
"Where are you golngT" I asked the lane.
"To buy some gumdrope. Please let me

Bo I stood aside, and she went her way,
Out I often think of that sunny day
And that queenly girl with hair of brown
Who charmed me so In her russet gown.
