Resignedly beneath the sky
Th® melancholy waters lie.
So blend the turrets and shadows
there
E
No rays from the holy heaven com*
down
On the long night-time of that town;
But light from out the lurid sea
Streams up the turrets silently,
Gleams up the pinnacles far and free:
Up domes, up spires, up kingly halls,
Up fanes, up Babylon-like walls,
Up shadowy long-forgotten bowers
Of sculptured ivy and stone flowers,
Up many and many a marvelous shrine
Whose wreathed friezes intertwine
The viol, the violet, and the vine.
IO, Death has reared himself a
throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim West,
I Where the good and the bad
and the worst and the best ,
Have gone to their eternal rest.
Their shrines and palaces and tower*
(Time-eaten towers that tremble not)
Resemble nothing that is ours.
Around, by lifting winds forgot.
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie.
That all seem pendulous in air.
While from a proud tower in th*
town
Death looks gigantically down.
But lo, a stir is in the air!
The wave—there is a movement there!
As if the towers had thrust aside,
In slightly sinking, the dull tide;
As if their tops had feebly given
A void within the filmy Heaven!
The waves have now a redder glow,
.The hours are breathing faint and low;
And when, amid no earthly moans,
Down, down that town shall settle
hence,
Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
Shall do it reverence.
There open fanes and gaping graves
Yawn level with the luminous waves;
But not the riches there that lie
In each idol’s diamond eye,—
Not the gayly-jeweled dead,
Tempt the waters from their bed;
For no ripples curl, alas,
Along that wilderness of glass;
No Swellings tell that winds may b*
Upon some far-off happier sea;
No heavings hint that winds hav*
been
On seas less hideously serene!

STRANGER THAN FICTION.
Honey Grove Signal.
A marvelous case of punishment
earth for the sins of the flesh occurred in
Drynor township, in this county, today.
Twenty years ago Henry Zeigland, then
a handsome, wealthy young man, jilted
beautiful Maysie Tichnor, to whom he
was engaged to be married, and the girl,
in a fit of despondency, committed sui-
cide. Her brother, Filford, enraged at the
heartlessness of Zeigland, went out to his
farm with an old-fashioned army musket,
which carried a large, peculiar bullet.
The ball grazed Zeigland’s left temple
and burled itself in a tree near by. Zeig-
land fell to the ground, and Tichnor,
thinking he had killed him, immediately
took his own life. Zeigland was seriously
hurt. He soon recovered fully, married
a wealthy widow and prospered wonder-
fully in his worldly affairs. Today he and
his eldest son cut down the tree in which
Tichnor’s bullet had buried itself, sawed
it Into cordwood lengths and attempted to
split it. The logs were so tough that the
axes and wedges had no effect upon them
and, therefore, holes were bored into the
center, small charges of dynamite were
inserted, and in this manner the logs were
split apart. The pieces of timber did not
fly about much under the force of the ex-
plosions, so the men stood about 50 feet
When the section of the tree
which for 20 years had held the bullet
fired by young Tichnor was blown open,
the charge of dynamite near the bullet
blew out the leaden ball, which, flying
across the short intervening space, found
the mark it had sought 20 years before,
penetrated the temple of Henry Zeigland
and caused instant death. All that is
left of Maysie Tichnor and her frenzied
brother has molded to dust in their lonely
tombs. But the bullet that was to have
avenged her wrongs finally did its work.
An .inter-
urban electric line between the two cities
has passed beyond the organization stage,
and if control of the passenger, express
and mail business is considered worth
holding, steps must be taken to meet or
circumvent the proposed cheap electric
competition, and the instrument

there is little doubt but that the next few
The fact that a number of large railway
systems have seriously begun the use of/
motor cars for passenger service may be
taken as a straw indicating what may
prove to be a rvolution in the manner of
handling passenger traffic between points
located close together.
It has not been long since th® New York
Central railway found it more economical
to use electrical power than .steam in the
moving of freight trains, and while
difficulties have attended th

a useful and material way. Originally in-
tended and still largely used as a means
for affording pleasure, it has been chaper-
oned and popularized until in some cities
it vies with the electric car as a passen-
ger conveyance. Railway men, ever alert
as to what may affect their interests,
foresaw possibilities in
years will witness some remarkable
changes in the manner of moving the traf-
fic of the country, both passenger and
freight. The mind of man seems never
content with even great achievements; ho
places his ideals highland having attained
unto that eminence, like the man crossing
over a mountain range, his mental eyes
behold a peak yet higher than the one unto
which he has climbed and His ambition
spurs him to loftier heights and nobler
attainments.
