THE L"D VER'S ERR A N D
By Henry Wadiworth Lonjfllew
-?
TITE poem reprinted below Is an extract from "The
Courtship of Miles Standlsh." The arsument of the
first part of the long poem Is that Captain Miles
Standlsh. the commander of the military forces of
Plymouth colony, being a hardened man at arms
and unused to courting, tends his friend, young John
Alden, to plead for him wtth pretty Priscilla. Mulllns.
What follows Is best told In the poet's own words. ,
The portrait of Miles Standlsh Is shown herewith.
mw HATE been thinking all day," said gently the Puritan maiden,
'I I "Dreaming all night; and thinking'all day, of the hedgerows of Eng
J - land,
They are in blossom now, and the country is all like a garden;
Thinking of lanes and fields, and the song of the lark and the linnet,
Seeing the village street, and familiar faces of neighbors
Holne about as of old, ( and stopping to gossip together,
A. nf the nd nf th street, the vlllace church, with the ivy . 3.
& Climbing the old gray tower, and the quiet graves in the churchyard.
' T- . . ... ft A iJ A H 'T
Kind are the people l live wun, ana.aear to me my ieuwu( , .,..
x Still my heart is so sad, that I wish myself back in Old England.
You will say It is wrong, but I cannot help it: I almost
j Wish myself back in Old England, I feel so lonely and wretched."
t
Made by a good man and true, Miles Standlsh, the Captain of Plymouth!" J
' ' - ' '. ' '
"If the sxeat cantain of Plymouth is so very eager to wed me, 4
Why does he not come mmseir, ana tatte uie uoupib vu www mei
If I am not worth the wooing, I surely am not worth the winning!"
Then John Alden began explaining and smoothing the matter,
s niHTier it vnn as he went by saving the Captain was busy.
Had no time for such things; such things! the words grating harshly
'ell -on the ear of Priscilla; and swift as a, flash she mad,e answer:
Has no time for such things, as you call it, before he is married,
Would he be likely to find it, or make it, after the wedding?
That is the way with you men; you don't understand us, you cannot
When you have made up your minds, after thinking of this one and
; that one,, . . v'l.'
Choosing, selecting, rejecting, comparing one with another,
Then you make known your desire, with abrupt and sudden avowal,
Thereupon answered the youth: "Indeed 1 do not condemn you;
Stouter hearts than a woman's have quailed in this terrible winter.
' YnriiR Is tender and trusting, and needs a stronger to lean on:
So I have come to you now, with an oiler and proffer of marriage
-K

And are offended and hurt, and indignant perhaps, that a woman
f Does not respond at once to a love that she never suspected,
Does not attain at a bound the height to which you have been climbing.
-This is not tight nor Just: for surely a woman's affection
4c - Is not a thing to be asked for, and had for only the asking.
i When one is truly In love, one not only says It, but shows it. ;

Old and rough as he is; but now it never can.bappen." '
Still John Alden went on, unheeding the words of Priscilla,
Urging the suit of his friend, explaining, persuading, expanding;
But as he warmed and glowed in his imple and eloquent language,
Quite forgetful, of self, and full of' the praise of his rival,
Archly the maiden smiled, and, with eyes overrunning with laughter, .
Said, in a tremulous voice, "Why don't you speak for yourself, John?"

Churches Fail In Their Duty to Labor
By FRANCIS W. PARKER, Illinois State Senator
HE churches have failed to do their duty by the la
boring man. .THE CHUKCH OAK SOLVE THE
LABOR PROBLEM, BUT DOES M)T. The
church as such should enter politics in . the interest
of labor. The churches have catered TOO MUCH
jto capital and have thought , TOO LITTLE of the needs of the
-vcorldng classes. Union labor is justified in its bitter 'attitude toward
the churches.
- The workingman is not in need of a religion of HU3MILITY, the
basis of -which is faith. The church has no monopoly of the Ten Oom-
mandments. .The average workman practices them as carefully as:
the ordinary church member. The workingman is an ordinary hu
man being, no BETTER , than the. capitalists, and he could not be
rmuch WORSE. . . -V'1-..,', '
? n ' , 1 - ; : .-"v ,
He wants the same religion that we want, a religion tthat 'will
help in the everyday struggles and enter into the conditions of his
daily life. He does not want a fanciful thing that NO ONE can
....understand..' -;;; ( ".
How can the workingman who sees graft taking away the ben
efits of franchises and special privileges and giving them to monop
olies believe in a church which never lifts a finger to prevent these
' robberies?
The political power of the church must come back to it.
Reform Is Needed In College Athletics
By A. E. STEARNS, Principal Phillips Academy. Andover, Mass.
HAVE seen, many an athletic coach, devoting hours to
teaching his young followers how they may cleverly
disobey the rules of the game "WITHOUT RISK
OF DETECTION, and I think that I am safe in
saying that the majority of coaches are given to this
business. I have heard boys complain that they were advised that
a little profanity at times would tend to demoralize their opponents.
And from college graduates I myself have on more than one occa
sion heard some of the vilest and filthiest abuse heaped upon a player
in their charge to which it has ever been my lot to listen.
H
The senseless and disgraceful wrangles which are constantly tak
ing place between the representatives of our institutions" of learning
over the question of their athletic relations are a disgrace to the in
stitutions. THE SITUATION CALLS FOR .VIGOROUS AC
TION, FOR NECESSARY REFORM.

, t Out of 300 boys brought before me charged with
various crimes 205 were cigarette smokers. This surely goes to
prove that the boys who do not smoke do not stray into the paths
that lead to the police court. ,
PARENTS SHOULD IMPRESS ON THEIR SONS THE' EVIL OF THE
CIGARETTE HABIT, AND IT SHOULD BE TAUGHT IN THE SCHOOLS.

to prohibit tho palo of cigarette?, and I believe it will do much

NEW YORK, Dec 23 CUarles" M.
Bebwab has fllod answer to the
crons bill of tbe United Statea Ship
building company and James Smith,
Jr.; Its receiver, In tlie United States
circuit court for the Southern district of
New York. The case Is that of the
companj' and It recelrer against the
New York Security and Trust company
and Mr. Bchwab. .
v After admitting certain of the funda
mental facts which have heretofore
been established "Mr. Schwab takes up
the various allegations and charges of
the crow) bill. He say a:
"I deny that I ever wag or became
one of the promoters of the shipbuild
ing company or that I and a number
of persons associated with me acquired
the capital stock of . the Bethlehem
Steel company as averred in said cross
bilk
"I admit that the property of said
Bethlehem , Steel company was on the
12th day of August, 1902, encumbered
by a first mortgage executed by the
Bethlehem Iron company, the predeces
sor in title of said steel company, to
secure bonds Aggregating $1,351,000
bearing- interest at the rate of 5 per
cent per annum and a purchase money
mortgage executed by said steel com
pany to secure the payment of $7,500,
000 bearing interest at the rate of 6 per
cent per annum." . '
Mr. Schwab denies that he ever made
any false representations regaining the
Bethlehem Steel company and denies
that his stock on July 31, 1902, was not
worth to exceed $7,500,000.
He says: VI admit that I am the own
er' and holder of upward of $9,000,000
of the $10,000,000 of the bonds and up
ward of $9,000,000 of the $10,000,000 of
f the preferred stock and upward of $9,
000,000 of the $10,000,000 of the com
mon stock of the shipbuilding company'
issued for the stock of the steel com
pany, but I deny that any associates of
mine are the owners of the "remainder
of the preferred and common stock so
? issued for the stock of the Bethlehem
Steel company, except that I sold and
; transferred some of said bonds and
stocks to third parties."
j Mr. Schwab is of the belief that the
stocks received in exchange for the
steel 'stock did not exceed the value of
the steel stock. He denies that the
bonds were issued without considera
tion. . .
Mr. Schwab closes his defense by de
nying every charge of fraud, misdoing,
unlawful combination and confederacy
j and "humbly t prays to . be hence dis
; missed with his reasonable costs and
charges in this behalf most wrongful
ly sustained." -
' Novel Suggestion.
, The earl of Meath, a somewhat en
thusiastic British humanitarian, has
suggested to the London school author
ities that children of the elementary
trades be taken from the city and
brought up in model country villages,
the parents to pay only the bare cost of
food,' the county council footing other
expenses. He urges that , in this way
children of the very poor would have an
otherwise unobtainable chance to grow
up strong, healthy and good' citizens.
In addition, many of them would prob
ably stay n the country, thereby help
ing to repopulate the rural districts.
Told Her Ae. '
Usually only cruel necessity, would
compel an unmarried woman to ac
knowledge herself over 30 in the face
of a large public meeting. But Miss"Vida
Goldstein, a female candidate ' for the
commonwealth senate in Victoria, did
not shrink from the ordeal, for 30 is the
minimum statutory age for .an Aus
tralian senator. In the opening speech
of her campaign, delivered in Portland,
her birthplace, she contradicted the ren
port that she was only 25, and boldly
proclaimed herself 32.

O. K. Davis, former war corre
