Nicean barks of yore That gently o'er a perfumed sea The weary, wayworn wanderer bere To his own native shore.On desperate seas long wont to roam | Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face, {- Thy naiad airs have brought me home To glory that was Greece And the grandeur that was Rome.Lo, in yon brilliant window niche How statuelike I see thee stand, The agate lamp within thy hand.Ah.Psyche, from the regions which Are Holy Land! \u2014Edgar Allan Poe THE KOL- IRA.The blazing sun trembled on the rim of the desert for a moment and then sank into the sand with a sudden drop, sharp and distinct as the click of a Martini- Henry.The fear of desolation was in the air.Fer three weeks the sun baked streets had _ \u201c|-echoed with the \u2018\u2018Ahi, ahi!\u2019 of the hired mourners as they hurried the swollen and purplé corpses out of the city gate and into three feet of earth just beyond.\u2018The Christian dogs will not beliave my word, but I swear to the presence that I saw it with ny own eyes, and, by Allab, 1 talk true talk.\u2019\u2019 The abu puffed a cloud of blue smoke against the lantern that flickered among the sickly trailing vines about the lattice of the veranda and shook his head slowly from side to side.\u2018The Ingeleez is fighting with Allah.The kol-ira, the black death, came straight from the hand of Allah, and these eyes saw it when jt came.Let the presence have _ .it well in his mind that it will not:depart until the word of Allah calls it away.The presence hus frowned?Let my master be not vexed at tbe word of the worm, bis servant.My eyes have seen what they have seen, and my soul knows.what it Knows, and it will not be otherwise for all the frowns on the high and serene brow of the Ingeleez bey.\u2019\u2019 \u201cYou say that you saw.it, abu?And \u2018| what did you sec?\u201d\u2019 \u201cMy eyes saw.the kol-ira coming into Aden, and I know what I know.: Allab is praised!\u201d _- For several mibutes the eyes of the abu stared.into the hookah bowl as the ember glowed and reddened with- each puff.Then he took the mouthpiece from be.| tween his teeth, rested one hand upon his knee and smoothed his beard wearily with the other.\u2018The presence wishes to know?What good will that be if his soul does not believe?Am I to turn a liar in my old age?Besides the Ingelèez has been gracious to me.1 have basked, in the light of his eyes and have smoked} many hookah pipes at his expense.So that I have dwelt in gardens of pleasure.But that is the way with the unbelievers.They come here and tbey - tear up the streets and throw much lime about and build fires in the market place to burn the refuse of the earth, and then they rub their hands and say to themselves, \u2018Mushallah, masoallah, in an hour, or a day, or a week the kol-ira shall be no more and we will laugh in the beard of Allah.\u2019 As for ide, the presence knows that I shall not turn liar at the end of my days.Another hookah?May the mercies of the presence be remembered! \"All unbelievers are mot dogs, and the Ipgeleez bey is better than some Moslems.\"\u2019 Then cime another period of silence, broken only by the gurgling of the hookah ing prayer from the platform of the \u2018mosque that stands in the market place \u2018over against the fountain that 1s now dry.The abu locked up at me and said musingly: \u2018\u2018Abu Ibn Hamish has heard the muezzin call the faithful to prayer froin childhood to old age, ninety and three: years.I shall hear him only a short time more.\u2019\u2019 He laid down the hookah mouthpiece on the mat and counted thoughtfully on bis fingers, *\u2018I shall hear him only six\u2014seven \u2014eight times more, and then\u2019\u2019\u2014 The sentence was left unfinished, and - the abu replaced the mouthpiece comnpla- cently between his teeth, purring to himself: \u2018\u2018Ishallab, ishallab, as it is written, so shall it be.I have dwelt in paradise because the presence has thrown -the light of his eyes upon me, and has caused \u2018ory hookah bowl to be filled with a free and plentiful hand.And now I will tell him a word of wisdom that he may be guided by it and sleep _the sleep of the fearless.| \u201cThe black death is going away.How does my soul know it?Did I not tell the \u2018presence that my eyes saw the death coming into Aden?lu came as an old Woman who rode in the rear of a caravan.Your servant, the worm, wags sitting where he is sitting now, smoking his hookah pipe and thinking of- many things that he had geen in the desert and upon the sea.The kahvédji\u2014may the evil eye strike hiin because of tbe many half filled hookah bowls that he\u201d has given me for just and full measure\u2014the kahvedji lay ob his bench sleeping the sleep of a donkey, and the place was einpty save for that thief and liar and unbeliever at heart and myself | who am now basking.in the radiance of the presence.\u201cIt was just before the first crowing of the cocks and the moon was pouring down white upon the desert, even as it is now, The presence may think that my eyes had closed in slumber or that I had partaken of the beavenly drug.Let not the/Ingeleez bay scoff at the words of his servant when be tells him that he was watchful and that his eyes louked rut upon the desert as they do\u2019'now.My ears heard the tinkling of camels\u2019 bells, und in a breath there passed before my eyes and up this road .that the bey is looking upon now a caravan covered with the dust of the desert and clothed in the rags of many days.Each badji sat fo bis saddle muflled to the ears in his burnoose, looking neither to the right nor to the left.There was no sound of treading, but only the tinkle of the bells, and the caravan passed straight into the market place, although the gates of the city bad long been closed upon its \u2018sleeping bappi- ness.\u201cThe presence sroiles?Let him not be in haste to take my true talk lightly.\u2018In the rear of the caravan there rode an old hanum on a camel that had nothing but bones within its skin and holes where the eyes should be.Your servant was about to wake that sleeping hound of a kahvedji\u2014on whom may the prophet send a thousand and one curses\u2014when the old hanuin raised ber arm and beckoned him to her side.The camel that bore her stopped in the middle of the road, just where the\u2019 presence sees that white stone.The hanuin\u2019s face was covered with a ragged \u201c-| Veil, and there was nothing but rags upon .\u201c| ber\u2014nothing but the rags of mahy days, as your servant lives and breathes and smokes the hookah which the bey has.commanded to be filled for me in a heaping measure.Presently she spoke: \u2018Abu Ibn 7 Re +\" 2s i Cd \" and the wheezing of the abu\u2019s breath.\u2019 8, | Presently the muezzin wailed outithe even- Hamish, de yon know me?Iam tbe kol- ira, tay do death, and I have \u2018come to carry away half of Aden.I shall be here for a month and a day, and you I shall carry away last of all.\u2019 «shen the caravan moved toward the market place, and I saw it no\u2019 more.When day broke, these ears heard the \u2018Ahi, ahi!\u2019 of the hired mourners as they carried out the first of the dead.And I am to be the last.\u2018The presence is going away?Let him, look to the steps of his feet, leat be stumble into the well in the courtyard.\u2019 \u201cWho told you that story, Jenkins?\" esked young Stover, who had come out from England\u2019 two weeks before to fight the plague.*\u2018It must be that old booby, { Ibn Hamish, Who is he anyway?\u2019 \u2018A harmless sort of idiot, who passes | for a wise man ainong his people,\u2019\u2019 replied a subaltern who was balancing bimeelf on & cCaInp stool and vainiy trying to interest bimself in a back number of the London Ties.Thereupon Stover launched oùt upon a lecture on superstition.The young sur- geun was fresh out of civilization and did not have so much as an inkling of the backward and sidewise workings of the oriental mind.- His eloquence was cut short by the appoarance of iy Arab servant, who salaamed profoundly before ne.\u2018May the presurce be not moved, to\u2018anger, but therc isa messenger at the door who craves that he may be permitted to sec the light of your eyes.\u2019 \u201cA messenger?And what does he want of me?\u201d \u201cMay I be forgiven it I speak, but the dead Gog will not tell me what ho wants.: He comes from À bu Ibn.\u2018Huish, may it please the Ingelecz bey.\u201d The abu had been taken with the plague, said the messènger, and would I be so gra- ¢ious and mesciful as to go and see him?I'threw my fatigue coat cver my arm, in anticipation of a return during the cold of the night, and followed the messenger.I found the abu where I had last seen him, sitting on the veranda of the kahvene which had been bis dwelling place apparently for years.\u2018The presence is here?May your servant be forgiven, but I wish to tell you a word and you shall sce before tomorrow\u2019s sun that I have spoken truth.Ishallah, you shall see.\u2019\u2019 \u201cWhat can I do for you, abu?The messenger tcld me that you were stricken with the plague und I came to you at once.Do stricken men smoke the hookah and make - bad jests?\u201d\u201d \u2018The presence is smiling the smile of the unbeliever, but let him be not moved to anger.My ti:ne is coming even now.Tle Ingeleez bey sees the sun?It is now the beight of a man away from the top of | \u2018the mosque.In two hours it will sink into the desert and the soul of Abu Ibn Hamish will go out with it.\u201d\u2019 : Tho abu smoothed his beard and stared into the curling smoke of the hookah with | the stare of conviction.Above the kahvenc a flock of crows flew ncisily by with a slow, boavy flight, as if the birds were \u2018 gorgod with feast of the desert.They were .coming from the south wall of -the city, where the corpses were being buried under threo feet of earth, in spite of all that we could do to prevent it.\u201cHow do I know it?\u201d mused ae abu.\u201cTho presence hus not nskea the quostion;- but I know that it is between his teeth.1 bave not turned liar in the last day of my \u201clife, and the Ingoleez bey will believe the true word which I will speak into his ear.A cup of coffee?The presence is gracious beyond the power of words to tell, and it | shall be remembered to him when he is orossing over the deep place of Gehenna on the sharp of the sword of Mohamed.\u201cMy eyes have seen the old hanum wha rode into Aden on the back of the camel that has hole where its eyes should be.My eyes saw her before the breaking of the morning and iny ears heard the words that came from her purple lips: \u2018Abu Ibn Hamish, do you know me?I am the kol- tra, the black death, and I shall pass on to Mecca after the sun sinks into the desert this night.And you shall be the last to die in Aden, because you have lived many - days and your hands are clean with the doing of muny good deeds.\u2019 \u2018The presence does not helieve me?The sun is going down even now, and you shall soe that I have spoken a true word - aye, as true as the wurd of the prophet.\u2019' I do not remember distinotly all that happened after that.It all came wit} such grewsoine suddenness.The sun har bardly gone down when the abu laid asid the mouthpiece of the hookah and con: plained of feeling cold.\u2018\u201cThe kol-ira is passing away into th: desert.\u2018I'he presence will see it no mor in Aden.\u201d Even while he was saying thesa words he:grew purple about the lips, and present ly he bent over with a sharp, asthmatic cough, as if something had kicked him i; the stomach, and before morning I hea the \u2018\u2018 Ah}, ahi!\u2019\u2019 of the hired muourners ns they hurried the corpse of Abu Ibn Ham.ish out of the city gate.Ho was the last victim of the plague in Adon.\u2014Collier\u2019's .Weekly.Speed on Typewriters.A typewriter who writes accurately from | dictation at the rate of 40 words a minute for an hour is a good operator.One who writes 50 words a minute for the same time is bettcr.One who writes 60 words à minute is excellent.One able to average 70 words, spelled and capitalized correctly, is an expert.One capable of -writ- ing 80 words under those conditions is professionally classified asa \u2018\u2018lullah.\" One sufficiently skillful to strike off 90 words, following those requirements, is a \u2018\u2018lullah XXX,\u201d and one able to dverage 100 words is n star opérator of the first quality.And there are at least three typewriters in New York city who can make a \u2018\u2018century run\u2019 of that sort in an bour.A comparatively small number of typewriters are adapted mentally and physically for very rapid work, and not 1 in 50, as operators go, is able to average 60 words a minute from unfan:iliar otter By this is meant 3.600 words, properly sposied, inoue buur.borty words a minute is probably not far from the average rate of speed in this city.\u2014 New York Sun.They Knew Ma.The train had stopped for a few minutes at a station out on the plains, and two op three barefooted little boys and girls had their backs against the depot and their fin- \u2018gers in their mouths, while they stared at the passengers.Suddenly a boy of about 10 years dashed round a corner of the station and called to \u2019his brother and sister: \u2018You, Joey!
