Ah. long and narrow is Shadow street, Where the sunlight can never fall; Whose mile after mile can but repeat The crumbline house and broken wall; The marsh btyond and the cypress trees A misty veil and a sombre pall. Over its linchened pavements, see The people of Shadow street creep, They seem so like unto you and me, - As they stare or frown or weep; ' ' But they're something more andsome V thing less, And their eyes are dim with sleep. They think they are live and wide awake. They are busy with, dreams long . ueuu; i Their hurrying feet no progress make, And their clock tells time that has fled. I They are planning their triumphs of yesterday; -They are coining the words long said. ) They toil and moil; they rhyme and they sing; But none of, the other takes heed; Their hopes are ravens on weary wing That out of their hearts they feed. Each man and woman in twilight blur Claps tightly a mildewed weed. This corner house on the Market square Is the place where they hrst abide : They climb one morn up its creeping stair And by dusk steal out at the side. They come; pushed out of the pulsing town, ! And so into Shadow street glide. From house after house, from day to day They move when the day has paled ; Thin and grizzled and farther away, And by many a pang assailed , . . They pass at last neath they cypress trees. But they never know that they have railed. 7 ! The Criterion. SUNDAV selections. . All 'doors gladly open to a cheerful face. I You may fool the "devil, but you can't fool Grod. One who gives a false excuse for anything is going backward. The most unreasonable thing is for a man to trust reason alone. Angels hover about the Chris tian who holds to the doctrine of trust. With the heart on yesterday and the mind on to morrow, there Is little wonder that we are making such poor use of to-day. Pell. To be always finding fault with the religion of other people advertises to the "Wdrld j that you are passing through a spiritual drought. When God hides from us so much that we' would fain know, let us believe that the same love conceals, as at other times reveals, and that shadow and sun are accomplishing our growth in grace and in the knowledge and love of God. F. B. Meyer. It is an awful thought that a boy may do a wrong in an hour that will cause him sorrow all through - life; that the character of the man is in the hands of -a heedless youth. Ac tions that cannot be taken back'or re paired are very easy to do. Cling fast to the hand that is leading you, though it be in dark ness, though it be in deep waters you know whom i you have believed. Yield not for a single moment to mis- ! livings about future storms. Infinite ove, joined to infinite skill, shall pilot the way through every straight and temptation. J. Alexander.

Filipino Stronghold Captured by Ameri cans Twenty-one of the Rebels Killed and Many Wounded. ' By Telegraph to tbe Morning Star. Manila, September 2. Argogula, the most impregnable stronghold of the bands which have been destroying plantations. and levying tribute on the .people of Negros, was taken Tuesday by the Sixth infantry under Lieuten ant Colonel Byrne. The only means of reaching the town was up a perpen dicular hill, covered with dense shrub bery and a thousand feet high. The Americans accomplished this under fire, although an officer and several men were nit, and rocks were rolled down upon them. The native strength was estimated at 400. Many of the rebels were wounded and captured and twenty-one were killed. The American forces captured a quantity of stores and destroyed the fortifica tion. Shipping Commissioner Arrested. The shipping commissioner of Ma nila, a Filipino, hitherto in high stand ing, has been arrested, charged with appropriating half of the first month's salary and levying monthly thereafter an assessment upon all the native sailors shipped from this port. It is rep resented that he held a commission in tne insurgent army and was raising funds for the insurrection. But it is suspected that his operations were merely private blackmail. The in formation resulting in the arrest of the snipping commissioner reached the port captain aW chief of police through a sailor who is not in sympathy with the insurrection. The Official I Gazette. publishedJit lariac, which has been received here. contains an order by Aguinaldo assembling the Spanish civil prisoners and sick soldiers at the ports of San Fernado, Union and Dagupan. for re patriation.

The; Stan dard and Diggers hews to day re ceived a cablegram from its Johannes burg office, dated yesterday, saying that a German corps nine hundred strong, had been formed there to co operate with the Boers in the event' of war with Great Britain. The dispatch adds that the Boers could mobilize 20,000 men in three days, while the Orange Free State could muster 10,000 men in the same period. Continuing, the dispatch says; "Mr. Chamberlain's reply upholding the suzerainty of Great Britain, was re ceived by the Raad with a demonstra tion which'unmistakably indicates the intention of the Transvaal to repudiate Great Britain's pretensions. The Raad, on hearing the five-year franchise pro posal; gave every sign of strong dissent and of a determination not to go be yond'the seven year limit." it must not be forgotten that these statements come from an exclusively pro-Boer source.
