Oh, let me lay my head tonight upon
your breast, .
And close my eyes against the light.
I fain would rest;
I'm weary and the world looks sad; this
worldly strife
Turns me to you: mid oh, I'm glad
to bff your wife!
Though friends may fail or turn aside,
yet I have you
And In your live 1 may aliido, for
you are true
My only solace hi eaili grief and in
. despair,
iTour tenderness is my belief; it sonthos
each care.
If Joys of life could alienate this poor
: weak heart
From yours, then may no pleasure great
enough to part
Our sympathies fall to my lot. I'd e'er
remain
Bereft of friends, though truo or not,
just to retain
Tour true regard, yoiir presence bright
thro' care and strife;
And, oh! I thank'my Ood tonight, I am
yoirr wife! "
From the Book' "Heart Throbs."

SEVEN MORE OF THE
GRAFTERS ARRESTED
(By Leased Wire tp The Times.)
, Pittsburg, Pa., Marqh 23 Seven more
councllmanic. grafters, today confessed
their guilt to Judge Robert 8. Frazer,
and it Is reported that William Brand,
former president of the corrimon coun
cil, and Charles Stewart, a former
member of the select branch, have ad
ded their confessions to the others. If
Charles Stewart "comes clean" the
whole boodling systetm will have been
fully exposed. .
At noon it was announced by District
Attorney Blakeley that no more con
fessions will be received. Those caught
in the dragnet from now on will be
prosecuted to the full extent of the
law. . . ' ..
Indictments will be turned today, it
is said against the bribe-givers, the
men who tempted councilmen to sell
their honor, as well 'as the principal
bribe-takers.
' District Attorney Blakeley expects to
go into an Investigation of some mat
ters which may Involve some of the
present members of councils. He an
nounces that rf anything conies to his
notice involving the present councils he
will look Into it.
A large audience was in court tills
morning to hear the confessions of the
men brought in and the evidence given
was sensational.
Joseph C. Wasson, who last week
started on his sentence was brought
from tlie penitentiary and In the office
of District Attorney. Hlakehy made a
complete statement of his connection
with and knowledge of municipal cor
ruption. . In every particular he cor
roborated the confession of John F.
Klein. His story details the actions of
the men higher up and for the first
time introduces tlie names of men Into
(he case who have never been publicly
privately known to have connec
tion- with the tale of Pittsburg's- dis
grace. John F. Klein -litis supplemented his
first confession, and names of five
prominent Pittsburgers who acted for
the banks in the payment of the bribe
money for the passage of the deposi
tories ordinance. These "men' are a
bank president, a real estate dealer.
manufacturer pnd bank directors.
and two-relatives of the latter indi
vidual. .
Much of this new material will be
given to the grand jury and some of it
so startlingand opens up so many
leads that detectives are searching to
day for corroborative evidence.
While District Attorney Blakeley does
not promise immunity to the big men
the-bankers and other outsiders who
nipted the council men to sin he
lot s say that if they come forward and
confess their , crimes he will ask the
court to take into consideration .their
irMon.
When the bars finally close every man
on tile outside will have to fight to
keep out of prison. The trial list for
next Monday will contain the first of
tile eases.
