Too ng Have sloth and doubt and treason bidden us be What Cromwell’s England was not when the sea To him bore witne: strong She stood—a commonweal that brooked no wrong From foes less vile than men, like wolves set free, Whose war is waved, where none may fight or flee, With women and with weanlings. and song Lack utterance now for loathing since we hear Foul tongues that blacken God's dishon- ored name, With prayed turned curses praise found shame, Deny the truth whose witness now draws near.

ADMIRAL DEWEY IS IN HIS NATIVE STATE Bonfires Blaze on the Mountain Peaks and the People Welcome the Re- turning Hero. HELBURNE, Vt., Oct. 10.—Admiral Dewey is home at last and Is happy to be within the shadow of the Green Mountains and beside the water of Lake Champlain, away from the noise and bustle that have filled his ears since his flagship, the Olympla, came In sight of Sandy Hook. The fact that the ad- miral was really in Vermont was signaled to-night on all mountain peaks by bonfires and electric searchlights from one end of the State to the other. Admiral Dewey is the guest of Dr. Seward Webb at his country residence, Shelburne farm, and will not become the State’s guest until Thursday at the capital, Montpellier. He came here on a special train from New York City this morning, occupying Dr. Webb's magnificent car, the Elsmere. In the party were the admiral and his son, Dr. Webb, Flag Lieutenant Brumby, Governor Smith of Vermont and several railway officfals. While in New York State Admiral Dewey remained within the car chatting with the others of the party. But after crossing the Vermont line, above White Hall, the admiral seemed to grow a little nervous, spoke of his home-coming repeatedly and went out on the rear platform, although the car was an observatory car, to view the scenery. He seemed to be very happy and to those who were around him it ap- peared almost as if the admiral had had a touch of homesickness. As the train ncared Shelburne the admiral watched the changing scenery intently. Here and there a flag was seen, but it Is nature that has done the lavish painting on this great occasion, for the Vermont woods are one mass of autumn color. When the train pulled into Shelburne the villagers and folks from the surrounding towns, even as far Away as Burlington, had e up a crowd of nearly 3000. The en- gine stopped just at the station, so that the rear car, the Elsmere, was abreast of a little grass plat down the track. When the train stopped Admiral Dewey stood upon the rear platform. Preceded by Dr. Webb, he walked across the lawn, where an open landau, drawn by two black horses, was in waiting. As the admiral walked across the lawn a band from Burlington played “Under the Double Eagle,” a selection made at the special request of the admiral. As Admiral Dewey stepped into the carriage a salute of seventeen guns was fired from behind a mass of shrubbery near by. Admiral Dewey remained erect In the carriage with hat and gloves In hand, bowing and smiling to the peopl® around him. He was dressed in a gray cutaway suit and wore a silk hat. Dr. Webb handed In the admiral's son, who took a seat. Then the crowd of eager people closed aroind the carrfage until the admiral looked into a sea of faces. Just at the steps of the carriage stood a man in working clothes, Michael McKenzie of this oity, noticeable becanse of his height. Suddenly McKenzie threw his cap into the air and yelled: ‘“Let's give three cheers for Admiral Dewey, the hero of Manila.”” The cheers were given. The admiral stared, looked wonderingly at the man, dropped his hat and gloves and then impulsively shook McKenzie's hand, which was still in the air after tossing his hat. Instantly the hands of the crowd were outstretched toward the carriage, but Admiral Dewey started back in fear, drew his hand toward his body and said: "“No, no, I can’t do that; my hands are very sore; too sore for that.” Bowing again and speaking almost inaudibly an expression of thanks he sat down. The crowd drew back a little, Lieutenant Brumby and Dr. Webb took their seats and the carriage passed out of the station grounds. Along the road were drawn up 200 school children, each with a flag and head- ed by their teacher. At a signal the children sang a parody on “Yankee Doodle Dandy,” beginning: “Yankee Dewey went to sea.” The movement of the car- rlage was so timed that it reached the end of the line just as the chorus was reached and the admiral, who had stood up in passing, bowed his acknowledg- ments.” The horses were then whipped up and the admiral was driven to Shel- burne Hpuse at Shelburne farm, three miles away. In the carriages which fol- lowed were other members of the party with the admiral's Chinese valet on the box with the driver of the second carriage.
