THE KANSAS OCTOBER.
The cheeriness and charm
Of forest and of farm
Are merging into colors sad and
sober;
The hectic frondage drapes,
September yields to opulent Octo-
The cottonwoods that fringe
The streamlets take the tinge
Through opal haze the sumac bush is burning;
The lazy zephyr's tisp.
Through cornfields dry and crisp
Their fond regrets for days no more returning.
The farm-dog leaves the house
To flush the timid grouse;
The languid, steers on, blue-stem
lawn are feeding;
The evening twilight sees
The rising Pleiades,
While autumn suns are to the south
receding
To me there comes no thrill
Of looseness or chill
As leafyts fade from branches elm or oaken;
As lifelessly they hang,
To me there comes no ping.
To me no graef the falling leaves betoken.
As summer's floral gems
Bequeath us withered stems,
And autumn shattered relies dry
andumber,
So do thees, lives of ours.
Like summer leaves and flowers,
Flourish apace, and in their ripeness slumber.
REPORT OF THE QUILL CLUB.
When Mr. Edson announced the title of his paper as "A Bailad of Heart's Desire," everybody expected a satire or at least a little cleverly concealed irony. Everybody was disappointed. The bailad was filled with the spirit of knight-errantry and no one seemed to regret that, after all, it was a modern lover who had sought and found his "heart's desire." One possibly unfavorable criticism was offered—that the poem was not long enough! He read another short poem on "Smoking."
Miss Greene read a paper, "A Short Study of Elizabeth Barrett Browning."
Mr. Winton read "Friends," a short story appearing in the October Bookman and its merits and demerits were briefly discussed.

At the meeting of the Mining Engineers Tuesday, Millard Shaler occupied the time with a discussion of the lead and zinc ores or Arkansas. Mr. Shaler worked last year on the U. S. Geological Survey in Arkansas and Indian Territory and has many interesting stories.
