Hut see! the hopeless walls divide; The waste grows green; the way is wide And plain, which I had groping sought. Tis clearer now in Hazramaut. In Hazramaut how still the airl Kept >se and ealm are everywhere. No early caroling bird or late Besets the ear importunate. I radiate silence tvs I go; As I approach men whisper low.

Safety and strength on every hand! The staff that stays nie in the way, The rod that smites me when I stray! Sad heart take courage! There is naught To lack or fear in Hazramaut. In Hazramaut is best of cheer, There comes my soul's beloved near. In that still land I list to him; I see him when the light is dim. Haste not, sweet, serious twilight hour!

BODWELL’S STUB PEN. Did Mr. Blaine Tell Kim to Uee it on the Quack Doctor Bill 1 A Portland Me., dispatch to the New York World says: The Maine Medical Association, which has been in session here, has taken up for dis cussion the veto of what is called the “Quack Doctor bill,” which was killed at the last session of the Legislature by Gov. Bodwell. For several years the physicians in this State have been trying to have a law passed requiring all doctors to furnish diplomas of graduation from some medic al institution, and then be registered. At the last session of the Legislature the Medi cal Association succeeded in getting the bill through, and then a committee of the physi cians called on Gov. Bodwell and asked him if he would sign it. He replied that he had himself long been of the opinion that a law should bo passed to shut out quacks and herb doctors from practising in Maine, (kiv. Bodwell said that he would sign the bill, which he did. and sent it to the Secre tary of State. The bill had not been in the Secretary’s office more than twenty-four hours when some body noticed that the signature of the Governor had been erased by drawing a coarse stub pen through it. A number of well-known medical men who were in Augusta called on Gov. Bodwell to ask what it meant. In reply he simply said that he had signed the bill and thon on second thought recalled it from the Secretary and vetoed it. They asked him why he did this after assuring them that he thoroughly fa vored the bill, and received no answer ex cept that on mature consideration he had concluded to erase liis name. This killed the bill, and the document is now to be seen at the State House with the name “J. R. Bod woll'’ written in a bold hand and a black pen mark through it. The members of the medical profession were highly indignant and began an investi gation to ascertain why the Governor changed his mind. Upon inquiry it was found that the "Quack Doctor’s”- bill came up while Mr. Blaine was away from home for a day or two. When he returned to Augusta and read in the Kennebec Journal the report of the doings of the Legislature he saw that the Registration bill had passed both houses and had gone to the Governor. He at once sent for Gov. Bodwell and told him that he must not sign the bill. A Portland physician, who carefully in vestigated the matter, told the correspon dent that he knew the following conversa tion then took place: “But I have already signed the bill,” re plied Gov. Bodwell. “Then take your name off from it,” Mr. Blaine said. “But I have sent it t-o the Secretary of State and several men interested in the bill have seen it.” “That makes no difference. You must recall the bill and draw your pen through it.” After some opposition to this course, Gov. Bodwell promised to do so, and next day sent for the bill, erased his signature and re turned it, vetoed. As soon as this action was made known it created much talk. Hundreds of people went to the State House to see if the facts were true and to get a view of the bill with the erased signature appended. As an outcome of the affair Gov. Bodwell was severely criticized, and Mr. Blaine has earned the title of “Governor.” Among the physicians and the Democrats he is known as “Governor” Bluine. - The correspondent who was recently in Augusta saw the famous bill with the erased signature and met Gov. Bodwell. In answer to the question as to why he signed the bill and then vetoed it he said: “After siguing the bill I was called upon by several gentlemen who expressed strong disapproval of the act, aud I concluded to change ray action.” The reason given for Mr. Blaine’s anxiety to have the bill killed is said to be that it would personally affect him. As is already well known, he is in the habit of having a doctor attend him frequently with massage treatment. This doctor lives in Boston, but is not a graduate of any medical institution within the meiuiing of the Registration act, which so narrowly escaiied becoming a law. At Mr. Blaine’s bidding he is in the habit of coming down from Boston and giving the former medicated laths, and what Mr. Bluine calls “rubbings.” Had the law passed it would have shut him out from practising in Maine and would deprive Mr. Blaine of the treatment. For those reasons, it is said on good authority, Mr. Blaine induced Gov. Budwell to veto the bill. His influence with the Governor is well known. Mr. Bluine took an uctivo interest in the last, election, mid Bodwell was his selection for Governor. Since the unusual action of Gov. Bod well in relation to the “Quack Doctor bill,” the medical fraternity have been bestir ring themselves to see a way out of the difficulty. Judge 0. W. Goddard, a prominent Port land lawyer, and also Professor of Medical Jurisprudence in Bowdoin College, was en gaged as counsel, and expressed the opinion that the bill had become a law the instant the signature of the Governor was append ed. When the bill left his bands it was a law, Judge Goddard holds, and neither Gov. Bodwell nor anybody pise could affect its validity by drawing a pen through the signature. At the mstanoo of the Mu ino Medical Association, Judge Goddard went to Augusta to investigate the Legislative rec ords, und found that the bill hail been en tered officially os approved and then an 'erasure had been made. The following is the evidence of the mutilation of the State records: Toward the latter part of the look, immediately after the line devoted to :.ll No. p.M, appears an erasure nmjarently Wle by a sharp knife, leaving the figure Uo” vituhy dajscemiblo. In the second column the words “An act to regulate the practice of medicine” and in the third column the words and figures “March lti” are erased. In the fourth column there is another similar erasure, leaving the words and figures “March IT” faultily visible. The number of the next bill on the following 1 lie is 425. No other erasure appeal's in the blotter. On the cover of the register is a gilt title. “Titles of Acts.” The book is a register of acts approved by the Governor. Its pages contain only three columns first, the number of the act in figures; second, its title; third, the date of its ap proval. * Near the end of the register, at the bot tom of tiie left-hand page, is the entry of ’ No. 421, with title and dateol' approval. I his act, numbered in the register 421. is the same act which is entered in the blotter as Bili No. 424. On the top of the succeeding ruht-hand page appeal's the entry of Act No. 422, with its title and the date of its approval. That act, numbered in the register 422, is the same act which is entered without erasure hi the blotter as Bill No. 435. Between the two entries 421 and 422 in the register there is no erasure; neither is there any entry of the act to regulate the practice of medicine, but there is evidence of the tearing out of a leaf, the mutilation of the register revealing a narrow, ragged margin close to the binding. It is apparent from inspection that the partially erased line in the blotter originally read thus: "425. An act to regulate the practice of medicine: March Hi, March 17, aud it would seem that upon one side of the leaf which has been torn from the register, or “titles of acts," there must have originally been re corded at the top of the page the following entry: .‘422. An act to regulate the practice of medicine, March 17. ’ In his report to the Medical Association, Ju ice Goddard holds that: “First, the bill was approved; second, sent to the See. etary of State; third, the mutila tions of the lawks in the State Department and the erasures of the entries which re corded the fact and date of the Governor’s aprroval of said act, and its deposit in said department as a public law were unauthoriz ed by the Governor and were accomplished without his knowledge aud are of no effect to invalidate, repeal or nullify the same; fourth, that tlie bill was a law when the mutilation was done. ” In view of this report the committee ap pointed to investigate the matter this after noi n presented the following remarkable re solutions: ' “Resolved , That, in the opinion of this association, the Governor, by abstracting the registration act from the statutes of this State, has violated his oath of office, which requires him to uphold and execute rather than to destroy the laws. “ Resolved , That his refusal to submit the question of the legality of his performance to the Supreme Court, knowing that no other man could obtain its opinion on the matter during the present administration, showing the indefensibility of his at titude, and that he displays the dis position of a despot or the scurrility of a pusii .animous agent of unscrupulous political masters. “ Resolved , That this body looks with great alarm upon the effort of our Chief Magistrate to defeat the will of the people bv attempting to overthro .v a stutute whatever opinion may be entertained by him or his advisers.” Strong speeches were made by many prominent physicians against Gov. Bodwell and frequent allusions were made to Blaine's hand in the affair. It was Judge Goddard’s aim to carry the matter to the Supreme Court, but Qov. Bodwell’s refusal to allow this precludes it. Some of the old physicians who have never been interested in politics say that if Gov. Bodwell ever becomes a candidate for any office again they will leave their practice and stump the State against him and Blaine. The probability is that Gov. Bodwell’s devotion to Blaine will end his political career. A CONVERT TO BUDDHA. The Cause of a Divorce Suit. From the Baltimore American. Alice C. Salter, through John G. Mitchell, filed a bill in the City Circuit Court yester day, pray in o u vorce from her husband, Ge< rge W. Salter, to whom she was married Ai ril 4,1883, at St. Luke’s P. E. Church. The oil, aliege-i un it axter the marriage Salter tcok his wife to St. Louis, Mo., where he mo\ ed irorn one boarding-house to another, until Ju y, 1883, when they went to New York city f< r one week, and then he took her home to Virginia They afterward lived in Brooklyn, from October, 1884, to May, 1885, and the wife then came to Baltimore. She charges ttfcit Salter is a fanatic on tl.e übject of mind cures and Buddhism, and tuat he says ne is studying to become a Buddhist priest, as that is the only true religion, and tnat he has sought to press that belief upon her. Further, that Salter has other vagaries that unfit him for any kind of business. In conversation with a reporter last night, Mrs. Salter said she was guided in her action by her solicitude for her little girl, whom she wished to remove from the influence of her husband’s queer ideas. “Besides being a religious fanatic,” she continued, "Mr. Salter is an advocate of the mind cure theory, which he is now regularly practicing in Brooklyn. Before I married him I knew him as a great temperance leader and as an exemplary young man, in the employ of a leading dry goods house in this city. In St. Louis, Chicago and Brooklyn I suppose he must have had eight or ten different positions in half as many years. He lost most of his places by inattention to duty and the absorptiou of his mind in whatever ‘ism’ there happened to be going around at the time. He had a perfect mania for reading and arguing points advanced by cranks of almost every description. Upon for-akiag the temper ance banner, he took up the mind-cure theory, which he afterward tried upon me during a spell of sickness. The test was that I must imagine myself well, and I would get well. His plan might work where the complaint is some trivial illness, but where a person has a chronic affection or is in danger of death, I think it is folly to experiment in any such theory. He also tried the euro on my child when she was sick, but it failed. He became proficient iu the mind-cure business in a college in Boston, where he attended a course of lectures, and read exteusively on the subject. It was iu the midst of this hobby that a Buddhist priest arrived in New \ ork, and he became wild over him. He attended his lectures, studied his doctrine, and then embraced his religion. He persuaded me by every tneaus in his power to i< in the religion, but, of course, I refused. He also adopted the Buddhist diet, which consists of nothing but vegetables and fish—'neat of every description being barred from the table. His explanation of this ethereal menu was that it was more like unto the spirit diet and was, tin refore, better calculated to draw the two into closer communion. Al of this sort of thing made me shudder for tho future of my child, and resolved me to apply for a divorce. Mr. Salter, as vet, knows nothing of my action, But Isupposi he will soon hear of it." “Do you anticipate any opposition from him l*’ “I think at first ho will fret about it, but it is likely he will finally withdraw all ob stacles.” , “Has he ever asked you to return to him, or does he ever write your “Ho visited me some time ago, when I was living in tho country with my father, hut he did not ask mo to go back to Brook lyn with him when lie returned.

THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, JUNE 19. 1887-TWELVE PAGES., “CROCKIE BALDWIN.” A Venerable Bird With an Interesting History. From the Philadelphia Record. There is always a cordial “How d’ye do!” and a polite “Good-by,” for the visitors to the bird-houses in the Zoological Gardens, out w here the Girard avenue bridge spans the Schuylkill river. “Crockie Baldwin” does the honors for the birds, and lie lias unite an extensive vocabulary, which be draws from as occasion requires. “Crockie” is a handsome sulphur-crested cockatoo who came from Australia mauy years ago, long before the Zoological Gameiis were thought of. The bird has quite a history, and if he were able to relate all he bus seen or heard he would doubtless tell a marvelous tale. To begin with, "Crockie” is about 80 years old, as near as can be ascertained, and Is consequently the patriarch of the strange and varied colony which inhabits the Gar den. "Crockie” came to this country about sixty-five years ago, but who his first owner was is not known, and the bird has never offered to tell, even if he remembers those years of long ago. Mystery anil uncertainty surround the first twenty-five years of “Croekie’s” American citizenship, but the last forty years of his life are familiar to many who have perhaps forgotten the bird as he passed from their view. Some forty years ago “Crockie” took up his residence in the Pennsylvania Hospital, and for thirty years he was one of the features of the institution. His owner kept the gates of the hospital, and “Crockie” sat on liis perch in the little house at the gate, and day after day, year in and year out, ho watched the parsers by. Patients, nurses, physicians, students and visitors came beneath his view as he sat there. To all who passed "Crockie” croaked a cheery “How d’ye do?” and a courteous "Good-by!” and many a stranger passed through the gate wondering who had hailed him. More than one poor and friendless patient, dis charged after weeks of suffering, went out into the busy streets of the city fearing with him remembrances of a kind “Good-by,” which followed him as he passed through the gates. “Crockie” was ever an intelligent and ob serving bird. He took much interest in the students as they passed and repassed his perch, and the students manifested an equal friendship for him. From time to time he was instructed in the art of speech by them, and mauy of the phrases which form his vocabulary came from that source. And thereby hangs a tale—a tale of fun for “Crockie” ana the boys, but which wound up with a sad loss to the bird. how “crockie” lost an eye. “Crockie Baldwin” looks out upon the world through but one eye. His right orb is sightless, and it has Iwn many a long year since he has enjoyed the use of that eye. There is a tradition which explains the disfigurement after this manner: His master, who had grown old iu liis service at the hospital gate, grew bibacious ns the years rolled on, and the result of his tippling afforded much sport to the young medical students. Often as tiler passed they twitted the old man on his love for the bottle, and now anil then ungracious comment was passed in the shape of “the old man’s full again.” “Crockie” took in the situation, and, it would seem, silently made up his mind to have a hand in the fun. Oft repeated in his presence his readv in telligence caught the phrase tho students used, aud one day he stnrtled the old man by croaking in almost human tones, “Old man’s full again.” Surprise was not the ably emotion which was excited in the old man by this unlooked for assertion, and in his anger he made at the bird, who fled across the lawn. “Crockie” was caught and in the rough handling he received liis ijiglit eye was injured so that its sight was rumed. Poor “Crockie” was effectually cured of his desire to poke fun at the old man, and in his subsequent life at the hospital gate he fought shy of the students. presented to the zoological society. , Eight years ago, or thereabout, the old gate-keeper died, and the bird fell into the hands of a fancier. A life of vicissitude was the lot of the bird for two years, and he passed from hand to hand until he attracted the attention of Mr. Cox, of Germantown. Mr. Cox took a fancy to the bird, learned his interesting history, bought him for SBO and gave him to the Zoological Society. Six years have been added to the many which Lave passed over “Croekie’s” head since he joined the feathered colony in the Gardens, and he has amused and interested thousands of visitors. He is a privi leged character, and occupies a perch of his own in the centre of the bird house. A eage is an indignity from which he is exempted, and the only restraint placed upon him is a light chain which pro vents his leaving his perch. There he sits throughout the day, busying himself in at tending to the many visitors, for most of whom he has a word of greeting am 1 fare well. When his keeper cpmes along he ven tures upon a more extended conversation, saying very plainly: “Had your breakfast?" “Come to" supper,” and a number of other phrases. Oue of “Croekie’s” chief enjoy ments is a walk along the railing in front of the cages in the bird house —a privilege oc casionally granted by the keeper. Crawling along from cage to cage the bird pauses be fore each, and with a polite bow to his less privileged mates behind the wires, he calls out: “How d’ye do?” and as he moves away he sings out "Good-by.” “Crockie” knows how to laugh with an almost human jollity, and hugely enjoys the operation. He prefers, however, to laugh alone, and if a stranger essay to join him his mirth changes suddenly to wrath, and a deafening and discordant screech ab niptly changes the fun. It is a singular fact that the other cockatoos are very jeal ous of “Crockie,” and if they think he is re ceiving too mueh attention they unite in a series of such deafening yells tLat the visi tors are glad to beat a hasty retreat. Another of his favorite pastimes is play, mg with the cat that forms one of the happy family in the bird-house. When visitors are few and far apart “Croctie” begins to whistle and calls “Fuss, Puss,” in a persuasive voice that generally brings out the cat if it be within hearing distance. A strong bond of friendship exists between these two old inmates of the establishment. Four score years weigh heavy upon man. but “Crockie” appeal's not to feel the bur den of his age. Although be has passed the allotted years of man his limit is yet fifty or sixty years in the future, so the natural - ists say- Other generations may yet be amused by “Crockie” Baldwin, as have those past and present.
