denomination, while it continually
cries out to all other denominations,

forbid that the orphans should suf-
fer! Let The rich give to them from
their abundance, and the poor di-

We will say, in conclusion, that
it is not because it is a Baptist in

TIE ORPHANS HONE, at Lau-
derdale Springs, is again in need of
assistance. 1t has been announced
several times heretofore that the
orphans were at the point of star
walton. and the danger now seems
more imminent than ever. The
Orphans Home Bonner of late
date says:
"Tbe Home. needs help; contri-
buttons of all kinds are respectfully
and earnestly solicited; the supplies
that are on hand are being consum-
ed daily; they must be removed or
want will come"
We will venture just a word in
reference to the Orphans Home. 1t
is a sectarian institutional is con-
Quoted under the auspices of the
Baptist denomination, and all the
credit of supervising it-all the
credit of feeding, clothing. and edu-
eating these orphans of our dead
soldiers, and others, is claimed by
the Baptist church they claim the
=" glory aud renown of running
this charitable institution. Now,
just so long as this is the case. it
will not be " a SUCCESS" A sectd-
rian charity" will always be a
most pitiable object of charity
Other denominations will not take
much interest in it, and even the
" outsiders" those belonging to
no denomination whatever-will not
give as much and as freely as they
would if it were not sectarian-if it
it were not under the auspices of a
particular denomination.
Now, we wonld respectfully sug-
gest that the Baptists of Mississip-
pi-for the sake Of the orphans
Observation-Disclosures theOrphans'
Home at Lauderdale to the charge
of the State, and let it become a
5tSte institution. Say to the Leg
islature "Here is the Home and
here are the Orphans-they are the
children Of the State, and the State
ought to feed, clothe and educate
her 1atherless and motherless child
rem. As to the Home, it is an ell
ephant,' and you are welcome to it
if you will take it off our hands"
Or, perhaps that ancient Order, the
F. & A. Masons-whO are soon to
meet in grand convOcation in this
city-wOuld take the Home" off
the hands of the Baptists, If it were
offered to them. The Masonic fra
ternity is made up of no sect and
no nation, but is composed of all
sects and all nations; and in the
hands of that ancient and honorable
Order, the Orphans Home would
become, really and in truth. public
charsy, supported by all sects and
all peoples. The " Home" would
thus he free from the prejudice that

HIt seems to be difficult mat,
ter for some or our contemporaries
in this State to keep out of politics,
even for a short season. NOtW it'll
standing we are just out Of a long
and exhaustive contest in national
politics, aud every one, it seems to
Us, should desire little respite from
all political excitement and "vexa-
tiOn OF jpartisan) spirit" our friends
Of the tripOt are beginning to stir
the political cess pool with their in
evitabIe steel pens, and discussing
the question of who shall be the
next anti-radical candidate for the
Office Of Governor, and upon what
line of policy the canvass shall be
conducted. Seeing that the cleo
ton is nearly twelve mouths off yet,
We think the introduction and dis
cussiOn of these questions a little
premature. "TImes change and we
change with them" What is polite
and expedient to-day may not be SO
tomorrow, next mouth or next year.
The man who to-day may be. consid-
cred the very most fittest and avail
able candidate for Governor, might,
six months hence, turn out to be
totally negative
We are all agreed, or should be,
upon one point, and that is, the Or
position to Radicalism must act as
IL man-as a unit must all pull
tOg ether, without reference to form
er party names or distinctions
Democrats, Liberals, Conservatives
all, all must unite in one grand,
Herculean effort to overthrow the
present Radical State Government.
We must resolve to rescue the Com
monwealth from the clutches Of
those who have and feel no interest
in our beloved State, except to fill
their pockets out of her Golfers, aud
turn her over to the guardianship
of her true sOns-her real, bona .tide
citizens. To this end let us all re-
solve to work when the proper time
comes. But the time for discussion
of the merits of candidates has not
come, we think. Let us "wait for
tho wagon" Festi lente.

recent English work on billiards

A recent English work on billiards
oiyes some interesting particulars con-
5ected with the game. 1t was only in
1897 that slate tables were substituted
Cor wood and marble, and only in 1885
that India rubber cushions took the
nlace of flock and list. Again, it was
not until 1907 that leathern tips were in
vented for cues; which rendered side
strokes possible. About 1918 the side
stroke was discovered by one Barley. the
nroprietor of billiard rooms at Bath, Eng
land. BARLEY had q marker named
Carr, to whom he confined his secret,
and Carr, when pressed to reveal it,
nroduced boxes of what he called twist
Ing chalk" to the use of which he at
trbuted his powers, and which he sold
at seventy-five cents each.

be good one, a kind one, so he does
what he is bidden. This makes gen.
tie. yet vigorous and even mettlesome
horse, obedient always and trusty, your
friend and associate. loving your society,
looking and asking for it. Such horses
are worth their weight in gold. They
are what you want of them, always clean,
lively. healthy and handsome and gentle !;
children may be suffered to play with
them, and they are trusty everywhere.

Of that article. A fruit commission

made from California figs. 1t is stated
that from eight to ten pounds of dried
figs will make gallon of brandy, which
can be sold at 81 80 per gallon. As figs
are very plentiful in this county-ex-
