News was received of the death at
his home, near Evansville, Ark, of
Rev. Thos. Tenant, the Oldest man
in this State and the Oldest preacher
in the world. He was lis years old !;
he was born in It'll, and removed to
Arkansas in 1919. He represented
Washington county in the Legisla-
ture in 1910, and had been q Metho-
dist minister for ninety years.
Our friend j. P. Kellam handed us
the above very interesting item, and
stated that he knew the venerable
preacher noticed in Washington coun-
ty, Ark, as long ago as 1852. The
Rev. gentleman, Mr., Kellum says,
rather lost caste by allowing himself
to be elected to the legislature and
marrying a young wife, acts highly
reprehensible in the estimation of the
"unco' guild" OF that day, as some
deem them at present. By the way,
the Kellam family were among the
very earliest settlers of Arkansas, the
grandfather of John having settled in
Washington county in 1918.

Mrs. SaxOn's Lecture.

Mrs. Sax0n's Lecture.
According 10 promise, we will give
"A synVpsis OF this lecture, The speak
or began by a reference TO the objec-
tons OF some TO ladies appearing in
the lecture field. She thought the OBJ
joctions we're singularly inconsistent.
Women arc welcomed Oh the stage,
and aspublic singers. etc. Sweet girl
graduates appear with applause ON
the platforms OF colleges arrnyed in
fine style for such occasions, to re-
hearse productions too often borrowed
from the brains Of others, All this
is considered proper and common
dable in tho female Sex. Whyi Be
cause they are intended for the
amusement of men. But lott woman
appear on the platform to discuss a
question like that Of temperance, or
in any way to assume to instruct her
audience, aud straightway the cry is
raised that she is out Of her place and
unsexing herself!
Tho lecture was not one Of the old
style clap-trap and sentimental dccla-
nations on the subject of temperance,
but struck out into new channels, and
she handled her topics in illogical and
mastery manner, interspersed with
flights Of eloqucnce and touches OF
pathos.
She made n telling exposition OF
u matter upon which too little has
been said, we mean tho operations and
influence OF the liquor dealers and
brewers association. The brewers
association organized on the plausible
idea that by increasing the consump
ton Of beer, after the European style,
the drinking of whiskey would be
diminished, and the temperance cause
be practically aided. She showed
this TO have been great and lamen-
table mistake, tho result having been
not merely to make beer-drnking
popular, but actually to increase
whiskey drinking by making itrespec-
table. She showed the fallacy OF the
idea OF some that beer. drinking is
and that as in common use
it really contains alcohol and is an in
toxicant. Worse than all, she showed
that its supposed harmless and falsely
claimed properties as II healthrestora-
tive, had caused it to be used extern
5ively in families, and produced wide
spread habits of intoxication among
women. She gave several startling
from her own observa
lion which left no doubt on this sub
ect, and showed that this domoraliza-
ion and degradation OF their sex WAS
he real cause of the organization of
he Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, and afforded the most ample
,round for woman taking the field
ctively in defence of her own sex,
o say nothing of the ruin wrought
" incompetence on those nearest and
learest to her.
She further showed that this same
rewers' association were to-day by
heir money controlling the politicians
nd legislation of the country, and
cad from their resolutions their threats t
D defeat any party which should fail
0 do their bidding. She riddlod the
umbug of u sumptuary law as raised !
y Senator Coke and others against Y
le temperance movement.
We regret that we cannot give n
loro adequate idea OF this able and =
Ioquent lecture, and more especially I
o we deeply regret that our people a

OH. WAS 1T I,OR WAS 1T YOUa

OIL was it I, or was it you
That broke the subtle chain that ran
Between us two, between us two?
Oh! was it /, or was it you?
Not very strong the chain at best,
Not quite complete from span TO span;
i never thought 'twould stand the test
OF settled commonplace, at best.
But OH how sweet, h ow sweet You were
When things were at their first and best
And we were friends without demur,
Shut out from all the sound and stir.
The little, petty, worldly race!
Why couldn't we have stood the test
The little test of commonplace
And kept the glory and the grace
OF that sweet time when first we metz
Oh! was it l, or was il you,
That dropped the golden links and let
The little rift, and doubt and fret
Creep in and break that subtle chalnE
Oh! was it /. or was it you?
Still ever yet and yet again
Old parted friends will ask with pain.

The wind comes up brisllly from the
river; golden sunshine penetrates every
thing.
What misery is there in the world 1or
Clara Jaffer as she gives reign to her meet
footed Bruce! What though against her
throbbing heart letter lies that she wept
over for two hours before? This Is her
panacea for all ill-tides that the ocean OF
life thus far has swept upon her-an entire
surrender of herself to natures benehcent
elixir.
A lively group of friends in waiting
among them Harry Gordon, who greets her
yaliantly. What need to heed longer those
haunting words that seem to rise like a
voice from that precious, woundlng, hidden
letter?
No, notwithstanding her sick heart she
will ignore this CALLING oversight from one
who has been acting the role of lover for so
long and now chooses to leave her without
a touch of the hand-a glance.
''Away. Bruce!' and merry face Is
turned back to meet Harry's discounted
one. as he promptly answers her challenge.
You are wicked to-day, Miss Jatter.
You know my Carl had not fair start"
''But the wicked flee when no man pur-

A sigh struggles up and chokes her flip

by her debonair companion.
With the twilight closing in, and Harry
lingering over the clasp of her hand at the
gate. in the midst of her merry badinage.
like knell striking across gaymusic, comes
again this message so lately read:
DEAR Miss CLARA: l leave England
tomorrow. Perhaps it is best under the
circumstances that we part thus distantly.
That your life may be happy one, in the
future coming to you, is the earnest wish of
your friend EDGAR HALSTEAD.
'In the future coming to her" God
alone knows what future will come to her
now.
