JEFFERSON DAVIS DEAD.

At 1915 o'clock last Friday
morning, Jefferson Davis, ex-presi-
dent of the confederate states died
at the residence of his lifelong
friend, J. u. Payue, in New Orleans.
From the beginning Of his fatal i'll
ness Mr.. Davis insisted that his
case was hopeless, though the
dread of pain or fear of death new
er appeared to take the slightest
hold upon his spirits. At six o'clock
the previous evening Mr.. Davis
was seized with congestive chill,
which seemed to absolutely crush
vitality out of his already enfeebled
body. From that moment to the
moment of his death the history of
his case was that of gradual sink
ing. At Z o'clock Mrs. Davis ad-
ministered some medicine, but the
ex-president declined to receive the
whole dose. She urged upon him
the necessity of taking the remain
der, but puttingi it aside with gen.
tie gesture, he whispered, "Pray ex-
cuse me-" Finding that Mr.. Davis
was breathing somewhat heavily as
he lay upon his back, the doctors
assisted him to turn upon his right
side. With his cheek resting upon
his right hand, he lay for some ff-
teen minutes breathing softly but
family. More feebly came the res
pirations till they passed into 81
lence, and then the watchers knew
that the silver cord had been
broken.
After death the face of the de-
ceased, though looking slightly
emaciated, showed no trace of suf-
fering, more resembling that of
peaceful sleeper than that of death.
Jefferson Davis was born in Ken
lucky in what is known as Todd
June 2, 1908, and was
therefore at the time of his death in
his SD year. His father was
soldier. While Mr..
Davis was yet child the family
took up a residence near Wood
vile, Miss. Mr.. Davis entered
Pennsylvania College in Kentucky,
but in 1924 left that institution for
West Point Military academy, from
which he graduated in 1928. He
served in the Black Hawk war. In
June 1885, he eloped with a daugh-
ter of Gen. Taylor, afterward presi-
dent of the United States, and re-
signed his commission of Lieuten-
ant. In 1914 he was chosen an
elector on the Polk and Dallas
ticket, and in 1916 was sent to Con-
gress. In 1916 he resigned from
the house to engage in the war with
Mexico. At the battle of Buena
Vista he was severely wounded.
President Polk offered him briga-
1ier-generalship but he declined it.
He was the States rights" candi-
date for governor of Mississippi in
1851, but was defeated. In 1852
he was made Secretary of War.
His service in the U. S. Senate be-
gan in 1S47 by appointment. He
was reelected in 1848. He return
ID to the Senate in 1857 and re-
signed a few years later when Mis-
'issippi seeded. Was elected

there is no excuse for anyone
not enjoying the holidays to
the fullest extent, when they

Oatmeal.

The manufacture of oatmeal from oats
is very different from the making of
-four from wheat. The cleaning process
es in the first place involve much more
labor and require more time and machin-
cry, tho oat kernel being incumbered
with its hull, and more bulky and diff
cult to separate from foreign substances.
After cleaning and before hulling, the
oats are dried by heat, an operation de-
handing still more special machinery,
and requiring time and careful attention.
After drying they are cooled and sent to
the hullers. These are stones with n
sharp grit, and the hulling process must
be carefully managed. as 1t is important
to avoid breaking the kernel. Good ma
chinery is required for all these opera
tons. In preparing the meal from the
kernels the rolling process has almost
entirely superseded the former method
OF steel cutting, as the rolled meal may
be cooked much quicker, requiring less
than one-quarter of the time needed for
the cut meal.-Good Housekeeping.

The Washington correspondent of The
Philadelphia Record writes; There is a
noble old manor house on an estate not
far from Washington, recently purchased
by n rich Washingtonian. The other day
he asked n party of friends down to see
it, and proudly displayed its attractions
till they all exclaimed with delight-de-
light all the more keen because every
thing was more or less dilapidated. When
he had exhausted the house and the gar
den, he said TO his guests: 4 bought an
ancestor with this place. Come and let
me introduce you to him. So they all
followed him to u secluded spot in the
grounds, where they found a fine old
marble vault built into the hillside. The
host opened the rusty iron door, and they
all passed into the cobwebby darkness.
Presently they made out on the left hand
shelf a skeleton lying at full length, with
a tiny snakes nest in the breast bone.
That's Col. P~lantagenet.' said the host,

where Enemies Are beneficial.

"To succeed in literature it is better
to have many more good enemies than
good friends. Good friends are like wo-
men who tire of their lovers, they forget
rapidly; but good enemies are like for
saken women, who pursue us even be-
yond the grave" This sentiment,
scrawled at random on a loose sheet of
paper in an elegant, aristocratic hand,
was not penned by a cynical French
man, trying to emulate La Rochefou-
cauld, but by a genial Galician, the au-
thor of a series of charming stories and
novelettes, who, with the Russians Toll
stoi and Dostoievsky, has from his debut
won for himself a European reputation

well as careful training and intelligence,
spoiled them by a thick and heavy ut

and better the more nearly it approaches

however beautiful, must be varied and
made distinct by words, which alone
