Mississippi Editors Speak in Glowing
Terms of Atlanta

Iacteoo Miss November IS.-(SDecial)-
The majority of the members of the MIS-
sissippi Press Association have retuflieu
from the trip to the exposition ana an are
loud in it's praises. Colonel j. L. rover
the nestor of journalism in MISSISSIPPI
said today to The Constitutions represent

pected a good DEAL but was by TO means

sissippi had not a better display OF her

tunity to advertise herself on account OF no

sissippians should see the fair ana get an
icea of the grand section OF he Onited
States we .nhabit, it's wonderful resources
and magnificent prospects. Atlanta IS
most wonderful city. She has recovered
from the devastation of Sherman's army
in an almost magical manner and today
stands as one of the finest cities on the
American continent. Her present strength
is due in great measure to her newspa-
pers. They represent the best thought
and noblest aspirations of the American
people. They are enterprisins, above al
things, and are conservative, clear ana
most ably edited. Henry W. Gr2dys pa
per. The Constitution, is regarded with
a peculiar affection by the people of Geor-
gia, but not alone on account of mis- con-
nections with it, but because II has always
stood for Georgia and the southern peo-
pie.
''The exposition IS great wonderful. and
city in the south hut Atlanta could
have successfully undertaken and carried
out so completely such 4 ponderous
scheme"
Nearly all the schools and colleges Of
Mississippi are arranging for excursions
to the exposition and the members of the
state press since their return home, nave
commenced a vigorous agitation Of the
subject, so that the attendance Of Mis-
sissippians VIII commence to grow larger

How Thomas Dunn English Wrote the
Famous Song That Trilby Sang.

How Thomas Dunn English Wrote the
Famous Song That Trilby Sang.
THAT unfortunate early indiscretion OF
mine is the way Thomas Dunn English
refers to his famous song, ben Bolt, ;"
that was sung by Trilby in the popular
novel Of that name and that has been sung
the world over for half a century. The
verses were written at the request OF n.
p. Willis in 1913 and were what Mr.. Eng
lish terms a patchwork" OF two poems
Willis was then conducting The New
Mirror in New York and asked English
to write a sea song for the periodical
English started sea song, but could not
finish it acceptably to himself, so he be-
gan work on another poem, which ne
partly completed also. In despair he com
bined the two, signed his initials to the
patchwork and sent the poem to Willis,
with instructions to burn the production
IL he did not desire to publish It,
Willis was delighted with the verses
and published them in The New Mirror
Sept. 20, 1S43 under the title Ben Bolt. y
The English papers stole tho poem and
reprinted it, and it took England by
storm.

Mrs Bradley IL so modest she could

our camp In q pretty little clearing. aud
one morning two OF the gentlemen went
out TO look at some traps that we had set.

and this moose came along and freed
them. No, will not tell which OF the
party were trced After chasing two OF
the gentlemen up into the branches of
a tree he came charging down upon our
camp. Ono of tho voyageurs was at the
opposite side OF the clearing down by the
river looking after some traps, and the
moose struck at him and missed, but de-
molished half hogshead used for a water
barrel Ny brother and had been stand
ing together IA few minutes before. and he
had given me his winchester TO hold
while he went into the tent to fill his
cartridge belt. When the moose struck
at the voyageur, he shambled along, and
as he advanced his left fore foot drew on
his heart and had the good luck TO hit ex-
actly in the right place behind the left
fore leg. lie gave tine most piteous cry
that have ever heard and tried to strug-
gle to his feet, but volley from five rifles
in the hands of the gentlemen finished
him."
