in his 63d year at the time of his death.
Justice Jackson was a classical scholar,
graduating from the West Tennessee col
lege in 1S4S. He studied law two years at
the University of Virginia and in jackson
under his kinsmen, Judges A. w. o. Tot
ten and Milton Brown; graduated from
the Lebanon law school in 1853, in which
year he located in>Jackson and engaged in
the practice of law; served on the supreme
bench by appointment on two occasions
and was once a prominent candidate for
supreme judge before the nominating
conventions; relocated In jackson in 1876;
was elected to the state house of represen-
tatives in 1880 on the state credit platform;

THE TOYS.

Ny little son, who look'd from thoughtful eyes
And mov'd and spoke in quiet, grown mp wise.
Having my law the seventh time disobeyed.
I struck him and dismissed
With hard words and unkiss'd,
His mother, who was patient, being dead.
Then, fearing lest his grief should hinder sleep.
! visited his bed,
But found him slumbering deep,
With darkened eyelids and their lashes yet
From his late sobbing wet.
And ], with moan,
Kissing away his tears, left others Of my own,
For on q table drawn beside his head
He had put, within his reach,
A box of counters and q red vein'd stone,
A piece Of glass abraded by the beach
And six or seven shells,
A bottle with bluebells
And two French copper coins, rang'd there
with careful art
To comfort his sad heart.
So when that night I prayed
To Goo and wept and said:
"Ah, when at last we lie with tranced breath,
Not vexing thee in death.
And thou rememberest Of what toys
We make our Joys,
How weakly understood
Thy great commanded good,
Then, fatherly not less
Than I whom thou hast molded from the clay,
Thou'lt leave thy wrath and say,
! will be sorry for their childishness.'

Dressing the Small Boy.

A boy of az or 8 three years Of age
Is not too young for kits and blorses.
but do not put him into trousers. Any
Of the thick f~lannels or soft cloths that
are used for cloaks for little girls will
make O suitable coat for him. A coat
buttoned down the front, with q deep
collar or small cape reaching to the
shoulders, is a good style for q boy. Be
sure to protect his feet with overshoes
and long CATERS when he goes out. 1t
is very important to have the feet warm
as we'll as dry. Neglect of this precau-
ton is apt to bring on IN attack of
Group in children who are p~redisposed
to it, and it is a fruitful source of colds.
A wooden Tam O'Shanter is a pretty
head covering when it Is not necessary
to cover the ears. In that case have a
felt hat trimmed with velvet and broad
strings to tie under the chin. The three
cornered continental hat is still worn
and is very picturesque.-Ladies Home

A Clergyman Claims d, OOO, 900.

The Rev. B. F. Brown Of New Ge-
neva, Pa, believes that he has a claim
on a share of 81, 900, 900 due from the
United States government. His father
was a southern planter who during the
war Of 1912 furnished General Harrison
with a large amount Of goods for which
the government has never settled.
Brown was born in 1916, and his
father died two years later, leaving a
will, n clause of which directs that,
should the government ever pay the bill,
the proceeds should be divided among
the children alive. The Rev. Mr.. Brown
and one sister are the only heirs. Brown
has discovered that congress in the fifty
third session passed a law authorizing
the settlement Of all unpaid claims arts
ing from the war Of lSl2.-New York

DEATH THE RESULT
Long Illness Of Associate JUS

mates Fatally.
CONSUMPTION THE MALADY.
Of Income Tax Case
Undoubtedly HastenS
the End.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 10.-The
Hon. Howell Edmunds jackson, asso-
ciate justice Of the supreme court OF
the United States, died at his resi-
dence at West Meade at 2 p. m. of con-
sumption.
Judge Jackson had been in failing
health for the past four years, but it
has been only in the past few months
that the progress of the disease began
to cause his family and friends uneasi-
ness. Last year he went on q lengthy
trip to the far west in search of health.
Later he went to Thomasville, Ga,
where it was hoped the mild and yet
bracing climate would restore his one
time vigorous constitution. The
trip did him little good and
after a long time he was brought
home. At his old home Judge Jack.
son seemed to improve slightly until
he went to Washington to sit in the
second hearing of the income tax case.
He stood that trying trip only fairly
well, and after his return home ap-
peared to lose strength rapidly. New.
ertheless, Judge Jackson never took to
his bed until about a week ago. Since
that time his family and friends have
realized that the end was near, and his
death was not unexpected.
The arrangements for the funeral
have not been fully completed, but it
is known that it will take place next
Sunday afternoon at $3.50 o'clock.

The Landlubber Port Warden.

Samuel Braunhart, who was recently
appointed port warden, is rapidly ia
miliarizing himself with his duties. A
few days ago a vessel entered the har-
Dor, and Sam rubbed his hands in a sat
isfied way as he sized her up from the
dock.
"Ha, she has a big cargo aboard" he
remarked. Look at her, will you?
She's clear out Of the water"
He was surprised when he boarded
her and was told that she carried only a
third Of a cargo. He was inclined to be
suspicious. He thought the captain was
trying to dodge fees, so he remarked:
Well, let us go down in the cellar
and look at what cargo there is"
While he was still aboard the seamen
shortened up the ladder to his boat, SO
that when he left he had to drop into
his boat from the end of it.
"Whew !" exclaimed Braunhart. 1.-The
tide has been running ont since we Went
aboard !'-San Francisco Post.

STORIES OF THE DAY.
why Congressman T. c. Joy of Missouri
Treated the Crowd.

Congressman T. g. Joy of Missouri
has done nothing for. the last few hours
but settle several demands for cold bot
ties, which seem to be on him very
heavily.
1t seems that he came to the night
clerk of the Palace hotel a few evenings
ago, and with a great display Of secrecy
handed him a little pasteboard box,
with the information that it contained
valuables. II want this placed in the
safe, Mr.. Hammon," he said, las many
costly things are in it. l will go out
this evening with Mrs. JOY and would
prefer to have it in a secur place"
"All right, sir" responded the clerk,
with one of his justly celebrated bows,
and the box was tucked away in a far
corner, after which the combination
was turned twice and the congressman
went his way rejoicing.
The next evening he returned to the
Office and politely said to Mr.. Martin,
Il will take the box of valuables left
with you last evening" The box was
delivered, and Mr.. JOY opened it before
the clerk. Greatly to his surprise, it IN
tanned nothing but a tortoise shell comb
and a few pieces Of tissue paper. The
clerk blushed and so did Mr.. Joy. Both
gentlemen looked confused.
Several attempts at explanation were
INDUCED in, but Mr.. Joy could not &C
count for the disappearance of the jew.
els, and Mr.. Martin knew the box had
not left the safe. There was long, pain
full spell Of heavy silence, and both gen
tlemen grew very polite to each other.
Everything was looking peculiar to va
rious people who stood around and
thought all by themselves. Very little
was said, however. Finally Mr.. Ham,
mon, who received the package, was
sent for. He also knew nothing. The
participants were all on the defensive,
but not a blow was struck. But it was
getting frigid for somebody.
Presently the congressman went up
stairs to see Mrs. Joy about the strange
disappearance. In q short time he re
turned and sneaked around to the cash.
Ter. Those who were near enough heard
him whisper:
"Say, old a the wine is on me.
My wife gave mt the wrong box, and
the jewels have been up stairs all the
time"
Mr.. Joy is paying his losses like a
man.-San Francisco Call.

A Snake In the Lining.

This is al authentic snake story Not
long ago when a clothing house adver-
tised a special reduction sale MI. Jacob
Shaw, manager of the electric light
works in Ellicott City, bought an outfit
for his little boy. The jacket included
in the purchase was worn with the suit
until, in the course Of of a month or so,
the garment became unfit for wear and
had to be put away. About it there was
a most unnatural odor. There was no
living in the same room with the boy
and that coat. The other day Mrs. Shaw
ventured to make an investigation, the
o~fensiveness Of the garment having
somewhat subsidized, when in the coats
lining. securely sewed in, were found
the remains of a viper snake Is inches
long. How the snake got there is a mys-
terry Of some sweatshop. - Baltimore

Consul General karel, at st. Peters
burg, furnishes the state department
with a review OF the crop prospects in
Russia. The report is to the effect that
while In some regions there Is a good
crop, in others the outlook is very poor,
owing to the bad weather, late sowing
and other conditions. Mr.. Karel says
that both winter and spring wheat has
suffered, as has also the rye crop.
