DARLING.

TThe author OF the following beaut lsrl poem is
unknown. 1t is one OF the sweetest gems ever
published in tho English lauguage.-G f. Al
A little maid with sweet blue Dyes
Looked upward with q shy surprise
Because l asked her name;
Awhile she bent her golden head,
While Ger her face soft blushes sH-Sad
Like some swift rosy flame;
Then looking up, she softly said.
my name is Mammas Darling"
~Tell me your mothers name my dear,
And STOPPING low Iaused TO hear
The lit,Ne maid seemed musing;
SWhy mammals names like mine, you know,
But Just because We love her so,
We call her Mamma Darling
sTell me your papa q name" I cried;
The little maidens eyes grow widei
~My papa2 Don't you know?
Why, ever since the baby died
Mamma and / have always tried
To cheer him from his sorrowtngi
And NY mamma and love best
To call him Papa Darling"
what did you call the baby, dear9'
The answer came quite low but clear;
sThe baby-oh, 1 wonder what
They call him now in heaven;
But we had only ono name here,
And that was Baby Darling"
Swift years few by, and once again
That little maid so tender
Stood by my side, but she had grown
Like lilies, tall end slender;
This time twas that called her name,
And swift the bushes grow like hane
At rosy mist Of morning;
clasped her in my arms and kissed
Ny tender hearted Darling

Make Wage Farmers Happy.


Our national policy should cultivate
the dignity Of the country home. Pros
pertty and love of home among the
producers Of the soil build I'D individual
and national character. This policy win
draw away from the ranks of the wage
earners, give them happy homes, and
leave the supply Of Wage-earners less
than the demand. And this will raise
the price Of wage-earners' wages. The
man who now has work or a. situation
and selishly reasons that he benefits
hlmself by maintaining a dear dollar
is neither broad nor humane. He is as
sisting in wrecking his country, and Il
may be too late to remedy the error
Wnen ne, too, is without employment
Mr.. HOrr-I have already called the
attention OF the country to the fact that
the little boy Coin is absolutely without
knowledge of mathematics or correct
information concerning wealth, proper-
ty or money. In his book the boy saws,
and Mr.. Harvey in his debate reneats
the assertion, that foreigners own real
estate, personal property, bonds, stocks
and mortgages in the United States TO
the amount Of ten thousand million dol
lars.
I now state that there is no shadow
OF authority for such a statement and
when Mr.. Harvey reads NV statement
as to the short time debts he don't get
out of his trouble, because the debts
referred to were those that accumulate
every day, and every man who does An
hours work, when the hour Is COM
pleted, has credit for the amount NJ
that work, and that work every week
amounts to a fabulous sum.
Mr.. Harvey-I was discussing at the
last session the banking system and the
short supply of money to supply the
normal demand for business I
showed you the normal supply required.
and to show you the difference between
having the money in existence and hay
ing the banks supply it with their cred
1t system I here hand the stenograph-
er a table Of failures as it appears In
the January number, 1895, Of Dun's Re-
view, to be copied and inserted at this
point of the debate:
Failures for Thirty Eight Years.
The advocate., 1895-08-14

1t shows that during the years Of
the war, when there was plenty Of
money, and the total volume was con-
nned to what was known as the Union
side Of the controversy, making about
NO per capita, the number Of business
failures wag reduced 70 8 minimum.

Expect at the Closing Exercises.

Miss Lowell Tells What the Public May
Expect at the Closing Exercises.
On Wednesday evening, May %, at
8 o'clock, the primary department will
have it's closing exercises. To say that
Mrs. McNair, Misses Ragsdale, Martin
and Atkins have charge of the enter
tainment is only another way of saying
the patrons of the school may expect
something good.
There will be motion songs, and some
instrumental music. The primary elo-
cution class will make it's first appear
ance in poses plastiques. 1t will give
some recitations and the Dolls Hos
pital. The chart class will give an ex.
ercise recitation and song, the first
grade "George Washington Drill,
the second and third grades "Good
Night Drill"
Iregret that we must charge small
admission fee to defray incidental ex
penses which are usually quite heavy.
Last June they amounted to nearly
forty dollars. With the surplus we
purchased music and physiology charts
and pencil sharpener and kindergar
ten material for the primary room. Ii
we have surplus this year we wish to
begin laboratory for our class in
physics.
Thursday evening the music and ell
ocution classes will give their annual
recital Besides the customary recita-
lions and instrumental selections there
will be choruses by the pupils of the
intermediate, grammar, and high
school grades, pantomime, study in
gladiatorial posture, and by many
special requests the pose class will re-
peat ''The Night Before Waterloo"
To the pupils of the music class
there will be awarded three medals
one for scales, one for execution, and
one for application.
We hope all our friends will honor
us by their presence on these evenings.

Report of the Grand Jury.


To the Hon. J. d. Chrisman, Judge Of the Cir
cult Court OF Lincoln County:
After being In session IL days, we
beg leave to make this, our final report.
We have examined 148 witnesses, re-
viewed the testimony of large num-
Der of witnesses in different Justice
courts of the county and have return
ed to this Court 70 true bills, a majority
of which are for the violation of the 10
cal option laws.
We have examined the county Jail
with its inmates and found same in
good condition.
We have examined the justice dock
cts of the County and would suggest
and urge upon them the necessity OF
being systematic in the arrangement
of papers sent to the grand jury in fell
ony cases, and to always take recognl-
sance of witnesses to appear before the
grand jury on the first day of the term
of court that the County may be saved
the expense of having to employ depu-
ties to summon such witnesses before
the grand jury.
We have examined the County poor
house and find same in good condition,
and all paupers present and not able
to work.
We would suggest that the houses
occupied by Geo. Newton and Emanuel
Bowie, be thoroughly cleaned up, also
the bedding in same. We would fur
Their suggest that Harrison Wards,
whom we find sick in bed, should have
some one to wait on him while sick.
We have examined the books of the
county officers and find them all cor
rect, and all moneys accounted for.
We would respectfully recommend
and urge upon the Hon. Board of Su-
pervisors of Lincoln county the neces-
sity of making and adopting some plan
by which all county prisoners may be
either worked on the public roads, the
streets of Brookhaven or in some 9TH
er way they may devise, without regard
to additional expense to the county,
thereby making the county Jail an un-
desirable boarding house.
Thanking your Honor, and the Dis
trict Attorney and all the officers of
the court for the kindness and con-
sideration received at their hands, and
finding no further business, we beg to
be discharged.

A Day in the Woods.

Editor Mississippi Leader:
One of the most enjoyable recent
events was the picnic givcn by Mrs. II.
d. Noteworthy to her Sunday-school
class last Thursday afternoon. Her
class numbers about thirty, and it was
indeed delightful to see their happy
little faces as they gathered around
the bountiful lunch spread by their
teacher and few of tho mothers.
The day was perfect, and the chill
dren enjoyed to the fullest extent the
swing, jumping rope, and games which
were INDUCED in until six o'clock.
One of the best features OF the even
ing was the freezer of delicious cream
sent to the class with the compliments
of MIR. Leary, and the children unani,
mously voted him thanks for his KIND
thoughtfulness.
After a most delightful afternoon
the little folks dispersed, all glad that
thew were members Of Mrs. Nors-
