She Wanted to Kiss Him.

Mother Wilson of this city always
attends the reunions at Baxter, and
there is no one in Camp Logan who
enjoys the weeks outing and the
camp fire speeches more than she
does.
Among others to whom Kansas
City's brilliant young orator, Mayor
Webster Davis, was introduced, was
Mother Wilson. AS she took him
by the hand she said: "Mr. Davis, l
would like TO kiss you.'
There was quite company pres
eut and the young orator who is
destined TO be the Republican gov
ernor of Missouri, If he lives until
1896, blushed furiously at being so
unceremoniously and affectionately
addressed, but he was relieved when
Mrs. Wilson said:
Some weeks ago, Mr.. Davis, at n
public meeting which you were to
address, you were twitted by n
speaker who preceded you about
being single man and that you
ought to at least have a sweetheart.
When it came your turn to speak, l
remember that you stated 1T is true
| am not married man, but | am
not void of sweetheart. My mother
is my sweetheart Mr.. Davis, a
young man who can always speak
and think of his mother as a sweet
heart is worthy of the highest hon
ors that can be given him in this
country. and the respect and admi-
ration of good women"
There were many high compli-
ments paid Webster Davis at Bax-
ter Springs, but we doubt If there
were any that fully measured up to
that paid him by Mother Wilson,
Columbus Advocate.

with his own hands, went to the
platform and made rousing, pa
triotic speech, and then into camp
like the rest of the "boys" for the
entire week. He invited the old sol

troubles, ask him to remedy them,
and if in his power he would do il.
