In the lone retreat. -
And it's mystic face

Where from other blossoms 1t bloomed

I touched it's petals bright and rare.
And said, whence are thou, o flower!
A wondrous grace
I see in thy face;
- Take root in my heart,
For no more we part

"Who warneth me thus?" 1 said,

With JOY supreme my soul was rife;

GETTING ON TO THE GAME
Cardinal satoIli Has An Object Lessor
In the National Game.


A worcester, Mass, special says: Car
dinal Satolli saw his first game OF baseball
here yesterday. He was visiting Holy
Cross College, and with several of the In
structors sat in the stand and saw the New
ports, strong professional team,
beat the college team, two to one, IN IL
innings. The cardinal did not understand
the game, and the explanations translated
into Italian rather lost their point. The
subleties of the pitchers art and the STOP
ping and throwing Of swift balls did not
appeal to him, but when one player sent
tremendous sky-scraper to center and ran
nearly to second before the catch was made
he clapped his hands and cried "Brava!"
Towards the end OF the game scorchtng
hot foul darted at his e1ninence. He
lodged 1t swiftly and the ball smashed The
back of his chair. The cardinal only
smiled and was seemingly not in the least
frightened. His secretary picked up the
ball and the game stopped while the car
d:nal inspected It curiously for moment.
AT the end ne said that he was sorry that
Holy Cross was beaten and that the young
men must strive to do better next time.

Tying Her Bonnet Under Her Chin.

Tying her bonnet under her chin,
She tied her, raven ringlets In;
But not alone in the silken snare,
Did she catch her lovely floating hair,
For, tying her bonnet under her chin,
She tied a young mans heart within.
They were strolling together up the hill,
Where the wind comes blowing merry and
chill;
And It blew the curls, frolicsome race,
All over the happy, beach-colored face,
Till, scolding and laughing she tied them
Under ri her beautiful dimpled chin.
And it blew color, bright as the bloom
OF the pinkest fuschia's tossing plume,
All over the cheeks of the prettest girl
That ever imprisoned romping curl,
Or tying her bonnet under her chin,
Tied a young mans heart within.
Sleeper and sleeper grew the hill;
Nader. merrier chillier still =
The western wind blew down, and played
The widest tricks with-the little maid,
As. tying her bonnet under her chin.
She tied young mans heart within.

appointments. At any rates, from ALI
can pick up amongst the neighbors,
when Gus got home that night he was
SO bad scratched and tore up till he
looked like he mought have rode a
thrashin machine through hurricane.
Up to this time old man Billy Virgins
and old man Uriah Clancy had walked
the chalk line of law and order, and
kept the peace and dignity of the state
like friends and fellow citizens. But
the family rucus had went ON from
bad to worse, and more and more of il.
The day and hour had now come when
they couldn't stay out of the game no
longer.
Over there on Little Wolf creek old
man Clancy runs a water mill. And
down the creek mile below the mill
old man Clancy runs farm. The
next mornin after Gus Virgins went
home wearin on his youthful counte-
nance such a scandlous Disagreement,
old man Billy he put out and went over
in the woods paster, where him and
old man Uriah had joined fences Is
years ago, and cut loose henceforth and
forever. In less than three hours, and
before old man Uriah could hear the
news, % head of cattle, four mules
and big bunch of goats had invaded
into the Clancy farm and licked up
three or or four acres of young corn.
Did old man Uriah shed any tears to
speak of, or lose lick of sleep, or miss
q meal OF victuals? No. He blowed
the horn for his hands and built new
fence. That night he lowed it was jest
about the right time of year for him
to cut his mill dam and let off the wa
ter. By the first crack of day he was
down there with his hands at the mill.
They cut the dam, and when old man
Billy Virgins went down to his creelc
farm, where he had 20 acres of swamp
corn-"and hit bunchin for the tas-
sel''-there was water, water every
where, and not a blame thing but
water.
Now you mought maybe think that
by this time them two cantankerous
old men have met up together some
where's along the big road and had a
bloody fight. But they haven't-not
as anybody knows of. And my own
private opinions are that they never
will. From general appearments
think one of them is right tolerable bad
sEeered and the other blame glad of it.
They put me in mind of julie Nabors
when he went out through the settle
ment loolkin for work. and prayin to
the good Lord not to let him find any.
Old man Billy has now took out and
quit the Methodist church on the
grounds that he can't fellowship with
the Clancys, and old man Uriah has
left the peoples party because he don't
see how the Clancys and the Wigginses
can vote the same ticket.
There amt no tellin for certain where
the family rucus will stop. But in the
main time we are not loolxin for any
second-class funerals, and the country
is safe.

The Thing Was Loaded.

Old man Joshiah Jernigan has got ono
of these long, tall army musloets, which.
has come down to him through the
Jernigan generations from the first set
tlement of the country. 1t is one of
them guns what you read about. You
ought to hear Josiah tell about it. He
can spin some of the hair-raisin yarns
perhaps as to how his great-grandfa-
ther use to shoot bear and painters and
kill wild Indians with that same old
army musket.
One night last week it would seem
like Wade Turner had went over there
to the Jernigan place to spend the
night with the boys. And after sup
per old man Josiah took down the old
musket and unwound himself in re-
CARDS to the war history and the fight
in records of the Jernigans. In his
own wild pecurious way he told some
tremendous bloody yarns, and conse-
quentially the boys they saw things in
their sleep that night.
Next mornin Wade Turner and Sol
Jernigan-both of them nothin but
yearlin boys-they went in kersnooks
together and fixed up for a wild turkey
hunt. Wade lowed he would take the,
old army musket and 60 out after tho
fresh meat. Sol was to meet him at the
big spring down in the woods and play
turkey. When Wade found the game
and leveled his gun and pulled the trig-
ger and the cap popped-so far as they
knowed that old musket hadn't been
fired off since the last war-Sol he was
to jump up and keel over and flop like
wild turkey gobbler with handful OF
buckshot in his head. Everything was
fixed up and laid Off to a mats Lristley
and the boys went forth.
Sol hid out in clurnp of galIberry
bushes, and when Wade slipped up in
sight with the old army musket he
stretched his neck and gobbled loud
and clear and sassy. Then Wade he
brought down the old musket, took aim,
pulled the trigger and-well, the blamed
thing was loaded. 1t was SO hard on
trigger till Wade pulled it upand missed
his mark. But it give out q regular
Fourth of July report and kicked Wade
ten feet down the hill. In the tremendous
roar and confusionment Sol forgot to
jump up and keel over and flop like a
regular shot turkey. He lit out and run
off down the branch and clum tree, and
there he stayed till old man Josiah and
all the family come and told him that
nobody was hurt and the war was over.
But the old army musket, which
hangs on the wall, amt gone nowheres.

NEW MINDEN IN RUINS.

The Little Illinois Village Almost OBJ
Observation-Disclosures Died and Thirty
One Injured-Heavy Loss to the Farm
ers of the VIcinity-It was the Same
Storm that Devastated st. Louis and
East st. Louis.
NASHVILLE, ILL.,, May 3I.-Wednes-
day evening about 6:3O o'clock New
Minden, village of 400 people located
seven miles north of this city, was
swept away by one of the most terrific
and disastrous tornadoes ever known
in this history of this country, carry
ing death and destruction in its wake.
Only one building in the little village
is standing without injury. There
were so or co buildings in the place,
and all were completely wrecked ex-
mill in the place was unroofed and
badly damaged, with quite
loss of flour and grain. The,
Luthern church is about a
total wreck, together with the
village schoolhouse, which is demol-
ished. The storm was accompanied by
a perfect deluge of rain and hail, COM
ing from north westerly and going in
southeasterly direction to a point
about five miles south of New Minden,
then varying to the northeast, passing
out of this Washington county near
Irvington, at which place considerable
damage was done to dwellings, or
chards, ETC., but no lives were lost
there.
New Minden seems to have been in
the track of the storm center, but all
along its path through this county
h
seen. Farmhouses, barns, fences and
orchards are now in ruins and
growing crops and fruit are badly
damaged. The track of the storm was
at least mile in width, but the heavy
wind touched up a much greater terri
tory throughout the northern half of
the county. Nashville was also visited
by a severe storm, with rain, causing
much damage to chimneys, shade trees
and electric light wires.
The estimated loss in property to the
citizens of New Minden is $4,000 to
S1O0, 900, and to farmers in the storm
stricken portion of this county the
damage will not fall short of $50, 900.
