FOR MAJOR ED WAR

From the Kansas City World
Colonel Henry A. Newman of
Huntsville, who is Colonel and Adiu-
tant General for this division Of Mis-
souri, of the United Confederate
Veterans, "a a guest at the Cen
tropolis last night.
Colonel Newman has been engaged
for several months in organizing
Confederate camps in various parts
OF the state. Up to date he has
organized AZ of these camps, four of
which are located in Lafayette
county. This number is only ex-
ceeded by Virginia, which has 43
camps, and Texas, which has the
largest number in the United States.
1t Is expected that the total enroll
ment OF veterans will reach not less
than 5000 in Missouri.
Colonel Newman is anxious to
have a monument erected at the
grave, in Dover, Lafayette county
of the distinguished author, soldier
and journalist, MAJOR John N. Ed
wards. To that end he proposes tc
put into print again MAJOR Edwards
popular work, "Shelby AMI His
Men," and let the proceeds from the
sale of the book be devoted to the
monument fund. Colonel Newman
says that it is difficult now to hnC
this work, and that there is a stand
ing demand for it in various parts o
the country.

NATURES LOVERS.

BY 8. A, LYNCH.
The hunter loves the shadowy forest drear,
Where scudding fox and watchful turkey
hide,
The limpid, bubbling spring, where tlmid
deer
Drink cooling draughts, and then near by
abide;
with cautious step he threads the silent
wood,
'Tis here he freely finds his daily food.
The sturdy farmer ploughs the fallow deld,
And, t%rustful, sows the tiny, pregnant
grain,
While sunshine, soil and showers rich boun-
ties yield,
Unconscious all OF labor's art or pain;
The conquered earth to her rude conqueror
gives
Reward full large and free, and thus he lives.
The tourist seeks the perfume breathing
mead,
The cloud kissed hills that give a prospect
wide,
The rustic lanes where browsing cattle feed
And birds in chorus sing on every side;
Forgot is all the toll of busy mart,
When Joys Of boyhood days delight the
heart.
The artist, weary of his classic toll,
And longing for some bright, refreshing
scene,
Leaves far behind the dingy towns turmoil
And studies Natures ever-restful green;
Her beauties unadorned his thoughts con
troll,
And landscape visions cheer tn aesthetic
soul.
The poet, high-born seer, with instincts fine
And keener sight than use or art e'er knew
Discerns those nobler beauties, gifts divine
That teach mankind to love the good, tn
true;
With sky-lark notes his lofty genius sings,
And scars to heavenly heights on splr
wings.

Will Collier writes to the HARDWOOD
Citcsen OF "The White Sunbonnet:"N
1.-THE quaint Missouri white ~sunbonnet
is an emblem OF peace, plenty, pork and
beans. 1t is as much a part Of the state
as the big red apple, the clover bloom
and the whistIing quail. Looking down
the years l see it gaily travelling the q

and a promise OF greater triumphs yet to

JOHNS HUMILITY.

In the fifteenth year Of the reign OF
Tihsrius Caesar, when John was proba-
bly, thirty years Of age, "the word of God
came to John, the son OF Zacharias, in
In the wilderness. And he came into all
ths country about Jordan, preaching the
baptism OF repentance for the remission
| Of sins."
Clad In o coarse garment Of cameps
hsir, grit about the loins with q leathern
girdle, and feeding upon locusts and wild
honey, we can we'll imagine the impress
sion that would be made by such q per-
sonage a. he burst suddenly upon public
view, like q fash Of lightning out OF .
clear sky, boldly calling upon men every
where to repent Of their sims.
Crowds fiocked to him for baptism at
the Jordan, and he said unto them: 10

you TO fee from the wrath to GOMEZ Bring
forth fruits worthy Of repentance" etc.,

Then in verses 15 and 16 OF our lesson II
b said: "And a. the people were In

At . recent wedding In South

spread in front Of the channel. Il
resembled superb piece Of tapestry
but the whole design was worked In
natural flowers. There were sacred
emblems of the church wrought In
the centre Of this wonderful creation,
the petals Of q thousand flowers con-
tributing their gorgeous colors. The
yellow rose and chrometella formed
q border, with great clusters Of
violets and a~lternates Of purple wis

Ghost, all outlined on . fringe Of
