Odd Fellow Items.

Editor Herald: We come again with a
few items from Odd Fellow.
The Odd Fellow Sunday School is a
little dull just now, owing to so much
rain and cold weather.
Our public school is not in session this
term, AS the patrons failed to secure
teacher. The writer presided over this
school for several terms, but gave way
this time thinking a change IN teachers
might result in good. This has been the
means of no school here, and it make us
feel sad to see the children without the
advantages of a school.
We understand that Mr.. l.. A. Avra
has moved his family into our nelghbor-
hood We welcome them as neighbors.
Mr.. E. Rounsaville and sons are very
busy winding up their tnrpentine bust
ness for this season, and converting ca ne
into syrup for the community.
The weather is very bad for grinding,
but, however. it is a sweet time.
1t has been the fortune of the writer to
preside as principal teacher over the
Mineral Spring School this term. Opened
Nov 81, enrolled "a, made a daily aver
age of Is first month. And now it is
Wednesday afternoon, Dec. %, and the
keen pop of the OK whip and the contin-
ued rattle of freight wagons remind us of
the % of Dec. So we have thoughtIbest
to suspend school until after Christmas
holidays are over. We meet with many,
perhaps the majority, who seems to think
that all that is required of them Christ
mas is to send for a jug. Never for the
first time realizing that we should
commemorative birth of the Son of Mary
and Son of Joseph, the Savior of the
world, the Savior of poor fallen sinful
man, How is this we wonder. Oh let
us stop and think what Christmas is.
Where are you Brother Teachers, we
seldom hear from you, however we wish
you a Happy Christmas.
Mr. E, Rounsaville is not through max
ing mollases yet. The Capt having
a sweet time this year.
Mr.. w. A. Mills is making mollases
this week.
Mr. T..J. Beard is very busy hauling
logs for Ditch company.
Messrs Beed and Mills are hauling logs
for the. Ditch company,
Everette and Auzie Breland have been
very busy having their fathers sugar
cane converted into mollases- made 120
gallons this year.

MR.. DAVIS LAST SPEECH.

The Charleston News and Cour-
Ter, referring to the Presidents
speech at Montgomery and the
patriotic fervor with which it was
received, says that no man would
have been more pleased at this
illustration of the friendly feeling
between the North and the South
than Jefferson Davis. For proof
of this, it cites Mr.. Davis last
speech, which was made at Missis
sippl City III 1888. He said:
"Men in whose hands the destl
MES OF our Southland lie, for love
Of her | break my silence to speak
to you few words of respectful
admonltiOn. The past is dedd-let
it bury lis dead, its hopes, and it's
aspirations; before you lies the
future-a future full of golden
promise, future expanding nation.
al glory, before which all the world
shall stand amazed. Let me be-
seech you to lay aside all rancor all
Wtter Sc ctl0nal feeling, and to take
your places in the ranks OF those
who will bring about a cousumma.
ton devoutly to be desired-a re-
united country"
The Baltimore News comments
as follows upon the above quota
ton taken from the last address
delivered by Mr.. Davis TO the
southern people whom he loved
and who loved him:
Jefferson Davis did as much as
any other man to allay sectional
animos;ty in the South. At the
j time when the sire eaters" Of the
North were waving the bloody sbir
most frantically Mr.. Davis wa,
coUnseling patience and c0urag,
and forbearance. No man woulC
be more pleased than he at the evi
dence we have had of late of tn,
fact that North aud South are
ready to forget that there was
Civil War"

TOLD HIS CLAM STORY.
How n Funny Detroit Man Won His
Cnse with the Jury.

How n Funny Detroit Man Won His
Case with the Jury.
Marshall P. Wilder, the funny little
man, is charged with having with
malice aforethought and evil intent
sprung a few of his tales on jury and
thereby turned their verdict in his di-
rection, says the Detroit Journal.
A few weeks ago Marshall came to
town and in the circuit court sued DR..
Hercules Sanche on promissory note
for $1,000. He won the case, and now
the counsel for the defense has applied
for a new trial on the ground that the
jury was improperly Influenced.
The lawyer says that during recess
Marshall went out into the hall and
told the jurymen lot of funny stories,
including that one about the New Jer-
sey clam digger who fed his family on
CLAIMS so long that their stomachs rose
and fell with the tide. That settled it,
the Sanche lawyer. says, and the ian
who laughs was solid as a boarding
house biscuit with the jury. They went
into court, he says, and chuckled out a
verdict in his favor.
The counsel for the defense says
Wilder's jokes would win favorable
verdict from jury of pine stumpA
hence the application for new trial.
