Mr.. a. G. Wolfe, of Dundee, Mo-,
who travels for Mansur & Tibbetts,
Implement Co., Of st. Louis, gives
travelling men and travellers in gen.
eral, some good advice. Being a
Knight Of the Grip he says, Il
have for the past three years made
it rule to keep myself supplied
with Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, and have
found numerous occasions to test it's
merits, not only on myself, but on
others as we'll. I can truly say that
I never, in a single instance, have
known it to fail. I consider it one
of the best remedies travellers can
carry and could relate many instances
where have used the remedy on
skeptics, much to their surprise and
relief. 1 hope every travelling man
in the U. S. will carry a bottle of
this remedy in his grip For sale

not trust them. They say they will
watch for the first sign of disloyalty

them over to the American soldiers.

SURPRISING ths 1llitesats Vote.

The supreme court of the United
States has sustained the validity OF
the Mississippi election law. This
law was enacted for the purpose OF
"suppressing", by legal methods the
illiterate negro vote Of the State, and
imposes among other qualifications a
rigid educational restriction. The
result has been to disqualify the
majority of the negro voters OF the
State and to assure white supremacy
in State and local administrations.
The supreme court of the United
States holds that as the election law
applies to illiterste whites as well as
to the ignorant colored voters, the
restrictions imposed by the statutes
are "within the field of permissible
action under the limitations imposed
by the federal constitution

She finally discovered a way to recoV-

Bill Arp's Letter.
Tells a Good Story of General Joe
Wheeler.

Wheeler.
Atlanta Constitution.
They say that Joe Wheeler forgot
himself at Santiago when the Span
iards fired their deadly volleys from
the brush, and be spurred his steed
forward and shouted, "Charge EN-
boys!" Charge the damn yankees;
run 'em out of the brush!-the damn
Spaniards, I mean!" And now they
tell it on General Lee that when his
handsome blue uniform came and
his wife took it out of the case, he
looked at it with solemn countenance
and said: ''Put it back, wife; let it
stay there while till I can get re-
cancelled. I'm afraid I might shoot
at it all of a sudden"
The boysin camp get up mary
joke, and they go on the grand
rounds, and that reminds me OF Pat
Doolan, a fresh Irishmap, who was
put on picket and ordered to let no
man pass without the password.
When the officer came round to
change the guard, Pat challenged him
with, Halt, be Jesus, and give the
password" "Oficer on the grand
rounds" said the lieutenant. "Grand
rounds and be damned to ye", said
Pat, ''an' if ye don't come forward
and Bull Run, I'll be after shootin'
into ye, Mr.. Grand Rounds"
The boys say that down at Camp
Grifin, when q new recruit comes in,
the devilish fellows take him off to
drill him. Young man, you must
remember the Maine, and also re
member that you are a private.
When you meet an officer you must
salute him and say, I am your dog,
sir and the officer will wave his hand
and smile and say, I know it, and
pass on" They haze the green ones
as bad as college boys haze verdant
freshman. There is many q wag
around the camp fires and they spice
the weary hours with wit and wis
dom. The average soldier bears 10
malice, not even toward the foe he
has been sent to fight. Cervera and
Hobson are the best of friends and
if it is possible for US to Ike Cervera,
it is possible that the people who
placed him in high command have
some redeeming virtues. In our
civil war the privates Of both armies
exchanged civilities on the picket
lines. Stonewall Jackson rebuked
them and once when picket brought
him a New York paper be refused it,
said: "Take nothing from them, si' !;
and give them nothing but lead.
They are our enemies" But the
common soldier has not considered
the casus belli, the aggravation from
national standpoint nor can he,
like Cromwell or Stonewall Jackson,
worship God by killing his country's S
foes.
A soldiers life is a good training
school, and he soon loses some OF his
conceit and selfshness. When a
boy who has been humored and
petted at home becomes a schoolboy
and has to rub against other boys,
he soon learns to give and take and
tote fair with his schoolmates. Just

Poet and Queen.

DR.. Max Muller relates that the late
queen of Holland frequently came to
England and was fond of meeting while
there distinguished literary people. On
one occasion she lunched with Dean
Stanley and asked him to invite several
Literary men, among whom were Tenny-
son, Lord Hcughton, Huxley and Max
Muller himself. l.sr. ~ ,..'
Luncheon was ready, and everybody
had come to the deanery except Tenny-
son. Dean Stanley suggested that the
queen refused to sit down before the
laureate's arrival. There was another
period of waiting, painful to all tn
company. ...
Finally some one suggested that prob
ably Tennyson was incoming about in
the cloisters somewhere. One was sent
to see, and the poet was indeed found
there, apparently oblivious that any
thing was going on. He was brought in
and placed at the table next the queen
of the Netherlands. ."r. ~.
The queen took the conversation into
her own hands and in particular tried
to draw Tennysou out. He was not in
talking mood. She addressed him a
question. e.-. r.. y.

Then there wasanother question.
'''No, ma am, came from Tennyson.
Again she asked his opinion about
something. The question was not sus-
oeptible of answer byttYes" Of" No. |"
,"Ma'am,' said Tennyson after q
great effort, 'there is a great deal to be
said on both: sides of: the. question. - !;

Max Muller. II wish they had put some
of you talking fellows next to regina. >"

A FAMOUS MULBERRY TREE.
Planted by Milton In Christ's College Gar
dens, Cam bridge.

Planted by Milton In Christ's College Gar.
dens, Cambridge.
In the gardens of Christ's college.
Cambridge, stands a venerable mulberry
tree. which. TRADITION says, was planted
by Milton during the time when he was
q student at the university. This would
be between the years 1924 and 1882,
for the following copy, from the Latin
of his entry of admission, accurately
fixes the former date, and his admission
to the degree Of M. A., to which he pro-
ceeded in the latter year, ended his in
innate connection with the university:
"John Milton, native of London. son
Of John Milton, was initiated in the
elements of letters under Mr.. Gill, mas
ter of st. Paul's school; was admitted
lesser pensioner Feb. 10, 1894, under
Mr.. Chappell and paid entrance fee,
1Os." He was then l6 years and 2
months old.
The tree SO intimately associated
with his name is now much decayed,
but in order to preserve it as much as
possible from the ravages of time many
of the branches have been covered with
sheet lead and are further supported by
stout wooden props, while the trunk has
been buried in mound of earth. The
luxuriance of the foliage and the crop
of fruit which it annually bears are
proof of it's vitality, but to insure
against accidents and perpetuate the
tree an offshoot has been planted close
by. In the event of bough breaking
and falling it is divided with even JUS
tice among the fellows of the college,
and many pieces are thus preserved as
mementos of the poet. 1t was during
his residence at Cambridge that he COM
posed his ode, "On the Morning of
Christ's Nativity "Lycidas," too, is
intimately connected with Milton s life
at the university, since it was written
in memory of Edward King, his college
friend and contemporary, with whom
he doubtless shared the same rooms.
In those days students did not, as
now, occupy separate apartments. as
witness the original statutes of the col
lege, ,"In which chambers our wish is
that the fellows sleep two and two, but
the scholars four and four" in conse-
uuence of which much closer intimacy
was formed among them than is now
possible. DR.. Johnson relates that Mil
ton was fogged at Cambridge, but the
fact is doubtful, though there is reason
to suppose that he had differences with
the authorities in the earlier part of his
college career, since he was transferred
from his original tutor. This tree is
still pointed out to visitors and was un-
til recent years especially marked by a
bough of mIstletoe growing upon it
