Seen a Teller at the Southern,
With a heavy iron box,

Wore a dozen pair of sox,

Judgin' by his awkward way;
Seen him write in big characters:
"Circle City, U. S. A."
Seen a saddle-colored heather,
Wearin' earrings in his nose;

Most indecent lack o clothes.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Springfield (Mass) Republican Qnd)
says: "Aguinaldo's appeal for recognition
of Filipino independence may be very alb
surd, yet what a curious foot-note to his
tory are these facts: That a report IA
voring the same thing for a weaker and
less organized people was signed less than
three years ago by one of President Nc
Kinley's Secretaries of State was reput-
ed TO have been written by another of
his Secretaries of State, was signed by
two of his treaty commissioners to Paris
and favored by third, and lastly, was
signed by the Junior Republican senator
from Massachusetts"
The Cincinnati Commercial Dem
says: 1T must now be admitted that our
government entered upon the present war
without appreciation of its probable mag
nitude. OF course we had a right to as
sumo that we could do infinitely better
than Spain, but a the same time the fact
that tho Filipinos had been fighting the
Spdniards for more than century was
entitled to more consideration than it re-
ceiVed at our hands,
The P.ttsburg Post CDem.) says: IF
Secretary Root is a wise man he will re-
frain from issuing bulletins about what
he proposes 10 accomplish in the Philip
pines until he does something. II Is not

NJ. 0. Waggoner Of Toledo, the inhdel
who recently announced his intention OF
burning his books treating on agnosucism
and infideism, was converted to Chris
tianity In a novel manner. 1t is said he
had heard a sermon by an evangelist and
some things the preacher said had struck
him with more than ordinary force. That
night he was restless and could not sleep.
He had a talking machine In the room,
and in the darkness got up and selecting
cylinder at random put 1t in the ma
chine and started it. thinking its recita-
ton would divert his mind and induce
sleep. To his astonishment the room was
filed with the hymn "Praise God From
Whom All BLESSINGS Flow" and this was
followed by Rock of Ages C.eft for Ne"
Before the machine had ceased its music
Mr.. Waggoner found himself singing with
it and shouting the praises of the Lord.

rage 10 a northern city the liberty of the
negro there is curtaied.
There is no doubt that negro would
be lynched in New York. or in any
other part Of the North, for the crime
for which negroes are usually lynched in
the South, as promptly as they are in the
South. This case in New York will have
the effect of making northern papers less
venomous in their attacks on the South
ern people when lynchings occur in the
South. It will have a tendency TO make
them realize that under similar conditions
they would act just about as the Southern
people do.

DIR. H. P. ATKINS.

DR.. II. p. Atkins, father of
Mrs. a. b. Hubbard, OF Magnc-
liza, died January Gath, 1899, at
Excelsior Springs, Missouri, in
the 10Th year Of his age.
In announcing the sad event,
the Brookhaven Leader says;
DIR. Atkins was for many years
prominent figure in this county,
both in business and political
circles. He came to Lincoln
early in the seventies and during
his stay made many warm friends
He was n man of superior inteli-
gence, public spirited, honest,
bold and aggressive in every
cause that ho espoused. There
was never any doubt as TO where
pr. Atkins stood upon nny ques-
tion Of public interest. He was
a man OF positive convictions,
who never sweryed from duty or
shirlsed responsibility in any
emergency. He was built upon
a high plano and his thoughts,
ambitions and aspirations were
Of an elevated character. He
was that order of men who I'M
press their personality upon the
community in which they move,
not always popular men, but
leaving 10 doubt that they lived
as positive force in their day.
and as such he he will long be
remembered by those who knew
him.

fc m above. Pardon the remark,
but we are too much like the hog
which never looks up to him who
threshes down the acorns. /
read OF man once who, while
walking along a path one day,
found a five dollar gold piece,
and the story closed by saying
that he never looked up again.
All the rest OF his life he was
looking down for five dollar gold
pieces. There is a lesson in this.
We, too, have been finding bless
ings along the pathway Of life,
and like the man we continue to
look down for more, and we COM
plain il we do not find them. N
| notice in these hard times
that a great many people seem
more Indifferent TO their religious
duties than ever before. Go to
church and we find only few,
OIL how few. As we look around
on the empty seats we feel like
asking with the Master, "Wore
there not ten cleansed, but where
are the nine?''
Month after month the pastor
looks in vain for those whose
presence and help he has a right
TO expect, but he is as often dis
appointedand saddened. II does
seem that the gloom and dis
couragement are such that many
have forgotten God. When
Abraham Lincoln was assassin
ated it was Mr.. Garfield, be-
iieve, who made the famous re-
mark, "God reigns, and the
government at Washington still
lives I"
1t is even so. now, friend.
Amid all these discouragements
and difficulties God reigns, and
this world, with it's seedtime and
harvest, its summer and winter,
its day and night, still rolls on.
DON stay at home and grieve
over conditions you cannot con-
trcl, but go out TO the house OF
God, do your duty, be more
cheerful, liberal and prayerful,
and a brighter day will come.

Look here a moment, my
friend, just listen to my words:
Don't be SO willing to be Offend
ed. | have noticed you are very
sensitive and quick to suspect a
fancicd wrong. There are many
reasons why you should not lie
thus.
One is: 1t makes you very un-
happy. Yo know how much you
brood over some fancied injury
you received. You think about
it when alone. You wake in the
night and recall how somebody
has ill-treated you. This ruffles
your spirit, destroys your inward
peace, nurtures in you unpleas-
ant feelings AMI sometime,
thoughts and schemes OF retalia
ton and revenge. The effect OF
such a spirit is at last seen n the
face, discerned in less kindly
eyes, and even the voice loses its
melody and sweetness. The con
nection between spirit and body
is so close and vital that the in
teractions are sure and effective.
Then again, this makes you
less agreeable to others, and
what you in an evil hour fancied
becomes realities. Offenses and
sights will be given because
many will not be so anxious to
please you. You know when we
have a sore on foot, or hand. or
arm, some one all the while jog
giles us and hurts us right on that
sore spot. So exactly If we carry
sore feelings, sore spirits and a
sore heart into society, some
careless one or-cruel one will
surely manage 10 hurt us-and
sometimes / think on purpose.
Now, il that spirit Injuries you
SO much in respect to yourself /,
and units you for a social life, il
must be very injurious to your
Christian life; for that involves
Iall other OF life 8 relations, and
takes more. You can not be o
happy, trustful, amiable and con-
genial Christian when you are
fermenting with a sense Of injur-
les received. Hence your influ
ence and power for good are
very nuch weakened. just reac

DIR. BENJAMIN HARRIS BRI.
LEY.


Death is always startling, come
in what man 1er il will. But when
one in the full vigor OF young
manhood without a moments
warning is hurled into eternity as
was Doctor Briley, it shocks the
community like a peal of thunder
from a cloudless sky. The large
congregation that gathered al
the Baptist church in Magnolia
last Sabbath afternoon evidenced
the chord OF sympathy that vi
brated in all hearts for the be-
reaved. DR.. Briley was horn at
the old homestead in Pike coun-
ty. April 30. 1866. When he was
about sixteen years Of age he
made confession OF his faith in
Jesus Christ. was baptized, and
received into the fellowship Of
the Bogue Chitto Baptist church.
His mind was bright, and his
cheerfulness exuberant. He was
fond Of mathematics, and his in-
genuity qualified him to be the
slSillful dentist he was. Some
years ago he gradually lost his
sense of hearing, finally becom-
ing entirely deaf. He learned
the lip language, SO as to know
what the members Of his own
family said 10 him, but he fell
out OF the habit Of church going.
and attending upon public meet-
ings, because he could notunder-
stand what was said.
He was a loyal, tender hearted, !,
dntiful son and brother in the
family, and this with his infirmity
made him the pet Of the houses
hold and the center of large
circle Of friends. He remained
unmarried for reasonsIbest known
to himself, From his home two
miles north on the railway he
was in the habit Of coming to and
going from his office in town on
a bicycle on the track, Satur-
day evening, returning home
and within a few steps Of the
point Of leaving the track, an en-
gine drawing a heavy through
freight train at full speed struck
the fatal blow, from which he
died two hours after.
DR.. Briley often conyersed
with the family upon the subject
OF religion. 1t was the custom
to gather around the fireside af-
ter supper and read the Bible.
The night before, he read for the
family circle the 25th Psalm
He habitually read his Bible,
prayed in private, and was q
firm believer in God and his gov
ernment Of all things. His death
causes a vacuum in that home,
| and especially in the bereaved
mothers heart, that this worlc
can never fill. And David said
"But now he is dead, wherefore
should fast? Can / bring hin
| him back again? | shall 90 tC
him, but he shall not return Il
me-" II. Sam. 1923.

us that while Col. Hobgood and
a young man by the name Of
Breeland we're riding through a
lane near the residence Of Jesse
G.. Afford in Washington parish,
La, some unknown person in
ambush, shot Col. Hobgood with
a shot gun. The shot We're mixed
from the size Of bird shot up 10
duck shot, hitting Hobgood all
the way from head to foot. The
wounds are painful, but not dam
gerous. Two Of the shot hit

one in the hand. Hobgood claims
to know who did the shooting,
but refuses to say whom he sus-
poets.

HARD TIMES VS.. RELIGION

Editor Gazette Perhaps not
since the civil war have financial
matters been more depressed and
times, generally, more gloomy
than at present. The long con-
tinued rains, causing heavy loss
es in the cotton crop, together
with the very low prices, are
given as the principle cause Of
this unhappy state of things. 1t
should be remembered, however,
that there might have been other
disasters which would have been
as hurtful as these, and even
more SO. The catipillar might
have devoured the cotton fields
in July; or there might have been
a drouth lasting from May to
September leaving the crops
parched and ruined. How sell
dom we stop to think that God
holds the seasons and the times
in his own hands; and how little
we remember that it Is in his
power to give us better days
If it be said that the Lord does
not regulate the cotton market OF
control the price, answer true,
we may be depressed by bad
legislation and wicked specula-
ton, still / believe we do nof
look to God as we should. Tht
Bible abundantly teaches tha'
all blessings and mercics which
we need or ever receive, come
