in the matter of details, owing to the i'll
ness of the brides father, Senator Jones

The minister who will perform the cere-
mony, which will occur at Mount Vernon
NJ E. Church, on Wednesday, April IL, at
noon, will be the Rev DIR. Hunter. OF Ar
kansas, who performed the marriage cere-
mony for the parents of the bride. Mr..
James Kembrough Jones, jr., will give his
sister in marriage and the maid of honor
will be Miss Taylor. OF ST. Louis. The
ceremony will not be so elaborately beau
tiful as had been intended. but even with
the enforced changes will be pretty af-
fair. Senator Jones is convalescing so sat-
isfactorily that it Is, believed by his ply
sicians and family thai a summer spent
at his favorite resort on Lake Minnetonka
Mimi. will bring him back to his usual
sturdy condition.

BEATRICE HARLOWE.

Der the breadth of a great republic,
From ocean to ocean borne.
Wherever the stars of her banner
Clean out to the light of morn;
From the depth Of her grain-sown valleys
The slopes of her wooded hills,
In the song Of her wind-swept prairies,
The rhyme of her peaceful rills, .--
Comes the noiseless tramp of an army,
- Shadowy, silent and gray r.. ~
An army, though vanished its legions,
Yet lives in our hearts to-day.
Not with branches of yew nor cypress,
he. But with roses and blossoms sweet;
With amaranth and laurel above them,
And heart fair at their feet
While softer than winds of the summer,
.:t5 And sweeter, than roses bloom, 80.
Are the memories and love which gather
And brighten each silent tomb
And though Time in his march triumphant
Bends all to his final sway
Yet the touch of the Great Eternal
Is nearer than he to-day.

A party of young people who have been
teaching school in this county for the

at Harperville and vicinity last week.
The party consisted of Messrs. J. Johnson
Carl Eley, Misses Gertrude Eley, Stella

Steele is an old friend of We editor and it

Information reaches us of the death of
an old landmark of Greene County hear
i.daf9 recently, in the person of Mr.. II
G. Cochran. Deceased was well-lnown
in all parts of the county, and many
mourn his loss. He had reached the
mature age of seventy-three years. The
Herald extends sympathy to the bereaved
relatives and friends.
Our contemporary, the Ellisville News,
in its issue of March Ord reproduces two
columns of articles from the Herald in
recar'. to the State Senatorship. We
hope that the OTHER papers Of the district
will wake up and get interested in this
controversy, and let us see what they
have to say and what there are in favor
of.
We regret to learn that that old ven
cradle gentleman, Mr.. Lynn Turner, has
been so unfortunate as to break his leg
while dropping corn in the field. Mr.
Turner was so unlueky to fall, and in
falling twisted his leg in such way
that the strain was too much and cause
The fracture. 1t will probably be some
time before Mr.. Turner will he able to be
out again on both legs:
Mr.. L. J. Smith, of Jackson, Miss, and
who is an aspirant to the State Auditor
ship, stopped in our town a day last week
feeling the pulse of our people politically.
No doubt in consequence Mr.. Smith will
poll many votes in the county. Mr..
Smith will make a good officer to this
post il selected by the people of Missis-
sippi there is hardly a more competent
man to be found. Mr.. Smith has twelve
years experince in the Auditors Office at
all the different desks, and our readers
can readily see that he will be the man
for this place.
Again we have the pleasure of men
tioning the arrival and departure of
that affable gentleman, Mr.. Chas. Gang
don, of Hattiesburg. Mr.. Cangdon

here in our midst at the head of a

the strongest solicitation that can
be given from all parts of the county
