THE DoGwooD MUST GO.

1 Dogwood is good for bibbins and
 spools for cotton mills. Therefore we
 suppose the dogwood will have to go. l We printed few days ago the an-
 nouncement that carloads of it were be- 1 ing shipped from nearby station on 1 the Southern Railway.
 1 The dogwood timber is needed for the practical work of men, but we can not ] help wishing it had been otherwise. It is such gallant and beautiful son of
 the forest. It's broad white blossoms are displayed by the time the poplar is putting out it's first timid leaves. The dogwood is not afraid, We have seen it blooming while the snow fell against it's spotless petals.
 Tn the month of May, when the dog
 woods are blooming" is supposed ac- cording to an old Southern song, to be the most propitious time for making love. It is true that all of us have learned by old habit to take the bloom ing of the dogwood as the real begin blossom spangles the forests and we cafl see it from afar shining against the darkness of the evergreen or the bare limbs of the later trees we know that spring is near Something will be gone from our lives when the dogwood is taken away. Because it is useful, be- cause it's wood is hard and the fiber of which it is built is close, it is doomed.-- Greenville (S. CD News.

FIGHT WITH A WOODEN INDIAN
Lively Time in Front of Hoboken To-
 bacco Shop

i Lively Time in Front of a Heboken To- bacco Shop.
 The adage that the only good Indian is a dead Indian was strikingly borne out in an encounter witnessed by a startled gathering of spectators Thurs day night between Max Pfundheller and painted red man in front of Pfund- heller's cigar store, at PA Washington street, .Hoboken.
 The Indian was made of wood, but on Thursday night at least was very much alive. He had stood nightly in front of the cigar store, while through him led wire to an electric lamp which he held in his outstretched hand. The insula- tion of this wire burned out some time during Thursday evening, and the red man became "loaded'' with electricity When closing-up time came Pfundhel- Ter, uiet, inoffensive man, went out side, and, not knowing the red mans condition, grasped him rather roughly around the waist and seized the out stretched hand, intending to carry him into the store.
 The next moment pedestrians were startled to see MT. Pfundheller and the
 
 locked in deadly embrace. First the cigar dealer was on top, then the h. dian seemed to have the advantage. but Pfundheller, although writhing in ago. ny, held on, apparently, for dear life to the Indian. Judging from his howls he 1 seemed to be having the worst of it, but he would not let go.
 Several friends of MT. Pfundheler, knowing him to be teetotaler were mortified to find him thus engaged. A big crowd gathered, but did nothing for few moments, while Pfundheller and the Indian fought all over the sidewalk. Finally an old friend of Pfundl1ellers seized hold of him to try and drag him loose, only to be sent flying back a dis tance of several feet, with every nerve in his body tingling with pain Several part1sans of the cigar man on the out skirts of the crowd who could only get

fitful glimpses of him got the impress sion that he was fighting a real Indian. Knife him, Pfundheller!" yelled one, hearing the cigar mans yells. Choke him! Kill him!" advised oth- CTS.
 Finally a shrewd mans arrival on the scene gave things new aspect. Rush ing into the store he turned a switch and MT. Pfundheller fell to the sidewalk, broad streak burned across his hand, He explained later that having grasped the Indians hand. he couldn't let go. The Indian bruised and battered, was picked up and carried silently into the store-NeW York Times.

MUSTARD AND PEPPER NOT FOOD
 The Pennsylvania State authorities meet all sorts of obstacles to their suits against persons who violate the pure food laws. Juries some times have un- expected opinions. Twelve talesmen in Monroe County decided that mustard is ont an article of food, and North ampton County jury agreed that pepper is in the same class as mustard Hence in these instances the pure-food laws were not supposed to have been violated.

The South Carolina veterans will car- ry to the Confederate reunion at Louis- vile, May 30 to June 3, the famous flag of the Palmetto Regiment. The flag probably has a more interesting history
 than any flag in the country. The flag was presented to the South Carolina regiment by General Scott at the City of Mexico, to be carried in lieu of the tattered banner which had been pre- sented to the regiment by the ladies of Charleston in 1S46. The flag was car- ried through the entire war from Vera Cruz and all through the valley. It was the third if not the second, flag planted on the walls of Chapultepec. The flag was placed above Garita de Belen by General Quitman in person on Septem- Der 13 1S47. It was the first flag plant ed on the walls of the City of Mexico. having been hauled up by the South Caroliniane three hours before any other division entered the city.
 The historic flag was loaned to the Second South Carolina Regiment of the late war and carried to Cuba. It was hoisted over Moro Castle. The flag is probably the only one in the United States that was carried in the two for eign wars that the United States has engaged in, and it is the only flag that has been hoisted over the capitols of the two countries with which the United States went to war. It was brought back from Havana in a powder sack and returned to the Palmetto Regiment survivors.
 The original flag of the regiment was captured" by Sherman's regiment when it passed through Chester, s. c. The original flag was pierced with 27 balls, the staff was shot down twice. one officer was killed under one officer mortally wounded and three were ed.-Baltimore Sun.
