Were Pending is Contempt

Attorney George a. Davis has filed
petition in the Supreme Court to cite
High Sheriff Brown and Tailor William
Henry to appear and show cause why

! In his affidavit before the court to-
! day Davis declares that yesterday,
| July "a, he saw Edwards in a wagon
! dressed in prison stripes, going to work
! on the roads with other conVicts. He
! points out that while a habeas corpus
matter is pending a prisoner is out Of
the hands of the jailor so far as the
execution of a sentence is concerned.
and that in compelling Edwards to
work the High Sheriff and Tailor are
! in contempt of court
High Sheriff Brown takes another
/ view of the matter and so informed
! Davis before the affidavit and petition
were filed. When Davis threatened to
bring in a motion for contempt Brown

holes six feet each way, or in one long
row, and put shovel full of we'll

say five or six days, plant a hill be-
tween each two of the first ones. These
will come up about the time bugs show

putting ashes on the vines, and surer.
too.
The main thing after this is to keep
the ground loose around the hill, md
you can raise melons in spite Of drouth.
Should the bugs come early and attack
the first vines, they are all gone before
the others are up. A wheel hoe is the
best tool to use, hoeing twice week
at least. The seeds should be saved
from the earliest and largest melons,
providing they are sweet.

When Jefferson Davis was being con.
veyed to Fort Monroe, Va, where, MS
the world knows, he was incarcerated
for time, there were on. the vessel
with him, besides his wife and little
child, the latter about ~ years old,
several young Confederate officers who
were being carried North and who were
allowed the freedom Of the vessel.
Mrs. Davis was allowed no servant or
nurse to attend herself or child, and
the care of the latter devolyed on her
alone, says the Memphis Commercial
Appeal.
One Of the young officers in particu-
lar saw and noted the crushing weight
of agony depicted In the face of the de-
voted wife and loving mother. Could
he not, then, at least relieve her Of
some Of the care which fell upon her?
Yes, he could do that, and he would
try. He passed to the rear saloon Of
the vessel, and, with courtly grace,
bowed low in the presence of the noble
lady, and made known his mission.
The little child raised Its arms to him,
and he took 1t tenderly in his own.
The young officer paced the deck and
cabin floor with the child in his arms,
and much of the time during the entire
voyage, amused 1t in every conceivable
way.
That, little prattling baby-that beau
tiful child-was Miss Winnie Davis, the
loved Daughter of the Confederacy."
The young officer is now Major Gen.
cral Joseph Wheeler.

their natural destination will be those

this movement being to establish q
reserve for the volunteers exactly like
that which the army reserve and the
militia constitute In relation to the
regular army.
The originator of the whole big
movement Is the Earl of Meath, and
the man who has helped him most to
bring his dream to reality is one Paul
Kruger; for both Parliament and the
people 1t represents were never SO
ready for just this sort of thing as
they are to-day.
Lord Meath's efforts began In 1908,
with the formation of small band of
supporters, who founded a boy com.
pany called the British Brigade, at
the request of the head masters of the
several schools. exactly on the lines
that the new national system will
take. Lord Meath kept agitating the
subject, and now the war in South
Africa has given the needed Impetus
to the project. 1t has the endorsement
of Lord Roberts, of Generals Methuen
and Wolseley, and of host of men
prominent in every walk of life.

upon himself imperial attributes in that

exercise over the Porto Ricans Is little
less absolute than that exercised by the

Somebody who has access to the
quasi-privatc correspondence of a New

keep good thing to himself, makes

Kindly consider this Communication con-
fidcntial.
1t Is hardly necessary TO direct at
tchtion to the implication contained In
this friendly hint from one business
firm to another. The point which the
out-of-town concern wished PARTICULAR
ly to emphasize was that 10 amount
of attention bestowed upon Mrs. ---
would be thrown away, for the simple
reason that she was Mr.. IS second
wife. Long and careful study OF the

WINGED the intelligent mercantile class

else greater influence over the former
than any first wife possibly could We
are left in doubt as to why this should
be so, but people who are engaged In

of more than ordinary good Judgment
in dealing with humanity in general
and whose aim is always to please, are
not likely to err greatly when they as,

quoted above n suggestion for that
large and worthy element of our popu

explain the vagaries and ldIosyncra-

present instance there were special
reasons why the'New York firm should
be particularly pleasing to the second
