THAT DEAD DUCK.

Yes, ,t was certainly dead. The
tragedy occurred on the / 8 of Octo-
Der and the witnesses thereof were a
lady and two gentlemen of Hopeside.
The victim was a wild duck.
On the afternoon of October 18th
it was padding through the waters
of Dividing Greek and thin king of
the pleasnes Of life, when a sports
man standing on Harvey's wharf
raised his gun and fired at the duck,
killing it instantly-so he said. AS
he stood there one of the problems
OF life came to him, as they so un-
expectedly come to all, how was he
TO get his duck when it was amid
stream and he was standing on the
wharf. The duck was dead. He
had killed it. He could not let it
go. But the tide swept on, taking
bis Duckship with 1t. Just then
boat came in sight and with eager
pleading in his tones he asked if the
young lady and gentleman would
row down the creek after the duck
which was now some distance from
them.
The answer came promptly; "Yes;
and we will take you with us, but
better bring your gun; that duck
isn't dead" "Ob, yes, i killed it."
So assured was he of the fact that
he left his gun and jumped in the
boat and the gallant young gentle
man rowed quickly towards the
duck. But was it dead? One said
1t was, the other said it was not.
The sportsman wsgered ten dollars
that it was dead, "the other fellow"
staked teh that it was alive.
The boat was rapidly nearing its
object. The excitement was in
tense, as in breathless anxiety they
watched the little black object. The
boat was very near, when that dead
duck with a graceful fiirt of his
wings lifted himself from the water
and scared above their heads, amid
the shouts of laughter from two of
the party. Yes, that duck was dead,
and a certain gentleman is now rated
as the crack sportsman of Hopeside.
But to make the story complete
the duck thought the gentleman
would take the hint to ego way
back and sit down." so he perched
himself on pine tree. Seeing this,
the boating party rowed ashore and
the sport with nlmbie feet and much
grace rushed TO the point where he
had left his gun, and this time he
was successful. AS he marched away.
holding his trophy aloft, he prom
ised the young lady certain joint
of roast duck. III. G. NJ.

WANT LOCAL ROAD LAWS.

Mr.. Turnbull defended the report
of the committee requiring road laws
to be regulated by local boards in
stead of by the Legislature, saying
that road laws were passed by the
Legislature on the recommendation
Of one man, its member, and it was
better to let it be passed by four or
five intelligent members of county
board. The speaker concluded his
long and very able argument with
fervid and impassioned plea for an
honest and sincere effort on the part
of every member to carry out the
purposes for which they were called
here by the people of the State. He
declared that if there were members
in the convention who had come
here with the deliberate purpose to
defeat every measure by which others
were seeking to relieve the State of
the numberless officials to the gov
ernment, the least they could do
would be to lie down and let
the majority run over them. He
related the biblical account of how,
when thousands of the children of
Israel had assembled to war against
the Midianites, all the weak-hearted,
towards aud malcontents were weeded
ont from the ranks until they were
reduced to a few thousand. Again
the test of sincerely, enthusiasm and
determination was made until only
three hundred first class fighting
soldiers were left, and that this small
body of devoted patriots fought and
won the battle of deliverance over
thousands of the enemy.
The people of Virginia, he said,
had been in bondage for thirty years.
They thought they had selected one
hundred of their truest and most
loyal sons to fight their battle of re-
trenchment and reform in this con-
vention and if any member had
secured entrance here for the pur-
pose of putting their own selfish
interests forward and to place
obstacles in the way of every effort
at relief, it were better for him that
a millstone were hanged about his
neck and he were cast into the midst
of the sea.
Mr.. Turnbull was loudly applaud
ed at the conclusion of his forcible
illustration.

AND ROOSEVELT
IFrom Richmond TymesJ


In striking contrast with the re-
markable conduct of President
Roosevelt in entertaining a negro at
his table in the White House are the
utterances of President Lincoln on
the subject of social and political
equality between the races.
Reference to the journals of the
Underwood Convention shows that
the minority report Of the Suffrage
Committee of that body quotes from
Mr.. Lincoln's speech made at Colum-
bus, Ohio, in his canvass for the
Senate against Stephen A. Douglas,
as follows:
"l am not, nor ever have been, in
favor of bringing about in any way
the social and political equality of
the black and white races. am not
in favor of making voters or Jurors of
negroes; of qualifying them to hold
Office, or TO intermarry with the
whites. / am as much in favor as
any man of having the superior
position assigned the white race"
Prominent Democratic leaders are
beginning to express the fear that
the Republican party under the new
leadership of President Roosevelt
will attempt again to foist a force
bill upon the people of the South.
Their faith has been shaken in the
President by his recent dining with
Booker Washington in the White
House, and they say they believe it
forecasts All effort to bring about
another attempt to pass force bill,
and to otherwise taunt the Southern
people with governmental policies.
IL does seem that whatever degree of
confidence the new President bad
built up among the Southern people
by his declarations to stand 10y the
policies of his distinguished pre-
decessor has been deliberately cast to
the four winds by his recent remark
able departure from the usual way
of conducting the social side Of life
in the White House.

WHY sOMEwOMEN AREINyALIDs
Ambitious Parents Overload Their
Daughters With Accomplishments.

daughters W ltn Accomplishments
The insane desire of fond parents
that their children shall "shine" in
their studies and accomplishments
is one topic vigorously dealt with by
Edward Box In the Ladies' Home
Journal of recent issue. Regarding
the girls side of this widespread evil
he says: "There are parents who,
not content with the studies which
their daughters have to grapple
with at school, load them down with
n few special studies in the finer
arts. / have in mind now several
young girls between the precarious
ages of 10 and IL, who, after they
return from school, have M extra
dose of painting, music, or Ian
guages. But my daughter must know
something of these things is the
protest OF the fond mother. 'She
must be able to hold her own with
the other girls Of her set OF
course, the girl at this tender age,
with such q mental load, soon goes
to pieces. She becomes anaemic,
Iistless, and nervous, and then the
mother wonders why! To build her
up everything under the sun is
tried except lesseniug of mental
work and the unnatural strain upon
the nervous system. The girl de-
velops into what? A bundle of
nerves encased in q most fragile
frame, her physical vitality sapped
almost to the last drop. And in
this condition she enters the mar
riage state! And yet we wonder why
there are so few women absolutely
free from organic troubles. Is it go
inexplicablc?"

Importance of Good Roads.

Too much attention cannot be
paid to the good-roads movement.
Its success means more to the farm
ers than the winning of any war.
The advance that is made when the
agriculturist is in immediate and

the world is a wonderful one. The
money value of his products is in
creased by a large percentage. He
is placed in daily communication

THINGS THAT WERE NOT DONE.

In his testimony recently Capt.

ing to one of Assistant Hanna's more
or less impertinent interrogatories,
Capt. Cook, with admirable self-re-
straint, remarked: "That is all con-
lecture. What we did was success
ful, aud what we didn't do had not
anything to do with it."
This is an epigram that will pass
into history along with Dewey's

Compared with the peevish specula-

tie note of details aud they are
right. Nobody cares whether the
Nelson's. the Washingtons, the Ma
poleons, the Grants got drunk,
gambled, wore dirty shirts, or
squinted. The important question
is whether they accomplished the
task to which destiny assigned
them. Posterity has nothing to dc
with their personal characteristics,
their eccentricities, or their afflic-
tons. There was duty to dis
charge, a consummation to be
achieved-did the man prove equal
to the occasion? That is the only
