Answered the Roll Call.

One by one the old confederates answer the final roll call. Last Monday when the great Captain called the name Of F. T. Jsaiford, he answered as promptly as of yore, and his spirit passed away to a happier life.
 Squire Raiford was well-known in St. Francis county. He was GA years of age, he came to this city ten years ago from Byhalia, Mississippi, and had been elected several times as magistrate of Madison township. He was member of the 17th Mississippi infantry. and served gaIantry through the civil war. As a citizen, the squire was among the best as a compan. ion none held a closer place among his friends--both white and black. He was member of the N B. Forrest Camp Confederates No. 6a3, and was always foremost in turthsring the cause of the old soldier.
 The Squire had been feeble for the past two years, and was taken to Memphis for treatment, and for a while it was thought he would improve, but age and debility were against him, and notwithstanding the aid rendered by the best physicians and the careful nursing of devoted rela- tives he passed away Monday morning at 10 o'c' 'ock, at the residence of his son. in-law, MT. Ike Mallory.
 He leaves two daughters-Mrs. c. N. Laughinghouse and Mrs. Ike Mallory = and son in Memphis, to mourn their loss, to whom the sympathy of all who knew the Squire are extended.
 The remains were inferred in .he Mt Vernon Cemetery Tuesday morning at II o'clock under the auspices of the Masonic Lodge, Rev. w. H. Dyer of the Metho- dist church officiating. assisted by Rev. J. J. Cornish of the Episcopal church When all the ceremonies were completed, his old companions in arms gathered around the grave, while the bugler of the camp sounded Taps"

T E TITLE OF NICHOLAS II.
Said Not to Be a Corruption Of the Word
Caesar.

caesar.
The national title of the Russian
sovereign is not, as it has been said
by some etymOlogist, more ingenious
than educated, the corruption of the
word caesar, like the Germanic kaiser,
for instance, says the Paris LEvene-
ment. The cause of this error is that
at the beginning of the eighteenth
century We only knew the Russians
through the Poles, with whom we had
international intercourse long before
we got acquainted with the Musco-
vites. The word GEAR is the Polish
form Of the word "tsar." with a slight
difference Of pronunciation which
distinguishes the two words derived
from the Slavonic language. We
know that all the Russians, like all
the Slays, belong to the Greek
church, use the Cyrillic alphabet con-
tanning 80 signs, still employed in the
sacred language, but reduced to 81 in
the common language. The Catholic
Slavs, like the Poles, having kept the
Latin alphabet of "A signs, were COM
PEELED to resort to combinations Of
double letters to take the place of the
"sibilant" consonants which are
found in the Cyrillic alphabet. The
"cz" forms one Of these combinations;
hence the Polish photography which
was adopted at first by some illustri-
Gus writers like Voltaire and Saint
Simon. The same rule applies to the
derivatives of the word tsar; tsarine,
tsarevna, tsarevitch, which some au-
thors persist in writing c%zarine, car
evna, czarewitch. These words are
even spelled cesarine, c%aserevna and
cesarevitch, as a tribute to their i'm
aginary origin. But the word "tsar"
has no Latin etymology;i it is not the
translation ofthe word Caesar" The
proof Of it is hat Peter the Great add
ed the title imperator to his title of
tsar during the first years Of his reign.
Concerning the true etymology Of
"tsar" we may be obliged to look for
it in the Persian "sar," which means
king, and is an old Chaldean word.

OLD-TIME HOSPITALITY.

son of Change Suggested.

Hospitality is not as hearty and
generous as was the cease some 30 OF 40
years ago." observed the man who
prides himself in being a keen OBJ
server Of social changes, according to
the Washington Star.
Following the custom which is OBJ
served always by those who frequent
one particular corner Of the club, the
speaker was given an opportunity to
develop his thought. He proceeded
to do so. "When l was a young man."
he went on, people thought nothing
Of dropping in at a friends house to
take a meal or to stay all night. You
would hardly dare to take such a lib
erty nowadays. Even when due no
tice is given the coming Of a guest into
the household is apt to be a cause of
much careful planning"
"You may recall" said one Of the
group, taking advantage Of a pause,
"thatat the time the social custom you
speak Of prevailed domestic life was
not so elaborate as it is to-day. Then
at the meals the food was placed on
the table and the family served them
selves. Fewer servants were employed
and the female members of the family
did a good deal of the household work.
All that is changed. The domes-
tic machinery has become compli-
Gated and is easily put out Of order.
The coming of a guest means more
work for the servants and no addition
al compensation"
''The change" then said the first
speaker, SIS due in your opinion, to a
difference in the mode o. living rather
than in the contraction Of the spirit
of hospitality. don't know but you

ADDITION TO TRAINS.
The Meteor and "The Worlds Fair
Special to the Frisco System.

The route OF this flyer is via our old
line, through the OZarks and Indian Ter
ritory to Sapula, thence over the Red
River Division through the historic Greek
Chickasaw Nations, via Denison and
Sherman, to Fort Worth aud points
Southwest thereof; and via Sherman aud
the Houston & Texas Central Rail.
road to Dallas and Beyond. The more
newly-constructed portion OF the roadbed
traversed has been heavily ballasted with
rock, laid with heavy rail, and 10 every
way brought fully up to the standard Of
other divisions OF the Frisco System.
The train will be made up OF entirely new
equipment throughout, carrying Palace
Day Coaches, Reclining Chair Cars, Pull
man Drawing Room Sleepers and
CAFE OBSERVATION CARS,
In which meals a la carte will be served
at hours convenient to thu traveller.
This service will be under the manage
ment Of Mr.. Fred. Harvey, whose name
should be a sufficient guarantee Of careful
attention to the inner man. Just a word
about these cars: The dining room is To-
Gated 10 the forward end. The rear por-
tion OF this car is occupied by an obser-
walton saloon, and is provided with easy
chairs, writing decks and stationery, and
a library service embracing the leading
daily papers and the more popular weekly
periodicals. The train will be lighted
by electricity. and cooled by electric fans
during the summer months.
TO THE TRAVELLING PUBLIC.
The Inauguration Of service Of
this character means quite as much to
it's patrons as 1t does to the railway com
pany interested. II we were not sanguine
OF the success Of this train, it goes with
out saying that 1t would never have been
established. 1t fills a long-ielt want and
opens a new and fast developing country.
But we feel that these are not the only
factors that may reasonably be expected to
contribute to Its success-the time is fast;
the train is a "handy" one, as regards
hours Of arrival at and departure from
terminI; and the equipment is ornate, and
provided with all modern conveniences.
These features should, Of themselves,
tend to make the train popular.
We also take pleasure 10 announcing
material improvements in our service via
Fort Smith and Paris to Texas and the
Southwest.

Most Ancient Inscription.

What is supposed to be themost an

recently at the university museums,
Thirty-fourth and Spruce streets.
The inscription is on a fragment of a
vase that was unearthed by the mu-

odate back at least 4 800 years before
the Christian era, and is therefore
more than 5000 years old. The gen
