HOME AS HIS PALACE.
New York Herald.

In a little frame house that is hardly
more than a hut, just over Cemetery
HILL near Mount Vernon. Ohio, Daniel
Decatur Emmett, the author of the fam
Gus song, Dixie" is spending the clos
ing years Of a long life. He is now quite
feeble,
The aged minstrePs wants are few, his
tastes are simple. and he looks upon his
little home as a palace. The diminutive
house stands in the center of an acre plat
of ground. 1t faces the east, and the
front yard" slopes gently but unevenly
down to the dusty north and south road,
over which the stage coaches made regu-
lar trips between Mount Vernon and
Mansfield when Uncle DAN was boy.
The house has but three rooms-a hv-
Ing room, a bedroom and a ktchen-and
then there's an attic, which Mr.. Emmett
calls the files" The furniture is of the
simplest kind. Most of 1t old fashioned,
but ii is dear to Uncle Dams" heart, al
though his wife, who is his second, and
much younger than he, would prefer
something more pFetenttous.
The furnishings, too. are Anticipated,
and the walls are we'll nigh bare; but the
cottage is not untidy, and within has an
air of homely comfort. Chickens wander
at will about the yard, and through the
kitchen and living room.
They are not allowed to invade the bed
treated right royalty by neighbors and
visitors, for the sake of their master, live
on terms of amity and equality.
In winter Uncle Dams" domicile looks
bleak and uninviting. In summer 1t
stands unshaded from the glare of the
sun. 1t is only in the spring and fall that
the surroundings have the appearance Of
comfort. But Uncle Dan" is supremely
happy in this humble home.
Made Money and Spent II.
1--WE roamed great DEAL" said he,
land I've made lots of money and spent
it. ought to have taken care Of 1t, and
maybe now (withSa droll twist of the
mouth and a wink I'D be trust mag
nate. But really love my little home,
and the only bar to my happiness is that
sometimes hear the distant barking OF
the old wolf that terriies old age; and
then, too, people think and say that /
ought sometimes to dress up"
Dressing up Is really about the only
thing that Daniel Emmett breads. A few
years ago noted minstrel manager, Al
G. Field. who was about to tour the south,
offered Uncle Dan an. engagement. The
old minstrel was to ride in a carriage In
the parade.
He was to wear a dress suit of even
ings, and appear on the stage after the
flrst part and be introduced as the atl-
thor Of Dixie" All the remainder OF the
day was to his, with money to spend In
moderate sums. his salary to be paid him
at the end of his tour.
Uncle Dan accepted the engagement, and
In his fine clothes carried, himself as the
gentleman that he always is, no matter
what his dress; but when he came home
at the end of the season with fairly
snug sum of money In his pocket, he
very promptly. discarded all the tailor

made clothing with which he had been
provided and returned to the hand he
downs" he had previously worn.
And had IT not been. that household ex-
penses consumed his funds and left him
without money to replenish his wardrobe,
these good clothes would probably be
hanging In his narrow clothes press" to-
day.
Uncle Dan declares that the minstrels
of today do not put any real life into
their ballad singing, and that the negro
slxits introduced after the olio are tire
some.
Back in my day." he said. I'VE tried
to be as near like the plantation negro as
we could, and when we sang ballads we
put sentiment and feeling into them" IN
Gle Dan admitted that some OF the fea-
lures Of a modern minstrel performance
were pretty and clever, but insisted that
the shows do not now merit the title of
minstrels. They are, he declares, moth
ing but a refined imitation Of the old
variety" shows.
Last Appearance on Stage.
Mr.. Emmett's last appearance on the
stage was made two winters ago, when
the local Elks gave a minstrel perform
ance, and Dan agreed to be present and
sing Dixie" his favorite composition.
The opera houss was packed from orches-
ira to ceiling. The performance proceeded
with great success until the cue for Uncle
Dams appearance was given.
As he walked out upon the stage, straw
hat in hand, and bowling at every step, the
performers and audience arose, and a
mighty shout went up. AS the applause
died away the orchestra played the OPEN
ing bars OF Dixie and then began
again, but Uncle Dan was silent. Again
the leader of the orchestra started the

He stood with bowed head and eyes cast
down, as II unconscious of his surround
ings. The interloeutor. himself a vocalist
of no mean ability, began to sing the
words of Dixie" and was Joined by 9TH
ers on the stage and in the audience.
Suddenly Uncle Dan seemed TO awake.
He raised his head, threw up the hand In
which he held his hat, stamped upon
the stage and burst into song.
The others ceased to sing, and Uncle
Dan went on through the entire song with
great gusto. His voice rang out on the
lower notes, but trembled and broke on
the higher.
That's the way that Dixie should be
played" said Mr.. Emmett.
Uncle DAN" as he delights to be called
Is now growing feeble. He does not go
about as much as formerly, but when he
does he still scorns a vehicle and goes a
foot.
He delights to sit in the shade Of his lit
tie house, smoking a short, black pipe,
while he chats with his callers, talks to
the dog or cat, or gazes thoughtfully into
the east, where, as the sun goes down
behind tho hills beyond the Kogosing val
ley, the shadows lengthen until they touch

pretty cemetery near by, where the old
minstrel hopes finally to rest

Portland Evening Telegram.
The Hood river strawberry against the
world.
This is the verdict of General Passenger
Agent Craig, Of the o. r. & n. Co., upon
the far famed Hood river berry,
Mr.. Craig is enthusiastic over the quail
ity OF the Hood river berry, the large
production of this fruit, the great care ex-
ercised by the growers and shippers in
packing and the enviable reputation en-
joyed by the berry wherever it is mar
keted.
AS an evidence Of the superiority Of the
Hood river berry over the fruit from
other sections Mr.. Craig was told Of a
circumstance that recently occurred in
that point as a side issue handled some
fruit shipped to him on consignment. II
happened that he received shipments from
Hood river and Utah the same day
short time ago. The Hood river berries
were cleaned up in no time, netting the
grower, after deducting transportation
charges, commission, etc, 81 a crate II
was with difficulty that the Utah berries
were unloaded at $3.50 crate, which, az
ter deducting seventy cents crate for
freight and commission, left the grower
but eight cents a crate.
Mr.. Craig was pleased TO observe that
great care IS exercised in the handling
and packing of the Hood river berries.
There is not a bad berry in a carload ship
ment- Every berry is inspected and the
grower is made to realize that the high
reputation enjoyed by Hood river fruit
depends entirely. upon this extraordinary
care in the selection, handling and pack
ing.
The yield Of the Hood river berry
patches, Mr.. Craig learns. viii this year
approximate 10000 crates or 900 tons.
which isiabout 50 per cent in excess Of the
production of last year.

from a Kentucky friend. Her sleek glis-
tening skin and big round veins showed
her fine blood.
'Well, Nancy, it's your life now or a
mans, or maybe a dozen. You must take
us to Hambright In 50 minutes over these

gave her the reins. =
The mare bounded forward with a rush
that sent four spinning circles Of sand
and dust from each wheel. She had sell
dom felt the lines slacken across ner

gency. She swung past buggies and wag-
ons without pause. The people wonder
ed why the preacher was in such hurry.
over long sand stretches of heavy road
the mare flew in a cloud of dust. The
preachers lips were firmly set, and
scowl on his brow. They had made five
miles without slackening UP.
The mare was now a mass OF white
foam, her big veined nostrils wide open
and quivering. and her eyes flashing with
the fire of proud ancestry. The slacken-
cd lines on her back seemed to her an in
sufterable insult!
Doctor, you'll kill Nancy" pleaded

The LeOD0rdS Spots
Continuation of Chapter XIX.

At the approaching election, this white
terror could intimidate every negro in
the state unless he could arm them all,
suspend the writ of habeas corpus, and
place every county under the strictest
martial law.
Washington was besieged by a terrified
army Of the loyal who saw their oc-
cupation threatened. They begged for
more troops. more guns for negro militia,
and the re-establishment of universal
martial law until the votes were proper
~ counted.
But the great statesmen laughed them
to scorn as a set Of weak towards and
fools frightened by negro stories OF
ghosts. 1t was incredible TO them that
the crushed. poverty stricken and UNI
armed south could dare challenge the
power OF the national government. They
were sent back with scant comfort
The night that Ezra Perkins and Haley
got back from Washington, where they
had gone summoned by Legree and Hogg,
10 testify TO the. death of Tim Shelby,
they saw a sight that made their souls
quake.
At ten O'Clock the Ku Klux Khan held
a formal parade through the streets OF
Hambright. How the news was circu-
lated nobody knew, but it seemed every
body in the county knew OF It. the
streets were lined with thousands Of peo-
pie who had poured in town that after
noon.
At exactly ten O'Clock bugle call was
heard on the hill to the west Of the
town, and the muffied tread Of soft shod
horses came family on their ears. Wom-
en- stood on the sidewalks, holding their
babies and smiling, and children were
laughing and playing In the streets.
They rode four abreast in perfect order
through the town. It was utterly impos-
sfble to recognize q man or horse, so
complete was the simple disguise of the
white sheet which blanketed the horse,
fitting closely over his head and ears and
falling gracefully over his form toward
the ground.
No citizen Of Hambright was in the
procession. They were all In the street
watching II pass. There were nfteen
hundred men in line. But the reports
next day all agreed in fixing the num-
Der at over five thousand.
Perkins and Haley had watched II from
a darkened room.
'sBrother Haley, that's the end! Lord
I wish / was back in Michigan, jail or
no jail," said Perkins hopping the per-
spiration from his brow.
Wen have ter dig out purity QUICK i
reckon" answered Haley.
And 70 think them fools at Washing
ton laughed at usI'' cried Perkins clinch-
ing his fists.
And that night, mothers and fathers
gathered their children TO bed with
sense Of grateful security they had not
felt through years Of war and turmoil
