proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For All weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

a, a Nashville (Tenn. J special to
'sue Ficayune, dated Nov. 9Th,
"yst, Joylal. loquacious and NOS
WHIT crestfaIlen by his two
years and six month of prison life,
'uiius Moyss quit the Tennessee
state Penitentiary to-day and went
out into the world q free man.
Inc thFee years he was given has
oeeh served, barring six months,
q sort of compliment Uncle Sam
Pald him for being good during
MS term of imprisonment, by TAX
ing n off his sentence.
Moyse will be remembered as the
man who was sentenced to prison
ior lmpersonating an officer eli the
government. He posed as Cap
tain Clark, of the battleship Tex
rs. In the hurry and eonfu-
sion OF assuming the title as q ma
val hero he failed to remember
tnat Captain Clark commanded
the gallant old Oregon, while the
iamented Philip was then giving
orders on "Old Hoodoo, " or in
other words the United States
ship Texas. 1t all happened in
IN New Orleans during Mardi Gras.
While in the st. Charles Hotel
there came across his vision a
beautiful young lady. He saw
and was conquered. He wrote her
a note asking her to- grant him the
privilege of calling. Her broth
er-in-law fell heir to the note, and
FASTENED to arrange all introduce
tioh to so famous man, who as
sisted in cutting Cevera's cruisers
with good solid American iron.
They met and eyes and heart
answered eyes and heart. The
F"Captain" had to sail very soon
and he pleaded for q hasty mar
rage. The boon was granted and
and the two were united, he wear
ing portion of uniform.
Soon after this the truth came
out, Moyse was arrested and
convicted of impersonating q
Government officer, and sentenced
for three years TO prison. His
term has been finished and he
went fourth to-day, his offense
expiated. MOyse is from Mis-
sissippi, and is a member of one
of the best families in the State.
He seems, however, to have q
penchant for imagining himself
somebody else. There is O Nash
vile end to the story, for during
the Centennial here he arrived
on the scene, representing himself
as a member of some of the big
Delta mercantile houses and buyer
for the whole bunch. As a result
drummers and others here with
goods to sell let wine and costly
viands run riot whenever Moyse
appeared. This was all the harm
that came of this prank, and
Moyse bad a royalty good time.

TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.

Returns from the general cleo
tion held throughout the United
States of Tuesday, 4th. indicate
o decided reduction in the Repub-
lican majority in Congress. The
result in New York State, while
disappointing to Democrats, indi-
Gates revival of Democratic en-
ergy and enthusiasm. The Re-
publicans carry the State by only
few thousand majority; while
Greater New York gives the Dem
ocratic candidate for Governor a
plurality of 10000.
The net result throughout the
United States may prove in prac-
tical effect Democratic victory.
From the present Indications, it
Is hardly probable that the Re-
pubIica1s will have q sufficient
working majority in the next
Congress to accomplish any de-
cided legislation, whilst the DEM
.ocrats will be relieved from the
responsibility for the initfatory.
In such case it is not probable
that there will be any increase Of
Republican strength between this
and the Presidential election,
while the prosperity" argument
that has been used to such ad-
vantage in this campaign will be
thread-bare before that time.
In both Louisiana and Missis-
sippi the vote was an unusually
small one. In both States the

There was much talk during the
Philippine debate of the disci-
pline of the army, and it was
therefore declared impossible that
instances of cruelty and tortue
cited could be true. The Judge
advocate, General G. B. Davis,
in his annual report, makes in
teresting disclosures OH this point.
1t appears that one out of every
twenty men in the service were
tried and convicted of various
offenses. A pretty serious condi-
tion of offairs exists. There were,
for instance, 760 convictions for
drunkenness OH duty, and AIT
convictions for larceny, in addi-
ton to several hundred others
involving robbery or larceny or
attempts to commit them. Sew
enteen soldiers were convicted of
rape or attempted rape, nineteen
of murder or manslaughter and
forty-six of intent to commit
murder. No less than 1.0S1 SOL
diers were punished for desertion,
$40 for absence without leave, and
263 for sleeping on post. A new
crime added to ~the category is
"disrespect to the memory of
President mckinley" for which
four men are languishing in Jail,
much as men are punished in
Europe for lese majestic. Final
| ly, 2,645 were dishonerably dis
charged. During most of the
period under consideration the
army has had an enlisted strength
of about 10000, exclusive of Fill
ipino troops.-New Orleans States.
