PLASTIC ART IN IVORY CITY"
American art is as everything Ameri-

this advance been more rapid than in
sculpture. and as the South Carolina In
terstate and West Indian Exposition is
the latest Exposition, it has the advant-
age of all the others.
In all parts of the Art and Natural
Sections" of the Ivory City are to be
seen beautiful statues, most of which
represent incidents allied to Southern
history.

tributed from their talent, and in five

inspiration in the life of the Children

him avow the error of his faith he de-

and lodged in jail. Inasmueh as he

better case could be made out against

him was dismissed in Boone and he
was released from Jail. Immediately
the Galloway authorities arrested
him, when he began habeas corpus

arrested was void because IL was not
based on an indictment Of a grand

MARCH,

The stormy March is come at last,
With wind, and cloud. and chang
ing skies;
1 hear the rushing OF the blast,
That through the snowy valley files.
Alb, passing few are they who speak,
Wild stormy MONTH In praise OF
thee;
Yet though thy winds are loud and
bleak,
Thou art a welcome month to mt.
For thou, to Northern lands, again
The glad and glorious sun dost bring,
And thou hast Joined the gentle train
And wear'st the gentle name OF
Spring.
And in thy reign Of blast and storm,
Smiles many a long, bright, sunny
day,
When the changed winds are soft and
warm.
And heaven puts on the blue OF May
Then singing aloud the gushing rills
In joy that they again are free,
And, brightly leaping down the hills,
Renew their journey to the sea.
The years departing beauty hides
OF wintry storms the sullen treat;
But In thy sternest frown abides
A look Of kindly promise yet.
Thou bring'st the hope Of those calm
skies,
And that soft time Of sunny showers,
When the wide bloom, on earth that
lies,
Seems Of a brighter world than ours,

Died, Feb. 8, at her home one mile
east OF Benton City, Mrs. Sarah Co
hoon, aged 81 years.
A deep gloom was cast over Benton
City and vicinity when the sad in
telligence OF the death Of Mrs. Co
hoon became known.
Deceased was sick but a short time,
but fully realized the final summons
had come;that very soon she would de-
part with the silent messenger to join
loved ones gone before.
The patient endurance throughout
her illness, and calm resignation at
the last, were but characteristics of
her daily life.
1t seems sad that this dear one,
with a life 50 full OF usefulness and
fraught with good and noble. deeds,
should thus be taken away from Us.
How can we live without her?
This question will be asked in many
places and in many homes besides her
own, for she was ever intent on mis-
sions Of love and mercy.
Was there sickness in the commune
ty, she was first at the bedside, a de.
voted watcher, as long as her services
were needed.
Wherever there was sorrow or dis
tress, she was ready with willing heart
and helping hand, and many a soul,
weary and discouraged, has felt the
power of her cheerful smile, the kind
words and loving acts.
The beautiful Offering, sent in by
the Ladies' Aid Society, Of which she
was an active member, was a token Of
the love and esteem in which she was
held. The pure, delicate blossom,
tenderly lying on the casket, symbol
cal Of her own pure and beautiful
life, was a beautiful tribute.
A self-sacrihcing and devoted wife
and mother, a sincere Christian and
faithful friend 70 all. AS such, we
shall never cease to miss her; but 10
the days to come, when we are tired Of
the weary cares Of life, and our bur
dens seem too heavy to bear, the memo
~ Of her kind, patient face will
come ike an inspiration toward a life
Of nobler efforts on our part, TO live in
limitation Of her utterly blameless
and unselhsh life.
Her good deeds remain to verify
that her light was a bright and shin
ing one, altogether worthy of imita'
tlon. A NIECE.
