On Tuesday, November Is, Miss Grace Sherman was very pleasantly surprised by a visit on the 18th anni- versary of her birthday from the young ladies of the Y. W. c. A.

Miss Sherman was the re- cipient of many gifts, among which was pretty gilt clock and other ar ticles of value and interest to the re- ceiver.
 The strong wind of Saturday night blew down and broke the arch over the upper gate at Union cemetery that had withstood the storms and wind of 40 years.

 On November g your correspondent received from friend a bouquet con- sisting of several varieties of wild flowers, among which were to be seen bloom from a field daisy and num- Der of red clover blossoms, looking as fresh as though they had opened in re- sponse to the balmy air and bright sunshine of ''day in June."

GEORGE P. Mo LEAN.

What The proclamation of the He Says. Governor is what might be called timely document. He men, tions the 'mine" and everyb body knows he means the coal strike. He talks about ''just and reasonable distri- button" and the reader discerns an odor of labor problems. He talks about "political wisdom" and the poli tician pats himself and says, "I have the panacea for all the ills of the body polite. Vote my ticket" It is fact worthy of notice that. the Governor either from accident or design omits all reference to holding any services in the churches. Perhaps he thinks that the people will offer their deyout petitions with more effect on the foot ball fields. It is to be regretted that every church does not hold Thanks giving service on Thanksgiving day if it be nothing more than a sunrise prayer meeting. God is not humored any too much even by Christian people. And on Thanksgiving day there ought to be an hour somewhere in which the church should offer united thanks to God. In our modern worship of a crowd we have forgotten that a few devout souls may receive the blessing of the Heavenly Father and may voice the petition of a whole people. Do not forget God in greedy gormandizing. l x * *

Cigar Store Indian.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
The last cigar store Indian in New Or
leans is for sale. There used to be time
when cigar store without an Indian In the
front was like Wilkins without his Dinah
But things have changed. A wooden In
dian is no longer regarded as the distinctive
and the distinguishing mark Of a cigar
store. Besides, they cost something. They
were made to order. The male Indian in
the glory Of his feathers and his outfit cost
anywhere from $3.50 to $500, but the female
could be purchased for from 500 to $3.50.
AS the custom Of Indians is. the women
occupied position far inferior to that of
the men. The Indians look down upon
their women kind. and the cigar store peo-
pie looked down on the female Indian
buck with all his feathers flowing and the
fire Of battle in his wooden eye was worth
In the eyes Of the dealer more than 500
more than the squaw who had the same
shape. 1t takes an expert to tell the Diff
ference between a squaw and a buck even
in the natural stage OF the animal, but In
the wooden representation the sexual con-
trast was made striking and acute and ali
because Of the difference in price.

Russia in Asia.

From the Nineteenth Century.
In less degree, but still to substantial
purpose, the faculty possessed by the Rus
slams of consorting with Asiatics and even
tually assimlatng them provides the Slav
empire with weapon against its Anglo
Saxon rival. Russian rule is not humane,
or Just. or honest. The British is. But
for all that, the natives of Asia prefer the
former. All their life, as nations, they
have been accustomed to arbtrariness and
cruelty on the part of their chiefs, and they
entertain a distinct, fancy for the license
of anarchy. Where they are vulnerable
is in their amour-proper. Their social dig
nifty is dearer to them than most things
1t Is in this connection that the Russian
scores. Far from asserting any superior
ity of race over the Asiatics, he will not
kind, but actually lower himself before
them by fiattering them. In the inferior
grades of society this absence Of ethc
pride leads to the marriage of the Russian
with the native and to the gradual fusion
of the two. Thus Russia in her onward
march may devastate and commit other
horrors. but at the same time she propiti-
tact and good-comradeship precedes her
and facilitates her task. Great Britain, on
the other hand confers all the blessing of
an enlightened rule on her subjects, but
the impression of it Is effaced in their
hearts by the disdain of the Anglo-SaXon
for the niger" which appears in his
aloofness. his literature and often in de-
iberately perpetrated acts. The British
present themselves in Asia as rreducible
strangers, not even as permanent resi-
dents. but fitting shadows, ever replace
in one another on account of the climate.

Coins Discolored in Oil Belt,

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Money is curiously colored in the oil
regions said gentleman from Beaumont,
and during my recent experience I'm the
Texas city l could not really tell whether
was getting good money or bad half the
time. The appearance OF the silver In cir
culation in and around Beaumont was a
revelation to me. but, Of course, men who
have been in oil regions before where the
very air is filled with gas, knew Just why
II was. Shiny dollars are really very rare
now in the Texas oil belt. The black oxy-
died dollar is the rule. The dimes, quar-
tiers and halves are black. IL is marvellous
how quickly the silver will become oxy-
died. / was talking TO one OF the men
who was actively engaged in working at
one OF the wells, and just for my benefit he
made little experiment. He searched
around until he got a new looking dollar.
one that had just arrived and had not had
time to be affected by the oil and gas OF
the place. He put the dollar in his pocket
and went to work at one of the manholes.
He did not remain there a great while.
When he returned he pulled out the dollar
and handed 1t to me for inspection. II was

gas simply permeated the mans clothes.
got into his pocket and when 1t struck the
silver the chemical processes were set in
motion to leave the dollar colored. All the
silver which has been at Beaumont for any
length of time is i'm this condition, and the
man who would draw the color line on the
dollars in the Texas oil belt would simply be
unable to do business"

A Case of Too Much Fish,

Time q Plenty.

Lots Of time for lots OF things,
Though it's said that Time has wings.
There Is always time to find
Ways Of being sweet and kind;
There Is always time to share
Smiles and goodness everywhere;
Time to send the frowns away,
Time gentle word to say,
Time for helpfulness, and time
To assist the weak to climb;
Time to give little flower,
Time for friendship any hour;
But there Is no time to spare
For unkindness anywhere.
