Charleston, March, 1902.
Mr.. Editor: South Carolina day
at the exposition is thing OF the
past. 1t was q success and will DO
much to spread the fame Of the Ivory
City throughout the State. The day
was a perfect one and the scene on
the grounds during the day was one
long to be remembered by those who
witnessed it. Their were fair lssses
in blue, soldier boys in gray and ju-
veniles in white. The law maker
mingled with the would be law maker;
the ins and the outs met on com
mon ground, those who weave in the
great mills of the State jostled those
who toll not, no neither do they spin.
The farmer, the artizan, the trades
man and the professional men OF the
State all helped to make up the great
heterogeneous throng that crowded
in to the gates of Carolinas great ex-
hibit all doing their part to win the
plaudits of the world for the cour
age and enterprise of the Stale and
city that have fsthered, and sue
ceeded in producing an exposition
which has never been equaled by
any city IN State of q like size IN
the world. Ali the world loves a
lover and the people Of South Caro-
lima plainly showed ons Thursday
that they admire the pluck of their
fellow citizens in pease as we'll as

During this period the child shows
remarkable precocity in7Iearning the
mother tongue and appears to learn
two languages as easily as one. He
will learn foreign language, if
thrown among foreigners, better dur
ing these first six years than he can
in complete course in school. This
is proved by the thousands of SIX
year olds in this city who speak good
English, while their parents caInot
speak English at all.
The strenuous effort Of these little
ones to acquire medium fer the ex-
preston of their quaint ideas, as we'll
as their desire to speak correrll y,
was shown the other day in q conver
sation between little student and
her mamma. The child had expert
enced much difficulty in mastering
the various forms of the verb "to be-"
and had been corrected times with
out number by the mother, who be
lieves that the time TO teach correct
English is during the first stages of
progress. The child persisted in
mixing her "ams,' "weres" and
"beens' to an alarming degree, and
had been corrected until the mother
had lost all patience and at last told
the child that in the future she would
not answer questions not proi erly
framed, thinking this plan would
make the child more careful in the
selection of words.
The other day the mother W., Sit
ting crochetting jacket for the baby
and Lucille stood near, wondering
what her mamma was doing. Fl
nally her curiosity became so strong
that she said:
Mamma, what is that going to
be?"
The mother, busy counting stitches,
failed to hear the question, and COL
tinued her count without answering.
The child, thinking she was not an
swered because she had made another
horrible blunder,> thought awhile and
at last said:
"Mamma, what is that going to
are?"
This the mother heard and stimuli.
taneously recalled the first question
of the child. Wondering what would
come next, she maintained silence
and the little one stood in perplexity,
first on one foot, then on the other.
After SINE weighty thinking, she
said:
Mamma, what are that going to
isl"
/ No answer and another period of
silence, then:
Mamma, what am that going to
were2
Still no answer, and tears filed the
blue eyes aud the red lips became
pursed with perplexity. The eyes
filled and ran over, and still the mo-
ther sat unmoved, with a mischiev-
GUS smile lurking in her eyes, wait
ing for further results, and determ-
ined to make up for all this anguish
by a bountiful supply of hugs and
; kisses.
In one supreme effort, as though
realizing that this Was her last
chance, Lucille burst into mighty
sob and, breaking the bonds of self
restraint with which she had bound
herself, screaming out:
j mammal! What was that a goln'
to was?"

feeling into the music. 1t is not in the
Filipino, and it never finds expression in
Filipino music. In Romeo and Juliet the

, There were quite number of functions
to which we were invited, receptions at
private houses and ''bailes," or dances, and
at these places we met not only the elite
of Filipino society, but also many of the
foreign residents and their families. One
of the first occasions of social intercourse
was a reception given by couple of
Majors in the Pay Department. In those
days all Paymasters had the habit of be-
ing Majors. though l see that under the
n rank as low as Captain is considered
competent to handle Uncle Sans money.
These two Majors, as jolly a two men as
ever lived, felt somewhat under obliga-

extended during the hard times just prior
to and subsequent to the capture of the
city, and they gave it expression in this
manner. There were present possibly 5t

Some time ago one of the kangaroOs sick

solable but Mrs. Elitch-Long visited it so
often and made such pet Of it that the

A DAKOTA BLIZZARD.
A Vivid Description by a New Writer.

An icy blizzard, carrying in its teeth the
binding sleet that neither man nor animal
could breast. was driving fercely across
the wide plains: and the red frame dwell
ing and its near-lying buildings of sod,
which only the previous morning had
stood out bravely against the dreary white
waste, were wrapped and almost hidden
in huge banks that had been caught up
from the river nights and hurled with
piercing roars against them.
The storm had begun the day before,
blowing first in fitful gusts that whistled
under the caves, sent the hay from the
stacks flying through the yard, and lifted
the ends of the of-shingles threateningly.
By noon it had gradually strengthened to
a gale, and the steady downfall of fakes
had been turned into biting scourge that
whipped up the soft cloak from the face
Of the open, treeless prairie. and sent it
tashing through the frigid air. Long be-
fore nigh, had begun to settle down, no
eye could penetrate the scudding snow a
foot beyond the window-ledges, except
when n sudden stilling of the tempest dis
closed the writhing cottonwood break to
the north, and the double row OF ash sap
.ings leading south to the blOtted, print
less highway.
With darkness, the fury of the blizzard
had redoubled, and the house had rocked
fearfully as each fresh blast struck it, So
that the nails in the sheathing had
snapped from time to time, ringing in the
tense atmosphere like pistol-shots. Mo
mentary lulls-ominous breathing-spells-
had interrupted the blizzard; but they had
served only to intensity it when it broke
again. As it rose from threatening silence
to rending shrieks, the believing of the
frightened cattle. tied in their narrow
stalls. had mingled with it, and added to
its terrors.
But, when another wild, sunless day had
come in, the drift-piled home had ceased
to shiver and creak or admit any sounds
from without. Hour by hour it had set
tied deeper and deeper into the snow that
weighted its roof and shuttered its win
dows, until, shrouded and almost effaced,
it lay, at last, secure from the tempest
that swept over it and deaf to the calls
from the buried stables.

batic bumblebee must be content. To the
abundant white pollen, however, he freely
helps himself, and in so doing he may
sometimes benefit his entertainer. But
the hummingbird, charmed by the bright,
graceful flower, has no difficulty in direct
ing his tongue around curves; and as he
inserts his bill obiquely into the spur
while he hovers above, the observer can
easily see, on studying the jcwel-weed' S
mechanism, how invaluable his services to
it must be.

places, only the cardinal flower can vie
aith it in splendor.
