While out riding on our wheel
the other evening we passed the
cemetery, and impelled by some
strange impulse, stopped and
went in. AS we walked the
quiet paths of this silent land
and looked at the various monu-
ments pointing heavenward, our
spirit rose above the things of
earth and we exclaimed like the
poet of old, "Oh, why should the
spirit of mortal be proud ?" AS
we stood with our hat off musing
of things now past and gone and
wondering what would come to
us out of the dim and distant fu-
ture, a lonely Bob-white called to
his mate from an adjacent field.
Our boyish impulse predominated
and we initiated the call of fe-
male quail. In a few minutes
the lonely bird was near us, and
our heart went out to him as he
crouched in the grass and anxi-
ously looked for his mate, and we
could not help thinking of some
people in darlington who, like
that lone quail, would no more
hear the familiar tones of the
loved ones. lying in an unbroken
sleep at our feet. Over in the
town the clang of the engine bell
and blast of the whistle rise
against natures sounding board,
while sweet incense floats to
heaven from the silent city of
the dead. Here and there is a
tiny mound which takes up only
a little space, but oh, what a
space the child filed in some fond
heart. AS we left the mute city
the mournful cry Of a whip
poor-will floated on the evening
air and in fancy we could almost
hear the swish of angelic wings.
The stars were bursting through
the blue dome overhead and the
spirits whispered good night.

Beautiful Life Closed.

Mrs Susan H. Reese, aged rs years,
died Tuesday June 3, at the resi-
dence of Mr.. William f. Burr, where
for some months she had been at
at home with her daughter, Mrs.
Burr. Though she had spent little
time in Darlington, Mrs. Reese had
attracted many friends, young and
old. Hers has been a beautiful and
a useful life, filed with busy con-
cern for others, and helpful ever.
Mrs. Reese was one of the founders
of a Philadelphia hospital, which
was established some years ago
with small beginnings, but has
grown to large proportions and
great usefulness. Her home was

The Coal Strike.

The strike is over and as the smoke oi
Shis gigantic industrial battle lifts II
shows the miners in the most favorable
light. They have won u great moral
victory and there can be no doubt bnt
they will also gain the material victory
when the arbitration board hands down
its findings.
The strike has furnished an object
lesson-that only through organization
can the laboring classes gain their
rights against centralized wealth.
What good would the protests OF one
or hundred, or even thousand
miners have amounted to if presented
TO the coal baronsY But when the
whole organization, backed by all or
gained labor and the good will OF the
general public, had to be faced, organ.
lied capital had found its match, and
had to ask for the terms-at first scorn
fully rejected which the miners had
Offered them from the very beginning
arbitration by an impartial tribunal.
They even refused at first overtures OF
President Roosevelt in an insulting
manner, but the pressure became toe
great and they themselves asked what
previously they had scorned:
President Roosevelt should be given
due credit Cor his efforts to have the
strike settled, but among those con
nected with this struggle the one figure
that overshadows all others is that OF
President Mitchell, who was the guild
ing hand of the miners side. He
proyed himself "A man born for the posi-
ton of leader. Ever on the alert fol
advantages to be gained, he was beside
compelled TO defend his organization
against calumnies hurled against it, ant
the charges of violence resorted to by
the opposition to weaken the miners
side in the eyes of the impartial public
He has filled his part well and all organ
jed labor can point to him with pride.
The strike has cost up in the millions
of dollars but 1t has done good in that
it has opened the eyes of the people tc
the arrogant spirit of corporate wealth.

history Of Indian tribes for 25n years
past and the recognition uniformly
given bv the government to their adop-
ton. The effect of this decision is very
important and puts the matter of tribal
members entirely in the control OF the
tribes themselves.
The position of the interior depart
ment always heretofore has been that
Indians had no control of the matter of
adoption into their tribes except as the
same might be approved of by the secre-
tary of the interior and under this ruling
the rights of many adoptees have been
denied.
The decision in this case of the court
Of appeals, therefore is calculated to
have the effect Of giving the various
Indian tribes greater freedom in the
management of their own affairs than
they have ever enjoyed before. The
decision Of the court of appeals holding
that white persons are legal members
of the Indian tribes by adoption and
that the act of the secretary in refusing
to approve their allotments was unjustl-
fable and subject to control by the writ
of mandamus is likewise Of great i'm
portance to Indian tribes generally and
those claiming right to allotments on
their lands.

Deuning Soldiers Became RiOtOuS.

Superintendent Rees B. Higgins OF
the Arkansas penitentiary on his return
from the Fort Smith fair, reported a
thrilling experience on the Fort Smith
passenger train which brought him to
Little Rock He says the company of
state guards located at Denning boarded
the train on their return trip from the
fair. Many of the soldiers were intox-
icated and spent their time smashing
panes of glass in the car windows and
running bayonets through the ceiling OF
the cars. He said If the soldiers had
been allowed to carry cartridges several
passengers would have been killed. AS
it was almost everybody on the train
was terrorized, and shouts of joy went
up from the passengers when the com :
pany got off at their destination. The
matter will be reported to Gov. Davis
and court-martial will very likely
follow.

Mason VIII Support Some Democrats,

CHICAGO. III. Oct. Ex-senator Will
liam E. Mason left the city today to
take the stump at st. Anne, Kankakee
county, leaving behind him the an
nouncement that at his "make-or-
break" meeting at the Auditorium a
week from next Tuesday night he will
come out fiat for certain of the Demo
cratic county nominees, If not for the
entire ticket. The three candidates
whose names he has put at the top Of
the list and declared his intention Of
supporting without condition are Lyman
+. Cooley for member of the board of
review; Edward NJ. Lahitf for clerk of
the appellate court and Jas II Bowman
for clerk of the criminal court. IL is
understood that he will take up the
derelict cause Of Peter Kiolbassa and in
one stride place himself in opposition to
the election of the Republican county
ticket and all of its alliances against his
return to the United States senate.
In return for his support of the Dem
ocratic candidates Senator Mason has
been promised the support in the legis-
lature of the local Democratic oragniza-
ton in case there is no chance for the
election of a Democratic senator.
1--WE have made no deal with Senator
Mason and will make none, said John
P. Hopkins, Democratic state chair
man. We expect to elect Democratic
majority in the legislature and to elect
u Democrat to the United States
senate. ~
Mason is already out Of the Republi.
can party without further declaration, -
said Secretary Hoy of the Republican
state committee,
ITO say nothing of his actions in the
United States senate, he has put him
self ont of the party this year by his
con tnued assaults on his party and by
his support of Independent and Demo
cratic candidates for Office agains
