 Dead bees?''
 ''No. A dead man, woman or child in the family"
 Well why on earth do they put that black ribbon on the hives for? Do they bind crape on the horns of the family COW, or tie up the blow horses tails with 1t, when anybody dies:'
 You may laugh" returned the woman, but 1t is Q common thing in New Eng land where people have beehives to put black around them when somebody in the family dies. They believe the bees will fly away from the hive and go to some other place if they are not notified of this domestic sorrow in this way. You know bees are very punctillious,s she added, convincingly.

 New York Sun.
 gtonewall Jaokscns home Is to be turned into q hospital for Confederate soldiers. Mary Custls Lee Chapter of the United Daughters of the confedeFaey of Lexington, Va. has bought the property and will turn it Into q memorial of Gen. eral Jackson.
 The house is in East Washington Street in Lexington, Va. It is built of stone and brick With the exception of the main entrance it maintains pretty much the same appearance as 1t did when the Confederate leader lived there. Owing to some Improvements which are being made in the street the porch in front was dis pensed with, and what used to be the way to the basement now goes straight Into the house proper.
 Mrs. Jackson, the widow of General Jackson. was it's sole owner, When first asked to sell the house she would not entertain the idea, but gradually the thought grew upon her that 1t was an expensive piece of property to keep.
 For several years the old house had been used as students boarding house. Finally 1t became too great care for Mrs. Jackson to look after. Then she wrote to the Daughters of the Confed- GEaty SECAiAtH NNcA GNN+NS tAA NtAN AAssNS~@s Gympathizing with her fully. the mem- bers of the Mary Custis Lee Chapter de- elded to buy the house and grounds and turn the place into 8 substantial memo rial of her husband.
 "I am so thankful that the Daughters of the Confederacy are going to convert my old house into a hospital for the sick and suffering soldiers" Mrs. Jackson said in speaking of the project. My only regret Is that 1 was not able to do- nate the property for so noble a pur- pose. But. unfortunately, I was not
 Buying the property Is not only a great credit to these noble ladies. but 1t will be a, lasting memorial to the name of the Christian soldier whose home was once upon the sacred ground of their pur- chase. It Is a source of great thankful ness and delight to me-

 A pupil in a Philadelphia. Pa. school says. 'I had a severe attack of typhoid fever, after which I was SO very weak and delicate that could not attend school regular.
 'One day. our teacher, who is a great student and able teacher, gave lesson in phy slology, in which proper food was dis cussed. She recommended Grape Nuts to the class. as she had used the food a long while and watched results.

more than a year after their marriage. Then Mir. Jackson succeeded in buying the only available houSa. His intention was to sell 1t and build one better auitad to their needs. The large. rambling old house was altogether too big for his small family.
 But 1t was genuine happiness for him to have q home of his own. 1t was the first home he had ever possessed, and il was truly his castle.
 It was in 1858, while he was q pros lessor in the Virginia Military Institute that he bought his first and only home. He lived therefore, only few years to enjoy it.

Selma, Jan. 2.
 w.. A. Kinard. a motorman on the Selma street Railway was run over and instantly killed by an electric car at 6 o'clock this afternoon. Both trucks passed over him. crushing his body and right arm and bruising his head.
 MT. Kinard was not on duty when tho accident occurred He was going home on an East End car and had just stepped out upon the forward platform to ask the motorman to stop the car at his res- idence. As he neared his residence on Selma and Lawrence Streets Mr. Kinard stood upon the step on the right side of the car. His hat was blown off by the wind and as he grabbed at 1t, with his left hand, his foot slipped from the step and he fest in front of the car.
 Both trucks passed over him before the car could be stopped and his death was instantaneous. His body was horribly crushed. his backbone being broken and his right arm was almost severed. He was at once taken to his home near which the accident occurred.
 Motorman w. T. Meeks and Conductor w. H. Robinson who were in charge of the car when MT. Kinard was killed. were arrested but were immediately re- leased o3 bond. They have not yet had their preliminary hearing. 1t is thought they were in no way to blame. Roth were very much affected by the accident and especially as Mir. Kinard was very much liked by them.
 Mir. Kinard was about 90 years old and he had lived in Selma all his life. Ht was known as Billy Kinard and was among the most efficient and popular employees of the Street Railway Com pany. He was at one time employed 1T the Southern Railway shops in Selma and had large number of friends in this city His only surviving relative in Sel ma is his stepmother.
 The funeral will occur from the resi- dence of the deceased at 3:3O tomorrow afternoon.

The following resolution was read by Secretary Franelich and adopted by an unanimous vote of the committee:
 Resolved, That this committee hereby calls the attention of all Democrats to the importance of paying their poll tax before February 1st, thus qualifying themselves to participate in the election of 1903.''
 A resolution was also adopted instruct ing the chairman and secretary to com municate with the county and city au- thorities and request the immediate establishment of some permanent and convenient voting place in the Fourth Ward of the city, the old place having to be rented at each election, and be- sides being too small and inconvenient.

Poll Taxes Slowly Paid.

Fewer than $50 poll taxes had been paid to County Tax Collector clin Nor rison and Assistant Tax Collector Craw- ford Phillips today. Most of these polls were paid by citizens of Selma few of the country residents having given in the requisite $1.5O.
 It is thought great many of the res- idents of the rural districts may not pay their poll taxes this year because the next County election will not be held until 1904 and they will thus not be dis barred from participating in any elec- ton by postponing payment until next year.
 The municipal election, however, will be held in May and those who are de- linquent on poll taxes for either 1901 or 1902 will not be allowed to vote. It Is re- quired, too, that payment of the poll tax must be made before February of this year so that 1t is possible number of Selma's citizens may be disqualified.
