NIGGERS In THE WHITE HOUSE.

(Six Months Hence.)
Things at the White House
Looking mighty curious;
| Niggers running everything
White people furious.
| Nlggers on the front porch,
| Niggers on the gable;
Niggers in the dining room.
Niggers at the table.
Niggers in the sitting room.
Making all the talk
Niggers In the ballroom,
| Doing cake walk.
Niggers in the east room.
Make mighty throDg,
Niggers in the music room
Singing coon song.
Niggers in the hallway
Taking off their wraps,
Niggers in the billiard room
Shooting game of craps.
Niggers in the store room
Packing way their plunder,
Nlggers in the bedroom
Snoring like thunder.
Baby in the nursery
A nigger pecaninny
Highly colord gem man
The minister from Ginny.
Niggers on the stairway
With very much safety
Niggers in the blue room
Assembled for society.
Niggers in the front yard,
Niggers in the back E;
Niggers in the omnibus,
And niggers in the hack.
On they go to Washington
With a mighty rush,
Forty thousand niggers
Getting in the push.
There is trouble in the White House,
More than you Can tell;
Yelling like wild men,
Niggers raisin' hell.
see a way to settle it,
just as clear as water
Let Mr.. Booker Washington
Marry Tedd s daughter.
Or if this does not overflow
Teddy's cup of joy,
Let Miss Dinah Washington
Marry Teddy's boy.
But everything is settled;
Roosevelt is dead,
Niggers in the White House
Cut off Teddy's head.

The severe irosts on the first foul

Dispatches from Texas show that the
cotton crop was very seriously injured,
and estimate the total damages at
$40, 900, 900. Arkansas reports are
unanimous in stating that the apple
crop in the northern part of that State
will be failure.

MIR. Buttcriicld, the local nurseryman,
stated in an interview that peaches had
withstood the recent cold better than
other fruits Cherries and pears are
very badly injured, cherries worse
than for many years.
The straw berry crop is slightly in
juted, especially what is known MS
the middle crop. The early blooms
will bear fruit and also the late blooms,
providing there is not another cold
snap The blooms of the middle crop
were caught by the frost and totally
killed Black berries and raspbcrrics
were not injured and full crops may
be expected.

Frances Dallum Ashburn, daughter
of W. c. and Matte Ashburn, was
born March E, 1892, died April 20,
1908, and was therefore ! years, one
month and IA days old.
Fannie, as she was Familiarity called,
was a beautiful, bright, sweet child
She was a general favoritc with her
acquaintance aud had kindly dis
position. She was obedcnt TO her
parents, and was like guardian angel
watching over her younger brother,
She was q devout Christian, always
praying at her bedside before retiring
to sleep Last winter Fannie had n
long spell OF sickness, during which
the writer visited her and learned that
she was patient and trusting in her
Savior.
Her parent, aud relatives were justly
proud of her She gave unmistakabIc
evidence of the fact that she was Il
member Of dcvout christian home,
where love and devotion to God was
the ruling theme Her death was
caused by being thrown from and
dragged by n horse, her foot remain
ing in the Stirrup after the saddle
turned
Her pastor can never forget the
polite manner in which she met him
at the door and welcomed him to
their home in March The smile on
her face showed that she was de.
lighted to have Cod, servant come to
her home just few days before
her death she told her mother that
when the pastor came again she was
going to join the n. c. L.; but alas
before he came again the Lord re-
ccived her to himself to join, not only
the New Century Ladies, but the
saints OF all centuries
II is a great bereavement but God
SAYS, as to Paul, "My grace 10 suili,
cicnt tor thee Heaven Is nearer
aud dcarer than ever before to papa,
mamma, aud brother The funeral
was preached By the writer in the
home April end, in the presence OF
Il large company Of weeping and sym
friends and relatives After
which the body wa, laid to rest in the
family burial ground to await the
resurrection
