ed the Democratic national ticket. David

was in the race for Mayor of the city, !
was talking to the latter In his City Hall
office. when he said to me:
: Now, look here; Mr.. Cleveland in run
ming for President Suppose he is defeat
ed? Mr.. Hill is running for Governor
Suppose he is defeated? Mr. Hewitt is
running for Mayor Suppose his is elect
ed by an overwhelming majority? Now
who in your estimation would be the
logical person for Presidents?

him to couple his name with the title OF

THE CHILDISH IMAGINATION.

George T. Winston, President OF the
North Carolina A. and NJ College. thinks
he has the prize when it comes to child
ren's sayings.
While visiting in Asheville he went to
see one of his friends and met the 3-year-
old daughter of the family. Her parents
were religious people, and she had learned
from them that God was everywhere and
that she must always try to please Him.
Dr. Winston and she became friends, and
the next time he went to her house he
carried her bow and arrow as a gift.
She was delighted, and the two went
out on the lawn TO try the toy. He
taught her how to shoot it, and she pre-
pared to send the shaft upward She
pointed the arrow toward the sky and
pulled the elastic string far back. She
had almost let go when a frightened look
came over her face. Then she looked up,
and, raising her voice, said:
"Det out of the ay, bod, I'm goin' to
shoot"

OLD NEGRO BELOVED
BY SEN. T|LLMAN.
This Negro ating" States
man Shows a Very Human
Side of His Nature.

Senator Tillman has given the country
cent speech on the race question he un-
consciously showed a glimpse of his per-
sonality that took even his colleagues by
storm.
To prove that he was not prejudiced
against the negro he went to his own
home for an illustration, and with force
ful simplicity told the Senate and gall
leries what he thought of his farm hand,
Joe.
II don't know whether Joe belongs to
me- or / belong to Joe. Anyhow, We
have been together for thirty years, and
we have agreed to keep together to the
end-and should l be the first to leave,
/ know that no tears shed for me will be
more sincere than Joes.'
AS he told of the faithfulness of his
negro hand the statesman was lost in
the planter.
The man with the pitchfork had be-
come the man with the hoe.
And as the words rang out, vibrant with
unstudied emotion, his listeners, friends
and antagonists alike, felt the magnet
ism that has won for the aggressive

the highest honors of his State.
Because Of his speech the see-saW OF
public sentiment has elevated Senator
Tillman to the heights of popular favor,
and way down in the fields of Carolina a
black farm laborer named Joe Gibson Is
tasting the glory of fame.
1t was to know more about this Joe
that a representative of The North
American called at Senator Tillman' S
Washington home. 1t was just after
nine In the morning, but the family was
ready for the engagements OF the day.
Mrs. Tillman had on her wraps for a
shopping expedition, but graciously de-
layed her departure to assist in the
praises OF Joe. The Senator was polite
and that was all.

like a church organ. He looks as If
