naxks ceased to comfort, he gave him bis own horned toad as a last desper- ate resort. The effect was wonderfully efficacious, but transitory.
 I'd oughter been a girl" said De Peyster many times to himself, but I wish she didn't want to make believe I am one when I ain't"
 This was the nearest to a reproach that he allowed his loyal little heart to entertain. but a baffied, unchildlixe look grew in his eyes as he watched his mates go off without him day after day.
 In July a light epidemic of scarlet fever prevailed. The oldest inhabit- ants called it walking scarlatina," the illness was so slight.
 Mrs. Van voort kept De Peyster in the house.
 One day De Peyster caught it.
 He regarded it rather in the nature of festal occurrence than otherwise, for all the boys who had had it came rp to see him. and. although they were not allowed to stand long. 1t cheered him amazingly to hear what they were doing. for he had constantly the hope that these new delights they told of one after another would not be on the forbidden list when he was out again.
 But after awhile he did not seem to care whether they came or not and one day when told that Micky Daily waited below said languidly, "I guess l don't care about seeing him just now
 Ls l. I l.. bully to have him come tomorrow"
 But when tomorrow came no one was admitted. for he was tossing about in a weakening struggle with some thing he did not understand that those who watched by him realized only too well.
 He heard voice as if from very far away:
 You'd better tell him. doctor" it said. Il cant stand it to see him fight for his life like little Trojan when it isn't any use"
 The voice broke and then went on:
 Hes q brave little chap, brave enough to face anything, and it isn't treating hin square not to let him say goodby"
 De Peyster opened his eyes. The doc tor was standing over him.
 You don't have to tell me-" said De Peyster, for he dimly saw that the old doctors lips were quivering. "I- l guess-I know"
 He felt for his mothers hand.
 "I'd like to hear you sing just once first, mansie," he said.
 h,IIv Sopn opa of tl1o lers taught ne, One Wide River I've liked it specially much since-since 1t worried you to have me go in swim ming"
 His mother sobbed out a few lines, faltered and stopped
 A look of patient disappointment came over his face.
 "Never mind, mamsie, you needn't" he gasped. I'm going to see it. you know, so it doesn't matter. Won't the ccol water feel good. though! And don't you worry, mamsie. Who's afraid? Father Fl fnd me!'
 He lay quite still moment: then he whispered: '. .~.r
 "l would a liked to try one more run with the fellers-Micky Daily was most always .ahead-he's peach sprinter. You tell him and Jimmy and the other fellers about-about me and the wide river. Tell 'em this time I-I ain't lubber lastw
 And he slipped away to find that un. known river. the bravest of little pio- neers.

The new Douglas postmaster' MT. Caldwell, was a resident of WILCOX
 in fact he lived there so long that he was rated as an old timer in that berg. He erected the electric light, power and cold storage plant there and in that enterprise was connected with John Brockman, of Pearce, to whom he sold his interest when he left there to come to Douglas. Mr. Caldwell and Territorial Auditor w. F.

Capsain J. H. Tevis, the pioneer of Arizona, and the first settler at Bowie Station On the Southern Pacific rail road. wants it distinctly understood that he was the first to propose the name of William R. Hearst in this territory as a presidential candidate. The name of Hearst may have been proposed in other sections of the country but the name was first pro- posed by Cap ain Tevis last fall in a letter to the Arizona Bulletin. Some time afterwards Tom Parrish, of Phoenix. wrote a letter to Phoenix raper suggesting the name of MT. Hearst as presidential candi- date. 'I know that agreat many of the politicians are opposed to Hearst. but I believe the people will rise for once in their might and overthrow machine politics and elect man who has proved that he may be relieI on to purge the governmental system of rascality and favoritism- Such man is Billy Hearst and he will be the nom inee.

LAYING IRON ON

Work is Pushed Vigorously on

BLACKSTONE, VA, May 0.--Wori of
laying iron was begun on the new Black
| stone and Southern Railroad on Friday
morning. The beginning was made at the
! point Of intersection here with the Nor
folk and Western Railroad. The grading
is going ahead ns fast us the scarcity "
labor will permit This latter is hinder
ing the work to some extent.
The engineer corps is engaged in MAX
ing tho location from this place to the
seaboard Air Line, They have completed
about one-third Of the distance
There Is still quite an amount Of inter-
est felt here in the contest for the Leg
islnture. The peculiar spectacle is pre-
scented of only one candidate being In the
field and Of opposition to him without
an opposing candidate
This opposition has gotten the ear of
the Speaker of the House and prevailed
on him to stop the election after he had
issued his writ. This he did by directing
the sheriffs Of the two counties. Motto
way and Amelia. not to post the notice
of election. Tho Speaker: gives as his rea-
son that the two county chairman re-
questcd him to do So and that party
harmony suggested this as the wisest
course. Twenty three of the thirty mem
beers of tho Nottoway committee have
signed Il request to the Speaker to per-
nit the election to be held. Several of
the Amelia committee have also signed
a similar request, bit not-a majority.
There is no end Of kicking going on here
among the business men on account Of
the increase In license, These have not
been high in tho past, but the loss of If
teen hundred dollars revenue from the
three saloons and the increase in expenses,
largely by the interest and sinking fund
on the water bonds recently issued. neces-
states a large increase in license and
taxes. tAGa'H TX ths. t
The electric light plant which is being
installed by the Blackstone Manufacture
ing Company Is hoped to be ready to
begin operations next week. This will
furnish lights for the town and for prl-
vate purposes also. Several busin ess
houses will use these lights and many
private residences are being wired for the
use OF electric lights.
Blackstone feels very proud OF the dis
play it made in the special 7. p. A. edi-
ton of The Times-D Dispatch on Wednes-
day. There were only two or three 9th
CIR cities in the State which occupied n
larger space. But Blackstone never does
things by halves 1t goes the whole
length or nothing.
From present indications there will be
