She was fairly tall, apparently a

sweetness of expression.

THE SEA.

Come down with me to the moOn-led sea.
Where the long wave GIBBS and fills
Are these the tides that follow
AS the lunar impulse wills?
Nay. rather this is the heart OF God,
Naked under the sky.
Aud we hear its pulse with wonder
The shore. and the clouds, and /!
Unesrthly. awful, uncompelled.
Eternity framed in clay.
The urge OF exhaustless passions
Rocking beneath the gray!
Its life Is the blood of the universe
Through cosmic arteries hurled.
With the throb OF its giant pulses
God feeds the veins OF the world
And the lands are wrinkled and gray
with time
And scored with a thousand scars.
But the sea Is the soul OF the Infinite

Wine from Missouri.

Missouri is not often thought OF as
a wine-producing state. yet recent
statistics compiled by the State Board
of Agriculture show that the state
produces annually more than 100 600
gallons of wine. and that more than
100000 pounds Of grapes are raised
each year. These figures apply TO
the products which are shipped out
as no record can be- kept OF the large
amount of both grapes and wine that
are produced for home t5e.

Gen. Miles For President.
Daily States.

General Nelson A. Miles il de-
termined to run for the presiden-
cy 10 some way or break hame
string. We are informed by a
press dispatch from Indianapolis
that he has consented to be the
nominee of the Prohibition party
at its convention is that city ron
June g.
Chairman Newlin, of the Ma
tional Committee of the Prohibi-
ton party, is quoted as follows re-
garding the candidacy of General
Miles:
AS a vigorous opponet OF the
army canteen and an enemy Of
Roosevelt and q friend of the
Southern Democrats, General
Miles will be sure to poll 1000, 600
votes"
If General Miles desires to en-
ter the presidential race for the
purpose of exhibiting his graceful
form and pretty pace nobody will
have any objections, but we would
like to ask his friends what good
will the 100000 votes do him,
and where will he get them. He
will certainly not get them from
Southern Democrats, who still
have very distinct remembrance
of the fact that be was cowardDy
and brutal enough to place irons
on the emaciated limbs of help
less and distinguished prisoner in
his keeping. Again, the Demo-
Gratis Of. the South are not aware
that General Miles has ever shown
any friendship for them, and the
other planks of his platform, OPP
position to the army canteen and
enmity to Roosevelt, do not inter-
est them.
However, the candidacy of Gen.
eral Miles is not a matter to canse
any concern, and it is quite safe to
say that the Prohibition party will
do no better with him than it has
with it's other candidates. He will
look well in Autographs, but he
will not get 100000 votes from
Southern Democrats or any other
kind of Democrats. The best he
can do is to poll the Prohibition
vote of 5000 or 100000. The
presidential election this year will
turn on issues of the greatest i'm
portance to the peace aud welfare
OF the country and voters are not
going to throw their ballots away
on absurd or impossible candi-
dates. :

Now we make these statements
for the purpose of asserting and
maintaining two facts, first that
hope springs eternal in the hu-
man breast, second. that man is
born with desire to cultivate the
earth, to SOW seed and reap the
harvest.
We ourselves, have been thus a.
flicted from our early youth up,
and, even in this our ripe old age
we are still enthusiastic on the
subject; why sir, on hearing as

you would think we accumulated
our vast wealth in following this
inclination Of our nature, bat hon
estly, we did not.
Nevertheless, as the season "rolls
round" we invariably feel within

was SO fine and our inclination to

We passed a little sandy field and

and was happy. Being somewhat

stopped to greet the ''old uncle.

The desire to cultivate the earth
was strong within us, we wanted
to hang our gaudy raiment on the
fence and don jumper and over-

help the ''oId niger man" burn
