Vacation.
IBY N. ". u 1

Merry vacation has come at last,
s. all children are full of happy
plans,
For vacation and it's pleasure
Are known to many pleasant,
beautiful lands
Our school work is done,
And we are ready for fuu,
So when we get to our homes
We may jump, skip and run.
All are ready for tuo and rest;
But we that enjoy vacation most
Are we that have studied best,
And stood fast at our post.
Some days well spend with a story
book,
And others wen spend on the
bank OF a brook,
Where, from beneath the willow s
shade,
Fish we will draw with line and
hook.
In woods, or meadow we will frolic
Tilt time to 60 to school again;
And there some with Joy will return
to do their best,
While others win half do their
work and see nothing plain.

MAN AT LOTHIAN
 HAS STRANGE DREAM
MAKES HIS WILL WHILE ASLEEP AND CALLS UPON GUESTS AT HOTEL TO WITNESS THE FACT.

Dothan, November T.-(Special.)-A travelling man from New York rushed from his room in the Thrasher hotel into the lobby this morning and exclaimed: Witness thisi I am a dead man and am dreaming that I am alive" He held will in ht hand, which left all his earthly possessions to his wife and children.
 Later the man explained in an excited tone that he had dreamed that great big nigger' had cut his head off with a long knife, and that he could see his cut off head hanging on the gas jet. He said the head gasped for life at sort intervals and that 1t was horrible sight to behold. He could see his wife and children, clad in black. standing around his lifeless body and thanking God that his arms and legs had not been cut off also. A coffin was brought Into the room and two red angels entered and took the head from the gas jet and placed it back on the body, which got up and walked down stairs as the lobby was reached the man awakened and 1t was then he discovered he had made his will. He does not know when the will was made and 1t is thought he did it while asleep.
 The affair has caused much amusement here.

 Confusing Conditions.
 The confusion caused by the failure of the legislature to pass statutes for en- forcing the election provision of the con stitution ts now assuming annoying shape. One probate judge says he Will not get out, though he has served the term for which he was elected, because the law seems to give him another year, and one county superintendent of education taking the same ground. The old laws contemplated that the state elections would be held in August and stated time for beginning of terms of new men with that in view. Probate judges and num- her of others were to go In November 3' next after their election; county superin- tendents of education October l. next after election The new constitution says these officers are to be elected Tues day after the first Monday in November, 1904 and six and four years after This wear the election was November 8, which will give october 1. and November J. next after election" year later. No new law having been passed the old law Is operative
 Attorney General Rules.
 The attorney general has ruled. how ever. that as the constitution expressly | fixes the terms of office of probate judges at six years and other officers | at set terms and they have served out this time, they are clearly not entitled | to the positions longer even if the new men should not go in until next year. He has therefore ruled that the new offi- cers are entitled to the places as soon as they qualify.
