Bay st. Louis, Miss, Nov. %, 1905.

Circuit Court for Harrison County
opened at Gulfport Monday morning
with Judge w. T. Mcdonald on the
bench, after two-week term in Jack
son county. The Harrison county
docket shows 29O civil cases, SO criminal
cases and IA murder cases. The BILOXI
Herald editorially says: Judge W. T..
McDonald's charge to the grand jury
was one of the strongest pleas for law
and order ever heard in this county,
and the personnel Of the grand jury is
such that big results for the community
might be expected if it were not for the
fact that the court is literally showed
under already with criminal business.
The civil docket can scarcely be touched
at this term, though there is a great
deal of injustice to litigants in this de-
Law. The size of the district will haYe
to be greatly reduced, or the Nixon bill
creating county courts will have to be-
come law to afford relief for this over
crowded condition of circuit courts.

WHY bROMWELL DIDN'T RUN
The Ohio Congressman Thought
Boss Cox Had Straight
Tip.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. a.
The Ohio congressman whose

Miss Alice Roosevelt owes his
membership in congress to the late
Boss Cox of Cincinnati.

the news was first broken to his
predecessor, Jos. Bromwell, that
Nicholas Longworth was to come
to the house in his place. An in

ed that he had heard that Repre-

well and ask him about it.

Tomorrow! Tomorrow, Bertha!

said it more, probably, to my
self than to her as we stood to-
gether that night by the low stone
wall that bounded The great wheat
field. Rosy clouds filled the west.
Soft bushes of the June day, as she
went to meet the night, touched the
tangled hair of Bertha Clarke as
she stood by my side.
"And you are happy, Bertha? Let
me give you up with this solemn
assurance"
She turned her pa'e face toward
Sine, its earnestness ST. liking out
the half dreamy smile of her lips
and eyes. Eyes. Mercy, l am
happy; quietly, contentedly so. Mr..
Allison will be to me the kindest

bands, and his hesl- viii be the
stronger for me to lean on because
of the years that have gone over
his head"
Bertha and had been playmates
in our childhood and friends in our
youth. Elton Hunt, my cousin and
four years my senior, and Bertha
were lovers in those days. One
April evening when the sweet faces
of the stars were almost hidden by
feecy clouds, they said, standings
in the wide old hall of Bertha's
home, 1--WE will walk together until
death part us two asunder."
While the angel wrote those
words in the everlasting records
the shadow of death lowered near
the old home and in less than two
weeks its darkness was over.
Bertha Clarke's fa,ner was stricken
with fever in the noon of his life
and his wife and children were left
very nearly penniless. Not long
after this sad event Lawrence Alli-
son came to Meadowbrook for the
benefit of his health. He was a
tall, fine looking, we'll preserved
man, older than Bertha's mother,
but he seemed enamored of Bertha
at first sight. He was not dis
tasteful to her and his wealth
promised comfort for her mother
and sisters. 1t was no wonder,
then, that she consented to be-
come his wife.
Six years passed. In one of the
heavily curtained alcoves of the
magnificent Allison home, Mrs.
Allison and Elton Hunt were seat

ed. Mr.. Allison was not a jeal-
Gus husband and his perfect con-
fidence in his wife prevented his
being an eXacting one. Elton had
become a favorite of his and he
encouraged the friendship which
had begun between the young
folks when Elton began the prac-
tice of law in New York. But
knew, as Lawrence did not, all the
past, and | feared that the friend
ship must only result in unhappi-
ness for both.
In the soft, Intoxicating moon
light Elton talked Of the past and
his companion listened.

voice of the young man. Though

must not listen to such words"
He looked down through the
tears in the blue eyes and drew
her head to his shoulder. Der
tina, Bertha! This moment you
are more my wife than that Of
Lawrence Allison" Forgetting the
teachings of his youth, forgetting
the honor of his manhood, Elton
Hunt wrapped his arms about the
woman he loved and implored her
to go with him.
Bertha's heart drank in each
word. His reasoning seemed plaus-
ible. In his shining garments the
tempter stood very near the heart
of the wife. Her lips almost
echoed the though of her heart,
II will go with you until death, my
beloved" Then over the wild
storm of Bertha's soul came the
memory of the sweet night prayer
Of her childhood, Lead us not into
temptation"
There was a short but fierce
struggle between good and evil,
but the right triumphed. She
gently put away those loving arms,
rose and answered calmly with
white lips, II can not go with you,
Elton, for it would be sin-sin
written and read against us at the
judgment"
She pressed a last kiss upon the
and was gone.

Many a heart will be hungry,
empty, aching, after receiving cost
ly Christmas gifts, because the CIV
er is not in the gift.
The precious gold, frarkincense
and myrrh laid by the three kings
at the feet of the Christ-child would
have been shorn of their value had
they not been accompanied by the
hearts of the givers.
When King Cyrus gave the cours
tier, Artabazus, a cup of gold,
while to his favorite, Chrysanthis,
he gave only a kiss, the courtier
complained: "Sire, the cup you
gave me is not so good gold as the
kiss you give Chrysanthis!"
Have you ever stopped to think
what priceless gifts, heart gifts,
thought gifts, love gifts, you may
bestow without money?
There is nothing else the human
heart so hungers for, yearns for,
as sympathy, encouragement, love
the things that gold has no pow
er to purchase.
If you have many friends and lit
tie money, you need not let clouds
darken your Christmas season be-
cause you cannot express your feel
ing for them in more or less costly
presents.
Il have no gift to send you, dear

that we are going to help break
up the dispensary and bring up
on the people a condition of a
burdensome taxation, with a
flood of liquor; no, we mean:
by open, fair and square

that intemperance is ruinous to

bring about a dropping off IN

The burning of bales of cotton

The burning of bales Of cotton
and loads of cotton seed by farm
ers in Georgia and Texas, is the
heighth of folly, and reminds US
of a certain creed of religious
fanatics, who had set time for
going to heaven. Before the day
approached they disposed of all
Of their belongings, and at the
scheduled hour assembled upon
the house tops to await the gold
en- chariots to take them on up,
but these vehicles did not arrive,
and the poor deluded people had
to come back and hustle for
bread. The farmer who will take
the results of his hard toll
and burn them because he is dis
appointed in the price, is a poor
deluded creature who should
have his sanity looked into. It
would be far better to hold that
cotton for another season, and
plant less this year.
