Unprecedented Weather.

The continued wet weather
has had nosrerallS in q nuF1ber
" years inv bis 4 1etion. For the
past five months We have had
rain fall at intervals Of only 9
few days, not . week passsag
without it except when the seya J
cold weather of January
February prevailed. Earl ]
December rain began to ;
and since that time the groun
has been in such condition that
but little work could be done,
What effect the rainy season
will have on the crops is conjec-
ture; some contend that there
is still time in which to plant
more than we can cultivate, while
others say that the season is toe
far advanced to make it possible
to get in full crop.

Judge Wofford, of Kansas City
in a recent address to boys, gave
advice which, if needed, would
revolutionize the country. II
should be read to every boy in
the United States.
II have been on the bench
fourteen years, and during that
time thousands of boys have
been brought before me, but none
Of them was a constant atten-
dant at church or Sunday school
or obedient to his father or
mother.
Il have inquired of many boys
what caused them to get into
trouble, and found that in most
instances, staying away from
home and school, playing pool,
hanging around streets and
smoking cigaretts are responsible
Start right, boys. To be any
body, to accomplish anything for
yourself or the community, you
cannot be idle. Don't drink
liquor destroys the mind and body.
Don't swear gentlemen do not.
It is low and vulgar. Don't read
trashy literature. 1t leads to the
devil. Don't hang about the
streets. Good men are not made
that way. Whenever you see
a man lying around town
the devil is after him and will
get him sooner or lat II. Ben.
jamin Franklin would never
have accomplished anything if
he had been guilty of those prac-
tees. Be honest above all things.
Poor boys make the best future
citizens. Elk.

annodAcs that opgres nan
John Sharp Williams had stated
that he would become q candidate
for the United States Senate for
Senator Moneys place.
While it has been known for
some time that Mr.. Williams had
senatorial aspiration this is the
first statmeat from him
in regard .ftoi the matter.
No man in the south is better
prepared to represent her people
in the Nationals Congress than
Mr.. Williams, His thorough
education, his great learning,
his wide experience in political
affairs, eminently fit him for
the highest place in the public
service. As leader Of the minority
in Congress Mr. Williams has de-
monstrated the fact that he is a
safe and conservative leader and
by his course has won the con-
fdence and admiration of the
people of all parties throughout
the country. Should he succeed
he would prove a worthy sue
cessor to the able senator whom
he aspires to follow.

Frank G. Carpenter, the most
widely known newspaper corre-
spondeat, in writing of the Pan
anna Canal says that the red
tape Of the government is cost
ing the tax payers Of this country
$40, 900 a day unnecessarily and
delaying the progress Of opening
up the great waterway. Requisi-
lions for necessary implements
must go through the red tape
methods which the government
prescribes while high priced Off
cials draw their salaries, the la
borer idles his time away and the
hospitals fill up with patients.
Mr.. Carpenter very correctly
points out the need Of real COM
mercial business methods with
one man to direct and push the
work. Congress cannot afford to
delay this great work by throwing
around those in charge Of it UNI
necessary restrictions, but should
afford ample latitude to those in
charge to enable them to push
the work to completion.

A Family Reunion.

Mss L. Haunno1d Of Eldon,
low was very happily surprised
on last Wednesday by being ~
united with her brother, w. A.
King, of Tupelo, Miss, after an
absence Of thirty years, no trace
being known Of him until about
one year ago. He was invited to
come to Iowa to be present at q
family repnion Of his brothers
and sisters, the reunion being
held at the home of his sister,
Mrs. E. L. Hammond on East
Church street, Eldon, Iowa. To
say he was rejoiced at being re-
united with his relatives is speak
ing lightly and all had a most
enjoyable time. Another pleasing
feature Of the reunion was the
celebrating OF Mr.. p. q. Ming 3
birthday. On Monday noon the
entire party returned to Ottum-
wa, Iowa, and on Tuesday a very
pleasant family outing was plan
ned and successfully carried out
by the King families of South
Ottumwa in honor of Mr.. w. A.
King. The party made a cross
country drive to Chillicothe and
Kirkville, Iowa, en- route visiting
the old family cemetery, the old
family residence and many other
old landmarks. Many old familiar
faces were seen at various stops
along the route. A very fine din
ner was enjoyed at Chillicothe at
the residence of Mrs. Butin,
the party returning home in the
afternoon feeling much refreshed
from the drive.

Mr.. Walter Needy, a gentle
man who has been,a long resid ent
of Rankin county, was the past
several years in the employ Of
the English government and en-
gagged in cultivating and raising
cotton, as we'll as teaching the
natives how it is done in the
Southern fields. He does not
think that the business will ever
amount to much in that section OF
the world and is of the opinion
that Britishers are getting very
tired of their experiments. Mr..
Nicely will go back to his Rankin
farm and take up life where he
really left off when he went to
Africa.

The fight now on between
different factions in the Equit-
able Life Assurance Society is
attracting the attention OF the
whole life insurance world and
bids fair to result in much dam
age to the standing Of that great
organization. 1t seems that the
affairs Of the society have been
controlled by the stockholders
who own the 800, 900 of shares
which represents the capital OF
the society. The directors ofthe
society determine it's policy and
declare whatever of dividends
shall be annually distributed
to the policy holders The fight
now on is for the purpose OF
mutualizing the company 50
that the policy holdersshall have

the society and share in it's ear

The United States on last week
carried into practice the policy
of government ownership OF
railroads by taking over the
Panama rail road which this
country acquired in the deal fol
the canal property. The great
majority, or practically all Of the
stock is owned by this govern
ment and the road will be under
the management Of a board Of
directors, most of whom hold
positions on the canal COM
mission. Theodore Shonts, chair
man of the canal commission, was
elected president, John F. Wal
lace, chief engineer, vice-presi-
dent, and Edward A. Drake,
auditor. These officers will draw
no salary except that as members
of the canal commission. The
board of directors have set aside
funds to double track the road,
which will be done. as soon as
practicable. The road will also
be reequipped and brought up to
the highest point Of efficiency.
With the government operating
this road we will have the first
practical experience in govern
ment ownership of a railroad
in this country. OF course con-
ditions are as in the states, quite
different, but a sample Of what
the government can do in running
a road will here be given.

told my story in French.
Dinner over, the count invited me
10 the smoking-room, where, in cor
ner by ourselves, had some talk with
him. He told me of his father-that
he had been friend of Franklin.
that he had given a ship and a cargo of
gunpowder 10 our navy in '76. Like
others | had met under his roof, the
count had seen the coming of the Reign
of Terror in France, and had fled with
his great fortune. He had invested
much of it there in the wild country.
He loved America, and had given free
ly TO equip the army for war. He
was, therefore, a man of much influ-
ence in the campaign of the north,
and no doubt those in authority there
were instructed while the war was on,
to take special care of his property.
"And will you please tell me, | said
at length, who are the Misses de Lam
hertz"
Daughters of a friend in Paris"
said the count. "He is a great physi
clan. He wishes not for them TO mar
ry until they are 81. Mon Dieu! it
was matter of some difficulty. They
were beautiful
VERY beautiful" | echoed
"They are admired" he went on.
"The young men they began to make
trouble. My friend he send them
here, with the baroness, to study-to
finish their education. 1t is healthy,
it is quiet and-well, there are no
young gentlemen. They go TO bed
early; they are up at daylight; they
have the horse! they have boats; they
amuse themselves YER much. But
they are impatient; they long for
Parasitic salon, the theater, the
opera. They are like prisoners: they
cannot make themselves contented.
The baroness she has her villa on a
lake back in the woods, and, mon anne!
it is beautiful theresa still, so cool,
so delightful! At present they have a
great fear Of the British. They lie
awake; they hear sound in the night,
and, mon Dieu! it is the soldiers COM
ing"
The count laughed lifting his shoul-
ders with a gesture of both hands
Then he pulled thoughtfully at his Gig
ar, tie.
Indeed" he went on. presently, Il
think the invasion is not far away,
They tell me the woods in the north
are alive with British cavalry. | am
not able to tell how many, but, Dieu!
it is enough. The army should inform
itself Immediately. l think it is bet
ter that you penetrate to the river to-
morrow, if you are no afraid, to see
what is between, and to return by the
woods. l shall trouble you to take a
letter to the Gen. Brown. 1t will be
ready at any hour"
AT six?" l inquired.
'At six, certainly, if you desire to
start then" he replied.
