Aecup Of coffee.

Everything in this world has poetry

rise to the grandeur of his experience:
he is happy over a little animal salts

him. See yonder. on that tropical hill

rance that fills the soft air. The birds
are fitting about, singing their songs
which go down into the flowers ana
stay. The butterflies go a-wooing ov-
err the bloom and their spirit-like DIAL
lance touches the petals with a Joy.
There is where the cup of coffee
was born, and If one only had a CRATE
full spirit and realized the inward good
ness of things, when he emerged from
his drowsy bedroom, fatfgued by alb
stinence and weary Of sleep, with des
tiny and the day blinking u~nsteadtiy
in his face. and he sat down to his
coffee. he would see where the thrill
comes from that glldes into his blood
and sings along his nerves. He would
see that what he is drinking was the
white bloom of tropical fields, the pur-
pie shadows of the guava, the songs
Of the birds. the lovemaking of the
butterflies and the sweet fragrance of
Paradise. That is. he would see all
these things II he had any poetry in

Uniformity Of Divorce Laws.

Omaha Bee.
These has been prepared for the
American Divorce Congress" a bill
which, it is announced, twill be sub
mltted to Congress for passage. thus
securing a universal law on divorce
and annu1ment OF marriage" but the
authors neglect to point out under
what provision Of the national consti-
tuition such a law, even IL its enact
ment we're possible, would be valid.
The view universally held heretofore
Is that there Is no such provision, and
Congress has certainly never assumed
power to enact such Legislation out
side Of the District of Columbia and
the territories.
undoubtedly the lack OF uniformity
in State divorce laws, or rather their
e~rotesque contrariety. is the root Of
manifold and grave evils, The divorce
legislation and judicial practice in

Meadville, Jan. With con-
crete, brick and stone construc-

the new franklin county jail of
three stories, which is being erect
ed here by the Hull Construction
Company, of Jackson, is guaran-
teed to safely house criminals.
The building, fireproof through
out and embracing modern santa
ry fixtures, will cost $4,000.
Work on the foundation and walls
is now up to the windows of the
first floor, which is built entirely
of concrete. The remainder of
the wall will be of brick and
mounted with stone trimmings,
with the roof Of old process tin.
On the first floor will be room
10 by so feet for the use Of the
grand jury. On the same floor
will be a hot air furnace, which
will furnish heat for the cells
throughout the entire building.
On the second floor will be four
steel cells, fire and saw proof, and
two iron cells for prisoners charg-
ed with minor oGenses. The
work IS being superintended by
Sam Ewing.
Meadville will have telephone
service to Brookhaven within the
next two or three weeks.

Something Drops.

The wholesale liquor dealers of
the country extensively engaged
in making G. O. D. shipments in
to this State are much wrought
up over notices received from the
express companies that special
rates on shipments Of this charac-
ter will be withdrawn, and that in
the future full merchandise rates
must be paid on liquors.
This strikes a telling blow at
the @. @. D. traffic, as the busi-
ness has been built up largely
through the special rates given by
express companies, which enabled
the wholesalers to deliver their
goods to all parts Of the country
in competition with local whole
salers.
The application of merchandise
rates will be especially hard on
dealers in st. Louis, Kansas City,
Louisville, Cincinnati, Evansville
and other points, who have BULL
Iup an enormous traffic, not only
| in Mississippi, but throughout
| the country generally, and they
lare now trying to figure some way

which they are placed.

When they had reached Union
