wonder that, when he came to die. the firm of Panton and Leslie wrote home to his father in Scotland that there were grandchildren there in the woods at Little Tallassee who must go to Europe for education or that the fath- CT who had just died left sixty slaves and over three hundred head of cattle and the firm was yet much his debtor
 few days after visit to Little Tallassee, I was in Pensaola. where I sought out the old warehouse of Pau- ton and Leslie. The place is not known generally but history pretty we'll To- cates It, and I selected d building on Aarragossa street, east of the main city street, which might in location stand for she old headquarters where the trade of all this part of the world was carried on for years and in which McGillivray was the influential part ner' The building had little on the outside to warrant belief that lt could be the old warehouse-new sid ing and fresh paint covered all sug- gestions of antiquity but there was d something in its general shape that seemed to speak of one hundred and twenty-five years ago. and 1 began to make inquiries. In the corner of the building an old lady occupied room She responded to d knock and, after several inquiries, each in a louder tone, She confessed that she was boarder only and that the landlady might tell nfe something. At the front door knock rang loud and hollow through the place and young woman respon- ded-wiping her mouth with her apron, for the monday meal was just in progress. One question was sufficient. She was the iandlady who had Just moved in and she knew no more about Panton and Leslie than sue did of equations, But she did know that the woman who owned the place lived next door,
 Here, in a typical little Southern hoINe with flat roof and q long gal lery in front. with roses running riot over 1t, and a garden in front whose well-kept walks and flowers were all that the boarding house was not I found--after a charming young girl had responded to my knock-a kindly old lady Mrs. Moreno, a widow whose husband had owned the corner build ing. It was not long that Mrs. Moreno took to tell what little she knew, but she recalled the name Panton well enough and she knew even better that, when her husband had come 10 Pensa- cola, the place where she now lived had been the centre of trade-that the corner building had been known as Panton and Leslie's and that 1t had been surrounded by stockade. The place was practically unchanged except for the outside Improvements, just now put on it for the boarding g-house keep CT. Within. 1t was as to side walls and ceilings and beams just as 1t was when she first knew it.
 And an examination of the place showed this to be probably true. Some of the larger rooms had been cut up into smaller ones by partitions. but it required no great stretch of the mag ination to recall the warehouse as 1t had been of old and as some prints yet recall it--a square three -stOried struc- ture of huge beams and hand-cut' cell

Table Decoration.

It is most encouraging fact that the use of flowers in table decoration is now almost universal. Flowers exert a subtle but none the less potent in- fuenee for good upon human nature. Not every one who would be glad to make use of flowers on the table can do so. Some have no garden or green house to furnish them, and many can not afford to buy them. for flowers. es- pecially in winter are rather expensive luxuries. Most people, even those who live in flats. could grow a few-plants in the windows of the living room for this purpose if they would take the trouble
 Fortunately the attractiyeness of the table does not depend on the quantl- ty of It's floral decoration, A single simple flower with a few green leaves will often prove more ornamental ar- tlstically than great vase full of cost ly blooms. very great deal depends on arrangement. A person who has an eye for the beautiful will produce good results with small amount of materi- al while a person lacking in the artis- tic sense will make a sorry failure with any amount of expensive material to work with. More depends on the quality of the work done than on the quantity and cost of the material used.

Gwy Elliott Mitchell.

The man who can provide homes for industrious and strong armed citizens Is a benefactor to the race. If Repre- sentative Steenerson of Minnesota can push his swamp reclamation measure to enactment into law he will be de- serving of the praise of not only this but future generations. His bill IS practical extension of the old home . stead idea, or rather, perhaps, an ap- plication to the vast areas of our swamp lttnds of The lhea embodiel :n the national irrigation law.
 There are In the neighborhood or 10, ,0OO, 900 acres of swamp lands in the United States. some 7O.000,000 of which have been surveyed and the gre bulk would make splendid farms if the eX- cess of water were drained od.
 The Steenerson bill provids for the beginning of the work of reclamation of these huge areas. The ,ncI;ur' is framed after the irrigation "a V; it pro- vides that the receipts from tn } sales of public lands in the non-i -irfigaton States shall constitute drainage fund to be expended by the Govern ment in great drainage wo-xs and fur- ther, that the cost of such drainage shall be pro-rat"d among the land benefited and paid back by the settlers into the fund" to be used over again for additional reclamation work.
 Would Create Thousands of Homes.
 This plan of developing the internal resources Of the country and making homes of waste places Is splandij In It's scope, and appears to be entirely practicable and profitable. Take for iJstance. the sir gle example Of thf swamp lands of tho Kankakee River basin in Indiana and Illinois. Here are some 400, 900 acres of the very richest of bottom lands, but subject to over flow. They are worthless except where they have been reclaimed through ex- pensive private drainage works, when they have become worth $100 and S11O an acre. Yet it is estimated by the Government surveyors and engineers that the entire system could be enect- lveIy drained at a cost in the neigh borhood of $10 an acre The same can be said of the lands of the Red River Valley in Minnesota. These include the finest grain and farm lands In the northwest except that they are fre- uuently oVerfiowed. It would be worth millions of dollars to the farmers and settlers who would occupy these lands in small tracts to have perfect sNs- tenn of drainage provided. These ex- tensive systems, however especially where they are interstate, seem to DC feasible for handling only by the gem eral government
 The Steenerson bill places the entire management of the work in the hands of the Reclamation Service and the

ings. No Hudson Bay post in the far North can tell a more romantic com mercial story than this present-day boarding house in Pensacola, If the houses themselves could speak: but as they cannot, and as the Panton place has not yet found it's historian, it sits unsung, looking from its rear top windows out over the crowded harhcr of the Gulf and in front-nalf dls- guised by new gallery-shameface Haunting in the face of pedestrians is new sign of Boarding and Lodging. And yet from its rear doors, opening at one time almost on the waters of the bay behind, no less than sixteen vessels came and went, one hundred years ago, along. not only the Ameri- can Gulf coast, but to the West Indies and Mexico as well, and from It's land side portals trails led through all tho Southern wilderness from New Orleans to St. Augustine and Savannah.
 Old records say that .Aloxcniar Me- Gillivray. on one of his flral visats to the Governor of LouisilnN cn behalf of the firm, was taken sick with fever, somewhere between Mobile and Pen sacola, and that he finally dIcd in the arms of William Panton and was then buried in the spacious rardens' of the post with Masonic hon0ss. But 1T this be true, nothing IS now t0 OH iOun', pr the grave Nor does pleasant-faced cid Mrs Moreno know anything about it.. In fact, she had never heard that this was the fact, and her recollection joins with 1t that of hcr husband who was much older. If McGillivray was bur fed in the yard of the Panton ware house, the memory of the fact has been lost in the general story of the passed away Indian into which nebulous haze it may easily have disappeared.
 Mrs. Moreno's present home place is part of the old post yard-and. in- deed. most of it, for there Is but few yards of barren grass in the rear of the corner building now-and here rose bushes and little kitchen garden and a dove-cote cover the soil where once the Indian fingered with his traffic and where, if history is right, the old chief tain lies buried. Machine shops and shipping are now crowded close upon the place in the rear-fit successors in a way of tto commerce that had it5 birth here no doubt-and 1t will proba- bly, not be lcng before even the well preserved bu,icing will fall before the steel and bf.ck warehouses of modern Pensacola. Ana into 1t will disappear the last physical remains of McGlili- vray as Fort Toulouse and Little Tal- lassee have long since passed away.

Part III. Alexanaer McGiIIIvray.

Part MI. Alexander McGflIlvray.
 Captain Marchand, the first comman- dant at Fort Toulouse, married Se- hoy, beautiful girl of the Creeks who belonged to, the Tribe of the Wind This tribe 1t was from whom the chiefs were always taken and. from whom they had been selected since the days of Montezuma in Mexico The story of the Creeks and their wanderings from Mexico is a romance in itself a genuine American romance. full of color and interest and too little known. Something of it can be found in the narrative of Le Clere Milfort (another European who married into the tripe and who wrote the story of his ln- dian wife's people as 1t was told to him from beads and necklaceS and sI<ins) but there is too little of It Tor one who has stood on the old town site of little TaIlassee and tried to re- call something of the actual life of these beautiful women and great war riors who were so quick to impress themselves above all other Indians on the strong men who came their way.
 He tells ,thourh. how thev fled from Mexico to escape the new spanish power-refusing to recognize any ruler higher than their own chfet-and now tbev wandered through primal America as far north, as the Missouri and as far east as the Wabash and then south to the place that was tn become their bome-all this just in time to escane the devastatine Dc Soto and how Tn all these wanderinEs it was the Tribe of the Wind-Sehov's people-that was first across 2 river: that was first III danger and that led in driving other Indians before them when they came at last to make a permanent home at wetumpka where the 'Tnmblins Wa ters" of the Coosa sang their song al- ways The historians have little to say about all those things. but this IS surely American history that ought tn refute the old belief that we have no American romance. Furopean nations have few tales that will hear compari- son with this. Perhaps # the French commandant had not come under the smell of the Indian girl whose family had done all this and had the wooing not led to marriage and children. we might have known nothing of the sto- rv. for if was Milfort's acquaintance with Marchand's and Sehov's grandson Alexander McGillivray. that led him into the same tribe and to marriage with McGillivray's sister and so to q notable, history of a notable people.
 Sehoy Marchand's husband was mtlr- dered in time by the soldiers of his own command in old Fort Toulouse. and his Indian wife and her friends buried the
