Nests in Mail Boxes.

Since free delivery of mail in rural
districts has been established | have
been pleased to discover two or three
pairs of blue birds nesting undisturb-
ed in mail boxes by the roadside.
1t is gratifying to know that the
birds allowed themselves to be dis
turbed two or three times day and
yet did not abandon their nests; but
the thing that gives the bird lover
the greatest delight is the fact that
no. one robbed the nests. l am sure
the bluebird will in time learn to ap-
preciate this kindness, and the day
is not far distant when it will be a
common occurrence to find some kind

WHERE TARRANT RESTS
The Han Tor whom Tararnl toaniy Was
Named Buried Near Italy.

While it is not generally known.
even TO but few people of this yicin-
ity. the body of General Edward
Tarrant. for whom Tarrant county
was named lies buried In the Hughes
grave yard, three miles east of Italy
He was brought to Ellis county from
Fort Belknap, Texas, where he died
In 1858 or 1853, and buried by the
side of other relatives.
This historic grave yard adjoins a
plot of ground formerly owned by
General Tarrant, who willed it to
Mrs, Jacob Young of Italy and her
The land is now occupied by several
families of negroes named Tarrant
ex-slaves of the general during the
war The grave yard was laid out
for a family burying ground and
General Tarrant was one among the
first persons to be inferred therein.
Some time ago a suggestion was
made by Howard w. Peak of Fort
Worth that the body of General Tar
rant be removed from the Hughes
grave yard to that city for reinter-
ment This suggestion does not meet
with the approval of the Italy people,
i because the wife and other relatives
of the distinguished general are buri-
ed by his side. Mr.. Peak has offered
to contribute $25 toward a fund to
be used in erecting a suitable monu-
ment to the memory of General Tar
rant, and this will be supplemented
! by the people of Italy if his remains
are allowed to rest in peace at the
old historic Hughes grave yard.

Once in an old forgotten day
Inls Dy-JFaCk was a JTOdden way.
But now. SO few the steps that pas9.
The ruts are Carpeted with grass.
The careless bTamOles tran across,
The gravel has its garb of moss,
And Oft the dawn and dusk go By
tnnCted OF a human eye.
But when the languid day is past
The slumberous road awakes at last,
And manV fSst resume their way
That long have mOldered into clay.
There Is no sound Of stealthy tread
Along this pathway OF the dead
No rustic of the feet that pass
Deadened by something else than grass.
Gray men who toiled and wrought OF
yOre,
Lone weary women burden'd sore,
And little children prattling low
I catch their chatter as they go.
And here the lover and his maid.
Long since n dismal kirkyard laid:
And mother with her sucking pressed
Against tie comfort OF her breast
They all had passed. their traffic done.
Long centuries ere / saw the sun
I stand ans watch them wonderinely.
Half thinking that they beckon me.
