As Means Of Bringing Sinners to Re

OF the boys was bit by a rattlesnake
and sent for him. He found the lad
greatly scared and very penitent.

gentleman closed the interview by
prayer.

for rattlesnakes. We thank thee that

rattlesnakes will bring this Beaver

canteens were quickly established in

Pelican Island,

In that long, narrow lagoon on the
east coast of Florida known as Indian
River, there Is a muddy islet three or
four acres in extent. Originally it.
doubtless did not differ from hundreds
OF similar neighboring islets; but, for
some reason past finding out, this is
let, and this alone, forms the nesting
resort, the home, of all the pelicans
OF the Indian River, if not, indeed, of
the east coast of Florida. The brown
pelican, unlike its white cousin, nests
normally in low trees and bushes; and
there is evidence that when the orig
inal pelican colonists landed on the
islet which now bears ,neir name, it
was well grown with black and red
mangroves in which the birds placed
their scaffolding of sticks. Excep-
tionally low temperature and high wa
ter-perhaps also excessive use by the
birds, which sometimes build as many
as seven nests in single mangrove-
have killed tree after tree, until at
present only three serviceable trees
remain. Still the birds come back, the
impelling motive which prompts them
to return to this particular spot being
evidently stronger than that which in
duced them to nest in trees.-Century.

Honor to sire's Opponent.

New York.-Speaking at the annual
banquet of the Confederate camp of
New York City, Gen. Frederick D.

tion that steps be taken to make
Jan. 10, 1907, the Tooth anniversary of
the birth of Geen Robert e. Lee a
national holiday of memorial.
Tie spoke Or his fathers friendship
with Gen. Lee and of the latter's heri-
tage to the country, in proposing the
resolutions, which was adopted amid
cheers.
f.. HopklnsOn Smith, novelist and
artist, created much enthusiasm when
he spoke to the toast "Old Plantation
Days" In his address he declared
The suffrage of the negro was the
greatest crime of the century"
"The great loyalty of the negro"
he said, was as much a part of the
south as its plantations and its peo-
pie. Then came the change and the
loyalty Of the negro, the black mans
greatest and best quality was de-
stroyed, and there was wiped out the
basic quality OF a civilization that will
never come again.
"At that time there was loyalty In
the negro; now what Is it? Why
man in the south now does not dare
to leave his home and his wife and
child alone"
