usual pictures for her to gaze into
and the castie-building materials were
all at handJ Now and then she
glanced al big bowl of violets
which stood on the table near her,
and in her expression was a curious
blending OF indignation and triumph.
There was silence in the room, except
for a slow-pulsed clock, which struck
the quarter-hours reluctantly, and the
occasional rustiing of the turning

She felt strangely lonely. The girls
had gone out, wearing their violets
pinned in the fur and laces at their
tbonnie thrOats. The fragrance of the
T1owers at her side swept up with the
memory OF the lines which had come
as valentine to little Jeanne;

My love for you, my dear,

But it doesn't, Jeanne, child" she
whispered sadly. 1T does not last any
longer than the dew lasts on the
roses. But it is SO sweet to be de-

eyes fell on the violets.

and scanned it by the freight. A
half-pleased smile crept up to her
eyes, as she read.

BY DRUNKEN
BLACK CROWD
White Family Near Meri-
dian Wantonly Attacked
in the Night Time.

Meridian, Miss, adviceS say that
at an early hour Sunday morning the
arrival of the police, who had been
summoned by telephone, undoubtedly
prevented the determination of an en-
tire family of white citizens by ne
groes. The house of Mr.. and Mrs.
Edward McLemore, of Bonita, d SUBJ
urb of Meridian, was surrounded by
a gang of drunken negroes and the
family was awakened with a rough
command to open the door upon pen
atty of death. The command was &C
companied by oathS.
Mr.. McLemOre refused to open the
door and the negroes began firing
their pistols into the house. The win
dows were shot out and bullets pene-
trated the doors. One negro climbed
up to the transom over the door
leading into Mr.. and Mrs. McLemOre' S
bedroom, and fired a bullet through
the glass.
The bullet hit the floor and glanced
striking a sewing machine and al
most hitting a child. Mr.. McLemore
had no firearms in the house and he
went to a rear window, opened it and
called for assistance. The negroes
drove him back into the house with
a fusilade of shots.
Presently the negroes ceased firing,
and Mr.. McLemore. thinking they had
departed, opened the front door and
started across to his fathers house
nearby to secure a weapon. A few
rods from the house he was confront
ed by q couple of the negroes. He
turned and ran back to the house and
upon his refusal to halt they fired
several shots. without injuring him.
The sound of galloping horses put
the negroes to flight The police ar
rived on the scene just in time The
negroes were pursued and before IL
o'clock Sunday seven suspects were
arrested and placed in the county Jail.
The shooting has greatly aroused

Hoffman House that he believed the
railroad rate war was in a fair way
of being settled in manner that was
satisfactory to the people OF his state.
The governor let it be known in I'M
mistakable terms that he was for leg

rates to even a lower figure than the

in authority between the Federal and
state. courts. 49,

this cry that the legislation, in our

QUARREL OVER
PICNIC PLANS
G. A. r. Veterans Fight
With Cane and Bayonet
to Death of One.
SpeciaI to The Journal.

Victoria, Mo-, Aug. 19vAn old
rusty musket to which was attached
a bayonet, a war trophy which for
years had hung On the walls of the
Grand Army of the Republic head
quarters here, was used by Capt.
Charles E. Waters, of the local grand
army post, to stab to death his COM
rade, Col George Patton, FORMER COM
mander. Waters is 65 years old, and
Patton was 81. They had been friends
until recently. They quarreled in the
postroom and Waters tore the bayo-
net from the wall and used 1t as a
weapon.
Witnesses say that Patton had at
tackled Captain Waters with a stick.
Victoria is 81 miles from St. Louis.
Captain Waters is a prisoner in the
Jefferson county jail at HiUlsbOro. The
principals in the tragedy were lead
ing citizens Of Victoria. Both were
pensioners on the government list OF
disabled old soldiers. Both of the
veterans became bitter at the meet
ing, edged words flew like bullets
in former combats, until the disput-
ants lost sight of the issue and waXed
personal. 1t was during this heated
quarrel that Captain Waters jerked
the old bayonet from the wall and
dealt the fatal wound. At the inquest
the coroner recommended that Cap
tain Waters be held responsible fol
the killing of his comrade. The pros
ecuting attorneys says he Will issue
an information charging Waters with
murder in the first degree. The quar-
rel at meeting of the post resulted

rangements for the annual picnic OF

for such a situation and one that
would prevent the possibility of a
clash between the Federal and state
courts, would be to have congress pass
law, providing that disputes within
a state shall be passed upon first by
the highest courts in the state before
taken to the Federal courts
Only once did the North Carolina
situation become serious. Had Judge
Pritchard gotten our prisoner away
from us and adjudged Judge Long in
contempt certainly would have
backed Judge Long up with every sol
der and every deputy sheriff in North
Carolina. OF course, had President
Roosevelt sent troops into our state
then we would have had to throw up
our hands, as one state could not fight
the Union. But We should have ap-
pealed to the voters Of the country,
and / think they would have been
with us.
There is only one way with deal
ing with these railroads. The point
should be: Is railroad making
money, and how much is it making?
If it is making over a reasonable
profit then it should submit to a re-
duction in rates. The North Caro-
lima law permits the roads to make
10 per cent. That we know from our
investigation and their own reports
think that is a pretty good profit.
The law exempts roads under sixty
miles in length and roads in course
of construction.
Governor Glenn said that people
down in North Carolina had not begun
to get very excited over the next
presidential election.
I'VE will give 10000 plurality to the
Democratic candidate over President
Roosevelt, if need be-" he said.
We are for the man the Demo
cratic party nominates- 1 have re-
peatedly said that the time is not ripe
for the nomination of a Southern
Democrat for president. There are
! as fine men in the South as there are
on Gods footstool, but the old hue and
cry would be raised if one Of them
| got the nomination. Of that I am
sure. 1t is useless to talk about such
thing yet awhile. President Roose
welt is not as strong as he was, be-
cause of his centralizing policy, which
| is not popular in the South.

an experience last week that came near

them. and they told her that their par
ents couldn't buy them shoes, they were
so poor.
The charitably inclined young woman
first fitted them out with stockings and
then bought them three pairs of shoes.
The children started for home looking
very happy. The next day she met one
