After these discussions, etc, the
hostess cordially welcomed the ladies
into the dining-room. Here an elaborate
.four-course collation. was enjoyed. The
color scheme of the dining-room was
red and green which was quite in or
der for holiday COlors and the season
of the year. Most truly the leaves
have taken off their solid green dresses
or trimmed them with red. A very
striking picture was the table spread
with a pretty hemstitched cloth with
red and green candles and shades.
The tall vase of dark red roses amid
the ferns, upon a centerpiece whicn
was the handiwork of the hostess, was
charming.
Each of the visiting ladies made
nice talks, as did Rev. S. E Griggs,
who came in in time to partake Of the
hospitality of the hostess 1t was de-
cided that the F. ID. LIS would not

Uncle Peter Dent, as he was IA
miliarly known, died recently at Dick.
son, Tenn, at the advanced age Of 1O4
years. He was born in Virginia in
1903, but was brought to Tennessee by
his master when IA years of age. He
remained practically in the same To-
cality, in and around Dickson. for
80 years. He was a poet by nature.
The Muse of poetry dealt kindly with
this untutored child of song, as Is evi.
ience by the beautiful lays he sang
along the way and through the years
Of his long earthly pilgrimage. His
verse possesses a depth of thought
and construction that are truly re-
markable for an uneducated mind.
There is that rhythm to his song
that arouses the deepest onotions
there is that musical harmony that
sings itself into the soul and steals
7nes sympathies for the singer ere one
is aware; there is that pathos that soft
ems the heart and fills it with that fel
low-feeling which makes the whole
world akin. Someone has said that
poets are born, not made; il this Is
true, then Uncle Peter was a poet
born, and sang only as the Muse gave
him inspiration or the Tyre Of his soul
was touched to music by unseen an
gers Of angel hands.
Uncle" Peter DENT was remark
able old man, diamond in the rough
whose soul ever and anon would burst
forth into melody as sweetly sad and
nlaintive as Is found in the following
pathetic lines:
ao, , ss-Sc~
"Oh, mortal one, do pity me,
I'm old and weak and poor,
Wy days on earth are drawing nigh
When | shall beg no more.
God sends me in this humble way
| know not why 'tis so.
only know that where He wills
My weary feet must go
81 know that Jesus led the way
TO Calvary's thOrny crown
| know that | must follow these
Though sorrow weighs me down.
Perhaps God gives the wretched here
That he the faith may prove
OF favored ones who seek His love
And round His altars move
SO give, l pray what you can spare
I'm old and weak and poor;
Ny days are drawing to a close
When | shall ask no more"
Like the swan that sings its sweet
est song ere it dies, so did "Uncle"
Peter sing the above lay one OF his
last and sweetest, to his latest breath,
then passed to silence and pathetic
dust
These few lines are but a feeble trib-
ute TO the memory Of the humble sing
sr whose body lies in its wIndowless
oalaoe of rest, while his disemboded
soul, let us hone, is singing new
aHans Of JOY in the Elysian Realm of

CANTATA AT FISK DURING THE
HOLIDAYS.

There Is now in process Of pTepara-
ton a cantata Of Negro Folk songs,
which is to be rendered during the
Xmas holidays, at Fisk University.
Prof. j. w. Work has been planning
the material for five or SIN years and
has at last found an interesting story
of Negro slave life, and also folk
songs that tell this story. The differ
ent parts of the story were gathered
from those who were slaves and could
tell them authOritatively among whom
is Mrs. George w. Moore, who was
known among the original Fisk Jubi-
lee singers as ELLA Sheppard" The
cantata includes the old favOfites,
"Steal Away to Jesus Swing Low
Sweet Chariot" Couldn't Hear No
body Pray" Bright Sparkles in the
Church Yard" and the like. The or
igin Of some of these songs, which
alone would make an interesting story,
is also dealt with A very interesting
feature is the arrangement, also the
harmony of the songs wrought out by
| Mr.. f. j. Work, who is co-laborlng
with his brother. He has spent about
year in working out this part, and
has accomplished some pleasing as
well as some striking effects. Mr.
Work has recently studied harmony
with Clough Leighter, in Boston.
Among the songs is one original
chorus, composed on the principles of
the Folk songs, by Mr. f. J. Work
Another interesting feature is that
Mrs. Preston Taylor, known among
the original Jubilee Singers, as "Geor-
gia Gorden," is to assist in the rem
ditlon of this work.
Among the others who are to take
part is the company who represented
Fisk at the jamestown Exposition, So
curing a gold medal, and singing in
the East Room at the White House
for the President and his guests. Mrs
Mabel Iiadley who travelled with The
last company Of Jubilee Singers, who
toured the country in the interest oI
Fisk, and Mrs. Louisa Cameron, fol
a long time connected with the music
Of Fisk.
The Cantata consists Of solos, duets
chorusrs and obligatos with chorus
accompaniments. Mr.. Fred j. Worl
will be at the piano

Mr.. Hardin was about IS years old
and unmarried. The weapon used in
the killing was double barreled
shotgun, and the whole side of Har
din's head was blown off and he died
instantly.
From reports, 1t seems that young
Threadgill was out hunting when he
met Hardin, with whom he had pre-

standing The latter, 1t is said abused
the Young man and ran his hand in
his pocket, when the boy fired, with

COTTON MOVING SLOW.
Smaller Amount Than Usual Arriv-
ing at Galveston.

Galveston, Texas. Oct 1o--The
movement of cotton to Galveston Is
said by local freight men to be usu-
ally light for this time of the year.
Freight men who year ago at this
time were up to their elbows in work
and fretting over the congestion OF
cotton at this port are now men Of
leisure, comparatively speaking, and
| are worrying because OF the slow
movement. John Paul Jones. foreign
freight agent OF the Santa Fe. sai,
THAT conditions now are remarkable
in contrast to what they have bee
in the past years in October, AN
that no cotton at all. hardly, has be
gun to pass through Galveston. H
| attributes this to the fact that the
farmers made lots OF money last year
off their cotton and are this year
holding the product in the warehous-
es waiting for the price to reach sc.
