to be botanlst and a naturalist, and
had secured temporary home at the
cabin of Saul Markham, For the last
two years Tilda had been down to
Nashville, "ben' sldlcated," as her
father and mother put 1t, and was now
teaching the dozen children of the
mountaineers in the log schoolhouse
which the young man had passed forty
rods before meeting her.
Tilda had come from mountaineer
stock. Her father was rough, uncouth
and ignorant. Her mother was un.
educated and plain. The girl had
lived in poverty, surrounded by pow.

figure and a handsome face, and the
time spent in the city had made, what

The stranger who goes among the
people of the southern mountains is
from the outset a suspected man, and
the first suspicion which rests on him
Is that he must be revenue spy.
Revenue men have raided and de-

MAYOR CALDWELL
 AT HIGH SCHOOL

Mayor J. l.. Caldwell gave an in- teresting talk at the Pine Bluff High school this morning at o'clock to nearly three hundred High School pu- pills. His subject was "The Elements of Character in the School Life That Are Essential in the Business Life.'' He divided his theme into six sub- topics as follows:
 Clear mental vision acquired by diligent study at school
 "Tenacity of purpose acquired by mastering difficult problems at school
 Fixed principles acquired by cul- tivating love, truth and virtue at school
 Supremacy of the spiritual and the animal acquired by proper proportion of study and sports
 symmetry of development acquir- ed by normal curriculum at school.
 Respect for authority and the rights of others acquired by relation to teachers and fellow pupils"

 Letter,

New Orleans, La.. March 11.-Cot- ton opened easier, owing to an indif- ferent Liverpool, where futures show a tendency to sag. The National Gin- ners report shows 12,716,000, eXclus- iev of linters, etc. The decline did not go very far, owing to the large discount of futures under spots and because leading long interests had to support the market professionally n self defense. According to New York opinions, the clique. however, is try ing to reduce the long holdings on every opportunity. The effect of bullish National Ginners figures, therefore, is very limited. There is nothing in prevailing weather condi- tions to call for special comment
 The spot market is quiet, some bus mess doing at quotations. Receipts are moderate, but not decreasing as fast as expected. Trading in futures settled around 10.55 for May, some buying for a short turn. It is a scalper's market.

 A petition is being Circulated by property owners in the district which is to soon to be annexed to the city by an ordinance recently adopted by the city council, opposing the move ment. The property owners in the county declare that the annexation ol their property to the city limits is un- just and that they will oppose the payment of city taxes in the courts, if the council insists upon extending the limits of the city so as to in- clude their property within them.
 A report comes from Columbus Miss, to the effect that man, SUD- posed to be the same thief who rob- bed several local dentists a few week: ago of more than $400 worth of gold filings, broke into dental offices there and stole gold and false teeth of sey- eral varieties. The burglaries were carried out in the same manner as those in Pin Bluff and dental offices only visited.

The great Sphinx OF Ghizeh bears
no inscription by which we can tell
Its date. In 1916 Ceviglia, who in
modern times was the nrst to clear
away the sand, found between it's
paws a STEELE Of the reign Of Thothmes
~, and. therefore, is was believed
that the Sphinx was carved by that
monarch. But in 1858 the excavation
OF Mariette uncovered a STEELE bear
ing the name Of Cheops, on which is
a reference to the Sphinx. The in
scription is evidently Of late per-
Tod but is supposed to be an exact
copy Of an ancient carving, and the
translation seemed to place the
Sphinx earlier than the Pyramids,
and consequently to prove it the most
ancient piece of work in the world.
Still there remained four lines carved
on the base which could not be read,
but NJ. Daressy has now deciphered
them, and it appears that the inscriD-
ton is in two parts. In the earlier
lines there is no mention OF the
Sphinx, but the lines which date from
the Persian occupation mention the
repair OF the Sphinx There is, there
fore, nothing by which We can tell
the date of the monument, and the
only evidence we have Is the head
dress OF the Colossus. It's hood is
ornamented behind with three bands,
a large one between two smaller
bands. Now this is fashion which
only existed toward the end Of the
twelfth dynasty in the reigns Of Usur-
tesen III. and Amenemhat III. AS this
family showed much zeal for the god
Harmaklin, whose portrait the Sphinx
is. 1t is probable that the monument
is the work of Amenemhet III.-LOn-

An Uncertain Obituary.

A Georgia man wrote the following
on an oak slab which marks a sup.
posed grave in a meadow: This spot
is sacred to the memory of faithful
animal, a white mule, born ten years
before the Civil War and went through
that war on a rush from Bull Run to
Lees surrender. We amt certain that
the mule died here, but when last seen
the faithful critter was grazing on
this identical spot and trying to kick
a lightning flash back to the clouds. "
