Careless.

During the financial dog days
of a southern college wealthy
merchant called upon the preident
to say that he had provided IN
his will for a rather handsome
bequest to the college, to be paid
after the death of himself and
wife. The president was over
ioyed, and asked permission to
announce the gift in the city pa.
per. This request was granted
on condition thatthe donors name
should not be mentioned.
Accordingly the president
wrote eulogistic notice of the
donation and hurried to the news
paper office. In his haste he neg
lected to give his item a title.
The editor, hurried and worried,
absently clapped on the first
words that came to his mind;
and the item appeared the next
morning with the following cap

How He Slept.

Ex-senator Billy Mason tells
of a political campaign in South
Dakota wherein he had been
called upon by the state commit,
tee to take a part. When Mason
arrived at his first town, where
he was to deliver a speech the
next day. he found that the two
so-called hotels were crowded to
the doors.
Not having telegraphed for ac-
commodations, the Illinois man
discovered that he would have to
make shift the best he could.
He was compelled for that
night to sleep on a wire cot that
had only some blankets and a
sheet on. AS Mr.. Mason is a
man of considerable avoirdupois,
he found his improvised bed
anything but comfortable.
"Well," asked the proprietor,
when the politician appeared in
the morning. ';how did you

The TINES will be making enemies by
unloading itself Of the barnacles that

people on its lists, but what it will have
will be the debt-paying class who after

The meeting called by President
Hodge of the Cotton Association was
slimlv attended last Saturday. Their" is
only a spark of interest manifested,
whether it is because of . good price
proSpect. or general Indifference we
cannot Say, but the fact remains, that
neither farmer Or merchant is taking
the active interest in the association
he should, another fact is quite ap-
parent, the county is not organized:
President Hodge has done all mortal
man can do to arouse the farmers
but his efforts have proven futile.
He holds right on with a commendable
zeal hoping against hope that the peo-
pie will see the good OF the organiza-
ton. II was the concensus of opinion
at the meeting, that the crop has been
greatly injured by the excessive rains,
and the per centage will not fall short
of 25 per cent.
