The Way of June
By H. NJ. Ayres.


Poincianas flaming beside the
Long, twilghts, then splendid moon
Days filed with longing and lyric nights with loving
That's the way
Wealth of starry blossoms and subtle nighan
Borne upon the wind which afternoon
And all day long the oceans eeaseless calling
That's the way of
Tasks which lie lightly, all the tripping
To the magic melody of Natures mystic tune
The flowers will fade the year grow old so quickly
That TIE way June
Stabeams on the waternot brighter than black
Wtehing wells of tenderness mirroring the
The years before and after with golden present
That's the of June

hear news from San Francisco in re-
gard TO the arrival of the Togo Kisen
kaisha:s new steamship Tenyo Maru.
which sailed at $3.50 o'clock on We'd
nesday afternoon. expecting to break
all records for travelling between this
port and the Golden Gate. The cabIed
report of her arrival should reach here
this afternoon at the latest. The prob
abilities are that she will pick up her
pilot early this morning and that her
time Will be in the neighborhood of
70 II and a half days. Early tomor-
row morning the Alameda, which left
mere five hours ahead OF the japanese
boat Will reach San Francisco, and
tomorrow afternoon the Lurline will
MAKE that port. The Tenyo passed the
Lurline at $3.50 Friday evening and
probably overhauIed the Alameda some
time Saturday or yesterday morning.
WORKING ON WRECKED DRYDocK
Divers We're at work yesterday on
the wrecked marine railway, wrecked
on Saturday as the result of the break
ing of chains used to haul up the
cradle while the steamer Mauna Kea
was being berthed for a scraUng 1t
will be expensive work to put the
marine railway in proper shape and
shipping will feel the effect of the
drydock's crippled condition for few
days. The Mauna Kea. which very
much needs TO have the seagrowths
removed from her shell, will not now
be able TO take a scraping until after
the trip following the run she starts
on tomorrow. She returns from Hilo
and way ports on Friday morning next
and has then TO immediately prepare
for the Fourth of July excursion, re-
turning from which she must hurry
out again on her regular business.
Her bewhiskered hull will affect,
slightly, the speed she makes.

WRECKAcE AFLoAT.

PORTLAND, June 13.-Remnants of
a shipwreck suggesting that disaster
had overtaken a crew of unfortunate
mariners were sighted in the South Pa
cific near Cape Horn by the French
bark vendee, Captain Rigot, arriving
from Newcastle on-Tyne via san Fran
cisco. Standing high out of the water,
with rigging attached, was a steel
mast that came from some windjam-
mer. The wreckage was passed in the
evening late in February.
There We're no signs of life on the
4derelict," says Captain Rigot, land I
did not stop to make a close investiga-
ton. But 1 could plainly see that no
pne could possibly have survived out
there, as the wreckage was moscly sub
merged except the mast and part of
the rigging. 1t does not necessarily
mean that a ship was lost. although
that may prove TO be the case. Seeing
that his vessel was in a bad way
and about to turn turtle. the captain
may have ordered the mast and rigging
cut away. That often happens and the
ship manages to reach port in safety"

BETTER CLEAN UP
YOUR PREMISES
You Will Find II Cheaper Than
Paying Fines.

Mayor Donneli has had sew
eral people before him already
for not complying with his order
recently issued to Clean Up and
he is imposing fines upon them.
Policeman Morton who is MAX
ing inspections is doing his full
duty in making arrests where it
IS found that.the people are not
complying with the order. and
Mayor Donnell is doing his duty
by putting b finishing
touches on them when brought
before him.
If your premises are not in a
good sanitary condition it will
pay to make them so at once and
keep them 50.
The officials are determined to
break up every filth hole in the
cit, whether they be residences
or places of business and the

Which do you prefer? To plant
your present acreage and get z
TO s cents per pound or reduce
it and get IL to II cents and pos
sibly higher. The present con-
templated acreage and good
weather means . return TO the
old days of cheap cotton Of ten
years age while a reduced acre
age means a continuance of the
prosperity Of the past few years.
Let every planter that reads
this at once make up his mind
that he will not be the cause Of
Wall Street Bears fixing ths
price for your crop as they will
do with a large crop. Go to work
at once to reduce your own acre

ter as this is the only way we
can be independent and prospe-

Iy Twelve Hours Aceompan-
led by Thunder and

The heaviest rain of the sea-
son and probably the heaviest of
many seasons began falling
shortly after midnight Monday

hours without a single cessation,
during all of which time heavy
thunder and sharp peals of light

The train on the Southern
Railway which left here at z
O'Clock a. m. Tuesday was turn
ed back at Winona ON account
of a 1900 fit washout at Big Sand

and it is quite probable they will

the Guest of Mr.. Charles

Cayce and Walter Weaver ex-
pressive of the pleasure it afford
ed the people of Columbus TO
meet the visitors and of the pros
poets of the early completion of
the road. Mr.. III. J. Jennings,
vice-president, responded very
gracefully and President Rey-
nolds assured the crowd that
trains would be in operation on
a strictly first class road bed be-
fore the beginning of the new
year.
All Of the contractors are men
of wide experience in railroad
building and they are men whose
words are recognized by the peo-
pie putting up the money. The
Messrs. Peters, the General Con
tractors are under a bond o1
$3.50, 600. to have the work com
pleted by the 31st day of Decem

NATIONAL GINk8 ASSTN.
THROUGH ITS PRESIDENT
Issues a Strong and Sensi-
BILE Appeal to the Farmers
of the South
To The COTTON PLANTERS:

To THE COTTON PLANTERS:
/ have received 50 many letters
my efforts for a re-
duction in acreage from nearly
every section of the South that |
have decided to continue the
work and by request write ano-
ther article on similar lines that
will be carried by the Southern
weekly papers all during this
month SO that every planter will
have a chance to read it. Cotton
for October delivery sold this
week at eight cents per pound.
Can you produce it at a profit at
this price? No. Then in order
to get profit on what you raise
this season you must plant less
than you intended planting at
first. Report on the acreage is
sued s. far show that the acreage
will be about A per cent. larger
than last year. This is probably
due to the new farmers that have
settled in Oklahoma and West
Texas putting in so much new
land. We must more than offset
this increase by reducing in the
rest of the belt
| again state that the main
cause for the decline in prices is
lack of confidence caused by the
fear of a large acreage which
means, with good weather con.
ditions, a large crop and ever
lower prices than at present. Dc
you want 10 grow a croc at ar
actual loss2 II not reduce your
acreage, then ii your neighboI
persists in planting a large acre
age and you have To sell you
crop at a loss you lose less thar
he. If by reducing you ado
$500, 100000 to the wealth Of tn
South you VII not only receiv
part of this but you can fee
| that you did your part to add Il
the prosperity. OF the country
Is it good business to plant
crop where there IS no profit il
lit? No Then / t every reader a

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the
cause of disease, and that is why
the cures are always lasting
This remedy strengthens and
tones up the kidneys, helping
them to drive out Of the body the
liquid poisons that cause back
ache, headache and distressing
kidney and urinary complain IS.
Columbus people testify to per-
manent cures.
Mrs. F. A Gunter, living at
405 S. 10th ST.. Columbus, Miss,
says; We have known and have
been great appreciators Of Doans
Kidney Pills for some time They
were first brought to our notice
about three years ago and proved
very beneficial in both Mr.. Gun
ter's case and my own. My back
was weak and there was a dull
heavy feeling present all the
time. Some times dull aching
changed to sharp shooting tWing-
es which added greatly to my
misery. That my kidneys were
disordered was shown by the lack
of control over the secretions.
Reading abb ut Doan's Kidney
Pills, | was induced to try them.
and procured a box at Mayo and
lWeaver's drug store. They helped
me from the first, and in a short
time was completely free from
the trouble. Mr.. Gunter also useo
them for similar case of kidney
complaint and the results he re
4 ceived were gratifying
