IN MEMORlAM

To my dear sister, Mrs. Mary A. Scruggs
who departed his life in Grenada, Miss.
Augusta, lW8.
Over the river they beckoned to her.
Loved ones who'd crossed 10 the other side,
Over the river. deaths dark. cold river,
To the fair vale OF Lire, she's swept the tide
Face to face she Is now with the Savior.
Closer and tenderer, the years will go on.
LIES sweetest songs are summOn'd by SOr-
Her richest blessings thru fire Oft come. lrOw
Pain touching her heart drew hidd'n treas

As love OF mother for child. deep and pure.
Ne'r reaches It's fullness OF wOndr'uS devO-
ton.
TIL suffering gives yearning solicitude.
From Gethsemane and Calvary come our
~re0emptiOn.
We reach Heaven only thru the Sons tears
and blood.
In dark days faith reaches its fullest cx-
preston,
And deluges our souls as a refining fool.
AS a rainbow Of light does her presence reach
earthward,
To draw all her dear and loved ones above;
Prayer opens to all the portals eternal,
To that beautiful home whose language IL
love.
The dark cloud Of grief which hangs over
AS the summer cloud floats over the field.
The Father we'll knows too much sunshine
will .wither
The fair fruit which patience and suffering
yield.
AS life fast moves on, the world seems much
Till only the star-beam OF faith is to us left;

Sometimes.

Sometimes the hasty word has been

to heaven and he "weeps DER her
bier'' he will remember it.
Sometimes the husband finds no
warm kiss Of affection and sweet
CHEEKY word Of welcome at the door
and fireside, when at nightlall he
comes home tired and weary and heart
heavy from toll which may have
yielded small return. 0. my friends,
how bright our homes ought to be!
Kind words, loving deeds and pure
affection should rule ia them. Are

From allurements abroad which just flatter
the eye,

While far distant in its sadness may roam,
And sing in sweet melody there was no
place like home"

IN OLD KENTUCKY.

It's up in old Kentucky
Where they never have the blues,
Where the captain kills the colonel
And the colonel kills the booze"
Where the horses they are pretty
And the women they are-tOO.
Where they shoot men just for pastime
When thare'S nothing else to do.
Where the blood it flows like water
And the bullets fly like hail,
Where every pistol has a pocket
And every coat it has a tail.
Where they always hang the jury
But they never hang the man.
Where you call a man a liar
And then, get home if you can.
There you 60 out in the morning
Just to give your health a chance.
And they bring you back at night
With the buckshot in your pants.
There the OWLS afraid to hOller
And the birds don't dare to sing,
For it's hi in "ole Kintuck"
There the shoot 'em ION the wing"

The Woman to Marry.

Is she not the very sparkle and sun
shine Of life?-a woman who is happy
because she can't help it-whoSe
smile ever the coolest sprinkle Of mis-
fortune cacnot dampen. Men make
a terrible mistake when they marry
for beauty, for talents, for style. The
sweetest wives are those who possess
the magic secret Of icing contented
under any circumstances. Rich or
poor, high or low, it makes no differ
ence: the bright little fountain Of JOY
bubbles up just as musically in their
hearts. DO they live in a log cabin:
The fire on the humble hearth be-
comes brighter than the gilded chan
delier in an Aladdin palace.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

A woman never loses faith in a
man unless he is to be trusted.
The usual way for a man to learn
how to propose to a girl is for her to
teach him.
The only difference between an old
fool and a young one is that the for.
mer has had the most practice.
The kind Of girl a mother picks cut
for her son to marry makes him want
to stay a bacnelOr.
A mean trick to play on a widow is
to expect her to remember that she
has eve had any experience with the
weak points of a man.-EX.

Be Useful.

DO not be ashamed nf doing the
smallest thing that is helpful to 9TH
ers. The opportunities for great use
fitness come rarely, but the smaller
things are always at hand and he who
does them constantly is IF great use,
and sometimes when the great OppOr-

has trained himself in the little
things that have come before who is
master of the situation. BE kind be
faithful, be true to all who have any

POINTED

It's as hard for a woman to keep
money as secrets.
Goodness between friends doesn't
count on hot days.
Nothing melts a dignified girl like
an unexpected kiss.
A boys appearance of .neeEness
may cover a lot of mischief.
Most people in love act as it were
delightful torture.
It's queer that a good fellow" so
often has SO many bad habits.
Run for Office if you would know
how many friends you haven't got

MOTION FOR NoNSUIT is
TAKEN UNDER ADJUSTMENT

Judge James of the superior court
yesterday took under advisement a
motion for a nonsuit in the case of j.
M. Dickinson against the Zubiate Min
ing company. a South Dakota corpora
ton, in which action Dickinson sought
to recover $500 which, he says, he paid
for 1000 shares of the company's stock,
with the agreement that if the prop
erty did not satisfy him the company
would return the money.
The mine is located in the state of
Sonora, Mexico, and the stock is said to
have been purchased in December,
1903. Dickinson says he proffered the
stock to the company in the following
January, but another agreement was
made whereby he paid an assessment
of 5000 and allowed the time in which
the company might take back the
stock to extend six months. In Sep
TENDER ne again asked for a return of
his money, which. he says, was re-
fused. Suit was filed in January last.
The company claims It had ceased
operation before the filing of the suit,
and contended that the court had no
jurisdiction in the matter Ten days
were given each side in which TO file
briefs.

JUDGE DECLARES N0NSUlT
IN FAVOR OF CORPORATION
Agrees Family of Injured Man Ought
to Be Provided For, but Victim
of Stump Hole Loses His
Damage Suit

In granting a motion for a nonsuit
in the case Of Henry Notthoff against
the Los Angeles Gas and Electric com
pany yesterday in which the plaintiff
asked for $4,000 on account of injuries
received in July last, when he fell into
a "sump hole filled with hot water
at the company's works, Judge Bord-
well took occasion to echo sentiments
recently expressed by President Roose-
Welt that some provision should be
made by employers whereby those de-
pendent on the wages of persons in
their employ should not suffer when
the head of a family is temporarily or
permanently injured.
The motion for a nonsuit was based
on the grounds that Notthoff held a
position similar to that of a foreman
and that it was his duty to see that
provision to prevent accidents should
have been made 1t also was shown
that there were two other ways in
which Notthoff could have reached the
machinery, and that he chose the thru
and most dangerous one, ana thus
showed contribut0ry negligence.
