Dixon May Try Acting.

Thomas Dixon, Jr., author of
the famous Reconstruction trilogy
1.-The Leopard's Spots" "The
Clansman' and the "Traitor" has
been infected with the acting mi
crobe and he has about made up
his mind to play the role of Dan
Wylie, a mountaineer member of
the Klu Klux Khan in ''The Trait
orr the dramatic sequel to the
"Clansman." Mr.. Dixon's his
trionic aspirations began during
his college days iu North Carolina
but like Charles Dickens, he has
heretofore confined his efforts in
that direction to amateur affairs.
AS a preacher and lecturer Mr..
Dixon was supremely successful
SO that it would be no novelty to
him to face al audience over the
footlights.
The character which has appeal
ed 50 strongly to Mr.. Dixon is one
of the most interesting in the new
play. In fact it is absolutely
unique in being a type never be-
fore presented on the stage. There
is no %gainsaying the fact that Mr..
Dixon is physically the exact en-
bodiment of this character and
as his early youth was spent in the
mountains of North Carolina his
Interpretation of the role should
be faithfully realistic.

In MemOridm,

1t IL with sincere regret that we
chronicle the death of little Victor
Birdsong, the little four year old child
OF DIR. and Mrs. II. Il, Birdsong. On
Dec. 4th, as God was closing the day,
He claimed as His own this little boy
whose life had been a blessing to us all.
Amid silence and the decaying leaves of
winter, he passed from our world to a
better one, all unconscious of the
beauty without. Like a weary child
with a faint sigh of relief, he sank into
a beautiful sleep. Those who were
thrown with him, as he moved amidst
his fellow pIaymates so faithfully per-
forming his little duties, respected and
admired his character, but it was those
to whom the privilege Of koowing him
best was granted, who loved him most.
Grateful as we are for what he did, We
are more grateful for what he was, and
our sorrow for his loss is tempered with
gratitude for q life so noble, SO pure, so
innocent, and so helpful. We would
gladly offer consolation to the bereaved
ones If we could give it, but we are UNI
able, for the mystery of sorrow, the be-
w%ilderment 1t causes, the silence that
Is the only answer to our call for help,
the tumult of emotion, and the duh de-
SPAR, all mist com and go. We would
remind them that the strong note Of
faith and hope sets n soothing solace
vibrating In the mourner's heart. The
mystery is not solved, but the silence
is broken; we first listen to the sad
sobs of the bereaved ones,--then we
listen to the same song in our W
h~earts-the same, for it is God who has
sung them and who sings to us. And
when tho bereaved mes have found
God, they have found light in their
darkness, peace in their tempest, and a
ray in their night. Let them remember
that.
"The child who enters life comes not
with knowledge or intent,
So those who enter death must go as
little children sent.
Nothing is known, but | believe that
God is overhead;
And as life is to the living, so death
is to the dead"

crate army as a private in the 18th Mis-
sissippi regiment aud rose to rank of

Mrs. Williamson who preceded him
but a short time to the grave was Miss
Mollie White. Her first husband was
Lieutenant Howze who was killed at the
battle Of Gettysburg, leaving a little
hoy, Arthur Howe, who died in winona,
esteemed and beloved by all who knew
him and whose widow is one Of our
most estimable and accomplished ladies'.
Judge Williamson had been for more
than forty years a jealous and exem-
plary member Of the Baptist church,.

HUMAN RACE AFFLICTED
WITH QUEER DISEASE
Cooper Says Internal Parasites Cause Much
Suffering Everywhere.

Contrary to general belief. the apL
petite is not greatly i~ncreased-it only
becomes irregular. There Is = general
feeling of faintness, however. and =
gnawing sensation In the pit Of the
stomach.
People afflicted with M Of these
parasites are nervous and depressed.
Their chief sensation is n Of Ian
guor, and they tire very easily. Lack
Of energy and ambition affect the body.
and the mind becomes dull and slug
gish. The memory becomes not q
good, and the eyesight is generally
poorer.

ach and bowels Of all impurities, seems
to be fatal to these great worms, and

cause for alarm in the matter, and
